AC9 not finding WIBU on Mac

Anonymous — Thu, 28 Mar 2024 10:18:19 GMT

I went to open an old file (AC 7) in AC9, and got the error message "No WIBU-KEY driver found. (501)" Prior to installation of 16, 9 worked fine.

Files prior to AC 8 only open in 9, not in subsequent versions. If they are saved in 9, then they can be opened in later versions. Do I have to resuscitate the old G-5 to perform the needed transferal? Or even the G-4 laptop?

See the Wibu driver download page here:

At the bottom of the download table, you'll see this additional download and note:

WkMAC.LIB for ArchiCAD 9 on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
Unarchive this file and put into the Library:CFMSupport folder on your HD. This component is necessary for those using ArchiCAD 9 on Snow Leopard.

Should do the trick... worked for me a couple of years ago when I was running Snow Leopard.
