Dropbox api redirecting/opening the wrong Mac OS app
Why is the Dropbox api redirecting to the wrong app? I created a desktop Mac OS app called "DBMacApp" for testing purposes. I worked through the tutorial at https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sd...

Dropbox StaffThe app authorization flow redirect is directed by the db-<APP_KEY> URL scheme registered in an app's plist file, in the CFBundleURLTypes section.
It sounds like you have the same app key registered in both DBMacApp and ezReceiptMac, causing the undesired redirect. Since DBMacApp was just for testing, the easiest solution is to just delete it. If you do want to keep it around for further testing, you should update it to put in a different app key instead.
OK, I deleted the <APP_KEY> from the plist of DBMacApp then in addition trashed it for good measure.
Unfortunately ezReceiptMac is still prompting to open the old app... Do you want to allow this page to open “DBMacApp”?
Where DBMacApp is the old test app.
Not sure what I am missing?
