[solved] HDR crash / Mxs Obsolete or corrupt

2 things

On the Mac
When I open an HDR file (wich worked fine in previous versions) into "ENVIRONMENT SETTINGS" - "IMAGE BASED" the application crashes. This doesn't happen when I open an MXS file with HDR files already placed into it.

ALSO

When I open an older MXS file with the new version on my Mac I get the message "Corrupted Mxs - This mxs is obsolete or has been corrupted". What I do to go around this is I transfer the file to Windows, open it in Maxwell windows platform (1.7.1 as well) and resave it. I transfer the file back to the Mac. Then and only then I can open it.

SETUP
MAC OSX 10.5.4 intel core 2 duo 2gb updated to the fullest
Maxwell 1.7.1 cleanly installed

Thanks

This post helped me pinpoint the problem... file permission issue.
