Can xorg-clock open in the dock instead of lal?

I use openbox + docker + lal (which opens in the dock). Could I substitute lal with xorg-clock?
Thank you

You can go to settings in your Gmail, select your account, and scroll down to the bottom where you can check the box for Download attachments. This isn't directly saving the file to the phone, but it is allowing it to download temporarily so that you can view it. If you are referencing the stock email app, I'm not sure as I don't use that app any longer.

I can't connect to the drive on my airport time machine and am receiving the message: "AirPort Time Capsule" can't be opened because the original item can't be found.

Time capsule has been working perfectly for months.
Suddenly I can't connect to the drive on my airport time capsule and am receiving the message: “AirPort Time Capsule” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.
Time machine appears to be still backing up (last backup within the last hour), but drive is not visible and I have files stored on it.
I have tried rebooting everything in order as suggested for other issues, anyone got any ideas how to see the drive again??

What OS are you running??
It is very typical Yosemite issue.
1. In airport utility does the TC show up.. if so click it.. and see the summary page which will include its IP address. That is what you are after.
From my screenshot you can see the TC address is 192.168.2.57
It might well show up briefly after a reboot or in ipad / iphone version utility. Yosemite is hopeless. The airport utility hardly works.
2. In Finder use Go, Connect to server.
Type in SMB://192.168.2.57 (replace with IP you discover).
If it is possible it will request a password.. type that in and DO NOT FORGET.. to store it in your keychain.
This will work until the TC changes IP which won't happen if it is main router.. but will happen if it is bridged.. so you need to tell me the whole network setup.
Mavericks is nearly as bad and the above instructions should be universal except I would use AFP instead of SMB. Apparently Yosemite is now totally Windows oriented.

My imovie opens in the dock, but then disappears off the screen - top right hand side, What's happening?

Hi
iMovie opens in the dock, but then seems to disappear off to the top right hand side of the screen and I can't find a way of recovering it? Suggestions please

Hi
If You press cmd+tab keys (cmd = the one with a cringle) (tab = left side keyboard third row big arrow pointing to the right)
By keeping cmd-key down and stepping with tab-key You can see if the iMovie symbol show up. then release.
Did it come back ?

Mail won't open from the dock

Hi. Since upgrading to Mavericks Mail and Safari wont open from the dock. Even if the apps are open. I have to right click and select "New viewer window"
The net result is I end up with several open windows, but even if I click "bring all to front" nothing happens.

Hi, I tried that before, did not work.
Found this on another page. Problem solved.
Great news, in that case this is user a specific issue which we should be able to resolve by moving one plist.
*Note read the instructions carefully and ask quesitons if you don't understand something.
First > Create a folder on your desktop so we can backup the plist that we removing that was it can be put back if anything... Call it Dock Plist
Second > Open a Finder windows > up on the menu bar click on "Go" > Hold the option key on your keyboard and you should see Library come up click on it... This will place you inside your user specific Library folder aka ~/Library...
Third > Go into Preferences folder > locate a file called com.apple.dock.plist and drap/drop into the folder you created on the desktop
Fourth > Click on the Apple (top left) > Logout... Log back and test it. The system automatically creates a new com.apple.dock.plist with no settings so your dock will go back to default, test mail and see if that resolves the issue.

Can not add items to the dock

I can not add icons to the dock, I am able SOMETIMES to edit the dock (moving icons around or delete them), there is no rule, sometimes I can grab the icon on the dock, and sometimes I just can't (I have the pop up when I can't) , I deleted users/username/library/preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and issued a killall dock command, with no difference.
any help will be appreciated

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The Dock did not return to default on that command?
Try again and also delete username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
If it's still no-go create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the Dock in this new account, if it works the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
Let us know.
EDIT: Also are you running any enhancement software?

I am trying to install the driver for a Wacom Bamboo Pad. The dmg from Wacom downloadsand will opens, but when I try to install it the message "Install Wacom Tablet.pkg" can't be opened because the Identity of the developer cannot be conﬁrmed"

iMac late 2009 3,06GHz Intel Core Duo; 500gb hard drive, 12gb memory. OS X 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion)
'“Install Wacom Tablet.pkg" can't be opened because the Identity of the developer cannot be conﬁrmed.'
I have been trying to install the driver for a Wacom Bamboo Pad. There are several driver packages listed on the website (the device is supplied ready to run with Windows devices) and I have tried tried downloading all the available drivers which apply to my set-up. Some will not open at all and I get a 'Damaged' message on my screen. Of the ones which open, I can download the .dmg and expand it but when clicked it opens as a window with multiple choice of languages and an icon which instructs you to click to open.
If I do this some versions repeat the 'damaged' message but the later ones generate a window saying:-
'“Install Wacom Tablet.pkg" can't be opened because the Identity of the developer cannot be conﬁrmed.' - this is as far as I can get it to go; most frustrating!
I understand that Apple's security updates have recently included an alteration that causes this result, and that there is supposed to be a legal (i.e. Apple sanctioned) workaround to allow files like this to be opened. If this is so, can anyone enlighten me?

Many Thanks, Kurt.
I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

Time Capsule / Leopard 10.5.8 / Time Machine / Disk can't be opened because the original item can't be found / OSStatus error -6602

Hi,
I'm facing a big issue with Time Machine on my Mac Book running Leopard 10.5.8 (build 9L31a) and my Time Capsule (firmware 7.6.1 (76100.4)).
I have searched a lot (during 3 days !!) to find a solution but no luck !
I have the same syntoms as described by LUNY in this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9364556#9364556
To quickly summarize:
My MacBook was configured to use my Time Capsule as backup disk. Everything went fine during 2 years and then one day I suddently got problems with time machine !
Time Machine was unable to access my Time Capsule. Moreover it was drastically slowing down my MacBook !
So:
1. I stopped Time Machine and tried to change the backup disk: every time I chose my Time Capsule Disk, I got a OSStatus error -6602
2. Then, I tried to access my Time Capsule from the Finder -> slow and then got this message 'Disk can't be opened because the original item can't be found'
3. I searched in the logs for the specific reason and I found:
   - system.log (/var/log) :
      myMacBook kernel[0]: disk0s2: I/O error.
      myMacBook /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder[198]: NetworkNode::handleMountCallBack returned -6602 (the same error)
      myMacBook ReportCrash[358]: Saved crashreport to /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/kextload_2012-12-30-112946_myMacBook.crash using uid: 0 gid: 0, euid: 0 egid: 0
   - In CrashReporter (/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/): i see the problem coming from kextload with this exception:
       Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
       Exception Codes: 0x000000000000000a, 0x000000000122d000
4. I tried to mount the time capsule disk with Terminal (AFP protocol):
   > mount -t afp afp://admin:[email protected]/Data /Volumes/termAFPData/
   result -> mount_afp: AFPMountURL returned error 19, errno is 19
These errors (6602 and 19) are neither documented anywhere nor associated to a clear description of the problem. The only thing I have found is that errno 19 is an IO error -> http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/CarbonHeaders/CarbonHeaders-18.1/MacError s.h
On the other hand, and this is the really weird part of the issue, my time capsule disk works well when I mount it with SMB protocol !!! (Or when I access it with a Windows XP machine).
So, the workaround is: mount -t smbfs //admin:[email protected]/Data /Volumes/termSMBData/
Or, in Finder -> Connect to server and there use the URL: smb://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Data
Not sure what is going on ... but I pretty sure that's a bug and not a hardware problem.
Is there someone who has already found a solution for this kind of behaviour ?
It would avoid me a lot of headaches and improve the support for this kind of problem.
Thanks !!!

Thanks a lot for this really quick reply.
When you say: "I would though go back to 7.5.2 firmware." Do you mean a reset to factory default ?
Greetz
NO, your time capsule is running 7.6.1 but it is built with AFP following increased security for LION.. that is not required or available in Leopard.. so there is no point.. it is also not as stable on the older hardware.. at least in my experience.. I have repaired about 200 of the suckers so I do see a few.
When you select firmware update in the airport utility.. hold the option key.. all valid firmware versions for your TC then show up.. not only upgrades.. select 7.5.2 and upgrade to that.
Do a factory reset when you do it is a good idea though.. start off again.
And do reset of TM.. A4 in pondini.
See if it helps.
Oh, the TC will continually complain about needing a firmware update.. turn off automatic checking of updates.. it will still annoy you for fun every few weeks but that is better than daily.

Please help! The alias can't be opened because the original item can't be found. Portable Hard Drive, Macbook, OS 10.7

Hi folks,
Desperate for some help!
I have a very cluttered, slow Macbook Pro running 10.7.5. Bought a 2TB WD My Passport for Mac (2TB) with the intention of transferring my many, many files and folders over to it, to increase my memory and boost the performance of my Macbook. (Also handy to have files on the go).sktop
I transferred everything (all files off desktop, documents, photos etc) using drag and drop.
Then I trashed all the files, but did NOT empty Trash because I wanted to check the process had worked
Now, when I plug in my hard drive, and open it up, all my files and folders are there, but with little arrows on the bottom left of the file/folder. When I go to open any one of them, I get this message:
"The alias “X” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found."
I don't know what to do. Is this because of the way I dragged and dropped the files? I'm guessing so. Or is it because I still have the items in my Trash? (I'm obviously petrified of emptying the Trash now though) Is it because of my OS?
Apologies, I'm a novice to this (hence why my 4 year old mbp is running so slowly; it's got 4 year's worth of work on it, and now I obviously don't even know how to transfer files properly to an external HD) but I'd really be ever so grateful for your help. I just want to successfully back up my files to this HD so my mpb runs faster. I'm now terrified I've corrupted my files. I don't even understand what an Alias is.
Would love to hear from you! I'm totally new to these forums so hope I've posted right! Thanks!

It sounds like what got created on your external is a collection of aliases which point to the original files and folders but aren't actually copies of the files and folders themselves. The original items have been moved to the trash so even if they could be found, they couldn't be opened. As a test, pick a file (not a folder) on the external that should be large and see what size it actually is (Get Info). Aliases are smaller so you can tell the difference apart from that little arrow (the Get Info box will also identify the file as an alias). Dragging the files to the external should have automatically created copies rather than aliases unless you held down the Command and Option keys while dragging.
In any case, you were wise not to empty the trash; to be safe get those important files back out of the Trash so you can start over. But this time, try moving a few at a time and let us know what happens.

First:
 (Apple menu) > System Preferences > Users & Groups > select your account > Login Items.
Determine if that program appears in that list. If it does, select it and then remove it from Login Items with the "–" (minus) button.
Next:
Select the entire line that follows (triple-click to select it), then control-click, and from the contextual menu that appears, select Services > Open:
/Library/StartupItems/
If the program or an alias to it appears in that folder, drag it to the Trash.
Next:
When you log out or shut down your Mac, de-select the checkbox that begins with the words "Reopen windows... "

The alias "Harddisk" can't be opened because the original item can't be fou

Hello all,
I have a very scary problem. My external 1.5 Tb Toshiba does not connect anymore. I used to have it connect to my MacBookPro through the Airport Extreme USB connection. Then I wanted to delete a folder, earlier today, and ever since, the harddisk will not mount correctly. That is, every second or third time I click on the alias (in the left area of the Finder Window), it will open and show me the files. I also successfully managed to delete some other files and folders. But, the folder in question caused Finder to start relaunching again and again and again. The only solution was to force the computer to restart, as the Relaunching Finder through CMT-CTRL-ESC didn't bring anything.
I then disconnected the Toshiba from the Airport Extreme, and connected it directly to my MBP. The computer understands that the harddrive is connected, the harddrive sounds and behaves completely normally, and Disk Utility claims everything is okay. Data Rescue 3 claims I deleted some folder in the year 2076, on this very date, 8th May (which in 2076 is a Friday, apparently). I don't know if that has something to do with it?
But the MBP won't let me access the harddrive. I click on the alias to the left (or double-click on the disc icon on my Desktop) and the message in the subject above will appear: The alias 'Airdisk' can't be opened because the original item can't be found".
If I choose to Delete Alias, the following message appears: The Item "Airdisk" can't be moved to the Trash because it can't be deleted.
I I choose to Fix Alias, the standard window in which I can find the normal path appears, causing a loop, since I will get the same message when I click on the disc icon again...
Clicking OK doesn't bring anything. Nothing opens, and I am in the path I was when I started the clicking.
Spotlight works wonderfully. I can search for data on my Toshiba, Spotlight will find it, but there is no link in the bottom part of the window. I can't even Open Enclosing Folder, through right-clicking on any resulting file in Spotlight.
But the Harddrive is well and active.
Does anyone please, please have any idea what I can do to make it behave normally again. And not least how to get rid of that folder.
Please don't tell me I have to reformat it...please?

Thanks for the reply.
I did what you said and can confirm that there is a link to the hard drive under /Volumes/. However, where the links to my two partitions will take me directly to the partitions (Apple and Bootcamp), the Toshiba one will only show a Preview stating the Size of the disk (which incidentally, it states as being the size occupied.
I tried deleting this Alias, but do not have the permission: "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items".
So I went back to Computer, got Info on the Toshiba and tried changing the Sharing & Permissions. Currently I have custom access:
admin: Read & Write
system: Read & Write
Erik (Me): Read & Write
everyone: Read only
I used to also have (I deleted it):
wheel: Read & Write
I also made Erik (Me) the owner of the disk. I also tried ticking and unticking "ignore ownership on this volume".
On my internal harddrive, Get Info states that I can "read and write". Nothing about Custom Access.
In Disk Utility, when selecting my Airdisk (the only partition under 'Toshiba', there are apparently No owners enabled, and I am not allowed to verify or repair permissions under the First Aid tab.
I notice this, because my internal (Apple partition) does have Owners Enabled and I am allowed to Verify and Repair disk permissions.
Any ideas?
I can unmount it and mount it, but still no difference.

The alias "Lacie2" can't be opened because the original item can't be found

A very strange problem just developed. I have a Time Capsule with two external drives attached to it (they are actually two drives in a single enclosure) via USB. When I navigate to the drives, an alias is placed on the desktop. When I click on the alias, I get the message, "The alias “Lacie2” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found." (I get the same message for the other drive, "Lacie1"). Now, here's the kicker: when I navigate through to the drives in a Finder window, everything is fine! I can access the drives and all contents. I do NOT get this same problem when I navigate to the Time Capsule itself, i.e., the alias placed on my desktop to the TC works fine when clicked. One more bit of information, the enclosure containing the two apparently misbehaving drives accidentally came unplugged a few days ago, so the drives spun down without being unmounted, etc. However, I don't use the drives every day, so I am not even sure they were mounted at the time. Also, I can't be certain this current problem started IMMEDIATELY thereafter, again because I don't access the drives every day and just can't remember.
I have opened "Volumes" and cleaned out all the ghost/phantom drives in there, and it did not help (none of the ghosts referenced either of these drives). In case it makes a difference, I am booting the 64-bit kernel. Any ideas?

I checked /Volumes again, but no ghost drives. When I select one of the aliases on the desktop and enter command+i, here is what the "server" field says in the popup:
afp://Time Capsule Kay.afpovertcp.tcp.local/Lacie2
When I open a finder window and navigate to the drive, here is the path to one of the folders there:
afp://Time Capsule Kay.afpovertcp.tcp.local/Lacie2/Steve
I don't know if this makes any difference, but when I mount that same drive on my G4 running OS X 10.4, the path is different:
afp://Time-Capsule-Kay.local./Lacie2
The G4 has always been plugged into the TC that the drives in question are also plugged into. Until recently, the MacBook Pro that is giving me the problems connected to my network via AirPort. It is now connected via Ethernet, plugged into an AirPort Extreme which the TC feeds off of via Ethernet as well. Perhaps that's why the paths are different.

"The alias can't be opened because the original item can't be found"

Hello,
I use many alias folders to take advantage of copy.com applications feature which allows you to have aliases in the "Copy" folder (i.e. Dropbox doesn't) and sync them with the cloud. It's an easy backup solution.
My problem is that very often most of these aliases stop working. Double clicking pops out the message "The alias can't be opened because the original item cant' be found" even if the original file/files have never been moved neither renamend.
Googling and searching in the forum suggested to check and fix premissions with disk utility. I did it but nothing was solved. I use to do this every week since I noticed that Disk Utility always find something corrupted.
What can I do?
I have a mbp mid 2009 with ML 10.8.5.
I don't know if the hdd is going to fail (since utility disk always find something wrong), is there someway to test it?
Thanks for your help,
Andrea

As an experiment, pick some sample Aliases that seem to constantly break, and replace them with symbolic links (a Unix feature).
Either do this via an Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal session
ln -s "drag_and_drop_file_or_folder_from_finder_here" "drag_and_drop_destination_folder_here"
Or get a GUI utility to make symlinks
<https://www.macupdate.com/find/mac/symlink>
Now see if the symlinks work and do not get corrupted.
If Symlinks work long term, then replace the rest of the Aliases you are using for copy.com with symlinks.

The alias can't be opened because the original item can't be found - After USB Flash Drive transfer

I've seen a couple of threads about this message, but none dealing with my simple issue:
I get this message: "The alias can't be opened because the original item can't be found" -- AFTER TRANSFERRING THE FILE IN QUESTION VIA FLASH DRIVE.
I thought, maybe the "original item" hadn't been completely copied from the drive, so I tried opening the file again this time with the drive still plugged into the laptop--but again, the message came up and I couldn't open it.
What's the deal?
The files I'm transferring:
a 1.2GB MKV file of a movie I downloaded, which I had no trouble viewing on my desktop
a 105MB application
(btw, the application is called "VLC", which is a file playing app that works on my desktop, and I want it on my laptop so that I can play movie files like .mkv, which is the other file I'm transferring...but that doesn't make any difference, I think. No, I can't just download the movie and the app right onto the laptop...I don't have wifi right now...='[...)

I had been dragging straight from the desktop into the USB window. Eventually, I opened up finder and went to Desktop there, and when I dragged the files from there into the USB window, it worked. Now it took a while to move the files into the USB, which was a sign that they were actually being moved.

Can xorg-clock open in the dock instead of lal?
