Thank you for this advice.
Unfortunately I only have a mac book. What other Software would run with electrum wallets?

The easy answer if that is the case then is to go into System Preferences -> Users & Groups and then after you unlock (click the padlock icon) hit the "+" symbol and add a new user account. Create a new account on the Mac Book.
Log in to your new user account and restore Electrum there. One advantage to having it in a separate account (and making sure your regular one is "Standard" not "Admin") is that it provides a little isolation from the regular user account.
You should also be able to move the "default_wallet" to a new location then you could create a new one and restore it in your regular account. (Or perhaps rename it - in ~user/.electrum iirc. )
