PFP 2.0 Download

PFP 2.0 Download

2006-12-07 by ve2caz

Hello,

I noticed that the new release is available from the download site. I
also noticed that a password is required to access it. How does
someone who purchased Print Fix Pro 1.0 Suite obtain access to such a
password?

Since I have registered with Color Vision I have never received
information on this update or anything else for that matter. If I
hadn't been following this group I would not have known about the update.

Have I registered incorrectly or have others experienced the same thing?

Thanks,
Pierre

I do not see PFP 2.0 download at the download site. Am I missing something?

The download site you're referring to is for registered BETA testers only.
The only people who would normally have the LINK to that download site
would be beta testers, who we've also supplied the password to. If you
don't know the password, you're not on the beta list and naturally enough,
you don't have access to the installers that are posted there, for beta sites.

Anyone who is an existing ColorVision customer can go to the main web
site for ColorVision and download whatever is the most current release
of software for their product.

As a matter of fact, the current release (1.1.1) (soon to be "previous"
release") has been up on the ColorVision web sites since June. All you've
ever needed to do was go to http://www.colorvision.com, click on Support at
the top of the page, go to Downloads, then Software Upgrades.

http://www.colorvision.com/sup_dl-upgrades.shtml

You should see the PFP 2.0 release installers appearing there shortly.
Just check back periodically and when they're available: you'll see them!

I'm not sure what happens with the registration process; maybe David Tobie
will be able to comment on this when he has a chance....:-)


Best regards,

Thanks for the explanations.

BTW, from the download site it wasn't readily apparent that this was
for beta code. Maybe adding the beta word in there would help? :o)

PFP 2.0 downloads will be available when they're available...:-) If you
don't see them there yet, then they're not available on the ColorVision
web sit yet...:-)

Ok, let's do this. If anyone has PFP 1.x and would like to get the 2.0 release
version tonight, 12/7, email me off list at davem@... and I'll
give you a link and a password to the 2.0 installers.

Best regards,

Either you are referring to the betatest site, which is accessible only to registered beta testers (and is not a ColorVision or Datacolor address, which should tell you if thats the case) or you are trying to download from the European CV site, which has instituted their own form on download screening, which requires you signup with them to download updates.

Since I have registered with Color Vision I have never received
information on this update or anything else for that matter.


I'd suggest going to your ColorVision site (US or Europe, depending on which newsletter you want) and sign up again. There should be a blast today noting that the installers are up on the sites, I would think.

If I
hadn't been following this group I would not have known about the update.


No one would until the user blasts go out telling them. Given that the software is only going up today, its understandable that they haven't gotten the announcements out yet.

Have I registered incorrectly or have others experienced the same thing?

Depends on how recently you signed up. If it was in the last month, there may have not been a newsletter since you signed on (we try not to flood people's email boxes). If its been months, then sign up again...

Hi Luca:

Windows users: Uninstall 1.1.1 (with the spectro unplugged) before you
run the 2.0 installer.

OSX owners: just run the new installer. It will make a PrintFIX PRO 2.0
application folder inside your Applications folder, alongside any other
(older) PrintFIX PRO application folder.

Best regards,

I think I'll agree. Just make sure you move any older measurement files
from older PFP application folders in the Data:PRO folder in the 2.0 folder.

Especially on Windows, its always a good idea to uninstall before installing. Save a copy of your PRO data folder, in case you want any of those measurement sets later.
