Paddle is the new eCommerce "Shopping Cart" that kJams uses to enable users to make purchases, create and manage subscriptions, and handle licensing and serial numbers.

On Mac, Paddle requires macOS 10.10 or better to function.
On Windows: it currently requires .Net3.5, but will soon require .Net4.0

Helpful Hints on this new update

  1. it probably goes without saying but: DO NOT DO THIS before a show
  2. ensure your existing kJams runs in Licensed mode (ie: NOT in Tryout mode), including plugins (Producer and/or Burner)
  3. download kJams as normal
  4. Windows: SAVE the installer, rather than run it, you'll need to run it twice if you don't have .NET installed
  5. Install kJams
  6. Windows users only:
    1. do all software updates, this may take several restarts and several "check for update" clicks, keep going till it says there are no more updates
    2. If you were not auto prompted to install .NET 3.5, please manually install .NET 3.5, for instructions, see the video tutorial for Windows 10, or for previous versions of Windows (7, 8).
  7. launch kJams

everything should be all automatic: what should happen is kJams will walk you through the automatic and free conversion to the new licensing system.

let me know if you have questions

if it FAILS to work for you for some reason, just uninstall it, then reinstall from here, this version has the old eCommerce system (eSellerate).
