Compatibility nightmare.

piddlyb

I have an Mk1 Traktor S4. Is there any way I can get it working on a fully activated version of Traktor 2 Pro?

I have a traktor S4 mk1. I've tried everything to get it connected to Traktor Pro 2. I've tried downgrading my MacBook, but it is no longer possible to downgrade as far as is needed to have a compatible OS. I've tried demoing Traktor Pro 3, but that's not compatible. I've converted an old Mac to a Windows OS and whilst Pro 2 works in Demo mode, I am unable to activate my Pro 2 software because the service centre does not connect to the internet (even though all other web pages open fine). Also when I try the 'Buy' option, the only available software to buy is Pro 3 (not compatible, as previously mentioned).

In this current economic climate, buying a new controller is really not an option.

I believe I've exhausted all options. It seems my S4 (which is still in perfect working order) is no longer usable. Does anyone have a solution, I'm out of ideas.

Thanks.

Sorry. I forgot to mention, I'm now using a Macbook with Windows 10 OS.

I Tried downgrading my MacBook as far as possible, but it seems it is no longer possible to downgrade all the way to 10.11 (El Capitan) - the downloadable 10.11 OS is no longer available.

Did you try the link(s) from down this page ? (I do not have a Mac so I can not check if the downloads actually work or give what they say to give !)

Otherwise you can get the OS here though I have no idea if it is a safe (free form malware and virus) download

This download also says to give the Mac OS X El Capitan and even is a download from Apple. Link was taken from this page !
