ADRIANBOLT  Currently there is no other Mac archiving utility that supports the standard PKWare split zip archives. This means Springy is the ONLY program that does it. It should therefore be obvious that any Mac user needs Springy if they want to use PKWare split zip archives.

STRIDER72  BetterZip also splits archives. Not sure if it's the exact same format as this app.

For all of those who would like to see what was the issue here, check out this link:

By the way, the Windows version of Springy doesn't exist, so how can it be functional there? But who knows, perhaps somehow you've managed do install and run it on that platform.

JULY1962  PLEASE do check out how this developer responded to my problem. He basically told me that since I didn't agree with his responses (which basically went against his advertising) that it was MY problem and that I should contact Apple and tell them to make it so that he could make his program work. Problem is, the files that his program creates don't work with anything BUT Springy. The files in general DO work on a mac, just not the ones that Springy creates.

As for a PC program, perhaps that was misleading of me. HE stated to me that the product that Springy creates is totally usable by OTHER programs on PC's while on a Mac only Springy will work.

Direct quote from him/her: "On Windows, WinZip and PKZip will extract files from split archive made with Springy without any problems."

MILKE  I responded normally as I always do, trying to be helpful and as explanatory as I could. Your false accusations and statements of "false advertisement" and "program not being fully functional for Macs", made me responding differently, and I don't regret for that. People can follow the link above, it's all in there, they can judge themselves.

JULY1962  You're right, they can. And just because you say it isn't false advertising doesn't make it not false advertising. I proved that it is.

MILKE  Okay how does this read?...

"And just because you say it IS false advertising doesn't make it false advertising. I proved that it ISN'T."

I won't respond to your false accusations and statements any more, not here, not anywhere. You can keep claiming whatever you want. I rest my case.

LOL I did read the discussion on the forum and I can only congratulate for your patience :-)

FRED BLOGGS  Funny isn't it how the more people are wrong, the more they get worked up and shout how right they are. I read all this story with awe as I saw the developer trying patiently to get july1962 to understand what his software does, and july1962 just carrying on blindfolded with his opinion of what it should be doing, unable to see the difference between splitting a file, and creating a split archive. July1962 was a very strange month indeed ;-)

ADRIANBOLT  Just wanted to add my support and endorsement for the professionalism of the developer.

ANONYMOUS  The complete redesign of Springy website has rendered forum obsolete. The old Springy Forum is frozen and archived and is not in use any more. However, it is still available in read-only mode, and the updated link where this particular debate can be read is:
