Thank you! That confirms what I expected, and it makes sense that the latest version of software would be needed to work. The catch for me is that if I update my Mac OS I will lose the use of a couple of important and expensive to replace pieces of software, so for me the tradeoff is not worth it.

Could you point me to an instruction source or explain a little about how to save to disk and then copy to PW, as I don't understand how that is done? A viable workaround like that would be great as I could make the new PW work -- otherwise I'm going to have to return it.

Thanks again for your help!
