Re: [SoundDiver] Converting Adaptations to OS X

Success! Thank you all.

I couldn't get the adaptations to appear in the install list, so I  
moved them out of the Library folder to the desktop, then made "dummy"  
ones using the New Adaptation. I just set the Manufacturer IDs and  
named them exactly the same as the ones I moved, then saved them.

Quit SD, replaced the dummies with the real ones, Restart and voila!.  
On one I had to delete it entirely, but then the name was in the  
install list.

Awesome.
