Hi Scott, The pList wouldn't open with a double-click, but I could open it in a text editor. I've rebuilt the stack step by step without adding sound and the new one displays the icon in the finder. This is a puzzle stack and is the basis of five stacks -- all of them display the same pro

Hello Randy, You might try copying one of the pLists from your other apps and editing the relative bits and then replacing the one that won't open with the newly edited one. I haven't had any problems with pList "corruption," though. Are you using a pList editor to open it with or a text

Hi Scott, Yes, I tried that method as well as command-D to no avail. However, I hadn't thought to check the pList. It won't open -- that suggests corruption. The pLists in all the other standalones I made do open. I'm using the default settings in the rev standalone settings. Any thoughts

That's one of the advantages of having as poor eyesight as I do. I have to read slowly and with large type, so not much escapes me. I am really crazy about Firefox's great Zoomability; so very much better than Safari's. Joe Wilkins On Jun 19, 2008, at 10:28 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: Joe

Hello Randy, I'm in the habit of Option + dragging the recalcitrant application in order to "duplicate" it. For me, this always seems to jar the Finder in the needed way. If this doesn't do it for me it has always meant a problem elsewhere. In my case it usually means I've messed up the

Hi Randy, Do you see any icon at all? What kind of? Are all standalones for Mac of the same time, i.e. either for Intel or PPC, or universal? Are you sure that you have set the application icon, rather than the document icon? Which icns files do you see inside the application package? Th

I've been making a Standalone on OSX Tiger (10.2.4). I believe I have a well-formed icon - a .icns file made with Iconographer, including the largest size version (128x128). I can make the Standalone easily enough, and when I put it in the Applications folder, I get the proper icon; but if
