View 1 Replies View RelatedI love the Apple Notes App on my iPhone because it has the ability to sync seamlessly with my MacBook Pro.Â
I prefer to use the Apple Notes App cause they sync seamlessly for me between devices (I don't want to use another program like Sticky Notes or such.)Â
I was wondering if it is possible to create a shortcut on my Dock (or desktop or keyboard shortcut to launch?) to these notes directly so I don't have to keep opening up the Apple Mail Client (Which I do not use)?Â
Info:
Notes, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
I would like to modify the dock to display specific installed applications. I then want this dock to be the default dock for any users that log in.
OS is Mavericks.All users are AD users.No server management.We use Deep Freeze to revert the Mac to the way we set it up.Â
I can find info for previous versions of OSX; basically just copying the plist, but I can't find anything that works for Mavericks.Â
So I started using my MacBook Pro as a device I connect to my TV. I have an HDMI adapter, and, after setting up the display and sound, it is awesome! I even purchased a Trackpad so I can sit on my couch and navigate. The cost of the adapter and Trackpad are more than paid for with my canceling of cable.Â
Anyway, my question is about the virtual keyboard in OS X. It doesn't happen often, but I sometimes have to type in a user name or password for sites. I know how to go through "System Preferences", "Universal Access", and then "Keyboard Preferences" to turn it on, but is there a faster way?Â
What I really want to know is if I can create a shortcut in my dock for the virtual keyboard?Â
If not, does anyone know of any third party, virtual keyboard applications that would work this way?Â

I want to create a disk image of a Mac drive (.dmg file).I figured that it might not be a good idea to try and image a live disk, so I unmounted it (the user dragged the disk icon to the eject icon), and I confirmed it was unmounted by looking at /Volumes. To be clear here, this isn't the boot volume, that is /dev/disk0./dev/disk1 is an internal drive - as it happens it's the original drive for this OSX 10.4 G5, AND /Volumes/HITACHI is the mount point for an external USB drive.I have tried this twice.On both occassions, things seemed to go well, but after a few minutes (about 10 - 20 minutes), I observed that the target file on /Volumes/HITACHI stopped growing, then a bunch of unpleasant stuff started to happen:
* I did lsof /Volumes/HITACHI/MacHD_20120201.dmg and found the PID of the diskimage binary, ps waux showed it was doing nothing (CPU% was 0.0). This indicates a stuck process to me.
* The hdutil command stopped producing '.'
* I could not cancel the hduitl command
* I could not rm the MacHD_20120201.dmg file
* I could not ls the /Volumes/HITACHI directory
* unlink also hung
A little further into this, the Mac became unresponsive. I observed that the disk was now mounted again (grrr!). As a work around I switched the USB drive off and on, and Mac came good - all my terminals started to respond, the GUI responded for the user.My workaround has been to use CCC to make a clone of the disk - but I don't like this because I think .dmg files are much more convenient (for a start, now that I've used CCC I can't use the USB drive for anything else).
* Is my methodology wrong? Do I really need to umount the /dev/disk1
* Can you disable finder from automounting an internal hard drive (I am particularly interested in this)Â

I've been trying to change my docks theme for the past few days but have been unable. I've used Candybar, Dock Library etc. and none of them seem to work. I'm really annoyed because it used to work for me. Any suggestions on how I can remedy this problem?
View 7 Replies View RelatedToday the OS X dock on my late '08 MacBook Pro 15" stop working like normal. It used to be, when an App was open, the icon would appear in the dock with a sort of highlight.
Now, the apps run fine but no longer appear in the dock. If I minimize it, it does show as a running app in the left hand side, but that isn't what I want it to do. Is there a quick way to get it to work again?
Very suddenly my dock has disappeared, (and occasionally reappears), and is now completely non-useable. Why..? I have created other accounts on my computer previously and the dock on those is fine...I have looked in Activity monitor and it flashes on and then disappears in there.I tried using terminal to 'killall Dock', but this did nothing...Am using Leopard on Alu iMac.
So i changed the color of my dock with dock doctor and i tried to change it back to default but it wont do it. Any ideas?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI purchased an app online, and seeing as they had an option to download the app, I downloaded it. (I do believe I still have available to me the option of the cd to be shipped, but I'm not sure) Now I need to use it in a way that requires it to be booted off a cd... The software downloaded was in a disk image format. Are there any specific instructions/steps I need to take in order to ensure that I produce a bootable cd? I'd hate to waste a perfectly good CD-R by a stupid mistake of making it non-bootable.

Im pretty sure these are issues related to Automator, but through my hours of trolling the web, I havn't found anyplace to download automator actions.
Is there a way to restore automator actions and/or filters?
I am trying to figure out what the best way is to create a bootable DVD frm a DMG file?
Upon first purchasing Leopard 10.5 way back when it came out, I decided to back up the disk on my computer by creating a Disk Image. Turns out it was a good move because now that I need the disc, it seems to have picked up a big scratch on it's surface, and it simply refuses to mount at this point...
I can use either Toast or Disk Utility to accomplish this task (or the terminal if absolutely necessary, but I would really prefer using one of the GUIs I've just mentioned). I was hoping someone would be gracious enough to provide me with instructions on what would be the best way to create a bootable DVD from this DMG file.
I am thinking of creating a second user on my MacPro for a special project I am doing with itunes. The reason for doing so is tho keep these music library separate. I know how to creat the user but I am wondering when I am done is there any harm in deleting the second user. I know I need to copy off the files but will my OS X installation be compromised in any way.

I have followed this page up until the point where I go to Finder > Go > Connect to Server. After this, I do not see any way of creating a ssh connection. Instead there are only some options to choose from e.g. afp, nfs, smb, etc.I am using a RSA public key currently for SSH connection via Terminal.

Using Boot Camp Assistant to create a Microsoft partition on my MacMini. It requires a MS-DOS formated disk to download Apple/Microsoft files. I am using a 'remote disk' from a networked PC (works for everything else). Disk Utility does not recognise the remote disk unless it is formated, and the only formate available on the PC is UDF. With the DVD-RW disk formated in UDF, Boot Camp recognises the disk, but Disk Utility will not format it.Â

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen we share internet connection through ad-hoc wireless network, each individual connecting to our network will be assigned with an unique IP Address and other required fields will be filled with proper data(Gateway and ..).
I used this feature to access my iPad through wifi, and had no intention of sharing an internet connection.
Now that I don't have an internet connection to share, my computer doesn't give any IP to my device, therefore my computer is unable to see my iPad on the network.
I also tried "Create network" feature of mac, but again, since IP addresses have been assigned by self, I'm not able to see my iPad on the network.
I remember back in the days of System 7 that you could literally copy and paste everything from one hard drive to another hard drive, and you could boot off the second hard drive.
Just today, I bought a used PowerBook G4 12-inch model (a veeeeeeeeeeeery old model, but still in good shape) and it's in OS X. Is backing up a la System 7 style still possible in OS X or should I try to figure out how to create a partition in my external 1TB HDD I have connected to my Windows 7 desktop?
