hello
I've upgraded to a new machine (27 inch iMac running BootCamp) and Windows 7 and reloaded the Piper Cub into FS X.
But the Shift3/4 etc no longer work. I see a brief flash when I press the keys but then nothing.
I can't see any similar questions on the Forum so anyone any idea what I'm doing wrong please?

Re: Shift 3 etc doesn't work
Hello,
Assuming your FSX is all updated to Service Pack 2 requirements, it sounds like your FSX has an issue. You can fix the flashing panels via an FSX reinstall, FSX Repair or a simconnect reinstall. I'd reconnect a simconnect reinstall first;

And it wont hurt to make sure our Direct X9 libraries are all up to date;

Most grateful for your rapid response. SP2 is indeed installed so I'll give your suggestions a go to see if they solve the issue.Lewis - A2A wrote:Hello,

No problem. Remember to restart your system after installations and also to update your cub to the latest version. the cub update included lots of all new features so is worth getting;

Re: Shift 3 etc doesn't work
As an Apple user I confess that I didn't understand what the file:
http://a2asimulations.com/public/downlo ... onnect.msi
would do but I ran it and it didn't seem to do anything. What is it supposed to do please?
Anyway, I dug out the disks and did a complete reinstall - and seemed to mean I had to reinstall all the custom airfields and scenery too - a tedious job bout all working again now, thank you. I like Sarah's new hair!
