Desktop 2008

Icon Packager

I am not sure but it does not appear to me that I am getting the latest Program updates mentioned in the video presentation of OD 2008. To be specific I still have the old user interface for IP. I have been installing all the latest updated that come to me via SDC but I have not done anything new to update to OD 2008. I'm very confused...my subscriotion is still valid. Any thoughts as to why I have not received the latest version of IP. My current installation is 3.99.143 x86. Is there something I'm suppose to be doing?

Disregard...I solved my problem. It has to be done from Impulse not SDC to get the new IP interface.

Nice to see you around anyway Duke! Glad you got it resolved. I haven't upgraded to 2008 Ultimate yet because I'm still building on my new Vista box. But I tell you what, I'm hot to get my hands on it!

Stay tuned...

I have a related question. When do existing OD subscribers get updated to the new version? It doesn't seem to be available through Stardock Central. At least not yet. Am I not doing something that I need to do to get the upgrade? Thanx.

If you have all the current updates for Object Desktop then you already have the latest updates.

Ekimragz...that is the same problem I was talking about. If you want the new version of IP you have to get it through Impulse. Here is what I did...
Forget about SDC for the time being.
1 Download & Install Impulse from the link provided in reply 1 above.
2 Open Impulse & select the My desktop tab at top.
3 Select Icon Packager.
4 Uninstall Iconpackager
5 Reinstall Icon Packager from Impulse
6 Run Icon Packager and the version will now have the new interface.

This is what worked for me. I tried installing IP from SDC several times & could not get the new interface eventhough I was getting the most current update from SDC. Hope that helps...that is what worked for me.
