any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this issue?
There is a shareware application called FileTyper that you can use to change
the PC format icm into a mac format icm file. You will need to change the
Type field and Created by field. This will change the format so that
your Mac will recognise the files correctly. If you cant find the
download, let me know and I can e-mail it to you directly.
