10.6.2 breaks Automator Services

Posted:
in macOS edited January 2014
I had some really great Automator Services setup that used to work great in 10.6.1 but now in 10.6.2 they don't even show up and when I go up top to the menu and click on Services it just says "Building..." in any app I'm in. I tried creating a new service but that didn't help either. (I believe this is a Snow Leopard bug and not an Automator one).



I contacted customer support, but they said they don't support Automator. They only check to see if it opens/runs.



Can you please help?

    After much work I found the solution to the problem.



    Go to:

    (Username)>Library>Preferences



    Delete the following:

    com.apple.Automator.plist

    com.apple.Automator.LSSharedFileList.plist



    After that, Services should be back and running. At least they are for me!
