CAPTION DESK FIELD — NEW INSTALLATION
Apple silicon (M1 or later), macOS 15 or later.
Choose a permanent folder before first opening. Extract the complete folder, then
open Check this Mac.command and Open Caption Desk.command. Keep its Terminal open.
This new installation starts with empty work, face library and delivery settings.
Existing users: use the cumulative UPDATE instead; never replace a used folder.
Approval writes metadata to selected original JPEGs and clears ordinary camera locks.
Agency delivery is available after you enter your own destination settings.
Caption Desk checks and downloads verified updates automatically when it starts.
Use Check for updates to check again. Save work in every app window, then choose
Install and restart when ready. Imports, learning and transfers must finish first.
You can defer installation and keep working, or install after closing the app.
If a download/check fails, it does not mean you are up to date. Manual updates work offline.
Keep update-backups and the installation folder for recovery. Do not share private data.
This is a privately distributed unsigned/not-notarized beta; verify the trusted
sender and the separately supplied archive SHA256 before first opening.
No personal photos, saved matches, face library, credentials or diagnostics are included.
