  • Is there a way to turn of error reporting on clients?

    I have PHD setup and working. Everything works fine except for two (unimportant) files which are giving me Posix 102 errors. This wouldn't really be a problem if it wasn't for the fact that I have to acknowledge these errors via two dialog boxes before the machines log out. Since the whole sync takes about 5 minutes it's like watching paint dry before you can finally leave the office.
    Is there a way to turn of the error reporting dialogs during sync so that it just finishes and the machine logs out?
    OS X Server 10.5.6 / OS X 10.5.6

    Yes.
    Its in WorkGroup Manager > select user, group with mobilehomes or whatever you wish to add this adjustment to > Preferences > Details > Double click Home Sync > Turn down the "Always" tab > You should see all of the sync settings you currently have. > Make sure the "Always" line is highlited and press "new key" at the top > a new line now reads New Item > Click on New Item and you will see a variety of options not in the GUI.
    You may want "Suppress logout preference sync errors" or "Suppress logout non-preference sync errors" which do what they say or "logout dialog timeout" which can be set to a number of seconds to display the errors before dismissing them automatically. Or you may wish to add all three. Whichever you choose make sure to edit the "value" field to the right. There are some instructions which appear at the bottom of the window to help clarify what the options are. In any case, if you suppress or do a dialog timeout you will be able to select shut down and walk away without concern.

    About Apple Hardware Test
    Apple Hardware Test diagnoses and detects problems with your computer's internal hardware components, such as the logic board, memory, and wireless components. It does not check external hardware components, such as USB or FireWire, or non-Apple devices, such as PCI cards from other vendors, nor does it check for operating system (Mac OS X) or software-related problems, such as application or extension conflicts.
    You may be able to start up your computer with Apple Hardware Test even if the machine will not start up under the Mac OS X.
    Using Apple Hardware Test
    Before using Apple Hardware Test, disconnect all external devices with the exception of keyboard, mouse, display, and speakers. You should also disconnect the Ethernet network cable. If you are using the MacBook Air, you may need to connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive. Print out these instructions before proceeding with the following steps.
    1. Restart your computer, holding down the “D” key while the computer restarts.
    2. When the Apple Hardware Test language chooser screen appears, select the language appropriate for your locale, and press the Return key or click on the right arrow button.
    3. If your computer is not supported by this version of Apple Hardware Test, an error dialog will be displayed. You should Shut Down the computer, locate the correct Mac OS X installation DVD containing Apple Hardware Test for this computer, and repeat the above steps.
    4. If your computer does not restart to Apple Hardware Test:
        a) Restart your computer with the Mac OS X installation DVD containing Apple Hardware Test. This should be the same DVD this document resides on. Hold down the “D” key while the computer restarts.
        b) If your Mac has a Firmware Password enabled you need to disable it first using the Firmware Password Utility when booted from the Mac OS X installation DVD.
    5. When the Apple Hardware Test main screen appears, follow the onscreen instructions.
    Advice about using Apple Hardware Test
    If Apple Hardware Test does not detect a hardware failure, the problem may be software related.
    If Apple Hardware Test detects a problem, it displays an error code. Make a note of the error code before pursuing support options.
    Alternatively if you are able to startup your computer from Mac OS X, you will be able to retrieve the error code, and optionally send this information to Apple, using the System Profiler utility application (which can be launched from the "About This Mac" dialog).
    If your computer has more than the minimum configuration of RAM, the Extended Test may take significantly more time than indicated on the screen. Your computer can use memory modules or DIMMs even when the Power On Self-Test, which runs when the machine is turned on, detects part of a module as being bad. When you start up your computer, Apple Hardware Test reports failed memory modules in the Hardware Tests panel.
    On computers with intelligent thermal management, it is normal for the fans to be running at high speed while using Apple Hardware Test.
    Advice about hardware compatibility
    When running Apple Hardware Test from the Mac OS X installation DVD, the DVD is not ejected on computers with a tray-loading optical drive when you click the Restart/Shut Down button. Either manually eject the DVD or use Mac OS X to eject the DVD.
    Advice about resolving problems with your computer
    • Turn the computer off and on properly.
    You can often eliminate problems by turning off your computer as recommended. To turn off your computer, choose Shut Down from the Apple () menu. Do not turn off the computer by turning off the switch on a power strip or by pulling the computer’s power plug. Restart your computer by pressing the power button. To restart your computer when it is on, choose Restart from the Apple () menu.
    • Check cables, peripherals, and controls.
    To see if cables or peripherals are causing conflicts with your system, shut down your computer. Disconnect the cables and peripherals, such as printers, scanners, cameras and external mass storage devices. Then reconnect the cables and peripherals and restart your system. You can also adjust the controls on your monitors and other peripherals.
    • Start up from the DVD containing the Mac OS X software.
    Start your system from the DVD containing the Mac OS X software by holding down the "C" key until you see the Apple logo. If the system works properly when started (booted) from the DVD containing the Mac OS X software, the problem may be related to the software installed on your computer.
    • Refer to Mac Help and the Internet for assistance.
    Mac Help, located in the Help menu, includes a wealth of technical information. The AppleCare Knowledge Base and other resources for technical help and support are available 24 hours a day at www.apple.com/support.
    • Reinstall the Mac OS X.
    In many cases, a clean installation of the Mac OS X fixes recurring problems. Make sure you back up the data on your hard drive before reinstalling Mac OS X. Follow the instructions in the Read This First or Read Before You Install documents to reinstall Mac OS X.
    • Contact AppleCare Service and Support for assistance.
    If the above steps don’t resolve the problem, please review the service and support material that came with your computer for information on contacting AppleCare.

    Recover software as you have described is pretty much your only option - keep in mind that if wait, some of the currently recoverable data may well be over-written and lost.

  • Is there a way to retrieve notes from notepad if the phone powered off lost charge) before I hit the done button?

    Is there a way to retrieve notes from notepad if the phone powered off lost charge) before I hit the done button?

    If the phone doesn't power on and isn't seen by the computer then you wouldn't be able to pull data off it with the USB connection to your computer.
    You could pursue data recovery if the notes are very valuable, but the cost can be similar to having data recovered from a failed computer drive(possibly prohibitively expensive).

  • Is there a way to retrieve earlier info from the exchange buffer?

    Hi,
    Yesterday, I edited a paragraph text in Word, copied it and put it in a box on a home page. Then I quit the computer (MacMook Air). This morning, I couldn't access the home page, so I thought I would look in the exchange buffer, but it was empty. As it should, I suppose.
    My question is this, is there a way to retrieve the paragraph that I copied yesterday?
    Thanks for any help!
    Best regards,

    Oh, BTW - I didn't make a Time Machine copy yesterday, so such solutions won't work. Maybe a lesson for me.

  • Lost all my passwords in mozilla, is there a way to retrieve them?

    While looking in my security window folder of passwords I somehow inadvertent did something to lose all my stored passwords -- is there a way to retrieve them

    First of all backup your profile, just in case the information really is in there and in case you make mistakes, at least then things should not get worse than they are already.
    Especially if this happened very recently then and it is worth trying using Windows OS and the option to retrieve previous files after right clicking them. The files are in the Firefox profile, and the easiest method of finding that is to navigate to the troubleshooting information page by keying in to the location bar ''about:support'' and using the open folder option on that page. Make sure you close firefox before messing with the profile and it is worth backing up files before and after you attempt to recover them.

    The files you need are the pair '''''key3.db ''''' & '''''signons.sqlite''''' copying the recovered files into the profile to overwrite the current file, or just recovering them in their correct location should restore the passwords.
    Note there are methods of backing up passwords, and the new sync will also backup passwords, but not at the moment if you use a master password.
