OS X :: How To Stop WDTV Live HDD From Seeing From Mac

Jun 24, 2010

I purchased a WDTV Live HD with the intention to stream multimedia from my Mac.

On my Mac running Snow Leopard, I enabled File Sharing using SMB for my account. However, when I'm on WDTV, in additional to the shared folder I specified, it is able to see everything on my mac - drives, folders, and documents I didn't enable for sharing.

OS X :: Vuze Prevents WDTV Live From Connecting To The Computer?

Jan 12, 2010

I have three Macs and one PC. The WDTV has no problems accessing the Mac and PC that does not have Vuze installed. However, it can not access my Macbook Pro where Vuze is installed. I've talked to support teams at both Western Digital and Apple, and they said that everything was correct set-up at my end.

I'm suspecting that Vuze because:

Vuze clearly has affected how the Macbook Pro broadcast itself on my network. The PC, with Windows 7, sees the Macbook Pro as "Vuze on Vuze", not as "MacBook Pro", which is the name I have given the computer. The Macs sees it correctly as "Macbook Pro". Also, the WDTV sees the Macbook Pro as "VUZE", but when I try to connect, it says "The Media Server can not be accessed". I'm using the "Network Shares" feature on the WDTV and not the "Media Server" feature. I have also turned off the "UPnP" plugin under Media Servers in Vuze Preferences, but it didn't make a difference. Also, my Macbook Pro has three partitions with 10.6.2 installed. On the only partition that does not have Vuze installed, the WDTV can access it. So clearly something is up with Vuze.

I am a NYU college student and have my macbook pro (running snow leopard os) connected to the internet via ethernet connection. My mac is sharing internet through it's ethernet connection and my ipod, blackberry, and friend's computers can connect via it's connection. However, the same does not go for my xbox 360.

OS X :: Ubuntu Live CD - Gives Error When Trying To Boot

I have bought a book in which an Ubuntu Live CD is included. It is a custom copy, to be able to follow the book's tutorials. The case is that when I try to boot it, it gives me the error "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off". I really need this particular copy of Ubuntu to work. Does somebody know of a fix? Btw, I am a total beginner when it comes to Linux & the console. The machine I am trying to get it working is a MacBook 2.4Gh bought in Aug 2008.

OS X :: Cannot Get Into Hotmail - No Windows Live Inbox

Apr 10, 2009

I was able to get into hotmail earlier today. Later, when I tried to log in to hotmail later, it wouldn't work. With my main account, it doesn't do anything except just go back to the screen to enter my password. When I try my other account, it gets to a screen that says I don't have a windows live inbox (wtf). It doesn't appear isolated to my computer, as I tried my roommates computer, and his computer just kind did nothing but go to a blank screen when I enter my password.

PowerPC :: Xubuntu Live CD Won't Boot

Jul 13, 2009

Basically, my old Powerbook G4's hard drive died and I figured I could just use a live cd in the meantime. Sure it takes a long time to boot up and open apps but I was just going to use it for quick web searches. So, I got the latest PPC Xubuntu ISO (9.04) and burned it to a 700meg CD-RW. It's hard to explain what happens next so I made a video. If your wondering what the loud clicky noise is when I hit the power button, it's the dead hard drive trying to work. [URL:...] Any idea's on what to do? I'm not an experienced linux user but I know a few things.

OS X :: Settings Up Soundflower (For Live Streams)?

May 5, 2010

I need to setup SoundFlower properly so that I can do live streaming of audio. I have 3 (I think) audio sources:
1) My USB headset's mic
2) The people from Skype
3) My computer's audio

I can stick all those into SoundFlower, but, when doing a live stream, they can hear everything BUT me. This is because my voice isn't actually being outputted through SoundFlower. My workaround is to use Audacity to record my USB headset's mic, and playback what I'm saying while it's recording. This works, but I'll then be hearing myself talking, and there will be a delay, which is VERY annoying.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: How To Live Without Window-shading

Apr 28, 2012

• The answer is "no", Unsanity haxies are unusable with 10.7.x 

• Unsanity isn't showing signs of life and, even if they revive, it may be impossible for a third party to implement haxies in 10.7+ 

• Apple is showing no signs of providing these functions built-in. 

• Some people --including me-- are very frustrated by the lack of some functions formerly provided by these haxies. 

I'm going to concentrate on the most significant issue for me and for at least some of the people on the above-referenced thread:  Windowshading.  How can we live without windowshading in 10.7 and beyond?   Windowshading, long ago, was built in to the Mac OS.   I liked having many, sometimes dozens of files open, easily identifiable, easily restored to full size, arranged on the desktop, generally approximating my workflow, without taking up more than a thin horizontal strip of the desktop for each.   I liked being able to arrange these on the desktop as required by my workflow, especially when things are evolving. 

Since Apple does continue to support windowshading in one 10.7 app --Stickies-- it is clear that this function still has some validity.   Should this give us windowshading-wanters hope? 

Probably not.  I'm guessing that Apple Human Interface designers made a special exception for Stickies, as this app has doesn't save any visible files.   My guess is that the HI folks feel strongly (VERY strongly) that any kind of desktop workflow-representation should be done with the file icons themselves, on the desktop or in folders.  I'm guessing they see the windowshaded representations as bad compromises.  I've also seen some evidence that Apple is going in the direction of reducing the distinction between "open" files and prospectively open ones. (D'oh!  I wish I'd recorded some links to the articles describing this.)   

Well, all in all, it seems we're not going to get windowshading.  Juggling lots of open files all at once?  Organizing according to workflow? What are the current options?   To start: we can shove open windows partly off to the side. That's good for at most 2 or three files per screen edge, left, right, and bottom (with some interference from the Dock) and isn't necessarily so helpful as left and right-shoved files are likely difficult to identify as their titles fall off-screen.  

Shrinking to the dock?  Yeah, that works -- but in my view only for a very limited number of files.     What about using the solution the HI folks seem to be pushing for, organizing the file icons on the desktop or inside folders?   Credit where credit is due:  for image files in folders, in cases in which the file icon is a representation of the image, with Finder View-->Show View Options-->Show icon preview  enabled,  the HI folks have provided a brilliant solution:  just use the icon size slider at lower right as necessary.  For most images I've worked with, the icon preview can easily be made big enough to recognize and sort each image.  None of the image files need be open. Cool.   

For me this applies less well to non-image files.   Text: I'm imagining sorting hundreds of short files each with a brief bit of text inside (e.g. quotes)  all formatted at 9 point.  I don't think this will work so well: for me, such text isn't readable even at maximum icon magnification.   I simply don't have enough experience with miscellaneous files that don't fit in these categories.  Do "minor" 3rd party apps provide icon preview images?  (Full disclosure: just now is the first time I've even tried this with non-image files. D'oh!) Another approach that works for me is to use Mission Control and multiple Desktops/Workspaces.  In general, this gives me access to many more  open files in workflow-related groups.   In my opinion, Mission Control still needs some improvements, and I understand it doesn't work for everyone.

ITunes :: How To Use Smart Playlist With Live Updating

Jul 25, 2010

I am trying to figure out how the live updating feature on smart playlists works.

I created a simple smart playlist with one rule "Media Kind is Music". I ticked the box to "limit to 25 items selected by random". I also ticked the box for "live updating". When I clicked OK to save the smart playlist, iTunes selected 25 songs from my music library and put them in the smart playlist. I then synced the smart playlist to my iPhone. The same 25 songs appeared in the smart playlist on my iPhone. So far, so good.

Then I played a number of the songs in the smart playlist on my iPhone. I also played songs from the smart playlist in iTunes on my MacBook Pro. I exited and re-entered iTunes multiple times. I re-synced my iPhone several times as well. And guess what? The smart playlist, both in iTunes and on the iPhone, still contains the same list of 25 songs that were selected when I first created the smart playlist.
