Storage shows more space used than actually used
I got my Mac 2 days ago and installed a few softwares, Xcode, Android Studio and stuff. Today I noticed my Storage as this:
17GB of Apps might be there but I dont have any Audio/Photos! Where is this 2GB going? And whats this 13Gb other?
Is there an app that can locate these files taking this space?
Capability to create a conversation on someone else's iPad from a different location?
I found a conversation on my fiance's iMessage account between him and another girl—a very inappropriate one. It was the only conversation besides the one he was having with me marked the same time and the same date. He tells me that she had an app that created the conversation, that it was fake, and she somehow got it to save on his iPad to his iMessages
I get that maybe she could log in on his account but wouldn't he also see the text as they were "created" if he was texting me simultaneously?
Backup of a cracked screen
I cracked my iPhone 5 screen and the right side of the screen is black and un-touchable but the left is fine. I want to back my phone up to my computer and when i try iTunes says "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be backed up." but i can't put my password because i can't touch all the buttons to put it in. HELP!!!

"file not sent" from Android to Macbook, whereas they're paired
I'm trying to send a file from Android to Macbook via bluetooth. I pair them successfully and when I'm sending a file from Android, it just ends up saying "file not sent". In the Macbook happens nothing at that time, no pop up window or something.
That's it.
How can I restore photos from Time Machine when iPhoto application has been deleted
I accidentally deleted iPhoto app and am trying to restore my pictures on Time Machine.
Cannot update Numbers document on iPad
I have a Mac, running OS X 10.10.2 and an iPad Mini running iOS 8.1
Both have the latest version of Numbers.
I have a spreadsheet, which I update roughly monthly on the Mac. I have transferred this spreadsheet (and a couple of others) to the iPad using iTunes Apps/File Sharing/Numbers/Stored Documents.
I recently tried to update, but even though iTunes shows this as being modified, the iPad has an old version. (In fact this is an even older version from 17 November, so my past update mustn't have worked either.) I tried to delete the old, and create a new spreadsheet with a new name, but this doesn't work either.
How can I fix this?
I do have an iCloud account, but only use for Contacts and Calendar. I do not use iCloud Drive - and don't want to as I have older devices which don't support iOS 8.
Will new Photos app be cloud-only?
Will the new Photo App be able to work off-line, meaning, will I be able to have my Photo library locally stored in my hard disk, or is it an iCloud only app.
If it won't, will I be able to continue using iPhoto after I install Photos, or will it delete/deactivate/kill iPhoto to force users to migrate to Photos?
How to Spotlight index a folder under /private/var
I got a directory /private/var/directory that I'd like to index using Spotlight. It looks like everything under /private/var/ is excluded from indexing. I tried to import it using:
mdimport /private/var/directory
But it didn't work. I also thought it might be excluded by some kind of sandboxed environment, but I couldn't figure out if that is the case.
As a last resort I could move the directory somewhere else but I'd rather not do that as it would be a lot of work in this particular case.
How can I force Spotlight to index this directory?
Can applepay technology be used to pay for metro rail and fares?
In Los Angeles county, we have a tap card system where you hold it against the surface on a reader and it deducts the card value from the card. Can iphone smartphones with applepay be used as a proxy to these tap cards? Are the technologies compatible?
Edit:
According to Wikipedia, the tap cards are based on rfid: http://ift.tt/1KoSo0j
Apple pay is also based on rfid
Optimize filesystem for speed over integrity
On Linux, I use the noatime,nodiratime,nobarrier,data=writeback mount optioins in /etc/fstab to trade filesystem safety/consistency/integrity for speed which makes sense for local development. Is there a way to do something similar or to otherwise make such a trade off for the other OS X developers on my team?
Are copies using rsync faster than using Finder?
So - I have a question about using rsync in Terminal. I need to move a Time Machine backup off of an external drive in order to reformat it. The 'backups' folder is nearly 300 GB. At first I tried to use CarbonCopyCloner to create a sparseimage on the disk I am moving the data to. That didn't work because, according to Bombich, TM backups are treated differently and can't be processed by CCC.
Then I decided to use Disk Utility to create a new 300GB SparseImage on the destination and use rsync to copy the backup folder to the new SparseImage. I used the rsync commands (sudo rsync -va --progress )and dragged the source and destination paths into the Terminal window. After I authenticated, Terminal started creating a list of files to deal with - but this listing task went on for hours, which seems to completely defeat the idea of creating an efficient transfer. What did I do wrong? Should I not have asked for verbose responses - or did I make some other error.
Eventually the task completed, but it took over two days using a USB 2 wired connection. Would this have taken the same amount of time if I had just dragged the folder across using Finder?
Obviously - I am a noob with Terminal, so any help will be much appreciated.
Why does my late 2014 MacBook Pro sometimes not detect my USB devices?
Here's my normal routine when I get to the office:
- Set down laptop on desk
- Connect power, MiniDisplayPort adapter, HDMI cable, and powered USB hub
- Open and close MacBook Pro to wake it up and go into clamshell mode
Sometimes I swap steps 2 and 3. Most of the time everything works fine, but maybe once every week or two I find that I can't type anything using the USB keyboard because the laptop refuses to detect the USB hub or anything plugged into it.
Unplugging the USB hub and plugging it back in alone doesn't fix the problem. Unplugging devices from the hub and plugging them back in also does not fix the problem.
The solution that seems to work most of the time is to open the laptop up again, type the password using the laptop's keyboard, then unplug the USB hub and plug it back in.
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did you solve it?
Make keyboard movement keys (like ^f, ^b) work in non-english layouts
It perfectly works in english keyboard layout in almost any window with text input. But as soon as I switch keyboard layout to something not-english (russian in my cause) those shortcuts stop working.
How can I fix it? I've got really used to it.
Calendar on iphone 5S
pretty elementary but hey I'm a senior - when I add an event to my calendar, so help me there is NO "Save" button I swear. So nothing gets saved to my calendar!!!! I can set everything but I can't save anything.
Is using the Sprite Kit default spaceship image in my app a copyright infringement?
I am developing a game using sprite kit.
When we create a new Spritekit project, by default a spaceship image is present in it.
I can delete the icon and make my own but I really like that icon for my spaceship-related game.
Can I use that sprite for my game or it will be a copyright infringement?
And what copyright usages are there on it, is it Public and does it have Attribution 3.0 license?
VTDecoderXPCService taking CPU
Sometimes I notice CPU load for no reason and I see in Activity Monitor that VTDecoderXPCService is using 15-30% of CPU.
After I restart Safari it is ok for some time until it happens again.
Any ideas? Could be flash related? When this happens there is no videos loaded in tabs but maybe one play triggers the problem.
Should I just uninstall Flash from the system? I'm still on Mavericks and Safari 7 - will youtube play without issues via HTML5? I heard they made it work on Safari 8, not sure about 7.
Thank you
OmniDazzle alternative for modern Macs?
Is there any tool that runs on current Macs providing a flashlight effect to highlight a portion on the screen?
In the past I've used OmniDazzle to create screen casts using this effect. On recent OS X versions it doesn't work any more, though..
Any hint appreciated!
What photo management application can I migrate to that would preserve iPhoto's face detection data?
I've used iPhoto for many years and found that it was suitable for what I wanted to do. Since Apple has discontinued iPhoto and Aperature in favor of their new Photos application, I'm seriously considering switching applications for my photo management since I'm just not happy with the direction they're taking the software. All well and good, but the annoying thing is that I've spent hours of my time working with the face detection feature of iPhoto and I'd hate to lose all the work tweaking the exception cases (i.e. iPhoto couldn't make out who someone was and I had to manually tell it).
Are there any applications out there which I can migrate to which would preserve all the face data that I've coached iPhoto on?
For what its worth, I'm still on iPhoto '09 as iPhoto '11 didn't seem like that much of an improvement to me; in fact, the removal of the LAN sharing and obfuscated context menu items (e.g. reveal in finder type functions) stopped me from upgrading.
Any thoughts?
Are older versions of iWorks available?
Can I download a version of iWorks from Apple that will work with 10.6.8 before I upgrade to 10.7 or above. I have a lot of Appleworks files I want to convert before I upgrade the system.
Is there a problem with GeForce 750M performance on gaming?
I play games on my Mid-2014 retina MBP, which has both Iris Pro and GeForce 750M 2GB. One of the games that I play (League of Legends, which has a 'beta' OS X client, but I highly doubt that this is the reason) sometimes runs slow on graphics-intensive scenes. Today, I forgot my GPU on 'Integrated only' (I use gfxCardStatus) and entered the game. Interestingly, the game almost never slowed down at all, even on graphics intensive scenes, running smoothly on 60FPS. I've upped the settings and it was still running smoothly at settings which severely affected GT750M's performance. I've doubled checked the active GPU and yes it is Intel Iris Pro. How can this happen? How can integrated graphics perform better than a GT750M on gaming? I know Iris Pro is a great 'integrated' card (compared to other integrated cards), but I highly doubt that it does better than 750M. If it really did, then why would it co-exist with 750M anyway?
Why would this be happening?
Disable automatic link formatting
I'm sending a Mail message with text that looks like a link. I've color-coded this text, and I don't want it transformed into an underlined blue link. How can I stop Mail from "linkifying" my text when I send it?
Note: I know that I can right-click on a link and select "Disable Link", but unfortunately 1) these links don't show up until the email is sent, and 2) disabling the link doesn't seem to change how it displays the email when it is received.
I did a test with the word link.google.com and this is what the raw source looks like after sending:
--Apple-Mail=...
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-Type: text/html;

Are all USB numeric keypads OSX comatible?
My office uses the small Apple bluetooth keyboards. I have a user who is requesting a numeric keypad. Apple sells a Belkin wireless keypad on their website, but it has terrible reviews and it isnt cheap.
There are countless USB numeric keypads that are a fraction of the price, all designed for Windows.
If I buy one of the USB ones, it should work on a Mac, right? It is just a USB keyboard...
/Volumes/external_drive folder not being removed
I have a 2TB external HDD, formatted using exFAT. It seems that, even after I eject the disk, the mount point remains in /Volumes. Thus, every time I plug the drive in, a new mount point gets created in /Volumes using a numerical incrementer:
- /Volumes/external_drive/
- /Volumes/external_drive 1/
- /Volumes/external_drive 2/
- etc.
This is a pain, as I have my torrents written to that disk. If I have to interrupt a torrent download and unplug the drive, when I plug the drive back in, the download folder ends up in a different place which causes problems for e.g., uTorrent. This can be avoided if I remember to go in and manually delete the orphaned mount point directory, but filesystem cleanup seems to be something that the OS handles. Is there a way to avoid this?
Note for clarity: I am ejecting the disk (e.g., right-click on the desktop icon and select "Eject external_drive"). I am NOT just yanking out the USB cable.
Writing emails in different languages in Mail.app
How can I write emails in another language, with a spell check for that language? Is there a language dictionary to opt for?
Macbook Pro Early 2011 - SSD - Orphaned inodes
I have a Macbook Pro 15' Early 2011. Last year I changed the disk to put a new Samsung SSD (Evo). Recently my computer was really slow. I rebooted on the recovery partition, and tested my disk with disk utility. It showed a lot of "orphaned inodes".
After a clean install and a few weeks, I had the same problem. So I started thinking the SSD was failing. After another few weeks, I couldn't even boot (prohibitory sign at bootup).
I sent it to Samsung as it was still under warranty. They apparently tested it, and saw no problem at all. They formatted it again and flashed it with the last firmware.
I received it two days ago, did a clean install, and today if I run disk utility, I still have these orphaned inodes.
What can I do? Is the SSD failing, or can it be some other part of my computer?
Thanks a lot!
Can't download itunes album purchased on a different computer to Iphone
I purchased an album this morning on my laptop at home. I got on the bus and realized that all of the songs hadn't downloaded. I logged onto itunes at work and the album shows up under purchased music, but it won't let me download it to my music on my iphone. I've authorized the computer, I've checked that the purchase isn't hidden and I've tried to drag and drop the album into my music. It will pull over to there and it shows the little plus mark, but it doesn't download it to my music. Please help! I can't figure this out.
Time Machine often says, "No Backups for # Days" even though it should back up every weekday
I have a late 2014 MBP that I hook up to power and an external hard drive at work every weekday for 8 hours. I've been running Yosemite for less than a week, and before that I was running Mavericks.
Time Machine only seems to complete a backup once or twice every 2 weeks. Today I got a message that said, "No Backups for 10 days." I see similar messages all the time, and I think usually they say there haven't been any backups for 5 or more days. If I open Time Machine, I can see numerous entries in the timeline for the past several days--I assume these are the "snapshots."
What could be causing Time Machine to fail to complete for so many days in a row? Is there something I can do to improve its success? If not, am I at least safe as long as it completes once in a blue moon and shows recent snapshots in the Time Machine app?
Application will not launch after crash or force quit
I have an App (Transmission) which won't launch after it hangs and I force quit. It won't launch from the Dock or applications folder. A reboot will resolve the problem but I have another long running process which I don't want to interrupt. Is there some way to get it to launch without rebooting? Transmission is not listed as a running process in Activity monitor or ps -ef | grep -i transmission
Disable a specific app from ever bouncing in dock

Is it possible to stop one app from bouncing?
Mid 2014 Retina MacBook Pro sometimes crashes switching to discrete GPU
I've recently started to get crashes when changing to GPU (I'm using gfxCardStatus and I know which apps/plugins etc use discrete GPU). It only happens sometimes and I can't really examine a pattern. It's not bound to a specific app, specific time, I don't know, it just hangs the system completely sometimes when changing from integrated to discrete GPU, the screen, including the cursor is completely frozen, and the only way out is as system reset by pressing the power button. I've been using my computer for longer than a month and I've started having these crashes only in the last week or so. I don't want to disable automatic graphics switching as it helps me to preserve battery when I travel, and I also play games/use graphics intensive apps like Photoshop, Premiere etc. so I also can't stick to integrated too.
I'm on 10.10.2 (it might have started since I've upgraded to 10.10.2, but I can't really rely on it -- no it's not, after revealing a log file from 10.10.1), my integrated is Intel Iris Pro, and my discrete is NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB, and I'm using the 1920x1200 'scaled' resolution (the one in default options, so it renders at 3840x2400 and downscales), if it helps, and those are the settings that I've been using since the day I've bought my Mac. I'm sure that it's GPU switching related because it exactly happens at the point where GPU switches when starting discrete-GPU-using apps, and the first time it happened, my Mac displayed a message telling me that it shut down due to a graphics related problem. I've just sent the report and it's not displayed after any of the crashes again (if it did, I'd note it somewhere and post it here). I get GPU switches many times a day, and it seems to happen only in 20-30 of the times. Otherwise, my system has no issues, no heating, abnormal fans etc. everything is smooth, including the GPU (unless it crashes).
Why would this be?
Update: I've found the crash logs in Console.app. There are a few files like Kernel_2015-01-27-183045_Cans-MacBook-Pro.gpuRestart with content almost the same. A sample one of them goes like:

According to what I see on the report, while I'm not an expert, it seems like integrated graphics is hanging when switching to discrete, the cause of them problem seems like integrated graphics, not discrete one. However, it's just my personal assumption after examining the log. I could post the whole crash dump, but I don't think if it will mean anything here.
UPDATE 2: It happened to me again, I was listening to music and music kept playing, indicating that the system itself didn't hang completely at all.
Certain youtube videos won't play on iOS devices ONLY on wifi
I've seen many people have this error but haven't found any answers. Here is the most specific symptoms I can provide:
Certain videos, such as "Tonight you belong to me" by youtube user Benjamin A. James give an error when you try to play it on iOS devices, ONLY when you're on wifi. It says "Playback error. Tap to retry".
However, if you turn off wifi and use cellular data, the video will instantly play. And here's the kicker.... if you start the video while on cellular data, then pause it, then turn on your wifi and press play, the video continues playing just fine; and you can even see the buffer loading. But the moment you close the video and try to play it again it gives the error.
I've duplicated this on three networks already, home, work, and friend's house. It happened with 3 iphones and 2 ipads, all on either iOS 7 or 8.
FYI, the video plays just fine on android and PCs connected on wifi. It seems to be specific to only iOS devices, using the youtube app, while on wifi... and only certain videos.
This is the most specific bug I've ever seen. If anyone can decipher this problem, you'd be doing me, and hundreds of other people a huge favor. Thanks all.
Apple terminal no home and end key - Use cmd left or cmd right
How do I make
cmd left and cmd right move the text cursor very left and right of the terminal entry line. This keyboard shortcut works on most things on my mac book but not the Terminal.
Usually I use the home and end keys on other non apple computers. Strangely enough ctrl A and ctrl E achieve this in the mac terminal but it is the wrong key combination in my opinion. I want to do it using cmd left and cmd right.
It is similar to this question.. however I want to specifically map it to cmd left and cmd right. Can home and end keys be mapped when using Terminal?
built-in screen flickers on macbook air
I have an early MBA 11" (Jan 2011), dual booting to Mavericks and windows 7. Recently it has started exhibiting the following symptoms:
built-in display flickers during boot and continues to flicker regardless of which OS I boot or display resolution. the flicker is hardly noticeable when displaying a white window full screen but very noticeable on darker colours. If an external display is attacked, that works fine.
after closing and re-opening the lid, the display stays black. If an external display is attacked, that works fine.
I recently installed a video driver update in Windows which I assumed was unrelated because the problem isn't limited to Windows, but a colleague tells me that driver updates could flash the firmware?. I have done a PRAM reset but this didn't make any difference.
I have used the laptop a lot in both Windows and OSX, with and without an external monitor, and never had any problems before.
Any thing else I can try before taking it to a repair shop?
On a related point, should I take it to the apple store or is it safe to use a non-apple repair shop (who claim to be apple experts)?
My Macbook Pro cannot see my Macbook when using Wifi
I have a 2009 I-Mac that is hooked to the Ethernet. When I hook my 2012 Macbook Pro to an ethernet cable I can see the I-mac. However when the macbook pro is using wireless (no ethernet) it cannot see the I-mac and the I-mac cannot see the Macbook. Both machines are running Yosemite. I have security disabled on the Linksys router. All sharing on both Macs is on. I don't have a great deal of computer experience so I am sure there are many things I have not tried.
Bootcamp - No ISO Option

Fast way to download a video from an URL
Is there an easy way to download a video from an URL to the device or to your Dropbox?
The only way I have managed to do that is using Mercury: manually copying the URL, going to the download manager and then pasting the URL there. Then, from Mercury I can save it to my camera roll or upload it to Dropbox.
Is there an easier way of doing this? Any way that doesn't involve copy/paste, either using Mercury or any other browse?
Loopback in Yosemite not worlking
I'm on Yosemite (10.10.2). Since upgrading I got some DNS issues, it seems my loopback isn't working any more. When I'm talking to my app locally via http://localhost:port, localhost in some cases (sorry for being vague here) gets resolved to my current local IP. (observed with rails and openstack)
some analysis:
mac:~ me$ scutil -r localhost
Reachable,Local Address,Directly Reachable Address
mac:~ me$ scutil -r loopback
Not Reachable
etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost
etc/networks:
loopback 127 loopback-net
And a maybe related issue: DNS sometimes stops working completely. The only thing that helps, is a force quit of the discoveryd process.
I appreciate any help guiding me in the right direction to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.

How should I clean up old mailbox files?
I'm using Mail.app to read my gmail via IMAP. I recently realised that, since I have a huge amount of mail in that account, and a fairly small SSD, it would be wise to reconfigure the account the save as much storage space as possible. I've done that, but it seems the old mailbox file hasn't been removed. In particular,
~/Library/Mail/V2/IMAP-{email account}/[Gmail].mbox/All Mail.mbox
is massive: 2.9G. I believe that's a hangover from the old account that I've removed. I'm unsure whether everything else in the [Gmail].mbox is new or old, but it's all much smaller.
There's also a directory named:
~/Library/Mail/V2/IMAP-{email account}/INBOX.mbox which is much smaller (16M) and I believe represents the account I've now configured in Mail.app.
What's the best way of clearing this all up? Should I try to selectively rm individual directories, or should I just remove everything and start over? Is there a nice way to remove everything (or, ideally, purge the stuff not in use) or should I rm the directories in V2 that relate to specific email accounts (I have other accounts in use, but I'm happy to remove them and set them up again if recommended)? I'm wary about ending up with a non-functioning Mail.app - if there's a way to uninstall (including data) and reinstall the app, that might be the best option.
Where is the bluetooth antenna located in iPhones?
I posted this question on the Apple support forum, but no one could give me an answer.
I am researching iBeacons for my final year project at University and I'm interested to know the position of the Bluetooth antenna in the iPhones.
Can anybody give me a reliable source explaining where the bluetooth antenna is located on the different versions of the iPhones? iPhone 4S up to 6 plus.
Cheers.
How to launch an iOS simulator with safari opened using a single command?
I am looking for a solution to launch the iOS simulator from command line with Safari launched by default. Launching the simulator from command line is easy. So is the launching of safari. But I want (rather need) to do this in a single command line statement which will be executed from some third party tool. Is there a possible way to do this?
I have xCode 6.0 installed with me on OSX version 10.9.4. Any help or guideline is highly appreciated. For now, I am starting the simulator using xcrun instruments -w "iPhone 6 (8.1 Simulator)"
But I am not able to figure out if we can pass extra arguments to this statement so that it launches safari as well.
How to completely uninstall iCloud?

How do I download Yosemite on my imac?
I have an iMac (newer than 2007),and I need to run this year's version of Turbo Tax. I am getting a message indicating that my current OS X, which is 10.6.8, is not sufficient to run this year's Turbo Tax (premier version).
I have tried to download Yosemite and have been unsuccessful. I assume that once I download a new OS, that it will appear in place of the 10.6.8 when I click on the Apple icon at the top left side of my screen and ten click on about this mac. How can I download Yosemite?
Logitech Type+ flashing blue; iPad Air 2 won't wake
When I leave my iPad Air 2 for some 5 minutes and return, my asleep iPad refuses to wake when I press the power button. I press the power button on my keyboard case (Logitech Type+) and the little light on it flashes blue. As of writing this has happened 3 times today and right now it just isn't waking. Any ideas?
Why do duplicates keep showing up in my address book?

However, sometimes I'll get an email from a contact and the picture won't show up. In fact, an entirely new email-entry shows up in the address book even if that email is already associated with a contact.
Any advice on how I can make this stop happening? My Contacts is now full of duplicates.
