WisconsinMark Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I have noticed after installing Switch on my Mac G4 running 10.4.9, that any software I install with a dot (like software.5) in the name, loads Switch instead of launching the software. I cannot figure out how to disable Switch except for when I want to convert a file. Anybody know how? Thanks in advance. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anybody from Switch been in touch with you about this? Have you found a temporary solution? Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Andy Mark, I've had advice from elsewhere that renaming applications you have problems with so that they end '.app' might prevent them from being mistaken for Switch documents. I reverted to an old version of Switch, as I said before, so I haven't tried it, but it sounds like a plausible course of action.

Andy Murkin Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Please see nch.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=5937. nchto, Thanks for posting on this. I've checked the other thread, and am up to speed on this. In the meantime, I'll continue my trial using the older version. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
