To test Christian’s theory, I needed to shut down DEVONthink on the Mac that I didn’t have physical access to for the immediate future. It’s not the most elegant solution, but although I don’t have any remote access software on the other computer, my Keyboard Maestro macros sync between Macs. So I made a Keyboard Maestro macro with an “if” condition being the name of that other Mac. The action in Keyboard Maestro was to shut down DEVONthink. And then I just made a time trigger of a couple minutes ahead of the current time for that action to run. At the set time, that Mac passed the “if” test, then ran the action to shut down DEVONthink. Hopefully that makes sense.
(Technically, I haven’t been able to see that Mac in person yet to confirm that this all worked, but it was just after running that macro that my glitches went away)
