Is there anything in these ETRECHEK results I should attend to urgently?

Hi
Ran etrecheck today in case my SMC reset didn't resolve a wifi connectivity issue (after upgrade to OS 10.10.1) but it seems to have succeeded and am now wondering if these results tell any of you clever people if there is anything I should do something about?  Performance speed wise has been a bit iffy lately but today after SMC it has perhaps improved.. sorry to be vague.  Thanks
Problem description:
Wi-fi connection very fragile after upgrade to OS 10.10.1
Sleep+restart+shutdown sequence didn’t help so did an SMC
So far so good but thought I would get a step ahead and run this
EtreCheck version: 2.0.11 (98)

    Call it and ask whoever answers to give it back to you.

  • Lost my phone is there anything apple can do?

    Depends where you are
    if in the UK , tell your carrier so they can block the sim to protect your usage
    Nothing Apple can do .

  • Is there anything suspicious in these Terminal results?

    I'm a fairly new iMac user and I have recently been bombarded with spam on my Verizon email account, which I view through my iMac's Mail program. (Except that now that I'm getting so much spam, I've been signing into my Verizon email instead of my Apple Mail account so that I can send all the spam to Verizon's SpamDetector without opening the spam ... another problem in itself since it seems that my Apple Mail program always opens the spam no matter how discreet I try to be while forwarding it to my Junk folder.. and on top of that, Verizon's Spam Detector doesn't seem to be doing a thing for me!) Sometimes it seems that the spam arrives in droves after using particular forum-oriented websites like Trip Advisor and others, but this could just be a coincidence.
    I also recently upgraded my WEP on my Verizon Actiontec MI424WR router to WPA2 in accordance with Verizon's July instructions. Since then, I am also having all sorts of inconsistent connectivity issues with my iMac, my HP 8600 printer, and my iPhone 5s.
    Occasionally, it seems that I am being redirected to sites that I didn't ask to see -- nothing really trashy or anything, but for instance, when I was trying to research my problems via Apple Support, I am nearly positive I was being directed to fake Apple Support sites. The main reason I think this is because some of the pages were advertising or directing me to download things that I have been told are not safe -- like fake malware removal programs. I didn't click on any of the links on these pages. Instead, I re-inserted apple.com into my browser and came up with a more official-looking apple.com home page.
    Other than my first massive spam issues ever (in over 20 years with the same email address), and the connectivity issues that I've been having since upgrading to WPA2, and what occasionally appears to be redirected websites, I have no other reason to research malware issues. But I'm suddenly  having so many little irritating issues with my iMac that I began to suspect that I MIGHT have a problem.
    After reading several forums and solutions on the Apple Support site, it occurs to me that I MAY have updated Adobe Flashplayer from a third-party website. I do recall being surprised at the frequency with which I was directed to upgrade Adobe Flashplayer, but I did it anyway because it seemed official and because I didn't know that there was a known security issue with Adobe Flashplayer.  And maybe the updates WERE official! I just don't feel like I know anything at this point.
    Anyway, I saw a response by Linc Davis that directed a community member to take several copy and paste steps with Terminal. I have followed Linc Davis' instructions and got these results:

  • Is there anything I can possibly do about these logic boards?

    Ok, I have 4 broken 4th Generation iPods. Two of them are white 20GB models, one is a white 40GB model, and one is a U2 Special Edition 20GB model. All of them have broken logic boards. Every month or so I give them another go to see if I can get any of them working. But, like usual, I tried today and had no luck.
    EDIT: Let me specify, these are all monochrome 4th generation models.
    The difference here (as opposed to previous attempts) is that now I have a working monochrome 4G (meaning a perfect functioning logic board) that I purchased since my last attempt at fixing these (meaning I now have 1 working iPod but still the 4 broken ones). I was able to restore one of my spare hard drives (20GB MK2006GAL model) with firmware version 3.1.1 using this working iPod. I was even able to add songs, and after disconnecting, play them in the working iPod. Not to mention, the hard drive sounds like it is running beautifully.
    So, I thought, "maybe if I plug a 4th gen formatted, working hard drive with the latest 4th gen firmware into one of these corrupted iPods, they'll at least play the music, even if they won't connect to the PC". Wrong. I still get the old routine of Apple logo, folder icon, "Do not disconnect" for about 5 seconds until it resets itself to the Apple logo, a sad face, and finally a low battery sign (regardless of how charged the battery is) in that exact order. This occurs with 3 of the logic boards. The other logic board, which was originally in the U2 iPod, is able to boot up, and choose a language, but the logic board is broken in that the battery is undetected (no charging, and as soon as you unplug it, poof, its gone). I've tried several batteries that I know work; I am 100% positive it is a logic board issue.
    I've tried diagnostic mode on each and every iPod. On the working 4th gen (with functioning logic board), they pass HDD R/W and HDD SCAN. But they never complete on any other iPod; even after an hour, they've done nothing, and act like they have frozen. I've run the 5-in-1 test on each of these, and they all complete fine.
    So... I guess it all comes down to corrupted logic boards prevent the iPod from properly booting, connecting, and completing diagnostic tests. Is there ANYTHING I can do to rewrite or fix these files? Would connecting to a Mac help at all? (I ask because there is no Mac available to me, not even at a local computer store, but if you guys think it would help, I would go out of my way to the Apple store about 1 hour away). I know Mac's use different formats for the hardware, but I thought this was all hard drive related. Thanks for any help/recommendations/etc.
    Oh, one last note, about that logic board that is able to boot but can't detect the battery: It actually can tell if theres a battery there, but it just doesn't... work. Like, if I have a completely dead battery installed, and I try to plug it in, I get the battery with exclamation point icon. If I plug it in with a battery 50% charged, it will boot and the battery icon will show that is it 50% charged, but it won't charge it, and it still turns off it its disconnected. Any help with this would be great as well.

    I tried running the HP tool today, to see if that would help, but it to was unable to detect my iPod.
    I should also point out that Windows can not detect my iPod either (and thus it has no drive assigned to it).

  • After upgrading to 7.0.4 yesterday on my iPhone 4, there are still 7 apps that are waiting to download, including Facebook. Is there anything I can do? These are apps I use frequently. Thanks.

    After upgrading to 7.0.4 yesterday on my iPhone 4, there are still 7 apps that are waiting to download, including Facebook. The phone was plugged in for 12 hours and it has had a Wi-Fi connection for most of the 24 hours. Is there anything I can do? These are apps I use frequently. Thanks.

    this is not phone or OS problem . its only your router DNS transfer function problem
    I have resolved the problem by myself. I just figured out that the problem due to the DNS transfer function in my router. If I set the iPhone 4S to use the DNS server as 192.168.1.1 which is also the ip address of my router it will have the problem until I set the DNS to some common DNS service, such as 8.8.8.8 from Google. I think it is the problem of compatibiliy between the iOS and the router.
      GOTO SETTINGS>>WI-FI>>click on informatio button(i) of your network>> change DNS to 8.8.8.8>> return
    all the best........

    Kappy's Personal Suggestions About OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utility is: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior for defragmentation of older drives, disk repair, disk scans, formatting, partitioning, disk copy, and benchmarking. 
    Four outstanding sources of information on Mac maintenance are:
    1. OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney.
    2. Mac maintenance Quick Assist
    3. Maintaining Mac OS X
    4. Mac Maintenance Guide
    Periodic Maintenance
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) See Mac OS X- About background maintenance tasks. If you are running Leopard or later these tasks are run automatically, so there is no need to use any third-party software to force running these tasks.
    If you are using a pre-Leopard version of OS X, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced after Tiger.  (These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion and should not be installed.)
    Defragmentation
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive except when trying to install Boot Camp on a fragmented drive. But you don't need to buy third-party software. All you need is a spare external hard drive and Carbon Copy Cloner.
    Cheap and Easy Defragmentation
    You will have to backup your OS X partition to an external drive, boot from the external drive, use Disk Utility to repartition and reformat your hard drive back to a single volume, then restore your backup to the internal hard drive. You will use Carbon Copy Cloner to create the backup and to restore it.
      1. Get an empty external hard drive and clone your internal drive to the
           external one.
      2. Boot from the external hard drive.
      3. Erase the internal hard drive.
      4. Restore the external clone to the internal hard drive.
    Clone the internal drive to the external drive
      1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
      2. Select the Source volume from the left side dropdown menu.
      3. Select the Destination volume from the left side dropdown menu.
      4. Be sure the Block Copy button is not depressed or is ghosted.
      5. Click on the Clone button.
    Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager appears.  Select the icon for the external drive and click on the upward pointing arrow button.
    After startup do the following:
    Erase internal hard drive
      1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
      2. After DU loads select your internal hard drive (this is the entry with the
           mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the
           drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is
           failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be
           reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the
           DU main window.
      3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the
           drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended
           (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to
           GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait
           until the process has completed.
    Restore the clone to the internal hard drive
      1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
      2. Select the Source volume from the left side dropdown menu.
      3. Select the Destination volume from the left side dropdown menu.
      4. Be sure the Block Copy button is not selected or is ghosted.
      5. Click on the Clone button.
    Destination means the internal hard drive. Source means the external startup drive.
    Note that the Source and Destination drives are swapped for this last procedure.
    Malware Protection
    As for malware protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. Starting with Lion Apple has included built-in malware protection that is automatically updated as necessary.
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection:
    1. Mac Malware Guide.
    2. Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware
    3. Macintosh Virus Guide
    For general anti-virus protection I recommend only using ClamXav, but it is not necessary if you are keeping your computer's operating system software up to date. You should avoid any other third-party software advertised as providing anti-malware/virus protection. They are not required and could cause the performance of your computer to drop.
    Cache Clearing
    I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, Mountain Lion Cache Cleaner 7.0.9, Maintenance 1.6.8, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache files can cause slowness, kernel panics, and other issues. Although this is not a frequent nor a recurring problem, when it does happen there are tools such as those above to fix the problem.
    If you are using Snow Leopard or earlier, then for emergency cleaning install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. (AppleJack works with Snow Leopard or earlier.)
    Installing System Updates or Upgrades
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
    Backup and Restore
    Having a backup and restore strategy is one of the most important things you can do to maintain your computer. Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner.
      2. Deja Vu
      3. SuperDuper!
      4. Synk Pro
      5. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance and backup and restore.
    Always have a current backup before performing any system updates or upgrades.
    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity or 20 GBs, whichever is greater, as free space. Avoid installing utilities that rely on Haxies, SIMBL, or that alter the OS appearance, add features you will rarely if ever need, etc. The more extras you install the greater the probability of having problems. If you install software be sure you know how to uninstall it. Avoid installing multiple new software at the same time. Install one at a time and use it for a while to be sure it's compatible.

  • Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • HT201263 My iPhone 4 started to update but got stuck in recovery mode. I've tried everything anyone on the website has told me to do, but nothing has worked. Is there anything I can do? I need my phone

    My iPhone 4 started to update but got stuck in recovery mode. I've tried everything anyone on the website has told me to do, but nothing has worked. When you go to turn it on, it shows the Apple symbol,  then it goes to the connect to iTunes screen. When I do that, it just says error with the code 9006. I've followed what the Apple site has said to do for it, but the phone is still is the same  state. Is there anything I can do? I need my phone back as soon as possible.

    Hello Hester Emily,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing after this update process.  I found the following article that has more information on the iTunes error code 9006:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Configure your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, or 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • Apple took money out of my account. I had to change debit cards, and they won't get another one so is there anything I can do about this problem. I rather cancel the phone before I have to worry with my bank accoung.

    OK, so I have now found that this is apparently normal for iTunes, to only accept mpeg 4 movie files, all the searching I did before I must have worded it wrong because I couldn't find anything about this, incredibly. Had been looking for why iTunes won't take all the files it previously did, like if it had been changed, and it hasn't, it's allegedly always taken only mpeg 4 files. Also I had been searching for why iTunes crashes every time I try and add/import anything but mpeg 4 files, and even sometimes with mpeg 4 files. That isn't normal, it's supposed to just do nothing apparently as I've just found out. So for these reasons I didn't find the answer despite my searching all over the web.
    So I guess that answers my own question now, but I'm still perplexed as to why I absolutely, definitely, without any doubt, had several hundred movies of a few different video file types loaded, accessible and playable in my iTunes library that everything here claims iTunes never accepted. It apparently shouldn't have been possible for me to have done this, but for probably 10 years it's been this way.
    Perhaps since I don't remember adding these files to iTunes anymore recently than maybe 6 or 7 years ago, the iTunes back then did accept all kinds of file types? Or could I have somehow had some video codecs or software that expanded the capability of my movie players like Quicktime Player that unwittingly also allowed iTunes to take those files as well? All I know is somehow it worked! So now my question is how did I have it working before, so that maybe I can make it work again.

  • Hi I seemed to have picked something on my MacBook Pro that hits me with a survey that involves winning a new iPhone 5 or iPad.  Is there anything you can advise to get rid of whatever it is?

    Hi Anybody
    I seemed to have picked something on my MacBook Pro that hits me with a survey that involves winning a new iPhone 5 or iPad.  Is there anything you can advise to get rid of whatever it is?  Bear in mind I am a greenhorn with regard to computers!
    Computer: 2.8 GHz intel core 2 Duo MacBook Pro computer with  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
    I did download clamXav software as someone on line recommended it which duly scanned my computer and located some infected files.  However, I don't know how to select these files to delete them.   Does anyone know an idiot's guide for this software?
    Regards Art4

  • Is there anything available that covers the pros/cons of a simple and network PCD migration?

    Is there anything available that covers the pros/cons of a simple and network PCD migration?  

    Hi,
    as such there is no DOC but I can share my views:
    Under Pros:
    a. PCD is an application use to migrate older versions[6.1.5, 7.x , 8.x] running on MCS to VM servers.
    b.It can be used to change the IP address or hostname on new servers without affecting existing version .
    c. Many users using MCS Hardware are not willing to migrate to latest version because of existing HW not supporting interim releases which they have to hop through to get on to the target release.
    d. Further, this requires license re-hosting as well for interim releases and major downtimes as well which can be avoided by using PCD without disturbing existing setup.
    e. Also, DRAM/HDD sizing needs to be considered while doing migration on MCS.PCD addresses these issues for migration.
    Under CONS:
    a. It needs to be ordered through Product Upgrade Tool and bootable is not downloadable from Cisco site.
    b. You could face some issues while doing migration which could be bugs but can be resolved.
    c.could face issues while discovering  cluster/doing migration but can be resolved.
    regds,
    aman

  • Is there anything backing up my system other than Time Machine?

    I have a Mac Pro & recently had to reinstall the OS. I didn't setup Time Machine because I didn't have another external drive to back things up to. I made some changes to my system that resulted in it not being able to boot up. Is there anything in SL that will allow me to restore my system to earlier today?

    I did a bunch dumb stuff. Stuff that I won't be doing again. I was able to get back to where I started. I basically did what was stated above. I just installed SL over the top of stuff & miracualously, my apps were saved. MAN, you gotta love this OS.
    I really apprecaite everyone's help with this. I always get help on this forum & usually nobody tells me how dumb I am. Thank you for not pointing that out. I know that was dumb. I didn't need to be reminded. You guys are great!
    This time. I'll implement Time Machine & this won't be an issue.
