All users

• Download and install Adobe Air. Update as necessary but avoid version 20.0.
• Unzip and place this folder, which includes WWSettings file, in Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support. You'll need to enter an administrator password during this process.
• Download and install Enterprise Agent. Do not update. (NOTE: Windows users will not need this with the version of Content Station linked below.)
• Download and install Content Station for Mac or Content Station for Windows. Do not update. Please note that this installer is for a newer build, which will look different from any existing software you may be used to.
• Download and install the Elvis desktop client (but not the InDesign plug-in) from our server. This link will always provide the same version of the software that our server is running. It is important that these versions match. The server URL is https://edit.chicago.mtgmediagroup.com:8090.

Restoring Air 19

Air 20.0 is incompatible with Content Station and Elvis clients. To restore version 19:

1. Double-click Applications/Utilities/Adobe Air Uninstaller.app
2. Delete Content Station.app from the Applications folder.
3. Download and install Adobe AIR 19.
4. Download and install Content Station build 300, which has some slight cosmetic changes but should otherwise function like the old version.
