Adding Arduino Libraries in Mac OS X Lion - Arduino 1.0.1
I already had arduino-0022 on my MacBook Air and wanted to keep a separate application of Arduino 1. I have at least 3 years' worth of *.pde sketches that I don't want to convert right now.
I easily downloaded Release 1.0.1 of Arduino for Mac OS X, but didn't know how to add a Library. Here's what worked for me:
You can also do this from the Terminal.Starting at your Downloads folder (or wherever you have the new Library):
cp -R NewLibraryName /Applications/'Arduino 1.0.1.app'/Contents/Resources/Java/libraries/NewLibraryName
The -R is to recurse the new folder for all its contents.

- Download and copy the Library you wish to install
- Open the Application folder, then Command-Click on the new Arduino 1.0.1 Application. This will open a New Finder Window
- Select your Arduino 1.0.1 Application
- Click on the icon that says "Perform Tasks for Selected Item" when you hover over it
- Select Show Package Contents
- Double Click Contents; Double Click Resources; Double Click Java; Double Click Libraries
