Re: Confused again - JUST upgraded to 5.0 and now this . . .

2011-10-25 Thread Bob Sneidar
Yeah that threw me too, but since I have a license that goes into 2014, I 
realized it was a faux pas. I never click the Buy button if I already bought 
something.

 It seems Runrev wants more of my money. 
 
 I upgraded
 to 5.0 and they offered me a very good deal, so I took it. 
 
 However,
 now (1 day later) I get a message (from some kind of small app loaded
 into my startup) saying that my version of LiveCode 5.0 is obsolete (it
 literally said that) and would I like to upgrade to 5.0.1xxx??? 
 
 I
 click the link and they sent me to the developer's program purchase page
 - for $199 per year. Not a huge sum of money but like many of you, money
 is getting harder and harder to come by. 
 
 Not to sound stupid or
 ungrateful, but does this mean I will not be able to get updates until a
 stable release umpteen months from now while people who spend $200 get
 minute by minute updates? 
 
 Sheesh. A fool and his money soon do part.

Please advise.

Any upgrades you are entitled to will be available from the Store at 
runrev.com. Select that link and sign in. 5.0 seems to be the latest 
publicly available version. There is a 5.0.1 developer preview which is 
a pre-release version available only to those who have paid the 
additional money to be involved in the Developer Program. I don't get 
any messages regarding an update when I open 5.0 under Linux. (I am a 
member of the Developer Program as a result of the prior licensing 
model.) I wonder if this is a bug.


If you have a question regarding what future updates you may be entitled 
to, ask RunRev support directly. They are the only people who have 
access to your records and who can provide you a definitive answer.


Regards,

Warren

I'm wondering the same thing, because 5.0 has just reintroduced 
auto-update notifications. It's new code and there may be a glitch.

Anyone affected should definitely take this advice. Not only is the 
notice misleading, but the team needs to know there's a problem.

Re: Confused again - JUST upgraded to 5.0 and now this . . .

2011-10-24 Thread Colin Holgate
Your timetable may be a little out.  4.6 was  out near the end of March, 4.6.1 
in May, 4.6.2 in June, 4.6.3 in July, 4.6.4 in September, and 5.0 in October. 
Each of those had  several test builds that you could have access to if you had 
one of the more costly deals with LiveCode, and if you're urgently trying to 
solve a problem you could justify the cost. If you mainly want to take the 
latest features as the stable version is released, then it's averaging a lot 
quicker than umpteen months between versions.
