Switch doesn't work at all on OS10

alextech

Has anybody actually got Swich to work on OS10 (10.3.9) - I tried downloading the "trial version", all the instuctions were in German, and the only option available was to purchase it online. Since Switch Plus has never worked for me before, I'm reluctant to purchase it.

Any suggestions?

hi,

can you please tell us where you downloaded it from ? we tested downloading both switch and switch plus for mac yesterday and both versions were all in english, so we have no idea where you might be getting this version from.

When you click on the purchase order it directs you here:

The programme then freezes and you can't get rid of it. You have to Force Quit it.

I don't know whether this is any use to you but I just tried down loading from the link that was sent by the e-mail

http://www.nch.com.au/components/switchmac.zip

And I followed the instructions for installation and on clicking on switch.app you get a grey box stating:

Did anybody there think to test using MacOS10 (3.9)?? Or just Windows? I think the problem is with Mac.

you make it sound simple. switch works fine for us on Mac OS X. i was using it most of last week. this is why we are taking time to work out what the issue is, obviously there is a problem, but we have to figure out what it is. please bear with us.

my OS 10.4.7 downloaded the trial version great. the software ran beautifully and i love the simple interface. problem is I bought my songs in m4p in iTunes and the conversion is giving me a long silent recordings when i bluetooth them over to my mobile, and when i play them on iTunes. the originals play fine. :unsure: \

another website says there's a special iTune development on 6.0.5 which is designed to stop "conversion: software from working? the hymn people are working on it...I'm sure you know about hymn dot org...they haven't cracked it yet - we're waiting...

is you facing the same challenge, maybe? or am i barking up the wrong tree?

m4p files : while you can't directly convert them, perhaps RecordPad can record the song played in real time yes ? (www.nch.com.au/recordpad) no guarantees it will work, but a try is better than nothing.

i've never heard of this new development in iTunes 6.0.5, that is very worrying, and makes me wonder why Apple would want to stifle the work of third-party developers.

we'll continue working at the product on the mac though, its certainly not being abandoned, if anything we want to put extra focus on the mac version this time around.

Hi, did you ever manage to find a way of converting M4P? There must be a way round this problem.
