My son loves this software!
I read the other reviews and almost didn't buy this software for my son but we have Windows XP and I had no trouble installing it. He plays this at school and this is exactly the same. My son loves it!
wont work at all
Was looking forward to upgrade from K3 to K4 but the program won't install properly and can't be accessed. To make things worse, I can't uninstall it either as it keeps giving me an error on the uninstall. In addition, I can't reinstall Kpix 3. This was one of my son's favorite programs and am trying to find a substitute that won't be beholden to the error that seems to be infecting both programs.
Intet Mac Computers!!!!
I have used Kid Pix as an educator for many years. This year with our new Intel Macs using Deluxe 4 has been a nightmare. There will be sudden freeze ups where no tools can be used. Fortunately you can save the student's work, then do a Force Quit, open the saved document, and then the student can continue working. Also at times when just saving one's work, the computer will come back and say ERROR in saving work yet the work was saved. Also the label function does not work. If you draw a character first and then insert a new background the background goes over the character. If you insert the background first, and then draw a character, you cannot fill the character in with a bucket. You can however color it in with a drawing tool. I hope that Broderbund will update this program to utilize the full power of the new Intel Macs. Otherwise it is time for us Mac users to find a program that will allow students the creativity that Kid Pix used to offer.
