Upgraded to X3 Producer from X2 Producer and now many of my synths are not showing

Just upgraded to X3 and now I don't have an option to insert Dimension Pro, Z3TA+ 2 (I do show the old free Zeta), and Superior Drummer.  There may be more, but this is all I've noticed so far.  I looked in X3 Knowledge Base and did the rescan and check marked Failed Plugins and Existing plugins as they suggested but still no go.
 
I'm pretty sure I remember a post from when X3 first launched but I haven't found it.
 
Thanks,
JB

    Hi jdown
    I upgraded from 8.53 to X3d a few months ago and now none of the Nomad product will load. I already had the Blueverb but I get an error message that the Blueverb is only compatible with X3 and will no longer work in 8.53.
    It also removed my V-Vocal plug in by deleting the folder which causes it to stop working. Fortunately I had a Norton Ghost Image of the boot drive and was able to restore the V-vocal back to a working state in V8.53.
    I'm really set back with the fact that Cakewalk can intrude on my privacy and perform this kind of redirect without informing me the user that they will render my plugins useless.
     
    I paid good money for these and without warning they start deleting that which worked on my 8.53 version. To be clear they include the BlueVerb in X3 and install this even though I already had this installed, then force their version to be used and delete the copy that I was already using in V 8.53. And now my copy no longer works in Sonar 8.53.
     
    I can't use version X3 due to poor eyesight and the fonts are so faint in a lot of the boxes making them entirely unreadable. I have had a Cornea transplant and am also awaiting Cataract removal so 8.53 was easy to set up with very high contrast colors whereby only some of the more important areas in Sonar X3 can be customized and the rest remain with very small fonts and no color options.
     
    I just wanted to add to your post that the upgrades are far from perfect and no one in the CW organization really seems to want to roll up their sleeves and help us.
