I think he's got it! The AW 6.2.7 says on the disc compatible for both systems 9.2 and OSX however somewhere in the back of my mind there was a comment before your's about the non compatiblity of the two versions. Now if I find a 6.2.5 version (and I suspect it is only on the master install disc) will programs which I have saved under OS9.2, using 6.2.7, will these programs be backwards compatible and moreso how does one make sure the iBook doesn't go searching for AW 6.2.7? I guess I could erase all of the AW files on the hard drive having to do with either program and start fresh; however having been down that bumpy road in the past, makes me want to take this real easy. If am in OS9.2 does the computer go searching in OS X for the program or does it go searching in 9? There is nothing on the five install discs(two iBook install) three iBook Restore (suspect these are the OS 9.2 discs ) IN any event shall try and do a download of 6.2.Five... Personally prefered five but there you are...
