Hi; I recently have recovered my Jaguar system after after a mishap.
Part of the troubleshooting before recovery involved, from command
line, re-naming the root Library's Seti screensaver folder so the
screensaver would not activate (it's a long story, but the screensaver
was activating even tho I could not access the OS). That renamed Seti
folder (seti.old) is now in the "Previous system" folder, and the Seti
application can't find it so the screensaver won't activate. Now I want
to re-activate it. Here is what I have done: I made a new folder in the
new system's root Library and named it what I thought was the previous
name, [EMAIL PROTECTED] I duplicated the files that were in the "old"
Seti folder and put the originals in the new Library's Seti folder that
I created. But the screensaver still will not activate. I think if I
had named the folder correctly this would work, wouldn't it? Or is this
something that should have only been done through the command line? I
have tried re-naming the new folder several ways: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] - but none of these has worked.
Could someone who runs Seti version 3.08 for OSX check their root
library's folders and tell me exactly what it is named? Or give me a
clue as to where my thinking went wrong?
I do know I could just trash the entire Seti stuff and re-download the
application, with no major loss. But I'm still trying to learn more
about how OSX works, while avoiding command line if possible. Thanks
for any help.
