CrystalMaker Advice Centre No CrystalMaker files visible in file dialog |
||
|
This problem seems to be associated with older versions of the
Macintosh operating system (before Mac OS 8.6), and relates to
the pre-Navigation Services file dialogs. Upgrading to
Mac OS 9, or later, seems to fix these problems.
When displaying file dialog boxes, CrystalMaker uses standard operating system procedures, requesting that certain types of files (e.g., CrystalMaker binary files) are listed. If problems do occur, they are most likely due to corrupted system software and/or an out-of-date desktop database file. The desktop database file is an invisible file which the system uses to keep track of which documents "belong" to which application - and hence, which icons to be display for different file types. You can force the system to update (rebuild) your desktop database by restarting your Mac with the command and option keys held down. If rebuilding your desktop doesn't fix the file dialog problem, you should try checking your system with a disc utility package (e.g., Disk First Aid, or Norton Utilities) - or consider upgrading your system to a more recent version (e.g., Mac OS 9, or later). |
