\nIf you’ve had trouble launching our apps since yesterday, you’re not alone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What we know, so far, is the receipts embedded in most, if not all, Mac App Store apps became invalid yesterday. \u00c2\u00a0This happened without any advance warning<\/strong> from the mothership. \u00c2\u00a0How apps reacted to this varied. \u00c2\u00a0Our apps are among those affected, and in the worst way. \u00c2\u00a0We’re working with Apple to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n

At present, Apple has made changes at the Mac App Store that will allow you to redownload any of our apps and get back up and running unless<\/b> you are using\u00c2\u00a0a version of Audiobook Builder from our website.<\/strong> \u00c2\u00a0In that case, you’ll still need a serial number to help you get back up and running until the new version of Audiobook Builder is approved at the Mac App Store, which shouldn’t be too much longer. \u00c2\u00a0Please send a copy of your Mac App Store receipt<\/strong> to\u00c2\u00a0support@splasm.com<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0and we’ll send a serial number for Audiobook Builder.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the meantime, we’re giving away our apps at our online store<\/a>. \u00c2\u00a0If you need to download our apps from our website, click here first<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0to\u00c2\u00a0go through the order process\u00c2\u00a0for a single-user license<\/strong>. \u00c2\u00a0You won’t be asked for billing information. \u00c2\u00a0At the end of the order you’ll receive a serial number so you can get back to it. \u00c2\u00a0If you’ve already purchased a license to try to fix things, please let us know<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0and we’ll return your purchase as the dust settles.<\/del><\/p>\n

CheckBook and CheckBook Pro<\/strong> users:<\/strong> \u00c2\u00a0click here for the very latest version,<\/a>\u00c2\u00a02.5.8 Beta 5, which will do a better job of locating your\u00c2\u00a0data if you’re updating from a significantly older version. \u00c2\u00a0It includes numerous fixes for version 2.5.7 and is ready for everyday use. \u00c2\u00a0Your data is safe and sound<\/strong> and will automatically appear (provided you get a copy of the same application you already have – CheckBook for CheckBook folk, CheckBook Pro for CheckBook Pro folk).<\/del><\/p>\n

Audiobook Builder users:<\/strong> \u00c2\u00a0click here for the very latest version,<\/a> 1.5.4 Final Candidate 3.<\/p>\n

Thanks everyone for your understanding and patience. \u00c2\u00a0We’re simultaneously fielding hundreds of emails per hour, phone calls, and working to fix this at the source. \u00c2\u00a0Hang in there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
