Kramy	Wow - long time coming... I finally added this to our PAQ: http://plasq.com/comiclife/paq/ Thanks for the suggestion Sean
Sean Balkwill	I can confirm that Kramy's method works. Btw, some people might not know that you choose to open CL in Rosetta from the "get info" screen of the CL application. Then save the file you had trouble with, go back and uncheck the Rosetta box and the newly saved file will open correctly natively. You guys should put this in the PAQ, it's not something most people would figure out on their own. Thanks. It saved me a lot of work on something I was redoing.

However, all of the machines that I'm trying to open the comics with are non-Intel.. is there any way I can make them work from there? Sorry - if the file was created on an Intel machine, it has to be opened on an Intel machine (created 1.2.x). There is no work-around in this situation. Apologies I can't be of anymore help -- unless you want me to try opening one of your comics up on an intel Mac? Contact us using the contact page. Thanks!

Jesse	As I recall, we originally had trial versions of 1.2.. I updated them to 1.3.3, and then entered the registration code. I'll try to hunt down a file that has the problem. Any solutions so far?
Kramy	Leith, thanks for sending that through. The comic you sent through is definitely related to the PPC/Intel issue. Where if a file was created on a PPC Mac and opened on an Intel Mac the file would not load properly. I take it you have just got some new Intel-type Mac's in the last few weeks? This has been fixed in 1.3.3 - where all NEW files are transferable between both PPC and Intel Mac's. However, this can be solved - if you resave the .comic file on the original type processor it was created in (or in rosetta emulation). The file I attached was fixed by opening up the File in Rosetta mode (on Intel Mac) and resaving in the .comicdoc format. This can now be opened up on both PPC Mac's and Intel Mac's. So to solve the problems, you need to do this for the original .comic files -- open on native processor and resave to .comicdoc format. Please try with the file you sent me to see what I mean... Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need anymore information.
