Airport -s command in terminal

What does the "CC" and "US" mean in the airport-s command output? See below:
Macintosh:~ Lenny$ airport -s
                      SSID               BSSID                RSSI CHANNEL HT   CC    SECURITY (auth/unicast/group)

Probably United States, as each country has their specific legal output threshold.

How to delete a command in Terminal?

Months ago I tried to sync ical via Dropbox, which required entering a command in Terminal. Now I'd like to reverse the action. How do I go about deleting or countermanding this command? Thanks.

Based on the symlink you created long ago, your calendar directory is currently stored in Dropbox. If you want to keep your calendar data you will need to move it back to ~/Library/Calendars.
To be on the safe side use the ls command to see which is the symlink and which is the real directory:
ls -ld ~/Library/Calendars ~/Dropbox/Calendars
The one that starts with L and contains 2 file paths as in
lrwxr-xr-x 1 username group 9 Dec 4 2011 /Users/username/Library/Calendars -> /Users/username/Dropbox/Calendars
is the symbolic link
The one that starts with D is the real calendars directory, for example:
drwxr-xr-x 1 username group 9 Dec 4 2011 /Users/username/Dropbox/Calendars
NOTE: I strongly suggest you have a current backup before you use the 'rm' command below. One mistake with 'rm' (remove, aka delete) and you can loose data that you are not going to get back.
To remove the symlink, and put your calendar data back where iCal expects to find it, use the following commands:
rm ~/Library/Calendars
mv ~/Dropbox/Calendars ~/Library/
The rm command is removing the symlink you created.
The mv command is moving your calendars information to ~/Library where iCal expects to find it.

Can I use the pfctl command in Terminal to throttle bandwidth?

The ISP I use (Northwestel) limits my upstream bandwith to 2 Mbps. While I upload at that maximum rate, the download service is disabled.
Plus, if I upload at that maximum rate for any sustained period of time (sustained being longer than about 5 minutes), my entire service is disabled and requires that I reset the modem to start it again.
As you can imagine, this is very frustrating. Especially when you consider I pay $125 a month for the service.
Very few apps offer an option to manually throttle upload speeds. Dropbox, for example, does. But Apple's PhotoStream does not.
So I'm looking for a way to globally throttle upload speeds on my Mac to a rate less than 2 Mbps so that I can avoid the above-described problems.
This has led me to the pfctl command in Terminal, which – from what I've read – would allow me to set an upload rate maximum limit in the Mac OS Mavericks firewall. The problem is, I'm a novice command line user and so can't figure out how to compose a command properly.
Does anyone know how to compose a pfctl command that would enable me to limit the upstream bandwidth rate on my Mac to about 1 Mbps?
Alternatively, is anyone aware of another way to globally set an upstream bandwidth rate limit on a Mac, perhaps a utility or app?
Any input or thoughts will be gratefully accepted.

There are gui apps for this. Apple has one.

Ifconfig command in Terminal

When I issue "ifconfig" command in Terminal, it does not give the IP address of the network interface. I use Ethernet connection for the Mac Pro (late 2013). However, the output of ifconfig does not show the IP address.
Is there anything I should know about using ifconfig command in Terminal? Thanks.

Perfectly clear, but not clear that you are certain you have an internet connection. You can use an interface normally, but not be connected at the moment you ran the command.
If I run it on mine, all interfaces are displayed. Those with a connection have inet addresses. Those not connected have no inet fields.
If it is being hidden for some reason, you might find the why in the man page.

.DS_Store files undo delete command in Terminal

I was copying large quantities of files to a poorly formatted LaCie 3T external drive and kept coming up with interruptions in copying because the Finder kept "seeing" the creation of .DS_Store files. I researched and found a command for Terminal which stopped the OS from creating .DS_Store files. I restarted my laptop and sure enough, no more .DS files are being created.
I was then able to complete the massive transfer, I reformatted the drive, and returned all of the files to the 3T drive. Now everything's working alright.
My question is... How do I return the creation of .DS_Store files back to normal?
Can anyone drop me a line that I can insert into the terminal command line and get it done?
Thanks in advance.

You know, I did that, and nothing happened. So I then decided to re-install M.L., and I'm now manufacturing .DS_Store files with abandon.
I've been reading that it's not a popular kind of file for folks, especially those who are working with variously formatted devices. There are some obscure advantages to having the files sit around the hard drive.
Thanks for your advice, however. It's good to know that I wasn't so far off.

What is command in terminal to see host in my LAN?

I want to see all the host in my LAN with there IP address and MAC address. Is it possible using terminal command window? If it is, what is command in terminal to see it? If not, is there any other method to do this?

If you want to a more detailed set of counters, the command is "sh controller ethernet <BLAH>".

Setenv command in terminal.

Hello,
I'm using the unix "setenv" command in Terminal. But I keep getting the message: -bash: setenv: command not found
Can anyone tell me what's wrong? Thought 'setenv' was a standard unix command.

First this question is better asked in the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix Forum
<http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=735>
'setenv' is a csh/tcsh shell built-in command.
The default Mac OS X shell is 'bash' which sets environment variables using
export VARIABLE_NAME="new value for the variable"
If you are just following some instructions you read somewhere, then either see if there is a bourne shell version (sh, bash, ksh, zsh, ...). Or translate the csh/tcsh specific commands to bourne shell varieties.
If you are a long time csh/tcsh user and want to use that shell, then try using the
chsh
command.

Every Time I do the say command in terminal it shows and error message

Every time I use the say command in terminal it brings an error message but I does say the message why does it put the error message please help

This behavior appears to be arising with some 10.8.4 systems, based on some web searches.
Based on what I've found, there's no specific known trigger, nor any certain cure for this.
See if the discussion in this thread helps any with resolving the MTBEAudioUnitSoundOutput:: PropagateProperty Error -10851 error.
From that discussion thread, please remove any anti-malware software that might be installed and test, and create a second and separate login user and log into that user and test the say command.
Also test with the stock voices and not something that's been downloaded, and also (again, as a test, particularly if you're not using an English locale) see if switching your shell locale to the C locale (export LC_ALL=C) alters the behavior.
If the system is still under warranty or if you have AppleCare with this system, please call Apple support directly and ask.

then
killall Finder

Comment supprimer un dossier via les commandes du terminal ?

Bonjour à tous,
Je possède un macbook air dernière génération est ai un petit problème dessus.
J'ai saturé mon disque dur interne (128 GO) et eu la (fausse) bonne idée d'éteindre mon mac.
Lorsque que j'essaie de le rallumer, après avoir taper le mot de passe de ma session, un écran blanc apparait à la place de mon bureau.
Un message d'erreur apparait "Votre disque de démarrage est saturé. Vous devez libérer de la place sur votre disque en supprimant des fichiers."
Sauf que je ne peux accéder à mes fichiers..
J'ai essayé de supprimer des fichiers via les commandes du terminal (démarrage en mode single user) mais ça ne marche pas..
Est ce que quelqu'un sait comment faire sans restaurer totalement mon disque dur ??
Merci d'avance

How do i get my commands in terminal

I am trying to get certain commands in terminal but it will not let me download them
I tried installing wget but it will not install in the usr/local/bin.
I dont think I have that folder or that file
What am i doing wrong on my mac?

You don't need to sudo su, just sudo /dev/tty
According to the man page,
The most common reason for stat(2) to return "permission denied" is if you are running
an automounter and one of the directories in your PATH is on a machine that is currently unreachable.

Terminal Commands/learn terminal

Hi everyone i was wondering if there is some commands for terminal that won't mess up my computer? I also want to ask if there is an easy or a simple way for beginers with no programming experience to learn terminal well.
thanks

You might try Mac OS X Lion for Dummies, or if you want to get more advanced, UNIX for Dummies.
For experimenting, create a Standard user account that you use only for this. That will protect the system itself and your regular account if you do make a mistake.

The correct syntax for a recursive chmod command in Terminal

I need to set recursive permissions on an external HDD to '777' or 'all read&write'.
I have tried all of the following commands in Terminal:
sudo chmod 777 -r /Volumes/...
sudo chmod -r 777 /Volumes/...
sudo chmod a+rw -r /Volumes/...
sudo chmod -r a+rw /Volumes/...
...all of which being back a 'no such file or directory' error, e.g.
sudo chmod 777 -r /Volumes/232Gb
chmod: -r: No such file or directory
Can anyone confirm the correct syntax for this command?
Thanks in advance...
Message was edited by: ChippyDeluxe

If there were a solution that didn't involve using Terminal, I would prefer that.
The reason I ask is, since my old iMac died and I connected my iMac's external HDD to my MacBook, thousands of folders on my external HDD have 'stop signs' on them and require me to go to
Get Info -> Sharing & Permissions
...and add my MacBook username and set the privilege as "read and write". A bigger problem is, no backup software I've tried will back up this external HDD onto another external HDD any more, so I no longer have an up-to-date backup, which is very worrying.
I am looking for a way of fixing this, and the chmod command appears to be the answer.
Ideally, I don't want any permission restrictions on my external HDD at all, so I can connect it to any machine without problems.
