Hi to all those that did a test of my Music In the Air program some days ago on your Mac.
I think I have fixed the installation problem. Would you do a quick test to see if it runs now? https://artsinteractive-products.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/MITA/TestVersion/MITA-installer-mac-china.dmg I found a variety of anomalies that might have contributed to the problem, but I’ll wait to see if it’s better now… Thanks!
