So I thought that I would post this just incase it might effect anyone else. I am usually running a keyserver version of Max, and after I downloaded m4l it seems that my original verson of max was completely replaced. It seems that I cannot load both versions of max onto my mac at the same time? I would prefer it if I could have my keyserver version as well so I don't have to run in demo mode all the time.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?

You can have both versions installed at the same time, but you will have to manually rename the Max5 folder. Eventually there's going to be only one version, so the problem will go away.

This happened to me with the most recent download.
Is there any way to work around this at all? My beta version of max is going to expire soon and I need to be able to work on a keyservered version.

Also,
this is what my patches look like now...

Like I said 5.0.8 and 5.1b* works fine together. I didn't try with 5.0.4 which is one year old or something like that.

Same problem. Any ideas?

delete the installer receipt in

/Library/Receipts/Max5.pkg

And try again
