Hi Manfred,

Long time no hear?

Had a problem with installing the latest version 3.61 update?

It says it's for FS2k2 and I only use FS9.

An error appeared because of this. Is this right?

Best regards,

Hi Dave,

sorry for the delay of this but just learned that thsi forum software "queues" posts before they appear here... sorry for that.

Where exactly does it read that's for FS2K2 only and what error did you get?

HELP!!!
My first time on this forum, need an answer to a small problem.
My filght sim and FASOM are on a 200Gb disc, at present only showing 57Gb used, but the hanger says that the disc is full!!! trouble is I have at least 20 aircraft downloaded that I want to add to FS2004, how do I convince the disc that it is not full, or increase the size.
Sorry if I have put this in the wrong part of the forum, I have only just registerd and have still got to get used to it!

Hi Manfred

Thank you for promptly taking care of my order.

While I was installing AddOn manager I was flagged: (Twice, separately)

QUOTE:

C\WINDOWS\system32\MSINET.OCX and C\WINDOWS\system32\MSCOMCT2.OCX

An error occured while trying to replace the existing file:
I/O error 32.

Click Retry to try again, Ignore to skip this file (Not recommended) or Abort to cancel installation.

And, a third time, was flagged:

C\Program Files\FS Addon Manager\AddonMgr.exe

An error occured while trying to replace the existing file:
File access denied.

Click Retry to try again, Ignore to skip this file (Not recommended) or Abort to cancel installation.

After trying every other option I Clicked Ignore on all three flags and the installation proceeded.

But when I attempted to open AddOn Manager I was flagged:

Run-time error '372'

Failed to load control 'Inet' from MSINET.OCX. Your version of MSINET.OCX may be outdated. Make sure you are using the version of the control that was provided with your application.

END QUOTE.

What must I do to rectify my problem?

I thank you in anticipation.

Best regards.

Sincerely - Brian

Me, too. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and still get the results I posted a few posts ago.

And no response from anyone, including the owner of the copywrite/site, to my several requests -- soon to be complaints -- for help and advice.

All sorted now Manfred.

Problem I have now is after loding your program to my new computer and being told that registration has been accepted and to re-boot the program is still showing 'unregistered'?

I have left a message on the 'FSAOM website' as well as here and still no answers?

Why?

Hi Manfred,
Thank you for providingus with a great product.
Two questions.
How do I get the pics of a selected aircraft to show up in the right hand panel?

Thank you.

Dave - I sent a PM to Nels a while ago asking if he knew what was going on bearing in mind a lot of his downloads are advertising FSAOM but never got a reply.

I have given up on this now I think. May try additptro - I cannot get on with FSM.

Bill,

It beats me why Flightsim.com is continuing to back his download facility when the support is non-existant?

Come on 'Flightsim.com'................WAKE UP?

Manfred:

I bought this program at the beginning of 2006 (I think). I installed it and eventhough it had both the serial number and the registration number in the registering Box, when I click “register: I get a message thanking me for buying and registering the Addon.

To my surprise after I re-star again the program, I once again get a message saying that I have an unregister copy (eventhough I paid for it). This goes on and on eventhough I follow intallation advice. Finally I got tired of this and on the fact that I sent you several emails and I never got an answer. Hence I am at the moment considering this a sunk cost with the corresponding loss of my payment.

It just happens that I need urgently to remove a bunch of aircrafts, sceneries and panels from my FS 2004, and FS Addon is the right tool. With the new update 3.61, I assumed this sort of problem would had been eliminated but it is still there. I downloaded version 3.61 and I installed it on top of my originally bought version 3.50 (was I right or did I have to unistall 3.50 before installing 3.61 ?).
Could you please this time give me some advice/support so that this problem can be solved and I can use AOM, but without the limitations of an unregister copy?

By the way I have installed the competition program Flight Sim Manager (FSM) which I use to do somethings that AOM does not, like checking for duplicate afcads, landclasses etc. But FSM in my opinion is not in the same league as AOM . Is there any conflict amongst these programs (should I uninstalled FSM assuming my problem with AOM is solved!)?.

I would appreciate to hear from you soonest. Maybe you can give me some other register and serial Keys!

PS: I have sent an email to AOM support address, hoping I have better luck this time vis a vis rel support.

It has been several weeks since I posted this (see my original posting below under GRINGO), as well as emailing you on the subject with my proof of legally buying this addon.

Is this a support Forum?
Or has it ceased to exist.

I was at least expecting the courtesy of somebody answering my email.

The product you market is a payware one. As such we expect that when you go on vacations (if this is the excuse) somebody should be encharged of continuing tech support, either here or at your home.....

I see that you welcome everybody to this so-called support Forum, but nobody gets an answer to their problems.

To be honest with you I do not understand how flightsim continues to suppot this Forum if it does not provide any kind of suppot to the users.

I do hope you come back soonest from your vacations, and provide th needed support.

When I had problems he talked me through it to resolve the issue. He is also available on 'Skype'.

On 15th December last year I asked for help on a problem with AOFM (hanger shows full , when most aircraft have been removed from hanger) despite repeated request for help to FSAOM, with no response, and not one single reply on this forum I give up, in future I will stick to Airfix Dogfight. Thanks for nothing everyone!!!

This is not a FSAOM fault, it's your HDD that needs attention.

Windows is your operating system and says what you can or cant do.

Have you tried maintenance, defrag and disk clean up at all?

Hi everyone:

My first post hear, and first little problem in 3 years running AOM. I am a Registered user, with v. 3.61.0.959 running and work Ok. Today just got a message to Update my installed v.3.61.0.959 to v.3.65
I had no problems on the download, and install, but when AOM restarted, and after a reboot, the virison is still v.3.61.0.959.
I went to the AOM file tree to check the installed v. of the ext. file, it has not been updated, so i just reran the setup installer for the new virision , and bingo. no problem on package install, its just i still see the old virison in the file folder and whenit reopens its still the old virision.

Any advice out there,:D

Thanks

sorry on long reply and update,

No problem with the AOM It is running goon with the new update, It was me forgetting about AOM is Not set up to work in FSX :P, AND I had taken FS9 off the system when I installed FSX back in Nov. of 06,

I only reinstall fs9 last month so that I can fly online with one of the 3 VA's I fly for, ther Live flight map using Flight sim Flight Keeper app. still has not been upgraded to run on FSX yet. So after the reinstall of fs9 AOM poped up asking to Install the new virision, Great , works like a charm

Hi Manfred,

I hope this letter finds you and your family healthy and in good spirits. I have enjoyed your remarkable program since 2005 and have sent 40 people to your site. None have complained, however one unfortunately passed away. During a disaster i lost all of the information on my HDD. That will never happen again! I had a collection of downloads that was ireplacable except for your service and many hours of work. I now have the version that is limited to 5 & 10 ( ? ) downloads. I am wondering if it is not a very difficult or time consuming task to e-mail to me my original unlock key or for that matter a new key. This is truly my fault and I would be loathe to buy one from a bootlegger. If possible and it meets with your established policy please forward to me a copy as I am lost with out it.

sparkydick2@aol.com

Sparky,
God bless you and your family forever.

FsAOM user sence july 2005

SORRY for using this post space to get someone to take alook at a problem I have been haveing of a little over 4.5 months, and no replys, from the auther of the AOM, not a word from support team notheing, I have been reading everything hear in the forums. and I seem To be in Good hands, Cause the AOM Is still working whithout andy problems at all. So maybe I ought to just Keep the old virsion alone and stop trying to update the file. :)
I see that a lot of YOU out there are in Bad shape and can't run the program at all, Now that is ashame. It's a Great app to have When working.

Anyway Hear is the error I get: It seems that Window will not let me or the Installer deleat the file --- AddonMgr.exe, yet I have taken off the Read 0nly check went into the security section of windows, gave premission to Aom to make changes, set the Firewall to allow AOM accass and applied it ot the entire folder of AOM .
And back a month ago. I did a complet Clean Reinstall of AOM, and am back at the same little Bug, Windows or something Will not allow the Delestion of the AddonMgr.exe Ok I say again MY old copy of AOM is and Has been working whithout any problems, I just would like to know How to get the installer to deleate the Old copy of the... "AddonMgr.exe"

Thanks for the Eare full frim Me :) and Good flying...

Aaaahh I think I found the little misshap. in the File virsion, the origin source Revision number and Product version was not changed. I have checked the two fliles. All Three: ie: the origel V3.61.0959, and the UPdate v3.65.0961, and the Full install v3.65.0961 All carry the same file name and Version inside the Properties list. And the only names and flles numbers that are deferent are only shown on the Webb download page and installer sheld file info. I have checked this out by doing installs and rechecking the contents of each new folder, Yes the Updates do take NO Problems, only thing is We will still see the old Version number. but the contents was updated in the cfg. table :)

I also took care of the dumb locked .exe on fresh install I made shure to UN check read only right after the new installment.
Also just to make shure the NEW AddonMgr.exe was put in I unenstalled the old one first to a safe folder.

Guys, I know that no one can contact Manfred. Family problem or illness I think but one of you may have an answer to why I get a browser error screen when I try to use auto download of an AOM flagged file.

I had the problem long ago and Manfred told me how to correct it but the answer has long since been lost.

Can anyone help?

Secondly some have trouble with registration and updating the version number. If anyone does I still have his response on that problem.

Back on April 12, 2008, I purchased on-line FS-AOM. If you know the drill you pay up front with a credit card. I did that and waited for the download to begin. I got a message back about receiving further information regarding my registration number and product key number. A half-hour later, I received an email with directions on how to unlock my download. Right then and there, I knew I was in trouble...never got the download. Since that time I have repeatedly tried to contact Manfred and Plimus.com. I get lots of computer generated automatic replies from Plimus and I have kept bugging them asking them or Manfred to please help me get my download. I am certainly not going back and order again and end up paying double and taking the chance of not getting the program again without some help. It seems pretty easy to me that someone somewhere can guide me on how to get my download or email me the program so I can unlock the darn thing.

My last attempt was made through Plimus.com and this time, I was so fed up I just asked for a refund. I got a reply on June 9, 2008 that was a copy of an email to Manfred that said,

"We have received the following inquiry in regards to reference number xxxxxxxxx. Attempts to reach you regarding this issue have been unsuccessful and the customer has not received any response from you.

We request that you respond to this issue and CC us on your reply to the customer within 2 business days.

If we do not hear back from you, we will assist the customer directly by making the refund on your behalf."

Well, so far folks, not a peep out of Manfred, but I am still hoping Plimus will contact me before the week is out.

If anyone out there has some suggestions to either get my download or some inside phone numbers so I can talk to a person, I would appreciate it!
