Got the following when my wife, tried to run MJ 8.0.218 for the first time:
1st: The "Import media files" dialog box displays, then
"Critical Error: Media Jukebox failed to open the database file 'playlistx.jmd' for saving (a file coule be read-only or corrupt)"
If I click Cancel, the message disappears, but then reappears in about 5 seconds.

The "coule" is mis-spelled in the dialog box. (Not my typo)

She and I both have admin rights to the box, so the file permissions are not an issue.
I did the original install under my ID.

Eie you install Meeia Jukebox loggee in uneer her account?

Ane ever notice that the 'e' key is too close to the 'd'

No, I didn't install MJ when logged in as her.
I wanted to see if there where any other suggestions before I did that..

If this is the case, then the install process may need to indicate that MJ needs to be "re-installed" for each user.

[Matt]

Try it and let us know.

And you're right about the multi-user stuff, but it's sort of a tricky one.  Some people want very user-specific installs, and others want system-specific.  Maybe 9.0 can make it an option...

Thanks for your help.

That did the "trick". Now both logon ID's can play/use MJ8.

Another "oddity" I have to install plug-ins on a per-user basis. Example: I installed the HTML Interface on my wife's logon ID, then I logged on and no HTML Interface..

Had to do the same for the Sleep Timer and DFX plugins..
