Re: [Bibdesk-users] Problem with "open by" and using TimeMachine on Leopard 5.1
Hi Christiaan, it's filed as Bug ID# 5712415. Sth. to add: in the context-menu in Finder there is "Skim (Standard)" and then below "Skim 1.0" mentioned so it does point to an older version accessible via backup. Nevertheless this is confusing.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Problem with "open by" and using TimeMachine on Leopard 5.1
Hi Christiaan, Skim is the default viewer for pdfs on my machine, and double-clicking opens the right one on my startup-disk. Note that this is not in any way critical, there is a workaround (showing pdf in finder, then opening with appropriate (different) viewer etc.) it just looks wrong.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Problem with "open by" and using TimeMachine on Leopard 5.1
Is Skim the default app for PDFs? If so, this is mostly a problem of Apple, because it chooses a random copy as the default (and that's the one we always include). E.g. if you just double-click in Finder, which one will it choose? On my computer it consistently chooses the wrong copy. I filed a bug report with Apple a while ago, which they don't want to acknowledge. Otherwise we should always prefer the version in /Applications, if it exists. Is that not the case for you? I have no idea how to recognize a version from Time Machine.

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Problem with "open by" and using TimeMachine on Leopard 5.1
Hi Christiaan, I tried the latest build: http://bibdesk.demokratia.org/beta/BibDesk-20080128.dmg Unfortunately it doesn't work (fully): The context-menu is properly de- populated BUT when chosing the ONLY version of Skim available it STILL opens some version from TimeMachine-Backup. The screenshot diden't go through, I can send it to you directly if you are interested and contact me directly (e-mail below). It shows that the app which BibDesk openedwas the very FIRST Skim-app saved by TimeMachine (not the one on my startup-disk).

Re: [Bibdesk-users] Problem with "open by" and using TimeMachine on Leopard 5.1
Please try the next nightly build to se of this problem is solved. We will now remove duplicate apps with the same version number. So old versions in time machine may still show up.

I don't know what Finder does. I guess it does some extra filtering of the returned app. It does show less apps for me. It's stupid LS does not do this. I'm not sure how this should be fixed. Perhaps we should have to filter out duplicates. Christiaan - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
