Stickies

Hi all, I've noticed some consistency between my Stickes database being reset (to the default content) and when I run Apple's software updater --security updates in particular. This only appears to happen on one of my three OS X machines. I have checked perms and ownership on the DB file and the application and all appears consistent across systems. Interestingly...

it's just the stickies.app found in the applications folder :)

I think this is possible with AppleScript. The only problem is that Stickies isn't scriptable, yet (maybe in Jaguar?). You could, however, make stuff show up using TextEdit. it works something like this: tell "Application" of machine "machine IP address in the form "eppc://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"" -- script goes here end tell To set up a machine for remote AppleScript:

If you have OS X on that machine Do Not run Norton, unless it's the newest version. I've seen more than a few OS X computers sloshed by Norton. The latest version is 7.0. It's been rewritten to not slosh up your address book, mail, stickies, preferences... etc... Spread the word, 7.0 is the only one good for OSX, if you run a lesser version, and it doesn't scramble,...

And Toast... nope. I tried switching my memory sticks around and the icon remains the same. But my stickies database got deleted!!!! ...
