10.4: Be aware of some PowerPC - Intel migration issues
I also noticed this when I migrated using the Assistant. My Apple-supplied Widgets (particularly the Flight Tracker I think) were non-functional because they had been copied from my G4 during migration. I ended up having to reinstall OS X anyway.
10.4: Be aware of some PowerPC - Intel migration issues
Widgets are cross platform by design. There is no such thing as a PPC or Intel widget.
That is incorrect. There are several widgets that I (m)
have installed that cause the translated service to startup whenever I activate dashboard. If I remove those widgets from dashboard, the translated service does not startup when I activate dashboard.
10.4: Be aware of some PowerPC - Intel migration issues
Not true. Widgets can call native code (e.g. objc). That code might be PPC only.
A ery good point; and a common problem.
The Apple Discussions board for Dashboard is filled with people who have done the same thing. Some people seem to believe that widgets are only XHTML, CSS and JavaScript and thus Universaility does not apply. However, many sophisticated widgets hava WebKit and/or Cocoa plugins and as compiled code, these can be PowerPC only. |
