WhiteBox Packages Nightmare on Sonoma

my problem is I use WhiteBox Packages so infrequently I have to learn it all again, along with the productsign stuff whenever I use it

You need a script to handle that stuff. Write it once and (mostly) forget about it.

@d-healey yeah Im no macos fan/guru so Im not sure where to begin with that...

@Lindon Apart from scripts, you can prepare code templates ( .doc, Word files).

Signing, notarization, time stamp...etc all of the codes in a single file per product. You can do it all with a single template, step by step, without any confusion.

These templates are very useful and fast when there are many products or frequent updates are required.

Can't remember, it's been a while since I last looked at the video. But if it doesn't let me know and I'll send you my current script which does use it and handles the aax stuff too.

@Lindon Are you running the secret "beta"? (Serious question.)

[Dan Korneff]

@Lindon I had a bunch of silly permissions things recently with Packages. I had to check the "keep owner and group" box to fix it. It lists my computer as the owner and "staff" as group, which I though was strange, but it changes to the end user's account when they install.

@clevername27 of Packages? I was sent a Beta by the Dev a few weeks ago after this happened to me. Can PM if needed, but it may well be too old / release version now... 1.2.11

@Lindon …secret in that you have to just "know about it", since it's not listed anywhere on their website.
