[AppleTV] HOW TO: Rename the "Launcher" Menu - Arr MiHardies - 2009-11-07 1) open a terminal window 2) type cd ~/Desktop 3) type Code: scp [email protected]:/Volumes/OSBoot/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/PlugIns/XBMCLauncher.frappliance/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings ./InfoPlist.strings 5) change the value of CFBundleName from "Launcher" to "XBMC", "Boxee", or whatever you want 6) save the file 7) go back to the terminal 8) type Code: scp ./InfoPlist.strings [email protected]:/Volumes/OSBoot/Users/frontrow/InfoPlist.strings 10) type "cd ~/" 11) type "sudo mv ./InfoPlist.strings /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/PlugIns/XBMCLauncher.frappliance/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings" Now to restart Finder so the changes will be reflected. 12) type "ps awx|grep [F]inder" you will see something like this. Code: 452 ?? S 5:23.18 /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder -psn_0_1835009 13) type "kill [pid]" replacing [pid] with the number from the above step. In this case, we would type "kill 452" 14) the Finder will quit and should relaunch. if it does not, type "open /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app" 15) Your menu is now renamed - ericjarvies - 2010-05-06 Arr MiHardies, thank you for the instructions. Everything works fine except the last step, at which point a 'Read-only file system' error is returned, and thus it does not write(cp/mv) the InfoPlist.strings file back into it's respective directory(from ~/). How does one make it so that file can be over-written, or deleted, so the edited one can be put into it's place? I've tried to chmod 775 the InfoPlist.strings file, and have tried to sudo mount -uw, but these options do not work. Any advise would of course be welcomed. Eric |
