Problem with Upgrading to Toast 10.02 with MacOS 10.5

[Lindberg]

Hi,

 

I just upgraded my older version of Toast Titanium to Toast 10. When I installed that new version on my Mac and just after I started it, the application asked for an Upgrade. When I tried to install the Upgrade asked for, the finder told me that it was an older version than my brand new version of Toast 10???

 

I've saved that upgrade in my computer but I did not installed it, just in case somthing would go wrong...

 

It seem's that this Upgrade is a complete new installation (if you double-clik into the container of the Image Disc)?

 

Should I take the risk of installing that Upgrade over my previous version of Toast 10 anyway or should I look elswere on Roxio's site just to get another upgrade's file???

 

If so, where shoud I look?

 

Thanks in advance and looking forward to read you,

This up to date version of Toast 10 is a full install, not just an update. My understanding is you should be able to do a clean install after downloading the latest version and input your key code. Here is the link

If you want to be "safe" you can rename the older Toast 10 folder and then copy the new one for the mounted disk image download. That way you'll have both versions until you decide you're comfortable with trashing the older one.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your prompt reply!

 

I already did that. But it was not so much of a "Clean Install" as you so mentionned. When I tried to transfer the new "Folder Application Upgrade (10.02)" to my application's folder, the Finder did not liked it at all stating the classic response: "You do not have sufficient permission"??. And also, the Toast 10 original application dissapeared from it's original folder afterward??

 

I managed to fool the Finder a little by lauching the new application by double-clicking it directly from the Upgrade container and re-install it from there as a "Claean Install". I also copied each little app. from that Container's Upgrade into the original folder of Toast 10. That worked fine.

 

I was lucky I guess, because everything is now working okay it seem's. I relaunched toast 10 a few times afterward just to make sure...

 

May I also point out that I did not keep a copy of the original folder but I always do keep copies of the original "Discs Images". I was tempted to do a copy of the original folder but I was afraid something would go wrong with the OS afterward...

 

From now on I just hope for the best with Toast 10..

 

Thanks again both for your time,

The problem with permissions goes away if you first drag the previous Toast 10 folder to the trash or if you rename that folder before dragging in the new one. The problem appears when the new folder is having to replace the older one.
