How can I completely and totally destroy these processes?
Once a minute these two processes (one for Boxee and one for Glims) will run. Both have been uninstalled as completely as I can see how (ran the uninstaller for Glims, nothing in Application Support, all related .plist files), but launchd apparently is still looking for them. I know it doesn't seem like much but this poor G4 sometimes needs all the help it can get so I am trying to eliminate all errant processes...
Here is what the system log is reporting:
May 21 15:17:56 richard-bensons-powerbook-g4-15 com.apple.launchd[98] (com.machangout.glims.agent[46635]): Exited with exit code: 1
May 21 15:17:56 richard-bensons-powerbook-g4-15 com.apple.launchd[98] (com.machangout.glims.agent): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds

May 21 15:18:03 richard-bensons-powerbook-g4-15 com.apple.launchd[98] (tv.boxee.helper): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
Any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA!
Hi,
May 21 15:17:56 richard-bensons-powerbook-g4-15 com.apple.launchd98 (com.machangout.glims.agent):
May 21 15:18:03 richard-bensons-powerbook-g4-15 com.apple.launchd98 (tv.boxee.helper)
Is there a launchd plist that I can delete?
There might be. Remember though, that the .plist extension means the file is a "property list," which refers to the file's format, not it's function. Many .plist files are not "preferences" and are not found in Preferences folders. The files used by launchd to create launch daemons and launch agents are in property list format and so have .plist extensions.
Your log report above suggests the existence of two such files:
com.machangout.glims.agent.plist
and
tv.boxee.helper.plist
After some Googling, it looks as if com.machangout.glims.agent.plist normally gets installed in
HD>Library>LaunchAgents
and that tv.boxee.helper.plist normally gets installed in
HD>Users>username>Library>LaunchAgents
So if you haven't already looked in those two places, I would do so. If you find those files, delete them and reboot.

I am running Firefox 4.0 for desktop, running Windows XP 32bit.
I have looked at putting all the similar tabs into a bookmark folder and saving it but this would require me to individually open up all my tabs, from which I could start to organise them better. Is there a more efficient and effective way of solving my problem? If I have to follow this method, will deleting the tabs after they've been put into bookmark folders, affect the storage of these tabs?
Thanks.You can use "Bookmark All Tabs" to place those tabs in one bookmarks folder.
You can open all links in a folder by middle-clicking this folder.
* "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar. -
I recently had to replace my hard drive and lost my iTunes library. When I try to transfer the content from my iPod to iTunes on the new hard drive (same computer), it would only let me transfer iTunes store purchases. How can I complete the transfer of all the content on the iPod back onto the computer?

Hi, Unfortunately my Laptop has died (which had my iTunes on it). I want to ensure my music on my iPhone 5 and my iPad Air are backed up. Also, I want to sort my music in the way I used to with iTunes. How can I do this with just these two devices, i.e. NO Computer? Can the iCloud help? Why can't I download iTunes (i.e. my library as I saw it on the computer) to these devices? Thanks to anyone who can help me here.
You can change the email address of one's appleID...
I'd recommend changing moms email to yours to get a good backup on the Mac
Then switch mom's back to hers
Then change your account to the same email you used.
I've done something similar when I needed to update my Apple account (one ID changing email addresses and phone) -
How can i copy and referencing the value of a sub-total of a category into another cell?
How can i copy and referencing the value of a sub-total of a category into another cell?
Cells in Category rows 'exist' only when those categories are inserted using the Reorganize table. Those cells cannot be referenced from other cells.
If you want a category summed, you will need to do that in a cell that is still visible when the table is not sorted into categorie using the Reorganize pane. The function to use is SUMIF. You can find information regarding SUMIF (and SUMIFS) in the iWork Formulas and Functions User Gude. The guide may be downloaded using the link in the Help menu in Numbers '09.

On startup my macbookair says start up disk full/delete some files. When I look at storage disk utility I see 51GB of a possible 60GB is used with Other. What is Other? and how can I view and delete some of these files?
A MacBook will use Time Machine to make local backups so that when connected to an external drive it will backup a lot faster.
to disable this, you must use a command under terminal.
to locate terminal, do a search for it under spotlight (the magnifying glass on the top right corner), should be the first hit.
once under terminal, type the following text exactly:
sudo tmutil disablelocal
hit enter.
you will be asked to input your password, if you do not have a password, you will have to create one before performing this command. after entering your password, hit enter again and close terminal.
in a few minutes the space taken up by time machine should be cleared. -
How can I completely delete an app, so it won't even be listed in the app store under purchased items? And I will stop being prompted to make updates even though I've removed it from my iPad?
Once an app is deleted from an iOs device, you will no longer be prompted for updates. Update alerts only occur for apps curently installed.
Purchases can be hidden (but not completely deleted) from the purchased list, but only using itunes on a computer. -

do you know how to reset the ppi so it is accurate?
Earlier, I wrote:
What is the ppi value in the document? Use the Image - Image Size menu to see or set this value.
I can't believe this conversation has gone on this long. You keep wanting it to be a bug, but it seems to me the basic problem here is that you haven't accepted the fact that YOU are responsible for getting the image metadata in order before you can use tools like the Ruler to read out in physical units, such as inches or centimeters, accurately.
Photoshop can only know the size of things in your document if you or your workflow provide it an accurate ppi value!
What's the original source of the material? A scanner? If so, some part of the scanning or image preparation process has left you with an inaccurate ppi value.
For the documents you're already working with, use Image - Image Size, then UNcheck the Resample Image checkbox and type in the correct ppi value. Then everything will work.

How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.
Csoud1 is correct. But if you still want to keep your iTunes Match subscribed and did not want to sync with your iOS devices, do the following:
On you iOS devices, just go to Setting > Music > disable iTunes Match -

How can I completely remove iTunes and all associated files/programs from my Windows PC?
How can I completely remove iTunes and all associated files/programs from my Windows PC?
iTunes, along with Quick Time, iCloud, Apple Software Update, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support and Apple Application Support can all be removed from your PC by uninstalling them using 'Uninstall or change a program' in Control Panel. The only obvious thing that will be left behind is your iTunes library which remains untouched. If you want to remove that as well it's just a question of deleting it.
Hope that helps. -
I have just transferred all my raw, jpeg & tiff files into LR4 and using the opportunity to delete old raw files to free up disc space. How can i completely remove a raw file from my mac disc??
I'd be careful here: LR references files. It can copy them, like from an SD card to your hard drive, but it doesn't necessarily make duplicates. So when you say you "transferred" those files "into" LR it just means you referenced existing files. And if you delete those they're gone, unless you've made copies. LR does not import files by copying them into a managed library like Aperture does.

My ical is showing "on my mac" "iCloud" and "yahoo" calendars. I just want one calendar that will sync up to my iPhone. How can I get rid of all these Calendars??
'On My Mac' and Yahoo calendars won't sync to iCloud. You can move them to iCloud, but then Yahoo will lose contact with its calendars. if you are happy to sync onlly with iCloud, and thus to your iPhone, you can move the calendars: you will have to do it one at a time, and the process is just a trifle convoluted - it's described in the first set of numbered instructions here:

For some unknown reason I have two Apple ITunes/ID Accounts in operation.
How do I completely delete one of these Accounts?I have a similar situation.. in my case, I started using an Apple ID a while back, then when MobileMe was introduced, I got an account there, and somehow that is the account that is mostly used when making updates or purchases.
Sometimes when making updates, it prompts me for the PW for one account, and sometimes for the other.
This is a real pain - is there anyway both these accounts can be consolidated into one? When I asked an Apple rep, I was told 'no', but they have been known to make mistakes when giving advice. So, is there a way? Technically, I don't see this as a problem.. but Apple seems to be of the opinion that this would lead to having apps 'shared' amoung users. I think all that would be necessary if for me to provide the necessary proof that both accounts are indeed mine, and not belonging to someone else.
If not, what about deleting the apps registered to one account, and then re-purchasing them with the other account? To do this, I would need to identify which apps are registered to which accouts - is this possible? Most of my apps are free, but there are a few I paid for.. not many, so this possible solution might work and not cost too much. Ideas?
