– What is Quicksilver?
Quicksilver, an alternative to Spotlight is a FREE launcher utility app for Mac OS X which gives you the ability to perform common, every-day tasks rapidly and without thought. You can visit Quicksilver's official website at: http://qsapp.com to know more about this stunning app.
I am using the very latest version of OSX Mountain Lion on my development machine and quickly noticed that the Start at Login function wasn’t working very well. After a bit of searching, I found the solution from Jon Stovell on the blacktree-quicksilver google group. It seems to affect OSX setups and in particular, machines using Solid State Drives (SSDs) [in my case, I am using SSD].
A fix to launch Quicksilver at Startup on Mac OSX:
(1) Turn off the Start at login option in Quicksilver’s preferences.
(2) Paste the text below into a new plain text file in TextEdit.
Label
QuicksilverStartAtLogin
ProgramArguments
/Applications/Quicksilver.app/Contents/MacOS/Quicksilver
RunAtLoad
;
(3) Save the file in ~/Library/LaunchAgents with a name like QuicksilverStartAtLogin.plist
(4) You're Done! Quicksilver will now automatically launch at startup from your next login.
* If you want Quicksilver to restart automatically if it ever crashes, you can replace RunAtLoad with KeepAlive at line 11.
Hope this helps!
