Update trying to install same version

Hello,

I already have Fusion v3.0.2 installed, and the updater is trying to install the same version. If I click "Download and Install" it starts Fusion and gets caught in a loop... Here's a screen shot of the Software Update message:

I'll just click Skip This Version, but the updateer should not be doing this?

Sincerely, Neil

This can happen if you migrate your Mac, restore from backup, or upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6. It's fixed in the 3.1 beta; if you don't want to run beta software, the fix is to reinstall from .dmg. If you don't reinstall from .dmg (whether it be the beta, 3.0.2, or any version) and just ignore the update, you will encounter problems later when you try to update.

Okay, I'm reinstalling from the DMG as I type -- thanks! I'll report back...
