Coupon code problem.
Hello Yesterday I wanted to order versions with the discount code (all worked fine) but didn't remember my paypal password so did the process again today. But now the discount code doesn't work anymore and I didn't purchase versions app. Regards Frederik --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Versions group.

Re: online reg form VAT and coupon problem
Hey guys I looked into this and I think I fixed the issue. Could you try again? Jools, can you email me (google wouldn't tell your email) and I'll send you an extra coupon code. -Koen On Nov 18, 10:06 am, dajaniel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Same for me too - keen to have this sorted out asap.

This was the case to begin with, then it appeared correctly once, now always red. Possibly this is as a result of aborting the payment process because of the included VAT above.

Re: online reg form VAT and coupon problem
Its my understanding that VAT is charged as per the country of origin. Hence, when you get things from Jersey, etc., you pay less or no VAT. Am I right or completely hallucinating?...

Yep, you pay the local rate.

Coupon code problems? let us help you
Hi Everybody, As some of you noticed we experienced some problems yesterday with our purchasing server. It basically couldn't keep up with everyone who was trying to buy Versions, which was absolutely stunning and unexpected for us. So first of all, thanks to everyone for trying to buy our software! The instructions below are both for people who received a coupon code from Beanstalk and people who received one from us directly. If you had a coupon code, but it didn't work, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the following information, so we can sort things out and get everyone their 10% discount as quickly as possible. If you bought Versions, but didn't receive your 10% discount, include the following information - the email address you used for the paypal transaction - your full name - your coupon code Please use the subject line Purchased, coupon code didn't work. If you tried to buy Versions, but didn't because your coupon code did not work, please include: - your full name and email address - your coupon code and where you obtained it. Please use the subject line Coupon code didn't work, not purchased. If you already sent us an email about problems with your coupon code, there's no need to send another one following the above instructions. We're going through every email we've received so far, the above instructions are just here to help streamline the process and let everyone know what information we need to recover their coupon codes.

Will not let me license..
Hi, I tried sending a support email from the form you provide, but got a Server Error when I submitted the form. I just purchased (2) copies of Versions, 1 for me, and 1 for a co-worker. However, when I try to license them, it says An error occurred. Invalid license key. I copy/pasted from the email I got with the codes, so there should not be any typos. Hopefully support monitors this group, and maybe they are aware that their support email form is currently broken.

Registration stuck at Processing...
I'm having trouble getting my copy of Versions registered. I successfully purchased a license this morning, and received the license code in an email. I then upgraded to v1.0.1, but the upgrade did not complete as expected--it stalled waiting for transactions to complete or something like that. Eventually I killed it. When I started Versions the About Versions dialog reported v1.0.1, so I assume the upgrade when fine despite the botched restart... Now I'm trying to register but it's stalled again. I typed my name and email into the Register Versions dialog, checked I agree to the Terms and clicked Register. And waited... And I'm still waiting nearly an hour later. The top of the registration dialog says Processing... but I'm starting to lose confidence. Please help. ~ Daniel p.s.

workflow with multiple people editing same files
This is a bit of a newbie question, but I cannot get clarity on this, and would like some help. At the moment myself and another are working on the same project, committing our changes to beanstalk using Versions each evening. What is the correct process / workflow for committing these files? I am not sure what the 'update' button actually does, does that attempt to merge repository changes of that file with my file and update, or does it overwrite my local file with the repository version? When do I attempt to merge using FileMerge - before / after / nothing to do with the 'update' button? Should I be pressing 'update' to update my entire working directory before attempting to commit any files? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have been unable to find any solid documentation on how this works with Versions. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Versions group.

Re: Icon overload in version 1
- Showing the changed file counts for all my working copies in the left column. That's just unnecessary. Maybe show me counts only for the one currently selected? I absolutely love this feature, it's a great way to get a birds-eye view of all my code! Although I'm not clear how to tell versions to refresh all the counts... - This is my big one: The color-dot indicators on the folders in the changed view. I do agree with you here - useful in the All Files view, redundant in the Changed view. And the dot-overlay does remind me of TortoiseSVN a bit. - Of course I would be remiss if I did not give a huge bout of praise for the new 1.0 features overall, and the product as a whole.

Saving and opening bookmarks as files.
Versions is nice and friendly. What would be even friendly is to set up server bookmarks as savable files that can be opened by another user and install that bookmark on their copy of Versions. At this little (sarcasm indended) company called Verizon, our team has Mac users in Texas, Boston, New Jersey, New York and India. A problem is the ease of setting up the connection to the SVN server. If I could mail a saved bookmark to all the Versions users and say open this in Versions, click the Update icon and then enter the location for your local copy to start using our new synched database of all our projects, this would be most excellent. I could just mail one file to all new users, buy a copy of Versions and setup is complete. So saving and opening server bookmark files would be a great boon to the operation I'm trying to set up.

I'm loving your products so far. - Alex Zavatone Product Design and Development, Verizon --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Versions group.

After Versions update I loose the repository
Hello I was close to buy Versions but Im not happy with the following situation: Every time Versions has a new update, which I install, I cant access the previous locally installed repository. Further on I cant access my Beanstak Repos again, Versions freezes (need to close it by programm manager). Dropping and recreating the bookmarks would be a nice workaround but I still cant access my local repos, nor my Beanstalk repos. I have to delete the local repos bookmarks and to create a new one, then reimport object folder, but of course all object versions are gone, it looks all new. I cant work that way. I must be able to access older object versions, even after updating Versions itself. Further on it would be great if Versions would support external Harddisks to remove local HD crash, etc. I cant use my Time Capsule. Beanstalk works fine, but 15$ every month while I have an existing Harddisk...

Re: workflow with multiple people editing same files
That's a very in-depth response, Daniel, thank you! I have read through the links you posted and the main realisation that I have come to is that SVN does the clever stuff like merging, versioning, etc., and Versions app just provides a friendly interface to invoke those clever tools. I have a few followup questions though: 1) why does Versions create 3 extra versions of the file if there is a conflict? They kind of get in the way as I always have to modify the main file and dont look at the .mine, .r19, .r20 ? Can it not just say conflict, here's a fileMerge window for you to create a single file from these two ? 2) every time I 'update' do I need to check the log for which files have been updated and compare changes with files I have modified? I don't see when you would use the 'diff' command, apart from times where there has been a specific conflict that Versions notifies of. 3) If myself and my colleague update and commit regularly as we work on the same project throughout the day and never see a 'conflict' error from Versions, can we assume that at the end of the day our work has been merged in both the repository and our working copies without issue? I think I am getting to grips with it, just trying to clear these things in my head. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Versions group.

Can it not just say conflict, here's a fileMerge window for you to create a single file from these two ? If you know which version you want to use, then you can just throw out the file and replace it with one of the 3 versions, which are: Your modified file (.mine) The BASE of your modified file (.r19, i.e., the version you began editing) The updated version of BASE, excluding your changes (.r20 -- the other developer made changes to .r19 and committed, creating .r20). Usually, I just go through the un-extensioned file and resolve the conflicts, but sometimes this isn't possible and you just need to throw it out and use one of those versions (like with images / other binary files). 2) every time I 'update' do I need to check the log for which files have been updated and compare changes with files I have modified? I don't see when you would use the 'diff' command, apart from times where there has been a specific conflict that Versions notifies of. You should just so you know what's going on and pre-empt problems. If there is a conflict where it's not clear how the changes should be merged, svn will let you know, but there's the other kind of conflict where someone changed the file in a way that breaks functionality. 3) If myself and my colleague update and commit regularly as we work on the same project throughout the day and never see a 'conflict' error from Versions, can we assume that at the end of the day our work has been merged in both the repository and our working copies without issue? Yes. Except for issues where your changes conflict in a functional way with theirs (like I said above).

Or, if a bug requires you to rework many files, then you can commit all of the files at once with the message Fixed X bug. It's kind of subjective what a revision is. Best to just try out what works for you. Keep in mind that if you want to revert a single change, you will be reverse merging by revision numbers. It's easier if each revision is a logical change and doesn't combine many changes in one commit that you'll have to sort through after merging.

Re: Poor Performance in 1.0.+
yeah, not to pile it on, but I've spent all day wishing I could have the beta version back (and I did already purchase, would have paid twice the price). updates and commits constantly hang on preparing... i can't quit out of transactions, can't cancel, have to force quit the program. i'd say a simple update then commit has only worked right 30% of the time today. please, you've made me totally dependent on this app! would love a fix!

Starting from scratch - problems that need to be fix for the new user
Ok. I've just set up a brand spanking new SVN server ala terminal. It is empty, there are no files in the repository I have set up. I have Versions up and have created a bookmark to that server. My goal is now to create a Working Directory so that I can populate that empty folder. EVERY folder I attempt to use on my local drive reports it is not a working copy. For someone setting up a server, this is infuriating. Versions needs to be more forgiving and/or point the user in the proper direction in the setup process. FYI, I have set up the server as so: mkdir -p ~/Documents/svn/projects svnadmin create ~/Documents/svn/projects Then I uncommented the access lines and password lines in svnserve.conf and removed leading spaces. A user was added to the passwd file. Then in Terminal... svnserve --daemon --root ~/Documents/svn/projects/ I launched Versions and successfully created and connected to that repository bookmark on that machine. Now, attempting to create a local working copy on any folder on my Mac results in a message like this'/Users/zav/Desktop/Local' is not a working copy. Also, attempting to select the SVN Server Bookmark and perform a check out, to an empty folder on my desktop does not highlight the Checkout button even if the folder is selected. If I type in the name of the folder that is selected, Checkout enables. *** Selecting a folder in the folder/file list below at this point should put the name of the folder in the Save as: text entry field and enable the Checkout button. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Versions group.

Re: Poor Performance in 1.0.+
I purchased 1.0 today after having a great experience with the beta versions. However, I am having the same frustrations with 1.0 and they have made the product unusable. Here are the problems that need to be fixed quickly: • The software is constantly asking me for my username/password for every task that it needs to perform. • The preparing dialogs appear and never complete. • I cannot quit the program without force quitting. I get a message saying Quitting Versions. Waiting for transactions to finish, but it never finishes.

Explaining Versions' activation process
I thought it would be helpful to give everybody who is concerned about Versions' activation system some insight in the actual design of the system and our rationale behind developing it. The two most typical approaches to handling software registration are: (1) Define an algorithm for validating license codes and issue buyers of the software a unique code that, most often combined with a second data field (e.g. your name or email-address), is used by the application to internally calculate if the code is valid. Subsequently: keep track of Serial Surfer and other hubs of pirated license codes to build and maintain an ever-growing blacklist that's included in every subsequent update of the app. (2) Issue a random and unique serial number to every user and store it in a registration server. The application, when registered, asks the registration server if the license code is valid. The second method is referred to as activation, and unfortunately for us, activation has gotten quite a bad name, because a bunch of software companies —mostly some of the really big ones— have been pretty creative in figuring out additional draconian ways to enforce their licensing model. I personally feel that many software publishers have lost touch with the goal of registration: To let people who bought the software use it. We all use a bunch of different software ourselves, and everyone in our team hates it when an application treats us like we're potential criminals. Another thing that's associated with software activation is calling home, meaning that an application, at every launch —or at least frequently— will try to reach its activation server to ask if it is still authorized to run. Versions does not call home and does not ship with any hidden draconic copy-protection measures. When you register Versions, the app contacts our registration server, which —given you entered a valid license code— returns license data that's then stored in a file locally on your computer. This license file is tied to the computer it was registered with, which is the only way to make pirating the software harder than simply copying this license file to another machine. (It's stored in “~/Library/ Application Support/Versions” by the way, the file is named “License”, you can open it up with any text editor to see what's in there). The only —to humans— usable information that's sent to the registration server are the contents of the name and email fields from the registration window. What we can do with that personal information is strictly limited, for the end-user's protection, in the Versions license agreement. We've decided to use an activation-based scheme in Versions for the following reasons: - It takes away any need to create and maintain blacklists, which means we won't have to waste time chasing pirates, when we could otherwise spend that time on improving our app and supporting our customers. - Versions does not need to match a license key with a name and email address. We feel strongly that people should have the right to give their license code away or sell their copy of Versions. With the way we have implemented our registration system, that's possible and the code will just work. - There is no need to implement additional annoying copy-protection measures, such as checks over the local network whether multiple machines are using the same license key. We trust people's own judgement in deciding whether they should use the same license code on a second machine or should buy another license. (Our stance is: if you use a couple of machines by yourself: please go ahead. If your co- workers need copies of Versions, please let them buy their own copies. We updated the Versions license agreement in release 1.0.2 to reflect this). - The biggest thing to keep in mind is that, except for when you replace your Mac's logic board, if you've registered Versions once, it will remain registered. And if you do get your Mac's logic board replaced or buy a new computer, simply re-enter your license key and it will just work. We can't take anybody's ability to use the app away. Software that calls home can stop working at any moment. Software with a built-in license code blacklist could potentially stop working the next time you update to the latest release. Our registration server is configured to allow re-registration within reasonable limits, but will automatically block a license key if it's being used all over the world at the same time. If for any reason your code gets blocked by our server, three members of our team automatically get an email to let them know that someone who might have a legitimate right to activate Versions couldn't, and you'll receive a descriptive error message. If it turns out we get to many of these notifications, or in other words: that our server's limits aren't reasonable enough, we only have to adjust them in one place. And if somehow someone publishes your license key on a warez site and it
Re: Poor Performance in 1.0.+
Wow.. I have just updated from beta to 1.0.2, and the app is sooo sluggish.. WTF happened, folks? I guess it has something to do with Versions updating status of ALL registered working copies in the background. I have about may be 30 or 40 working copies configured in Versions right now, and Versions rally is taking its time to update all of them, bringing my Mac's HD to its knees (iMac's I/O was never very fast to begin with..) Can I have some way to TURN THE GODDAMN SMART FEATURE OFF may be?? BTW, the waiting for transactions to finish most probably is related to the background updating process which you can't stop AFAIK.

Deleting Checkouts Doesn't Actually Delete
One thing I would alter in the UX is when you checkout from a repository it creates a holder in Versions - no problem there. But when you go to delete the bookmark it doesn't prompt or actually delete the files. Maybe you can do something similar to iTunes when deleting in the program it prompts you to delete, but then it asks you if you want to keep the files or not. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Versions group.
