For hard core geeks out there, nothing is more important than peripherals. Having a solid setup makes life a lot easier when your livelihood is working on the computer day in and day out.

Keyboard = link

Mouse = link

Recently we have been testing the new and (Not Really) improved Mac operating system. I use my mouse to bounce in between virtual desktops by assigning several of my mouse buttons to the applications ‘Spaces.app’ and ‘Expose.app’. After upgrading to 10.6 (Snow Leopard) those features ended up broken. The reason is that Snow Leopard moved the applications ‘Spaces.app’ and ‘Expose.app’ into the ‘Utilities’ directory. The good news is that the fix is simple, all you have to to is create a couple of Symbolic links.

This is assuming you have the Logitech software installed for the mac.

1) Open the application ‘Terminal’

2) From the command line, run the following commands. You may be prompted for your password.


sudo ln -s /Applications/Utilities/Spaces.app /Applications/Spaces.app



sudo ln -s /Applications/Utilities/Expose.app /Applications/Expose.app


And that should do it!

You may need to reassign your mouse buttons again in;
‘System Preferences’->’Logitech Control Center’
