the all new iRealb Pro 5.0

I'm curious about the new mac version which I haven't downloaded yet.

I'd like to know first if anybody is having issues with it?
It's probably okay with Mountain Lion but does it run better with Mavericks?
Any comments on Mavericks. I don't think I'll be able to use it because some of my older apps won't work with it.(like iPhoto 8)

My real fear is it won't work on my SnowLeopard Macbook.
I have version 2.8(3951) and have issues with the repeat window mysteriously having double and triple digit repeats that really slow it down.
The work-around is to loop the whole thing.
It does show up in the app store as downloadable but it want's to charge me $19.99.:eek:
On my Mountain Lion iMac it's a free update?:confused:

Hello Bobsax,
It works on Mavericks and Mountain Lion as well. The update is free, just check if you are logged in to the Mac App Store with the Apple ID that you used for the original purchase.

Thanks Nikki

so does it work with Snow Leopard?

Yes Bobsax, works perfect ;)

Hi Niki
I just downloaded iReal Pro for my Mac and I used the same ID but it looks like I was charged the €17.99
I wouldn't mind paying but it still seems to have the same printing problem as the old iReal Book editor. The music doesn't fill out the whole page. It sits in a box smaller than the page.
The only way I can get the music to fill the whole page is send it to my iPhone and email the PDF to myself.
The play along addition is cool but I doubt I'd use it very often. I mainly used the editor to write and print charts for my original songs.

Hi Nikki
I was able to install the new version but it would not open.
When I went to the app store the button was labeled INSTALL.
When I selected it, it read;
IReal Pro 5.0 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac app store.
Do you want to buy iRealb Pro- again?

When you click on the Apple icon on the top left corner of your screen,then App Store, click on Store/View my account and log in with the Apple ID you used for the original purchase. If it charged you again, you were probably logged in with a different Apple ID.
Please contact Apple for a refund.

To print a whole page: when you open iReal Pro and choose the song you want to print on your Mac, go to Window/Hide sidebar and then Print.
If it's still not full size, you can open it in Preview where you can use the Scale to change it.
I hope this helps ;)

You did purchase it in the Mac App Store,right? Please make a backup of your songs, delete the previous version and install it again from the Mac App Store.
Let me know if it worked.

I may have bought it before the app store was in business.

Before delete anything I just want to give you a little more info.
Finder show that I have both versions on my computer.

The old version is in downloads and opens up when I click on it from the finder. Pro is now in the dock

IRealb Pro is in applications and does not respond to any clicks. Info says it's 34.6 MB so I think it's there.

Okay ..here goes
I am selecting the app from the purchases section of the app store.

I deleted both apps and tried to instal.
It wouldn't work while both apps were in the trash (it said it couldn't open the app from the trash)
so I deleted the trash and now I have nothing): just an icon in the dock with a question mark..
but Finder says it's in applications and is 34MB so it must have downloaded . I'll delete it again ,empty trash , restart and try it again.
The icon with question mark stays in the dock the whole time. I'm dragging it out.

That seems to have done it!!!!
Somehow the icon in the dock was preventing it from installing.

I found one of the tracks with the repeat problem. It had it at 160 repeats.
I was easly able to fix it with the slider (that didn't work in the older version)

Note;
the slider did work with the original older version.
I'm relived it's all working now.
Will report back if anything is odd.
:)

I'm glad it's all good now. Enjoy the app ;)

I'm having no issues on Snow Leopard after using the separate download link in the update window, actually both versions are working, and love the new design and especially chords and scales.

Just can't find what is being listed as the new 'click track' function.

Thanks.

You can set it up in the Mixer. When you click on Drums, you can also select Click/Click 2&4.

Whoop.. there it is. Thanks.

I had the same issue with the question mark in the dock of my Mac, which did not want to start the new IRealb Pro. The answer to the problem is simple: The question mark is still representing the OLD iRealb! So drag it from the dock and instead start the NEW iRealb Pro either from the programms folder or drag the new icon to your dock and start it from there. Works fine...

So is there a way to have a full page view on my iPad like we had with the previous version?, I don't get why it had to become smaller.

iPad questions are better addressed in the iOS thread. (this is the Mac thread)
Admin appears to have deleted the thread addressing your issue.
I recall reading that the latest update would allow the user to set their default display, (full chart vs. player controls)
