Hi
Does anyone have or know off a utility that will look at a file and then give it
the correct extension?
We are moving away from our AFP file server and will be only using SMB
connections so of course loose the resource fork nd as we have many thousands of

Hi Roger,
In the finder get info window, under name and extension, you have the Hide
extension checkbox - if you uncheck this the extension should reappear.
Of course doing this on an individual file basis would be a pain!
Two approaches come to mind (just ideas - I've never tried this)

Thanks Neil
Its fine with new files that are created as we do use extensions on new files :)
It's just the thousands of old files we have that have no extension, these

I did have a look at that and it didn't work, so would have to look at the code

I have been following this correspondence. I have a spare external
drive partition with full 10.5.7 on it plus TT5, Disk Warrior and a
couple of other similar tools. From what you say, in addition to this

Hi Severin,
Yes, that is correct. I have TTP5 installed on an External Firewire
Drive ( TechTool Protégé when Micromat release an update Protégé

After you install TTP5 on your Internal Drive be sure to open the

I booted from the Install disk and repaired permissions and that seems to
have solved the problem. It listed a large number of permissions that it
repaired. But I will certainly uninstall TT Pro.

In the last 5 years I've had a 12 Powerbook and more recently a 13

My laptops rarely get turned off. I close the lid, put them in my bag
and they get taken out and opened up several times a day,
Hi Lloyd,
Have you tried doing a safe boot (hold down the shift key on restart until
the Apple symbol appears) (restart might take some time) and the run repair

Hi Lloyd, I have TTP5 installed on an external drive, but have also
reinstalled TTP5 on my laptop, with protection turned on, and its now
working well. I did download TTP5 from the link at the bottom of the

I had a large number of permissions that needed repairing as well.
However, I had not repaired permission after installing the last
update, plus when I was having problems, one of the issues was not
being able to repair permissions using disk utility.
