Select the file and press Command-I to get the Info window -- that
should reveal the version number.  You can also open the Extensions
window and then pick 'View Options' from the Finder's View menu.
Check the 'version' checkbox and the window will show all versions
for all files.

Re: the 1.4 extension -- that was a problem when accessing mixedd
mode CD-ROMs.  Aren't you confusing 2 different problems (see FAQ
18.15)?

I think my CD IS a mixed mode one, although I'm not exactly sure what is
meant by that - it has files for other formats, eg Kontakt and HALion as
well as samples in both aif and wav form. Does this make it mixed mode?
Anyway, thanks to you I discovered that the DVD/CD extension that I have is
1.4.7 so wouldn't mind trying to change that as I'm running out of other
ideas as to what the problem could be.
Should I just get that off an OS 9 systems disk? Any other ideas as to what
it should be? Is it worth reinstalling the ESX?

Thanks for your help
