I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and Coda 2.0.4.

I want all my .js files to open with Coda (currently js files are assigned to Safari).

When I do a 'Get Info' and change the 'Open with' application I try to select Coda 2 but it immediately bounces back to Safari.

If I choose any other application, like Firefox, XCode, etc it takes it. It only seems to hate Coda 2.

Any idea what's the issue?

Have you tried rebuilding the Launch Services database by running /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -seed?

If that doesn't work, you could also try defaults write com.apple.LaunchServices LSHandlers -array-add '{LSHandlerContentType=com.netscape.javascript-source;LSHandlerRoleAll=com.panic.Coda;}'. Applying the changes requires restarting (logging out and back in isn't enough).

  • I edited the first command. The path changed in some version of OS X, but I copied the older one.
