Re:Comic Life won't re-open comics prope - 2007/05/25 15:43 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. News, hints and sock puppet antics - Sign up to our mailing list: http://plasq.com/register

Jesse Visitor	Re:Comic Life won't re-open comics prope - 2007/05/30 06:14 The PPC-Intel issue could well be the source of my problems as well.. students submitted the comics from a variety of machines (I don't have any way to know). 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.
