Installing Plugins via Terminal (Mac)

I would like to be able to install plugins in Extension Manager via terminal and enable the installed plugins for a specific set of extensions (InCopy).  I have downloaded the Adobe Extension Manager Help and Tutorials document and it explains the process of installing plugins via terminal.  But when I run the install command, it actually launches Extension Manager in the console.
I want to be able to install extensions and plugins silently and even when the user is not logged in.  Is this possible and can someone point me to a document which explains the process?

For your coworker's issue, besides database file and plugin files, you also have to include files in EM Store folder and Mxi Flag folder.
If your extension is per-machine extension (all files in extension will be installed to per-machine location), you have to include "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db", "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/EM Store/InCopy CS6/*.*" and "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Mxi Flag/InCopy CS6/*.*"
If your extension is per-user extension (all files in extension will be installed to folder under user home), you have to include "/Users/<UserName>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Configuration/DB/ExManUser.db", "/Users/<UserName>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/EM Store/InCopy CS6/*.*" and "/Users/<UserName>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Mxi Flag/InCopy CS6/*.*".
You also have to ensure all the machines have the same user name.

  • Installing STRUCTURE via Terminal

    I am attempting to install the program STRUCTURE via Terminal. I have installed other programs via Terminal w/ no problems. However, I now get the line:
    mkdir: /usr/local/Structure/: Permission denied
    I tried going into the script and replacing /usr/local w/ my own directory info. Permission is then not denied, however, the installation fails. What am I doing wrong?

    If you're not using sudo when you're running the installer, you need to use it.

  • Install program via terminal

    Hello, all. I should admit straight away that my use for terminal is pretty limited. Basically, I use it for changing permissions and for using mysql. So, I was a little puzzled when I recently tried to install a program and the read me file told me to use the command line to go to the appropriate directory and then run the install file. Does anyone know how I should go about actually doing this? As I said, my experience with terminal is limited, so forgive the newbieness of this question.

    Most command line apps include a command-line installer, but there is no absolute method for it - the documentation that came with the app should tell you.
    In general you'll use cd to change to the directory where the installer is, then run some kind of install script (like ./install but, again, the docs should give you the specifics.

  • Installing FCP using terminal

    friends: i want to try and install final cut pro HD 4.5 on my macbook air 11 inch running 10.7.2 (if possible). this same program is running great on my other macbook air 11 inch using a slightly earlier OS X (Lion?). 10.7.2 as you know does not support 10.7.2, but i have heard that sometimes it is just the installer that needs the powerpc so i am trying to install it via terminal. the problem is, i do not know how to configure my string properly. when i drop the .app into the terminal window i get this location:
    /Users/mycomputername/Desktop/Final\ Cut\ Pro\ HD.app
    and i was using variations of this:
    sudo installer -package /Users/mycomputername/Desktop/Final\ Cut\ Pro\ HD.app -target /
    try not to laugh, i am not a coder, just trying to get my computer to run this program that i love. the new FCP is too expensive and i don't even like it. if you can assist me in creating the proper string i would be grateful. i know that someone was able to install final cut studio using this method.
    thanks so much for your help!

    I do not use Final Cut Pro, but I play one on Television!
    Here is a quote from Wikipedia:
    In April 2004, version 4.5 of Final Cut Pro was introduced and branded by Apple as "Final Cut Pro HD" due to its native support for Panasonic's tape-based DVCPRO HDformat for compressed 720p and 1080i HD over FireWire. (The software had been capable of uncompressed HD editing since version 3.0, but at the time had required expensive video cards and high speed storage.)
    Any program written in 2004 would have been a PowerPC application.  After Apple migrated all of its future Macs to the Intel platform in 2006, it included in OS X Tiger (and later Leopard, and optionally in Snow Leopard) emulation software that would allow most PowerPC apps to continue to run in Intel.  This sofware was based upon technology that Apple licensed from a 3rd party and which Apple called Rosetta.
    Apple's license to include Rosetta in newer versions of OS X expired with Lion and now Mt. Lion.
    Hence no matter how well you use Terminal, or even Pacifist to install FCP 4.5, it just will NEVER run under Lion on your Mac.
    If your MacBook Air 11" is old enough (2010, MacBookAir3,1) to boot and run Snow Leopard, you can either partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it.  You can then "dual-boot" into Snow Leopard when you want to run FCP 4.5 or into Lion when you need iCloud or otherwise.
    Alternatively you can install Snow Leopard Server into Parallels 8 on any 11" MacBook Air and have FCP 4.5 running concurrently with Lion, such as here where the PowerPC app Appleworks is running on a Lion Mac:
                                  [click on image to enlarge]
    Apple is now selling Snow Leopard Server for $19.99 + sales tax & shipping costs at 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A (telephone orders only).
    Parallels offers a 14 day free trial download from its website.  It sells retail for $79 but can be found for a discount on the internet.
    NOTE: You are confusing your version with Final Cut Express 3.5 and Final Cut Studio 2, both of which will run in Lion, but whose installers have problems in Lion and Mt. Lion due to a "bug" in the installer program.  For those versions, as pointed out in Jeremy Johnstone's blog, using Terminal (or alternatively, using Pacifist) to install will achieve success in using those versions in Lion.

    It appears as if my startup disk has been reversed and not using the fusion ssd portion as it should.  At least its now reversed as to what it used to be originally before.  the 128gb ssd used to be on top.  Is my mac booting fusion correctly?  Thank you for responding as I was about to reformat.

  • How do  I Install Windows 7 on Mac Book Pro via a Bootable USB Drive

    Hi Guys,
    I have a Mac Book Pro 13 inch, Early 2011 Processor  2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 (I initially had OS 10.5.8 which I upgraded to OSX 10.9.4 a few months ago).
    When purchased it, I installed Windows via Super Drive (that being the only time i ever used the super drive). My Windows got corrupted for some reason 2 months ago. Hence, I removed the windows via Bootcamp to perform a fresh install. I discovered my Super Drive was no longer working.
    Thereon I have been trying to install Windows via a bootable USB Drive but am failing to do so. After going through several forums, I have reached the following stage.
    1. Created Bootable Windows USB Drive using Windows USB (http://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Bootable-Windows-7-or-Vista-USB-Drive). Have used this USB drive to install windows on a DELL Computer
    2. Bootcamp wasnt creating a partition for windows since no Windows Installation disc was being detected in super drive. (Solved it by downloading Toast Titanium and loading the .iso file on a virtual drive).
    3. Boot menu was initially not detecting external drive, so installed rEFIt - An EFI Boot Menu and Toolkit. Now it is detecting the USB Drive.
    Now when I boot from this device, it get a black screen with the message "No bootable device - Insert Boot Disk"
    Request someone to please help me install windows as some softwares which I work with are windows based.

    So my understanding is that my Boot Camp Assistant (BCA), since it does not allow USB installer, it sets NVRAM to boot from Optical Drive. Right?
    Yes.
    So can I change it or update it to another BCA version which supports the same??
    All BCA versions drive the logic based on the Mac Model Identifier. Unfortunately there is no real workaround. .

    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...

  • Installing packages in terminal in mac os x 10.6.2

    **** all =),
    I am sorry if I put this topic in a wrong group but I am here first time. I feel a bit overwhelmed here.
    I found that there are some applications which can be installed only from terminal because for os x 10.6.2 there's no binaries yet. Can someone please give me a link or explain how to install those applications in terminal. I have already install Xcode package.
    thanks in advance

    In that case, you just need to be asking in the right place, which isn't here, but you're close. There are a couple developer forums, found under Mac OS X Technologies on the main discussions page. Here's a direct link:
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=164
    Of course, I still think that "straight from the horse's mouth" is the best bet.

    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here is some information that you may find helpful with this issue. 
    I'm not receiving the verification code via SMS.
    Make sure that you have a strong cellular network connection on your phone.
    Make sure that your phone number can receive SMS messages. You can do this by asking someone to send you a text message.
    Make sure that the correct phone number is associated with your account:
    iOS 7.0.3 or later: Tap Settings > iCloud > Account, then tap Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later: Choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number listed under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    If you can't access a device that has iCloud Keychain enabled, you can contact Apple Support and verify your identity to get help completing iCloud Keychain setup.

    and is there a problem with my mac.   the program loads on my pc and it is for either windows or mac,

    Yeah the default program for installing Applications somehow got changed from the proper program to Terminal.
    Right click on the App .DMG file and select Open With. It should say DiskImageMounter.App. If it says Terminal then select Other, at the bottom of the list, and then find DiskImageMounter.app.
    Or after you right click on it select Get Info thenn in the Open With area select Other then find DiskImageMounter.app.
    By the way you are in the correct forum. It is a Mac problem.

  • Is there any way to verify that your installed plugins are up to date without using the Plugincheck page via Tools/AddOns/Plugins/Find Updates ?

    I installed Firefox 3.6.13 on a new computer and updated the plugins via the Plugincheck page. Now when I visit the Plugincheck page, it says "No plugins detected" although several plugins are installed as indicated in the Addons dialog box and About:Plugins page. The Plugincheck page used to show all the installed plugins and flag them as either up to date, out of date, or unable to detect the version.

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

    iv unistalled flash, iv checked plug ins it just wont work,

    It would have been a great help to know precisely what Mac you have, so some of the following may not apply:
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 or later is for Snow Leopard onwards.
    (If you are running Mavericks: After years of fighting malware and exploits facilitated through Adobe's Flash Player, the company is taking advantage of Apple's new App Sandbox feature to restrict malicious code from running outside of Safari in OS X Mavericks.)
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
    When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
    You can also try these illustrated instructions from C F McBlob to perform a full "clean install", which will resolve the "Blocked Plug-in" message when trying to update via the GUI updater from Adobe.
    Use the FULL installer for 12.0.0.44:  Flash Player 12 (Mac OS X)
    And the instructons are here: Snow Leopard Clean Install.pdf
    (If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, try the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the version 11.5.502.55:)
    Download this http://scriptogr.am/nordkril/post/adobe-flash-11.5-for-powerpc to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • How can I enable java applet plug-in and Web Start applications via terminal?

    Since the last Java update to Snow Leopard, I have found that the system periodically disables the Java applet plug-in after a period of disuse.  I know I can go to /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences and just click to re-enable Java.  But I want to write a script which will do this periodically for a couple hundred Mac users where I work. 
    My question is - how can I reenable the Java applet plug-in and web start applications via Terminal command?  Is this possible?  Is there a plist file that can be modified, etc.?
    Bob Reed

    It is my understanding that Apple's most recent Java update automatically disables Java after a certain period of time that it hasn't been used.  We don't want users to have to keep re-enabling it.  So we wanted to find a way to do this via script either run by a Casper JSS server or stored locally on each workstation.   With the guidance provided by Mark Jalbert above and some text from a script written by Rich Trouton, I was able to make a script (with some minor changes) and a launch agent to re-run the script upon login.  So the preference is always enabled.
    For your reference, the script content is:
    #!/bin/sh
    # DYNAMICALLY SET THE UUID FOR THE BYHOST FILE NAMING
    if [[ `ioreg -rd1 -c IOPlatformExpertDevice | grep -i "UUID" | cut -c27-50` == "00000000-0000-1000-8000-" ]]; then
    MAC_UUID=`ioreg -rd1 -c IOPlatformExpertDevice | grep -i "UUID" | cut -c51-62 | awk {'print tolower()'}`
    elif [[ `ioreg -rd1 -c IOPlatformExpertDevice | grep -i "UUID" | cut -c27-50` != "00000000-0000-1000-8000-" ]]; then
    MAC_UUID=`ioreg -rd1 -c IOPlatformExpertDevice | grep -i "UUID" | cut -c27-62`
    fi
    # Set the the "Enable applet plug-in and Web Start Applications" setting in the Java Preferences for the current user.

  • How do you retrieve a folder from a website via Terminal?

    Can anyone clearly explain how to accomplish this? Thanks!

    You could try curl
    curl ftp://web.site.addr/path/to/file/to/download -o output.file
    curl http://web.side.addr/whatever -o output.file
    see the "man curl" man page for all the details.
    And if you download and install a version of wget you will have the ability to recursively download a folder and all its files and subfolders. If you decide you need something like wget you could use something like MacPorts.org to get a copy. Or you could Google search for "Mac OS X wget".

  • Dock icons disappeared after the Dock app killed via terminal

    Hello, I'm running the new OS X Mavericks on a late 09' Mac Mini, my problem started when I had finished updating Grageband.
    When the update was over, from some reason the Grageband icon became invisible, so i tried using the "killall Dock" commend via terminal to restart the dock.
    And it took considerably longer then usual, and when it came back up, most of the icons became invisible too,  well, as I'm pretty sure it's a one time bug and it will be resolved when I'll restart the machine I'll relog to my user, is that happened to anyone else? and is there anything I can do to prevent this problem in the future?
    Thank you in advance. Omer.

    I just did a clean install on my 2011 MM and am having the same issue. Whats the terminal kill for the dock?
    Ive added a screen shot. Can't drag and drop the trash can....:-/
    Looked up the cmd and now I have a properly working dock. Didnt have to drag any apps out either
    "killall Dock"
