I would like to think that I actually have some talent for design. So if you wan't some help with design. I would be happy to help out if I can.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
Hi guys,
I am quite new to this and cannot get around opening the Servify.jar file in order to be able to use ReSpot. I'm using Mac OSX 10.5.8 and have tried opening Servify.jar through both ways listed on the h3x.se instructions page, but I can't get it to work.
If I double click the jar file right off the downloads folder, it will say: "cannot be launched, check console for possible error message".
If I use Terminal and type "java -jar Servify username password localport", it will say: "Unable to access jarfile Servify"
Am I supposed to place the Servify.jar file in a specific folder?
If anyone could please shed some light I'd be very grateful....I'm going nutz here!

You seem to miss out the ".jar"
Please try;
1) java -jar Servify.jar username password localport
or
2) java -jar Servify.jar
(the second option will bring up the GUI)
Shouldnt have to set the classpath really.
try to specify the full path to the .jar maybe?
java -jar /path/to/Servify.jar
?
I hope you get it working. Cant help out much with OSX stuff.
Though i know others have got it working under OSX.
Try getting the latest java, if you didnt already have that installed
BTW, this is what Terminal shows when I prompt java -jar /path/to/Servify.jar

Servify/J is compiled with Java 1.6 so you'll need that version.
"java -version"
should tell you what's installed.
good luck!
not for spotify.
That was it! I had downloaded the latest version but hadn't checked off V1.5 from java preferences. I got the app running now but without proper functionality. I can find songs on ReSpot but can't load my playlists, nor can I get any songs I find through ReSpot to actually play on the Mac eventhough the log says:
"OK - Playing"
"-1"
When I click playlist: "playlists could not be loaded, probably spotify playlist servers are not responding"
Great!
First: a premium account is required (but i dont think this is the issue).
When you search for tracks, 'clicking' them will add them to your PlayQueue in the Playback view. You must go there and click the track to start playback. (not sure if this is the issue though).
However, when doing this, the connectivity view should say something like
"OK - Playing"
"1" (ie: a non negative number => 0, a bit confusing with the ok-playing , i know
)The spotify Playlist servers are unstable, if you Servify at some later point you may get the playlists downloaded (and they are then cached). But at first startup the spotify playlist servers need to be in a good condition, and unfortunately it is not always so. The reason why this is rarely an issue is because the client's will cache your playlists locally, so it's ever only noticed when you first install a client as there will be no cache.
Basically, retrying/restarting servify *Should* remedy the playlist issue. This is ofcourse not an ideal situation, but it's out of my control really.
i hope this helps, otherwise pls continue asking, it's helpful for me to know whats working / not working etc
