Cannot remove bash profile created in terminal

I created this while messing around with an Android device and being a terminal noob, I can't get rid of it as it appears everytime I start terminal if I need it for some reason.
I can get to edit the profile but I can never save it and remove it.
This is what appears when starting a new shell...

android_f0998c4579c23b36:~ Matthew$
I need to remove that sdkfolder profile and get it back to a "stock" terminal shell!
Help! As my shell will no longer recognize many commands because of this profile.

How about terminal command:
exit

  • Cannot remove profile from iPhone post update

    We have encountered a problem with configuration profiles installed using the IPCU prior to either the iOS upgrade to 5.1 or the matching update to the IPCU. The situation occurs when a configuration profile was installed with the removal setting set to 'Never'. Previously this meant the only way to remove the profile was with the IPCU i.e. not by the end user. Since the updates we can no longer remove these profiles either direct from the device or via the IPCU.
    I have tried another profile installed before the update which had the removal setting at 'Always' and this also cannot be removed by the IPCU. However you can remove this direct from the device ok. If you then re-install the profile using the IPCU everything behaves as expected, you can add/remove as normal from device or IPCU.
    Anyone else had this problem, or are we the first to come accross it?
    We need these profiles to be locked and not removable by the end user, but this level of locking is impossible to work with. At the moment it means we have to rebuild each device just to change a configuration setting

    Hey joe.russell,
    Perfect, and thank you for the extra information. It could be that your iPhone is seeing all of your purchased music located on the cloud. Try turning off Show All Music from Settings and see if this affects what is showing on your device.

  • Create IOS app to remove MDM profile

    Hi,
    I need a way to automatically remove specific profiles from ipads and then reinstall from a URL. Is this something that could be achieved with Xcode?
    I am an experienced c# programmer and thinking off learning objective C. This may well be my first project. I work as an IT manager and we have just started rolling out iPads, etc using MDM.
    Any advice is much appreciated.
    Ps I know that I can do this with the MDM. This is to deal with unusal circumstances that sometimes occur in IT!, and the end user doesnt want to uninstall settings themselves.

    Hi, Andrew-
    What specifically are you looking for?  It's unclear if you're looking for best practices or other documentation.  Thanks,

  • Favorite Bash profile commands

    In keeping with nbar recent discussion of favorite commands, I'll start a discussion on favorite commands in your Bash profile.
    I have these lines in my extended bash profile script.
    # Prevent control-d from exit a console session. 
    # Use exit or logout. 
    set -o ignoreeof
    # Allow editing of retrieved commands. (the up arrow)
    # Use the history command to show past commands
    shopt -s histverify
    # I like to printout the current directory after any cd command
    # Use functions so I do not have to add to the path variable.
    # Print current directory after change directory command cd
    alias cd='cdir'
    # Define a command to change a directory and list the resulting directory
    function cdir ()
      \cd "$*"
      pwd
      # Define a new command called e.## common text editor front end.# I'm tired of nano.#function e (){  # Which os?   if [ "${OSTYPE:0:6}" = "darwin" ] ; then    # Mac OS X specific syntax    if [ -w $* ] ; then      open -a textwrangler $*    elif [ -r $* ] ; then      # use textwranglers powers to edit      open -a textwrangler $*    else      # for the tuff stuff :-(      # hints at:       #  http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/20199/how-do-i-open-a-file-as-root-in-textedit-on-lion      echo "open files with warning message.

    The following is a shell function that I use in my command prompt to display ONLY the last n subdirectory names (for example the last 3 subdirectory names).  The \W which is the default PS1 magic that displays the current working directory in your promote ONLY displays the name of the directory and none of the path.  The \w magic displays the entire path, which can be way too long.  My __cwd() function displays the last n subdirectories
    So changing your default prompt from:
        PS1="\h:\W \u\$ "
    to
        PS1="\h:\$(__cwd 3) \u\$ "
    # __cwd() - function to create current working directory prompt string.  I
    #           want less than the entire path, and more than just the last
    #           element in the path.  It turns out the bash prompt string can
    #           execute a script function, so I created my own bit of code to
    #           generate the current working directory prompt string I want.
    # Usage:  PS1="...\$(__cwd 3)..."
    #         Where:   3 in the above example is the number of subdirectories to
    #                  keep. 3 is also the default if no value is given.
    #         Output:  /
    #                  /usr
    #                  /usr/share
    #                  /usr/share/vim
    #                  /.../share/vim/vim63
    #                  ~/
    #                  ~/Music
    #                  ~/Music/iTunes
    #                  ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music  # notice spaces are honored
    #                  ~/.../iTunes/iTunes\ Music/Beach Boys
    #                  ~/.../iTunes\ Music/Beach\ Boys/Made\ in\ the\ U.S.A.
    __cwd()
        n="${1:-3}"             # if no dir count, default to 3
        p="#${PWD}"             # add # so after split # represents the root dir
        IFS="/"                 # split on directory divider '/'
        set ${p/#\#${HOME}/\~}  # Replace #$HOME with ~ and split into dir parts
        p="${1}"                # ${1} has # or ~, save it
        shift $(($#-(n+1) < 0 ? 0 : $#-(n+1)))   # remove excess leading dirs
        [[ "${1}" != [#~]* ]] && p="${p}/..."    # ... represents a partial path
        for ((j=2; j<n+2; j++)); do p="${p}/${!j}"; done # append last n dirs
        while [[ "${p}" = [#/]/* ]]; do p="${p#?}"; done # del leading /'s and #
        while [[ "${p}" = *[^~]/ ]]; do p="${p%?}"; done # del trailing /'s
        printf "%q" "${p}"      # generate path str w/shell magic chars quoted
    As my professors used to say:  "Figuring out how __cwd() works is left as an exercise for the student."
    In reality, my PS1 prompt is much more complex.  I also colorize my prompt.  For example:
        PS1="\D{%a@%R}[\[\e[44;36;1m\]\h\[\e[0m\]]\[\e[34;1m\]\$(__cwd 3)\[\e[0m\]> "
    This will generate a prompt similar to the following:
        Thu@15:09[BobBookPro]~/.../iTunes/iTunes\ Music/Beatles>
    Where 'BobBookPro' will be Cyan text on Blue (I couldn't get the forum to generate the blue background, but it really does look nice when you see it on the actual terminal.  And the "~/.../iTunes/iTunes\ Music/Beatles" will be Blue.
    Where:
    \D{%a@%R} is prompt magic to substitute the day of the week @ time of day.
    All the \[...\] notation tells the prompt that non-printing character codes are happening between.  In this case the color codes are inside the \[...\]
    \e[44;36;1m says cyan text on blue
    \e[34;1m says blue text
    \h is the computer name.  If you are having any problems getting the Mac to always use your System Preferences -> Sharing -> Computer name, you could replace "\h" with "$(networksetup -getcomputername)"
    # Prompt Colors
    #         -foreground- ----bold---- -underline-- --reverse---   -background-
    # black         \e[30m     \e[30;1m     \e[30;4m     \e[30;7m    \e[40;fg;1m
    # red           \e[31m     \e[31;1m     \e[31;4m     \e[31;7m    \e[41;fg;1m
    # green         \e[32m     \e[32;1m     \e[32;4m     \e[32;7m    \e[42;fg;1m

    I have several different Mac, Linux, Solaris, AIX system I work with on a regular basis.  I use different hostname colors so it is easier for me to see by the color with terminal window I'm currently using.  Also when I'm scrolling through my scroll back history, the colored prompts make it easy to see the commands vs the output, which is very useful if the output is very long.

  • How do I remove a "profile"?

    My work recently (finally) started supporting iphone/ipads. And they gave us DIY instructions, to connect to the exchange server, etc. During one step we had to navigate to a website, and click a link. It then warned us it was going to install something, and asked us to set a passcode. The instructions they gave us did warn that once this was done, it couldn't be undone (without a factore restore)
    Well, I didn't realize what I was installing. Now my phone requires a device passcode, with a lockout interval of 5min. And not just a 4 digit pin. It has to be an 8 character letters/numbers/caps/symbols passcode.
    Forget it. I'm not willing to put up with that. I don't need my work email on my phone that badly.
    I noticed now in settings>general there is a new section called "profile", that wasn't there before. How do I get rid of it?? I want to get rid of the whole thing. I asked the help desk at work. Their helpful advice 'to delete an app, press on it until it wiggles'.
    Really??
    When I said that didn't work, she suggested contacting Apple. (nice to see such an informed IT department, but I digress.)
    I have already restored it from a backup, but, I had synced the phone after the installation, so I guess the backup isn't old enough? Even after a total factory restore, it's still asking me to create the long passcode.
    How do I get rid of this???
    There must be some way...
    My itunes only shows the most recent backup, so I'm not sure what else to do... (and if I could go back to an older backup,
    right now the phone is telling me I must create a passcode within 60 min (now down to 14). I'm hoping that if I just DON'T create the passcode, it will deactivate those features, but I really don't know. Hopefully it won't just brick the whole phone.
    When I first added my exchange account, this summer, it forced me to add a 4 digit simple passcode. That I could live with. But having to enter this 8 character nightmare every 5 min is really untenable.
    Thanks for your help!

    "The instructions they gave us did warn that once this was done, it couldn't be undone (without a factore restore)"
    That is from your first post.
    In order to provide security settings that satisfy most workplaces, Exchange and ActivSync install a profile that determines all security settings on the iPhone, lets them control what can be placed on the iPhone, gives them the capability to wipe the iPhone, etc. If there was an easy way to remove this and get around it then there wouldn't be much security present. Hence the warning. If these things weren't acceptable to you then you should have stopped at that point. Your employer cannot send another profile that is removable that would then allow you to remove the other one.
    If you restore from a backup, as you have discovered, you will restore the profile, etc. You will have to restore it as a new phone then set up your sync to reload your music, pictures, apps, etc. from your computer.
    You will lose your voice mails, settings, text messages doing this, so you need to move them to your computer to save them. This application will accomplish this: http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/
    No, it is not free, but it is handy software to have around. After you move the items you need from your device do the Restore as New, set up your sync setting and put all your media back on, then use phoneview to put your voicemail and texts back on the device.
    If you picked up your contacts from your Exchange server you may not be able to retain those.

  • ISE cannot push the profile to the cisco network setup assistant?

    We have tried a few android devices with version 4.2+ but still got the error message ‘Unable to download profile.(Have you logged into the guest portal?)’ as shown at the bottom picture.
    In fact, we are connecting the devices to an open SSID which performs MAC filtering, then redirect to CWA and login with AD credentials,
    then redirect to Google play store and can successfully download the network setup assistant.
    Could you please advise the possible reasons that would cause this error message and make ISE cannot push the profile to the cisco network setup assistant?

    Here's a snipit from the Android spw.log.  I see that there is an error trying to verify the hostname.  Is it possible that this is caused by a non-trusted certificate?  I'm using the self-signed cert built into ISE.  I have an entry in the public DNS for guest.domain.com that resolves to the IP of my ISE server accessible from the guest subnet.  I'm allowing all traffic from the guest VLAN to the ISE vlan on the firewall and all traffic to/from the ISE server in the provisioning ACL I have applied by ISE on the WLC during native supplicant provisioning.  I know that guests can communicate with the ISE server since regular guest portal redirection works, just not the network setup assistant.  I've renamed the domain to domain.com in this snipit.

  • Downloaded Firefox 4--computer asks over and over to restart, Firefox will not load, cannot remove it!!

    I received an update message after my system had installed the newest Firefox 3. something, approximately 4 days ago. (Today is 3/22, so about 3/17--18) The newest update , when started, took me to the Mozilla homepage, where It was suggested I download and comment on the new Firefox 4---I do not normally do this, but am so impressed with Firefox versus most others, that I did, now, I cannot open Firefox at all, the older version, 3. something, is not in my system, only 4, but my system/PC upon trying to open the new Firefox, prompts me over and over to restart the system, (which I have done 3 times) I figured I would then simply remove it, (Firefox 4) and either try it again, or re-install the newest 3. something---I cannot remove it, even using my anti-virus program to do so, it simply prompts over and over to restart, wether I try to open, remove, or access it in any way---I do not wish to use system restore, but that seems my only option, please help!!!

    I had the same problem and the solution is quite simple:
    - delete all data that has to do with Firefox and Mozilla
    - Reinstall the new version Firefox 4
    You have to make sure that everything is deleted and well yes you will lose your profile data but at least it works again without any problem.

  • I can't open my Itunes keep receiving error message- The iTunes Library.itl file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "i Tunes" folder in the "Music" folder

    I can't open my Itunes keep receiving error message- The iTunes Library.itl file  cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "i Tunes" folder in the "Music" folder. I have even tried removing and reinstalling iTunes and it still does work because I continue to receive this error message. Please Help!

    Anyone can help to advice how to solve this issue ?

  • Error: "The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, ..."

    The full error message I am receiving is:
    "The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the "My Music" folder."
    I cannot access iTunes at all. I have removed it from my computer and downloaded it several times and that has not helped. I am running on Windows XP platform.
    Ideas of how to fix this??
    THANKS!

    I will try that when I get home. Part of the problem could be that after I installed iTunes and loaded most of my music onto my computer, my hard disk space ran out. I bought an external hard drive and transferred everything to that. iTunes still worked. I downloaded an updated version of iTunes and that is when I started receiving this message. I will try the TweakUI. If you have any more thoughts, let me know.
    THANKS!

  • Itunes won't open: "the folder cannot be found or created ans is required"

    HELP! When I try to open my itunes a message occurs that states: The folder "itunes"cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the "my music" folder.
    When I click on the my documents/my music folder it is empty.
    itunes will launch on other users on the same computer - just not mine.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    You don't specify which Windows version you are using or which iTunes version either. Both would be helpful in diagnosing your issue. Also do you have separate partitions (Drives) for your Data and system?
    Have you made any changes to the location of your My Documents Folder recently? Also I'm surprised that the My Music folder is totally empty, it should at least contain a shortcut to the 'Sample Music' folder! Have you indavertantly deleted the contents of the My Music folder, or may be 'dragged' the contents with the mouse to another location?
    Making a few assumptions, ie. you are using Windows XP, have just one Drive (C:\)on your system and that you haven't changed any of the default settings in either Windows or iTunes:
    Firstly do a search in your 'UserProfile' for the following file;
    iTunes Music Library.xml
    Do the search from the 'C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\' folder and specify under the 'More Advanced Options' that it 'Search hidden files and folders' & 'Search subfolders'. The 'UserName' is the name used to log into your User Account in Windows XP.
    By doing this search from your UserName folder it restricts the search to your own profile as the file mentioned will be present in all the other account profiles on the system, that use iTunes.
    This file contain all the settings information for iTunes which includes the setting for where the iTunes folder is located. For instance on my system the settings for the iTunes folder location look like this;
    +*Music Folder*+
    +*file://localhost/E:/Users/Public/Public%20Music/iTunes%20Music/My%20Albums*+
    If you find this file in your UserName folders somewhere note their location, it should 'normally be stored in the default iTunes folder. If you have inadvertently moved the contents of the +*My Music*+ folder, this should help you to find where they have been moved to and then you can move them back again to the correct location.
    HTH.
    Jonathan.
