Thanks

Why does hdiutil fail on symlinks when creaing an image of a Time Machine backup?


I am trying to create a compressed disk image of a Time Machine backup (that is stored on an external HDD) on Yosemite.


hdiutil fails on the first symlink it comes across. Before the failure, there is also an authentication error followed by a GUI password prompt. If I deny the authentication, the following happens:

I found the same issue discussed here, but they never seem to get to the bottom of what the problem with the symbolic link is that is causing copy-helper to fail.


Why does hdiutil prompt for ownership permissions, and why does it fail on this symlink?





How can I set up the internal HDD on my iMac to be able to connect to it from my laptop at college?


To better explain my question and what I am trying to do...


my iMac is in my room in my parents house, and I want to be able to connect to my iMac's hard drive from about 300 miles away at college on my PC. Would it be possible to somehow set up the HDD via ftp. I know it is possible inside of local network to connect via ftp but I have never seen this be done outside of a local network.


If anyone has anymore ideas, videos explaining how to do this, or just simply knows the steps that need to be done to set this up please share.


If it helps, I am on my iMac right now.


Thanks

Time machine migration has been preparing for 14 hours, is this normal?


There's very little information on how long time machine migrations are supposed to take on Google. I have 200GB or so under my user and it has been stuck on "preparing to transfer user documents" for 14 hours.


enter image description here


What's a normal time? Can I see the progress somehow without interrupting it? Should I just cancel it?

Making iPhone/iPad the master when syncing with iTunes


I am syncing my iPhone with my Mac using iTunes. How do I make the iPhone have priority over the Mac? I mean, I want to copy what is on the iPhone to iTunes, deleting from iTunes what is not anymore on the iPhone.


I hate when I clean my phone, do a sync, just to have iTunes copy everything back, because iTunes database regarding to that phone is not the same.


iTunes gives what is on iTunes a priority and I want the reverse.


thanks.





Source of grease inside unibody macbook?


I have a unibody 2012 macbook which appears to have some kind of grease around the battery area, between the battery and the case.


This machine has been serviced by a third party applecare provider for hard drive cable failure several times, and I'm wondering if that's something they might have left in there for some reason?


Are there any pads/components/labels that sometimes leach grease under high temperature?


The only other plausible explanation would be that it has somehow leached in through the screw holes (there is no contamination in the keyboard/motherboard/optical area, so it can't have come from above), which I also find pretty hard to believe.


Visually it looks like a sticky drink has dried up, but when you touch it it has the consistency of vaseline.


Picture (apologies for poor quality, phone is all that's available):


grease


All plausible theories appreciated!





Safari displays blank pages for some sites


OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 Safari Version 8.0.2 (10600.2.5)


Some pages, sometimes on Apple's on support site simply display as blank pages. The same page displays perfectly on Firefox or Chrome. What is this strange behaviour? For example, this link: http://ift.tt/1BTY7WN shows a completely blank page. See: http://ift.tt/1yRvNGV


The same site displays without problem in Firefox. (Can't post image due to low reputation.)


I have no extensions installed in Safari. JS is enabled, all settings are default. This is a fresh install of Yosemite.


What's going on. Any pointers will be appreciated. Thanks.





time-machine: selective file restore - I just want a few things from a TM backup that was made of another MacBook


So I have a Time Machine backup (on an external USB hard drive) that was made from a 2010 MacBook Pro. I think the computer was running the latest OS at the time the last backup was made -- Nov 2013, probably Mavericks, but maybe Mountain Lion.


There are some pictures in that backup as well as a lot of personal files. I would like to recover these pictures and personal files. The computer from which the backup was made has since been completely erased and reformated and sold. My only hope is recovering the files from TimeMachine.


I am now working from a 2014 MacBook Pro. I can connect the TimeMachine disk via USB and see it appear in finder, etc., but I can't seem to browse the backup and select the pictures and personal files that I would like to duplicate onto my new machine.





Clear up space on my phone that seems be taken up by recently deleted photos?


I had over 4 GB worth of photos on my phone and a month ago I deleted them all.


As of recently, the 1600 or so photos in the "recently deleted" album were automatically deleted. The usage section in the Settings app says that I still have over 1800 photos and that I only have 1.5 GB of space left on the device.


As far as I can tell I have less than 100 photos left in the Photos app.


I've rebooted my phone and even hooked it up to iTunes but nothing helps. Any way to fix this other than completely erasing everything and going back to factory settings?





Cannot use AirDrop on my Mac running Yosemite


I am trying to use AirDrop to copy some files to my iPad Air 2 but have some problems.


In my AirDrop folder, it never asked me whether I want to share it with Contact or Everyone. I have my ipad AirDrop turned on but it does not appear on my Mac's AirDrop folder.


I have Wifi and Bluetooth turned on on both devices. This is what my AirDrop window looks like:

Can someone please help on this?





Is there a way to convert dimensions to inches in OS X?


When I Get Info on a pdf or an image it gives me the dimensions in points, which is great. I need to know how big an image would be, at full size, in inches. Is there somewhere in OS X where that info is available? I found this question where you can get that info via Preview, but having to open each file is painful.





iPad battery level doesn't increase when in use while charging


When I plug my ipad 3 in to charge while using it, the battery icon shows it is charging but the battery level percentage doesn't change. If it's at 18% when I plug in, it remains at 18% until I put it in standby.


Is this normal, because generally my ipad charges far faster than I can deplete the battery?

Viewing notes from an old iPod touch 4th generation.


I had a 4th generation iPod touch and lost it over a year ago after I received a fifth generation. Now I would like to at least view the notes I had written on my old iPod but I don't have a gmail connected to it or anything that I know of that can allow me to do this. Ideas?





What is the difference between a `service-name` and a `service-target`?


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?





Why won't iTunes 12 Yosemite will not Get Track Names?


With iTunes 12 and Yosemite, when attempting to import an audio cd, iTunes 12 / Yosemite will report the error


The song names for this CD could not be found online. Do you still want to import the songs?


Additionally it will only display a error message of "No Error" and an OK button when attempting to Get Track Names of a Audio CD.


I have only found a way to fix this if I was running windows. (I am not.)


Any ideas?





How to create a Mac bootable gparted or Parted Magic thumb drive?


Is it possible to create a Mac-bootable thumb drive containing gparted or Parted Magic without installing a full Linux distribution?


I tried several methods like



  • unetbootin (some blogs suggest this though the unetbootin site explicitly mentions that it isn't possible)

  • sudo dd if=/.../.iso of=/dev/rdiskx


which both failed.





2012 MacMini HDD died while installing Win 10 Tech Preview


I have a problem with a 2012 MacMini. diskutil list shows an internal 500 GB 5400 rpm drive as having 0 Bytes.


It also states that it is unknown. Would TestDisk be able to reformat the drive?


Disk Utility will not let me format or partition, all options are greyed out. Any ideas on resurrecting a drive in this state?


The history of events:


I was on Yosemite 10.10.1 when I tried to use bootcamp to install Windows 10.


That did not work so well and I ended up with gray screen.


Trying to recover using the USB Installer with 10.10 does not see my HDD and does not let me format it.


10.10


Using the Internet recovery brings up the Mountain Lion Installer but can not proceed with the disk problem been: Not recognized.


ML installer


How do I format my HDD now and start over.


If I were to remove the drive from the mini and insert it into an external case, would I be able format it as JHFS+/GUID or FAT32/MBR?





Mail not responding when syncing with Google Apps Gmail account in OS X Yosemite 10.10.1


Mail.app goes unresponsive whenever a specific Gmail account is added.


If I quit the process and go to System Preferences > Internet Accounts and disable the account, I can start Mail normally.


I can then use my other accounts (Exchange and Gmail) normally. If I then go to Preferences and enable the offending Gmail account, new emails are downloaded and then mail goes unresponsive.


I have tried removing and recreating the internet account, the mailbox, etc. I can verify that Mail downloads 1.5GB of data (approximately the size of the Gmail account) whenever I recreate the account. It remains unresponsive whenever the account is active.


I have tried the solution laid out here. It worked the first time this happened and now did not resolve the issue.


Can anyone think of any other steps to take to reset mail and get this issue fixed? Does anyone know the source of the bug?





First Admin account not showing on login page


I created a second Admin account on my Macbook Pro (Yosemite) and also enabled Guest login. Now I can only access the second account and the guest login from the login screen, the primary admin account is no longer shown.


It is also not shown in the fast user switching menu, nor am I able to log into it when I select username and password as login option.


I have not activated FileVault and I have not hidden the user by adding it to the HiddenUsersList. Any other things I might check?


I am able to su to the old user and the home directory and all still exist.





iMessage speech (applescript) timing out after upgrade to yosemite


When I receive an iMessage, chat or Message on my desktop (iMac), it is read out loud.


After the upgrade to Yosemite it does not work. I continue to receive the message that "AppleScript timed out." I click on "wait" and it will read it. This occurs when I SEND as well as when I RECEIVE messages, although reading aloud is only on receive. - I would love if someone might address this issue! It still works great on my previous OS version on my laptop.





How can I eliminate this repeated Java Runtime Environment (JRE) pop-up window?


This window has been popping up repeatedly:repeated


I was sure that I already had the latest version of Java installed, but to verify I went here: http://ift.tt/1lxligS


And sure enough I have the latest JRE. enter image description here


Then I went and followed the directions here to find the JRE via my command line: http://ift.tt/1C0Tpa3 which says to enter:



$ /Library\Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/javaversion



and the terminal output was:



-bash: /LibraryInternet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/javaversion: No such file or directory



Can anyone help me identify what I'm doing wrong here?





How to remove apps that are remembered by App Store?


Over the past few years, I have downloaded various apps onto my iPhone from the App Store. I have noticed that the App Store remembers the apps that I have downloaded. So, for instance: If I download an app and then delete it from my phone and go back into the App Store, the download icon is different (it doesn't say "+Get" like apps that I have never downloaded before, instead it will have an icon of a cloud with an arrow pointing downwards).


How to I get the App Store/iCloud to forget these programs?





Restore OS X .dmg file to External Drive - Possible?


So I recently traded in my iMac with 1TB HDD for a MacBook Pro with a 256GB flash drive.


I want to restore my previous hard drive but obviously it won't fit on the new hard drive.


Is it possible to restore the .dmg TO the external hard drive where the .dmg file resides? If not, how do I restore these files?


I have some very important files on there so I don't want to go testing something and then accidentally wiping that backup.


Thanks in advance!





iPhone 5s aware of location even with no cellular service?


I live in USA and took my VZW iPhone 5s to Scotland; I never purchased a SIM card to use there. I noticed that my iPhone pictures uploaded to Flickr have accurate location data associated with each picture. Example, I was walking around Edinburgh and taking pictures without WiFi/cell connection, but the images still display accurate location of where I took images.


How is that possible?

In OS X, how does manually sandboxing an application from the internet compare to blocking it with Little Snitch?


I want to prevent inbound and outbound connections to one application. I can buy Little Snitch if it's the best option, but it feels like I wouldn't be getting much value out of it for that one use.


I've been trying to read up on OSX's ability to manually sandbox applications from functions you can specify. I'm wondering if this is something worth pursuing - meaning will it be as good (or more effective) than Little Snitch to block one application only, and how complex is it to set up for an OS X novice?


I've been trying to work out exactly how to go about this. 'man sandbox-exec' probably tells me all I need to know, but I need more dumbed-down steps of the whole process if possible.





Can't open my iPad mini


I shutdown my iPad and left it for a while. Now I want to start it again and I can't open it. I've used the sleep/awake button, also use that with the home button but I can't open it at all. It sits there with the Apple icon on the screen and sometimes it has a spinning little icon in the middle. I sure would appreciate some help.





Is there a way to kill an unresponsive applescript launched by an application without killing the application?


I've got an AppleScript that I usually launch out of Quicksilver, but occasionally, the script hangs, never exiting. (I think it's waiting on a non-existent window to appear).


This results in Quicksilver being monopolized, waiting for the script to die off.


If this were a Windows box, there would be a "scripting host" process I could end to fix this, but I'm not sure if OS X has a similar process. Nothing jumps out at me in the process list.


Of course, I could just kill and restart Quicksilver, but I'm wondering if there's an explicit way to just kill a runaway applescript that's running in the context of another application?





"Log out (username)" logs out all users


When I click on "Log out User A" in the Apple menu, then click the Log Out button, the current user is logged out. After I get back to the user selection page, I can pick another logged-in user (call them User B), but almost as soon as I see their desktop they start logging out as well. By the time I return to the user selection page, all users including User C and User D are also logged out.


I saw this a few times when using they keyboard shortcut (CMD-SHIFT-Q) for logout, where I'd quickly switch after logging out a user and see the "log out" popup prompt for an unrelated user, but I figured that somehow the keyboard input was being relayed to a background user's account (which would also be crazy, I grant you, but less crazy than this).


I think it started happening when I upgraded to 10.10, but I wouldn't swear to it. It's happening almost every time I log anybody out now, and I'd really like to make it stop. Help?





Is it possible to warn the users who left bad comments other than trying to help in a question?


I see that there are some users who left bad comments in the question when they do not understand what the OP wants to ask.

I hope that the moderators can warn them not to do it again because what they did will discourage the OP from asking new questions.





How to Multicast audio stream on my laptop - MAC-OSX - Mavericks - the source and destination is same here?


I am using VLC to multicast an audio stream - song on my OS-X mavericks. I need multicasting streaming only here. However, I cannot hear the audio. The volume level of my machine is fine. Looks, like the audio streaming or receiving is not working.


Here are the steps that I did to setup a multicast streaming. I am streaming a MP3 song.

What are the dimensions for the apple dock icons?


I have figured out how to change the icon for my program that I made in java, but now the default icon goes and nothing is there, is it because of the incorrect dimensions? I currently have a 16x16 logo, is anyone able to help me with what the dimensions need to do in order for it to display correctly?


Additional Note: The icon is a .png file if that helps in any way.





Equivalent to CMD-clicking on a webpage title in Safari 8 on Yosemite


In previous versions of Safari one could CMD-click on the webpage title at the top of Safari's window and get a menu with the website's folder hierarchy.


For example if you're at http://ift.tt/TCFl6H, clicking on the title would give you a menu with the following items:



allowing you to quickly navigate the website in question. Finder still has that feature if you want to see it in action. Just go to a folder, then CMD-click on that folder's name or icon in the title bar.


I liked that feature, however, it seems to have been removed in Safari 8. What I want to ask is, is there a way to restore it? A keyboard shortcut I've missed perhaps?





TextEdit app always opens with File Open dialog


Every time I open my TextEdit app it starts with the File Open dialog open.

Blocked sign-in attempt to Google Account


This morning I had an email in my inbox from Google saying "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account (Date & Time: Saturday, January 10, 2015 3:01:26 AM UTC Location: Oxford, UK)"


They provide a link: http://ift.tt/13ZSu8M


This takes me to the following: enter image description here


Originally it showed me the IP of the attack. I then put "what is my IP" into Google to discover that it is actually my own IP, so I clicked the "this is actually me" box, and hence I can no longer show the screenshot with the IP.


My question is: what could have caused this? I went to bed before midnight; I think I closed the lid last night (in which case the machine should have been in sleep mode), but even if I didn't -- I usually leave it on some radio station when I sleep -- it hasn't given me any warnings before, so why now?


The page says it isn't my Mac that is causing the problem. But the only other device I have is my android phone and the Wi-Fi is disabled, and it doesn't have any 3G type Internet. I keep those things off to save battery. It did have Bluetooth on (I must have forgotten to turn that off days back).


I've also got a standard Apple issue keyboard and trackpad, and this morning the trackpad bleated about wanting new batteries.


That's it! That's all the electronic things I have. And a wi-Fi repeater which plugs into the downstairs router via an Ethernet cable.


So what could this warning be? Someone else is attempting to sign into my account from my home IP? That's really unlikely. It is a family home, I doubt one of my family is trying to hack me, I would however be impressed if this were the case. I haven't handed down any old computer equipment either.


So I have no clue.


Can anyone think of any possible explanation?





How can I change the system language without changing shortcuts?


I would like to change the OS X system language on one mac from english to french. If I do that, all standard-shortcuts also change. We use the Dvorak keyboard layout on all macs.


Example: In Preview, basically all shortcuts seem to by language-dependent. For example, View -> Thumbnails which is ALT+CMD+1 will be something entirely different.


The fact that all shortcuts are changed as well makes the system almost unusable (efficiently), esp. if you got to change between different-language macs frequently.

Changed xcode deployment target to 7 but still can't run app in emulator other than iphone 6


I followed the instructions outlined here How do I acquire SDKs to build target pre-8.0 iOS?. The deployment target for my project is 7.0. My app is basically one screen with a label and some buttons on it at this point and when I try to run it in iphone 5 or 4 emulator it crashes. It always starts in iphone 6 mode even if I start the emulator first and set it to 5 or 4. I'm not sure why this is happening because previously I made another app which runs in 4/5/5s/6 etc and it still works in any emulator version fine.





Screen Recording - NO COMPRESSION


I'm looking to record my screen similar to how Quicktime does it, but I need zero-compression, since I need the pixel colors to remain correct.


Basically, I need a automated series of screenshots, if that's possible - lossless PNG at half-second intervals.


Are there scripts or other tools to do this?
