Hi, thank you for your reply.
OK, I did what you said, and it said "getting" for a while, which eventually turned into "!". As before, the files are there, but evidently not quite right in some way. The reference page is still accessed online. I think if I tick the "Check for and install updates automatically", it's going to be downloading constantly.

Ian.
