I have a computer with text offline
Is it possible to install the updates online?

If you ask Mellel to update itself on a machine connected to the internet it downloads a file of changes, applies those changes to itself, and deletes the file before it restarts. So there’s no way to capture the update and apply it to a second copy of Mellel on a machine that doesn’t connect to the internet.

What you can do, however, is download the newest version of Mellel from the Mellel website and copy it onto your isolated machine via a thumb drive. I would run this copy from the Desktop to make sure it’s working properly before letting it replace the older version in your Applications folder. The new copy should recognize any registration info you entered into your older copy of Mellel, and it should have access any custom templates and styles in your existing Application Support folder. But make sure this is working properly before you delete anything.
