The usual resolution is to try a restart until the Core will turn on. If it won't start right away after a reboot. Issues with getting the Core running are irritating, but I've learned a few things. Incidentally, the Core has bestowed upon me 3 or 4 corrupt databases to this point. It's not necessary to have Fusion2 (the app part) running, but you do want to make sure the Core is running.

Fusion supports XPress 7.5 max. ![]() By that statement I assume QuarkXPress 8.5 and Suitcase Fusion. Did you check system requirements?
