Hoster 4.10 Release

[Musicman51]

Rikki thank You for your wonderful imput, i'll just go back to my ole stand by JVC. I'm not even sure what you and dale are talking about. And there are others on here with more urgent issues then george's computer 101. I wouldn't know where to begin to make a restore point. The more i have been pondering this situation, i'm starting to think perhaps this new computer technology and software stuff just may not be for me. So, i have decided to just go back to disc, sell the laptop, and erase my hard drives. It's just too frustrating. But thank you all for your help, and wonderful friendship and patients with me. I'm satisfied i gave it a try, time to move on. Thank You, Your friend George

i hope you don't mind me putting in my 10 cents, but since you are going back to using disc, if i were you i wouldn't sell the laptop, you could just try what Rikki & Dale suggested on your spare time..or till the new upgrade is released..doing a system restore is so easy..just click on : start..control panel..performance/maintenance and when a window comes up on the right top you'll see " system restore" and when the system restore window comes up you'll see a box with a green marked " restore my computer to an earlier date" click on next and a calendar will popped up with bold #and just choose a date...i know it's frustrating but you spent so much time and money buying your laptop and some other gears just to go to waste..

George,

Dont give up on me yet!!! We want to get you going, and the challenges that you will overcome, will further the ease in which you use that tool, we call a computer... I don't want to see you drag your JVC and discs around, anymore than I want to do it myself anymore..

I've got to step out... but I'll be back with you later today... let's work on getting you where you can work with this program without any great anxiety issues...

Music Man, I looked at the picture of your screen and have had that happen to me if I try to do ANYTHING after I start Hoster until EVERYTHING has loaded for the program and my background picture appears on the screens. Is this when it happens to you? Just a thought. And Yes, I am running VISTA.

Ok George,
First, have you experimented with establishing a Restore Point? As Billyo, and others will attest too... it will give you peace of mind, knowing that anything we do after that point in time, can be reversed, and we can get back to ground zero, by going to the restore point, when everything was working correctly... Also how have you been protecting your downloaded music ( KMA's)? Are all kma's being backed up, or copied, so you have at least two copies of all of your kma's protected, and cloned in your external hardrives? After you do these two things, both of us will have that peace of mind!

Have you used private messaging before? ( Click on the PRIVATE MESSAGES line, just under your login information, up in the right hand corner of the Forum section ) I've sent you a short message, so we can converse one on one, or as I would prefer, let's keep it out here in public, where there are all kinds of helpers, more experienced than I, that are just chomping at the bit, to try and help you troubleshoot your problem!

Let me know what time is best for you to sit down for a concentrated effort online, to get you goin' again... I'm on mountain standard time ( Az ), and will adjust to Michigan time so we can coordinate a convenient time for the both of us!

*Please note that a new Hoster Lite download for fixing your "Bug" is awaiting you in reply to your trouble ticket... try downloading the Hoster Lite Upgrade, and see if it indeed works!

Rikki that was not the fix for his problem. His problem is he can not import because Hoster doesn't recognized certain drives. It has been fixed but is in 4.10 which isn't released yet.

I saw that Support (Brian) sent it today, so I assumed that the fix for George's problem was incorporated in whichever 4.09x version was there... also because of what the support ticket implied... MY BAD...

Oh my goodness, i just got back in town from work, checked my email and mtu forum was 10 replies long and a private message, thank you so so much everyone. I have read all of your replies, and i think you guys are really neat. This is truly a great forum. Rikki, dale is correct, in that the link sent to me, was not a fix for my particular situation. I was under the impression that it was as well rikki, and why mtu support sent it to me i haven't a clue, or what it does. I did install it, hope that didn't hurt anything, still seems to play and everything. Also JNS02, yes i allow Hoster to fully boot up. There is...nothing to do on my laptop untill hoster boots up. And that includes the splash screen. If the hoster splash screen doesn't appear, i close and reopen hoster. Gotta have that splash screen. Rikki i will read your personal private message, and tomorrow wed, get back to you. It's wonderful of you guys to help me get my new disc into hoster.
Respectfully Yours, George

You can install Microstudio on 2 computers just like Hoster.

Now, how do i go about getting my second copy of Microstudio? Do i go into my account and copy the link there? Also what other info do i need? And i am using Hosterlite, so i only get 1 copy of Hoster
