Object Dock Plus

Wednesday, March 25, 2009 by kornster83 | Discussion: Windows Vista

Hi all, Ive recently started using object dock plus @ home and am having a funny issue which i dont understand

 

When Object Dock plus is running i cannot navigate through my firefox tabs, they are just unclickable. If i close OD+ it works fine

I also noticed that i cannot click the left hand top side of my screen when the application is running, and once again if i close the App it works fine

 

I thought maybe it was my desktop rig so i unistalled it and tried to use it on my laptop and i had the same issue

 

Can Someone help?? im really excited to use this program and hope that this is a simple issue that can be resolved

Do you have WindowBlinds...can you post your system info? Did you install through Impulse? Did you use the free OD program?

No i dont use Windowsblinds

I didnt use impulse to download it

 

Ive tried to free OD program and it runs fine but i would prefer to user OD+ as ive purchased it and it would be a waste of money using a free version.

 

Im using windows vista ultimate + sp1 system specs below. Nevermind the unrelated stuff i use this as a sig somewhere else

Uninstall OD and OD+ with Revo Uninstaller link

Reboot. Download Impulse and then, with the blue question mark on the upper right corner put in the email you used to order OD+.

Close Impule and reopen it. You should then be able to download and install OD+.

Use Impulse as you will be able to update through it. It is Stardock's Download and update platform.

Download it here: link. From the WinCustomize homepage left hand side. 

Is your system 32 or 64 Bit?

Whew! It doesn't work right with 64. OK...please try what I suggested in #3. I think your problem came from not eradicating the free OD and not doing it thru Impulse. The Revo uninstaller is free and fantastic. Do the thoroughest uninstall.

Let me know if it helped, ok? And welcome to the Community (mate). We have lots of great folks from Oz here!

Mine sort of works on my 64-bit Vista. I can't load new backgrounds or switch backgrounds. Just curious.. most new computers are 64-bit Vista and Windows 7 will be both 32 & 64-bit. Will Right-Click and Object Dock Plus have 64-bit Vista versions or will they be available in Windows 7?

I'm betting that OD2.0 will have the Vista 64 biy fix. As for 7, when it finalizes (out of Beta), SD will make the necessary changes.
