I uploaded the past months several iOS apps made with Cordova and when they were published all shown in its app details that the languages are English and German but I want to display Spanish because the apps are oriented to the spanish market.
An image as example: 
Is there a way to change this? Via Xcode or iTunes Connect...
Any help would be appreciated.
Where does OS X store license/registration keys for apps? Is there any way these can be moved over to a new Mac?
[Context: I did a clean install upgrade from OS X Mavericks to Yosemite. I would like to transfer the license keys of specific apps from my previous installation (which I was backed up using a disk cloner) to the new one.]
Since updating to iOS 8.1.2 I can't see old photos on messages just new photos
I've recently been called in to deal with the IT infrastructure of a small non-profit organisation that is going through a restructure that involves purging all its staff and employing new ones from scratch. They have 6+ Mac Minis, an iMac, a MacBook, a MacBook Pro and a Mac server (not a Mac Pro, a silver desktop box).
One of the things I would like to do is take backups of hard drive content, then re-image them with 10.8 and reinstall Microsoft Office 2011.
My research seems to indicate that I need to press ⌘ + R at the BIOS screen, but then other places indicate this this will keep files.
With 10+ (I'm still finding computers in cupboards, the old staff did not keep an asset register) computers, downloading the OS 10+ times seems slow and useless.
I have also seen indications that this will only download the version that came as OEM, which means I would need to update them as well.
How can I re-image all these Macs in a sane way? Coming from a Linux background, all this seems overly complicated. Bonus points if someone can point me to some free software that will help me administer all of these (I watched Google's talk on the matter, but there didn't seem to be anything out of the box).
The goal is to track when kexts are installed and determine whence kexts came. For instance TRIM is disabled for 3rd party drives in OS X Yosemite. To use a utility like Trim Enabler one must disable kext signing globally. WRT to http://ift.tt/1vUIizO – specifically:
“It is important to note that the kext-signing setting is global, if you disable it you should be careful to only install system drivers from sources that you trust.”
It occurs this would be a manageable security issue if one can track kext installed when kext signing is turned off. However, 1/ I don’t know how to discern whether/when kexts are being installed, or 2/ who wrote the kexts already in /System/Library/Extensions/ from before, or 3/ if I miss an alert, how to determine after the fact.
1/ Is there some way to get an alert, warning when a kext is being installed? 2/ Is there some way to determine which program installed the kexts already there?
I tried to install windows 7 ultimate on my mac pro retina late 2013 model and I cannot use the internet easily. So, I downloaded the windows supported software manually and copy to the flash drive. And then, I stated the bootcamp. Everything is fine and I successfully installed windows 7 but I want to install drivers for windows; such as graphics, camera, network card and so on. The problem is it doesn't recognize the usb. I can use keyboard and touchpad but I cannot use any usb devices. Thanks.
I'm messing around in Xcode 6, trying to develop a Single-Paged Application for a class. I know VERY little code, and whenever I try to re-adjust the Auto Formatting in Xcode, it doesn't appear to work. The app gets cut off and only displays a fraction of what is on the storyboard (My guess is it has to do with the iP6/iP6+ resolutions). I'm coding in Swift for iOS 8.1. Thanks for your help!
Here's the problem:
I have tried:
I have not yet tried logging out or rebooting my computer, I've got tons of project stuff open and I'd prefer not to have to do that. Besides that, this is a childish problem that I shouldn't have to lose to.
How do I find this pesky little dialog? Where is it at? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Are there any mac professional programs where you can use them for free given you provide the company ( that is responsible for the program ) with detailed usage data ( just pertaining to the program ) for a month or a year ,say?
Consider the following commands
# launchctl stop
Usage: launchctl stop <service-name>
# launchctl stop com.apple.SomeService
# launchctl disable com.apple.SomeService
Usage: launchctl disable <service-target>
What is the difference between a service-target and a service-name? How can I learn a service-target of a service from it's service-name?
I want to buy a "new" MacBook to replace my white MacBook 13" (Mid 2007), which makes me mad especially because of its limited RAM (only 3 GB possible).
I want to buy a MacBook Pro 13" and I'm not sure if it is worth taking a really new model (13" or 13" retina) or maybe buying a used one which might be much cheaper.
I saw a MacBook MC700LL/A MacBook Pro 13" Early 2011" 2.3 GHz (8 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD built-in later) and I wonder how much it is different from the current "normal" 13" MacBook Pro which seems to be nearly unchanged since 2012.
I can compare the technical specs, but I am not sure
I'm currently using my MacBook mainly for
In the future, I'd also like to do (private) graphics and video editing and "multimedia stuff".
new MacBook is really new, has warranty and a new battery
(the used one is already nearly 4 years old)
the technical specs (see screenshot below) seem to be very similar to each other, differences are mainly CPU speed, USB and Bluetooth standards

I can see people access into my Wifi by going into AirportUtility Here is a list of people that are connected to Wifi at the moment.
There're 2 of them in there that I'm not sure - how they get in there ?
I've been playing around with the AirPort Utility, and all I can do is restrict the time access to a certain MAC address.
I also came across an app called Little Snitch, but that not exactly what I want.
Is there any Mac App that let me block/allow a certain IP address ?
Can anyone tells me how to view my text messages on iCloud? I know that iCloud will back up my messages on my iPhone 5S, and I am very curious about checking the iCloud messages. Is there any solution?
Thanks in advance.
I have a 13" MacBook Pro Retina - bought 9 months ago but I guess it's a 2013 model - 500gb hard drive.
As I constantly get "your start up disk is almost full or full", and deleting files all the time, I delved a bit deeper to find doubled up files etc.
I access my iPhoto Library - that was 187 gb. & went into Preview etc., where there were hundreds of files. I removed as many as I could, then removed the remaining folders & files in iPhoto.
When I emptied trash, it said approx. 215,000 files would be deleted. Seemed excessive but I did it anyway.
So, having done that, my Hard Drive capacity is now showing a 250 gb capacity - with only 5.1 gb free. It seems I've lost 250 gb - is there a fix??

Is there any way to disable the delay for text dragging in OS X?
There is a small delay between selecting and dragging text, if you start dragging the text right after you selected it - it will instead re-select the text which can be annoying. Some apps don't have this delay (for example Sublime Text 2/3 where you can drag the text immediately after selecting it) but in most apps you would have to click the left mouse button and hold it for a bit before you can drag the selected text.
Okay, relative newbie here, but I have searched all the answers and tried most of the suggestions and cannot find a way to automate using Applescript or Javascript within Applescript to click a button on a specific website. I can't provide the website because it is part of a protected medical record software, but as far as I can tell the button is encoded as follows:
<h3>Add new documents for this patient
<!-- The fileinput-button span is used to style the file input field as button -->
<span class="btn fileinput-button" style="float: right !important;">
<i class="icon-plus"></i>
<span>Add Files</span>
<input type="file" name="files[]" multiple="">
</span>
</h3>
I have tried most of the Javascript (and Applescript) solutions. I have even tried the Fake app which seems to work for every other button except this one. I have searched in vain for a button id and the above code seems to be all that refers to the button. The function of the button is to bring up a Chooser window import image files.
Using tab to get to the button doesn't work because the number of tabs varies with individual patients (dynamic website ?).
I apologize in advance if this is trivial, but it is literally the last step in a long series of steps that would save me a lot of time. I figured out everything else mainly with the help on this board.
Thanks to all of you.

I have a Macbook Pro Retina mid 2014 running OSX Yosemite (10.10.1). I have connected an external 4k monitor (Samsung U28D590D), but I'm struggling to set the correct resolution. When I open "display" I don't get the same scaling-options on the 4k monitor as I do on the mac-display.
Here is what I see on my mac retina display: 
And this is what I see on my Samsung 4k monitor: 
As you can see, it's not showing the scaling options on the 4k monitor (Larger Text, More Space, etc...)
When I use 1920x1080 the icons and text is very crisp (hidpi), but everything is to large. The 3840x2160 resolutions is pretty crisp, but everything is way to small. The 3200x1800 (low resolution) is not crisp at all.
What I want is to use the "More Space" option as I do on my mac display.
Are there any way to achieve this? The display is connected through displayport.
I am having a problem "Finder isn't responding" on my mac pro retina 10.10.1. All my files on my desktop are gone and the rainbow ball is spinning forever.

If I turn autocorrect off for a short amount of time, will it forget the corrections it knows? on an iPod touch 5th generation, it will often mess with audio, and I would like to turn it on and off, but I am worried it will get rid of certain phrases that it autocorrects because of me using them so much.
Recently, I noticed that on the files on my external hard drive are not shown in Finder. All folders can still be navigated, but the files are not visible. When I check the contents of these folders in terminal, I can see the files are still on those locations and can also be opened with VLC for example.
Does anybody know what the issue could be? I only found one similar question, where they suggested that the com.apple.IconServices was causing the problem, however the proposed solution did not help in my case.
I am working on OSX 10.8.5.
Is there an LDAP command command that:
on Yosemite OS X Server?
This happens when a User is created with an email address on a virtual domain rather than the server’s domain.
Even when the user is subsequently given an email address on the server’s domain, the List server will not send the intended recipient an email message.
For example: take two users:
iainadmin@misfits-server.net was only given an email address on misfits-server.net some time after he was given the initial webmaster@misfitstheatre.com
misfitstheatre.com is a virtual domain served by leo.misfits-server.net
It may be quite reasonable to limit Group email lists to users with local domain names except there is no mandating of such a requirement by the Server App in either Mavericks or Yosemite.
In Mavericks you had to overtype the email address that Server App suggested (additional email addresses could be added in the advanced user options).
In Yosemite an administrator adding the new User can just remove any email address from the comprehensive drop-down list of suggested username X (virtual) domain name combinations - a nice feature.
Yes, it’s a nice feature if its implemented in some way to ensure that the [username X Server domain name] was also allocated as a minimum requirement. In other words: A new user can have any (virtual) email address she wants so long as she always have a server-local email address too. Either that or change the assumption of List Server that it will behave as a traditional MailMan serving users on one machine only.
Can we use LDAP to remedy this after the act -- or do we need to re-add the user ... a problem if they've been using their email for any length of time already.
Presumably List Server is using an LDAP search that does not look hard enough for a User’s email address with alocal domain where such is not the User’d primary email address (I assume that LDAP has such a concept of primary and other email addresses and that Server is not just relying upon postfix/virtual_users or whatever?
Yosemite Server: when creating a new User: remove the suggested email whose domain is that of the Server itself. (i.e. not a virtual domain). Leave other suggested email addresses or type in your own. Give that User an email address on the Server's domain later if you like - it doesn't resolve the issue.
Server App should either insist that the "local" address (the one ending with the Server's domain) can not be deleted OR List Server creates a local alias (not recommended)
email messages sent to the Group to which that User belongs will not reach that User

I don't know if it is only my issue. I have a 2011 iMac i5 with 2x2GB RAM modules. Recently I bought 2x8GB RAM modules. If I add the 2x8GB to the default 4GB RAM, the computer doesn't start. I hear only the sound of DVD slot but the screen remains blank. If I remove the 2x2GB ram modules and I use only the 2x8GB RAM modules, everything is fine and the iMac shows correctly the 16GB. I have also tried to change the order, putting the 8GB modules as first, but same problem.
If I put 2x2GB with the 2x8GB together, iMac doesn't turn on.

I am struggling to repair a hard disk with Invalid Node / Invalid Record Count errors.
This is the hard disk in question:
I have tried with fsck_hfs / Disk Utility:
And with DiskWarrior:
With DiskWarrior I cannot Replace, or Preview the changes as the buttons are greyed out.
There is a single partition on the hard disk. I cannot mount or repair it. Is there any way of me repairing this disk or recovering the files?
When I unpack a zip archive (with standard 'archive utility') that was created under windows, cyrillic characters in filenames become some gibberish.
Just the filenames are the problem, actual contents of files is ok.
How to fix this?
(Yosemite, if that's important. In general, I have a lot of files with cyrillic filenames — and they are displayed just fine (including on flash drives from windows users etc).)
Upd. Looks like the source of the problem (many modern zip unarchivers assume that filenames are in unicode, but that's not always the case) and a possible workaround (convmv) is described e.g. at http://ift.tt/1DyIGVj
I have a GoPro 4 which ends up creating very large high quality videos, when connected through USB the Gopro importer app automatically copies the files to a subfolder named by todays date in /users/apple/Pictures/GoPro . Once the files are copied from the GoPro to the /Pictures/GoPro/DATE_Subfolder they are deleted from the GoPro automatically.
These files fill up my macbook hard drive fast so i have brought a external SSD to house all my video files as well as Final Cut Pro X.
What I would like is a script which auto runs on connection of the external SSD, to move the contents of /Pictures/GoPro to /Volumes/Ext_SSD/GoPro then delete the original files from /Pictures/GoPro
Is this possible? I have had a mess around with Automator and can get files to move then delete when the SSD is already connected, but if files are put in the folder when the SSD is disconnected it will not be moved over when the SSD is finally connected again.
I'm a 4S holdout but would like to upgrade the camera (particularly the sensor). Is this possible to do? Is there an improved part that I can order and do the replacement myself?
Is it possible to charge a different price for the two types?
I am building an automator script to do automatic backups to a network drive via rsync. The shell script works perfectly fine in terminal and completes and everything, but when i run it from automator, it just hangs at that steps and never proceeds, e.g. the process keeps running in the background and the automator workflow never goes to the next step.
I found others with similar problems on other forums, but no answer to how to fix it. Should i add some kind of exit command to the shell script?
My sister used to be a mac user and recently switched to a PC. She has her mac stuff backed up on two hard drives, one is formatted as a time machine. We've transferred all her important files to the other one that is not a time machine, so the time machine one is empty. She wants to use the time machine one as a backup drive for her PC but I"m not sure how to get it to reformat... help?
I have a 2007 iMac and an Epson 730HD projector. I want to dedicate this iMac to playing media on the projector but I'm having problems with extending my display.
I'm using a Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter and connecting to the projector using an HDMI cable. The computer is detecting the projector, but the projector is saying there's no signal. I've tried playing with all of the resolution settings–thinking that maybe the projector just didn't like the resolution that the computer was sending–as I've had this problem before with other displays and setting the resolution to "Best for display" usually did the trick. The projector has a native resolution of 1280 x 720, I've tried every scaled resolution while extending the display and while mirroring. No luck.
My MiniDVI to VGA adapter works, so this appears to be only an HD problem.
Is there anything I haven't tried? Or is my iMac just too old for this projector?

I have a question regarding the Facebook Messenger App regarding the multiple login on different devices and some kind of report of that.
So here's what happened (I'll make it short): I have an iPhone and an Android tablet, but I lent the tablet to one of my friends for 2 weeks. Now I am pretty sure that he read all my incoming messages because on my iPhone they were already shown as "Read by me" when I opened the Messenger app and these are the only two devices where I check my messages.
I asked him, but of course he said that he didn't read them.
Now I would like to know if there is any chance that I can see when I used the app to read messages and especially where (so that I can exclude hacking), so basically some kind of report for every read message or at least a usage report with data about my account.
Thanks for your help in advance!
I've got OS X 10.10 Server installation (mac mini). I have couple users and one of the users inherited uid 500. uid 500 considered service uid in OS X and is not being shown in Server application, so I can't add user to the groups easy via GUI. Since I have huge park of linux servers, where uid 500 is user-assignable, it is easier to look for workaround for OS X, rather change uid on all servers.
Is it possible to tell OS X or Server application, that first local user is 500 and last service uid is 499?
Hello I have an Iphone 5 GSM it was jailbroken, i tried to do a manual update with the phone itself. Since then the devise is stuck on the apple logo and the loading bar is not moving.

Since I upgraded to Yosemite on January 3rd, my Apple mail app is misbehaving. When I get new messages from gmail, they show up in the Unread and Today mail folders but not in the overall Inbox folder. After they are read, they disappear from Unread (of course) and are lost in the ether. If I search mail for a specific message, it finds it and indicates its either in an Important folder or simply in the inbox. Otherwise the message doesn't show up in Mail at all. Also the mail remains on the gmail server when I access it directly on the web.
I've tried to synchronize the mail accounts but nothing changes.
I also turned on iCloud and iDrive at the same time.

I have an old 2008 13" Macbook4,1 model (not pro) running Snow Leopard with 4GB of RAM and 160GB of HDD. It is adequate for my needs at the moment but the OS is no longer being supported by Apple (NTP bug for example).
Thinking about the future, I am considering wiping OSX and dedicating the entire disk to Windows 7 or Linux. I've found here that Windows 7 runs well on it and Linux seemed to be ok on it when I used a recent LiveCD to test it.
So, my question is, are there any issues with removing OSX from the system completely? Will it break anything? Is it needed for anything?
EDIT: Upgrade to Lion is out too, according to wikipedia support just run out - Oct '14.
EDIT2: Apparently OSX is needed for firmware updates. But since this is a 2008 macbook, it is extremely unlikely they will release new firmware for it.
Previous OS X versions allowed one to select the startup disk using Cmd-Shift-Up when on the Desktop, or "from" any Finder window. In 10.9.4 this works only from the Desktop. When a Finder window is active, the menu item does appear when holding down Shift, but is greyed out. Any ideas? I can make a workaround using Keyboard Maestro or the likes, but..

As an iOS developer, I am extremely curious about this case: Battery usage on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1) shows that the main reason of battery draining on my phone are Facebook and Twitter, both have a label "Background activity" below their names.
I used to think, that this label is shown when the app does background app refresh, but that option is switched off on my phone. There is one other way to have the app run in the background: background location updates. Since neither of these two apps have this authorized at me, this can't be the reason. (And GPS icon was not shown either.)
So my question is: How is it possible to have Facebook and Twitter app running code in the background without background app refresh and location permission?
I bought a third party keyboard to use with my MBA 11in. It is an Anker keyboard.
When I am continually using it, it is fine. The letters appear on the screen as fast as I type. However if I wait about 5 - 10 seconds after I stop typing, then start typing again, there is a period of about 3 - 5 more seconds where nothing will appear. After that time, anything inputted from that point on appears in good time (as fast as I can type). It isn't disconnecting from OS X, it just has this sort of input lag.
Does anyone know a fix for this?
It isn't a huge issue. It's just annoying to have to have that period of time where nothing happens.
I'm using the Calendar application on Mac OS X 10.10.1 "Yosemite". The calendar is laden with many years of history, and I've just imported some data from a phone as well. It turns out that some of the phone entries were new, but some were duplicates of entries already in Calendar.
Note that "duplicate" has some complicated cases. For instance, there are weekly repeating events where the phone's data correcting deleted some instances of the meeting (we didn't meet over the New Year holiday), while the original Calendar data incorrectly shows those instances occurring. Such pairs are "duplicate", even though they aren't identical.
How can I automate the process of identifying which calendar entries are duplicates, choose which one to keep, and delete the other? Is there AppleScript magic or something?
I am running Mac OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite, with personal data migrated from Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.5. I had hundreds of what 10.6's iCal application called "To-Do" items, in various "categories".
The Reminders application in Yosemite has what it calls "Lists". The left sidebar has entries:
Scheduled
On My Mac
Personal
Business
Unfiled
Untitled t
These entries appear related to the sidebar entries in the Yosemite Calendar application. There is "On My Mac", followed by a long list of entries that include the above four:
On My Mac
Personal
Business
Unfiled
Untitled t
Calendar Secondary
Spouse
Entertainment
To-Do current
Work t
Phone t
To-Do waiting
Tickler t
Waiting for t
The entries in Calendar are exactly the category hierarchy I used in Mac OS X 10.6's iCal application, which of course handled both events (now Calendar's job) and to-dos (now Reminder's job).
All my hundreds of to-do items are in the categories suffixed with " t" (for task). Only one of these categories ("Lists") shows up in Reminders. However, if I click on the entry "Scheduled" in the Reminders sidebar, I see all my to-do items, with their category names (like "Tickler t").
So, Reminders in Yosemite can see my to-do items migrated forward from 10.6 iCal, but doesn't display the categories ("Lists") themselves.
I am not using iCloud, and I don't want to use iCloud. I am syncing with an Android phone, through a non-Apple solution, and there is no iPhone connected.
How can I make my existing categories ("Lists") display in the sidebar of the Reminders application? How can I make the categories ("Lists") which are for events, rather than to-do items, not appear in the Reminders sidebar? Is there a plist or settings dialog which I can manipulate to control the contents of this sidebar?
As seen in this screenshot, every time I open iTerm (new session), it shows a "1". I would like to know how I could fix this .. I removed the .zshrc and still get this. if I open "Terminal", this does not happen. Happens only on iTerm.
I have macbook air with Yosemite OS X that connected with USB Lan cable. When I set up active directory and click bind, it produces "Unknown error code" pop up message. Even I tried to use Wifi, it's still the same.
What do you think would be the cause of this issue?
Thanks. James
Happy (belated-ish) new year! Hope it's been a great one.
Any Dropbox users out there will recognize the drop down menu that one can add to their Finder toolbar.
Upon discovering that this existed, I immediately wondered if/how I could create my own sort of drop down menu (just as Dropbox did; Finder comes with plenty of native ones as it is). You'll notice a variety of icons beside the Get Info button; these are applications. Given how much clutter they create for me (it gets somewhat annoying to have to expand the Finder window every time I create one), it would be really convenient to be able to create my own drop down menu button, which would contain any applications or files I want to store in my toolbar.
I currently don't know how to code for Mac, so any extremely involved solutions would be a bit difficult. I can work with Applescript and C#, though. Essentially what I'm looking for is an application that allows one to create these drop down menus, or some other (fairly simple) way to create plugins for Finder.
Some quick tech specs:
Side note:
This might be something of interest as far as my question goes. I'm not necessarily looking to create a button (although a drop down menu is technically activated by a button), but I think this explains fairly nicely how I'd like to go about creating the drop down menu.
Thanks!
