lvb Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 A few updates from the NI support site caught my eye. Here is one: LabVIEW Development System 2011 SP1 - Platform Evaluation License Files It seems LabVIEW 2011 SP1 should be released soon... Quote
McKman Posted February 24, 2012 Report Posted February 24, 2012 You can also download the LabVIEW 2011SP1 downloader @ ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/softlib/labview/labview_development_system/2011%20SP1/ but the downloader cannot find anything to download yet... still waiting..... watching...... ready to pounce..... AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaagh the tension is killing me! Quote
Mads Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 It would be nice if they published platform DVDs instead of 20 individual installers. We get our developer suite DVDs after a while, but why have to wait. Quote
asbo Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Out of curiosity, is anyone using NI Update? Quote
lvb Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Posted March 6, 2012 Out of curiosity, is anyone using NI Update? Out of curiosity, I usually run it before manually downloading updates. My experience has been that the NI Update service has both a lag from the NI support site and also misses some updates completely... Quote
Aristos Queue Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 It would be nice if they published platform DVDs instead of 20 individual installers. We get our developer suite DVDs after a while, but why have to wait. It takes time to press physical DVDs. We can get the downloads up a lot sooner for those who need the fixes. Pressing the individual DVDs just doesn't make economic sense these days. Quote

My experience has been that the NI Update service has both a lag from the NI support site and also misses some updates completely... Except for when I install something and NI Update gets re-enabled, I forget it's even there. It seemed a little half-baked to me, and I haven't seen it get much attention or publicity from NI.

I think he rather meant post the images of the DVDs, so we could burn our own if we wanted. Are the packaged installers also a few steps behind individual releases? Quote
Mads Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 Correct asbo - I meant images of the Platform DVDs - or more to the point; the packaged installers. We use Volume License Manager so creating a single volume license installer instead of having to make one for each add-on etc. is a lot of work. Quote
