INSTALLING THE PATCH

Updating Amicus Administrator

  1. Click the link below and download the file SFE900AD.122.zip.
  2. Extract its contents to a temporary location. The extracted file is AAShared.dll.
  3. Ensure that all Team Members have exited from their Amicus Attorney Offices.
  4. If integrating with Amicus Accounting or any third-party products that link with Amicus, ensure that all Team Members have exited from those applications.
  5. Ensure that all Team Members have a logged-out status in Amicus Administrator.
  6. Exit from Amicus Administrator.
  7. Copy the extracted file AAShared.dll to the following folder, replacing the prior version: \Amicus\Amicus Attorney 2009 Small Firm Team\AMICUS.
  8. Start Amicus Administrator.

Updating Team Member Workstations

  • After Amicus Administrator has been updated, each Team Member's workstation will be automatically updated when they log in.
  • Important Note: Although Team Members might have an Amicus Attorney icon on their Desktop, they should instead go to the Start menu to launch Amicus Attorney for the update. Using the Start menu item ensures that AASFECHK.exe is run, which automatically checks for updated files.

  2. Open Windows Explorer and browse to the location where you stored the Patch files AAShared.dll.
