All FileMaker 9 products are now compatible with Leopard

FileMaker has released downloadable updates to make FileMaker Pro 9, FileMaker Pro 9 Advanced, FileMaker Server 9 and FileMaker Server 9 Advanced compatible with Mac OS X Leopard. Leopard is the stunning new version of Apple's Mac OS X which is transforming the Mac experience.

In addition to Leopard compatibility, the updates for all four products (FileMaker Pro 9, FileMaker Pro 9 Advanced, FileMaker Server 9 and FileMaker Server 9 Advanced) address other issues. We recommend all users of FileMaker 9 products, on Mac and Windows, download them.

FileMaker Pro 8.5v2 update fixes major Leopard compatibility issues

FileMaker has released a downloadable update to fix important compatibility issues in FileMaker Pro 8.5 and FileMaker Pro 8.5 Advanced running on Mac OS X Leopard.

The v2 update fixes issues that caused FileMaker Pro 8.5 to hang when the system language and region did not match, and when saving to or exporting to Microsoft Excel format.

Note that the Instant Web Publishing (IWP) feature does not work in FileMaker Pro 8.5v2 or FileMaker Pro 8.5v2 Advanced running on Mac OS X Leopard. The IWP feature in FileMaker Pro 8.5 was designed and implemented long before Leopard, and it is not feasible to update it for Leopard.

We hope the v2 update helps customers make a smoother transition to FileMaker Pro 9. Please note there may be other issues with FileMaker Pro 8.5 and FileMaker Pro 8.5 Advanced running on Leopard. We urge our customers to use the current versions of all FileMaker software.
