ArchiCAD Fontographer conflict?

Just curious.

Is anyone out there running Fontographer 5 and ArchiCAD (especially AC12 but I also noticed this in AC 11) at the same time on a mac with success?

I tried a demo of Fontographer 5 last night and it seems to have fried ArchiCAD (The orbit command made things pan, the pan command made things orbit and would not quit, placing object or elements could not be done via mouse....) I could not work this morning until I removed Fontographer completely, and cleaned up my preferences (I also tried AC 11 which had the same issues, new and restart, dumping AC preference files, standard profiles as opposed to my custom ones, etc. all to no avail).

Since I had some time tonight, I tried reinstalling and have no issues. I have no idea what happened this morning.

Its a program for producing digital fonts, a side interest.
