Gents - thanks a thousand thanks! I pray God blesses you for blessing me in this way!

As a resource for others crossing this same bridge, here's what I did:

a. locate the old .not file in the program files of my old e-Sword (version 8) on the PC
b. download the above mentioned converter
c. convert the old .not file into a new .notx file
d. download/install new version (v.9) onto Mac via CrossOver
e. transfer it from the PC to via memory stick
f. remove the initially installed "study.notx" file (I just dropped it in the Trash)
g. transfer the new .notx file from memory stick to the Mac e-Sword folder in Documents
h. rename the new .notx file (the same one transferred from PC) to "study.notx" to replace the other .notx file I previously dropped in the trash
i. open up e-Sword; there it is!
j. CRITICAL LAST STEP: give God thanks and express gratitude for the help on this forum!

Gents - I've read forums until my eyes are rolling back in my head. I'm trying to take some study notes (about 31,000+) of them from version 8.0.6 to version 9.9.1 I've noted that I can export each note (one per verse) from the old version into an .rtf file that will import into the new version but surely that is not the only way to do it.

all of the notes are in .not file used for the old version and used the "e-Sword 8 to 9 converter" tool to convert it to a .notx file. but how do I add that to my new version?
