Introducing Hive, a beautiful new wallet for Mac OS X

[tgerring]

Global moderators should be able to aswell, I think. Unfortunately I dont think that he is going to create a sub-forum for a piece of software. Maybe for an altcoin or country, but not for a software. :/

There are already subforums for most major wallets.

Really? I have never seen it. Where are they located?

I suggest http://openshift.com because they provide a free vps (3 to be exact) and are somewhat easy to setup. If you want, I could set it up for you! Just send me a pm!

We switched servers and haven't yet been able to point the old one again. It will eventually fix itself, but if you want to upgrade in the meantime, just re-download it from the website and you will be on the new update channel.

[KSV]

already did it

just wanted to inform you, in the event u missed it.

[TonyZX]

Oh well! That's so cool! That's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks !!!

What do you mean by this exactly? DNS repropagation delays should not last several days unless you were using a huge TTL.

another question - been playing around with the wallet and was wondering how i would do a restore from time machine. I can't find a restore option. If its manually done, how do i do it?

It's not a technical issue, it's a human issue

There's no restore option at the moment. If you needed to restore from a backup, you'd have to manually copy the two files from the backup to the right folder. The point wasn't to make it easy to do that automatically, the point was to make it possible to get back your coins in case something horrible happens. The bitcoinkit.wallet file (+ the password, obviously) is the only thing you absolutely need in order to do that, most of the other data can be restored somehow.

Hive 1.1.2 is out - two biggest changes:

1) lock screen on startup that asks you for the password before it lets you in:



2) context menu on the apps page - you can now uninstall apps:
