Thanks Randy, Esther, and Chuck, I now have it working, though after what amounted to three installs I could have sure done a lot of copying and deleting and saved the five bucks :)
I initially attempted to follow Esther's instructions, but cut had no affect. I then hid MoveAddict from both the doc and status menu. This apparently caused a warning to display which precluded going into the dialog. I tried rebooting, to no avail. I then tried the suggestion I received from the support group, which was to launch the terminal app and enter: "defaults delete com.kapeli.moveaddict". This time it appeared to be successful (without any additional parms) since it was necessary to reenter my registration. I then took the following steps over both "unknown" fields: 1. Interact: 2. Even though Mouse is configured to follow VO I pressed vo-command-f5 for good measure. 3. Confirmed that the mouse was in the field (vo-f5). 4. Press the desired shortcut key (i.g. command-x for cut). 5. Stop interacting. As Chuck observed, the fields still show "unknown", but I am now able to cut/paste. Best regards.
