What is a SIT file and how do i place or open it in logic

hi..i just got a sit file for a program to be used in logic pro 7.2...how do i open it or where do i place it?...can anyone assist?

.sit files are kind of like .zip files in the way that they are compressed data. You need stuffit expander, which I think comes with every Mac to open them, and then the original file will be placed on your desktop, or wherever you tell it to.

What is a "corrupt file" and how do I get rid of it?

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and (hopefully) offering a solution! At the end of this past March, I purchased a new ASUS E4109 from Best Buy. It has been working great until 2 days ago when I turned it on. The black screen popped up stating that Windows had failed to run and I needed to install my installation disk (did this come with my laptop?). It gave the options of retrying in normal mode, safe mode, safe mode with networks, etc, etc. When I was finally able to load it in normal mode, it immediately told me I have some sort of corrupt file and need to run "CHKDSK" to repair. Hmmmm for starters, I dont even know what that means. Anyways, the bottom line is that something is wrong with it and I cant seem to figure out how to repair it without making another trip to BestBuy. I would SO greatly appreciate any suggestions to repair, as well as why this happened in the first place. I dont download anything out of the ordinary ( that I know of!) and I cant imagine what could have happened. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me if you can.... it's a huge upset that I have a brand new laptop I cannot even use at the moment. I sincerely appreciate any help, suggestions, advice!! Thankyou, Whitney

ASUS laptops do come with recovery discs. There should be two of them labeld as such.
To do a disc check, open My Computer, right click on your C drive and select properties.
Click on the Tools tab, and then check box "Automatically Fix Errors" and click Start. You'll most likely have to restart your computer for it to finish.
Corrupted files can be caused by a lot of things, most commonly not shutting your laptop down correctly by just holding the power button. Viruses can also cause them but we'll go with the assumption that's not it for now.
If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

What is a .vob file and how can I play it in Quicktime Player?

I have a video file .vob. I can play it in VLC, but I would like to be able to play it in Quicktime. Do I need to change its file type? And to what? And how?

What is an .acv file and how do you use it in PS?

I downloaded a PDF about using curve adjustments to compensate for evaluating prints under 3500K SoLux halogen lighting relative to using a monitor calibrated to 5000K for editing. (by John Paul Caponigro). Along with the download came a file named "correctforhalogen.acv" but there is no mention of it in the PDF.
I know this file has something to do with doing a quick curves adjustment for color correction, but it doesn't appear to be an actions file. Does anyone know what .acv files are exactly and how you implement them in PS? Thanks.

Thanks Wade.
That did the trick, once I figured out the missing step. For other folks interested, to use an .acv file to adjust a curve:
Open the Curves Adjustment Panel > Panel Options drop-down menu > Load Curves Preset... > find & select the .acv file (on hard drive) in the "LOAD" window > click LOAD. The adjustment in the .acv file will be applied to the image and appear in the curves graph of the Curves Adjustment Panel. Slick.
Apparently, moving the .acv file to the "Curves" folder in the "Presets" folder allows this curve adjustment to be a permanent preset choice. It can then be found under the Curves Panel preset drop-down menu. Just look for the original .acv file's name in the list.

What are these random files and how do i stop them?

I just bought my macbook pro about a month ago so I'm new to it. But recently, Ive noticed that randome movie files and pictures have been showing up under the "all documents" button in finder. Some of these pictures I recognize from photobooth, but they were taken on a different computer way before i even purchased this one. And other files like the movie files and some of the pictures are completely random and I've never seen them before. The movie files are short 10 sec films and the photos are just photos. anyone have a clue on whats going on here?

How are u connected, as in ISP, University Network, etc.? I get shares like that too, as my ISP here in Nepal is using some crazy way of sharing connections with customers. I called and asked them once, but they have not clue about Macs. I suspect it's a technician doing some work in the office, who is tapped into the same C1 connection that I am using, but it is a bit disconcerting to see computers you don't know on your Network.
When I teach in Thailand, I am on a university system that will show all the users connected to the same hotspot. That's why I lock down my sharing when there. It's kinda crazy, as I don't really understand all the security settings and what they imply. It would be nice if there were a guide for home/small business Lans on what exactly the settings should be in OSX, but I suppose it's all out there in Google, somewhere...

What is an aac file and how can I get it into itunes?

I have a file full of .aac files that someone gave me to listen to (an audio book) and when I drag and drop the file folder onto the iitunes library (music) it gives me the pretty little plus sign but when I let it go nothing happens and it never appears in itunes. I tried choosing file, add to library but still no actual files ending up in itunes. I am sure it's something simple ... help!

You can probably see them if you go the the default smart playlist in the left pane called "Recently added." You probably can't find them because they have some unknown info to you or it has no info and is at the bottom of your music library.

Reinstall on both.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
     Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                 if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.

What is in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log File and How do I Shrink it?

I know OS X Server uses PostgreSQL now instead of MySQL which is fine by me. I am trying to figure out what is in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log file in Library/Logs/PostgreSQL/ . It is about 188 GB right now and ideally instead of relocating it along with other services to another drive from the nice 256GB SSD that is in the system I would like to understand what is in the database and how to manage it's size better.
Any pointers for best practice on managing the database or what the heck is in it?
Thanks!

Thanks for the response. I mistyped in the question as I understood it was a log file. The DB itself is only about 1-2GB. As for reviewing I am fine with modifying the permissions and examining the file in the console or other app but I am most interested in how to manage it safely. Can I just clear the log contents? If so what is the safe way to do so? I know with many DB's the log file is critical to it's function and if things happen to the log file it can render the DB unusable. In addition what is the best way to modify the rotation routine it uses and set the logging level? (I have pasted the .plist contents for Postgresql for Server Services below)
I have also downloaded and installed pgAdmin but have not gone through the steps of connecting it to the DB and log file (users setup etc.)

time machine: I get the following message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Clemens’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use - what to do? Where and how do I find that file and get rid of it?

I'm on Mountain Lion and have version 6.1 of AirPort utility so there is no button to "Disconnect All Users"and the only other option of "removing and re-selecting the drive via Time Machine Prefs" doesn't work either. So this will work.
Launch Airport Utility and select the TC "Edit" button, then select the Disks tab. Deselect "Enable File Sharing" and click "Update". The TC will reboot then follow the same procedure and reselect "Enable File Sharing" and click "Update". After TC reboots again you'll be up and running. Not the neatest way to do it but saves having to unplug the TC which risks disk damage and the whole procedure takes less than a minute.The "Enable File Sharing" button seems to have replaced the "Disconnect All Users" button but with the slight disadvantage that it reboots the TC which takes up additional time.

What are LRPREV files, and how do I open them?

I uploaded some pictures onto my laptop from my phone. They seem to have disappeared completely, as they are no longer on my phone, in any of my laptop folders (i've checked several times) or my laptop recycling bin. Having said that, many LRPREV files have appeared in a couple of my folders, which I had not seen before. Putting 2 and 2 together, it seems like the photos from the phone may have unintentionally been converted into this file type.
My main problem is that I can't open them, so I can't see them to find out. What are LRPREV files and how can I open them? Otherwise, would I be able to convert them into a file type which I should be able to view?
I would also be grateful if anyone had any suggestions of where my photos may have gone to.
Thanks.

I am no expert but have had LR since LR3. Did you import the photos into your LR catalog? It sounds like you have at least viewed the photos using LR or they would not show up in your LRPREV files. LRPREV files are those that have been at least looked at in LR because LR automatically makes previews (thumbnails) of photos you have actually added to a catalog or at least attempted to import. When you upload photos from your phone what folder do you send them to? Why are the original files no longer on your phone, do you automatically delete photos after you import them? You shouldn't do that until you at least confirm you can see them on your computer and have backed them up to at least a second, preferably offline, location. I would open your LR catalog and look for for a line in your navigation module indicating recent imports? I probably haven't helped you much.

In my storage summary it says other files. It shows 30GB what are these files and how do I remove them

What is meant by article grouping and site grouping and how to define

what is meant by article grouping and site grouping and how to define in SAP.

Hi Charan,
Article Grouping in its broader sense means grouping of Articles for ease of maintenance and business functions, either on the basis of Hierarchy or on the basis of Merchandise Category.Article Grouping is also primarily useful in promotions,wherein you can define a set of articles(which may not necessary fall under the same MC or Hierarchy) and club them together and assign them in a promotion.Txn codes used are : VBG1/2/3 - Create/Change/Display Article Group

Site Grouping is used for ease of maintenance by grouping the sites.It is also used to maintain the characteristics as well.This can also be used in Allocation Tables,promotion and Listing etc
Some of the Txn codes -
WB50 - Site Group,Create Alloc,.table

What is JS.Agent-58 and how do I get rid of it?

Hello. I just ran a ClamXAv scan and it came up with a trojan called JS.Agent-58. It's the weirdest thing because it is in a file I would never expect it to be in. I buy a lot of things online and I do not print my receipts. Instead I save them as PDF files. The Trojan is in a Macy's PDF saved receipt from November. I have no idea how it got there. Anyway, if I delete the receipt, will that be enough. Can somebody tell me what exactly this particular Trojan does and how to tell if it has been downloaded on my computer. And, will someone tell me how to completely remove this Trojan from my computer, if it is indeed on my computer? Please and Thank You.

First a couple of tips:
As I mentioned to the OP, for fastest, most efficient answers to questions such as this, visit the ClamXav Forum.
Secondly, nobody but the OP and I will probably ever see your posting here. Only those who post or choose to follow a discussion will ever notice a new posting. For future issues, if you don't find the answer in an older discussion, then you will always be better off posting a new topic which will attract attention from other troubleshooters who are currently on line. That's just the way the forum works best.

ClamXav has identified a virus which I seem to have gotten in August 2014 called JS Agent-58 that is NOT in my mail but is a Page.webarchive filename. I have rescanned and had it quarantined but what do I do now and how did I get it in the first place?
I would need to know where it came from originally in order to have any idea how you got it. That information may still be in you scan log, so here is how to find it:
In ClamXav open the Scan Log by clicking the icon on the tool bar
When the "clamXav-scan.log" (or "ClamXav-scan.log" for the App Store version) window opens, you will only be looking at the only the most recent results
Select Find->Find from the Edit menu or type Command-F
Type "FOUND" in all caps and without the quotes in the Find box
Uncheck the "Ignore case" box and hit enter
Click the "Next" button or type Command-G until you find what you are looking for
If it doesn't show up in the most recent results, use the "▲ Earlier|" button in the lower right corner of the window to move back through the log.
Copy the entire line and paste it into a reply back here.
There is an easier way to do this using the Terminal app, but I would need to know which version of ClamXav (App Store or web site) you used to find it.
Be sure you read general guidance in Dealing with infected files. Moving it to quarantine has disabled it. You should probably make sure this isn't a file you need before moving it to the Trash Can, but that would be next. It's always possible this is a false alarm, but I doubt it.
Hopefully you have already read my analysis of what this is and understand there is close to zero chance it could affect your computer.
