  • Shutdown with AppleScript in Lion stop working fine

    Hello to everyone,
    I have to run this AppleScript (saved as Application.app)
    do shell script "sudo shutdown -r now"
    With Snow Leopard this script works fine, but now Lion save the application state before shutting down the system, so this application (that is running while the system i shutting down) is automatically restarted at startup.
    I also tried to modify it in:
    do shell script "sudo shutdown -r +1 &"
    tell application "Application"
      quit
    end tell
    but if I quit the script (Application.app) the shutdown command is stopped.
    Can anyone help me in solving this problem, please? I don't know how to do.. Is there a shutdown parameter (via command line) for telling the system to not save the application state?
    Thanks very much!
    I hope to find an "illuminated" programmer that can help me..
    Andrea

    Hi "twtwtw" and thanks for you interesting in my problem.. sorry for my bad english; well.. 'illuminated' is not the world I want
    I also does not have correctly explained my problem, sorry.. I'll try to do it better.
    I use ChronoSync to sync some folder between my iMac (where it's installed on) and my MacBook Pro.. after the syncronization I have to possibility to run an application; the application is the following applescript (saved as .app):
    set isConnected to false
    try
              set reply to do shell script "ping -c 3 -q MacBook-Pro.local | grep received"
              if reply contains "received" then
                        set theCount to (item 4 of (every word of reply)) as integer
                        if theCount > 0 then set isConnected to true
              end if
    end try
    if isConnected then
              do shell script "ssh [email protected] 'sudo shutdown -h now'"
    end if
    delay 60
    do shell script "sudo shutdown -r now"
    This script test if my MacBook Pro is available on my network and (if yes) shutdown it.
    Then wait 60 seconds and shutdown the iMac. I need to use the "do shell script" because my iMac is in the logon screen when the application/script run.. so the script 'tell application "app" to quit' does not work.
    Then.. the application that I have to quit is the same application tha run the shutdown command, so I can't quit it before running the shutdown.
    My goal is to build a script that could shutdown my local system (even if it runs while my user account is locked and I see on the monitor the logon screen) and that will not restart automatically after the reboot (caused by the application state saved by Lion).
    I hope to have explained better my problem
    Sorry again for my english.. and thanks for every suggestion that you could tell me!

  • MacBookPro 13 running Lion stops working after starting

    My MacBookPro starts and everything looks ok. I get my desktop and all my icons but when I try to open a file I realize that it's all blocked and still, while the safari icon is jumping endless in the dock. The only thing I can do is to use the start button to close and restart it. Thank you if you can help.

    Use Lion Recovery to repair the startup disk if necessary, or reinsall the Mac OS X.
    Make sure all of your important data is backed up first.

    Since I upgrade to Lion OS my optical drive stop working can't read or write at all I did what I could to fix it but still not working , any help please

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • Pkg's made by PackageMaker from Xcode4.2 stopped working after Mountain Lion 10.8.1 upgrade!

    We have some pkg's that used to install fine across Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion.
    Those pkg's were made from PackageMaker that came with Xcode4.2.
    Since last week's Mountain Lion 10.8.1 upgrade, the pkg's preflight/postflight scripts stopped working
    on Mountain Lion machines, but still work with Lion and Snow Leopard.
    The current workaround we use is to produce the pkg using PackageMaker that comes from Xcode4.4 auxiliary tools.
    These pkg's work fine on all mentioned OS X.
    I think this should be either a bug in 10.8.1 upgrade or a change of policy.
    Can someone reproduce and clarify?
    Thanks!

    You are not alone!!
    Same problem with Plantronics.
    I just bought their Audio 648 Stereo USB Headset and have exactly the same issue you mention at the outset:
    Essentially, while my [Plantronics Audio 648] Headset is recognized in the list of devices in System Preferences > Sound, it doesn't do anything in terms of outputting or inputting audio
    So Apple, what are you going to do?...
    A lot of third party accessory manufacturers must be getting quite frustrated at the numer of complaints they get from Mac users, when it seems its the Mac OS which is to blame...

  • IMac SuperDrive stopped working with Mountain Lion 10.8.2

    HELP! My IMac was patched last yesterday and the SuperDrive has stopped working. The drive is empty but I cannot insert a CD into it.
    Should I have to await another patch from Apple? Can someone recommend another solution I can use today?
    Support folks:

      Interconnect:          ATAPI

      DVD-Write:          -R, -R DL, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW
      Write Strategies:          CD-TAO, CD-SAO, CD-Raw, DVD-DAO
      Media:          To show the available burn speeds, insert a disc and choose File > Refresh Information
    Thanks

    @BDAqua, Thank you for taking the time to respond.
    When I insert a disc into the drive, the drive does not load it. Until yesterday, before the latest patch was applied, the drive used to sense that a disc was being inserted, it would automatically draw it in and load it.
    Brian at Apple Support led me through the PRAM reset and also a filesystem check but neither of them resolved the issue. I guess I am now faced with two possible options
    a) reinstall Mountain Lion from scratch (reminds me of the days when I was using Windows, never expected to get into a similar situation with a Mac!), or
    b) there is a hardware failure, coincident with the patches applied yesterday
    Are there any other options?
    Thanks

  • Mountain Lion 1.8.2 update made my dual monitor stop working on Mac Pro mid 2012

    Just done Apple's update for Mac OS X Mountain Lion to 1.8.2 and after rebooting my dual monitor stopped working.
    If I go on preferences -> Displays it shows me only one of my two monitors, even if I invert the connections the 2nd monitor doesn't shows up and there seems no way to enable it again.
    Any suggestion?
    P.S. I already tried to set from "Best for display" to "Scaled", but after rebooting Mountain Lion 1.8.2 reset it to "Best for display"

    Ok,
    did some extra test here, but first of all my configuration:
    Mac Pro (Mid 2012) with ATI Radeon HD 5870 1GB.
    2 LCD 24" Wide-screen (1st monitor Hyundai W240D and 2nd Monitor HP w2448hc), both LCD worked perfectly until reboot after installing OS X 1.8.2
    After reboot only the 1st monitor wored fine, the 2nd not even listed, so tried to invert cable connections on the 2 miniports on the ATI video card, but nothing changed, still only the 1st monitor working.
    Did a second test, disconnected the 1st monitor and connected ONLY the 2nd and now the second works fine.
    Tried to connect 2nd monitor on a different miniport, and i still works fine.
    Updated my MacBook Pro to 1.8.2 (it as an nVidia card) and connected my 2nd monitor to it and everything works fine, both the laptop LCD and my HP LCD are working fine.
    So it looks like Apple screwed up the ATI driver on the latest 1.8.2, now only ONE miniport is active.
    To all users with the same Mac Pro configuration: hold to update to Mountain Lion 1.8.2 until Apple fix this driver issue.
    More info are on the Console output, so will have to contact Apple on-line support to signal this bug.

  • Lion SMB File Sharing with Windows 7 stops working after reboot

    I'm running my macmini with lion 10.7.1.  I have switched on File Sharing and ticked 'Share files and folders using SMB (Windows)' and ticked my user account.  Using the same account name and password on windows and I can access the shares on the macmini fine.
    Soon as I reboot the macmini the sharing stops working and Windows just prompts for a username and password.  If I disable and enable file sharing again on the macmini then windows can access it again just fine, reboot the mac and it stops again, is this a bug in Lion or have I not got it setup correctly?

    Whatever the issue is, it's still happening for me in 10.7.2

  • CS3: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS with Lion Upgrade

    Hi:
    My trusty Adobe Photoshop CS3 has quit working with the upgrade to Lion on my Intel iMac.
    Specifically, when I try and launch it now I get "Licensing for this product has stopped working. You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem ..."
    I went to this site for advice: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/error-licensing-stopped-mac-os.html
    I followed Solution 1: Delete the FlexNet Publisher preferences folder
    It didn't work.
    Now I'm trying Solution 2: Run the License Repair Tool
    I get to step 5g and type:
    sudo python /Volumes/LicenseRecovery\ 11.6.1/LicenseRecovery/LicenseRecoveryLauncher.app
    I enter my PW.
    Then I consistently get an error that reads:
      File "/Volumes/LicenseRecovery 11.6.1/LicenseRecovery/LicenseRecoveryLauncher.app", line 1
    SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xfe' in file /Volumes/LicenseRecovery 11.6.1/LicenseRecovery/LicenseRecoveryLauncher.app on line 1, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
    Can anyone help? Thank you very much!

    This worked for me (Mac OS) :
    1) you should have opened the LicenceRecovery111.dmg file and you should see in the LicenseRecovery directory a file named LicenseRecover.py
    2) clic on the right of the mouse, do a copy of the LicenseRecover.py and renamed it at the end .pyOld
    3) find in your Mac in the applications the Smultron.app editor (you may need to use a text editor that keeps encoding of the file when it read and save it, Smultron seems to do that), launch Smultron
    4) in Smultron do menu : file - open and find, in the LicenceRecovery directory, the file named LicenseRecover.py chose it to open it.
    In the options, I did not have to chose, because the default encoding (Occidental Mac OS Roman) worked for me (with menus in english then), but I think you may chose in the option when you open the file the coding : UTF-8
    4) the first line in the LicenseRecover.py file was 
    # encoding: utf-8
    . replace it by
    # --*-- coding: utf-8 --*--
    . save the file
    5) try to re-execute the process as mentionned (sudo python ...)

  • WIFI connections stop working in lion

    Since upgrading to Lion the wifi connection between my computers has stopped working
    or ar best works really sloooooowly.
    I have 3 macs, I use wifi at times to talk to them all, in particular from my Mac Book Pro
    which moves around a lot.
    Since the upgrade connecting to my local network has been slow, Today it stopped working completely.
    I use CMD-K to call up the network browse and clicking BROWSE I see a list of attached computers. Double clicking the one I want the folders on the remote system pop open very quickly under Snow Leopard. Now it is a big problem and the Mac Book Pro procedure causes nothing at all to happen. This is quite serious BS as I use these tools in this configuration for my work. It is no longer fast, or does not work at all.
    The computers I am using
    Mac Book Pro mid-2010. i7 with Lion 10.7 and WIFI enabled and internet working ok, just the connect to my other computers is failing.
    iMac 20 inch aluminum mid 2008, core 2 duo, WIFI enabled, also ethernet to ADSL modem. Internet OK. Lion 10.7
    MacMini late 2010, core 2 duo, Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Ethernet connection to ADSL modem. Internet OK.
    Anyone else having a problem like this? Today is the first day it just failed. Today I upgraded the iMac to 10.7 Lion and it is after trying to connect with MB Pro Lion that it just fails to connect to the iMac at all, returns no errors.

    I am having the same issue.  I've been struggling with figuring out if it's Verizon or Lion because whenever the internet is down on my mac it's also down on my PC, but it began exactly when I upgraded to Lion.  I have yet to find an answer to this problem and have been on the phone with Verizon numerous times to try and fix the issue.  The only thing that helps is to restart my Verizon modem/router and then my internet is re-established for about 6-8 hours.  It's extremely frustrating and the only thing I have been able to find on blogs is that other people are experiencing the same problems without resolution.

  • Safari in Lion has stopped working.

    Safari in Lion has stopped working.  All my peers that have lion have been having this problem, and those that still have Snow Leopard have no issues with their Safari. The loading animation only gets to about as far as "http://" and just hangs there. It says it's connected to the internet (i've tried with both wi-fi and ethernet). I have no idea what happened, as it had been working for a solid month before this.
    I'm sadly writing this message from the firefox browser .
    In the past to get it to start working again (for a short period of time), i would:
    Emtpy Cache in Safari
    Reset Safari
    Remove my Wi-Fi remembered internets
    Delete Wi-fi
    Reboot the computer
    Re-add Wifi
    Reconnect to the internet
    it would still hang for a bit, but eventually it would load a page.
    If anyone has any advise, it's much appreciated.

    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
    Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are actually shell commands -- little programs. They’re harmless, but they must be used exactly as given in order to work. Some of the lines will probably wrap in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Step 1
    Launch the Terminal application, copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the window, and press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    Step 4
    ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address will appear in the output of the above command. Change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
    Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
    You can then quit Terminal.
