spacegraphics 0 Posted September 9, 2009 Anyone upgraded to 10.6 yet? I am worried that SignCut won't work if I do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
727pilot 0 Posted September 10, 2009 Upgraded this morning and, of course, got an emergency call for a sign about an hour later. Well signcut works just fine. No Problems at all. On the other hand Inkscape does not. I crashes as soon as it tries to open. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VendettaVinyl 0 Posted September 11, 2009 Also CS4 is not 100% with 10.6 yet. Apple is still working on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spacegraphics 0 Posted September 11, 2009 Good to know! I am on CS3 - I hear there are a few issues, but for the most part it works fine. I guess that I will upgrade! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daddy-o 0 Posted September 12, 2009 I haven't run into any problems yet with CS3, Snow Leopard does seem to be noticeably faster though. Glad I made the switch. Daddy-o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kimon 1 Posted September 14, 2009 We have found several users who have communication trouble with Summa cutters, possibly the drivers are not compliant for the Summa Usb connection. We have however tested Snow Leopard with 20 or so standard import machines and have had great success so far. SHould you encounter snow leopard problems we would love to try and assist you so please let us know at support@sc-x2.com One other thing we have not released a Snow Leopard certified version of signcut so upgrading now could be problematic, we suggest possibly testing on a secondary machine before making your business dependent on a freshly released and unproven OS.

Daddy-o 0 Posted September 14, 2009 I haven't run into any problems yet with CS3, Snow Leopard does seem to be noticeably faster though. Glad I made the switch. Daddy-o Was afraid I might have to recant my recommendation after this weekend. I use an open source java-based program to run model trains called JMRI. After struggling to solve a communication issue, I found the following on the JMRI site: "If you're using Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), you first have to configure Java on Mac OS X for "32 bit" operation. Mac OS X 10.6 can run in either 32-bit or 64-bit mode, but the communications libraries we currently use are only available in 32-bit mode. To do this, open the "Java Preferences" application from the Utilities folder inside the computer's Applications folder, then set the default "Java Application" in the lower window to "Java SE 6 32-bit"." An easy fix once you know about it, but quite worrisome until you do. Not sure if it will address anyone's issues here, but figured it can't hurt to spread the word.

spacegraphics 0 Posted September 14, 2009 I upgraded to Snow Leopard today. I just gave the vinyl cutter a trial run. SignCut crashed a few times, but then gave me a warning about switching licenses to a new computer. It finally cut a few minutes later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kimon 1 Posted September 15, 2009 Not sure about the crashes but a new operating system creates new hardware ID's which is seen as a new computer by our server which will create a transfer. We allow users 5 transfers to allow for hardware or os upgrades. Should you continue to have trouble please let us know at support@sc-x2.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spacegraphics 0 Posted September 25, 2009 Worked with SignCut again last night...It crashed a total of 23 times before it would stay running long enough to make a cut. It just shuts down. My persistence pays off, though, cause it will eventually run. Just frustrating. I knew it was a risk in the upgrade to 10.6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
