Edit your workspace. Under the Menus tab in the Workspace editor, expand Object Context (right click on object). You can add and remove items there.

Try copying the contents of the DVD to your local drive and install from there. Call sales to get a replacement.

Here's a tutorial. http://techboard.vectorworks.net/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=93218#Post93218

The .lck file is only there when you open a file in VW. It's to tell other users on a network who has it open and that it can't be opened by them. It's deleted when you close the file, but on a crash it remains, you can delete it.

What type of objects?

System Preferences>General>Check "Double_click a window's title bar to minimize"

Those are document specific settings, a new document will always have the default settings. Make any changes you want to a new document and save it as stationary to the Templates folder. Then when you use the New document menu command you can choose that file and your settings will be retained.

Did you restart Vectorworks?

I just did a search of the forum on "Arroway" and found this thread. http://techboard.vectorworks.net/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=176895&Searchpage=1&Main=35873&Words=arroway&Search=true#Post176895

I've been running both versions for months with no problems.

Mac OSX > Users > (YourUsername) > Library >Application Support > Vectorworks > 2008 > VW User Log

If you can, post the file here.

Have you updated to Service Pack 4?

I don't have that printer, but the Vista drivers should work.
