Since lsregister -kill removes all of your application bindings, that's not surprising... Anyway, if you have TeX Live Utility installed, it uses a UTI of org.tug.tex.dvi and a name of "DVI Document." It's an imported type, so ordinarily it shouldn't interfere with Skim's declaration (which is also recognized for Quick Look and Spotlight import). If you have an ancient version of my DVI Spotlight importer installed, it uses yet another UTI (and should be removed). >> You can also use lsregister -dump to see what app is claiming it. > > -bash: lsregister: command not found Christiaan gave the full path in a previous post: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/ Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
