Where to put Audacity plug-ins?

Rachel — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 18:14:52 +0000

The Audacity documentation isn’t exactly clear on this… Trial and error led me to the right answer – copy the plug-ins directory from the installation .dmg to Applications/Audacity.app/Contents/MacOS i.e. the same directory as the executable.

OSX compilation problem

/usr/bin/ld: /System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/WebKit load command 20 unknown cmd field

You get this if you’ve upgraded the version of OSX without upgrading the Developer Tools (the Xcode tools).

How To Sync Palm Tungsten T with iSync

Rachel — Thu, 18 Jan 2007 09:40:56 +0000

This definitely doesn’t work out of the box…

New iMac with OSX 10.4 “Tiger”, old Palm Tungsten T.

1) Install Palm Desktop

2) What you should be able to do now, is open iSync and run “Devices>Enable Palm OS syncing”. What you get if you do that is a message saying that Palm HotSync hasn’t been installed properly.

This is a file permissions problem. You’ll need to give “admin” RW access to /library/Application Support/”Palm Desktop” and “Palm HotSync” (only one of these needs to be changed, but I can’t remember which one)

3) Now try iSync>Devices>Enable Palm OS syncing again and it should work.

4) Don’t make the mistake of thinking that now you run iSync>Devices>Add Device – you don’t need to do this, and it won’t find the Palm anyway.

5) Run Palm HotSync Manager, and select “HotSync>Conduit Settings”

Double-click on “isync conduit” and enable it
