EASTWEST SOFTWARE UPDATES

All users should update to the latest PLAY software. PLAY installers do not need a previous version of PLAY already installed.

EastWest urges users to consider the timing of updates. If you are in the middle of a project, it may be prudent to wait until the project is complete.

PLAY 5.0.0

PLAY 5 is for Mac users running OS X 10.7 or higher, and for Windows users running 7 and above.

PLEASE NOTE: PLAY 5 DOES NOT SUPPORT 32-BIT. IF YOU USE A 32-BIT HOST CONTINUE USING PLAY 4.3.5.

  • If you are using a Mac and get an “unidentified developer” message when clicking on the “PLAY_5.0.0.mpkg" icon, right-click or control-click on the icon instead and proceed.
