It's possible that the .ID format may have changed. If you can share your dataset then I could have a look and see if the new format could be supported. Actually, if you could file a bug at http://bugzilla.maptools.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MITAB and attach a sample dataset to the bug that would be even better.
