Whether you are a professional DJ or an amateur, Djay for Mac is the right tool for you. Djay for Mac transforms your device into a full based DJ platform that allows you to enjoy your music.
Djay has full integration with the music apps on Mac which includes iTunes and Spotify. This makes it very easy and fun to use.
You can explore the world of music with this great app. The developers of the app made sure the app is attractive to expert users with its advanced features while it still looks appealing to beginners with a very clear and intuitive user and graphical interface. The app comes with some professional grade features that an experienced DJ will be able to optimize fully. There is the BMP Sync feature that will help beginners to effortlessly match and mix two tracks together to produce an amazing sound. Djay for Mac is a great tool to use. Software Review. Djay for Mac is an excellent app for all your music mixing activities.
It has a professional but still very clear interface that makes it usable for all Mac users. With standard grade tools that give professionals a platform to mix their songs. DJay for Mac works perfectly with your iTunes library and converts your Mac into an essential DJ system. Installation is very straightforward. Simply download, mount and double click the installer. You will see the same old interface you are used to with just about every software installation on OS X.
The app itself, although houses some very powerful and advanced mixing tools, is very lightweight and does not hog system performance. All you need to do is drag a song from your music library onto one of the two turntables on the interface. The app then converts them to virtual records with full album art. You can now start dragging the song like you are actually on a real turntable, or you can drag the vinyl to easily find the right beat that will go away with the song.
With the Automix Queue, you can step in any time and list up songs on the go. There are a lot of exciting features on Djay for Mac that makes the app so appealing. Despite all these, the program can be overwhelming sometimes, and the numerous tools can clutter the screen and confuse the user. But this does not take anything away from the great features Djay for Mac has in its kit. I will recommend Djay for any professional DJ or any Mac user that has an interest in being a professional DJ.

This part of the message is directed at the folks who work at Spotify - Please turn off the auto-update madness for customers using Mac OS X 10.5. All you are doing is breaking their already running Spotify installations. Frankly, it's just gratuitous cruelty to force a version of the Spotify client on their computers when you know it won't run.
You should make a version of Mac Spotify that runs on Mac OS X 10.5 and has auto-update disabled. It is a hassle for customers to download the old Mac client and manually disable the update. Let the Mac OS X 10.5 users download this special no-update Spotify for OS X 10.5 and enjoy your music service. If you are Mac OS X 10.5 user and neet to get Spotify working again - As of the v0.8.8 client, Spotify no longer supports Mac OS X 10.5. So you will have to go back to an older version of the client and disable Spotify's auto-update mechanism.
This process is tricky. Evelinder and fgmart and Peter all have contributed to getting Mac OS X users running on an older client version. Kudos to them.
As some of the links to the Mac instructions no longer work, try these (I've copied them below in case the link gets deleted like some previous ones I posted). Re: Spotify crashes as soon as it opens OK everyone, here's the deal. You have to prevent Spotify from auto-updating. The way you're going to do this is by sticking two files in the place where it will try to download its auto-update. You're going to configure these files as read-only and locked, so that when Spotify tries to auto-update it will fail. Then you will download and install an old version of Spotify that works. Because you've previously put these two blocking files in the right place, the newly-installed, old-working version of Spotify will silently try and fail its auto-update, and you'll be happy.
Create the two special files. Using TextEdit, create a blank file. Then, go into the Format menu, and choose 'Make Plain Text'. Choose File:Save, and uncheck the box that says 'If no extension is provided, use '.txt'.
Enter filename as 'Spotifynew.archive', and save it in:Library:Application Support:Spotify. Make sure to uncheck the box that adds an extension.
The file cannot have a.txt or.rtf extension! Now, choose File:Save As, and save it again, in the same folder, but with filename 'Spotifynew.archive.sig'. Yes, you are indeed saving blank files - that is correct! Make the files read-only and locked. Remember, the point of this is to prevent Spotify from replacing them with an actual update. Using the Finder, locate the Spotifynew.archive and Spotifynew.archive.sig files. They should be in:Library:Application Support:Spotify.
One at a time, do a Get Info on them (Command-I), and then: 2a. In the Sharing & Permissions tab, change access privileges to Read only.
This is at the bottom of the get-info dialog. You will have to click on the little lock icon at the very bottom-right of the dialog and authenticate before you can do this. Check the box saying 'Locked' under the General tab.
When you're done, the dialog should look like this: Do this for both the Spotifynew.archive and Spotifynew.archive.sig files. After you've done this, the files should look like this in your Application Support:Spotify folder:.
Notice the little lock icon by the two files. Re-install an old/working version of Spotify. I have the version 0.8.3.222.g317ab79d from CNET, which works fine: ANFB: You can also download version 0.8.5.133 from here: 4.
Boot up Spotify and you should be all set. I hope this works for you. Hi everyone, Many of you have had problems with Spotify for Mac OS X 10.5. We no longer support Spotify on this operating system which as a 'heads up'. However, we've noticed that many folks have been updating regardless which should not be the case. Our intention was to let anyone using Mac OS X10.5 continue using a 'legacy' version of Spotify. In any case, the folks who were using 10.5 were updated, and in many cases these customers have experienced crashes with the newest version of the application (Spotify version 0.8.8.
At the time of writing). To make a long story short, we messed up in updating folks who should not have been updated and we're sorry. We plan on fixing the problem of Spotify updating to the latest version for Mac OSX 10.5 users and we're working on it as I write this. If you're a person who has already upgraded and the application is crashing, we're looking into a solution and we hope to have an update shortly. Warm regards from your humble community manager, Rorey. Wrote: Thank you so much for posting this.
It's worked for me. I've been furious trying to figure out how to use a program I'm paying for.
I feel like you are entitled to a settlement from Spotify for fixing a problem they are profiting from. Peace and Blessings to you You are welcome. It is really mvelinder, fgmart, and peter that figured out the answers. I'm just trying to make sure people know there is a solution available and, hopefully, get Spotify to be better about these sorts of things in the future. @ConstanzeSche Spotify should give you a month's credit. They knew for 6-7 months that they were going to break Mac OS X 10.5 compatibility but didn't communicate with their customers and didn't do anything about not breaking existing customer installs of Spotify. You should email Spotify support at '[email protected]' and ask them for a one month credit.
I think the only way to keep track of what's going in the Spotify world is to visit these forums occasionally. There is no other place where you can find honest communication about what's really happening and what really works or doesn't work. Thank you so much for the advice. I emailed them right away and - instead of money - i receivend a code for the next subscription.
One month for free. But the support team also said, that the problem might not be fixed before may.

I will look into this every once in a while. But it's a) annoying and b) not easy for a non-native speaker to follow all the updates, especially when technical terms are used. There is no Community Help in my language. That is something Spotify should start working on, too. But again, thanks for the help. I will spread the word among my friends. Greetings from Germany.
