When Object Desktop 2009 is released, this is where the known issues will be posted. Please post your findings here as well. Thank you!
Notes and Known Issues: (all issues are being worked on at this time)
Theme Manager 3.0 (Published at 11am)
Deskscapes 2.5 (with XP support published at 1pm)
Bootskin Pro 1.0 (published at 6:30pm)
WindowBlinds 6.3 (published on 11/18/2008)
zargon, like k10w3, i do not have aero midnight listed on the applications tab of theme manager. also, i have almost all of odnt, including windowblinds, installed.
I UPDATED Soundpackager as required for use with Theme manager 3 (Windows Defender off and Firewall diasbled) and now it insists that it needs to be activated and gives me "Activation Error (stage 4)" each and every time............I've put my OD ultimate serial in with my email and no go
....took me three hours to fix last night's Windowblinds update......I'm wondering if I've got something borked in ODNT period. The deskscapes update was the the only one that's worked right since Windowblinds 6.3 came out
MS Office 2007 is no longer skinning.
When I try and start a dream on Dreamscapes 2.5, my PC thinks for a second and then does nothing. This happens with any dream I attempt to run. I just downloaded the latest 2.5 version today using Impulse.
Some specs:
OS: XP SP3
Video Card: nVidia Quadro FX570M.
Thus far I have tried to remove my current theme with Theme Manager and then try the dream, no joy. I have also restarted the various OD applications with no joy. Has anyone seen this before, and if so, what was the resolution?
We are aware of this issue and looking into it at this time.
Did you apply Aero Midnight? It will not show up until you apply it once.
k10w3 - Vista or XP?
Do you have a video codec installed? Do you have DirectX9 installed? You will need both to apply a dream.
See information here about this:
https://www.stardock.com/products/deskscapes/faq.asp
DX9 is installed, and I have a number of codecs installed using that Decoder Checkup Utility. My perfered codec is the Intervideo Video Decoder. After selecting that and restarting my PC, still nothing.
We just published Bootskin Pro. Please see update to first post in this thread for details.
zargon, as i said before, i have tried to apply aero midnight using theme manager 3 in both the suyites area and the appliations area. in neither area does it apply. the wallpaper and icons change but not the windowblinds skin. also, none of the gadgets appeared, either.
Bootskin Pro doesn't work for me. If I select a skin I only get the default aurora style picture at boot.
iwas; I had the same issue. I switched to the windows classic theme in the standard windows settings, then switched back to aero and all of the sudden midnight popped up in all its glory.
MS Office 2007 no longer skins. Vista Ultimate 64 bit. The skin is Encounter. The very latest version of WB, 6.3 build 112 x 86.
that's not working here, mickeko. thanks for offering the help, tho.
XP, Media Center Edition, Service pack 3.
when i try to appy a new bootskin, i get a message telling me an error has occured. no further details shown though. im on vista ultimate 64 bit, uac shut off, logged into admin account. i will also add that i have an issue getting aero midnight to show up, ive applied the theme abd have the wall, gadgets and icons applied but the sjin will not and doesn't show up in the list of skins either
I have re-installed Impulse but I cannot see under the "my desktop" tab where to download OD2009. Someone please help.
Thanking you in advance
Fyi there is no single download for OD 2009, the apps that belong to the suite have individually updated. If you download them the will all be of the latest release. Install them and check version numbers. You should have Bootskin Pro v 1.00.027, Windowblinds 6 v6.30.104, IconPackager 4 v4.10.172, Deskscapes v2.50.067, and Theme Manager v3.00.053. I might have forgotten some but those should be the main ones.
I just have a question as I don't seem to be having issues as yet. (knock on virtual wood...) Is BootSkin Pro going to be released for XP in the future? I have the alpha of the XP BootSkin so I'm good, just curious.
I'm having the same problem, and the instructions above don't quite make sense. I just renewed my OD subscription and reinstalled Impulse, and I'm still showing the older versions of all applications. Am I supposed to download them again individually? This is not at all clear from within Impulse - despite the fact that I renewed via Impulse.
Did you update WindowBlinds to 6.3?
Rebooted and all is OK now.
You don't have to do anything if you already have all of your applications up to date. Today we updated:
Theme Manager
Bootskin Pro
WindowBlinds
SoundPackager
Deskscapes
You should see updates available for those applications if you were already up to date.
Bootskin Pro doesn't work. All I get is a message saying "There was an error while applying xxxx"
