hollister design Studio Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 I've been getting this error quite a bit lately: I have a very fast connection and no issues with any other applications connecting. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment
0 hollister design Studio Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 After a restart it found the update, but then I got this: I restarted again and got the first error. I've restated the computer, the router, and Vectorworks multiple times - each failing updates. ...are there alternative ways to get updates? Quote Link to comment
0 Vectorworks, Inc Employee jblock Posted March 21 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 21 @hollister design Studio the update failing could be caused by a network issue or more likely a permissions issue. Can you submit a support request directly to technical support so we can get more detailed logs and get you up and running with Update 4 ASAP? Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment
0 hollister design Studio Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 @jblock Embarrassingly - I always have to ask - how do I submit a support request again? Quote Link to comment

0 rDesign Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) 1 hour ago, hollister design Studio said: when I try and use the advanced options to download, the download button is greyed out: Unfortunately this is the fault of not-so-great interface design; It's not obvious that it is waiting for the user to do something. You have to click on the folder icon to select your download destination. Then the Download button will become available. [Note to Vw: I think there should be a prompt above the ‘Download Location’ box that says something about the need to select a download folder location. Also see that that on my current Vw 2024 Updater, the folder icon is not even inside the bounding box.] Edited March 22 by rDesign Quote Link to comment
0 Tully Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I've been having the same issue. Is there a solution? Quote Link to comment
0 hollister design Studio Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 @rDesign I did see that, unfortunately I still cant download the update... it just sticks without doing anything. @Tully I did get an email back form tech but i haven't had a chance to read it yet. Quote Link to comment
0 Tully Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 OK, cool. Let me know if you get something figured out... Quote Link to comment
0 Tully Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I managed to get my copy updated by brute-forcing the update. I spent about 10 minutes checking the update over and over again until it showed there was an update and then doing the same thing with the updater. It was beyond frustrating. 1 Quote Link to comment
0 hollister design Studio Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 @Tully i got to the updater, but can't seem to get beyond around 2% Quote Link to comment
0 hollister design Studio Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 this morning the updater said it needed to update. This seemed like a good sign! ...now I'm on an endless "please close Vectorworks first" loop. And yes, I did close Vectorworks, and there is no instance showing in the task manager.
