 I'm running this versions on macOS 10.14.6:
 ScummVM 2.6.0git5785-g2a36aef83c9 (May 14 2022 04:29:14)

 I had an issue with ScummVM not detecting the Mac version of Let's Explore
 the Farm with Buzzy.

 If I try a Mass Add and [attachment:"The Farm Disc.png" select the mounted
 disc], ScummVM only recognizes [attachment:Scan.png the various Mac &
 Windows demos as well as the Windows version of "Let's Explore the Farm
 with Buzzy"]. If I try to change the game file path in ScummVM
 Preferences, and point to the Mac files, [attachment:"Not Found.png"
 ScummVM can't find any files].

 Here are the files that the Mac version has:
  * The Farm
  * The Farm (0)
  * The Farm (1)
  * The Farm (2)
  * The Farm (4)
  * The Farm (9)

 [https://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=16585 I posted about it on the
 ScummVM forums]

 Praetorian had this to say:
 {{{
 Looking again at the "engines/scumm/detection_tables.h" file, the  entries
 for Airport and Jungle (full game) for Macintosh look like  this:
 { "airport", "The AirPort", kGenHEMac, UNK_LANG,
 Common::kPlatformMacintosh, 0 },
 ...
 { "jungle", "The Jungle", kGenHEMac, UNK_LANG, Common::kPlatformMacintosh,
 0 },

 while the entry for Farm looks like:
 { "farm", "farm", kGenHEMac, UNK_LANG, Common::kPlatformMacintosh, 0 },"
 }}}

 Their suggestion was to do this:
 {{{
 So the idea is to change the second "farm" value (which is the "pattern"
 field) to "The Farm" for this entry, rebuild scummvm and check what
 happens.
 }}}
