I and other have had constant problems with some plugins not working
with 7.0 running on Mac OS X (SuperDateTime being one of them), and it
appears the problem has not been fixed.

However, there is a way to get your problem plugings working.  Credit
for the following work around goes to another member of this forum,
WhaleOil.  

Thanks again WhaleOil for your post.

I lifted the text he wrote helping me with this issue, here you
go.....

I am using Leopard too. I suspect the problem is somewhere between
SC7.0 and the plugins themselves and may be to do with the changing
location of the plugins and preferences.

So far, I can get all the plugins I have tried to work when I put them
in the PreferencePane folder here:
~Users/yourusername/Library/PreferencePanes/SqueezeCenter.prefpane/Contents/server/Plugins

(When you navigate to the PreferencePanes folder you will see an icon
for SqueezeCenter.prefpane. In order to get to the folders inside this
you need to right-click (or ctrl-click) on the icon and choose Show
Package Contents. You will then be able to navigate to
/Contents/server. In this folder there is already an empty Plugins
folder. You can then just drag the various plugin folders into this
folder. There is also a Bin folder which you may need for some plugins
(like mplayer.sh which comes with AlienBBC).)

However, this is not ideal as it means that you have to re-install the
plugins each time you upgrade to a new version of SqueezeCenter as the
installation replaces all of the PreferencePane.

I think the correct place to put the plugins is in
~Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/SqueezeCenter/Plugins
but to date I have only been able to get iTunesUpdate to work when put
in this folder. However, I am still waiting for someone to confirm if
this is correct...

Good luck

WhaleOil

PS The paths above assume that you have installed SC7.0 just for one
user. If you have installed it for all users then you will need to
replace the ~Users/yourusername/Library/ bit for ~/Library/
