This brief installation instructions apply for all distribution forms of Calamus 2015 that you will find on your Calamus 2015 CD.
Place your CD into your CD drive. In case the installer doesn't
start up automatically (which opens an MS Internet Explorer window),
open the drive window of this CD in your Windows work space (normally
by clicking Start
then My computer
). You will find on
your CD various folders and some EXE files. Start the program named
Calamus_SL2015_en_0200.exe
with a double-click and follow the
instructions of the installation program, which will execute the
installation of your Calamus automatically (0200
represents the
release number of the program).
To use Calamus 2015 on a TOS operating system (Atari TT,
Falcon, Hades, Milan) or in some other TOS environment (STEmulator,
MagicPC, MagicMac, etc.) you only need to copy data. On your CD you
will find, amongst others, a folder SL2015en
which contains the
complete standard distribution of your Calamus 2015 in an unpacked
format. Simply copy the whole folder to your hard drive. Follwing this
you should check whether the folder and its contents are possibly
write-protected due to copying from a CD to your hard drive. Remove
this write protection from all folders and files. Now you can launch
CALAMUS.PRG in the usual manner.
In order to be able and use Calamus 2015 under Mac OS X, at least Mac OS X version 10.2 and the system enhancement MagicMacX are required. MagicMacX is not part of the Calamus 2015 package but can be purchased from us, too. If you have not installed MagicMacX already, you should do this first under Mac OS X.
Then copy the folder SL2015en
from your Calamus CD to your
hard drive, as described in TOSPack.
Important: You will have to copy the files from the folder
MMX
to your MagicMacX folder or Calamus cannot use the native
Mac OS X functions.
On your white CD envelope your will find a matchcode
sticker for your indivually serial-numbered CALAMUS.PRG. This
matchcode forms your key to the program, and may not be passed to
third parties (that amounts to piracy). When you launch Calamus for
the first time, a registration dialog appears in which you have to key
your personal details and the matchcode. Please fill out ALL fields of
this dialog and in the fields Name
, Serial number
and
Matchcode
enter exactly the data that is contained on the
sticker. Incidentally the letter o
will be shown on the sticker
in lower case, to differentiate it from a zero (0). However you can
only enter capital letters and numerals into the matchcode fields.
We wish you success with Calamus 2015!
