WHAT'S NEW
Version 3.1.8: This is a minor update that includes the new Amazon ECS4 plugins as part of the standard distribution. (The old plugins have been removed.) Please note that Amazon will be shutting down the previous versions of the book lookup service on March 31. This means that the old Amazon plugins (as well as prior versions of Books, such as 1.x and 2.x) will no longer be able to retrieve information via Quickfill.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
RELATED LINKS
  • Version 2.3.5 for Mac OS X 10.2 or later available here. This definitely is the last update to the Books 2 line. With this release, we will drop the support for Books 1.x and Books 2.x. This means, there will be no more updates, bug fixes and/or new features for those releases. We firmly recommend updating your System to Mac OS X v10.4 and using Books 3.x, instead. Books 3.x offers all new features, is even more stable as the Books 1 and Books 2 lines and we are continuing to develop Books 3.x.

SOUTHPAWAMI  There is very little I can say about this program as I have not used it very long.

In one word..

Wow.  (Version 3.1.5)

SJHA  Having earlier drawn attention to a problem I was experiencing whereby Books 3.1 was hanging on Quit, I can now report that I solved this by letting Onyx carry out its full suite of maintenance procedures on my MacBook. I don't know what it was that was critical but anyway Books 3.1 now functions perfectly for me. I must say that during the troubleshooting procedure I went through I had exemplary email support from the developer. Indeed I felt guilty that the problem turned out to be at my end rather than inherent in his programme. So I can now gladly rate Books 3.1 with 5 stars, both for the actual programme features and for the support available if one has a problem.   (Version 3.1)

SJHA  I am experiencing a consistent failure to Quit with the new version 3.1. I have had to Force quit Books every time. This problem did not occur with Books 3.1rc6. I hope this is soon fixed as this is an excellent programme  (Version 3.1)

FROSTY  I entered in my first two books and I wanted to try out the Smart List feature. However, when I went to delete the list, I couldn't. The error message said: "Cannot Remove List. The remaining list can not be removed", even though there is another list already there.  (Version 3.0.5)
