The ClickView Player for Mac OS X needs to persistently store configuration settings such as the server IP address.

In ClickView Player 1.6.2 these preferences are stored in a plain text file that is contained within the application file itself (in the Resources folder)

As of ClickView Player 1.6.3, the preferences are stored in a property list file(au.com.clickview.ClickViewPlayer.plist) located in either the System/Library/Preferences/ or /Users/[User name]/Library/Preferences/ folder

The ClickView Player for Mac will default to the preferences file that resides in the System preferences folder if it exists, if not then it will proceed to use the preference file in the User preferences folder

To prevent the user from changing the server ip address, administrators are advised to place a copy of the au.com.clickview.ClickViewPlayer.plist file into the System folder with the settings of their choice. There are three keys that you can set in the preferences file.

1. ServerIP : The server ip that the ClickView Player for Mac connects to upon startup.
2. TempDir : The temp folder that ClickView Player for Mac utilises
3. SchoolBagOption : This key stores the current School Bag Option settings (i.e Allow Local Computer etc)

All of these configuration settings can all be generated from within the ClickView Player for Mac, and should not be manually created. You should use the generated preferences file that resides in the User's preferences folder after the Player has been configured. Note that the ClickView Player for Mac can only write to the preference file that resides in the User preferences folder.
