Little bit of a development question....

Hi All,
We are a Lync certified SIP trunk provider, and we are looking at the possibility of alerting Lync users when they do not have valid E911 information entered. (I know Lync does this, but it's pritty simple to get around (the user can just close it and operate
without location specified).
My question is, how plausible would it be, to write a script which pulled users location information as they sign in to lync, and display a more vivid , direct notice to the users, possibly even prevent them from using Lync until this is entered...?
The script could run when they sign in, or statically on a server and poll every couple of minutes.
Any ideas and feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

Bit of a strange question regarding security and internet connection

This is a bit of an odd question so bear with me for a moment.
I sold my old G4 to someone I didn't know yesterday. While he was looking at it to make sure it was working I allowed him to plug my ethernet cable in (connected to both a netgear router and a cable modem) and go online to install an application on the computer he was buying. It did't take long and I didn't actually see what he installed but after he left and I plugged back in to my mac pro, my internet connection started suffering. It started by being very slow and then timing out with servers. I reset the modem and even bypassed the router but the connection did not improve and eventually I could only get a self assigned IP address with no internet, although the modem appeared to be fine.
Aside from finding my I.P. address at my location, is there anything else he could have compomised security wise, either in the name of harvesting some kind of info or just creating a problem in the cable network when I let him use my connection on the g4?
I think that most likely I'm being a little paranoid but the timing of this is a bit strange. It literally went down hill just after he left.
Today the cable company is reporting a wider internet outage than just me but I just though I'd throw it out there to see if there are any security wholes exploitable when someone uses your internet connection (I would think and hope that there are not).
thanks a bunch

Well, in the closing the stable door approach it is a good idea to do a complete erase and install when selling any computer. There's lots of references to this and even one about removing a certain file so when they start up they get the brand new Mac greeting window. If you do not erase the drive using the secure erase feature in Disk Utility then with an $80 investment plus an empty spare drive the purchaser can likely recover any files you had on the computer recently if they consider it worth the effort.
I suspect the internet issue is not related to this, especially since your ISP commented about problems.

Filcking right a little bit on trackpad makes webpages stop working.

Sorry if my English is broken...
I'm using Safari 7.0.3 on Mac OS X 10.9.2 installed MacBook Pro.
The trouble is just as menthoned in the title.
If you have Majic Trackpad or built-in trackpad, try these steps... These steps make the problem happen.
Open Safari.
Visit some webpage.
Then visit another webpage.
Finally, using trackpad, flick rightwards a little(as you do when you go back to the previous page, but do it just a little bit & release your finger quickly).
And when those steps 'work', following horrible glitches will happen:
The webpage you're visiting is shifted slightly to the right and the webpage you were visiting before can be seen a little. (This is the sign of 'success!')
The webpage stops working. You will never be able to write into a textbox on that page and so on.
You can't visit websites in that tab anymore. You can see webpages being loaded, but nothing happen in your tab.
Trackpad scrolling in other tabs is blocked until you close the tab in question.
I'm surprised because I've never had such a problem before...
So, the question is: What is this caused by? And how can I prevent it? (Well, trying not to flick a little IS one solution, but not this time XD)

There are reports that this problem can be solved by simply restarting, or by resetting the PRAM.

I've recently spilt a little bit of water on my Macbook Pro 13" and some of it went into the keyboard, the first thing I did was get paper towels and dry it off, everything is except now the speakers sound different, and a little bit lower in volume

I've recently spilt a little bit of water on my Macbook Pro 13" and some of it went into the keyboard, the first thing I did was get paper towels and dry it off, everything is except now the speakers sound different, and a little bit lower in volume, basically the speakers just sound weird, there's no word to describe it, I can't really hear any bass from my speakers

Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.

Need a little bit of guidance

I need a little bit of guidance.
My plan is to make a PKGBUILD, but I've ran into a few snags. I'm trying to make PKGBUILD for ToME-223-src (Troubles of Middle Earth). But first I want to compile and install it locally so I'll have a good idea of how to make the PKBUILD right and to test it for awhile. So the PKGBUILD is something later on to worry about.
I have a bit of delimma. For some reason, the developer(s) of this game have the binary for it to use suid (I'm not sure their reasoning since I'm not a very experience programmer). Fortunately, in the makefile, it uses the variable OWNER=games by default. This is what is responsible for setting the ownership of all of the files when "make install" is ran appearantly. This presents a few challenges.
When you get to the point of where you make install it, it's install rule wants to recursively run chown on all the files being installed like a nice and tidy makefile does. So if you're not logged in as root when you do the "make install" it gets choked up a bit and doesn't copy/install all the files. So a regular user account doesn't generally have needed privileges to run chown and it has to be assumed when someone is going to install my tentative package they won't either.
Another delimma is that since it wants to utilize suid, this creates the necessity of a regular user account to be the owner of these files (I don't like the idea of this game running with root privileges personally). We don't want root ownership on whatever files have their suid bit set I would think. So this will require the making of the appropriate user. Again, this usually requires high enough privileges by the person building.
This of course could be solved by using useradd in the build function, and the having builder being logged on as root when they makepgk, but I really don't like that nor feel it's a very kosher approach.
Any idea of how I can come up with an elegant solution to this? How is this sort of situation normally handled with ABS?

If a package needs chown on install, or a new user created, this is typically done in the .install script. When pacman installs the pakcage, the .install script is run as root.
Based purely on your description, my suggestion would be to skip the make install stage, and use install commands in the PKGBUILD to put the files in the right places. In the .install script, create the required user and associated permissions.
Here's a typical example.

Hello All...
Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
Thanks!

Thank you for the replies. Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems. I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work. I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic. When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones. This actually helped. I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems. I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac. I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed. Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else.
If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio.

I had a little bit of money on my iPad and i bought a app. That was 20 dollars now it won't let me download free apps or upgrade. Do I owe them the rest of the money? HELP ME!

I had a little bit of money on my iPad and I brought a app. That was 20 dollars now it saying there is a billing problem. I think I owe them money but I don't know and it won't let me get free apps or upgrade apps. What should I do?

I keep getting the little blue box with the question mark

Hi
I have 10.6.7 system software and my safari is 5.0.4
I have called apple twice with this problem already but nothing has helped except for short times.
I have reset safari about one dozen times and when I do I reset the top 7 items and I've emptied the cache in addition just in case. I've also taken my safari preference plist out of my library and trashed it.
And I've run disk utilities many times and restarted my computer. Each thing I do will solve the problem for a short time, even up to a day or more (or less) but then it comes back. For instance on Facebook maybe 1/8th of the thumbnail images have the little blue boxes with the question marks but most don't. I can't figure it out. Sometimes even the iPAD safari gets them too but my firefox doesn't show them and neither does Safari on my eMac.
Yesterday the question marks even showed up in ONE mailing on all 3 computers with the question marks in the blue boxes (meaning my iMac, my eMac and my iPad) but then it just all resolved after a few hours. This does sound like possibly a server problem except today it's happening (in Safari again) only on this iMac in Safari (not firefox) and not on the other two devices.
One more thing, since they changed my radio on the roof for my wireless internet, the 5.8 phone cuts out the internet when I use it. The problem has gotten worse since they changed the radio to the same frequency as the phone, it's a much faster service than the 2.4 radio. I don't know if this is related or not.
Thank you,
Martha

<Contact your ISP.
Is it possible, Carolyn, that this would mainly and almost always be only affecting the iMac and Safari in the iMac if it were a server issue? Right now Safari has more blue boxes with question marks than ever and the eMac and iPad have none. Firefox on the iMac has none also.
I should try a direct connection and by pass the router and see if that makes a difference.
I will contact them tomorrow but I want to get clear in my head first all the facts and possibilities.
Thanks!
Martha

Whenever I go to a site or click anything, I always have to move my mouse for the page to load, why is this happening? (When I go to a site full of images, I move my mouse a little bit at a time and it loads one image at a time)

Hi, Tom.
FYI: You've not stated which of your listed Macs is having the problem. However, the following may help in any case:
1. Did you install Front Row using the Front Row hack on a Mac that did not ship from the factory with Front Row installed? If so, See my "Uninstalling the Front Row hack" FAQ. This has been known to cause a variety of problems, including the menu bar (Clock, Spotlight) issues you noted.
2. If you did not install the Front Row Hack, an incompatible or corrupted Startup or Login Item may be partly to blame for the problems with the menu bar. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
3. As a general check, run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
4. Re: Safari and Mail, if not sorted by any of the above, see also:• "Safari: Blank icon after installing Security Update 2006-002 v1.0."
• My my "Multiple applications quit unexpectedly or fail to launch" FAQ
Good luck!

All I hear when I make calls is little bits of static (most of the time)

So this started happening about a month ago when I moved to NJ (though I upgraded from iOS 5.1.1 to 7 at the same time - so I don't know if that's connected to this issue). I place a call and the timer starts going, but I can't hear anything except a little bit of intermittent static every now and then. Maybe the static is when the person says hello - I don't know. It's indiscernible as speech and is very soft.
Placing calls works sometimes, but I just tried about 4 or 5 times this morning to place calls to 2 different numbers (including Sprint's '*2' service number) and I let each call go for at least 20 seconds before giving up. I never even hear the ring. I've gotten so used to it not working, I stopped waiting for a minute before giving up. Sometimes calling out works... and I suspect that there may be a pattern to it. My current theory is that placing calls starts to work each morning AFTER I've received a call. Receiving calls has always worked - never couldn't hear anyone when they've called me.
I have tried turning the phone off and back on - no luck. I reprogrammed the phone via the help of a Sprint representative - no luck. After reprogramming the phone, they had me call an 888 number, and that worked - I could hear it ring, but when I tried calling the guy I'd been trying to reach this morning on his land line - no luck. It then worked when I tried calling my parents' landline (which is the number I'm calling when I usually experience this problem). Then I received a call back from my parents about my hang-up, and then I tried the same guy again, and this time it worked.
What the heck is going on? Is it my phone? Is it the towers? Is it Sprint? What's causing all these calls where I can't hear anything? I have not asked if the people I've called could hear me when the problem is occurring.
Thanks,
Rob

I fixed it.
Thanks

Images appearing as little blue box with a question mark

Hi, I have Safari version 3.1.1 and in the last two weeks, I've been missing data and having in it's place a small little blue box with a question mark show up in Safari and in some of my mail downloads too.
Can anyone assist
Thanks
Tony
p.s. I have started a new topic because the other string relating to this topic is showing as solved with cause being devleopers.

I have exactly the same problem with safari and mail but firefox works fine. If i go to a website that requires flash in safari it will say i need to install flash 8 to view the stuff even though i have flash 9 installed. I thought it might have been a problem with flash and thought about uninstalling and reinstalling but because firefox works fine it would seem to be a safari problem. This only started happening with the latest quicktime update to, and i've tried downgrading back to an older version but my pro-apps require the latest version to run.
I did the same updates on my macbook but didn't encounter the same problems,although i lost audio playback on avi's in quicktime which i have since fixed with perian.
