I went to http://www.satscape.info/modx/index.php?id=50 and had java replace Satscape and now it works fine. Scott Hather moved his web site and Satscape was still looking for the old one for updates with no luck.
As for Satscape for JAVA never working, my first installation three or so years ago went fine. When I installed it on another mac a year or so later, I saw the problem with times being off and I corrected the problem by copying a satscape folder from the first machine to the new one. I never figured out how to fix it in the user settings.

Dave,
I just Google's Satscape and found this alternate page: http://www.satscape.info/modx/index.php?id=50
See if this works for you.

Rick,
I am using Java version. It is complaining about a required field <jnlp> missing from the launch file.
I find that I can't get to www.satscape.co.uk so maybe Satscape is not able to update itself.
I would be interested in getting the classic version from you.
Thanks, Dave W8IJ

Dave,
Are you using the Java Version or the Classic version?
Personally, I prefer the classic. If you need I have a copy.
