aikidoka25 Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I am using OS X 10.6.3 whenever I right click a file in Finder, I got multiple open with, I had tried /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user and deleting files com.apple.LaunchServices,plist com.apple.LaunchServices.QuarantineEvents also tried with OnyX but finder still showing duplicates open with There is a strange thing, I tried to capture the screen using Grab, but .... when Grab is active the "Open with" is correct and there are no duplicates. Is there other program besides Grab that I can use to capture the screen? Any suggestions/ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aikidoka25 Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 I changed the kernel to vanilla 10.6.3 (before I was using teateam modified kernel) and now I am able to capture the screen shot using Grab. I noticed the pattern, they are repeated 4 times, no matter what file I selected. Now I am suspecting that perhaps there is a third party kexts/application interferes with Finder, because Path Finder doesn't show any duplicates. But I prefer to use Finder than the heavy Path Finder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aikidoka25 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 i confirmed this is a bug, perhaps Finder and PS2 mouse (as the trackpad is recognized) don't match well. this is happening with VoodooPS2 and ApplePS2, but not when I right click the icon using an external USB mouse. however, there is a simple workaround, i only need to right click anywhere except on a file, then right click the file again, and the duplicates are gone. perhaps there is a memory leak within the kext? Are there any other alternatives besides VoodooPS2 and AppPS2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
