It sends the authorization code to the email you entered when you bought your subscription. If you can’t find it, e-mail their support.

I sent an email to their tech support. The requested them to send me a link for the previous versioin (which worked), and this is their response:

The previous version does not exist.
We cannot support compatibility with all programs from the Installer.app. You can install other programs, but it can affect Kate’s work.

But we shall study a problem of compatibility.

Oh good.. wasn’t only me either. I’ve reinstalled new system like 3 times and Kate will show up when it is the first app, but once I install ANYTHING else, Kate will disappear from settings and stop working. Bring back the old version — it worked!

After i installed Kate 1.3.1v2 i have also the problem that my iPhone make no Sounds anymore, ear and speaker too.

i found a solution for this,
Settings > General > Reset
There you select “ALL Settings” then it will be reseted to the defaults.

After this my sound is working again.

I think Kate or Kate (with another installed app) create a conflict inside the settings.

I will never use such programms like IntelliScreen or Kate, i try it 5 times, sometimes it works some days. but then hanging on bootscreen.

there are always problems with the launchdaemons, the startup apps conflict themeselves

Cheers SG for the heads up…

Personally I never had any issues with BossTools and any of the previous versions of Caterpillar\Kate while using Fonts (except where some of them just did not format correctly on the icon labels).

Just to add another lil bit of info on my earphone dilemma… All the restores were done using iTunes 7.6.

Once again, many thanks in advance for any hints.. tips, etc… you guys can give.

Don’t know what to tell ya about the headphone jack issue. However be carefull with Kate’s Font option. Unless it was corrected with the latest release, installing the Font option creates a symbolic link where the fonts are factory stored and moves them to the larger space. Moving said fonts folder with BossTool will cause your phone not to boot and be stuck at the Spinning Wheel of Death! (SWOD is my coinage for it). It appears that neither app (Kate and BossTool) checks to see if the fonts have already been moved to the larger space. This happened to me after Kate’s Font option had been applied and I discovered BossTool and it’s Free Space utility and moved the fonts. BossTool creates what it thinks is only one font folder when in fact there are two after doing so, e.g. Fonts/Fonts folder structure. The symbolic link is only look at the first font folder. Because of this no boot because no fonts can be loaded. Good luck with the headset port.

Hi Guys,

Major disappointment over this side of the big pond.
Heres a quick sum up.

Original Issue:
– iPhone upgraded to 1.1.4, unlock/jailbroken with Ziphone 3.0
– After Updating Kate 1.3 to 1.3.1v2 iPhone did not reboot
– “Corrective Action” Restored fwr 1.1.3 used iBrick 0.91 + again Ziphone 3.0

Current Issue:
– iPhone restored to 1.1.3, used iBrick 0.91 + unlock/jailbroken with Ziphone 3.0
– Installed TimeCapsule 0.41b1 (restored- addressbook, stocks, notes, weather, bookmarks)
– Installed BossTool and moved Fonts,Ringtones and Apps
– Installed Kate 1.3.1v2, rebooted iPhone and only after* I changed Facelift in settings on re-spring EARPHONE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK

* I know issue only happened after Kate setting change as previouslly I was Testing Earphone Control before\after any change.

– Since then, tried many fwr restores between 1.1.3 and 1.1.4, I believe at least one of the attempts I DFU’d (still not a master of buttons release) to no avail…. :/

I am lost for options, If any of you would have any hints on what i could try that would be great… Many thanks in advance for help.

PS- last night did also try to clean the earphone jack, but still no joy.

ATB,
Jorge

I hear ya! Glad I only paid for 6 months. I would pissed like you because of the unlimited license. The only other app I have installed is iLog. This app in my opinion is more valuable than Kate. I’m switching to Customize. 5 icon dock, themes, lock screen and Springboard seoerate wallpaper, dock reflection coming etc. Above all, community support and contributions. It was nice to have known ya Kate.
