Files Pro [CLOSED]

Post by don » Mon Mar 21, 2016 11:52 pm

Good day,

After I got my Files Pro upgraded through App Store to 1.1.1 I started to get the following pop up with Files:

---------------------
This is a trial version of Files manager.
After a period of one month you must have
a version from App Store installed on your hard drive or delete Files manager from this computer.

This window appears only in trial version.
---------------------

What can I do to fix this?

Hi don!

That looks like some issue during MAS installation process, does your Files Pro copy works now?
Also, can you please check that it's location is at /Applications (i.e. /Applications/Files Pro.app/)?

Mike.

Files Pro works, no issues. But I am not using it that much. I am with Files mainly (due to the added functionality).

The location is correct too:

What should I do - reinstall?

That is strange even more..
Can you please show output of the following command?

Code: Select all

ls -l /Applications/Files\ Pro.app/Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt

It seems the file is missing:

Code: Select all

[ ~ ] # ls -l /Applications/Files\ Pro.app/Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt
ls: /Applications/Files Pro.app/Contents/_MASReceipt/receipt: No such file or directory
[ ~ ] # ls -al /Applications/Files\ Pro.app/Contents

OK. Problem solved.

The issue was that even though "Files Pro" has been installed physically on the hard drive (and was working correctly!), it was listed as "Not Installed" in the app store. I guess the latest upgrade kind of removed it....

Anyway - I clicked "Install" in the app store and the required license file seems to have been installed anew.

After the install (please check the timestamps):

Code: Select all

[ ~ ] # ls -al /Applications/Files\ Pro.app/Contents

Well, seems I need to add a receipt checking in AppStore version :)
Anyway, issue was solved, closing the topic.
