Feb 2, 2012 – Yesterday afternoon Apple released “Security Update 2012-001” for Snow Leopard. We strongly recommend that you DO NOT install this update. We have discovered that this update causes Diamond to crash when an Open or Save dialog is prompted. This will affect several places in Diamond including, backup, importing, selecting a label command file, print dialog, etc.

To fully prevent the update, please select the update in the Software Updates window and go to Update>Ignore Update. See screenshot below.

We, and several other software companies, have submitted bug reports to Apple as this is something they will need to fix on their end.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

POS-IM is a small business based in Kaysville, Utah that was started in 1986. A father and son team of entrepreneurs developed a POS system for their own retail store and realized that other small businesses also needed a similar product to help run their stores. Point of Sale is a business term for tools used at the actual sales traction like cash registers or product scanners.

Since POSIM Diamond is being replaced by POSIM EVO we are NOT going to make POSIM Diamond compatible with Mac OS X Lion. The ultimate resolution will be for you to convert to POSIM EVO. The conversion process has already been opened up and you can request to convert at anytime (depends on availability of our Sales Reps and Tech Support). Until you are able to upgrade to EVO you will need to stay on your current version of the Mac OS (Up to 10.6 – Mac OS X Snow Leopard) to run POSIM Diamond.

POSIM EVO has been tested and will work great on 10.7 (Mac OS X Lion). POSIM EVO was specifically programmed with the concept of the consistently changing Mac OS in mind, to ensure in the future we don’t need massive programming changes with each new version.
