Hi again, all
This is just a quick little tip for anyone who's having issues updating (like me) This is an issue I had with the last release as well, and it seems to be others who are having the problem, not just me, so I figured I'd stick the really easy fix up here on the site.
If you want to skip the dry humor in the paragraphs below, just skip to the end
So, as a good little Mac-user, you open up your shiny little PS folder icon, and then dutifully run the PS Launch program, which for the first time in history, actually has the icon it's supposed to have, two helpful looking wrenches that look like a strange coat-of-arms of sorts. Immediately after being opened, that speedy little program feeds you a dialogue box asking you whether or not you'd like to be running the correct version of the game, and experience all the wonders of the brand new PS release. A simple "yes" or "no" suffices as an answer for that overeager little program known as PS launch, and after supplying the affirmative, the program begins to give you a live play-by-play of how quickly it's downloading and loading all those new spell animations for your character to admire.
Then, for some reason yet unknown to us higher intellectuals using this wonderful operating system, the application suddenly quits. As you convulse in dismal waves of horror, and wonder how you'll ever manage to survive if you don't have the animation for the update nuke-everybody glyph, never fear, a simple fix is here. Simply deny your PS launch program the joy of receiving that "yes" from you, and go against every "YES, WE CAN" motto you've heard over the past year or so, and click the angry-looking box that says "NO"
After doing this, scroll down to the helpful-looking word "Repair" and depress your trackpad button. Then, after meticulously checking your client with an integrity check, it will again give you a simple yes or no question "Would you like to download the correct copies of these files?" Now, you may finally have the satisfaction of giving that "yes, yes, yes!" answer that you've dreamed of supplying for so long, now.
Ah, now it's time to sit back, relax, and enjoy a few macaroons while you get the new version of your client.
Good job you little tech wizard, you.
If you scrolled all the way down here, and skipped my commentary, here's the quick fix: When asked to update to the correct version in PS launch, say "No", then go down to Repair, and when prompted, click yes. Boo to you for skipping my commentary
