With me it's like that: Syncing works (I sync to Claris Organizer, don't
know anymore if it was preinstalled on Victor Rehorst's disk image or if
I had to install it separately). Importing RTF-files from the "Mac" to the Newton
never really worked for me here (while it works perfectly with a serial
connection and the native Windows-NCU). But installing packages
is very easy and reliable. Just connect your "Mac" and your Newton and drag and
drop an installable package to the NCU window. This also works for
multiple packages provided they aren't larger than 900 K each. Are
you sure your packages are installable? There's a tool named "PackType"
which will make sure of that, do you have it on you Basilisk based "Mac"?

Best,
