USB key not detected: Mac OS X 10.5 / ArchiCAD 7.0

Hi
I have just helped my brother-in-law migrate from a PC to a new Mac, and we are having some problems getting Archicad to recognise his USB key.

It works fine in his PC but when we start up Archicad on the mac it complains that the USB key is not detected.

I have downloaded the latest WIBU driver software from the Graphisoft site (which says it works up to OS X 10.4) and it detects the key, but Archicad does not. I have also been to the WIBU website and downloaded a later driver which is for OS X 10.5 and again it detects the key but Archicad does not.

The USB ports are fine - they work with other USB peripherals.

It seems that Archicad 7.0 cannot work with the WIBU drivers for OS X under 10.5

Does anyone know if this is a know problem, or if there is there a way to get this working or is he going to need to upgrade to a new version of Archicad?

Thanks.

You can allways downgrade your Mac-system to OSX 10.4.x, thats one
of the two solutions, the second one is more expensive,but worth every
penny : upgrading Archicad to the latest version .
