Avahi everywhere...

Hi,
I'm currently configuring a lightweight production desktop using Arch, for use in public libraries around here, in replacement of your CentOS 5 desktops. Starting from a base system, I add X11, the XFCE desktop environment, and then applications one by one, given they are needed. I've been a long-time Slackware user before, so I find the KISS philosophy of Arch very appealing.
Well, some details don't seem as KISS as they could be.
Example 1: CUPS. pacman -S cups draws in various stuff, among which avahi. I don't remember this thing being a CUPS dependency.
Example 2: K3B. Since there's no equivalent for burning apps, I've always been using this for burning, the more so since it only needs qt, kdelibs and some multimedia stuff. Same thing here: pacman -S k3b draws in a lot of stuff, among which avahi.
Now I'm pondering: clutter my system, or rebuild CUPS and K3B?

zeroconf based detection of printers was added in cups 1.3. finally, imho!

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • Adobe Bridge Icon is Everywhere, What's with that?

       I have literally hundreds & hundreds of the [Adobe Bridge Icon] with the text following: Adobe Bridge Cache .bc or .bct.........
       These are everywhere imaginable, open any folder and see them. They are in the most unlikely places that have no connection to photoshop at all. The icons are usually paired, one with the .bc and the other with the .bct
       I'm always trashing them, it doesn't affect anything, nothing changes or happens by doing it. But, it's very annoying, there can be long strings of them especially in folders of pics. They can & do appear anywhere/everywhere but usually just in pairs, in or outside of subfolders but ultimately within a folder. Not sure, but come to think of it, they may appear on the desktop periodically. Also, when I do trash them they always seem to reappear later....maybe not all of them but most-
      Is there a way to stop this?
    I'm running Ps CS2
    My system:  17" iMac G4: 1.35GHz, 1GB SDRAM, 80GB HD, 200GB Maxtor Ext.HD, Leopard  10.5.8.
    **XLR8 MAChSpeed G4 7457 CPU+512 Cache**

    This has nothing to do with Photoshop. Those files are Bridge cache files. In CS2, there was an option to use Central or Distributed cache. It sounds like you have the Distributed option selected.
    [From: http://www.adobepress.com/articles/article.asp?p=483796]
    By default, Adobe Bridge stores its cache in a central location. To make  the cache more robust you can choose the Use Distributed Cache Files  When Possible option in the Bridge Advanced Preferences dialog box. When  this option is chosen, Bridge stores the cache for each folder in that  folder. Doing so makes the cache more robust and eliminates the need to  export the cache before burning a CD or DVD. However, this creates a  pair of cache files in every folder. They are normally hidden, but you  can view them if you choose View > Show Hidden Files. There are other  caching options in the Cache submenu of the Tools menu, and in the  Bridge Advanced Preferences.

  • Mid-2010 Macbook Pro - Sudden Issues everywhere

    Ok, so I've got a Mid-2010 Macbook Pro and just before Christmas all of a sudden issues just popped up everywhere. I'll give you a rundown of what all i've seen and what all I've done since.
    So I start getting a message something like
    - AppleSecurity - Unauthorized caller ...popping up intermittently. And then,
    - Firefox, once you shut the window down you couldn't get open again, and when you quit the app the computer seemed to freeze
    - ITunes wouldnt open
    - App Store wouldnt open
    - Safari would only open some webpages
    - Steam worked 10% of the time.
    - Powerpoint and Word would crash or not save etc.
    - I had to push the button to restart to get the thing working again and from time to time it would freeze or crash shutdown at the grey screen.
    - I kept getting small indications that the memory was full.
    - Cant shut down or restart without holding the button
    So I deleted stuff, generally cleaned up unneeded files etc. ... Same problems. I eventually got so exasperated that I just stuck everything I needed on a flash drive and wiped the user and started a new one.
    Same problems but slightly better.... So at this point I go into the Apple Store and go to the Genius bar - The guy wipes runs a check on my hard drive and everything ticks the boxes barring battery which is at 74% roughly. Then he wipes everything off to a factory restart, updates it, then hands it back.
    I get it back home and I have issues even setting up the user as if it was a new macbook. I have untick all the set time zone and network stuff to get it to work.
    I get it back going and ... still problems... but slightly better. But I cant update flash, steam crashes, sometimes again things dont work. Safari sometimes doesnt open some webpages and I have to restart to get things to get working again.
    Also, things seem to be a little better when I'm using the universities internet as opposed to the one in my flat.
    SO...! Back into the Apple Store, Genius Bar, he runs a full check on the drive because he seen some I/O errors in the console. AND.. everything passes. He runs a full daignostic and still can't figure it out. He says he seen some weird messages about Steam causing problems in the console but that was it, which I dont think could be the problem because I was getting problems before I even reinstalled it after the factory wipe/reset. The network causing problems maybe?
    What do I do people? No-one at the Apple Store can pinpoint whats going on?! I really want to get this fixed because I need this for uni and I can't afford a new one
    Please Help!

    poikkeus1,
    After getting a "properly" functioning LB, the temps are much lower than that, even when beating onit doing live recording. idle 25-30 degrees max, beating it with a "pile of inputs" recording 65-70
    The first machine i spent over 4 hours with a senior engineer doing an ARA, it was like someone took a shotgun and blasted the data all over the place.
    I switched machines (after 30 days, which would say they knew they had an issue)
    Second time temps off the map, and unexplainable "bizzare" behavior. (random)
    second time same deal, all over the place.
    Now everything seems happy, for months now. (I hope I just did not jinx myself)
    It sure seems that would be the place to look, hence you should ask for the flat rate repair.
    Best

  • MacBook Air wi-fi doesn't work at home but does everywhere else?

    Hello everyone, out of the blue recently my mid-2012 Macbook air started having wifi issues at home.  Everywhere I go except my house the wifi works excellently.  This would lead one to believe my home wifi is at fault, however all of my family's devices (ipad, iphones, pc, etc) connect to and use the wifi just fine throughout the house.
    Even more strange is the fact that when I am in close proximity to the router (in the basement)  the wifi works and is fast.  It also works in my kitchen, but strangely does not in the living room 10 feet to the left or in my room upstairs.  If it does rarely work in those areas, it is extremely slow and does not take long before it doesn't work at all.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 
    Just a side note, I updated to OSX mavericks hoping this would solve the issue but it did not.

    In an area where your WiFi is not working, try System Preferences > Network > Assist Me > Diagnostics

  • Updated to Yosemite, no problem.  now iPhoto and iMovie won't open.  Says I need to update software however, when i try to update indicates my User ID and PW won't work for these two pieces of software.  User ID and PW works everywhere else.

    I am having the same problem.  I even changed my password and updated all of my security information.  Now it just gives me an error and retry message, which of course also does not work.  Went to support and was going to open a chat (seemed the simpler option) and received a message that my support has expired for this serial number unless I want to pay $29.00.  So I chose the option to call later, which was the exact time suck I was trying to avoid.  Why wouldn't the new operating system also update the apps that were already part of my old platform?

  • "Delete Everywhere"....Seriously?  I dont want to!!!

    iPhone 4:  iOS 6.0
    OS:  Win 7
    iTunes:  10.7.0.21
    This seemed like a simple idea, even for Apple.
    I wanted to take my pictures from the camera roll and place them in folders to keep them organized.  Folders were created, no problem and pictures were moved around and situated in the new folders.  A relocation and a homecoming all at the same time, if you will.  It was a short lived happy moment.
    Then I wanted to delete the pictures from the camera roll, but that is the problem.  It wants to delete "Everywhere".  I don't want it to delete from everywhere (I really don’t), just the camera roll. 
    I get it.  Apple has placed a copy of the photo in the new folder and retained the other.....because it likes two copies???
    So I have been reading the ASC's and read several places that once you sync your phone and laptop, that the newly created folders would transfer over to the laptop and you could delete then from the camera roll.  That doesn’t happen, might have been helpful, but it didn’t.  The new folders on the iPhone, do not show up on the computer.  If it does...it’s hiding very well!  I'll take the frustration to one more level.  The picture folders that "were" on the phone (the old established folders from the computer), are now not on the phone (they are still on the computer, but it looks like during all the new construction they decided to just move out).  Just lovely.  My favorite miss information form ACS’s is to hit the "green arrow at the top right" on the camera roll/picture.  In all the years I have had an iPhone....I have not set eyes on such an elusive green arrow.  Those of you promoting the "green arrow"...how about a screen shot so the rest of us can be every with green.....and arrows.
    I must have missed a step somewhere......cause that isn’t working and neither is the very, very simple idea of just deleting one picture and not both pictures.
    Please help.

    If you cant delete it from one, then why have the option to place it somewhere else.....that isn't somewhere else...and is just a "pointer"???
    For an option to view the photos placed in the album only.
    The same applies to photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process. If you transfer multiple albums or folders, all photos are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library. The photos in the albums or folders transferred from your computer include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. This way you can view the photos in an album or folder only, or all photos in all albums or folders by selecting Photo Library.
    The same with the Camera Roll and user created albums on the iPhone. You can view photos in a user created album only by selecting the album, or all photos in the Camera Roll by selecting Camera Roll.
    This is done with photos transferred from your computer and with photos placed in user created album from the Camera Roll without duplicating the photos as in taking double the storage space. Delete a photo placed in a user created album from the Camera Roll and the photo will no longer be available in the album since the photo is not duplicated. The original is stored in the Camera Roll.
    The same applies with iTunes music placed in a playlist. Delete the original from the iTunes library and the song will no longer be available in the playlist.

  • How do you delete an app from your iPhone and everywhere else?

    Vonage just messaged me that they have a new iPhone app replacing the old one.
    OK.  I'll download it.
    But I want to get rid of the old Vonage app from everywhere it exists in my Apple ecosystem (2 iPhones, iPad and iTunes on my Mac, maybe even my iCloud)
    How is this done?

    I cannot create a catalog because everywhere I try on my computer, it comes up with cannot Lightroom cannot create a catalog on network volumes.  And is there any way to contact Adobe directly?  Would you be able to give me a phone number and/or email address?@@

    The short and direct answer to your question about catalogs on a network drive is that you can't do that. The catalog must reside on a local drive.

  • How do I stop the popup ads from hoping up everywhere?

    Everytime I go on Safari, and open a webpage I go and start reading the article I want to read and next thing you know up pops an App or a game and my article I was trying to read is nowhere to be found! This is absolutely as frustrating as I can possibly get!! I can't read anything ever, because of the  Apps and games popping up everywhere!! What can I do to stop this from happening?? This is not a good quality user experience with Apple products I'm having and am thinking about going back Android because even though the user experience isn't that much better there, its at least better than this pop up crap happening  everytime I'm on Safari trying to read. Please help? Please? I already have block pop ups checked in preferences so I don't know how else this can be prevented?
    Thank you ANYONE whom can help me eliminate this from happening anymore?

  • I recently changed wireless providers and now have new e-mail address.  changed profiles everywhere including Apple ID.  On my iphone, old email address still appears when I try to access itunes or update apps. How do I get new apple id to sync with phone

    I updated profiles everywhere including Apple ID.  However on my iphone,. when I need to update apps or do antyhing through itunes store, my old email address appears.

    follow directions given in the link to change your Apple ID to the new email address.
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    sign out of your Apple ID on the phone, then sign in with the new Apple ID and password.

  • How do you reset the Apple ID to a new one for the automatic updates download tool?  It defaults to my old Apple ID, even though I have changed the Apple ID to the new one everywhere I can find.

    I have an original Apple ID from my personal iPhone and iPad.  I bought a MacBook Pro for business and the Apple Store clerk told me to use the old Apple ID to make setup faster and that I could change to a new one later.   So... I did all that and changed the Apple ID everywhere I can find a place to do so.  And everything seems okay, except the Automatic Updates download tool defaults back to my original Apple ID.  That old Apple ID is grayed out in the login, so I cannot seem to change it to download and update under my new, business-related Apple ID for my MacBook Pro.  What to do?

    Yes, absolutely, you can still use the old ID to update, etc., but I understood the OP to want to simply discard the old one and use only the new one. Maybe I misunderstood...
    And, actually just now re-reading the first post, it could be that the ID had only been associated with the iDevices, so if he established a new ID and associated that with the new MBP, I frankly have no idea if he can still use the old ID on that machine (based on him saying that the old ID is greyed out) - have not come up with this type of situation before.

  • My MacBook works fine wifi everywhere except for home.  The home wifi is fine with the iPad and iPhone.  How can I fix my MacBook?

    My MacBook works fine wifi everywhere except for home.  The home wifi is fine with the iPad and iPhone, so I assume the issue is with my computer.  My computer works fine on wifi networks elsewhere.  The only problem is at home.
    The computer "connects to the wifi," but browsers and other internet-dependent software do not work.  Curiously, if I connect the ethernet cord that doesn't work either. Usually if I reset the modem to factory settings twice (for some reason, once doesn't do the trick), my computer will fully connect to the wifi.  However, in a few days, it goes back to not working.
    Today, resetting the modem didn't work. I could only get wifi connection while in safe mode, but not in normal mode.  So, the issue seems to be software not hardware. I have tried starting new accounts in normal mode, but those also don't connect properly to internet.
    Not sure if this is relevant, but this problem started when my building switched internet providers from ComHem to Telia (I live in Sweden).
    What do you recommend I do?
    Thanks!
    PS I use Snow Leopard: OS 10.6.8

    Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
    What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect.
