Virtual PRC and Mac Snow Leopard -- Not!

2009-12-01 by qv308

Well, I asked about this some months ago, and while group members offered suggestions nothing worked, and Yamaha tech support was no better.

The problem:  Virtual PRC will not start under Snow Leopard, Apples latest version of the OS X software, currently version 10.6.2. I understand that Virtual PRC is a java application.  OS X downloads its own version of java with OS X software updates -- you don't go to the java website to get the latest version.

Has anyone had any luck with Virtual PRC and Snow Leopard?  I can get to the "Start" menu on the browser, then a window opens showing a download occurring, and then nothing happens.  Under earlier versions of OS X at that point in the procedure, after the download window, the virtual representation of the PRC remote would open up on the desktop and I would be in business.

I can still communicate with the Disklavier, for example, sending midi files to the PC sharing folder.

Help appreciated.  Steve
