You may have something running that conflicts with the sony software and as a different users, that programs won't be running. Just one more idea...good luck.

I tried it as-is on another account on the same machine; it didn't work. Will try installing with that account and see if it works that way in a little bit.

Status Update: that did it! It works! WOOHOO!
Now to see what I can get this to do I am quite aware it won't work with my PRS-500 directly, but could it manage my memory stick books?...

Well, at least I'm not alone
Try RandallFlagg's idea - it worked here - no idea why my main account displayed such abberant behaviour..

Can you create a new user account on your Mac. Log into that account and then try to install it. See if it works there.

You'd think so, wouldn't you?
Then I tried it. No go. Guess they haven't ported the PRS-500 code to x64 (still). Will consider putting it on my 32 bit laptop at this rate..
