[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Reminder to synchronize ... window is blocking synchronization - OS X

[Patricia Warwick]

That may work but it isn't an elegant solution ... I still have to  
realize that there is this hidden window. The problem seems to be  
Missing Sync's ... shouldn't it be bringing that window to the front?  
I tried using the Window menu and it wasn't there ... so it requires  
guessing ... "ah ha ... I can't sync again ... perhaps that darn  
message is causing problems." IMO, I don't think it should block  
syncing. I guess I'll have to report a bug.

And on a related subject. Why do I always have to click at least  
twice on the Missing Sync icon in the dock to get it to start and  
stay active?
