Hey, I'd love to help, but I need a bit more info. What is isn't working? Will Workspaces not come up or is it a problem within Workspaces? Hope I can help. :)

Ok, I think I know what the problem is. Do you have any files in the Workspace yet?

If you have files in your Workspace just click on one of your files, the file will come up, and you will be able to type in the file just fine. If you don't have files in the Workspace right click in the black space to the left of the work area, a pop down menu will appear, click on the New File button. Then you will be able to type in that file. Hope this helps. :)
