Gerry,

First, update your IDV. It is quite old.

The UNAVCO plugin may be giving you trouble.

Please delete the UNAVCO plugin in

/Users/creager/.unidata/idv/DefaultIdv/plugins/

Alternatively, you can move your ~/.unidata directory (i.e., mv .unidata
unidata.bak), and restart the IDV.

Reinstall this plugin via the plugin manager.

Let us know if you run into problem.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
