Installing/64bit Alpha

If you just download it from the web site, you first must unzip it.

Mac Instructions

1. double click the ".dmg" file to open it
2. If you are on Mojave (10.14) or earlier: Drag the app onto the "Desktop" (not the "Applications" folder, cuz you don't want to replace the 32bit version which lives there)
3. If you are on Catalina (10.15) or later: Drag the app icon into the provided "Applications" folder alias
4. If the Finder asks if you want to replace the one that is there, say yes. This is where you launch kJams 64bit from.

Windows Instructions

The Alpha version does not come with an installer, it's just a Zip file.

1. Unzip the file if that hasn't already been done
2. Drag the app into the "Program Files" folder
3. When Windows Explorer says there are files with the same name, click "Replace"
4. First time only:
   1. To create a "Shortcut File" follow these instructions, skip step 1.
   2. For h.264 playback, you must install the K-Lite Codec pack
5. When you run, kJams will ask you to install "Bonjour Printer Service". After you install that, you must enable the service manually:
   1. In the OS search bar, type "services", and you'll see an app called "Services", click it.
   2. in the list that shows, type "bonj" and it will scroll down to reveal "Bonjour Service"
   3. right-click it and pick "Properties"
   4. in the "Startup Type" menu pick "Automatic"
   5. if the "Service Status" is not "Running", click the "Start" button
