No "Help" for Retrospect 4.2 David Converse notes that the online Help no longer works in Retrospect 4.2. He adds: "Dantz Technical Support confirms that the update was released prior to documentation being complete. They will post an updated Help file for download soon."

OneClick install error Two readers (Alemany Home and Jeff Langston ) report that they could not get the new OneClick 2.0 updater to work. In both cases, it gave a message that said: "An error prevented the update from completing. Resource has been modified." Jeff wonders whether Font First Aid might have modified the program and that this is the cause of the problem.

Update: John Cytron writes: "I ran into the same problem quoted below, because I downloaded the update early on Oct 27. Later that evening, in response to my email and others, Westcode revised the installer which now works great. The problem with the earlier version of the update installer was indeed that it did not ignore the effect of changes made by Apple's Font First Aid."

SmartWrap bugs? A reader states that the SmartWrap 1.5 plug in is not compatible with Eudora Pro 3.0. Mike Surbrook found that SmartWrap 1.5 would not work with BBEdit 4.6, causing BBEdit to crash.
