Apple/sabnzbd newbie needs help

[thall74]

I recently switched over from PC to MAC and starting using sabnzbd. I had zero problems with v0.5 but when I did the upgrade to v0.6 I have been having problems with some nzbs from newzbin not downloading. They show up in my newzbin bookmarks and they even show up in sabnzbd under under confing and index sites but they never go to my queue and actually download. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling sabnzbd, tried deleting my bookmarks from newzbin and re selecting them, etc... but the bookmarks will not go away in sabnzbd and yes delete downloaded nzbs is checked. How do I clear out those old bookmarks? I have tried reading through the forums for an answer but have been unsuccessful, I am VERY new to MAC but I found in the forums where it says my sabnzbd files should be under library/application support and then the sabnzbd folder but there isn't a sabnzbd folder and I can't find it anywhere on my computer. Please help and remember I'm a MAC noob so plz give step by step instructions. Thanks!!!

Not sure what the problem is, but of course it's possible to remove the bookmarks on the newzbin site itself.

Tried clearing from Newzbin, they get removed from newzbin but remain in sabnzbd.

The list you see in SABnzbd is nothing more than a debug tool to show which
bookmarks have been processed.
Why do you want them to go?

Should you want to get rid of them anyway:
stop SABnzbd and remove the file ~/Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/admin/bookmarks.sab
(Hidden file, where ~ is your home folder).

The reason I'm trying to remove them, is because the ones there seem to be the nabs that show up in my newzbin bookmarks and show up there in my sabnzbd bookmarks but they never actually go to my queue and download so I am hoping by deleting them I can try to re-bookmark them and hopefully they will show up in my queue. I'm not sure where my home directory is, this is my first mac and I have only had it for a couple months. I have searched the entire computer trying to find any folders that have sabnzbd files and can't find a single one, only the one file in the application folder. If it is hidden, what would I select to see the hidden files?

Stop SABnzbd.
Open Programs->Utilities->Terminal.
Type:

Code: Select all

cd
rm "Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/admin/bookmarks.sab"

[thall74]

says no such file found

What does it say when you type this:

Code: Select all

cd
ls -l "Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/admin"
