[Mulberry-discuss] Mulberry unable to find preferences on reinstalled Mac

[Martin Dietze]

I just reinstalled my Macbook and recovered my home dir from a backup.
When I now start Mulberry it asks me for my configuration, though
there still is my mulberry configuration in Library/Preferences.

What can I do to not have to enter everything again by hand?

Cheers,

Martin

Thanks for the quick reply. Am chagrined that I did not notice the "open"
button!!
A nuance: when I click 'Open' the file dialog does not show either the
com.* or the Mulberry Prefs file as selectable under "All Readable
Documents" or "Mulberry preferences file". But it worked after I selected
"All Documents.
Thanks!!!

Platform: OS X (from 10.4.11. to 10.5.2)
Mulberry version: 4.0.8 (freshly installed on both platforms)
In the past I have successfully moved my Mulberry preferences to
a new installation. I believe I have done so by copying these
~/Library/Preferences/com.cyrusoft.mulberry.plist
~/Library/Preferences/Mulberry Prefs
This time, when I start 4.0.8 on the new machine it comes up
with no preferences. Am I missing a file? Do preferences not
port across OS versions? Any help appreciated, as I can't find
this in the documentation.

I'm not sure why it's not working the way you're trying it, but I
have a suggestion for a workaround. Use the "Open" button in the
Preferences dialog to open your old preferences. Then click "Save
Default". That should do it.

Hope this helps.
