PsyncX no longer active or supported (10.15.2011)
Reluctantly, I've been coming to the conclusion that maintaining PsyncX isn't viable long-term, either on my end or technologically. It's hard to imagine this tool's been around since 2003.
With a growing business on my hands, I'm also facing
- code that isn't supported / updated /maintained any longer by its original programmer (he recommends we move to using rsync)
- code that doesn't run on 64-bit machines, which is what Apple is heading to for all their computers
- code that uses Carbon, which will be phased out by Apple at some point soon
- a decrease in spare time to keep working on PsyncX for free
With all of that said, PsyncX is officially unsupported. It will run (and continue to run) on Mac OS X 10.4 and (if you follow the psync complication instructions at the bottom of the About page), it should run successfully on 10.5 as well. 10.6 may not work, depending on the processor you use (if you have a 64-bit processor, as I do, it doesn't compile). And with 10.7, I doubt it will work at all.
Thanks for the support and emails over the years, it's been fun. But it looks best for us all if we move on.
