Patch for Mac AFPD
I purchased the Mac version of AFPD yesterday and seem to be having the same problems as others on the forum with the software not recognising my transmitter (futaba). I have tried all of the suggestions to no avail including downloading the patch.
All references seem to refer to the patch as 1.11.07.31, but the downloaded file is actually version 1.11.07.29. Is '29' the correct version or is there somewhere that I can download '31' as it's really frustrating not being able to use what looks like a fantastic sim.
Any advice would be really appreciated
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response. I've not posted pictures before so I've no idea if it'll come out!
The error message says "Aerofly Professional has located the USB interface cable but was unable to either find a transmitter connected to the USB interface or a joystick connected to the Gameport"
I downloaded the patch from the Aerofly website.
Many thanks
Simon

The link is: http://www.aerofly.com/afpd/downloads.html
The downloaded patch is definitely 1.11.07.29 but when I checked the upper right corner of the screen when the sim is open it gives version 1.11.07.31 !! I guess this means that it should now work with the USB link but sadly not!
Hope the pictures work this time.
Many thanks

RE: Patch for Mac AFPD
Sorry, me again!
I've just been reading another thread where someone had a similar problem and you thought it was due to an old interface cable being supplied with the sim. Here's a photo of mine - is this the old one or should it work?
Thanks
Simon

RE: Patch for Mac AFPD
Simon, pls do not post confidential info such as your serial number on the net. I have removed one of your photos on this. Where did you purchase the AFPD mac from? Did you purchase the Futaba adapter cable separately? The adapter cable does not seem to be the one from Ikarus

RE: Patch for Mac AFPD
Mike. Sorry for that.
I purchased the AFPD Mac from Pegasus Models in Norwich UK. The box only contained the buff coloured USB cable. The black Futaba adaptor cable was purchased separately from the same shop.
Cheers

Hi Mike
I bought an Ikarus cable as suggested and have checked that my radio is in PPM - still no luck. Could it be that I need thenew style usb interface cable?

I shipped my USB interface cable to Ikarus 10 days ago and haven't heard anything yet. Do you have any idea what their turnaround time is?
Thanks

RE: Patch for Mac AFPD
Hi Mike
I received an invoice from Ikarus today for 37.40 Euros for my USB interface cable.
Surely I shouldn't have to pay for this as the original one supplied by them was faulty/an incorrect item.
Please could you advise as to how I should proceed as I've already paid a lot of money for something which doesn't work.
Thanks

RE: Patch for Mac AFPD
Hi Mike
The replacement USB interface cable arrived today from Ikarus - thank you for you help with this.
Unfortunately when I connect the cable and open AFPD it ask me for the product key. I entered the product key on the original DVD and it says: "ERROR (60224) This product key has already been registered" in red and will not let me proceed further.
Does this now mean I need a new product key or a new DVD?
I'd be most grateful for you advice
Thanks

Hi Mike
Will Ikarus send me a new product key or do I still use the original one after they have reset it?
Thanks
Simon
