- Thread-topic: Changing default file <-> application association
Hi folks,
I have an application that we wrong. There is an older version of the
application that I will call V0, and a newer version of the application that
I will call V1.
I have both V0 and V1 installed on my computer(s) (Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7).
Both V0 and V1 generate application specific documents (files) that can be
opened by both V0 and V1.
Mac OS X associates the all instances of my application specific
documents/files with V1. When I try to change such association using:
Right Click on File -> Get Info -> Open With -> Select Application -> Change
All
Mac OS X refused to change the association for an unknown reason (even
though it lists V0 as a candidate). It is not clear to me why that is the
case. Interestingly, when I try to change the association on just that
particular file (not all files of the same type) it works like a charm.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Abdul
