DESKTOP CURTAIN LICENSE
You should now see the license in your name if so, you’re done! If not, well … if you have any difficulties with the crossgrade, please use any of the methods (support ticket, Twitter, email) on the Desktop Curtain support page to get in touch with us, and we’ll help you complete the crossgrade. When the license email arrives, follow its instructions to license Desktop Curtain in your name-all you need to do is click the link in the email, double-click the resulting downloaded file (if your browser doesn’t unzip it automatically), and then drag the now-unzipped license file to the “Anon McAppStore” license window in Desktop Curtain, which should still be open. Select “Request permanent crossgrade…” and a new dialog will appear:Įnter your name and email address, then click Submit.Īfter a bit of processing time (Desktop Curtain is talking to our server to verify your App Store license and generate your direct license), you’ll get a confirmation dialog, telling you that your license is enroute. Right-click (or Control-click if you’re old school) on the license file image, and you’ll see a single contextual menu item: This is our normal “temporary” license for App Store users, as explained in this blog post. When the license window appears, it should state that the app is licensed to Anon McAppStore. If you happen to use Faceless mode, you’ll need to temporarily switch to one of the other modes first. If you run in menu bar mode, as most do, click the menu bar icon then select License.

If you run Desktop Curtain as a normal app, go to Desktop Curtain > License in the menus. Launch the direct version of Desktop Curtain, and display its license window.
DESKTOP CURTAIN INSTALL
As long as you’ve run the App Store version once, you can replace the App Store version with the direct version, or you can install the direct version in another location if you’d prefer to keep both around. Quit the App Store version, and install the version from our site.

(You’ve hopefully done this many times, given you bought the app at some point.) Install and run the App Store version of Desktop Curtain at least once. If you’d like to freely crossgrade to the direct version, here’s what you need to do: To help those who use the App Store version of Desktop Curtain and rely on Spaces, Desktop Curtain has gained a new skill, just like Witch did: The ability for App Store users to freely and permanently crossgrade to the direct version of Desktop Curtain, which continues to support Spaces.
DESKTOP CURTAIN UPDATE
App Store users should see the update in the App Store app shortly, if not now. Direct users can update via the in-app updater, or by downloading a new copy from our web site. Other changes in this update are mainly behind-the-scenes, but there is a nice new retina menu bar icon and Desktop Curtain now uses our new in-app help system. (See the linked Witch 3.9.8 post for the nitty-gritty on why we had to do this … and keep reading this post to see how you can regain Spaces support.)

And just like the Witch 3.9.8 update, the App Store version of Desktop Curtain has lost Spaces support. Today’s release of Desktop Curtain 3.0.6 marks our second straight update that removes a feature for App Store users.
