Hi Jonathan, Well, I will check again tomorrow when I am able to use the Mac. In the meantime, I upgraded to 12.1 a long time ago I didn’t encounter this problem until this week. I then upgraded to 12.2 of Monterey and everything was working for a couple of days, and then again it stopped working. There must be something related to my system that is causing this. Thanks. Best regards, Les
