[New_Feature_Requirement] [iOS 8] Detecting permissions for camera access

Here is the feature request: Feature#3837401 - [New_Feature_Requirement] [iOS 8] Detecting permissions for camera access
Problem: The camera privacy control is now required by iOS 8 for all regions. With iOS 8 any application that use camera encountered with a dialog asking for permission.
http://useyourloaf.com/blog/2014/07/16/ios-8-camera-privacy-settings.html
But we cannot detect permission for camera access by AIR.
StatusEvent event not firing by AIR: "Note: This event is not dispatched on the AIR platform. It is used only in Flash Player."
Camera - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference
So, if user don't allow use camera our application even cannot detect that. It could make application useless. Also it could cause problems with our applications in AppStore.
Please consider to provide some way to handle camera access. It could be StatusEvent like with Flash Player.

Setting up permissions for shared access

I'm at work as we have 2 macs set up
I'm on Mac_A and my collegue is on MAC_B
He edits the work on MAC_B and once he has finished he Saves it across to MAC_A Desktop
This was all working fine until I did a reinstall of MAC_A. Now when he copies the data across it copies it in and leaves the no entry sign up and I have to go in and change the permissions. How can I set this up to avoid changing it everytime.
I obviously set it up with no problems in the beginning, just can't remember.
Many thanks
Matt

I've worked it out, I need to avoid all the accounts sharing.
In System preferences enable file sharing. Then use the
afp://172.0.1...... that is given.
On the other computer go to Finder connect to server it will ask for a password and then the user has full access.
When they drop it on the desktop the other user will have full control.

Setting Oracle Permissions for file access from a pl/sql function

I have a pl/sql function that calls a java method which moves a
file from a directory to another.
Since we are using Linux, Oracle wants some permissions.
Those permissions are set using:
call dbms_java.grant_permission(USER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
FILE, permission)
OK, i want to use this in my pl/sql function, but it doesn't
work.
My function looks like something like this:
-- some pl/sql code
dbms_java.grant_permission(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
sourceFILE, 'write');
dbms_java.grant_permission(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
destFILE, 'write');
flag := move(sourceFILE, destFILE);
-- flag is for 1 -> done and 0 -> error
-- some more code ...
The problem is the lines of
dbms_java.grant_permission(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',
sourceFILE, 'write');
do not work!
When i grant permissions manually in sql plus it works great,
but when i do it from the function it does not work!
Any ideas anyone?
Any help would be appreciated.

The command :
dbms_java.grant_permission
(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',sourceFILE, 'write');
is right.
Open sqlplus
Connect as sys or system
type :
execute dbms_java.grant_permission
(someUSER, 'java.io.FilePermission',sourceFILE, 'write');
commit;
try to compile again your procedure...does it work now ?
bye

Error message: There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto library. Do you want iPhoto to repair permissions for this library for you?

I have been using iPhoto for years. Today when I tried to upload pictures from camera, I received the above error message. I select "Repair", enter my password, and then a message "iPhoto was unable to repair permissions for the library" appears. I select "Quit" and it closes iPhoto. Quit is the only option. What has happened? I have tried to access the photos via other avenues such as uploading to gmail, and the photos load fine. I have about 28,000 photos.
I do not know what version of iPhoto I am using as I am unable to access the software. I have a iMac OS X (10.7.5). What should I do?

Select the iPhoto application in the Applications folder and type Command+i to bring up its Info Window. There will tell the version number. If it's iPhoto 9 or later apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Make Flash Plug-In for Firefox Remember Privacy Settings for Camera and Mic Access on Local File

My company is using Flash Player to develop some kiosk-style applications to run on a standalone computer (no network connection). This computer will contain web pages containing Flash content. They will be opened from the local HD with Firefox with the Adobe Flash plug-in (v11.7.700.224). One of the applications accesses the microphone hooked up to the computer. When this application is started, it always asks for permission for "local" to access the microphone and camera. In previous versions of our system, we could click "Remember" if we did it once and that would make it so it wouldn't ask for permissions again (in this case, the Remember option isn't available, and the site settings don't even offer the Privace tab). However, in the previous case, we were running IE with a previous ActiveX Flash version (unfortunately, this approach is no longer available as we have had to switch to Windows 8 and that changes the game with IE and Flash entirely).
At this point, we have tried to use the Global Settings for "Camera and Microphone Settings by Site..." to enter "Local" as an always allowed site. This does not seem to have any effect. We also tried entering the root directory of the applications in "Trusted Location Settings", but that also seemed to have no effect.
I'm not sure what has fundamentally changed here. I think there might be some differences in the Plug-In version (compared to ActiveX), but I'm not sure what they might be or how to do the same thing as before.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Torrey

Chris,
We learned that the Privacy tab (in Settings) can be found under the Flash plug-in for Firefox, but only if Firefox is running under an administrator.
Unfortunately, we haven't had much luck with the mms.cfg file. The following was used in the mms.cfg file (placed in both the %WINDIR%\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash and %WINDIR%\System32\Macromed\Flash” directories):
AVHardwareDisable = 0
AVHardwareEnabledDomain = local
AVHardwareEnabledDomain = 127.0.0.1
AVHardwareEnabledDomain = localhost
AutoUpdateDisable = 1
The AVHardwareEnabledDomain settings seem to be getting ignored regardless of whether the user is a standard user or an administrator. I also checked to make sure it wasn't just a local problem by going to a website that uses a microphone (http://www.testden.com/accent-reduction/systemcheck.htm). Adding the requested domain to the list (AVHardwareEnabledDomain = train.act360.com) still didn't bypass the allow/deny dialog box.
We know that the mms.cfg file is being read because setting "AVHardwareDisable = 1" will result in no prompt and that section being greyed out in Global Settings. I saw a post that suggested this setting was required to even make the AVHardwareEnabledDomain work, but it seems to block the local entirely and still brings up the dialog query on the internet site.
Thanks,
Torrey

Read-only access permissions for new files/folders?

System:
Clean Install on new intel Xserve
10.4.8 Server w/ Open Directory
Windows clients can read/write completely fine...
Clients connecting using AFP (whether Standard or Kerberos authentication) can access files, but when new files/folders are created on the server, they register as full permissions for the user who created them, but not for the rest of the group.
The share(s) in question are set using POSIX from WGM: Full access for owner/group/everyone (changed it to this thinking it would help, but it does not). Of course, no one can make changes to a newly-created/deposited files/folders, which is just plain silly.
I can chmod the permissions recursively from a script (which fixes the problem, of course) on a regular basis so that its not (as much of) an issue, but there is still a 5-minute lag for the script to kick in, since we don't want to bombard the server with chmod requests every minute....which is unnecessary in the first place!
I have plenty of other setups which are identical but have no such issue...
Any reason why POSIX permissions on the share are being ignored from every user account?
Thanks,
k

"That's default posix behaviour no matter what access permissions you set on the sharepoint."
I'm afraid this is dead wrong. What matters most is how you set permissions on the share, not if you've chosen to inherit vs. using POSIX. POSIX is still used in inherit functions, though you can use ACL's to override them. In this case, ACL's are not being used on those shares (though we tried it).
After all, why would Apple (let alone anyone else) even offer the ability to change POSIX permissions on a share if it didn't have any effect? That would be somewhat contradictory in nature.
Like I said before, I have several other installations which are identically setup that have no such issues.
As for Windows, it is also not set to inherit permissions; we're setting those explicitly. And they work fine.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
k

I have updated to ios 7 and Microsoft outlook web access for work emails no longer works nor my remote access can you help

This happened to me as well. I read somewhere else that resetting the network settings (General, Reset, Reset Network Settings) would help and it partially did. I get half (the folders) of the Web Access screen rather than a blank screen. I tried tihs a few more times and got the right half (the messages) on occasion but never the whole web page.

Permissions for Linux user accessing Leopard share

We have a very simple networking setup at our video post production facility. Basically, files are shared everywhere and to everyone. No open directory or DNS serving. Just AFP and SMB.
Our Linux based Smoke/Flame/Lustre system needs access to the files severed/shared by an Xserve with a big attached RAID. It has no problem connecting or seeing the files. However, it typically is denied write permissions. When the Smoke operator creates a folder on the share he can't access the folder until I grant the Others/Everyone group read and write perms. The Linux user logs in with the same user account that everyone else uses.
Some time ago, the always smashing Gerrit DeWitt gave me some terminal commands to set ACLs for users/groups of this shared RAID. They work beautifully and I have had no permissions issues since applying them. Except for this Linux system.
Would it be good practice to use this command to set the Everyone group permissions for this share?
sudo chmod -R +ai "group:everyone allow readattr,readextattr,readsecurity,\
list,search,read,execute,writeattr,writeextattr,delete,\
append,write,deletechild,add_file,addsubdirectory,\
fileinherit,directoryinherit" "/Volumes/RAIDH/Smoke_InfernoStorage"
Also, is there some configuration change I could make to the Linux system to make it a little more Mac compatible in this area?
Thanks

It's worth checking into - let us know what you find. What you describe certainly sounds like a problem with permission propagation settings for SMB / Samba since the AFP side works fine.
I've seen other posts about problems that crop up because of differences in the versions of Samba employed between systems, so that's a possibility as well. And I'd have no suggestions for you in that regard other than some searching of the web for clues as to how to work with that issue.

Lightroom 5.6 cannot detect my D610 for camera tethering.

Lightroom 5.6 cannot detect my D610 for camera tethering. I had this problem for quite some time. But before my tether would usually work but it would take a very long time or i need to turn the camera on and off or remove the cable a couple of times just so that the lightroom can detect it. But just recently while tethering in the middle of the shoot it got disconnected then after that my lightroom won't detect my camera anymore. Whats wrong with it? any fix? The reason i purchased Lightroom because of its easy tethering, but sad to say now I can't even use it.
OS: Windows 8.1

Exactly the same problem here. Used to work from time to time, now not at all. No software change in-between.

Unbootable after Permissions for "Everyone" = "No access"

I may have done something bad. I happened to look at permissions for my main (internal) drive for my iMac, "Macintosh HD." It said that access for "Everyone" was "Read only." I thought to myself, "I don't want everyone able to read everything on my disk." I also vaguely remembered (possibly incorrectly) that I might have changed that myself in the past. So I thought I would try it set at "No access." The first bad symptom was that my laser printer stayed in a state of being paused, regardless of hitting the "Resume printer" button repeatedly. So I thought something was hung up only with printing, and I tried to reboot the computer. Unfortunately, it would not boot back up, getting hung up at the gray screen with Apple logo and “spinning Stonehenge”! It did boot up with the Mac OS X Install DVD, which saw “Macintosh HD,” so I used Disk Utility to repair the drive, which Disk Utility said was OK, and it repaired some corrections (nothing conspicuously about “Macintosh HD” as a drive). Rebooting to “Macintosh HD” still did not work! (For some reason, it would not boot into the recent version of Drive Genius DVD.) It booted into TechTool Pro 6.0.3’s DVD, which made some favorable changes to the volume structure, and it corrected some permissions. Afterward, the iMac still would not boot into “Macintosh HD.” My latest Time Machine backup is a little bit old (a week or two), and I do have newer backups of certain files on an external drive, so I could restore it via Time Machine if necessary. But I suppose I would rather undo what caused this inaccessibility, tentatively my change of the permissions because all of this happened immediately after that change, and have everything as it was yesterday. Any advice and lessons would be appreciated.

Thanks for your quick reply. I'm not with my iMac now but will try it tonight. Regarding your solution A1: does Command-S work as Terminal, or is Terminal needed at all? Does it matter if the screen at which it is stalled is not blue (which might be the background before Users' accounts appear?)? It is a gray screen with Apple logo. I have also found the following post which gives a different solution: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15469394#15469394 That user described the stall as similar to mine: "the gray screen of death with the perpetual wheel." That solution apparently requires use of Terminal. Can I access that via the Mac OS X Install DVD?

Access Permissions for instances of a subform

Is there any way to set access permissions for an instance of a subform rather than the subform as a whole? Especially for a template that has a certain number of instances saved, where only instances which have been previously saved should be access="nonInteractive" but new instances should be editable.

Like PeeJay says, a custom window controller seems the way to go. Try creating a subclass of NSWindowController, with header something like this:
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
@interface MyWindowController : NSWindowController
IBOutlet NSTextField *infoField;
-(void)setInfoText:(NSString *)str;
@end
The implementation of the setInfoText would be something like:
-(void)setInfoText:(NSString *)str{
[infoField setStringValue:str];
Create a nib file with your window in interface builder. Drop the header file for your custom window controller into the interface builder window. Set the custom class of the nib's File's Owner to MyWindowController. You can then hook up the window and infoField outlets from File's Owner to your window.
In the body of your code where you open a new info window, add something like:
MyWindowController *windowController=[[MyWindowController alloc] initWithWindowNibName:@"nameOfWindowNibFile"];
[windowController setInfoText:@"Whatever"];
[windowController showWindow:self];
If you are going to have an undetermined amount of these custom window, it might be a good idea to store the window controller instances in a mutable array, rather than retaining instance variables for each one.
