I'm new to video editing so explain answer for dummies!

Parental Controls with FaceTime app does not work properly on iPad Air
We have a problem about the FaceTime app and Parental Controls on our iPad Air.
Even after we disabled the FaceTime app by Parental Controls, our iPad Air(Wi-Fi model) tries to connect to the FaceTime server (init.ess.apple.com).
We see a lot of the same kind of packets going out to the Internet and our firewall drops them although we use our iPad Air only for internal services in our LAN.
Apple technical support said that iPad Air should not try to connect to the FaceTime server with the FaceTime app disabled by Parent Control.
Could you please let us know if you have any idea about this issue or have the same problem?
Thank you,
Skype continutes to crash with SIGSEGV error (OS X 10.9.5) (Skype 7.2.412)
I have been waiting for a new version of Skype to come out but I am getting impatient. Skype one day just stopped launching. It will launch with these two windows and then crash with a segmentation error.
I have a guess that some software must of updated and did something to a system plugin or library that is causing C++ to have a fit but I can't find any log to prove it. I have done a full uninstall of Skype including any files found in system or library directories but when I reinstall it some hidden cache, properties, or configuration file allows Skype to remember it crashed which leads me to believe that it is also possible that that hidden file is corrupted. These are the files I deleted:
- /Applications/Skype.app
- /Users/[USER]/Library/Application Support/Skype
- /Users/[USER]/Library/Application Support/CrashReporter/Skype_[CRASH ID].plist (All Crash Report Files)
- /Users/[USER]/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins/SkypeABDialer.bundle
This is software I installed with Homebrew:
bash ffmpeg lame xctool
berkeley-db grails readline xvid
faac groovy x264
I remember installing Open Broadcast Software around the time the problem arose.
And finally, the latest crash report
Logic Pro updates from 9.1.8
I have Logic Pro 9.1.8. Can I update or upgrade this to Logic Pro X?
If so, how, and is there any cost?
Deleted Files from my IPhone still shows up when I hook my phone to Itunes
I deleted Music and Video from my Iphone 5, 8.1.2; But whenever I hook it up to the PC it still shows the deleted files as ghost datas under "On my device", furthermore Itunes says that my device has 6.05gb free space but my Iphone says 8.00gb free space. What is wrong with this? Thank you for the help.

Little Snitch reports outgoing connections from Mach Kernel -- am I infected?
I monitor all my traffic using Little Snitch. Recently, I've noticed strange IP addresses making connections to the "mach_kernel" process. Most of these IP addresses seem to originate from other programs (for example, I might see a Google address connected to mach_kernel when I'm browsing Gmail via my browser).
Is my Mac infected? The main concern here is that I have a virus which is MitMing traffic of other programs on my box. How can I tell if this is the case?

Synology LDAP and OSX Network Homes
Is there anyone out there using a Synology DiskStation running Directory Server (their LDAP implementation) to provide authentication AND network homes for OSX? I've tried setting it up and have hit a roadblock with getting the OSX clients to automount the NFS export where the home folders reside on Synology. I would love to know if anyone out there is doing this and how they configured the clients to automount the homes.
Restarting syslog causes it to no longer listen on domain socket
Standard syslog setup on Mavericks.
1. Before stopping and starting syslog:
$ lsof | grep syslog
launchd 1 root 6u unix 0xec11da089f2493d9 0t0 /private//var/run/syslog
syslogd 16 root cwd DIR 1,4 1156 2 /
syslogd 16 root txt REG 1,4 130176 3240731 /usr/sbin/syslogd
syslogd 16 root txt REG 1,4 622896 3239781 /usr/lib/dyld ...
2. Then stop and start syslog:
$ launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.syslogd.plist; sleep 1; launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.syslogd.plist
3. Now, syslog no longer listens to /var/run/syslog:
$ lsof | grep syslog
syslogd 716 root cwd DIR 1,4 1156 2 /
syslogd 716 root txt REG 1,4 130176 3240731 /usr/sbin/syslogd
syslogd 716 root txt REG 1,4 622896 3239781 /usr/lib/dyld ...
4. Reboot machine, and syslog is back to listening on /var/run/syslog domain socket is back. Why would this happen?
Where are files transfered using CG Moobile?
I transfered files from my PC (Win-7) by downloading iTunes and then going to Apps, and file transfer - I seen only two apps available there. CG Mobile and Nook. I choose CG Mobile and tranfered 6GB of pictures and videos to the iPad. But I cannot find them now, or open them now. But I know they are there because the memory changed.
How can i open those pictures and videos in the regular viewer?
Quicktime file not emailing from mac to PC correctly?
Someone is trying to email me a Quicktime file from their Mac to my Windows PC. (This is audio for a presentation.) They swear that the file contains audio and video on their end, but when I get it, the file is only 14KB in size and plays as 25 seconds of blank screen and silent audio. The Properties in the QT player show that the file should be 67MB.
Does anyone know what the problem is here? If the file is too huge, I would expect that nothing would transfer - instead I'm getting this weird 14KB "audio.mov" file. He's tried it twice - I even sent the 14KB file back to him and he insists it plays fine.
I'm mystified - I don't want to press the person doing this for me too hard, because they're doing me a favor (an unpaid favor at that) and I would like this to be as easy as possible on them. But if anybody knows "oh, the problem is ______" and how to fix it, that would be great.
iPhone AppStore always asks for password when redeeming
Basically what the title says; when I'm redeeming a code in the AppStore, there's no option for me to authenticate via TouchID, it always asks me for my Apple ID password. Am I missing something?
It's not really a HUGE deal, just a little annoying. Also curious that Apple lets you use TouchID for PAYMENTS but not when redeeming codes.
How can I keep the same desktop arrangement on two different multi-monitor setups?
My machine is a late 2012 rMBP which happily powers two displays at home and two different displays at my office in what is essentially the same arrangement. My laptop is on the right with the two additional displays to the left. I consistently plug the same monitors into the same ports.
The problem that I always have is the desktops appear on different monitors depending on my location. Example:
At home, I open Google Chrome and put it in full screen mode on my leftmost display. I open iTerm and put it in full screen on my middle display. I open Mail and put it in full screen mode on my laptop display.
Now I disconnect the monitors and go to the office. I plug in my office monitors to the same ports in the same order, and Mail is on my leftmost display while the Chrome browser appears on my laptop monitor. What the heck? So I go to expose mode or whatever its called and switch them around. No big deal, right?
Well, in reality I have about 5x that many programs open at any given time and I always want them to appear on the same displays. I never want Chrome on the tiny laptop display and I never want Mail on the enormous leftmost display. After two years of dragging windows back and forth twice a day it has become the most infuriating thing in my life! (pretty good life, no doubt)
Is there any way to save the desktop arrangements so that they consistently display on the desired monitor? Ideally, any monitor plugged into the same display port would display a specific desktop.
Keynote presentation view
Today when I set up my Keynote presentation, the "presenter view" appeared on the audience screen and the audience view appeared on my MacBookPro. The MacBook is a brand new computer and the Keynote is ver. 6.5.2 (2119) I have used this same computer, Keynote and projector for the past 4 months and never had this problem. I tried disconnecting the computer from the projector and restarting Keynote. No difference. I disconnected the computer from the projector and restarted the computer with the projector connected. No difference. I looked in preferences but did not find anything helpful in the display settings. I'm obviously missing something. Has anyone had a similar experience?

Why does iTunes 12.1 keep deleting podcasts I've downloaded but not listened to?
I have had this happen many times in the past few months. I spend quite a bit of time downloading all the episodes of a podcast so I can listen to them in my own time. Then when I refresh my podcast list to download my daily podcasts all of a sudden it will refresh and all my downloaded podcasts will disappear! It's very frustrating. Is there a way to get back the episodes I've "lost" and how can I stop it from happening again?

Mac mini 2 internal drive no longer showing up in disk utility
I attempted to update to 10.10 and half my software didn't work right so I decided to attempt a downgrade.
Long story short...my 2 internal hard drives, SSD and 7200rpm disk, no longer show as separate drives on disk utility
It seems they might have been summed virtually into one drive? The language I see is "virtual whole disk"
In the disk utility list there is also a "disk2" with a picture of the world over the disk icon. I assume this is the virtual disk used to reinstall from the Internet?
Either way, how do I get my separate hard drives back so I can use the SSD for my boot drive?
Complete mess with iMessages and SMS messages and different devices.....help
I wonder if anyone on this amazing site can help. I have an iphone (have had for years). Recently it went automatically to 'blue' imessages as default. This caused problems as it requires me or the receiver to be in wifi range for messages to be delivered, so I disabled it on my phone. So now all my messages sent are GREEN sms messages via the mobile telephony system (i.e. normal). These are free to me as included in my monthly contract.
Now the challenge - I think that OTHERS' phones are defaulting to iMessage when sending to me, but obviously not arriving with me as I have disabled iMessages. Instead, it looks to them that the message has been sent to my phone - but the message then delivered to my iPad (which largely resides with my daughter now) as this has iMessage.
So the problem is this: how can I keep iMessage on my iPad (which could be useful sometimes) and NOT deregister my phone number with AppleID (as it may be useful somtimes when travelling to turn iMessagess back on) BUT make any attempt to send me a message to my telephone number go via SMS telephony rather than iMessage. The only solutions I can see would require them to turn off 'iMessage' default, but that is not do-able. At the moment, both sides (them, sending messages which look like they have been safely sent, and me, scratching my head about the lack of response to my SMS texts to some friends) are left in the dark. It's not even as if the sender realises it hasn't arrived - the message simply goes to my iPad instead.
As I see it, at the moment, Apple has behaved very badly indeed in making the old system incompatible with the new one they are trying to establish, and making it impossible to set a 'first try iMessage then do SMS if there is a contract and the message has not gone to the phone number via Wifi'condition. They are essentially making life difficult for people to move from iPhones, but in this case I even have an iPhone and simply want others to be able to text me in a way which gets through. Any ideas? Is anyone else affected by this?
iPhone 6 microphone and audio jack not working
I just got iPhone 6 last month and since yesterday afternoon I encountered a couple seconds where the phone is irresponsive and I had to restart to make it normal again. After that I couldn't make any call, either a normal phone call or from wifi, it said Call failed, or no sound. I tried everything: Skype, Facetime. There was one time I managed to make the call (after restarting) but the person could not hear my voice.
I opened Voice Memo to check if the microphone is working well but record button is disabled (greyed).
Headphone is practically not working. I plugged in a headset and the volume is still on ringer and the sound is still coming out from speaker.
I tried "reset all settings" and did a "restore" from iTunes but nothing seems to help.
Update since 13-01-2014:
The next day after restoring from iTunes, it was working well again, but then the next day I found out that the same things are happening again, freezing screen after plugging in earphone, microphone and earphone not functioning. This time resetting network settings won't help it.
I'm trying to rollback to iOS 8.0 to see if it will fix the problem. I really prefer to confirm if this is not a hardware issue before bringing to apple store.
Accidently deleted some small sized partitions when installing WIndows(Bootcamp). OSX Partition wont boot.
I tried to install Windows 8 into my Mac via Bootcamp. I booted into the Windows 8 Installer and had issues formatting the drive that I partitioned for the OS.
Like an idiot, I deleted all of the partitions on my hard drive, except my main OSX partition. I believe the partitions I deleted were 600MB, 3MB, 1GB(Not sure if they were this large). But im certain I deleted one that was 600MB.
After exiting out of the Windows installer, I booted up my Mac again only see the Windows partition as an option. When I go into recovery mode, I see the partition still there, but I cant really interact with it. Does anyone know what I need to do to make my OSX partition bootable again? I went into DU(Recovery Mode) and tried mounting through DU but nothing happens.
http://ift.tt/1u7v8ul - Image of my "diskutil list" output. The image shows my "diskutil list" output. My OSX partition is disk0s1. I am stuck and don’t want to lose my data/am trying to boot into my machine again. Help!
What does installing a "device enrollment challenge" do on an iPad?
I work for a large faceless corporation, and they're rolling out some new software for email. As part of the install, it's asking me to install a "Profile" which contains a "Device Enrollment Challenge".
My question is, should I be nervous about this? What privacy issues should I be concerned about, if any?
Install OS X 10.7 to 10-10 on MacBook Air MD232
I have MacBook Air MD232. As we need to test our software on all OS X from 10.7 to 10.10, we need to install them all. Is it possible to install them on my MBA? When I buy, this MBA has been installed with Yosemite. I tried to install any other OSs by using "restore" feature from Disk Utility. However, restoring process were successful and pressing alt/option during restart, I get only gray screen with a stop sign and nothing happen afterwards. Would you please tell me how?

iPhone 5s is creating "contacts" from multiple addressees of e-mails...why?
iPhone 5s is creating "contacts" from multiple addressees of e-mails...why? NEW company phone synched to receive company e-mails (outlook).

What is causing this, and how do I alter the setting? THANKS!!!

Mac Stuck on one volume even if it is set on mute after removing headphones
My Mac is currently stuck at one volume after removing my headphones. I restarted it and tried to put in my headphones again which was fine (even before putting headphones) but when I remove it, it will be stuck on one volume if I play it on the mac speakers. If I mute it theres this icon replacing the bar (something like the circle with a cross) then if I put my headphones in again, I tried increasing volume the icon is still there. Are my headphones broken?
How do I mount a network drive based on my IP address or wifi network?
When I am at work, I mount a number of shared drives to use during the day. At home, I mount drives on my home network for home use. Is there a way that I can automatically mount the correct drives based on the network I am connected to? Ideally I would do this based on IP address, as I connect via Ethernet cable at work.
Is it necessary to use AppleScript or a shell script? I have tools like Hazel and Keyboard Maestro at my disposal.
Thank you.
How can I copy my music from iPod Nano (model A1446) to iPhone 5s?
I am trying to somehow extract the music from my iPod and also transfer all the playlists the way I arranged them on the iPod before. The iPod is a 7th generation iPod Nano and I am using iTunes 12 on Windows.
It appears that the only option iTunes offers me that is obvious would be to wipe my iPod and then start synchronizing data from the PC to the iPod. This appears to be due to setting it to manually manage music and videos (see below). Effectively this would remove the data from the iPod and thus not leaving anything to copy to the iPhone.
Now I do know that I could transfer the files from iPod to PC in my file manager (iPod_Control). If I then import those files with their meaningless naming scheme iTunes will likely pick up all the song metadata. However, this won't aid me in any way in transferring the playlists over to the new device.
So how could I accomplish this without first wiping the iPod, then building an iTunes library from scratch, then transferring everything to both devices again?
Apple's AC Cords for MagSafe (1+2) always the same?
I am getting a customised MacBook Pro Retina and it will have a AC Cord for Britain, but I need one for EU/Germany.
So can I easily switch the AC Cord of my MagSafe 2 to a German one? Are these Cords somehow patented or normed, so I can use every cord on any adapter?
Also: Where am I able to buy a Apple-original AC Cord (not the whole adapter)?

Mac restarting (kernel panic) after I disconnect a 3g USB modem
Late 2008 Macbook aluminium, OS X 10.10.1; I've got a 3g USB modem (Olivetti Olicard 300) which I use to connect to the web. As soon as I disconnect it from the USB connector my mac restarts (kernel panic).
I had some other 3g USB modems before this one, but I unistalled all their relative applications after I saw this problem with this one.
I've tried to call the customer service of the manufacturer and they told me they are going to release some updated of their drivers for Yosemite (they told me this like 5 months ago and they haven't released anything yet).
Strange thing is that my sister has a macbook pro (10.10.1) and she doesn't face my problem with the same USB modem.
What could I do to solve this? At the moment I'm forced to shutdown my mac before disconnecting the modem.
What's the best software to backup a bricked iPhone?
I am an unfortunate iPhone 6 user that would like to somehow save the data on his phone.
I am able to run the phone into "recovery mode" so perhaps not all hope is lost.
I came across a number of applications that say they're capable of doing this, but do you recommend any particular?
Perhaps there exists a free app that can do just this: backup/copy files and data from recovery mode iphone?
Battery Cycles being used very fast
I am using a 13-inch mid 2014 MacBook Pro with Retina Display. It is about 3 weeks old and already has clocked 13 charge cycles. Is this too high ? Also, I follow the practice of fully charging it and then using till about 40% before recharging without ever leaving it plugged in. Is this the best practice to follow or should I leave it plugged in while charging ?
Thanks
wireless automatically gets RTF_IFSCOPE default route
I have a routing problem when using a specific wireless AP from my mabcook pro.
When I connect to the AP (wireless is configured to use dhcp) I get a default route like this.
Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire
default 192.168.20.1 UGScI 0 0 en0
127 127.0.0.1 UCS 0 0 lo0
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 6 8360 lo0
169.254 link#4 UCS 0 0 en0
192.168.20 link#4 UCS 1 0 en0
192.168.20.1/32 link#4 UCS 1 0 en0
192.168.20.1 6c:40:aa:ad:22:fc UHLWIir 2 24 en0 735
192.168.20.113/32 link#4 UCS 0 0 en0
Note the 'I' flag at the default route (I=RTF_IFSCOPE)
This 'I' flags prevents that the default route is used.
$ ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
when I specify the interface it is used (as expected)
$ ping -b en0 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=0 ttl=58 time=9.374 ms
When I manually add a default route it all works (as expected)
$ sudo route add default 192.168.20.1
$ ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=0 ttl=58 time=8.154 ms
In that case I have two default routes, one with 'I' one without.
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire
default 192.168.20.1 UGSc 0 0 en0
default 192.168.20.1 UGScI 3 6 en0
Every time I reconnect to the AP the route is set incorrectly (with the 'I') flag.
problem: why did the automatically set default route get that 'I' flag ?
other machines using this AP have no problem. (mostly windows) When using other APs, my macbook pro connects just fine. It gets a default route without the 'I'
Question: what causes my macbook pro to set that 'I' flag ?
When not using DHCP (settings the IP/netmask/gateway) manually I also get a default route with the 'I' but only on this AP. (other APs never)

Possible to play chess without requiring Apple ID?
On Mountain Lion, when I launch Chess, it automatically launches Game Center as well, asking me to sign in with my Apple ID. Can I play chess without doing that?
(ignoring the Game Center screen is not really possible, as every other click in the Chess application launches a new instance of the 'Log in' dialog box. The only way out seems to be to 'Force Quit' each application)
Removing from dropdown when adding a shared calendar in outlook 2011
I am trying to view colleagues shared calendars on Office 2011 and found a link for it which solved my problem, however when I add a shared folder it also adds a from field on new message sending window. This option generally messes my other co-workers as if they have the right to send an email from the list.
In Windows Outlook edition adding a shared calender does not add From filed. Is there any way to remove the from dropdown menu from New Message window on Outlook 2011?

Suddently Apple Wired Keyboard not working

I can't remember my iTunes password and the email it's tied to is no longer active
I have been trying for months to log into my iTunes account on my iPad but my usual choices of passwords are not working. When choosing "forgot my password" it wants to email me at an old Verizon.net address that has been long disabled. Before arriving at the security questions it prompts me for my birthdate, of which it too says is invalid...I'm at a loss. I know my birthdate is correct but I am stuck. Is there any way to find out the password when the email it is tied to is long gone? I even attempted to start over by creating an entirely new Apple account but I can't reset my iPad without the old password. Aargh! Please help
OSX 10.10 Internet Sharing Password Not Correct
My Mac lost ethernet connection yesterday briefly whilst Internet Sharing was running.
I rebooted, by Internet Sharing wasn't accepting Connections at all.
I deleted the relevant files in:/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
Rebooted, this cleared out all the settings for Internet Sharing etc
As default, there is no Internet Sharing security set
I turn it back on, no security, but any wifi client that sees it with no security (iPhone doesn't show padlock) but the client asks for a password.
The way it asks for it on the iPhone differs to how it would if it knows the WIFI is password protected.
can someone tell me how to resolve this, there is no password set on the mac internet sharing but clients ask for it? Cheers,
Lee
