Just to confirm: You used the latest one, uploaded 23 Oct 16, which is based on MailChimp API version 3.0, correct?

Yes that is the one I used :-) It worked :-)

I know I am going to feel like a real dufus for asking this, because it is probably something I am doing wrong.... but is anyone else getting the dreaded blank white website and error logs as follows:

[27-Oct-2016 16:20:01 America/New_York] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /home/xxxxxxxxxx/public_html/store/includes/functions/extra_functions/mailchimp_functions.php on line 5

[27-Oct-2016 16:20:42 America/New_York] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /home/xxxxxxxxxx/public_html/store/includes/functions/extra_functions/mailchimp.php on line 20

I am trying to update a site that currently has this mod installed... Am using the latest version in the downloads area on a 1.5.4 website.
The things I see different are:
includes/classes/MCAPI.class.php is removed
includes/functions/extra_functions/mailchimp_functions.php has been revised
includes/functions/extra_functions/mailchimp.php is a new file.

Appreciate any help anyone can give me!

Check /includes/functions/extra_functions/mailchimp_functions.php vs a fresh download.

Not sure what that means. Do I need to keep the "old" file there instead of putting up the one that is in the latest download?

To clarify..... I am using the file from the download area NOT the "old" file.

Compare the version of /includes/functions/extra_functions/mailchimp_functions.php on the server with a fresh copy from the plugin in the downloads section.

Hi Jim

I compared it, they are different. So I used the one from the downloads section instead of the "old" one that was on the server.

That's what blows up the website.

Judy, what version of PHP are you using?

Judy, what version of PHP are you using?

PHP Version: 5.3.29 (Zend: 2.3.0) PHP Memory Limit: 128M
Database: MySQL 5.5.52-cll

That's your problem then. PHP 5.3 has been out of active support for several years now. You need to be at 5.6 or better.
