automatic updates

Post by SWY »

Hi,

I am Mac user.

I updated Jamovi manually by downloading the 1.0.8 version.
But I thought if I click on the automatic update on the preferences, the program updates its new version
automatically,.

Do I have to upgrade the software every time the updated version is posted?
Moreover, I cannot open the new version 1.1.7.

PS : my current OS status is Catalina.

hi,

currently, the automatic update only updates you to 'solid' versions.

if you're using 'current', then on macOS, you need to update manually.

cheers

What does "solid" version mean exactly, Jonathon?
