It used to work but then suddenly it stopped. How to troubleshoot?
I just discovered that the 'look up in dictionary' option that you get in the contextual menu from control-clicking a marked word doesn't work either, nor does the search in good option. Great.
Thanks!

aaah, so simple yet so profound! I started 'organizing' my applications folder the other week and moved it into a folder together with other reference apps. Same thing with safari. I've moved everything back now and everything works perfectly.
I'm stupid. Thanks!

Lesson learned: Keep all apps in the Application where they belong, and sort aliases in folders instead. If you move them, software update breaks too. Stupid, yes?

yeah, you'd think with Spotlight that they would be able to find apps regardless of path.
Maybe for 10.4.2?

Mine is in the Apps folder but also doesn't work. Right clicking does work though.
