Update

CDM+ includes a robust web update utility. We recommend that you check for program updates frequently and install any that are available. To check for an update, go to FileUpdate or click on the update icon in the toolbar. See the section Automatically Checking for Updates below for instructions on setting up CDM+ to check for updates from the web at log in.

When updating from the web, no personal information is transferred, only your current version number that is used to determine which, if any, updates are available.

Updating

Choose FileUpdate from the File Menu or click the Update icon.

If other users are accessing CDM+, you will see a list of users currently logged into the program appear. Each user must quit CDM+ before the updates can be installed. Once the update is complete, the program will restart, and all users may log back into CDM+.

Once the update is complete, the program will restart, and all users may log back into CDM+.

Automatically Checking for Updates

You can set CDM+ to automatically check the Web for updates when you log into the program. To enable this option, go to CDM+ (on Mac)/File (on Windows) → PreferencesCDM+ User. Then, select the General tab, click the Web Update icon, and check the option to Check for program updates at startup. Save your changes in the bottom right corner.
