ArraySync Activation Server Fixed
Someone brought to my attention that ArraySync was no longer activating for them. I looked into the issue and it appears the hosting provider for the activation server automatically updated PHP to 7.x, which broke the activation scripts. I have now rolled it back to PHP 5.6 and the activations should be working again. Sorry […]
ArraySync is now FREE!
Grab your free activation serial at http://www.nasolab.com/arraysync/buy.html We are no longer selling new licenses of ArraySync as we prepare to transition to a completely new version with a different pricing model, which will be rebranded as FloSync to better reflect all the great things you can do with the software. Because FloSync will offer all the […]
macOS High Sierra and 32-bit Apps
Apple today released macOS High Sierra 10.13.4, and with it a new feature that warns of impending obsolescence of 32-bit apps, including ArraySync. For now, ArraySync will continue to function normally throughout the High Sierra update cycle, albeit with a one-time warning that it is a 32-bit app. Future macOS versions beyond High Sierra are […]
QuickTime on Windows
Recently the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team issued Alert (TA16105-A), which recommends Windows users uninstall Apple QuickTime from their computers. Unfortunately ArraySync for Windows requires QuickTime to function. While we are working on a successor to ArraySync that uses native Windows video decoding (no QuickTime) it is not available at this time. We hope to have this […]
Windows 10… and yes I’m still here!
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted to this blog. Windows 10 came out yesterday and I’m pleased to report that ArraySync appears to work fine on our test machines. Please be wary of Windows 10 update breaking your video card drivers which I’ve read has happened to people. If your video card is not compatible […]
Problems with Spaces on Mac OS X Mavericks
If you have a Mac with multiple displays, you might encounter a problem where ArraySync only seems to play video on one of them. To fix this, go to System Preferences and choose the Mission Control tab. From there, disable “Displays have separate spaces” and you should be good to go!
Automatically start and stop ArraySync servers and clients
How to automate the ArraySync startup process is by far the #1 question I receive on the tech support email and forum. I have created two scripts with Automator. One will launch ArraySync server, wait twenty seconds (to ensure the application launches fully especially on cold boot) and then start the server. The other script […]
Mac Activation Troubles – Update with Solution
Okay, so earlier today I noticed some people who had recently purchased ArraySync directly from us (rather than the Mac App Store) were sending like 30+ activation requests which is way unusual. A quick check on my newly updated Mac system has shed some light on what’s going on. ArraySync saves your authentication data inside […]
ArrayShaker is now free
ArrayShaker, the utility for splitting up videos into different segments, is now free for the time being. Enjoy!
Apple, the App Store, and Company Name Change Policy
Warning, I’m about to rant about a particularly frustrating issue that may affect some of our customers. Years ago when I first developed iForum for iPhone, I uploaded it under the App Store account for “Avianware, Inc” – a company started by myself and two other developers who were all developing apps independently but pooled […]
