Updating the app

Last Updated: Nov 08, 2011 08:29AM GMT
In order to improve our broadcasters' experience of Mixlr, from time to time we release improvements to our broadcasting app in the form of updates.

We try to make the process of upgrading as easy as possible. This guide is intended to help you if you run into problems while upgrading.

1. Windows
2. Mac OS X

If you have problems updating, you can always download a standalone copy of the latest Mixlr app here.


Windows

If an update is available, when you open the app you'll see a screen like this:



If you're not ready to update yet, click Remind me later. To give our broadcasters time to update, we allow a couple of weeks before this option disappears.

When you're ready to update, click Update now. You should see a dialog appear like this one:



To continue, click on Install Update. Mixlr will open your web browser, like Internet Explorer or Google Chrome, and download the new version of Mixlr.

Sometimes, it's difficult to see the download. If you get stuck, just download the latest version of Mixlr in this browser by clicking here. Then, follow the steps below.

In your browser, confirm the download and open Mixlr.exe:



Confirm that you want to run the app: don't worry about the security warning.



Finally, you'll see the usual Windows installation options. Install the update, and you'll be ready to go!
