Important notes

The patch update files are different for different builds. Please be sure you download the correct patch update file for your installation.

This patch update is for the English version only. Do not use this patch if you have the German version of one of our products.

If you're running Version 4.0 under a floating license, your system administrator must update the version of FlexLM installed on your server before you can use any Version 4.1 build. FlexLM Version 8.1 comes with our Version 4.1 CD, but is not available by download. For information about installing a new version of FlexLM and obtaining an updated serial number, system administrators should either contact the distributor from whom the product was purchased or contact MacKichan Software technical support by email or by telephone at (206) 780-2799 or (877) 724-9673.
