Hi All,

Those of you who will be upgrading to Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion will need to update your version of Anime Studio 8.x to 8.2.1 (Debut and Pro).

You can download the updates here: http://anime.smithmicro.com/updates.html

This Mac only update fixes bugs that prevented Anime Studio 8.x from running on Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.

Regards,

Fahim

i have anime studio pro 5 and i won't work in mountain lion. what to do? i cant find any update for my version.

Can you give use a Mountain fix for verison 7.1?

If not, can you submit all disappointed clients a special "switch to the current version, that works with Mountain lion" offer?

Thanks.

Welcome to the world of computers. Version 7 is so old now I don't think it is Smith Micro's responsibility to maintain it's OS compatibility.
These types of things happen from time to time, in the PC world there is a very simple fix- right click....compatibility mode, all fixed, easy.
If Mac doesn't have such a feature then it up to you to either update AS, roll back your OS or buy a PC.

This issue just makes me laugh. At least it's not as bad as the Anime Studio v5 user who couldn't get that to work on Mt. Lion. If you keep your OS on the bleeding edge don't you have to keep your software up to date as well?

p.s Apple did have a "Compatibility Mode" feature for OSX (it was called "Classic Mode") until they just couldn't support it any more. I still have Classic running in an old OSX version on one of my computers as well as an 25 mhz computer with Mac OS 7 so I can keep running Hypercard. I soooo miss Hypercard <sniff>. I am sure there will be a point in time when Windows won't have a compatibility option either.

Windows won't have a compatibility option either.

Eeek , I hope not! I foolishly bought Mirage instead of TVP, so I can't update that software and need compatibility to run it.
I just can't bring myself to fork out the whole lot again, I just ain't gonna' do it.

Moving on from version 7 is a good idea anyway , and not too pricey at all, those with the OS troubles should perhaps have a read around on the forum about latest versions of AS, you might be happy to update.

You know that TVP is in v10 now? And it's worth the money. Mirage was, what, v6? 7? And 10 still opens my old .mir files.

Maybe I'll wait for V 20
