I'm not trying to lay blame or trumpet success, only trying to help Steven
Folberg, to diagnose his problems. And if something doesn't work you usually
assume that It was not installed properly or something else has disrupted
that. This is not for me or anyone else to diagnose, as we aren't at the
computer that has the problem. I just hope that whatever we discuss about
Steve F's problem helps him find the problem. And usually in my experience
all the little fiddling around with moving stuff, around has taken much
longer than a clean install.
BY the Way Steve F? Hows it goin? Did you solve the problem??

Hi Steve,
SF>>>>> If I launch Miami after a cold boot of my Amiga (towered A1200,
SF>>>>> with '060 CPU) and try to immediately go online, one of three
SF>>>>> things happens:
SF>>>>>
SF>>>>> 1) Miami searches for IP addresses for several seconds, then
SF>>>>> hangs.
SF>>>>>
SF>>>>> 2) Miami (or Miami Downtown) gurus immediately.
SF>>>>>
SF>>>>> 3) Miami appears to go online fine, but the next program I launch
SF>>>>> (e.g., YAM or Voyager or AWeb) crashes Miami!
SF>>>>>
SF>>>>> My workaround, after many days of hair pulling: for some bizarre
SF>>>>> reason, if I launch YAM first after a cold boot, and then launch
SF>>>>> Miami and go online, everything is fine. Miami is rock solid and
SF>>>>> performs flawlessly. I can even repeatedly go online and offline
SF>>>>> with no trouble!

It's probably easiest to just look in the YAM and Miami directories for
MUI files. Then put them where they're supposed to be: MUI:Libs/MUI
YAM shouldn't have any MUI files within the YAM directories.
The only MUI files within in Miami aren't MUI MCCs, but the MiamiGUIs:
Miami:Libs/MUI.MiamiDxGui (for MiamiDx)
Miami:Libs/MUI.MIamiGui (for the MUI GUI for Miami)
Miami:Libs/MUI.MiamiToolsGui (for the MUI GUI for Miami)
Miami:Libs/MUIMWB.MiamiGui (for the Magic Workbench looking MUI GUI for
Miami).
