In resetting User Prefs due to permissions issues I also deleted Text Sniper prefs. Now I can't reinstall it without emailing the developer, even though I have the original DMG and purchase receipt. Website offers no support for this issue. Poor support from developer.

Not quite sure how I feel about this company. I bought the product, thinking it had great promise. Found an issue and emailed them. NEVER RECEIVED A RESPONSE OR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. I'm not sure if I want to support a company that doesn't respond to its customers. I'm hoping someone working there has an explanation.
