Absolute path to an application executable in OS X I know where to find the executable file path to an app in Windows. For instance, Adobe Reader:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe

I need to give the path in a OS X because Excel is asking me for the path. 
What should I write?
Will Preview work?
The absolute path to the Adobe Reader executable is:

/Applications/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeReader


Note the space in Adobe Reader and spaces either need to be escaped with a backslash.

/Applications/Adobe\ Reader.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeReader


Or quote the fully qualified pathname, but not both.

"/Applications/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeReader"


You'll have to test to see which form Excel will work with.

You can view the contents of a application bundle by a ctrl-click (right-click) on the application and select "Show Package Contents", then navigate to the Contents &gt; MacOS folder where the applications executable is.

For Preview its: /Applications/Preview.app/Contents/MacOS/Preview
