Re: [Avid-L2] MC v8.4 + OS 10.8.5?

for what it's worth, i did a inplace os update from 10.8.5 to 10.10.4 with MC 8.4 installed (i deactivated for safety's sake) on my 24core hackintosh luggable. MC reactivated and works better than 10.8.5…

also if you happen to get 'failed preflight' on the uninstallers or 'failed install' at the end of install, it's likely that it cant add or remove the icon from the stupid dock. I use ONYX to disable dock items that are not active- resetting the dock to default with it will let the installer work. never documented but i lost many cycles figuring that one out a while back.

Isn't that how it always works ? The uninstaller only uninstalls the
version it came with ? Maybe I've been wrong all this time.
