make sure you have a solid connection to the internet. If you have protection software like Norton, double-check ComicBase is allowed internet access. a simple exit and restart of Sidekick can help ...OR even a computer restart can help. If you continue to have trouble, please email our support team at support@comicbase.com

This sounds like a computer performance problem. You're running at 1.60 GHz which is under our recommended 2.0Ghz. Not to mention, if you have other programs running (even background programs which most computers do) that can also slow overall computer performance. As a result, CB is having trouble fully completing an action you try to initiate like optimizing, updating, exiting, etc. - you will likely hit 'not responding' states that could take longer than normal to finish through (or not finish). Did you access to a computer with better specs?
-
do you get the 'Not Responding' state when you try to exit OR something different?

Not having any trouble similar to what you're reporting from other users. This may be unique to you or possibly non-USA users. *Any Users outside the USA have the same trouble? ALSO, If you have any kind of Software protection (Ex: Norton, MacAfee, Avast, etc.), make sure ComicBase is allowed internet access (you may need to setup a program exclusion). Do the same for Firewall settings.

How do you exit out of the software? File Menu>Exit OR just hit the 'X' at the top/right header of the main software window? Does the problem happen every time for you. *Try Optimizing your Database (File Menu>File Tools>Optimize). This will help 'smooth up' your database

Blank picture files,but the pictures appear in the program
Mark J. Castaneda replied to mark d. smith's topic in Tech Support
Do these files actually have file sizes in that file folder? Do the covers actually display in ComicBase OR are they broken? You may need to redownload them. -

Mark J. Castaneda replied to Gregory Hecht's topic in News & General Discussion
No livestream this week (6/22/2022). Pete expects next week to have one. -
good idea...will share with the programming team for consideration
-
This is a result of our programming team doing multiple updates this week as we’re making improvements/modifications to our content update processor. You should see your TG report look more normal with next week’s content update.
-
we're making modifications to our content update processor with the last few updates; programming team has bit more to work to do for things go back to normal. The next 2 update reports may look similar.

Any clues what series this comes from
Mark J. Castaneda replied to mark d. smith's topic in News & General Discussion
G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero *if a comic has a barcode, use that to search. With this comic, I'd suggest use the full barcode number on the front cover to get to the title and issue more efficiently; just type it into the main find box at the top of the CB software interface. -
Clean up for 06/01/2022 update
Mark J. Castaneda replied to Gregory Hecht's topic in Content and Corrections
Another user contacted us about this one, Red Calloway is not an actual creator/studio, thus the reason for the title name adjustment. -
we'll look into it. *If you have other pricing sources you can provide, please leave a comment with a link to them.

Received an UNIQUE Constraint Failed Error Message
Mark J. Castaneda replied to Samuel Jackson's topic in Tech Support
curious what your txt file looks like (format and elements). Can you upload it for review OR email it to support@comicbase.com? -
Which ASM series are you talking about? To make it easier for us, please use the 'Request Price Check' option under the software's internet menu for stuff like this. We'll have our editorial team look further into it.

No luck with your fix for Crystal Reports
Mark J. Castaneda replied to Todd Haney's topic in Tech Support
just would like to confirm the steps you did... -uninstall your CB2022 edition -uninstall your CB2022 resource listing -uninstall your SAP Crystal Report listing (you noted you 'installed' it in your initial post) -lastly, download/install the revised CB2022 program installer from your online account here: https://www.comicbase.com/mycb/Registrations.aspx If those steps don't work, contact our team directly at support@comicbase.com -
I was curious and ran you're update settings back-to-back thinking maybe the 2nd update would case the problem but wasn't the case. Update didn't plug magazines back in. I'll let Pete know and see if he can think of anything that might be going on. BTW... Anyone else, have this problem?

there's no way to cancel a search once you kick it off

build 1702 is available, see if you get the problem with it
