        Has anyone else successfully tried this? I just installed it, overwrote the exisitng files, and get the same error messages. Thank you,
        Michael

        When you call the CheckForUpdate dialog box (without updating), which version of LibFredo6 do you see ? LibFredo6 4.6c or LibFredo6 4.6d ?

            I get the same thing as TIG. After seeing it the first time, I removed the files and did a clean install.

                I copied the Plugins '.plugins' file into the Lib subfolder, overwriting the older one, and now it reports 4.6d in the checker dialog and all works fine !

                  So that .plugin file shouldn't have been outside the folder? This is the way the file looked when I opened it.

                  Easily moved, though.

                  Fixed.

                      it's a text file that just looks like a plugin on a mac, because of it's extension.

                        There is/was a 'Thumbs.db' in the subfolder within the zip BUT no issues with it's extraction. The .plugins inside the original zipped set is 4.6c NOT like the one in the zip [Plugins folder level] ?

                        As I said in the previous post, that leapfrogged this... copying the newer '4.6d' .plugins file into the subfolder makes it work fine 😕

                          if I place the ".plugin" file inside the "LibFredo" subfolder it works. So thanks for that,

                            Should the .plugins file be in the Plugins folder and/or in the LibFredo subfolder... ???
                            OR just in the subfolder ?

                            I don't see the Plugins located version in any of the earlier zip archives, except inside the subfolder...

                            The current version works fine IF the newer version .plugins file is only inside the subfolder, and NOT in the Plugins folder at all. ☀

                              TIG,

                              For whatever reason, the LibFredo6.plugin file was not in the right place. It should be in LIBFREDO6_Dir_46 subfolder. This is the file I modified, as it holds the address of the Sketchucation web site for checking updates.

                              I hopefully fixed that problem with LibFredo6 4.6e

                                NEW RELEASE: LibFredo6 v4.6e - 03 Oct 12

                                LibFredo6 4.6e is a minor release which essentially fixes a problem in the functionality "Check for Updates". The issues comes from the change in URL schema of the new SKetchucation web site.

                                See main post of this thread for Download.

                                Fredo

                                PS: there was a wrong manipulation with version 4.6d. One file (LibFredo6.plugin) was misplaced. So update with a clean version of LibFredo6 4.6e

                                  It's all fine now 😉

                                  Presumably the unused/older "LibFredo6.plugins" file that is now left behind in the Plugins folder can be removed from there without any issues...
                                  The similar/newer file within the subfolder is the one doing the work ...

                                    Yes the LibFredo6.plugin file in the main Plugins directory is useless (and harmless). It can be safely removed.

                                      Just updated to 4.6e and noticed I have 4-joint push pull files and 4- LibTraductor files are they needed ? or should I be deleting them before an update.

                                        How can you have 4 files? In which directories? Isn't it folders instead.

                                          It's probably my mistake as I was dealing wit some computer problems and reinstalling apps and some of the plugins that I use, are they just copies of the same file?

                                            Strange. Normally files should be overwritten.

                                            Anyway, I suggest you delete all files and folders that are indexed with a suffix and keep the ones with the valid names.
