    copied!<p>I've been trying to get NSServices working for my application recently with no success. I have set it up according to the documentation but it does not appear in the services menu ( however it does appear in the keyboard shortcuts section of the System Preferences as a service menu item) Anyway I set the service in my app controller like this:</p> <pre><code>[NSApp setServicesProvider:self]; </code></pre> <p>The method exposed is:</p> <pre><code>- (void) addDownloadService:(NSPasteboard *)pboard userData:(NSString *)userData error:(NSString **)error </code></pre> <p>My Info.plist then looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;key&gt;NSServices&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;NSReturnTypes&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;key&gt;NSKeyEquivalent&lt;/key&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;English&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;S&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;Key equivalent (with command and shift)&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;S&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;NSSendTypes&lt;/key&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;string&gt;NSStringPboardType&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string&gt;NSURLPboardType&lt;/string&gt; &lt;string&gt;NSRTFPboardType&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;key&gt;NSPortName&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;MyApp&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;NSMessage&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;addDownloadService&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;NSMenuItem&lt;/key&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;English&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;MyNewService&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;default&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt; MyNewService &lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;/array&gt; </code></pre> <p>I tried running the debug command with textedit like so: /Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit -NSDebugServices com.companyname.MyApp</p> <p>which outputs the following: MyNewService (com.companyname.MyApp) is disabled in the services menu and disabled in the context menu, by the standard Services policy.</p> <p>Anyone any ideas why it might not be working?</p> <p>Thanks Colin</p>
