v 1.5.3 not installing properly

Post by Harvey »

I just noticed on MacUpdate that a new AmadeusPro version was available so I opened my application to use the update alert within AmadeusPro 1.5.2. My computer is a MacPPC G5 using OS 10.4.11. I had the message that the Update was downloaded and ready; did I want to Install Now or when I quit the program; I first clicked Update Now; no noticeable result except the application did appear to quit and was dim-highlited. I checked and it still said it was the old version, Upon repeated quit & re-open I had the same block that the Update was downloaded and ready. Finally logged out and back in to my user account and found the new AmadeusPro in my trashed file of Saved items. I moved it to Applications folder and chose "replace older file". Now the application/program says it is v1.5.3 but I still get the block message "Update is ready for install"; which procedure do I want to use, whenever I open it.

Bug in 1.5.3

Post by Buffalo »

Downloading went as normal from the web-site, and installation was as usual. However, the horizontal zoom has become inoperable in 1.5.3.

v 1.5.3 not installing properly

Post by Martin Hairer »

Unless I am mistaken, this seems to be a PowerPC-only problem. I will
investigate, but it may take some time to fix since I am abroad right now
and do not have access to any PowerPC computer. In the meantime, you
can downgrade to 1.5.2 at

Sorry for the inconvenience. Regards,

Martin

force quit

Post by Harvey »

Thanks for the link; I did replace the newer version with the older, but still get the pop up window that 1.5.3 is ready for install; now I force quit rather than choose when to install

Problems with MAC download

Post by Murdo Morrison »

I am also having problems with the download. I eventually manually downloaded and installed the update. However, each time I open the program I still get the message that the software is ready to install. Clicking either button results in no action. It's annoying. How do I make it stop?

v 1.5.3 not functional

Post by Abuelo »

Like Buffalo (and others) I have downloaded v 1.5.3 and find that the zoom control and also the horizontal scrolling do not function.

I am using a Mac PowerPC and system 10.4.11

Fortunately I did not dump v 1.5.2 (after having had unpleasant surprises with other software updates)

I note Martin's response and will wait patiently.

OK, I've figured out what the problem is. I made a modification to the
zoom function in which I inadvertently make a function call that only
exists on MacOS 10.5 and up. This causes the zooming to fail on 10.4.x.

Affected users can download a corrected version from

<http://www.hairersoft.com/Downloads/AmadeusPro.zip>

I will roll that out as an "official" update soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards,

Martin
