The replacement is displayed in the Finder with the original's icon, and Get Info shows the original's version number. I examined the installed Info.plist, and verified that the correct, updated information is there. The application works, demonstrates the updated features, and displays the correct version information in the about box. If I copy the updated application elsewhere, the icon and the displayed version are correct. I assume there is some Launch Services or Finder cache that doesn't get kicked by my installation. What should I be doing about this? Mac OS X 10.4.11 There's an AppleEvent/AppleScript call to the Finder which you can try (look for 'update' in the Finder's scripting dictionary). Also maybe a call to LSRegisterURL() might kick the Finder into displaying the new info. I can say the 'update' call to the Finder works for files, but can't remember if I've every tried it for an application. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
