Moved thread from Riven discussions to Myst III: Exile discussions.

This puzzle almost made me cry. After completing Myst 1 and Riven completely blind I finally caved in at this piece of ♥♥♥♥ of a puzzle. I feel ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ horrible. Can someone at least explain how the ♥♥♥♥ are you supposed to get this?...

When playing Myst III Exile on my MacBook Pro with Ventura OS, the game would freeze as soon as I tried to save or exit, after requesting access to my Documents folder. When I granted full disk access to the correct file the problem was solved - the *correct* game file was located here: ~>applications>library>application support>steam>steamapps>common>Myst III Exile>Exile ( ~ indicates username)...

Hi, some of the hints in the books are quite clear about puzzles but I am in Amateria trying to solve the two rotating discs but there is no hint or reference how it works, although walk-troughs are available online but Is it how it supposed to be played, trial and error?...

Followed Saavedro to his locked building, went down to the cottage at the bottom of the rocks and got the journal. Raised the elevator to reveal the weights and gears, but as soon as I move wt #1 the screen freezes and the game just quits after about 5 seconds. No errors, just closed the game. I have looked through the discussions and don't see anyone else having this issue. Any ideas?...
