Re: List Running apps and windows

I have implemented this code:
   if(!AXAPIEnabled ())
   {
       NSLog(@"API not enabled");
       return;
   }
   if(!AXIsProcessTrusted ())
   {
       NSLog(@"PROCESS not trusted");
   }
And it enters the second if, so my app is not trusted. I have tried using
AXMakeProcessTrusted((CFStringRef)path);
But it wont do anything, no matter if I relaunch or not.
Guesses?
