How can I mount an encrypted image automatically and get a password window

Hello
I know how to mount an encrypted image automatically when I login and get myself a password window.  (I actually how I did it at the moment though).  I had a cronjob log me out at say 5am every day and I force myself to login everyday.
Now I have a need to keep the login session forever.  I would therefore like to mount the image automatically at a specified time daily and get the same window prompt.  If do it from a bash prompt with 'hdiutil attach /path' I am getting a password prompt at the bash instead of a password windows.  I am thinking of putting that command in cronjob.
What must I do to get a password window automagically?  If doing it via cronjob is wrong, I am open to other proper Mac way.
Thanks
mr.wu

You can use Automator and iCal. Use Automator's Run Shell Sript action and enter hdiutil attach /path. Save the workflow as an iCal plugin. Set iCal to run the workflow when you want. You can also save the workflow as an application, and set up an iCal alarm to run that application at a specified time.

  • How can I work on same image back and forth from LR 5 to PS CC without constantly creating copies?

    I make basic corrections in LR then "edit copy with changes" in PS. Once I save it back to LR it shows as a second file marked Edit. How can I go back to PS with that file to work on it again? I don't want a bunch of numbered copies, I want one final copy with as many changes as needed.

    It depends on what you're trying to accomplish. I process all of my film scan images in PS initially for crop, dust removal, content aware fill and other "destructive" pixel editing. I then import the files into LR and do most of the tone and color correction with LR. Many times I need to edit the image back in PS to remove more dust spots with the healing tool or content aware fill, etc. To do this I use Edit in PS and choose 'Edit Original.' Of course I don't see the toning and color adjustments made in LR, but for these types of changes it really doesn't matter. After the PS changes are made the file is saved from inside PS and appears inside LR with the new PS changes applied AND the LR adjustments applied.
    You can use the same processing workflow with ACR, PS, and Bridge, but then you lose all of the other features available inside LR.

  • A music album is listed multiple times in my library but each listing only has a few songs in it-not the full listing.  How can I combine them into one album and get rid of other duplicate listings?

    Several music albums listed in my IPhone 5 music library are listed multiple times, but each one only has a portion of the songs listed.  How can I combine them to make one album?

    First....Thank you so much for your prompt reply.  I am sorry for not getting back to you regarding your suggestion-I had computer issues that just got resolved.  Also, this is my first foray into online chat rooms so I have a lot to learn to precisely state my issue!  I did as you suggested and all the songs list the same album when I go into each song's "get info".  However, I am not sure how to edit as you suggested. When I downloaded this album originally, for some reason it broke up into several albums each with different songs from the original album.  I am trying to consolidate them back into one album in my library.  I would greatly appreciate further assistance if you can.  Also, I do not use "the cloud" to store any data and would like a good source of info on how to do this.  Thanks so much for your patience!

  • How can I wait till data is loaded and get the latest entities in HTML CLient

    This is my first try using a JavaScript component. I found a nice timeline-Scheduler on github:
    Timeline Javascript Scheduler
    I made an nearly empt new Screen and I am using LS only to get the data and to switch to the next date.
    This works fine for the first date I set in the created.

  • How can I undo the firefox browser refresh and get my old browser & settings, etc. back?

    I accidentally did the browser refresh yesterday (2-17-2015) without reading further down the page on what that would do. It of course gave me a fresh browser. The problem is I lost my customized appearance (Dark blue fox, I believe), the add-ons I really have come to really on, etc. Firefox did create a folder with the old settings. I'm not that savoy understanding how to get that folder to open, run, whatever it takes to put all the things I want back into working order on the firefox browser. Please excuse my lack of proper terminology, jargon, etc. I know enough to be confused and everything I have learned IT has come from stumbling through it over the last 15 years of having my own PC.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Please keep any solution details as plain and simple for a novas to understand and execute as possible.
    Many, many Thanks, Ottodewy

    When you reset (refresh) Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, form data) is automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved to the desktop to an "Old Firefox Data" folder.
    Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you have made are lost and need to be redone.
    It is possible to recover data from the old profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    Note that is is also possible to use the Profile Manager to create a new profile.
    That way the current profile isn't moved to the desktop, so you can return to it at any time.

  • I have 2 iphones in the family and want to use itunes match on both devices, but my husband has his own itunes acct, how can he use the main itunes library and get out music on his phone also

    "Method Three
    Create a separate iTunes library for each device. Note:It is important that you make a new iTunes Library file. Do not justmake a copy of your existing iTunes Library file. If iTunes is open,quit it.
    This one may work. I searched and searched on the website for something like this, I guess I just didn't search correctly, lol. I will give this a try later. My daughter is not be back for a few weekends, therefore I will have to try the Method 3 when she comes back for the weekend again. "
    I forgot to mention that she has a PC at her house that she also syncs to. Would this cause a problem. I am already getting that pop up saying that the iPod is synced to another library (even though she is signed in with her Apple ID to iTunes) and gives the pop up to Cancel, Erase & Sync, or Transfer Purchases. My question arose because she clicked on "Erase & Sync" by mistake when she plugged the iPod to her PC the first time. When the iPod was purchased and setup, it was synced to my PC first. When she went home, she hooked it up to her PC and then she erased it by accident. I was able to restore all the missing stuff yesterday using my PC. However, even after doing that it still told me the next time I hooked it up last night that the iPod was currently synced with a different library. Hopefully, you can help me understand all this. She wants to sync her iPod and also backup her iPod at both places. Both PCs have been authorised. Thanks

  • How can I take photos on my iPhone and get these on my iPad

    Using iCloud how do I get photos that I've taken on my iPhone to show on my iPad photo stream?

    Sign into the same iCloud account on both devices in Settings>iCloud and turn on My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams in Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream.  After that, new photos added to the camera roll will be streamed to both devices when the camera app is closed, you device is connected to wifi and has at least 20% battery life remaining.
    Photo stream only adds photos take after enabling photo stream.  To use stream photos taken before enabling photo stream to your other devices, create a shared photo stream containing the photos and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).

  • How can i mount dd-image

    Hi.
    1. In case on this device was created just one slice on whole disk:
    lofiadm -a <path_to_mage>
    mount /dev/lofi/1 /mnt
    2. In case was created more than 1 slices. You can use dd for copy every separeted slice to separete file
    and create many lofi-devices.
    dd if=<image> of=<slice_image> skip=<start cyl for this slice> count=<cyl_num> bs=<cyl_size>
    In case you don't know original partition table for this disk, you can read
    /usr/include/sys/vtoc.h
    and try get reguired information with od

  • How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login?

    How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and Active Directory with a goal to automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login? (NOT an option for me to use BitLocker)
    I was asked to deploy EFS to encrypt the user my documents folder and profile on all of the users laptops. The laptops are in common areas (board meeting rooms, etc) and security of files is a must.
    I successfully created a recovery certificate in AD. I created an OU and setup an EFS policy and users can now login and select to encrypt their own files. The issue is that management would like to have automaticy Encrypt ALL users my documents AUTOMATICALLY

  • How can i save an extracted image to be able to edit it

    How can I save an extracted image in pse9 to be able to edit it - i.e. move it around on the layer to another spot and also to be able to resize it to make it bigger or smaller before repasting it back into another image/background?
    Thanks

      A really simple method is to use the quick selection tool to outline a person or object in a photo. Holding down the alt key changes the tool action from plus to minus - so you can perfect your selection as you go along (e.g. if you accidentally select part of the background)
    When you are happy with your selection of the person or object press Ctrl+J - this will automatically create a new transparent layer with your selection as shown by the checkerboard background.
    You can then add any other picture or background - here I’ve used a simple green background to illustrate the point by selecting Layer > New Fill Layer > Solid Color
    I then clicked on the transparent layer in the layer pallet and dragged it to the top - to reveal the green background behind my person selection.
    I then selected the hand tool and the bounding box appeared - by holding down the shift key you can drag the corner handles or sides of the bounding box to resize and then click the green checkmark to confirm OK. You can then drag the image to any position in the frame of your chosen background. Save as PSD to keep your layers for later or click Layer > Flatten Image to save as Jpeg.
