Unable to install bible modules in e-sword

I have followed the "how to install e-sword modules" by Jack Phinney and also another post advising copying the bible .bblx file into/(home)/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/e-Sword/drive_c/Program Files/e-Sword/
The first instruction by Phinney gave a "winewrapper" error.

Tried the second one mentioned above but my "application support" does not contain a crossover folder.

Anything else I can try?

The Mac OS has two Application Support folders and I believe you're viewing the system-level one, and Crossover is stored in the user-level one.

A quick way to get to the right spot is to open Crossover, go to the Configure menu, Manage Bottles, select your E-Sword bottle from the list on the left, Advanced tab, Open C: drive, and in there you'll find the Program Files directory and the E-Sword directory that you want to copy the .bblx file(s) into.

I have followed all the suggested procedures and cannot get msg, hcsb and niv11- purchased add ons - to install. It goes all the way to the end of the install process and the window of the InstallShield Wizard comes up and indicates "InstallShield Wizard Completed", with the comment in the window
"The Wizard was interrupted before the e-Sword HCSB (NIV11,MSG) Bible Add-On could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run setup again"
I have the latest 'system, Macbook Pro Retina, Lion OS-X, e-Sword program and Crossover', so I don't understand what that means. Can someone help?

Did you ever get this figured out? I see that I replied to a support ticket from you in our system a day after you posted this message in the forum. Just checking to see that you were able to finally install the modules.
