Easier fix
I think the system only searches for apps in the various Applications folders (/Applications; ~/Applications; etc.). This means if you put your apps in /Apps, they won't be able to provide their services, etc. So make sure your apps are 'downstream' of /Applications. If, like me, you don't like having apps loose in /Applications, you can 'blend' your older apps with the new guts using the FileMerge app in /Developer/Applications.
How-To: This may sound tedious, but it is far simpler than replacing all of the contents by hand. I used the above method to merge all the updates from 10.1.3 without any trouble, but you still can't sue me if it breaks your box. ;) Rob, feel free to repost this as a stand-alone tip if you think it merits the effort. |
