I switched from a LaCie NAS drive to a mini server to solve problems with invisible files. I have trouble with the document manager looking for the old server. Unavailablility messages every 30 seconds and the program goes unresponsive, so Help > bug report can't be reached. I eventually found the plist (com.nisus.NisusWriter.plist) and the entries for Recent Windows and deleted them with Property List Editor (Software Development).
Nisus is still looking for the old server for styles. Removing the plists for Nisus didn't solve that problem so I don't know where the pointers to the old server for styles in the document manager are kept. /Users/Me/Documents/Nisus Documents/Style Library doesn't have them.
Is there any "Reset Document Manager" protocol, path, menu, button... that will kill the style look-up hang-up?

"The server "AFP on Flower" may not exist..."

Try moving/delete the file in your home directory at:It contains path information for all your document manager groups and files. Be sure to move the file away while NWP is not running.

Patch:
Restart old server
Open Document Manager
Remove folder entry from sidebar
Quit
Shut down server again
Reopen Nisus and Document Manager
Connect to folder on new server

But what if I'd already wiped the old server before selling it?

I have on my computer a file named Document Manager settings and it looks like it includes the data you are searching for. it location is ~user/Library/Application support/Nisus writer/.

I hope it helps.

Edit: oops, you got your answer while I was writing mine.. sorry..

Looks like ~/Library/Application Support/Nisus Writer/Document Manager Settings
has the necessary information in 4 entries starting with the name of the folder as it appears in the sidebar (Banking), then Number 3, Data <long hex character sequenc>, string /Volumes/Creek/Banking. But (test removal) also seems to affect the entry above those and below the templates entry.
Removing all 4 entries seems to be a more surgical repair without affecting anything else.

Those hex data sequences you see are Mac alias records, which OSX resolves on behalf of NWP, triggering the missing server warnings you're seeing.

Anyways, it sounds like you've resolved the problem. Let me know if not, thanks.
