2818 Not Installing
« on: April 06, 2019, 03:04:30 AM »
I go through the install process for the V6 2818 update, but when I am done and open PM, the About dialog still shows 2725. None of the changed items appear to be there.

I've tried both installing and downloading several times.

Running Mac OS 10.14.3

Mick,

Running Mac OS 10.14.3

There is no true installer on the macOS version, it's just a disk image.  When the disk image mounts and after you agree to the EULA, Get Info on the Photo Mechanic 6 application.  What does it say about the application in the Version field?  Mine says Version: 6.0, build 2818 (66ae7fc)

If it says it is what mine says then copying it to your Applications folder should replace the current 2725 build.

Kirk,

I was able to get it to install by selecting the "Keep Both" option in the installer dialog. I then opened the Applications folder in finder and deleted the old version.

Selecting the "Replace" option in the installer dialog resulted in the old version staying.

This is the first time I have had this happen in years of updating PM.
