BS2.0 Hangs when changing default directory

I'm running BS2.0 build 42 on a MacOSX Lion.

The last time I installed BS all of the files (i.e. recipes, reports, ingredients, etc) got installed into the "Applications" Folder.  Since I knew this wasn't right, I backed up all of those .bsmx files to another directory, deleted BS2.0 and then reinstalled.

When I reinstalled BS2.0 I tried changing the default documents directory to the "Documents" directory and then moving my backed up files to that directory.

Here's the problem:  BS hangs (non-responsive) and I have to force-quit.

Here's my question:  What I am doing wrong and how can I fix this?
 
Hi,
  If you use the standard installation (drag the app over to the applications folder), BeerSmith will store all of your data to the Documents/BeerSmith2 directory by default.

  You should not need to move them unless you really want them stored somewhere else.

  If you already changed the directory and now have it in a bad state, send me an email and I can help you reinstall everything cleanly.

Thanks,
Brad
