Uploading, downloading, and delivering files with high speed file distribution in GLOBALedit is made possible with .  Here is what one of our Industrial Color Software developers has to say about the Aspera technology:  

"Aspera has created an innovated technology that overcomes many of the issues often found with high speed networking. 

"Aspera's fasp technology offers many advantages over traditional data transfer systems. It efficiently transfers data with little retransmit. Even though it is implemented as a secure, cross-platform, software solution it does not exhaust your computer's system resources.

"Where ever you are in the world, GLOBALedit and Aspera's fasp technology will bring you and your users together. The fasp technology handles most issues caused by networks that are physically separated by large distances where network latency and error are common. 

"Aspera's fasp technology effectively uses any available bandwidth, whereas traditional data transfer systems use a token amount of your bandwidth at any time. As this bandwidth is consumed or released by other systems, fasp adapts to handle these changes.

"All communication is encrypted and secure, ensuring that all your valuable assets are safe with GLOBALedit. Aspera uses 128-bit AES encryption that is used to protect critical government data . Aspera's fasp technology is built to withstand many common security flaws with existing data transfer systems.

"GLOBALedit and Aspera's fasp technology represent the fastest and most secure method to maximize the value of your assets."

GLOBALedit provided image management for the publicity images of USA Network's series "Psych."  A new episode premieres tonight at 10pm/9pm C.

The newest 3.9 release of GLOBALedit has updated the way we deal with user logins. Now, you can create unique login names that do not have to be an

email address. 

For example, instead of logging in as "johndoe@mail.com", you can be "johndoe", "jdoe", "johnd", or even "awesome3000".

This is good news for those managing talent approvals, since talents often share publicists. The new user login features allows you to create multiple, unique user accounts linked to the same email address. You can have

"TalentA", "TalentB", and "TalentC", all with the same email address.

Create your unique user names in the "Login Name" field when you "Add New User".

Mozilla has recently released their new Firefox version 3.6. If you've already upgraded, you may have experienced some problems with GLOBALedit, FileSociety, or other Flash-based applications. Currently, there is a known bug in using Flash 9+ applications in Firefox 3.6 that will hopefully be fixed by Mozilla quickly. We are working on a patch fix for the GLOBALedit and FileSociety sites as well.

Until then, if you continue to experience problems, you can downgrade to a previous version of Firefox here:

Additionally, if you've upgraded to Firefox 3.6, you will need to download the newest verstion of the Aspera plugin that facilitates your high speed transfers. This version fixes Firefox 3.6 issues for Intel-based MACs and Windows PCs, and can be downloaded here:
