I just upgraded to OS 9.1 and I still have CarbonLib 1.2.5. I go to
apples site and try to download CarbonLib 1.3.1 or 1.4 and neither one
seems to give me an option to download. Is anyone else having this
problem?

CarbonLib 1.3.1 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120017
CarbonLib 1.4 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120047

Apple recently changed their web support system.  Unfortunately their
"improvements" broke it completely (it was never good or fast IMO).  The
quickest way to get an updated CarbonLib (if it isn't available via the
Software update control panel) is to just download the CarbonLib 1.4 SDK
from the developer website at < http://developer.apple.com/sdk/index.html>.

I know how inconvenient and unnecessary it is to download all the stuff you
don't need in there, but that is the only other way I know to get any
software from Apple right now.

The obvious solution is to complain to whatever Apple webmaster email
address they have and hope that it will ever get fixed, perhaps, if Steve
Jobs wants it to get fixed that is...

Thank, I got it. Now I have to work on getting 3.5 to run without crashing. (I
think it might be a memory issue at this point, I'm not sure.)
