Get updates

To automatically install the latest updates and patches to CcpNmr Analysis, go to the CcpNmr Software Updates popup, accessible through M: Project: Updates:

This popup works as the normal mechanism of receiving incremental changes and fixes to bug reports between numbered CCPN releases. It should be noted that this system generally only provides fixes for the most recent version. If your version is older or if there has been a recent new release then the updating mechanism will on command automatically upgrade the whole CCPN distribution to the newest one:

It should be noted that this mechanism will not automatically update some of the really old versions, e.g. from version 1.0 to 2.0. Updates from 2.0 onwards ought to work seamlessly though.

In normal operation the user clicks [Select All] then [Install Selected] in the CcpNmr Software Updates popup, whereupon the software should be restarted (not forgetting to save any data). Naturally, viewing and receiving updates requires that the user’s computer has a working connection to the Internet. Although the user may toggle individual file updates on or off by double-clicking in the |Install?| column, it is generally not a good idea to choose only a subset of file updates unless there is a specific reason to do so. Choosing only some file updates risks getting problems where two or more files rely upon the most recent versions of one another. The [Refresh List] button will cause the system to re-query the CCPN update server if the user is awaiting an imminent fix.
