I am running os 10.4.10 (kernel 8.10.1), updated from uphuck v1.4i 10.4.9r3.

 

I installed the dictionary.app (via a jas 10.4.6 disc and pacifist) and also installed the two OED dictionary files to /Library/Dictionaries.

 

Dictionary.app works fine, however when the apple dictionary widget doesnt work. Whenever I type in a word and hit enter, it doesn't do anything.

 

I'm assuming that the widget cannot locate the dictionary. Does anyone know of a solution for this or happen to be experiencing the same problem?

 

Thanks in advance

I finally fixed it. I went to my /Library/Widgets and deleted my dictionary.wdgt and used Pacifist and extracted the dictionary.wdgt from a JAS 10.4.6 dvd. I put that extracted dictionary widget into /Library/Widgets, repaired permissions, and re-booted. It's working fine now.
