The Omni Group

Your iPad or iPhone contains a specific device identifier that we can use to share early development releases of apps.

Since every Mac has iTunes, here’s how:

• When you plug in your iPad or iPhone, you’ll see general information about your device in iTunes.

• Click on the device’s Serial Number. A new string of numbers and letters will appears; this is your UDID.

• Control-click on the “Identifier (UDID)”, and you’ll be able to copy it to your clipboard!

You can then paste that information into, say, an email.

In addition to a version number (like 2.0), each build of our apps has a revision number which identifies the exact version of the code it’s built from. When we are doing public or private tests where multiple builds have the same version number, we use the revision number to identify each build.

Launch the app for which you’d like to find the revision number. Once it’s running, click the app name in the menu bar and choose About OmniApp. The revision number is the string that starts with an r, just after the version number.

If an Omni app becomes unresponsive (“hangs”, “spins”, or “beachballs”), a sample of the app process will help us figure out why. To take a sample, open Activity Monitor (an application in your /Applications/Utilities/ folder) and double-click the unresponsive app’s name in the list of processes.

In the new window that opens, click the Sample button. When Activity Monitor finishes sampling, click Save… to save the result as a text file. Attach this file to a message to our support team describing what you did directly before the app locked up, and we’ll do the rest! If you get stuck at any point, don’t forget that you can reach us by phone at +1 800-315-6664 between 10am and 5pm PST/PDT (GMT-8/GMT-7).

When an app on your Mac is behaving an an unexpected way, our Support Humans may ask you to send along a Console Log. The log can tell us exactly what is going on behind the scenes and help us resolve the issue.

The Console Application is located in your /Applications/Utilities/ folder. It should open to “All Messages”, showing the log entries for everything that’s happened recently on your Mac.

You can save the log by choosing File > Save a Copy As… (If a specific operation is giving you trouble, make sure to try that operation directly before saving).

Attach the saved console log to a message to Omni Support that includes an overview of the problem you’re having. We’ll do the rest! If you get stuck at any point, don’t forget that you can reach us by phone at +1 800-315-6664 between 10am and 5pm PST/PDT (GMT-8/GMT-7).

Yes, please send email to sales@omnigroup.com, and the appropriate folks here will get in touch with you.

Try entering the code again, double-checking that the License Owner information (including any [EDUCATIONAL LICENSE] text) and the License Code are exactly correct, with no spaces, tabs, or other characters added to either end. Next, double check that you're not trying to enter an OmniWeb code into OmniOutliner, for instance, or an OmniGraffle Pro code into OmniGraffle Standard. If those don't work, send email to sales@omnigroup.com and we'll be happy to be of assistance.

We do our best to respond to all queries by the end of the following business day at the latest; we often respond more quickly than that, and sometimes it takes us a bit longer. Our first priority will always to be to respond to mail from folks that have purchased a license for one of our applications.

When we make a new application (or a new update to an existing application) available for folks to try out, we tend to get much more email than we do at other points of the year. During those high-demand periods, we will respond to as much email as we possibly can, but we can't promise to respond to every message for those specific versions of our software. Rest assured that we do read all email, for all products, and while we may not be able to answer your question directly we do keep track of all user requests and bug reports.

If you send email to sales@omnigroup.com, we'll be happy to help! If at all possible, you'll want to include your order number (look at the order confirmation email we sent you) in the email you send. If you haven't ordered yet, don't worry; just send your question and we'll be happy to help.

Registering your Omni application purchased at retail or that came bundled with your computer is easy! Just visit our Application Registration form. Registering ensures that we are able to provide you with future upgrades, and also enables us to remind you of your license code should you misplace it.

If you purchased the application using our online store just visit the Lost Licenses page and enter the information that page asks for. If we can locate it in our database, we'll send your license code to you ASAP.

If you purchased the application at retail and registered the product using our Application Registration form, the Lost Licenses page should also be able to provide you with your license code. Otherwise, please contact our sales department for further assistance.

Yes! We offer discounts to the staff, faculty, and students of accredited educational organizations. Visit our Educational Store to make a purchase or for current pricing information. We are unable to offer discounted pricing to other non-profit groups at this time.

Boy, have you come to the right place! This page contains lot of information about the various options available to you. For most of our applications, detailed information is available on the support pages specific to each product. You can use the navigation bar at the top of this page to visit the appropriate section. If you'd like to contact us please use the Send Feedback menu item under the Help menu of all of our applications or visit the appropriate support section for the email address to use. 

If you're still not sure, just send to support@omnigroup.com and we'll be happy to help. Folks sometimes ask whether we want one email with lots of items, or lots of emails with one item each. We have a slight preference for the latter, but realistically, we'll take your feedback however you'd like to send it; you're doing us a favor, after all!

Weekdays from 10am to 5pm Pacific time, you can also get phone support by dialing 800 315-6664 or +1 206-523-4152 and choosing the Support option when the nice robo-person asks what extension you'd like. (You can also press "0" if you'd prefer to bypass SkyNet and speak to a soul-bearing entity.)
