DVD Studio pro 2.02 Update???Posted by John Foley
Has anyone here gotten the DVD Studio Pro 2.02 to work from the Software Updates utility?
When I run the Update Utility in 10.2.8, there is no mention of an updater for DVDSP 2, so I went to the Apple support site and downloaded the update (40Megs!) but when I try to install it, it can't find the copy of DVDSP 2 located on my hard drive in the Applications folder?? it just says that the application should be called DVD Studio Pro and it must be located in the Applications folder of the boot drive. The upgrade got installed as DVD Studio Pro 2.0 and I still have DVD Studio Pro (1.52) loaded in the same Applications folder.
As an update to anyone who might encounter this. I called Apple this morning and got connected to the Pro Software support team!
I explained that I was trying to upgrade my copy of DVDSP 2.0 to 2.02 and that it was not available from the Software Updates control panel. After the young lady who answered my call, she hurridly didn't listen completely to my problem, so it took a while to get her attention as to the real problem. The real problem seems to heave been that when I installed the DVDSP 2.0 upgrade to DVDSP 1.52, it titled the application DVD Studio Pro 2.0 since DVD Studio Pro was what 1.5 was called in the same folder. While the tech support person told me that shouldn't have happened, the installer was telling me the truth about wanting to find DVD Studio Pro in the Applications folder (which it did of course as DVDSP 1.5 was called that) but refused to update it! The tech support person suggested I remove DVDSP 2.0 from the system, go into the System-Libraries-Receipt folder and trash the references to DVDStudio Pro 2.0 Update and THEN reinstall DVDSP 2.0; after moving the older version of DVDSP into a folder to hide it. I did reinstall DVDSP 2.0 from the DVD and it was recognized with the correct serial number. After that I opened up the Software Updates control panel and there was DVD Studio Pro 2.02 update waiting for me. My point here being that one would have thought the DVDSP 2.0 UPGRADE might have wanted to know an older version was present, but apparently this is not the case. Perhaps it is like the FCP 4 Upgrade that installs with only a previous serial number!??
