To get started, you can do one of the following:
-
If you would like to try to reinstall a file, but don't know what package it was installed from, you can use the “Search Receipts” feature.
-
If you would like to reinstall files that are part of your Mac OS X installation, click on the
button. If your copy of Mac OS X comes on a physical medium such as a DVD or USB stick, be sure to insert that before clicking on the
button (if your copy of Mac OS X comes on more than one disk, try Disk 1 first).
-
If you would like to inspect or extract files from another package or archive file, click on the “Open Package…” button to choose a .pkg, .zip, .tar, or .dmg file from which to extract files.
If you need help, please choose “Pacifist Help” from the Help menu.
