Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of RocketDock 1.2.5.

What's new in this version:

- Complete rewrite of rendering code
- Improved performance on systems with newer video cards. Older systems will vary in performance
- Icons now slide and transition smoothly like the OS X dock
- Icons and docklets now bounce when launching or getting your attention
- Icons now do a "poof" animation while deleting
- Icons now are solid so you cannot "click through" transparent areas by mistake
- Added support for RK Launcher skins
- Improved support for skins that use tiling (in various formats)
- Better ObjectDock Docklet SDK support
- Popup on Mouseover no longer interrupts fullscreen applicaitons
- Drag 'n Drop from the Start Menu now works
- Dropping files/folders onto folders in the dock now performs a copy operation
- Dropping files/folders onto any ReycleBin icon will now act properly
- Dropping files/folders onto programs on the dock now launches the program with the dropped file as an argument (much like explorer)
- Added a new error catching system to ensure that RocketDock loads properly. If it has a problem loading it will now ask you if it should revert to defaults
- Redesigned zoom algorithm to solve visual glitches and to support new effects
- Massive restructuring and organization of the entire project
- Simplified and (hopefully) fixed thread syncronization...
- Added "Update" menu item when right-clicking on the dock
