This spring, I’m trading in my current rig for one of those dope ass iMacs.
For starters, I’ve been a member of the cult of Mac since high school, going from an eMac to a Mac Mini to my current MacBook Pro. You must use the translator XML file to enter the UTF-8 characters.I’ll be the first to admit I’m not much of a mouse & keyboard gamer.
(If you are confident that the installer will be used on Mac OS X versions 10.4 or greater, you can use up to 31 characters for the Tarball file name.) Otherwise, if you make the Tarball name longer than 29 characters, the uncompressed installer will not launch on the earlier OS versions. If you use the Post Processing section of build targets to create a Tarball (.tar.gz) version of your installer, you should restrict the Tarball file name to 29 characters or less for compatibility with OS X versions prior to 10.4.For information on a workaround that does not require authentication, please contact MindVision support. To allow that installation to work on OS X 10.7 or later, the installers must be set up to require OS X authentication.
Standalone uninstallers are placed on the root of the install destination.The second authentication is required when an item is set to "Ask User" for the install location, and when the user saves or prints license agreements or Read Me files. When authenticated installers are running on OS X v0.6, the OS requires users to authenticate a second time under certain scenarios.Prebinding is unnecessary in OS X 10.3.4 and later versions. We removed "Undo Mach-O Prebindings" and "Redo Mach-O Prebindings" from the Extras menu.Bundle updaters would remove folders that appeared to be empty, but in actuality contained zero K delete actions.The restart warning message for installers was too small to accommodate Dutch and Portuguese translations.
When importing XML to create a new VCT, the settings controlling when to call external code (such as before the install) were lost.Authenticated installers would fail to display double-byte languages correctly under OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.On OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion when using authentication, sub-launching installers.Web installers built on Intel processers would sometimes report errors.This change ensures that renumbering is saved, so the prompt to crunch the VCT doesn't reappear the next time the VCT is opened. VISE X now requires a save when closing a VCT after "crunching" it.Also, installers could not remove items from the Dock on an uninstall. On OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, installers were unable to correctly add items to the Dock (there were unneeded second entries).On OS X v10.7 Lion, installers were able to add items to the Dock, but they were not able to remove the items on an uninstall.This issue was present on both Intel and PPC processors, and could be triggered by using a billboard, or having certain Gestalt flags or Package flags set. VISE X would sometimes crash when building installers.When setting options in a single Get Info window for multiple items that have been selected in the VCT, the "Set Owner To Root" option could be toggled inadvertently.In these instances, the installers were incorrectly defaulting to English. On OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, authenticated installers using localization were unable to detect the machine's default language when they were relaunched.A "Code Sign Bundle" Post Processing option for build targets automatically signs installers once they are built.A "Check CodeSign Status" option in the Extras menu verifies code signing for the specified app.A "CodeSign Bundle" option in the Extras menu uses the developer's unique Developer ID to code sign the specified app.VISE X 5.1 provides the following new features to make code signing convenient for developers:
Developers can get a unique Developer ID from Apple, and use that ID to code sign their apps.
