Mac install problems

07-24-2004, 04:07 PM

I am trying to install Marine Aquarium v2.0 on my Mac G5 OS x.

I get a white column going through the center running from top to bottom of the "aquarium" screen.

I purchased this at the Apple store. No where does it allow me to register it and no where does it ask for a key code of any kind. In fact, it acts if it is a trial copy..but it's not!

Any ideas?

The CD is the keycode.

To fix the white column, please download Marine Aquarium 2.0.4 for Mac OS X from http://www.serenescreen.com/ . It should ask you to insert the CD you bought at the Apple store and then work as a full-featured version.

Morgan is almost entirely correct, with one small detail wrong. The latest version available for download for Mac OS X is 2.0.6.

Once you've installed the latest version, insert the CD you purchased and launch MA (the application or the screen saver). The CD will be recognized in place of a keycode. Subsequent launches on the same machine will not require the CD (it's a one-shot registration, just like entering a keycode).

Let us know if you have any further questions or run into any other difficulties.
