Sadly, I upgraded both my Mac Pro and my Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard. Once this was done only two apps didn't work just fine. Calibre and a news ticker called NewsTicker

This saddens me greatly since I used the news fetch all the time. I have installed calibre 6.10 on my WindowsXP Parallels VM and pointed it towards my Mac library and all seems to work OK but it crashes there every once in a while also. It won't run at all under SL.

Any way to make the Windows version work with that CrossOver thing?

I do still have a bootable leopard backup on my Drobo for my laptop. There are work arounds but truly a pain.

Your efforts to fix this Kovil will be greatly appreciated.
