I am so tired!!! working for 6 hrs...trying to fix Dashboard!!! I have 8 months with this MBP!!! It is beatiful!! But I have spent DAYS trying to fix details that I had not to fight in WINDOWS!!!
it is frustrating!!!!
This is my problem!!! I have two accounts in my MPB 2.2, 120 GB, Leopard 10.5.3, 2 GB RAM...etc
I CAN NOT INSTALL ANY WIDGET in my dashboard!!!! All they are fully working in my Administrator account!!! But not in my Stardard User.
If I delete a widget already installed few months ago...and then, when I download it again and run the installer...it works!!!! But I can not install a widget that was not installed previously!!!! I can not install new widgets!!!
Inclusive, I can not update widgets already installed, i.e. DraeUtil or To Do notes.
When I download the latest update...It doesn´t work!!!! And when I reinstall the former version It works!!!!
I already tried to delete: caches....preferences (.plist) of dashboard, dashboardclient...and the widgets affected!!! But nothing happens!!! I can not install updates nor new widgets!!!
I can download new widgets, ZIP files opens...and the install box appears...and the widget is set in widget folder. But IT DOESNT APPEAR IN DASHBOARD. When I click on it...nothing happens!!
When I open manage Dashboard...there are they!! but when i drag it to the dashboard...Dashboard quits unexpectly!!!
In the Console...there is no message!!! I don´t know what is happening!!!
I tried to open a new Account with administrator privileges, and widgets works!!!
I entered my ROOT user...and change ownership (chown) and groups (chmod) of affected widgets...
Look at this:
Terminal status of each Widget in its folder myuser/Library/Widgets/
bash-3.2# ls -la /Users/drjosias/Library/Widgets
total 16

I already runned chmod 755 to assign total permissions to the widget folder..!!! But It also doesnt worked!!!
The affected widget is: TRANSLATOR...but this is only one example. Every new widget installed does not work!!!!!
The others widgets previously installed (months ago) are fully working!!! Inclusive, even though I have deleted and reinstalled.
PLEASE....any suggestion??? I need help!! I am tired to fix every bug of Leopard!! again and again!!
Thank you friends!!!
pd. I already repaired permission etc with Onyx 1.9.1...caches...preferences...etc...
