Repeat steps 3 through 5 with the file postflight.txt. Change the first line from #!bin/sh to #!/bin/sh.Ħ. Control click on the file preflight.txt, and open with a text editor (I used TextWrangler, but TextEdit will also work).Ĥ. Control click on the installation package, choose Show Package Contents, and expand Contents and Resources.ģ.
Mount the installation disk image, and copy the Photo Viewer Install.pkg file to the Desktop or similar location.Ģ. I did some searching, and the cause/solution seemed pretty straightforward: the error comes from an incorrectly formed header statement in the preflight and postflight install shell scripts: the shell scripts should have begun with #!/bin/sh, but were instead prefaced with #!bin/sh.ġ.
When looking at the error in Console, I saw that it was an 'NSTask: Task create for path' error. I tried installing the version of Photo Viewer (1.03) described in the above thread, but I was not able to complete the install under Snow Leopard, as it kept failing.
#COBY DIGITAL PHOTO KEYCHAIN SOFTWARE DOWNLOAD MAC OS#
See for more background and workarounds for previous Mac OS releases.
Their Photo Viewer software is ostensibly available for both Mac and Windows, but their Mac software has been reported as being very buggy, and they don't seem to be maintaining it. They require that you use their Photo Viewer software to load photos onto these devices. Hopefully, someone in a similar situation will see this and it will save them an hour or two of work.īackground: Coby makes inexpensive digital photo keychains (e.g., Coby DP-151, DP-152, DP-161, etc.) and digital picture frames. This isn't a question, but rather a workaround to a problem I encountered while trying to install Coby's Photo Viewer software on my MacBook Pro running 10.6.2.
