Installing SessionTimer Pro

Macintosh

1. Unstuff the archive. A folder called 'SessionTimer Pro (version#)' is created on your hard disk. After you have expanded the file and verified operation, you can delete the compressed file to reclaim hard disk space.
2. Drag the folder to the preferred location on your hard disk. Important: Please make sure that all files remain inside the SessionTimer Pro folder. Do not move or remove them independently and do not change any file names, otherwise fatal errors will occur.
3. Open the folder and double click the SessionTimer Pro application icon (in the standalone application version) or SessionTimer Pro.fp5 (in the FM datafiles version). Your copy is verified and initialized. Installation is now complete. If any errors are returned during this procedure, your copy is probably damaged.
