Sorry, I don't know Macs, so I can't help with detailed troubleshooting. Two things to check and report as a starting point for someone else: (1) Are you closing GC from the GC window, as opposed to using some sort of operating-system feature to close it? (2) Does the last-modified date on your .gcm file change when you close GC?
