Problems upgrading OneWorldTimetable

Is anyone else having problems with upgrading (the latest version is May 7th) the One World Timetable? When I try to install it, it just runs for about 20 seconds, and then disappears out of task manager. Were this not the same on 2 different computers, I'd put it down to a problem on a specific machine. I've tried uninstalling the old version, and then re-installing the new one - but it does the same.

Any ideas? BTW, it did this for the previous version too, I think it was April 30th. But now I've got 2 machines with it not working on, and I found it very useful.

Thanks. I've now been through a uninstall,clean-registry,reboot,install cycle and it's working on both machines now. Weird.

On a related note, I see that there are two different OW timetable programs; the first I found on FT somewhere, and the second on the OW site (under Travel planning) just now. Are both "official"? They're both pretty up to date.

Good question, don't know. The one I have is version 3.1.32gcc (click on Help|About...). Can you give us a brief review on the differences?

Although I've only used the one from the OW Travel Planner link for a few minutes, it does have a more modern UI; it offers a schedules and Itineraries facility with the latter perhaps more friendly than before; it's version is 3.0.0.4 with data version 1.0 and is written by Innovata.

I'd say that it basically looks to be just an improved version...so I suspect OW have switched the contract for providing this to Innovata.

Both are missing what would be a most useful feature for xONEx planning - indication of cabin classes available.

I use the oneworld timetable from Cathay's web site. It is quite nice. I have all the three (From AA, One world and CX) and usually end up using the CX one
As a rule I uninstall all old versions with Symantec Clean sweep and then install the new version. Never had a problem
