The Device ID is not used for OS Download, only for Sequence transfers.

The problems we have seen when quitting the application are independent 
of the way the application works while it is running. In other words, 
the application seems to work fine _until_ you try to exit, at which 
time it can sometimes hang. That doesn't seem related to your problem.

If you can't get the 'Show Available MIDI Devices' window to display 
your XL-7, then you definitely have some kind of problem (but you knew 
that already ;-) Once we get your device to show up in this window, the 
OS Download can then work.

What would help me troubleshoot this is if you could run the 
application, open the Message Console (found in the Window menu) and 
save the contents of that window to a file (using Save in the File 
menu). Then send me that log.txt file (***off list***). I may be able to 
see something in that log that is the clue to your problems.
