Enable journaling in yosemite through terminal

Hi there,
I have a Macbook Pro 2012.
Background: I was having problems with the system freezing up a few months ago. Then I got a grey apple logo at start up without being able to boot properly. I used my phone's internet to try to find a fix. One website said to try disabling journaling, so I did that through the terminal in the recovery thing. It worked, I was able to log in. I replaced my hard drive and ram to hopefully fix the problem. That worked as well, I've had no freezing problems (I'm not using Chrome out of fear that that contributed to the freezing).
Anyhow, I did a verify disk on my volume to make sure everything was ok, and it stopped and told me to do with through recovery thing. I noticed that instead of "journaled" being listed under volume info, it said "logical partition". So, it seems that journaling is still turned off.
Questions:
1. Is it a problem to have journaling off?
2. Should I turn it on? and if so, what is the command line to do it? (enable journaling icon is greyed out in disk utility)
3. Also when booting up, there is a status bar that takes about 90 seconds to finish to get into the desktop. Is this normal, or could it be related to lack of journaling? I don't appear to be experiencing any other problems.
Thanks in advance.

I still have Mavericks on my work computer. This is the functionality I want to enable on Yosemite:
That way if I switch the from field I can also switch the SMTP server to match. I can not find anyway to make Yosemite pair the correct from address to the correct SMTP server, or a way to manually select the SMTP server (as was possible in Mavericks).

Can't Enable Journaling

So, Im trying to Install windows Vista on my new Macbook pro, When I attempted to install it through bootcamp it said I need to "Enable Journaling" However when I open my Disc Utility I can't click on the option to enable journaling. Its unselectable.
Quick question, would enabling journaling cause me to loose data?

Hi nonfikshun,
1/ You should post what Mac you're using - will help with helping you...
2/ Windows 6 doesn't exist - you meant win 7?
3/ Did you just try to restart the computer? (and see if it might work) sometime it gets fixed by itself...
4/ Try to start from (Mac OS) install DVD, choose your language, go to Menu Bar (on top), find/choose 'Disk Utilities', choose Mac HD, 'Repair Disk', 'Repair disk Permissions'.
(You can also repair your windows partition with 'Disk Utilities' - I had done it MANY times {without any problems afterwards} - but it's NOT generally recomended).

Do I need to repair after enabling journaling on MBP with software update?

My new 17" 2.4GHz MacBook Pro for some reason came without journaling turned on. Now the new MacBook Pro Software Update 1.0 wants to enable journaling, but the instructions says I need to do a disk repair afterwards booting from the OS X DVD. Unfortunately I don't have the DVD with me as I'm on a long trip.
Do I really need to do the repair afterwards? Could I just as well enable journaling from Disk Utility without running the software update? Or should I wait until I get back? I've had some stability issues with the MBP and therefore want to enable journaling to see if that makes things more stable.

Actually... I don't believe you "have" to run disk repair afterwards. The info posted by Apple states "Note: After MacBook, MacBook Pro Software Update 1.0 has been installed, the Macintosh startup volume will have journaling enabled.":
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306442
I believe the idea behind running the disk repair is just precautionary. I have updated a MacBook and three MacBook Pros and ran the disk repair utility from the install disks. The utility did not find any issues with any of the four machines I ran the update on. If you don't have access to your install DVD now... just run it when you get back home. To be honest... I expect the VAST majority of users out there will just install the update and never go through the step of going through a disk repair from the install DVD.

Disabled Mac Hotkeys on iTunes through terminal

So I had spotify and wanted to control spotify with the hotkeys instead of it getting confused with iTunes. I disabled the hotkey control through terminal and all went well. Now, that I am going back to iTunes, the hotkeys do not work. Volume up and down go to the dashboard and such. Does anyone have the code that will re-enable the hotkey support that I can enter in terminal?

A phono input expects a much different signal than a tape input. The signal from the AirPort Express (AX) is much greater amplitude and has a different equalization curve than a phono signal.

p.s i have no experience in apple imac's at all never used before, but im kinda windows nerd so computers i understand but this imac make my insane, cant seem to find any solutions anywhere on the WWW....

Your HD may be crashed, so you probably should use the oringinal install discs to run Apple Hardware Test in extended mode. If error codes appear this confirms a hardware failure. In addition you cannnot repair the HD using Disk Utility from the startup disk, you have to use the origninal Install discs that shipped with the computer or the most up-to-date version of OS X on a disc that you have.

Enabling Journal approval in 11.5.10.2

Hi all,
We have to enable journal approval in Oracle General Ledger on 11.5.10.2 .Can anyone suggest the steps for implementing this process.
Regards,
Sushank Vashishtha

Hi Mujeeb,
To enable Journal approval you need to do the following:
1)In your set of books journal approval should be enabled
2)Define employees(in GL ,in case you are using HRMS you need to define there) and their supervisors
3)Go to Journal Source form and check the box "requires approval"
4)In profile options set "Allow Preparer Approval" to yes
5)In profile options set "Find Approver method" to the appropriate value for your setup
6)Define Authorisation limit in your GL setup
Now Journal approval is ready to be used!!!

Sushank

Enabling Journals in a Model in SAP BPC 10.0 MS

Hi,
Where does one enable journals functionality in SAP BPC 10.0 MS?
Here's the background:
I created a new Environment from EnvironmentShell
Worked on dimensions, member sheets etc. in the Consolidation Model
In the SAP Web Administration, Consolidation Monitor, I get the error Initialization Failed when clicking on the Journal item in the TreeView on the left. Clicking on the See Details, I get the error JOURNAL_NOT_ENABLED.
In the Planning and Consolidation Administration Client, I get a similar error when clicking on Define Journal Validation Rules or Define Journal Translation Rules. (Journal in not enabled in Consolidation)
I then thought I would be clever and modified the column 'Journal' in the table dbo.tblApp by putting a '1' there.
Refreshing the Planning and Consolidation Administration Client, I see that for the Consolidation Model, the Journals are specified as 'in use'. However, returning to the SAP Web Administration and clicking on the Journal option, the error I now get is 'Invalid object name dbo.jrnAddedItems', probably because my backdoor hack circumvented some code.
Where does one enable journals in a Model on the MS 10.0 platform? For the life of me, I can't find it. This despite much searching. Clearly I am missing something obvious.
Kind Regards
Nick

Hi Arnold,
Thanks. Yip, that's it. (I knew I was missing something remarkably obvious - it's just that I could not find it for some strange reason.)
Again, many thanks.
Kind Regards

Hibernate macbook pro through terminal hibernatemode 25

Hibernate macbook pro through terminal hibernatemode 25 on mountlion does it harm system

The real lesson is: Don't do something you know nothing about.
Open the Terminal and enter or paste:
pmset -g
Press RETURN. This will list your current settings. You are interested in the setting named "hibernatemode." Most likely you will find it is "3". If so then enter or paste:
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 1
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password and press RETURN again.

How Enabling ERP Integrator Drill Through from a Grid

Hi All,
Can any one tell me how to see the source data by using FR.
some where i saw we can see this by using Enabling ERP Integrator Drill Through from a Grid.
but i dont know how to set this...
can any one help on this...

Incidentally we had been trying to use Essbase studio as an option.But there are 2 oints that we are trying to investigate.
1) Can we bypass deployment of data and metadata everytime through Essbase studio after the initial outline is delpoyed? In the system architecture the relational tables are populated using ODI. We would like to load the data and metadata through ODI into the cube. Eeven then can we implement drill thru bypassing deployment through Essbase Studio?
2) If Essbase studio is imperative for drill through then what are the batch automation options for deployment through Essbase studio? Ideally the option should be after the relational tables are populated through ODI then the Essbase deployment should be invoked and batch script should load the data and metadata through Essbase Studio.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Anirban

SSL connection works through terminal and Firefox only

I have issue with SSL connection.
It works through terminal and Firefox only. Everything else requiring SSL is down including App Store. I can't fix the problem by updating software, nor reinstalling as softwareupdate and hdiutil mount patch you via SSL at the end.
No apparent reason.... It all worked fine last night.
Does anyone know what is it and how to fix it?
Thanks.

MurphyCooper,
this might be worth a shot: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Has this made any difference?

Help! i have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I want to download os x Mavericks and it says I have to enable journaling or reformat my disk??

Help!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You just need to enable journaling.
To do it, open Disk Utility (in /Applications/Utilities) and choose your OS X partition (in most cases, "Macintosh HD") in the Disk Utility sidebar. Then, in the Disk Utility toolbar, you can find an option called "Enable journaling", so press it.
Finally, run the Mavericks installer again and follow the steps

Is it possible to enable / disable personal hotspot through MDM?

Is it possible to enable / disable personal hotspot through MDM?

If you are using the Smartbar you just enable or disable the relevant Menu Item using SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY and that will automatically enable or disable the corresponding Button.
(you will need to use the Menu module menudefs.mmb which is a MMB version of the standard menu and smartbar and from that you can get the names of all the menu items.)
If it is a normal toolbar canvas with buttons on it you can use SET_ITEM_PROPERTY to enable and disable the buttons

Installing Client Combo 10.7.4 through Terminal?

This is totally unacceptable!! I've had this Thunderbolt Update problem since Tuesday morning and still pulling my hair out from it. I have run out of options in fixing this. Ive been using SL for over a year and only upgraded to Lion last week before this update screwed up my Mac. I can't reinstall Lion from disc recovery because some else installed it and I don't have the apple id to re download it. My other problem is I don't have another mac to do the target disk mode. I have 700gb of unbacked up data and I can't lose everything. I have the client combo update 10.7.4 on disk and I downloaded it and have it in my downloads folder. My trouble is I've tried mounting it from the disk and updating but it's not working. I've also tried from the downloads section but im having a lot of trouble with terminal. Can someone kindly help me mount and update it through terminal in startup because the directions I've followed hasn't helped me. Shame on you apple for infecting us with such a small screw up but causing massive problems. Release a fix to go back to previous settings!!

Have you got issues? I've clearly said it's not and it was installed just to check out Lion and see how it was. Your making speculations about something that's not so if your not going to help don't say anything. I own a $3000 Mac as if a $29 operating system is going to be much and if they do things right maybe they will deserve it then. If Apple had released a working update with no bugs everyone else having the same problem would be stress free.

Trying to install Lion. says this disk is not enabled (journaled) - but when I look at the drive it actually is os extended journaled - Stuck! Have tried repair disk permissions and still no luck

trying to install Lion. says this disk is not enabled (journaled) - but when I look at the drive it actually is os extended journaled - Stuck! Have tried repair disk permissions and still no luck - any thoughts? Have spent two weeks trying to get apple support and itunes to help me get lion after a hard drive fail and now they are closed and I really just want to get moving!

Are you installing OS X Lion over an existing installation of Snow Leopard, or are you reinstalling?
First be sure you have everything on your system backed up. Then reboot with the Command-R keys held to get to the OS X Lion recovery volume. In here, select Disk Utility and use the First Aid tab in here to run a verification on your boot drive. If there are any errors, fix them and then try the installation again.
The next step would be to format the drive, so with your backup secured, use Disk Utility's Erase tab to re-format the drive to Mac OS X Extended (journaled), and then quit Disk Utilty and attempt the installation again.

Error Enabling Journaling with diskutil enableJournal diskXsX

I have few large backup volumes built specifically as HFS+ with Journaling disabled but now I notice problems where we have to wait very long time for hfs_fsck to complete its checkup and have decided to go back and enable journaling but keep getting errors. Here is more detail:
After I ran:
sudo fsck_hfs /dev/disk14s3
And it completed without problem then I ran:
sudo diskutil enableJournal disk14s3
Which gives me following error:
An error occured journaling the filesystem
Checking volume info it shows:
File System: HFS+
Owners: Enabled
Partition Type: Apple_HFS
Bootable: Is bootable
Media Type: Generic
Total Size: 9.2 TB
Free Space: 548.3 GB
Read Only: No
Ejectable: Yes
I have unmounted and mounted this volume without problem and have tried different variations of "diskutil enableJournal xxx" but everytime I get same error. I've also "Disk Utility" Enable Journaling option with no success and have tried diskutil with "sudo -s" option and tried "diskutil disableJournal xxx" and it shows:
Journaling was already disabled on the volume
I have another similar volume that has 2 TB available space and am getting same error not enabling journaling. First volume has around 85,000 files and second one close to 800,000.
Appreciate any input?

I'm able to enable journaling on all other volumes under 2TB beside those large ones (9TB). I've tried "mount_hfs -j -c /dev/disk13s3 /Volumes/BadJournal" and when I ran "diskutil info disk13s3" it shows File System is "HFS+ Journaled" which shouldn't be the case and after I ran "disktool -r disk13s3" it reverted back and showed HFS+ only. I've also ran multiple hfs_fsck, diskutil repairDisk, and reboot which don't show any problem and still not able to enable journaling.
Could this be a limitation of diskutil not able to enableJournal for 9TB volumes or volumes with large number of files?
Appreciate any help
