Regarding the last post, I renamed the folders with a “.app” suffix and it corrected the problem. Very strange.

I ran this script and the movies work in Premiere. The problem is that now itunes, ichat, and many other software have dissapeared from their respective folders. in /applications/itunes all I see is “contents” the entire program file is missing. Can anybody shed some light on where all of my programs went?

Regards,
James

Any word on how to accomplish this task on a PC (sorry for the nasty word), us corporate types have to create with one hand tied behind our back…

Oh of course, you don’t have the dev tools installed. Email me (alex@alexbeckett.co.uk) and I’ll try and work you through it…

(Sorry I forgot to put .app at the end, but when I did I got the same message with iWeb, iMovie and Safari)

Yeah sorry, I did try it with the space before and it says:

oliver-jenkinss-macbook:~ oliverjenkins$ GetFileInfo /Applications/iWeb.app
-bash: GetFileInfo: command not found

I tried it with another app too:

oliver-jenkinss-macbook:~ oliverjenkins$ GetFileInfo /Applications/iMovie
-bash: GetFileInfo: command not found

That should be the right path, as the location of my apps are all in the /Applications folder. Although, when I do the same to Safari, (which I have just reinstalled and now works fine) I get the same message:

oliver-jenkinss-macbook:~ oliverjenkins$ GetFileInfo /Applications/Safari
-bash: GetFileInfo: command not found

Ah there needs to be a space between GetFileInfo and the /Applications/iWeb.app . If that doesn’t work try the path to an app which exists on your system…

Yes a fine mess indeed. Thanks for your help with this. The message I get back is:

Unknown-00-23-12-01-c6-ea:~ oliverjenkins$ GetFileInfo/Applications/iWeb.app
-bash: GetFileInfo/Applications/iWeb.app: No such file or directory

Now there’s a fine mess you’ve gotten yourself into Oliver. Can you fire up a terminal for me then enter “GetFileInfo /Applications/iWeb.app” and let me know what you get as a reply?

Thanks,
Alex
