Some of the scripts we have here require the 24U scripting addition in order to work. If you decide you no longer want or need one of the scripts offered and want to get rid of the 24U OSAX, simply go to the following directory:

Home / Library / ScriptingAdditions

Find the 24U Appearance OSAX and move it to the trash. That’s it! You can also check the scripting additions folder in:

Macintosh HD / Library / ScriptingAdditions

If you find a copy of the OSAX in there, simply delete it. You may need an admin password to remove it. Couldn’t be simpler.

Have you ever wanted to email a web page to someone, only to realize you can’t do it unless you’re using Apple’s Mail? Drop ‘n Mail solves this by allowing you to email any open web page in Safari, as true HTML, with all the links and images included, using Entourage. This way the recipient will see the web page the way it should be. Drop ‘n Mail does NOT email the web page as an attachment. It sends the web page the way the designer made it.

Drop ‘n Mail also allows you to drop a file, folder, or multiple files on the script, enter your email address(s) or search for a contact, enter a subject (optionally keeps file’s name in there), a message, select your brand of compression/encoding, and then have Entourage compose a new mail window with all of the elements ready for sending now or later.

Support for Apple Mail has been dropped as the latest version of Mail now supports the emailing of web pages (with Safari). If you still need it, you can download version 3.2 on the Downloads page.

Please report any bugs you may find and don’t hesitate to contact us with any problems. Thanks.

I’m very pleased and excited to be able to finally announce publicly that development of Cache Out X has been taken over by Christopher Thompson of TriLateral Systems.

Christopher has already hit the ground running with a new public beta which fixes some outstanding Tiger and Leopard related issues in the software. In addition to that, he’s taken over full hosting of all released versions for OS X versions 10.2 through 10.4 and beyond. You can consider him the goto guy for all things Cache Out X now.

So with this official passing of the torch, I would like to extend a huge thanks to Christopher for being the guy to step in and keep the dev fire burning, to Xavier Moulia for taking the COX torch from me and adding the AppleScript Studio overlay, logo and much more, to Jim Mitchell for picking up where Xavier left off and making it even better and more user friendly, and to all the users who’ve been so supportive along the way.

Join me in wishing Christopher all the best as he breathes new life into Cache Out X.

Ok, maybe that’s a bit melodramatic. But based on user comments sent via email, Trash It! is a lifesaver for many people. What does it do exactly? Simply speaking, if you have items in the trash or anywhere on your computer that just refuse to be deleted, Trash It! takes care of the problem quickly and easily. Keep in mind we developed Trash It! for deleting stuck items, or deleting items using enhanced overwriting security measures (for sensitive items you don’t want recovered!). It should not be used as a trash can replacement as that would be like shooting a mouse with an elephant gun. Plus, we like mice. You can get it here.

Then you need to download Hack to the Past II. This simple AppleScript will swap the keyboard shortcuts for New Folder and New Finder Window as they were for decades in pre-OS X. If you decide later you want to go back, just run the script again. Works with all versions of OS X’s Finder, and it keeps these settings through OS X updates and upgrades. This is one of NoName’s more popular scripts. You can get it here

It turns out that the 24U Scripting Addition included with Mount Me! was version 3.01, not 3.1, which in turn would not except the embedded freeware license code. A new archive has been uploaded in Downloads, so if you are experiencing any problems, please and install this minor update. Any problems, let us know. Thanks.
