Im a Windows user and yesterday I upgraded my iPhone to 2.2.1 and realised I must edit a .plist file. Some time ago, I used some online servers that converted the file but now all of them are down. Tried MANY programs but none worked!

Someone knows a working method in how to convert .plist to XML in Windows?

If someone on a mac has some spare time and would like to give me a hand, the file is this:

Thanks in advanced!

Thank you very much!

For those that are in windows I´ve found a solution: pledit.exe
Just open it and open your .plist file, works like a charm!

You can download it from:
http://www.badongo.com/es/file/11865636
http://www.mediafire.com/?m6iu4zwo4s3

Make shure you have iTunes or Safari installed.

TIP: If you are having a " CoreFoundation init failed " error, probably you are using a non-english windows version. To solve it:

1.- Create the directory: C:\Program Files\Common Files.
2.- Search in your language this same folder (eg. in spanish the folder it´s called C:\Archivos de Programa\Archivos Comunes). In this folder you´ll find an "Apple" Folder (C:\Archivos de Programa\Archivos Comunes\Apple).
3.- Copy this "Apple" folder and paste it in the directory created in step 1, so that it looks like this: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple

If it doesn´t work, restart your PC and it should work :D

Good luck!

this didn't help for me. i did it like this (german windows):

1) make a copy of the dir 'C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Apple\' in 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\'

2) create this dir: 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin\'

3) copy 'pledit.exe' to 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\' and start it from there
