Import Short Cuts into MAC
-
I'm trying to import my Preferences.dat file from windows into my mac. Anyone know how?

Hey
I've recently upgraded my iMac to Mavricks, and I can't find my shortcuts.plist in the above mentioned folder. In fact I cant find it anywhere. Any ideas. Thanks!

try setting a new shortcut, using 'Preferences'...
then have a look in your "User/Library" path to see if SU has made it...
some of the folders aren't made until requested or altered...

not that I'm aware of, they are stored in very different formats...

A couple of years ago I wrote the attached Ruby to import shortcuts to Mac from Windows. Read the comments at the top of the file for instructions on how to run it and how to recover if it borks. As the comments state, this is experimental code. It worked for me, but I can not guarantee that it will not cause any issues in your specific case.

you could add the.gsub(/[Pp]lugins/, "Extensions") if v15in there as well...
just a thought
