Hi there
I'm using VDJ 7.04 on a Mac and when I boot up the programme it frequently keeps asking for my serial number. This wasn't the case with 7.0.
Is there any way I can stop this happening. It's becoming a pain in the bottom!!!
Cheers

Typically this is a permissions issue. You can attempt to resolve this through the following steps ---
Use this utility to remove all instances of VirtualDJ -
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/appdelete.html
Then make sure you do the following - REPAIR your disk permissions (this may or may not be needed, but it doesn't hurt either way so just do it anyway) ::-> Go to: (HD)/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
Launch Disk Utility, select your primary hard drive with Mac OS on it (start up disk) and click on the "Repair Disk Permissions" button. There's no need to click on the "Verify Disk Permissions" button right above it, just repair them.
Then reboot and install VirtualDJ again. After install,
Go to the /Documents/ folder and Control+Click (right click) on the VirtualDJ folder
Choose the Get Info menu choice
Then in the bottom right corner of the Get Info dialog you need to click on the pad-lock and unlock it (will prompt you for you user password)
Then just above that to the left is the Permissions list. Make sure your user account has Read/Write permissions set.
Just below the Permissions box there is a button with a gear graphic on it - click that and choose the 'apply to all included' items
Once changed, close the box to Apply the changes.
Open VirtualDJ
