Folder for Macintosh Apps

Is there something like a folder for Macintosh Apps (as on iPhone/iPad)? Right now the Mac Apps I've downloader are swallowing my dock. There must be an App for That!

How to creat a Password protected folder for pics, apps, contacts

I have kids who like to use my ipad and iPhone to play their games. But they can also sometimes accidentally click on apps of mine which they surely should not. Is there a way to put my apps which I would like to keep from them in a folder and then make it so that folder has to have a pass code to enter? I have not seen any thing like this and don't now why

There is nothing like that because Apple hasn't included the feature. Third party app developers don't have access to the iOS at that level. Submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

Saving files for metro apps in Windows 8/8.1 when printing

Hi,
I have a query regarding saving files for metro apps Windows 8/8.1.
Metro apps saves the file automatically to the Document folder when we print.
But I would like to save the files into a recommened folder like C:\users\tmp\
Please suggest me, is there a way to save the files to a particular folder for metro apps in Windows 8/8.1.
Thanks in Advance
Regards

As far as I know (and I may be wrong), there's no built-in file saving when printing documents. How are you confirming that?
You can save the file anywhere you want, as long as the user chooses the folder location using the FolderPicker.

Creating file in vs 13 for windows app

I want to create a csv file in the root folder for my app. The file should be created only if it doesn't exist, if it exists it should just add data in new line in the same file.

You can't rely on creating files where your programme is installed.
Most users will not have create permission nowadays.
You can easily prove this yourself.
Open file explorer.
navigate to a folder under programs where you have something installed.
Right click on an empty bit and choose New on the menu.
On my win8.1 machine I see Folder as the only option.
They changed this since I think Win7 but maybe also Vista.
You should use AppData.
This helper gets you the location of Appdata on the machine and adds your programme's namespace for a folder within that:
public static class AppData
public static string Location = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(
Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData), System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().EntryPoint.DeclaringType.Namespace);
This code here is serialising an object to FontDetails.xml in such a folder:
private void Application_Exit(object sender, ExitEventArgs e)
var fileName = Path.Combine(AppData.Location, "FontDetails.xml");
if (!Directory.Exists(AppData.Location))
Directory.CreateDirectory(AppData.Location);
FontDetails fd = Application.Current.Resources["FontDetails"] as FontDetails;
DataContractSerializer ser = new DataContractSerializer(typeof(FontDetails));
var xmlSettings = new XmlWriterSettings { Indent = true, IndentChars = "\t" };
using (var writer = XmlWriter.Create(fileName, xmlSettings))
ser.WriteObject(writer, fd);
Hope that helps.

Kernel Upgrade for all App systems

Hi,
I have to do a Kernel upgrade soon. I have one CI DB cluster and 4 App servers. Do I have to upgrade the kernel on each app system and the CI? I mean, do I have to copy the files to the RUN folder for each App server and for the CI?
Thanks

Hi
Ensure that you are using the SAP kernel recommended together with the latest SAP stacks for your product. For detailed information, see SAP Service Marketplace: http://service.sap.com/sp-stacks
SAP releases Support Package Stacks, including kernel patches, on a regular basis (2-4 times a year). Therefore, we also suggest you create a strategy to implement these stacks periodically.In special cases, you may need to use a more recent kernel patch than the one shipped with the latest Support Package Stack for your product like in case of traces.
Yes you need to update the patch level of all the servers in the system.
Hope this helps!!
Kind Regards

Had Kernel panic and the app folder for my user is empty...

I was using a OWC estat express card and had my second kernel panic in two days (not using it anymore..) but when I restarted the app folder for my user was empty. Now the apps are still on Macintosh HD and in the apps stack in the dock.
So my question is does it matter if I just use the Macintosh HD apps and maybe even drag it into my user or will this cause problems.
Also, I don't have a backup at the moment bc I just upgraded to snow leopard last week...
Thanks!

The app folder for my user had all of my apps earlier today...!
I think that you are the one who is mistaken. All Apple apps are installed to the Applications folder at the root level of your hard drive, not the one in your user folder. If you moved them, some of them would stop working and all of them would stop being updated. Some third party apps will allow themselves to be placed in the user Applications folder, but some will not allow themselves to be installed anywhere other than the main Applications folder, and some will allow themselves to be placed in the user Applications folder but will not work properly if you do so.
So, there's absolutely no way you had all your apps in that folder.

HT4191 iPhone Local Storage "My iPhone" - How do you create this folder for use by the Notes app on a iPhone or iPad? If I want to keep some notes only on my device and not in a cloud environment associated with an e-mail account.

iPhone Local Storage "My iPhone" - How do you create this folder for use by the Notes app on a iPhone or iPad? If I want to keep some notes only on my device and not in a cloud environment associated with an e-mail account. I've seen reference to the "My iPhone" local storage put no mention on how you create this folder or access this folder within the Notes app. I realize storing information in a local storage like this provides no syncing between other iDevices but that is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm running iOS7.0.4 on a iPhone 5S, and a iPad Air. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you go to Settings > Notes > Default Account you will see "On My iPhone" as the default account and the only choice if you have not enabled syncing Notes in Settings >iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. If you have enabled syncing you can still select "On My iPhone" as the default account. When you are in the Notes app you won't see any accounts listed if you have not enabled syncing because they are all in the On My iPhone account and that is the only place possible. It is not a folder that you create.

ICloud for pages app not working on network users having home folder on Mac Mini Lion server

Does anyone know how to make iCloud for pages work on network users having home folder on server, having home folder on local Client iCloud for Pages works fine but when home folder is on Server iCloud for Pages app does not work. My Clients are Running Mountain Lion 10.8.2, my Server is a Mac Mini Lion Server.

Hi Tim,
No fix yet, my home folders reside on a thunderbolt external hard drive, I also tested having home folders on default server HD and no changes, I called Apple Support a while ago, they replicated the issue, it just does not work on network users, they did not say when will it be fix.
The version of Pages I am using is from the Apple Store.

I Would like to know if it is possible to lock a folder or an app like WhatsApp on my iPhone 5s? Please help

No it isn't possible, you can only lock your entire phone by setting up a four digit passcode.

Problem with downloading "Stanford Eclipse for Macintosh Users"

Hi, recently I tried to download Stanford Eclipse for Macintosh Users . The program downloaded but did not open. If you need any additional details, I would be happy to provide them. Thank you for the help!
Computer: Mac OS X 10.9.5
Stanford Eclipse Download: http://see.stanford.edu/see/materials/icspmcs106a/software.aspx

The link your professor provided only downloads, and does not install anything. Look for it in the Downloads folder. The folder they download is zipped, and it may un-zip automatically. They expect you to drag the unzipped 'Eclipse' folder to a location you find convenient.
The package it downloads is a fairly old 32-bit version for Mac OS X 10.5 or later. The link to the Eclipse developer site has newer versions including a 64-bit version if you have a Mac running 64-bit kernel or 10.8 or later.
AS Kappy suggests, executing eclipse.app should give you error messages that point out any deficiencies.

Javascripts folder for Acrobat X on MAC

there is a Javascripts folder for Acrobat 9 under the install location, but I do not see that for the acrobat x installation on MAC.
any ideas?
thanks!

Run this code in the interactove JavaScript console:
app.getPath("app", "javascript");
But since that can be difficult to do with certain mac keyboards, here is what it give me for my system with Acrobat 9:
/Macintosh HD/Applications/Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro/Adobe Acrobat Pro.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaScripts/
It should be similar for Acrobat 10.
For Reader 10, I have: /Macintosh HD/Applications/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/Resources/JavaScripts/
If you're looking for the user JavaScript folder, try this:
app.getPath("user", "javascript");
