OS X V10.7 Lion :: Safely Use Non-app Store Software ?

Jun 27, 2012

I need to download some other software made by some small companies or individuals, that is not available on the app store, and is not digitally signed. It is not free (price), and is not open source (so I cannot determine all the things it does).If I install the software in a different user account on my mac, will the software still be able to access files in any of my other user accounts ?To install the software it asks for the administrator password.

The software is widely used within a niche market, and so far no one has reported any complaints. But at the same time it is a niche market, and if there is a practice I can follow to safely use this software and not compromise my mac, then I would like to do that.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Adobe Flash Player: Can Use It Safely

Apr 19, 2012

Lion 10.7.3 on a new mac mini. I learned about the Flashback trojan virus,  I disabled Java in Safari preferences as per tech articles, I have all the updates including the Flashback removal tool. I go to NPR.org to listen to some audio podcasts as well as other news articles and I get a notice "You need to install Adobe Flash Player v.8 to view item." My understanding is Java is needed for me to use Adobe Flash Player using Safari on my new mac mini Will I ever be able to view these numerous sites requiring Adobe Flash safely with my new Apple computer?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Won't Download - Software May Have Been Tampered With Or Corrupted During Download?

Apr 12, 2012

Says the software may have been tampered with or corrupted during download.  I am NOT some computer hack, just a regular guy who bought a simple product to download and it doesn't work.  Total BS and waste of my time.  I'm not interested in saving my download to an ext HD, or partitioning my HD, or some other funky work-around.  I want to know why this software will not load straight away as advertised? I have S/L, v 10.6.8 and the required RAM and disc space.

MacBook Pro :: Safely Interchange Laptop Components?

Jun 3, 2012

I have a broken MBP that wont boot, repair is too expensive so I will be buying a new one.  I plan on changing out the hard drive (because it has 500 GB capacity) and also the ram (total of 6 GB's) and putting them into my new notebook of the same year and model.  However I am curious: if there is a problem with one of these components (hard drive, ram) is there a chance that it can infect the new computer?  I don't know much about computers in this regard and I don't want to transfer and issue from my old MBP (Which repairer's said could be a bad video graphic card but they are not sure).

OS X Yosemite :: How To Safely Eject 2 TB Seagate External Hard Drive

Dec 7, 2014

How do I safely "eject" my 2 TB Seagate external hard drive after backing my Mac Air onto it? I need to update my operating software, never had since I first got it. So I bought the Seagate HD, plugged it in and Time Machine just started running. Now I'd really like to be able to confirm that my entire machine backed up completely, and I think it is best to unplug the hard drive before upgrading the OS...is that right?
