Joachim :)
The following directorys exist in $HOME/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/:
file:/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/cache
file:/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/printing
file:/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/profiles
file:/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/sessions
file:/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/bookmarks.xml

/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/profiles is empty

And by the way, here's something interesting:
/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime/sessions contains both sessions
that I tried to save and reload when you asked me to do that earlier.  I
opened one of them in KATE, and the session appears to be saved
correctly:

I obviously quoted the file above for the purpose of proving that the
session was saved, but for some reason I'm not being allowed to load it.
The only other information I have to add is that I just made sure that
the user that I am logged in has ownership, and read, write and execute
permissions for the above mentioned directories and files, and
everything is in order.

That's all I have for now, except to clarify some things concerning what
you said about something possibly being wrong with my configuration,
before I sent my original message on this thread to you, I renamed my
BibleTime configuration files/directories for the purpose of seeing what
would happen if BibleTime wrote completly new config files.  The
directories/file that I renamed, and consequently were completely new
when I sent my original message are the following:
/home/elizabet/.kde/share/apps/bibletime
/home/elizabet/.kde/share/config/bibletimerc

I'm sure the above files have proper ownership/permissions.  If there
are other config files I should check, feel free to let me know.  The
only other possibilities I found was the following:
/usr/share/apps/bibletime
But upon investigation similar to the type mentioned above, nothing
there seemed applicable :)

Anyway, I'll check my e-mail again soon to see if there is anything else
I can do for you :)
