Stickies

i'm having a ridiculous amount of permissions being repaired every time. how about this for a first time repair (i've not repaired in about 2 weeks): actually i can't upload it, i can't even just paste the text as the plain text file is 9mb. after all those permissions have been repaired, i run it again. i get this Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”...

You don't need Pacifist to reinstall Mail. not sure about Stickies. You can just do a Custom Install from your Tiger disc. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301229

I just came to wondering, if I accidently deleted a default app, say Stickies or Mail, how would i go about replacing it.. ...

I've done a repair on file permissions about ten times today and it always seems to have the same problems. It never tells me that there isn't anything left to fix. Is this normal? Here is the output that I got the last time I ran it. I should say that I have not rebooted at all today. Do I need to reboot after repairing permissions? Also, as you can see below, it seems...

Thank you Bob! I had erased the database, but not the plist! Thank you so much, I will be sure to come to you guys with any future questions!

Trash this file - 'com.apple.Stickies.plist' - located in user/library/preferences Trash this file - 'StickiesDatabase' - located in user/library Then try Stickies.

To print onto stickies I use CDJacquet Dead Easy and an affordable shareware, check it here : http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/cdjacquet.html
