Aha! FernDave's hack brings PithHelmet back to life w/ OS 10.4.7 - nnager

Forgot to mention that I used TextEdit to open the "info.plist file." I was initially stumped when clicking on "info.plist file" didn't do anything. Once TextEdit opened the file , all I had to do was do a Command-F find of MaxBundleVersion and type in its place 420.

This worked great for me. Thanks for the tip. It's amazing how much you miss this plugin when it breaks.

Wow, it did work, but I almost backed out when I did a find on MaxBundleVersion and came up with two different places, the 417 and a second one in the 500's. I finally got brave and changed the 417 to 420 and luckily, it worked for me.

Yeah, I'm done updating the OS until this plugin gets updated. I forget how out of control websites have become until I try to read a news article with cartoons and movies playing all around me.

My eyes and brain thank you for this mindsaver.

There are actually four instances of MaxBundleVersion: 417, 412, 520, and 460. As trebory points out, changing 417 to 420 works. I haven't tried changing the others to 420 instead to see what would happen.
