I've been playing around with Pandora's Jar on OS X also, and I've figured out most of the things you have issues with. If you write up something for OSX, I'd be happy to see it posted to the Noob's Guide thread. Maybe we'll make it for other platforms aswell later, but right now there are other tasks to perform here that I deem more pressing. There's the Noob's Guide thread, but it's geared towards Windows. You should now be able to just start the file.

To make the script executable, run 'chmod +x pandora.sh'. A zipfile doesn't contain the file mode bits that UNIX platforms use, so it uses defaults that tend to not include the executable bit for security reasons. If this frightens you: The 1.5 JVM will run the resulting app just fine.
I'm reworking the source to bring that down to 1.4 (primarily because I'm not particularly familiar or interested in 1.5 just yet). I don't know what version Flash for Mac is at. Note that Flash version 9 and up won't store the file before playing it. Not that many 2MB+ files in your temp folder I would presume? On Linux the folder is /tmp or /tmp/plugtmp I don't know where OSX stores the file, but it should be easy to spot it. Has anybody written a, uh."For Noobs so Nubbish they can't even yet be described as a 'Noob'" guide to getting any method working in OSX?Įven just the cache folder location would be great. I thought that I might need 1.5.X, but I can't seem to find a download of it that doesn't require 10.4 (I'm running 10.3.9 still). I've tried showing invisible files and searching using the strings of digits referenced int he GET request URLs, but that doesn't seem to work.Īccording to several posters (and the Noobs guide), the script pandora.sh should be executible.but I can't even get that to work. I've also heard that they're named WebKitPlugInStream or that they're names are composed of a long string of digits. However, I thought that the files were cashed in a /tmp folder locally somewhere, but I can't seem to find any folder anywhere on my machine that's storing the cached files. The only way I've found to successfully rip a song is by accessing the URLs in the Activity monitor of Safari (URLs that, I think, are targets of the HTTP GET requests.?) Most of what I've read I'm either too dim to get anything from or it is no longer correct. I'm trying my very best, but I've been unable to figure out darn near anything about what Pandora's doing on OSX. (It didn't seem appropriate on the main disc.
