I have Mac Poser 6 with CU1 and SR1 loaded, and when I use the base install, everything seems to be operational, but when I transfer my older runtime (28.7GB) and then start Poser, the library menu and the figure menu show my folder structure in the various menu positions instead of the figure menu items (eyes, fingers etc). The Library Palette Subcategory Pop-up Menu shows the proper menu structure through the Pose menu items, and then the Pose and the Props menus are truncated, with the wrong items in them, and the figure menu whether opened from the document window or from the Parameters/Properties palette shows my runtime library menu structure not the body parts (or scene props etc) as it should. Needless to say this makes figure manipulation virtually impossible. I read the SR1 ReadMe, and it said something about:

• Runtime folders with large amount of subfolders do not disable popup menus any more (Mac OS X only)

But I find that I have the problem now and I don't know whether my runtime exceeds their improved limits, or if there is some other problem. Whatever help the community can provide is appreciated.

I'm not sure that I understood right, but have you tried linking to your old runtime instead of transferring it? You move up in any library until you see the folders Poser6 and Downloads, and then you can add a runtime. It's described on pages 85-86 in the Reference manual.

First, I didn't copy the old over the new, I copied the new over the old. So any new system type files were the current files after the merge. For the content, any content that was duplicated was the new stuff, so any content was either new or not from the old base install. Second, strictly as an academic exercise, I used my pristine CU1 and SR1 updated Poser and linked to the other folder's runtime, and after switching to the old runtime from within Poser, I was still getting the same types of errors. Thanks for the input, but unfortunately the linking versus copying issue didn't change things.

I have also had this issue. I do not know if SR1 really addressed the issu or not. It does not matter if you have the big runtime in another folder, or your main runtime. When you switch to the complex folder, it happens. While waiting for SR1, I broke my runtimes down into several different folders. It works, but it is a pain switching back and forth. I was going to try going back to one runtime, but your experience tells me to stick with my multiple runtimes.
