A few times I've been asked to share these so I've decided I will for the good of the people.
Over the months I've created a few notepads that usually solve certain errors or teach people how to do things on the website.
Please feel free to make use of these around the forums or in the chatbox; if and when I'm absent from the scene.
P.S. Even if I am there, feel free to use them ^^
Adding & Downloading Scripts
Complete guide to Downloading the Client and adding scripts here;
http://osbot.org/forum/topic/4443-pictureshow-to-download-the-client-and-add-scripts-both-local-sdnvideo/
If you want to add a local script, find one you like from; http://osbot.org/forum/forum/10-local-scripts/
And follow the tutorial on how to add them!
For scripts from the store or the free script repository, no download is required, once you click the 'add' button, they're instantaneously added to your account and available for usage once you have successfully logged into the client
Finding your scripts folder and adding local scripts
Where to find Scripts (local);
C: > Users > Your User > OSbot > Scripts.
Or
Or use the 'Start button' and search for OSbot, then double click the scripts folder.
The fix for when one cannot save an account to the client

Usually fixes the 'Loading Remote Scripts' error (Note: JDK doesn't necessarily do anything, but it may help)
Try downloading these versions of JRE & JDK;

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
If the problem still persists try deleting all your scripts and adding them one at a time until it loads.
If you still have problems, delete your OSbot folder and client and redownload
Awaiting User Input & Failed to log in
http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp <----- Should NOT be used currently, because OSbot is not compatible with Java 8.
Will usually fix either of these.
If it doesn't then a Super moderator or Administrator will have to manually fix the problem.
Other useful things

Deleting your OSbot folder can fix a lot of issues; but unless you backup your scripts, you'll lose them (Local)
OSbot is currently NOT compatible with Java 8, so updating to the newest Java will not suffice, members need this version; http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1880261.html In order to run the bot.
Deleting the 'local.dat' file under 'Data' in your 'OSbot' folder, will solve 'Failed to load client settings' and several log in issues as well as, not being able to save accounts.
NOTE: If you're going to use the links, make sure to right click them and select 'Copy Link Address' otherwise it will just copy the text, which will not work since the URL has been shortened.
I hope this helps! Especially those of who you like myself, answer the same questions and try to fix the same bugs multiple times a day
Yours Sincerely
