Dear David

I originally had it all in /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/ but it did  
not work. I have moved it now to the location you suggested:

/Users/Matthew/Library/

I have run the command and get:

!!! ERROR! The map file `Minion.map' has not been found at all.

     Either put this file into the right place or remove the
     reference from the configuration file. An automatic way
     to disable unavailable map files is to call
       updmap --syncwithtrees

     For manual editing, call
       updmap --edit

I'm lost, because the MnSymbol installation worked first time!

Best
Matthew
