Hi, chris!

If you don't mind, would you be so kind on elaborating how to properly update to 1.0.1? Quoting your remark at Macintosh Garden:

Quote
If installing the 1.0.1 update, after previously installing v1.0 you most likely will have to erase the extensions from the system folder as these files dont seem to be removed or overwritten properly when installing the 1.0.1 update.

We are basically referring to three extensions, right? Here are the differences between 1.0 and 1.0.1:

Reason Engine 1.0 (build 78) --> Reason Engine 1.0.1 (build 92)
ReWire 2.0.5 Version 1.2.5 (build 52) --> ReWire 2.2 Version 1.4 (build 60)
REX Shared Library (ReCycle) 2.0.0 Version 1.1.1 (build 17) --> REX Shared Library (ReCycle) 2.0.0 Version 1.2.1 (build 37)

So, just like you said, if one applies the patch to 1.0.1, the extensions at the system folder won't be overwritten.
That said, I deleted the aforementioned files from my Extensions folder and re-applied the patch. After that, the extensions were finally updated. But, at least in my case, whenever I try to run Reason 1.0.1 my computer freezes!
I tried to run the "patched" extensions on OS 8.6 and OS 9.2 and no luck... the system just freezes.
So, I had to revert to the old extensions to "fix" the program again. It runs fine, but the application version is naturally still 1.0 build 78.

Any idea on what I'm doing wrong?
