This might help some even though it isn't specific with regard to some old software which hasn't move with the times. If you use MT-NW, you will lose it. < http://www.macworld.com/article/2056564/how-to-install-mavericks-over-leopard.html > I just made that leap from OSX 10.6.8 SL, yesterday skipping both Lion & ML. All went surprisingly smoothly with the 5+GB download in 40-45 minutes and about 35 minutes to complete the install. There were some losses, but nothing insurmountable, mostly stuff like MS Office X. The change in Mail makes it somewhat different, but not intolerable. Safari seems to be running faster & smoother now. I was also very comfortable with "OpenSpaces" in SL and I will miss it. Over time I should get just as comfortable with the way Mavericks deals with the workspace. -- Regards, Savageduck
