re: yer ? below, ya might try:
1) make sure that DP/fastlane is not filtering-out sysex, and
2) slow the sequencer's playback tempo down to 60bpm..... or even slower.
3) although this is probably not at all germane, MacOS 9.2.2 is has known 
memory-leak issues..... 9.2.1 is fine, i think.
4) try 'importing' the midi-file from an already-open app.....
best,
