Hi Evgeniy, Thanks for your advice!
I was, however, only semi-successful. Several re-installation and version changing attempts on Win8 were fruitless and now I', running Osmosis on Mac without problems... Took me literally 30 seconds to set up. I would be interested if others have solved it on Windows or know about a solution on the way?
