Open the DMG file as usual and drag the app onto the Desktop or into your Applications folder before executing it (super important to run it outside of the DMG, it downloads a temporary file).

Try it out and report any successes or issues to this thread.

You're welcome.

FOR WINDOWS
We have a new version of the Midifighter Update 1.0 for Windows that we believe will fix the problems. You can download it from here:

Remember to uninstall the previous "Midifighter Update 1.0" app before installing this new one.

Assuming you have never previously installed software to update your Midifighter [1], when you put your Midifighter into Bootloader Mode by holding down the four corner buttons and plugging in the USB cable, Windows should respond with a "Welcome to the Found New Hardware Wizard". We now have a set of drivers you can direct Windows to use, located in the directory:


This directory includes drivers for the X86, AMD64 and IA64 platforms.

1. Select "Install from a List or a Specific Location (Advanced)", click "Next"
2. Tick the box "Include this location in the search" and click "Browse".
3. Direct the dialog the "Program Files/DJTechTools/MidifighterUpdate/BootloaderDrivers" directory, then click "OK".
4. The drivers should then install.

After installation you will find that a Midifighter in bootloader mode appears in the "Device Manager" list as a new USB device called "Midifighter DFU Bootloader" under the section "LibUSB-Win32 Devices".



Running Midifighter Update should now go smoothly and your Midifighter will be found, updated and restarted.

Report back if this new fixes the problems for you!
