THE MAC DOC There is a crash which occurs in the latest version (5.0.11) which I can consistently reproduce. To my knowledge this only occurs under Snow Leopard (10.6.2). It does not occur on any of my Macs running Tiger (10.4.11). The crash happens under My Models when adding the Contact from the Address Panel. I have confirmed the crash on both a 1st generation Macbook as well as an Early 2009 Mac Mini, both of which run 10.6.2. However, it works just fine on a Dual 2.7GHz G5, so perhaps this is an Intel-only issue? I absolutely adore Mactracker and have used it for years, which is why I am bringing this to everyone's attention. Im sure the developer will squash this in no time. I was just wondering if anyone else can reproduce this crash.

PROKOS_J I would like to download this but it seems like a waste of bandwidth to download the entire database each time Apple releases a few new gadgets. Seems to me it would be more efficient to develop some sort of update package since that would invariably be only a few kilobytes in size. Just a suggestion. This is not the only transgression of this kind out there. Having to download a 100 MB UniveralBinary/Multiple Language software package to find out that only 50 MB of it are needed on my system
well, that's annoying. The answer in this time of multiple Apple systems running different processors and OSs in different countries is to have a selection, not jam every possible configuration into one package. I don't think that adding a download package for English only, one for PPC and one for Intel would be so difficult. Of course, I am not a software programmer.

SJK 5.0.10 fails to launch on PPC-based Macs (G4, G5) I've tested. App briefly appears in Dock, then silently quits. Runs fine on Mac mini (Early 2009).

SNOWWHITESICKETTE That has happened to my PPCs as well- Mactracker would launch, bounce a few times in the dock, then disappear quietly. At first. But it actually works very well on my PPCs. Using 5.0.10 on three PPCs, two G3s and a G4. I don't know if it is a coincidence, but it worked if I clicked the word Mactracker as it appeared in the top menu bar, when I tried to launch Mactracker. I've not seen the symptom come back after it opens properly once. Launches normally every time, on each machine now.

SJK Thanks for posting that interesting discovery. For now I'll keep running the PPC build the developer sent me after reporting the problem.

CRAZZYEDDIE Mactracker does have an internal updater. It uses Sparkle just like most other Mac apps.
