I understand.... Definitely a bad situation for everyone... Sadly I did not backup the last version (which was working)

Apple's ongoing policies are continuing to chase me further from their products...

Their' apostles continue to demand compliance with all those who chose to use the Apple products... Forcing business is a bad business model and it seems to me this is what they continue to do. but I digress...

I will now (sadly) need to avoid all of these products and replace what I have with other things. I caot seem to comply as updating UC will require updating firmware which will lose my (windows 8.1) VSL access so that's a given negative. Now I have lost the remote control abilities which will force me to procure other gear asap... Not something I am thrilled about as all was well until now...

I do appreciate the response and the well explained info... Thanks!

I hope Presonus takes some of these issues into their' operations consideration and prevent such situations in the future. I caot even get a copy of the older app from another user as high-and-mighty aPPle does not allow such...
