When? OSX Mavericks Update for Media Pro?
Could we please request from PhaseOne, 'when' or 'if' we can expect an update for OSX Mavericks, so that Media Pro can be used with the most up-to-date operating system for Mac?
There are some substantial issues in Media Pro if you try to use it in Mavericks, and those of us who use programs like Photoshop (and others) have updated to Mavericks to stay up with the state of the art. I used to use Media Pro and then go to Photoshop to further edit photographs, but I can't do that using Mavericks (because P.O. admit that Media Pro is "not fully compatible" with OSX Mavericks. So, I have to downgrade to OSX 10.6.8 to use Media Pro, but I should upgrade to Mavericks (10.9) to use the latest Photoshop?
So far, I'm trying to use Media Pro on an old computer and exporting to my newest computer for Photoshop, but this is ridiculous. This is an impossible situation to put us in, when I believe a large number of users do something similar when using M.P..
I also posted that there is a strange unwanted scrolling that occurs whenever you try to use a graphics tablet with M.P..
We need an updated program!

Good luck with the request. A ticket in P1's system probably gives you more chance.
What is not working for you between MP and Mavericks? I'm curious, since i'm using both together and i'm not seeing issues because of that.
I've seen your post about the tablet issues, but i remember that it's been confirmed in that thread that this doesn't seem to be caused by Mavericks.0 -
My issues are two:
1. The tablet issue, where the program scrolls whenever you lift your pen out of range (you only have about 3/4" and it scrolls on you). And M.P. is the only program where I've ever seen this happen.
2. The program regularly (but not predictably) crashes when I am moving (sorting) image files into their respective folders. (For example, I have photos of several models, all on one memory card, and they need to be sorted into a folder for just that model.) M.P. crashes often when I'm doing this simple sorting from one folder into another.
3. I'd love to see better editing tools, to allow the use of M.P. when just trying to make a series of images a bit closer in color balance, exposure, etc. The tools are very coarse, and fine adjustments are impossible.
But it would also just be nice to know if PhaseOne is going to keep the program current, or if we should just abandon ship now. It is just the only program where it is so easy to organize and move images into a custom order!0 -
I have never experienced 2. Are you doing this from memory card, or are you copying tot disk first (that's what i do, sort of inbox).
I hope they don't do 3, it's supposed to be a cataloging program.
I, too, would like to know where P1 are heading with this.
