Not working in Moneydance 2012 #3

Closed tonycpsu closed 12 years ago

tonycpsu commented 12 years ago

I know MD 2012 is pretty new and creates problems with app sandboxing, etc., but I just wanted to point out that when I try to use this extension in MD 2012 on my Mac (not the App Store version) the extension can't seem to see any folders. It gives me the "Please choose a base directory for Import List" dialog, but no folders are visible.

Any workarounds?

my-flow commented 12 years ago

There's no workaround for version 8 I know of. I will release an up-to-date version of the Import List extension within the next two weeks. This version will be fully compatible with Moneydance 2012. If you're interested in a working preview, please send me an email. My contact details can be found here: http://my-flow.github.com/importlist/

Stay tuned!

Version 9 of the Import List extension was released this morning. It is compatible with Moneydance 2012. If you're on a Mac, you have to make sure that you choose the current user's downloads directory as your base directory. This limitation is due to the sandboxing problem mentioned above.

tonycpsu, does this solve the issue?

tonycpsu commented 12 years ago

Looks good, though that limitation is a bummer -- I had my browser set up to download OFX files to a special directory to keep from polluting my normal Downloads directory.

It does seem to work if I create a sub-folder inside of Downloads, so I guess I'll just do that. Thanks for the quick fix!
