Addison-Wesley (really Kellerman and Smith, the authors of the program)
have acknowledged this bug and registered users of TeXtures 1.0 can
obtain an upgrade to 1.01 which fixes this problem, along with adding
background typesetting capability under multifinder. Apparently you can
either switch to another program or continue editing in TeXtures while
the typesetting is going on. I think the upgrade costs about $25. In the 
meantime, the above workaround is recommended by AW.
