Media Cat Chain Letter

[mortalitool]

Hey fellas, i got the mediacat copy in the mail just today. i found where the service and technical information is...is there a place to find the IPL's?

Thanks in advance

 

[HarleyT]

when the program loads what do you see?

 

[mortalitool]

It pops up on the screen. I clicked open folder to view files. It then opens in windows folder. I can see the service manuals and technical information.....just no IPLs

 

[HarleyT]

You need to have a copy, that when you pop in the cd, it loads itself, and you let it load itself.

 

[HarleyT]

then whenever you want the program, you click on the icon on the desktop, and it loads and shows the menu.

 

[mortalitool]

Gotcha. I don't think I have that copy. I can't get mediacat to actually load. Throws me an error message when I run the setup

You have that version? Could I get it from you? Is that even possible?

 

[HarleyT]

Yeah, I beg these guys to just do a straight disc copy using their computer's dvd suite, but these guys insist on fondling their files and whatnot. I'll have to dig around
for my hard copy, if I still have it. I have been using our shop's Stihl website access for everything now, so I am not even sure where it is.

Hopefully someone in line that owes a couple of copies will step up and do their duty... But I'll look for it anyway. Anyone else have a copy?

I appreciate the feedback and help harleyT. I have been waiting on the disc to come. Came today and I was like a kid in the candy store. I have so much stihl things to work on that having the full version would help me out so much. If you find it just PM me and we can go from there.

The disc I got today came on a cd-r disc. Does that matter?

 

[HarleyT]

Yeah when you get it up and going, it is great. It also has a part search feature. You type in a part number, it tells you which models that the part came out on and a link to that actual ipl.

Wow. That is sweeeet. I will pay money to have that particular version. I'm a man in need! Thanks harley

If the disc that it was copied from was a cd too, that is fine. Does it tell you a year? Mine is a 2012, if I can find it.

OK.

Not sure on year. Wanna say its 2010 or 2011?? I'll have to fire up the PC tomorrow and take a look

 

[HarleyT]

It was set up so no money would be involved, so the lawyers wouldn't have that to biatch about.

Right right.

Maybe I purchased a "part" from you though

 

[HarleyT]

I'll look.

It would be best if those that are next in line would forward good copies like they are supposed to.

 

[mortalitool]

I'll look.

I agree. And thanks!!

If you do find it and I end up with a copy I will do my duty and forward it on to the next in line

It only matters when you copy it to pay it forward. A cd-r copy needs to be copied to a blank cd-r. A dvd needs to be copied to a dvd, etc. Either should install w/o issue if they were good copies in the first place...provided you're not trying to run dvd media on an older cd drive.

If you continue to have problems, shoot me a PM. Be more than happy to help you sort it out.

Some of us know what we're doing and offer competent advice on the matter...., and whatnot.
