Yes, that is true, but it was the only possibility to get rid of the double entries. at least the only one that I found. marius.

Watch out, I am pretty sure that it deletes all your associations as well, and will prompt you again with the "this App hasn't been run before, run it?" dialog.

I finally found the solution to this annoying problem. you have to rebuild the launch service database (see http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20031215144430486 ) I ran the following command, and that fixed it.
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user

This is a bug I run into a lot. Basically, if you have a lot of versions of Pd, it confused the assocations system. Try removing random ones. I have found that I have to clean out the associations system from time to time because I am always trying many different versions. I forgot how to do it now... I think it's done by deleting some file in /Library/Caches and rebooting. .hc On Oct 2, 2007, at 11:45 AM, marius schebella wrote:
yes, that should do it, but not here. when I select Pd-extended it immediately get reset. there must be some hidden mechanism that always choses the newer version or a file where that is stored... I have no clue what I have to search for to get this fixed. marius.

Hi Marius
This worked for me:
In Finder, Get Info on any Pd file, Open With -> choose your version -> Change All...
Hope this helps
