Leopard Terminal Features Gone

I used to be able to save my connection and window settings all together in Terminal in Tiger. I could simply double-click a saved terminal, and it would open the terminal app, make my SSH connection and display the background and other colors (which help remind me which remote machine I am on) that I had saved with that connection. Where have all these features gone? Can anyone tell me how to save a remote connection in the new Terminal?

Your Mail is not gone. The problem you are having following the upgrade to Leopard (10.5.6) from Tiger (10.4.11), is probably what has been covered by the support document at the link below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2537
If you also find any files named to include MessageSorting (which would mean you once have upgraded from a version of OSX earlier than 10.4), remove those, also, but never restore those.
To find the correct location for the Mail folder, open a Finder window, click on the icon of a house in the Sidebar (this is known often as "Home"), click on Library in that Home user directory, and then to open the Mail folder found there.

  • Keyboard selection in Leopard Terminal

    Does anyone know where the keyboard selection has gone in the Leopard Terminal? I.e., the command-option-enter command, then selecting some text using it two times more, which then could be pasted.
    I quite liked it, especially as I don't like mice/mouses/pointing devices. Is it still there under a different short cut, or just completely gone?

    I am also looking for this. For those of you unfamiliar, here is a summary of what Keyboard Selection can do http://www.macworld.com/article/59321/2007/08/termtext.html

  • Scandinavian characters in Leopard terminal

    I have a problem with Leopard terminal. It seems that no matter what I do, the terminal is not able to show scandinavian characters. I have tried to change all the related setting in Terminal preferences. I can now write special chars like ä, ö, å but when I try to list files with ls command all these characters are escaped and coded. This really bothers me because I need terminal very often and I need to see file lists with clear filenames. How can I change this?
    I'm using a Finnish keyboard and my OS X language is set to English. In terminal preferences I set the charset encoding to ISO Latin-1 to get the scandinavian characters working. For some strange reason they didn't work with UTF-8. I have also unselected the tab "Escape non-ASCII input". What else should I do to get everything working?

    when I try to list files with ls command all these characters are escaped and coded.
    Try ls -v

  • HT2513 how do you get the sidebar with three months of just calendar to turn on-is this feature gone?

    how do you get the sidebar with 3 months of calendars on the left?  Is this feature gone?

    Im sorry but I figured it out now. I hate when you figure something out right after you do something extreme like signup for a profile here and post a question. Well to those who want the answer all in one shot there are 2 solutions for me.
    1. Make sure Safari is updated completely. You can check by clicking SAFARI> ABOUT SAFARI
    Safari 5.0.5 gave me this problem but the new update is 5.1.2
    2.Glims - Free ad on for Safari which enables you to view you window in COMPLETE full screen at all times, as well as maximise your window to fill all empty space (makes so you dont have to worry about accidentally clicking on your desktop which I do all the time lol). You can use this option once Glims is installed simply by clicking on
    SAFARI> Full Screen
    or
    SAFARI> Maximise Window Size
    By doing Full Screen mode you can then click on the full screen capability on the website you are on

  • Leopard Terminal.app problem

    I have two issues.
    In Tiger Terminal, it is possible to select text and drag and drop on the current command line. Is this possible in Leopard Terminal.
    Also, I am in the habit of drag and dropping filenames from Finder into Terminal windows. When I do this in Terminal, it looses track of the cursor location. e.g. I create a new folder "untitled folder" and drag it to Terminal, do Ctrl-A to go the the start of the line and type cd, Terminal displays
    /Usecd rs/pheon/Desktop/untitled\ folder
    I hit return and I cd to untitled\ folder. No real problem apart from being ugly and difficult.
    Any solutions?

  • QT Pro features gone in QT snow leopard.???

    I saw snow leopard on a developers comp today and the QT pro features
    a.playing a section of a movie in a loop and the editing of tint, contrast, brightness ect is gone.
    What program can you use to replace these or is QT in Snow going to have these when released.
    I was told this was the final version he had.
    Thanks

    We are not allowed to talk about "pre release" versions of Mac software.

    Above it what Apple has announced regarding QuickTime and Snow Leopard.
    Looks like many of the "Pro" features will now be available in the "standard" version.

  • Leopard Terminal.app no longer supports ANSI print escape sequences?!!

    I print my email using pine's "attached-to-ansi" option, which used to work great in Tiger with Terminal.app. It no longer works in Leopard. It also breaks things like the "ansiprt" Unix command.
    This is a start/stop escape sequence that diverts text between the start/stop sequences to the printer. See http://www.termsys.demon.co.uk/vtansi.htm as a reference.
    Is there some Terminal.app setting I need to use to enable this? Some specific terminal type perhaps?
    Suggesting that I use enscript or other techniques don't work, as I use the Terminal to ssh into my mail server, then run pine on the mail server.
    Anyway, any idea how to get this very desirable feature back?
    Thanks,
    -John

    HI,
    I tried to set "Escape non-ASCII input" without any change. I didn't see an option to change "Escape non-ASCII output". I tried a few other things without success either using a different terminal type and so forth. I looked in the .term file and didn't see anything text related to ANSI or ASCII or escape.
    If I change a Terminal preference do I need to quit and restart Terminal to test the change, or does the change take place as soon as I change it in the menu? I tried quitting and restarting after checking "Escape non-ASCII input" and when I restart the box was unchecked. I couldn't find a "save preferences option either.
    In Tiger, my terminal type was xterm-color- same in Leopard. I had checked off "Escape non-ASCII characters" under Tiger.
    Here's exactly what I do, *which used to work in Leopard*.
    I run Terminal.app on my MacBook, and ssh to a mail server. On the mail server, I run the pine command to read my mail. Pine has an option to print email using ASCII escape sequences. Terminal.app sees these escape sequences and diverts the text to the default printer on my MacBook.
    Under Leopard, the Terminal doesn't catch the ANSI escape code, and just spews the text to the terminal window. Nothing has changed on the mail server side. I;m using the sane ssh command.
    Enscript won't work, as the printer connected to the mail server is often as not in a different state than my MacBook.
    Not all terminal emulators support the ANSI print escape sequences. Terminal didn't before Tiger, if I remember correctly. I used to use a very nice terminal emulator called Data Comet which did it.
    ANSI printing used to be a fairly common way to print to a local printer connected to via a parallel cable. Besides pine, the Unix command ansiprt http://kb.iu.edu/data/abye.html could be used to print remote files on the local printer. Some terminal emulator programs used the idea to hook the ANSI escape sequence to the printing system, extending the functionality to use any printer accessible by the local system.
    Thanks again for all your help. I hope I've clarified what I'm trying to do.

  • Snow Leapord - Where has the "Always on Top" feature gone?

    I like to have my ichat windows stay always on top, but after upgrading to the new snow leapord, I have no clue where this feature has gone. Any help?

    Did you have Chax installed in Leopard.

  • 'File type being selected by keystroke' feature gone?

    A minor thing, but still disappointing that it may be gone...
    In previous versions, when in the file requester, with the File Type field focused, I could type the first letter of the format I wanted (ex. J for Jpeg), and it would select it. That was a nice little feature that sped up the saving process (...didn't have to open up the File Type pulldown, and scroll through the selections until I found the one I wanted).
    Is that now gone in CS3 (extended), or is there some setting I can change to get that back?

    Ah, I figured it out... I have to click the Use OS Dialog button. For some reason, the Adobe dialog doesn't have that feature (...what's the difference between them anyway?!)

  • Leopard Terminal - No ANSI Colors at all?

    I've done a lot of searching on Terminal colors in Leopard (updated to latest.) I keep coming across fixes to change your colors, but my issue is that my Terminal doesn't display any ANSI colors at all. The terminal configuration works fine, but colors for everything (folders, executables, etc.) are always the same.
    I've tried changing a number of setting, installing the TerminalColors SIMBL plugin, and anything else I could think of, but my color scheme is always monotone.
    infocmp's first few lines:
    # Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /usr/share/terminfo/78/xterm-color
    xterm-color|nxterm|generic color xterm,
    am, km, mir, msgr, xenl,
    colors#8, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, ncv@, pairs#64,
    Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks!

    Figured it out.
    "ls -G" does it (duh)
    Don't remember doing this in Tiger, but perhaps I did.
    Added
    alias ls="ls -G"
    to ~/.profile
    to make this automatic.

  • Where has the 'bounce email' feature gone from Lion?

    Mail works OK after upgrade to LIon, I have set it up in classic mode for now.   However, I can't find the 'bounce email' feature.   This used to be a good way to reduce spam.
    Please Apple, let me have this feature back.

    i have just 'upgraded' to osx LION and CANNOT believe you have dropped the BOUNCE feature from mail.
    Why??????  PLEASE PUT IT BACK immediately - it is one of the main differences between apple mail and postbox.  You are losing customers doing this - I am going back to snow leopard till you fix it.   RIDICULOUS decision !!!!

  • Pro features gone

    I've had QT Pro for years; all of a sudden, the Pro features have disappeared, but in a weird way: the features are gone in QT, but 'Buy Quicktime Pro' is grayed out, and under Registration, it indicates I still have Pro. I'm running QT 7.6. ?? I've replaced what are think are all the User/Library/Preferences/Quicktime files from a backup, to no avail. I'm stumped.. I was working with a problematic file earlier in the day, which must have corrupted something. Suggestions?

    If you were working with a mpeg-1 or 2 video the Pro features will be grayed out. Quicktime Pro can't edit or re-compress mpeg1 or 2 videos. Try another video video and see if your Pro features are there.
    Mpeg-Streamclip can edit or re-compress mpeg 1 or 2 video...and it's free!!!

  • Terminal.app gone or deleted

    Hello guys,
    I lost (or deleted) my terminal.app.
    does any1 knows were i can download it?

    You cannot download it, but you can reinstall it from your Leopard DVD:
    How to Use Pacifist to Replace Deleted or Missing OS X Components
    Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
    Press RETURN.
    To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
    The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
    Download the shareware utility Pacifist from VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
    Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
    A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
    B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
    C. Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder.
    In the path field enter or paste ....
    /Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.
    • Click on the "Go" button .....
    • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
    The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
    D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
    1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
    2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
    2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
    3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
    4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
    5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
    20 files were scanned.
    20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk.
    0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package.
    0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
    6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
    Extract or Install........
    7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
    8. If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
    9. In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
    10. If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
    11. Type in your password, click “OK”
    • Pacifist will begin to extract files.
    12. In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
    Notes.....
    • Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
    Stop
    Leave original alone
    Update ..... Default selection
    Replace .... Replace option should only be used on full install packages

  • Problem with gcc in Leopard terminal

    Hi,
    I am hoping to study computer science in college and eventually become a mac developer. I just recently bought an objective C programming book that is geared toward beginners. After reading it some, I tried to make a very simple program. I used text edit and saved it as a .m file. When I tried to compile it in terminal using gcc, (I have installed the dev tools) it spat back this error message.
