MacJournal 5.1.3b4

Get it now.

It's a modest list of improvements, but then again, it is a modest release overall. A few minor UI fixes, some new hidden prefs, and a fix for Japanese blogging servers round up the list of changes. This release has been a bit slow because I've been working on future releases at the same time, but expect the final release soon.

MacJournal 5.1.3b3

Get it here.

I intended for this to be the final release, but it's going to have to be a beta for now. I don't expect anything to change between now and then, and "then" is hopefully next week. There's not much in this build either: an AppleScript fix, and import fix for RTFDs with attachments stored externally, a entry deletion fix for WordPress, a fix for Full Screen key equivalents in the F1-4 range, and better error reporting for backup issues. That's about it. Let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.3b2

Get it here.

This release should fix LiveJournal interactions with a few other tweaks. This should hopefully be the last beta, but let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.3b1

Get it here.

This is the first beta of 5.1.3. This is intended to be a very small and quick release, hopefully out this month while I work on some other things in tandem. This release contains all the fixes that I want to do already, so I suspect there will only be a handful of changes between now and the final releases.

There are fixes for some bugs in the UI, blogging, and searching.

MacJournal 5.1.2

MacJournal 5.1.2 is out now! Get it here now, or from the Help menu's Update item. There are a lot of improvements over 5.1.1 in the areas of text editing, blogging, syncing and more. Over the last beta, there are fixes relating to blogging, some improvements in UI layout, and improvements to the Dutch localization.

MacJournal 5.1.2b6

Get it here.

This release fixes a pasting bug introduced in the last beta and improves the reliability of "Send to iWeb". It also improves the layout of the Info bar and adds a "Save a Copy As" menu item (for English users right now, everyone else when they get updated again).

There is also a new logging facility to collect information about file operations that take place, e.g. importing and exporting entries, saving entries, etc. You can turn this on in the Hidden Preferences in the last tab as "Log document file actions". If you are seeing a problem where your data file gets inordinately large (several GB), please let me know as this will be useful.

MacJournal 5.1.2b5

Get it here.

This beta fixes a crash or two, improves creating an entry in iCal, improves entry templates, and improves printing. My hope is to get the final release out next week, if all goes well.

MacJournal 5.1.2b4

Get it here.

Another round of syncing changes accompanies a few changes for smart journals, discovering links, and recovering entries.

If you are having trouble syncing and a normal reset from the System Preferences does not work, use these steps to perform a complete reset of syncing on your machine:

1. Close all applications.


2. Trash the Library/Application Support/SyncServices folder.


3. Restart your machine.


4. Open MobileMe system preference pane.


5. Re-enable syncing. You will have to pull everything down from the server again.

Please let me know if those that were having trouble have any more success with this release.

MacJournal 5.1.2b3

Get it here.

This beta has a few fixes for editing, importing, and syncing. It also adds back the floating calendar window. Let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.2b2

Get it here.

This beta has some syncing changes and a crash fix or two. Check it out and let me know if you have any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.2b1

Get it here.

5.1.2 is expected to have a fairly short release cycle (I hope). It's got a few bug fixes for blog posting, data syncing, text editing, and a few other things. Try it out and let me know if you have any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.1

The final version is out. Download it from Mariner. The in-application updates will be updated tomorrow to start offering it there as well if you want to wait for that. There aren't many differences versus the last beta, but there are a few bug fixes, a new Danish localization, and no expiration date.

I'll post more on future plans in the coming days.

MacJournal 5.1.1b5

Get it here.

Beta 4 contained some good bug fixes but it also contained some regressions that caused problems. So, enter beta 5 to fix the regressions. If this works out, this will be the last beta and we will release 5.1.1 to the general public. Let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.1b4

Get it here.

Here comes beta four of 5.1.1. It has a fix for a bug that I've been chasing for a while, so I hope to get the final 5.1.1 out soon to get the collected bug fixes available to everyone as soon as possible. Let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.1b3

Get it here.

This is the third beta release of 5.1.1. It's got several fixes in different places, including blogging, syncing, and general app usage. Let me know if you have any issues with it.

MacJournal 5.1.1b2

Download it here.

This release has a few fixes for blogging, Tiger issues, and other assorted problems. There is also some syncing experimentation for Leopard users. If you are on Leopard and use MobileMe syncing, please let me know how it works for you. As this is intended to be a fairly short beta cycle, I hope to get the final release out soon.

MacJournal 5.1.1b1

Download it here.

This release is to fix a few problems that popped up after the release of 5.1. It has a crash fix, a few localization tweaks, and Blogger download improvements. The goal is a fairly short release cycle for this one. If you have any problems with this release, please let me know.

MacJournal 5.1 is here

Download it here.

This is the final release of MacJournal 5.1. If you've been following the betas all along, not much will be new. But if you're coming from 5.0.4, there are some nice new things. I think the three biggest things are the "three-pane view", editable entry windows, and Karelia's Media Browser window. Let me know of any problems you find. I will update the in-application update mechanism soon as well if you just want to wait for that.

Note: If you saw it posted yesterday and downloaded it then, it may have been the incorrect build. A bad disk image was posted yesterday but has been corrected now. It was just beta 9, expiration date and all. Re-download using the link above to get the real 5.1.

MacJournal 5.1b9

Get it now.

While we prepare the final release of 5.1, here is a new beta to extend the expiration date. There are a few bug fixes in this release over beta 8 and it should be very similar to the final release soon.

MacJournal 5.1b8

Get it here.

This is the eighth beta. This contains various bug fixes, localization tweaks (including a new Italian localization), and one UI change in particular: .Mac is now MobileMe. Search is fixed, as are some issues with MetaWeblog servers. There is a fix for a crash when synchronizing Palm devices. There are some various other fixes as well that are detailed in the Version History. There aren't any new features as 5.1 is feature complete already. Providing more localizations is also a goal for this release. Please let me know if you have any problems with this beta.
