Product Description:

RCDefaultApp is a preference pane that allows a user to set the default application used for various URL schemes, file extensions, file types, and MIME types. MacOS X uses the extension and file type settings to choose the application when opening a file in Finder, while Safari and other applications use the URL and MIME type settings at other times for content not related to a file (such as an unknown URL protocol, or a media stream).

RCDefaultApp ReviewConfusing... - Version: 2.1, 11/28/2009 08:53AM PST

randomscreenname99
Confusing and full of unexplained acronyms and options that don't work intuitively and are not well explained in the dense and brain numbing readme file.

You can really mess things up with this thing. Once you click the 'Set as default' button there is now way to reverse this action.

If you're not a total geek who like to spend hours deciphering how an app works, don't touch this with a 10 foot barge pole!

RCDefaultApp Troubleshooting ReportThis version does not work with Panther - Version: 2.1, 9/21/2009 03:40PM PST

Al Varnell
Could not use this on my Panther machine. Developer has been notified and responded, in part, as follows:

"... there is no new functionality for Panther users in this release, except for the Spanish localization (which could be copied in manually if it is important). There is a new feature for 10.4, and more for 10.5+. It did work on 10.4, as I tested that successfully."

"...I'll look at it when I get the chance, which may not be for several days."
