Discus for Mac4.26

May I ask anyone running Discus in Fusion or Parallels if any special procedure was required? Trying to run it on a new Mac Pro, but it crashes upon launch in both applications (trial versions).

According to developer's website, they are ADAMANT that Discus will not be updated to 64-bit to run on Catalina. Actually, it's more than just a matter of simply recompiling; Discus is written using Carbon API, which dates back to 'classic' Mac System OS (remember System 9?). To support Catalina, the app would have to be totally rewritten in the modern Cocoa framework, a major undertaking which may not be supported by current revenue from sales. I still use Discus, running in a VMWare Fusion virtual machine image of macOS Mojave, and that works fine, so if you have ability to run virtual machines (Parallels or VMWare Fusion), that is an option.

Not compatible with OS Catalina. Advised they are not sure at this point if they will update the app to run under Catalina

Discus is back !!! Love this app! By far the best and most fun I've ever had making covers for CD and DVD jewel cases.

I have used Discus for a long time. It is a must-have utility, as I can load Discus and make a quick sign, poster, or CD label before Photoshop has finished loading its plugins. Speed and focus are its great strengths, and although I mostly use it for my DVD backups, i do appreciate the thousands of built in paper labels it supports. Also it has a cross-platform file format, and you get both a mac and windows version on the same disc for a single price; I wish more companies did this, I hate having to buy all my adobe products twice.

I've used Discus for years and the program has a lot of features, but it still has a very un-Mac like interface which may not appeal to everyone.

Does anyone else get a 'codec overun' error whilst trying to mount the .dmg?

I've used this program for the last 5 years.... It just keeps getting better and better. It is now a truly beautiful and fun app to work with... makes labelling a joy rather than tedium. There are so many options and ways to use your creativity and the interface makes its easy ... This is leaps and bounds ahead of any other labelling program ... Do yourself a favour and try this program out .. Worked flawlessly with my DVD printer ...

It's been a long wait but now we have the best labeling program back, and with many great new features (and they work!). Please disregard my previous comments.

The new upgraded program has finally arrived!!...and it crashes if you use the history function...and it won't allow you to reselect text...completely worthless at this point. What's happening guys? We wait for almost a year and get this?
