Update Release: 6.1.04 Available

We issued Specify 6.1.04 last night to fix a few recent issues, including the MAC OS database update problem. Registered users will automatically discover the update on Specify startup, other installations should use the Specify "Check for Updates" menu to download and run the updater. Many thanks to our clients who helped identify and diagnose these bugs.

Specify 6.1.04 Resolved Issues:

  1. Fixed the upgrading problem from 6.1.00 to 6.1.03 on Mac OS X.
  2. Tab delimited file exports are now being stripped of new-line and return-line characters.
  3. Made it unnecessary for the user to enter Specify IT user credentials for new version updates which do not modify Specify’s database structure.
  4. Improved debugging for errors regarding the attachment directory.
  5. The Specify WorkBench no longer identifies itself as an Invert Paleo discipline application.
  6. Manager-level users can now see all of the data on forms.
