How do i flush dns on OS X 10.9.2

i need help how to flush dsn on osx 10.9.2

Get (free) Onyx for 10.9. You can do it with that.
Oops, wrong, thought it could do that.
In Terminal
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache;sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
You will be asked for your admin pword when you run this command (copy and paste) You won't see it in any form when you type it in.
Actually, had a better look. Onyx can do that. Close all browsers before doing this.

How to Flush DNS Cache in Mavericks 10.9.3

Flushing dns mac os 10.9.2?

When I run suggested protocol to flush DNS (dscacheutil -flushcache;sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder) nothing happens.
What I am really trying to do: I have an accumulation of websites that pop up as suggestions when I want to create a document hyperlink to a site on the web. i want to clear this list. Is that part of the DNS cache flush?
If not, how can I get rid of this list?
If so, why doesn't the protocol above work?
Thanks...

Thanks. I didn't ask the question very well.
I am doing a power point presentation and am creating hot links to pages of websites.
In the dialog box to insert a hyper link there is a field at the top ("link to") in which the destination website address is supposed to be entered.
There are "suggested" websites in a list that shows up when I click on the arrow to the right this field.
I don't want that list to appear any more.
I thought it would be something to do with erasing a cache...so I tried to do a DNS flush as I describe, above, but nothing happened. I entered the two commands (one after the other) and all I got was a new line on which to enter another command.
My main goal is to get rid of that list in the insert hyperlink dialog box -- I don't like any such lists.
I am now, additionally, interested in why the DNS flush does not apparently work.
Thanks for any help you might be able to give.

IPhone flush DNS

The IP address of my mai server changed about 18 hours ago but my iphone still can't resolve to the new address, nor does Safari find the new address for that matter. How can I flush the DNS in my iPhone or do I have to just wait and, if so, how long do you think it takes ATT/iPhone to resolve to the new address?

If you changed the IP-Adress in the DNS Server of your Domain, you have to wait till 24 hours.
To flush caches on your iPhone just reset it.

How to set up DNS behind a NAT router...

I am trying to configure DNS in Panther Server as the SOA for my domains and as a LAN name server. I've read several explainations about setting up DNS including technical document 106853 "How to set up DNS in a NAT environment" which says:
Note: For Mac OS X Server 10.3 or later, you should use the Server Admin
application to configure DNS and NAT. Please see the Network Services
Administration Guide for additional information.
Seeing how picky BIND is, this sounds like a good idea, except I can't configure views like that.
Questions:
1) What happens if I create an A record in my main domain for newmac.mydomain.com-->10.0.1.2? People outside the LAN can't get to it, right?
2) Can I create really simple names for the LAN like newmac-->10.0.1.2?
Thanks!

You can use "system-config-network" command to configure your DNS configuration.

Flush DNS

I have been told to flush my DNS by my webhost so that I can view my website control panel icons and access my webmail
The fix worked, however, when I went to the Mac store, I was told NEVER to do this because I could end up with a useless machine if I make an error
A few days later I am again, unable to use my website software and access my webmail
The host has told me to repeat flush DNS
Surely I shouldn't have to do this every time I want to check my emails if there is a risk that I will render my Mac useless?
Please advise
Thank you

Thank you for the response
I have rebooted it but I still can't access my webmail and my icons are still missing on my control panel
I am not in a position to change my host at the moment, is there anything else I can do?
Thank you again.

How can I flush/repair installed programs in the Application Manager / Creative Cloud?

Hi. I had installed a few of the Adobe programs through the Application Manager/Creative Cloud service on a Windows 7 system. The system crashed, forcing me to recover from a prior time backup, which was from before I installed the programs. Now, the Adobe Application Manager shows the prior programs as "Installed", and will not allow me to re-install them. These programs *do not* appear in Window's "Uninstall Programs" listing for me to uninstall manually, *nor* do they appear in the Start Menu to launch. And as far as I can tell, they no longer have Registry entries.
How do I flush the Application Manager to tell it that I do not have these programs installed anymore, or force it to re-install?
Thanks.

I don't believe the data on what is installed and what is not is held at Adobe; I think it is in your particular instance of the AAM that "knows" what is installed.
I'm not sure what happened to me will help you or not but... Also, I have a Mac not a Win7 system.
In my case, I had Acrobat X Pro and I download Acrobat XI. Acrobat does not like to install when there is an older version already on the machine. Adobe tells you to unistall the older version and then install the new version. Why this isn't in their install scripts is beyond me. The installer for Acrobat XI ran sucessfully. I didn't realize the problem until I went to open a PDF.
I manually uninstalled Acrobat X. Still had problems. Then I manually uninstalled Acrobat XI. (Both times I used the uninstaller Adobe provides.) I started AAM and it showed the XI installed. I tried the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool. The tool is supposed to clear out any left overs after an uninstall and thus "flush" AAM. When I ran the Cleaner, Acrobat XI didn't show up in the list of programs. I eventually found a second uninstaller for Acrobat XI that cleaned things up such that AAM agreed I needed to install the software.
With the disk-based installs, when you ran the installer you got an option to "repair" the current installation. Why you have to jump through all the hoops that AAM has not is beyond me. It would seem more rational to put options into AAM directly to let you re-install things or repair them. This is one where Adobe dropped the ball.

How do I flush the dns?

My laptop is running really slow. I have done all of the normal stuff like deleting internet temep & the cache. I was told that "Flushing the DNS" could help me but my Son only has pc's so didn't know how to do it on a Mac.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you in advance! ~Laurie

Cache and temp files exist to increase performance and should not require manual deletion.
The first thing to do is ensure you have adequate backups, because what you describe can be a symptom of impending disk failure.
To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting. There are four separate parts to it; read everything first.
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:
Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Read about it here. It contains a link to download EtreCheck. Don't download it from anywhere else (such as may be found by following the results of an Internet search).
Click Open - etresoft contributes to this forum frequently and can be considered a trustworthy developer.
It will take a moment to run as it collects its data.
Copy and paste its output in a reply.
Do not be concerned about anything that says "Problem" or “failed” or anything else that may appear in red.
EtreCheck was designed to remove any personal information (such as your computer's name and serial numbers) but if you see anything that looks like an email address or any other personal information that should not be divulged to others, please delete or obscure that information when you post the reply.
When you are finished with EtreCheck, quit the program. It occupies very little space, and you can keep it or drag it to the Trash as you wish.
After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
System performance problems for reasons that cannot be isolated to any other cause justify an SMC reset. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.
