Thanks. This is effectively what I am doing as a workaround, and perhaps what I should adopt as a general practice. The computer is still going to go back to the doctor, because this particular behavior is one of several malfunctions I have noted since the
computer’s lobotomy. Another is that, in the Mail program, sometimes clicking on a particular message, instead of opening that message, opens that mail folder( in the list of mail folders on the left side of the window) immediately to the left of where the
message icon sits.

<div class="">I am still puzzled about how the default app for ALL my .tex files got changed, and in particular how I can re-set it so that ALL of them open with TeXShop.<br class="">

Zbigniew,

</div>
<div class="">Certainly using "Get Info" is the thing to do when an</div>
<div class="">unusual app tries to open a TeXShop file. This step almost</div>
<div class="">always fixes the problem, and if you have this sort of</div>
<div class="">trouble, most of us will assume you tried the step before</div>
<div class="">writing.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">--------------</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">You might like to try a technique I use here. As you might</div>
<div class="">guess, I have LOTS of different versions of TeXShop on my</div>
<div class="">machine. So long ago I gave up on double clicking a file</div>
<div class="">to open it in TeXShop, because I never knew which</div>
<div class="">version would run.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Instead I keep the latest TeXShop on my desktop.</div>
<div class="">(Another similar technique is to drag the</div>
<div class="">icon for `/Library/TeX/TeXShop to the dock, and then always</div>
<div class="">move new versions of the program to ~/Library/TeX/TeXShop.)</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Either way, there is a visible TeXShop icon on the desktop,</div>
<div class="">and I know that it points to the latest version.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If I'm going to work on a document that I often work on,</div>
<div class="">I just start TeXShop by double-clicking the TeXShop icon,</div>
<div class="">and use the menu item "Open Recent." </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">And if I want to work on an older document, I find</div>
<div class="">that document and drag it's icon to the TeXShop icon and drop it</div>
<div class="">there.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thus I never double click a file icon, and I'm certain the latest TeXShop</div>
<div class="">is running. These techniques are fast and easy.</div>

</span>I should have done this before sending the previous email. I hadn’t ever used the “get info” option: on a random tex source file, under “open with”, it listed a long list of applications, but put Excalibur (now) as the default. The other ones included
about six different versions of TeXShop, all but one of them labeled with a version number that tells me I no longer even have it. One is listed simply with the TeXShop logo, no version number. Is there a way to (1) check what version that one is, and (2)
if so, to make it automatically the default for all such files? This certainly seems to be the root of my problem, I suppose when the logic board was changed (or when I installed TeXShop 6.35) the default was somehow re-set.</span></div>

in the middle of all this I decided to try to get a clean re-install of TS 6.35. I trashed the old one, then went through downloading and installing it again. It works fine, but I happened to notice that (in finder, when I am in Applications) the information
about “last modified" says it was July 18, not today (July 20). I think July 18 may have been when I installed the previous time.<br class="Apple-interchange-newline">

Herb:
<div class="">I concluded that this was an OS X or Apple problem (my logic board was replaced in the past week or so, and this problem is probably related to that). Opening a tex source file from within TeXShop works fine. But if I simply click on the source
file while in finder, it tries to open a different application. First it was MS Communicator, which I then trashed. Then it was TeXworks, which at least is more relevant, but I don’t use it, so I trashed that. Now it is Excalibur. The computer is going
back to Apple tomorrow.

I just recently (last few days) updated my TeXShop to version 3.65 and the first time I tried to use it I am getting the following very strange behavior—it sounds like an OS X problem, but it only started after the TexShop change, so I am going here first.<br class="">
<br class="">
I have a TeX source file which I want to copy and modify. I duplicate it via command-D. The icon next to the copy turns from a tex source icon to a word document icon—the listing in finder still says it is a tex document, but when I try to open it I get a
message saying that I need to be signed in to Communicator to view a contact list, and I get a box to sign in to Communicator. For context, I have used word, but never communicator, in the past.<br class="">

I just checked, and it is not the copy that is the problem. If I try to open the original tex file I get the same error message.<br class="">

Any suggestions? <br class="">

not sure what you mean by `the listing in finder still says it is a tex document'. If you do a Get Info… (Cmd-I) in Finder for that file what is the Open With setting? If that's TeXShop double clicking the file should open it in TeXShop. Another thing that
might be helpful would be to run `mdls` on that file in Terminal; in Terminal type `mdls ` (notice the space) and then drag and drop the problematic file onto the Terminal window and hit Return. Let us know what it returns.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" class="">
