Why Upgrade?
This new version costs US $12 to upgrade from previous versions of DragThing 2, and US $29 for new users.
This is only the second time I've charged for an upgrade since the original release back in 1997. DragThing 4 has had over two and a half years of free upgrades since its original release in March 2001 - charging for this upgrade will help to support similar future development of DragThing 5. This new version represents a lot of work and it just isn't realistic to make every upgrade free. I hope you can understand.
I work full time writing Macintosh software for my company TLA Systems Ltd. which employs both myself and my wife Saskia. By upgrading or registering DragThing you are helping support a small independent company to make great Macintosh-only software. Help us keep doing it, and we'll write the best software we can in return.
How to Upgrade
If you've previously registered DragThing via Kagi, upgrading is very similar. Visit the online ordering page at
to securely pay online via your credit card and other payment methods. See the "How to Register" page for more of the details.
Please note that if you order the DragThing 5 Upgrade, you will be given a special upgrade serial number which only works in combination with a DragThing 2 or DragThing 4 serial number. If DragThing 5 is unable detect a registration number for a previous version, you will have to enter both the original full registration and the upgrade serial numbers. If you don't have an existing DragThing serial number, the upgrade serial number won't be of any use, and you should order the full registration serial number instead.
If you have not kept a record of your original serial number the fastest way to get it might be to use Kagi's self service automated order tracking system on this page
which allows you to search for your past orders made through Kagi.
If you can't find your old number or can't remember if you registered before, let me know at the address below and I'll look it up for you.
If you have any questions, just get in touch with me personally at james.t@kagi.com.
