Dear Bethany,

Do you mean the warnings in Phase 2, which appear only if you have the 
verbose option? If so, you could try increasing the number of subphases 
from the default 4. If this does not help, as this is not a problem with 
the software, you'll need help from more experienced users than me. I've 
copied this message to the mailing list, in the hope that someone else who 
reads it may respond!

Regards,

Ruth
