My husband who "meatgrindered" his ebook one week before me successfully suggested I use our new iMac to submit (which is what he did).

So I re-submitted my ebook to Smashwords yesterday using our new machine and wait to see what the Apple store does with it. Apparently using Word on different Macs of different vintages (which is what I did) can be the culprit.
Rats! Apple should know better than to manufacture machines that still work eons later [such as our dinky little Macintosh SE!]...

I thought all had gone well the first time -- but no, Apple store was the wall I hit with the EPubCheck -- so it may be a waiting game.
I have downloaded Calibre and have that as my Plan B plus all the other suggestions.
