mnfesq Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I started using Maximizer (along with SIMBL) when Lion was still in GM. Maximizer is a bundle that gets loaded using SIMBL and makes most apps work in full screen. It adds the arrows found in Safari to most apps and brings added functionality that I found very appealing. When I upgraded to 10.7.1 (and used the test versions of 10.7.2, I lost maximizer's functionality. When I change the SystemVersion info in Core Services, I get that functionality back. When I opened up the Maximizer.bundle, I found that the info.plist is set to work with 10.7 GM. I changed it to 10.7.1 but that alone was not enough to make it work. There are some codes that I didn't know what to do with that appear to need to be changed. Can someone take a look and see if they can figure out how to make Maximizer work in 10.7.1 (and future versions)? Thanks.

mnfesq Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 It turns out that this was easier to fix than I originally thought. I just had to change ALL references to 10.7 to 10.7.1, all references to 11A511 to 11B26 and change GM to Mac OS. There was one reference to 11A511a which I changed to 11B26a. I don't know if that was accurate but maximizer works with those plist edits. Maximizer.bundle.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noam AA Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 actually i'm on 10.7.1 with maximizer as it shipped from the site, and it working great on all apps!(well mostly) i wonder why you needed to do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnfesq Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 actually i'm on 10.7.1 with maximizer as it shipped from the site, and it working great on all apps!(well mostly)i wonder why you needed to do this I had done so many upgrades to the different versions of 10.7.2 and so many reversions, I decided to do a clean install to 10.7 and then an upgrade to 10.7.1. After the upgrade, I installed SIMBL and the Maximizer.bundle. It wouldn't load (or at least there were no arrows in the top right corner.) When I changed the system version info to 10.7, it worked and when I would put in the correct 10.7.1 system information, it would stop working. That's why I started messing with the plist. No clue why this happened when you can use the 10.7 version in 10.7.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
