6/8/2023 0 Comments Functionflip errorI don’t know if the error was due to having two copies of FF in that folder - it may very well have been. Installing the original file made the program work properly - it now enables automatically after a restart. So I deleted the third, newest copy, and instead found the original FunctionFlip.prefPane in my Downloads folder. *However*, I then received a “FF is from an unidentified developer” message, preventing it from running at all. I deleted both, and installed a fresh, third copy that I downloaded today (FunctionFlip-3.prefPane). I navigated to /Library/PreferencePanes/ and saw that there were two FunctionFlips - the original, as well as a duplicate copy (FunctionFlip-2.prefPane). ![]() FF worked, but only if it was manually started/stopped after a restart - otherwise it wouldn’t function, even though it was in “started” mode. ![]() However, it wasn’t all fun and games, even after following the instructions. Kevin got me here, so I figured I’d leave a reply and say thanks! Many thanks to Miro for helping to get to this solution and please let me know in the comments if it works for you. Reboot and check that FunctionFlip is working □.Double-click on FunctionFlip.prefPane to re-install it.Move FunctionFlip.prefPane to somewhere like your Desktop.Navigate to Macintosh HD/Library/PreferencePanes/.Miro in the comments below was facing the same problem and his investigation led me to a solution: The above solution works great, however I found that after a reboot FunctionFilp was not working and required me to manually stop it and start it again from the preferences. ![]() Please note that I am assuming that you have installed FunctionFlip 2.2.2 already. The process is hard to explain but easy to do so I have created a video guide – it only takes 2 minutes. It complained that it needed me to “Enable access for assistive devices” in the system preferences. Unfortunately I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite and found that FunctionFlip no longer worked. Those of you who have read my previous post Google Music & Hype Machine keyboard controls on Mac OSX will know that I use a neat little tool called FunctionFlip so that I don’t have to hold the fn key to use the F1 through F12 keys.
