Hello Georgina: Okay...so how do I run Switch as Admin?" The file in question is not a commercial ffile...rather...a recording I made of myself; the file comes from Voice Memos, which is an app on the IPhone." As I mentioned before, I've ran this program (not the same one I downloaded) but I have a version of Switch on the old machine; never have had this problem! Tom Kaufman
