Support for Safari 32-bit on Snow Leopard released
Thanks again for your patience and understanding! We know many of you are eager for Cooliris support for Safari on Snow Leopard. We’re happy to let you know that we just released a fully compatible 32-bit version.
During the install, you will be prompted to change your Safari settings from 64-bit to 32-bit in order to properly complete the installation and run Cooliris. If you choose “Cancel”, Cooliris will still install but not run until you switch your browser to 32-bit mode.
In Snow Leopard, 64-bit processes are not allowed to load input manager bundles. Since Cooliris installs as an input manager, this renders us incompatible in 64-bit mode. We are working on a 64-bit version of Cooliris, however this requires a significant new release and we do not have a date for that version at this time.”
We encourage you to use Cooliris on 32-bit Safari, but if you’d like to be updated when the 64-bit compatible version is released, you can subscribe to our blog or follow us on Twitter. We will update these communication channels as soon the version goes live, though this may be a while. Alternatively, you can leave your email with us by emailing snowleopard@cooliris.com with “64-bit” in the subject line.
As always, feel free to shoot us an email at feedback@cooliris.com with any feedback!
Thanks again and enjoy!

I’ve been using safari since it came out a few years ago and it always seem to be the fastest browser for me. How will 64 bit help with your application? Will we see a speed bump or won’t it be noticeable? I love the way it generates the thumbnail photos so quickly.

that word “right” is a mystery to me. it’s just “i have os 10.5.8″

Hi iquanyin,
We do recommend all Mac users to upgrade to 1.11.3 even if you do not have Snow Leopard. The reason for this is that if you upgrade to Snow Leopard without the update, you will lose Cooliris completely. Downloading 1.11.3 now will ensure that Cooliris will still be functional if you choose to upgrade your OS to Snow Leopard.
Hope that helps!

Any idea which month or at least which quarter we will see the 64-bit release?
I have just discovered Cooliris and am amazed by it.

When I use Safari in 32 bit mode Top Sites isn’t shown properly when resizing the window and cooliris shows strange vertical bars over unloaded images (gray boxes) in the 3D wall. So maybe to develop a 64 bit release of cooliris wouldn’t be a waste of time… many apps are known to fail in 32 bit mode (individual applications in 32 bit mode with kernel an kexts in 64 bit mode).
