Apple releases OS X 10.8.2 & 10.7.5


OS X catsApple has been busy with a slew of upgrades all timed to come out in sync with iPhone 5 and iOS 6. Apple released OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and OS X Lion 10.7.5. Precursor reminds our customers not to apply this update themselves as we will be updating their systems after testing has completed in our lab environment (nicknamed "muppet labs" - Precursor trivia department).

Tell us you want it sooner rather than later at the Precursor Trouble Report page!


CS6: last chance to save!

CS 6Hey! Before you get too busy this Autumn, did you know that Adobe's upgrade pricing for CS 6 for CS 3 & CS 4 owners expires December 31, 2012? That's right! In 2013 if you want to upgrade from v.3 or 4 you will have to pay FULL PRICE. So plan your upgrade with Precursor this Fall to make sure you save money and have the right hardware and software in place to handle the latest Creative Suite.

FileMaker-licious

FileMaker Business AlliancePrecursor is a member of the FileMaker Business Alliance and we have completed our transition to FileMaker Server 12 to make our hardware, software and trouble report web pages FileMaker-licious. In fact, at Precursor, we use FileMaker for practically everything even including this here newletter. Its also been running parts of our website since FileMaker 6. And so we have gone through many conversions, including Palm OS/ FM Sync / CDML / FMTouch / XSLT / FileMaker Go / and now, PHP. We now have secure and live access to critical company data wherever we are using Mac, PC, iPhone or iPad. It all makes a fascinating story which warm the cockles of your FileMaker heart.
