Is there something that alerts when a command wants input or finishes?
Many command line operations require waiting before requiring input (eg compiling and using package managers). Many of these offer options for ignoring all questions but sometimes you don't want to do this (or miss an argument) but don't want to check the terminal all the time.
Is there a application that I can run in combination with these that will somehow alert me (sound?) that the application is finished/error or waiting for input?
A finished / error state notification is easy, the program in question has finished, so you can run another program e.g. play a sound file so you know e.g. the compilation has finished.
If it just waits for input or hangs, that's another thing.

Is there something that needs to be done in response to deadlock victims?
So, Friday I got a report by one user about an unusual error seen. It appeared to be a one time error that went away when the page refreshed.
I went to the logs, tried to find an associated message to see if there were actions to take.
(Boy, I wish there were a series of books for SP admins that covered all the event and ULS log entries and what action to take to resolve them)
When I got onto one of the farm servers to look at logs, the event log had a number of unusual warnings and errors.
I am taking a look at some of these to see if there is something that needs to be done.
One of the errors - which has occurred 3 times in December - is related to the search software. One says "Foundation Search" and the other two say "Server Search".
So, are these the kinds of things that an admin should just ignore at this noise level (3 in 2 weeks) or is there something that should be done?
The warning is 57 and says that a database error occurred - a transaction was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and was chosen as the deadlock victim.
The first 2 times the application was Search_Service_Application, while the most recent occurrence was
'Search_index_file_on_the_search_server'.Hi Iwvirden,
Deadlocks on SharePoint databases may cause performance issues in SharePoint.
So if the error occurs on SharePoint content databases and occurs many times, then you need to troubleshoot this issue in SQL:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/christwe/archive/2014/02/06/what-can-i-do-about-the-deadlocks.aspx
If the deadlocks occur on Search databases, then you can ignore them if there are not too many errors.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sharepoint_strategery/archive/2014/02/10/sharepoint-search-and-deadlocks-in-sql-server.aspx
By the way, the errors about search displayed in the ULS log should be checked as these errors may influence your search function.
Best regards.
Thanks

HI! I have a new macbook air but having difficulty connecting to a router if I am about 10 meters away. My iMac, iPad, iPhones and iPods can connect easily. Is there something that I need to configure? I have no issues if I am close to it. Thank you!
Hello, If you are dealing with one of the really thin iMac's that have no superdrive, then the superdrive icon should not appear on the desktop when you plug it in, but when you put in a disk (CD, DVD, etc.) that should appear. If you go into disk utility, and look at superdrive, that should be clickable and not grayed out when you have it plugged in. If this does not show up in disk utility, go to Apple, and ask to speak to their supervisor, speaking to a customer service agent is like talking to a potato, nothing gets done. Good Luck!

Is there something that auto reinstalls old packages from cache?
You pacman -Syu and something broke - you dont have time to figure out what. All you know is that 20 minutes ago your configuration worked and that you have not pacman -Sc yet. You can figure out later what went wrong, right now you just want a worked system.
Is there something that already that scans the cache and at least lists the packages that are in the cache that are not installed? So that you can quickly just pacman -S $(them) ???one-liners ftw!
pacman -Q | while read name vers; do LC_ALL=C; find /var/cache/pacman/pkg -name $name* | grep -v $vers | sort -r | head -n1; done
lists highest version of all installed packages found in your cache not including the installed version. good luck managing that output
/edit: the better approach would be to tail /var/log/pacman.log and reverse whatever the -Syu just did using the pacman -U command mentioned before.
/edit2: at eldragon below: useless use of cat is useless

When I rent a movie using Apple TV,it takes several hours to load. At this point, I opt to watch later. When I try to watch the movie, it starts loading again and tells me that it will be ready to watch in one hour forty four minutes. This can't be normal. Is there something I am doing wrong? Any suggestions.
If it's taking several hours then that is likely due to your internet connection. You can verify at speedtest.net
6mbps required for instant 720P
8mbps for 1080P
You can switch to SD in the settings (which only requires 3mbps)
You can also check istumbler or netstumbler for interference
Make sure you are on your ISPs DNS
The reloading is normal. There is no accessible storage on ATV. The small flash is used for caching streamed content, if you access other things or turn the device off it will be flushed. -
My problem is that when using face time either I can hear the person and they cannot hear me or they can hear me and I cannot hear them. Is there something I need to do in the controls to take care of this issue? Thank you for your response.
Diannie-
Since you sometimes can hear, and sometimes can be heard, your iPad is probably working OK.
But what about the other parties? Is it always the same prson who can not hear you? Is it always the same (but different) person you can not hear? In other words, the problems could be at the other end.
You and your friends might try the Skype App. Once registered, you can access Skype's test server to check your audio. It lets you speak for several seconds, and then plays it back.

Is there something that i can download to get my videos to come up?
My camcorder is not working and i was wondering if there was something that i can download to get them into imovie. I have a macbook and a DCR-DVD 180 Camcorder.

My personal choice would be to use MPEG Streamclip (free) with the QT MPEG-2 Playback component ($20) installed to manually convert your files. This does, however, assumed that you cane either download/copy your DVD content directly from the camcorder to your hard drive or can do so from the DVD when inserted into your computer. This, therefore, assumes that you have finalized the DVD (if required) and it is either inserted into the computer or the camcorder is properly connected, powered, and recognized as an external device. In most cases, users forget to "finalize" their DVD and most devices (other than the camcorder itself) will not recognize the content until the disc is properly closed. -
Trying to find app that alerts when apps on sale???
Hi, this is a silly question but I was browsing the app store awhile back and came across an app that alerted you when apps you were interested in went on sale. I moved on and don't remember the name of it. Now that I want to maybe purchase it, I don't know what it was called and can't find it when I search. Anyone have any ideas what does this? Thanks.

FF Browser 5 loads itself very slowly and takes so long with no sign that it is loading that many times I will click it again and later find that it has loaded itself twice.
Is there anything that I can do to speed the start-up of this browser?
It seems that if there is not a way to load this browser faster that FireFox would make an add on that would show us that the Browser is in process of loading at the very least. Thank you for your kindness in any way for help in this regard. Best Regards

Or were you referring to the one in the old temporary replacement device? Would that even be compatible with the newer phones?
The one that wasn't working had a 4G LTE SIM card in it. It should have usable in the replacement Razr. It was only until I read the OP a third time this morning that there might be a third device involved. It would be nice if people would give more specifics on what devices are active at what time.

Here is the what the message window says when I click on the iCloud symbol with an exclamation point:
"This item was not added to iCloud because an error occurred."
It happens erratically. I thought it was my computer at home (a PC), so I tried importing the music on my work computer (an iMac).
It happens on both, and the same songs. Sometimes it's up to half of the songs on a CD.
I can't figure out why it's doing this.Sounds like your library database may be being corrupted. With iTunes 11 an "empty" library will show the previous purchases of the account that is currently signed in. To prevent this go to iTunes Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Have you actually checked the hard drive to see if the media is still present? Chances are you need to restore an older library file in the way set out below...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
The images are from Windows XP, but the principle is the same. Depending on the age of you library the library file may not include the .itl extension.

Video's are missing from facebook album under photo's. It shows that I have 99 and only shows 24. These are not copyright problems. I have had them up for years. Now, I can not post any video's too. Message says that content is currently unavailable. It seemed to happen after I upgraded to 10.7.5 but it could be coincidental. Of course, I have not got any email from facebook to help with this problem and I am really frustrated that I can not find my video's and post any new ones anymore. Any help would be appreciated.
I would like to add that Comcast is my internet provider. Perhaps that is part of the issue although the Connection Doctor confirms the mail box is connecting to the internet. No other function processes when Connection Doctor program is used to find the source of the issue. I have read forum posts but am unable to find a way to get my Apple mail to be delivered to my computer. It worked fine up until I chose to transfer mail to the Cloud. My mail account is a .mac account.
Still hoping someone out there can help me.
thanks,

Is there something that is equivelant to a "right-click"?
Is there a button or some kind of action I can do to perform an action that is compared to a "right-click" on windows?
PatrickHi Core Solo,
This has to be turned on in the Preferences and is not the default. It wasn't for me anyway.
If you are trying this and it does not work go to:
System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Trackpad > Check "Place two fingers on trackpad and click for secondary click"
