Thank you! So far it runs. I've not tried connecting to any hosts yet. If I have any issues I'll leave a new comment here. As a precaution I've kept a copy of the b11 beta just in case.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, the MINI license allowing only up to 30 connections to be added to the address book is a known issue in Viewer for Mac/Linux which will be fixed in the nearest update. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if you have more questions.

Hi. Will this known limitation/bug be removed/solved somewhen in the near future? A new version released in the past week but I still can't add more than 30 devices with my MINI licence.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

The issue that had restricted MINI license users from adding more than 30 remote Hosts to their Viewer's for Mac/Linux address books was already fixed in the latest update.
Could you please double-check if your Viewer for Mac/Linux is updated to the latest version 1.0.12.q Beta 12? In addition, please note that we've re-built the files for beta 12 release just 3 days ago in order to implement a quick-fix for another issue, so just in case please also try re-downloading and re-installing the latest version of Viewer for Mac/Linux once again. The installation file for the latest version of Viewer for Mac/Linux is available for download here.

Hope that helps.

I'm very pleased with the 1.0.12.q Beta 12 upd ate. In my experience the program has ceased it's periodic crashes and the auto-reconnect feature makes this an essential update over all previous Linux Viewers. Good things come to those who wait.

I was wondering if the bug that caused the Linux Viewer to corrupt data while editing a remote address book was resolved? I have not tested this myself yet, I just remember it being an issue for me in the past and the solution for me was to se t the Linux Viewer user account to Read Only and use the native Windows Viewer to manage the remote address book.

Many thanks,
Nijel
