Portable app on several usb drives

I have created a working portable ZAV app on a USB drive. I've tried
various ways of copying the "master" usb drive to other drives.
I have also tried a drive image program. However when I try to use any of
the other usb drives my app gives an error along the lines of the sandbox is
corrupt.
If I want the same app on a usb drive, do I really need to compile each one
separately? Is there a simple way to duplicate the app on several usb
drives?

Reformatted, need to restore Mail.app from external USB drive

I just reformatted my Macbook, and I'd like to restore my Mail.app to its former glory without having to reinstall every single email account (I've got 7).
If I copy ~/Library/Mail on my backup into the same directory on my Macbook, will Mail.app just start working again? Or is it not that easy?
Thank you for your time!
Macbook (White 1.83ghz) Mac OS X (10.4.8)

After another couple rounds of Googling/Knowledge-Basing, I found this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301239#mail
I only needed to copy two sets of files: ~/Library/Mail and ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist . I copied both of those from my backup to my Macbook, and my mail is right where it was last night.
Thanks...uhh...me. And Apple. And that sweet knowledge base search function. Gotta love that.

App on Usb drive to iphone transfer

Ok, So I made a game in xcode when I used to have a mac mini. I no longer have the mac mini, but I did however find an old usb drive that had my game (in xcode ofc) on it. And I was wondering how I could go about getting the app from the usb drive to my iphone. It written in an ancient version of xcode but I'm still curious. Thanks guys!

Not possible. In order to put an app on an IOS device you need both a Mac running Xcode and you need to be a member of the IOS Development program.

Running skype off a USB drive

is it actually possible to run skype off a USB flash drive, and if so, how do i specify an install path in order to have it install directly onto my USB?

Yes. There are no problems with running Skype installed on a USB drice.
You can download this portable installation:

You can also create your own "portable" installation on your USB drive.

Yes that should work. Do you have problems accessing the drives?

R&R Backup (Image) on two external USB drives

Hi Forum,
in the early BIOS state of my T500 and working with Vista I had to rebuild my system several times due to OS failures. For that reason I periodically run R&R and make images on an external USB drive.
Since I'm traveling very much I always have the USB drive with the image with me. The drive contains one basic backup and some incremental backups up to level 25 (at the time being).
Now my goal: in case of a theft or a failure of that USB drive, I want to keep a second image on another USB drive at home.
Now my questions:
1: Is it possible to make backups with R&R (basic and incremental) of one computer on several USB drives?
In that case R&R must detect which incremental level is present on the USB drive and create the appropriate backup (management of the levels on the USB drive, not on the computer).
Example: USB drive A contains one basic backup and some incremental backups to level 12 (consistent) - USB drive B contains one basic backup and some incremental backups to level 17 (consistent as well).
2: If the answer to question 1 is "yes" - does R&R manage this automatically in the windows interface or is it necessary to use the DOS level (rrcmd.exe). Which switches are to be set?
Many thanks for help
Axel

It is a difficult question: the help file isn't entirely clear.
Here is my recent experience: using R&R 4.21 I had backed up my machine to the internal drive + 1 external USB drive several times, so that there was the base back-up and several incrementals on both drives. I also had copied the base backup + earlier incrementals to DVDs using the advanced menu entry for that task, just to be on the safe side. And, using another program (the free version of Syncback by 2BrightSparks), I regularly duplicate documents + pictures to the USB drive, so I'm covered in 3 different ways on 2 types of external hardware.
On one or two occasions I did an incremental backup on the internal drive only--but the next time I did an incremental with the external USB drive attached, the missed incrementals were synchronized onto the external drive.
Now, 2 weeeks ago I decided to zap the main disk and rebuilt the OS + programs to have a "clean slate" for 2010. When I had finished reinstalling everything minus personal files, I made a base backup (the only choice offered) on the internal drive with the external drive attached. This effectively erased the existing earlier backups on the external drive and copied over the new base backup.
So this synchronization only operates in one direction: the external USB drive's store of R&R backups is a replica of what is on the main internal drive.
I strongly suggest trying this all out (i.e. missing an incremental backup on the external drive, then making sure it has catched up after the next incremental backup) after making an external copy on DVD of the R&R backups. In fact, if you have the nerve, the patience and the time (and the DVD backups!), you should also try a bare metal restore of the DVD backup (I did last year when I bought this machine and hadn't too many personal files on it-- R&R 4.21 does actually work!)
sorry i can't be more specific, but my advice is to practice the "disaster recovery" at least once, early on, in order to be sure how it works if disaster does strike.

Duplicate USB Drives With Automator or AS?

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way that I could connect several USB drives into a hub, have Automator copy certain files to each of them, then eject them (and maybe a notification from Growl would be nice. . . but not necessary ). Does anyone here have an idea how to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Lawrence

Ah, yeah, automator... a system to make the world easier by being painfully obtuse. yeeee...
try this. copy the following into the AppleScript editor, modify it with the appropriate details, save it as a script, then attach it as a folder action to /Volumes (that I know you can do - this is just a pared-down version of my own folder action).
property masterFolder : "hd:users:yourname:path:to:master folder"
on adding folder items to thisFolder after receiving theseThings
          set workingVolumes to {}
          repeat with thisItem in theseThings
                    tell application "Finder"
                              if kind of thisItem is "volume" and ejectable of thisItem is true then
                                        copy disk thisItem to end of workingVolumes
                                        set theFiles to every item of folder masterFolder
duplicate theFiles to thisItem
                              end if
                    end tell
          end repeat
delay 10
-- you could probably work out a more elegant way of testing whether the files are finished copying, but for now...
          tell application "Finder" to eject workingVolumes
end adding folder items to
Eventually you'll want to find a more precise specifier - this will copy the files to any ejectable drive you mount on the system that can be written to - but it's a start.

Non-existent usb drives

Hi, I've just picked up an IdeaCentre K230 with Vista (64). I didn't see any direct forums for this model, but I have a good idea this is a Vista problem more than a Lenovo prolem.
Since first boot I've seen several usb drives in "My Computer" that quite simply don't exist. These drives all disappear when I select one and choose the "Safely remove" option. This is pretty much just an annoyance, but I'd like to remove them anyway. Any information as to why these would show up, and how to remove them would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Do you have a memory card reader? Sometimes they show up that way.

I have recently deleted several old backups from a portable usb drive (formated NTFS-3g(MacFUSE). The macmini can´t see it anymore but my imac does?

I have recently deleted several old backups from a portable usb drive (formated NTFS-3g(MacFUSE). The macmini can´t see it anymore but my imac does? The usb ports of the mac mini can still see my other drives formated with FAT32.

Thanks, it is working now, after I have installed NTFS3G.
I did not format the drive. I was using it as purchased to do backups for a while. After the corporate backup system was working correctly again I was using the disk at home for my homevideos. Since the corporate backup was running correctly for ten days in a row, I have decided to delete those backupfiles on the usb drive. Each backup was a folder consisting of almost 30GB data, mirroring the servers harddrive which is running on windows xp. After I have deleted those folders, only the video files remaind and I could not open the drive on the macmini anymore.

Help! Portable USB drive recognition problems...

Hi
I posted this as a reply to a similar thread also.
My friend put some files onto my portable USB drive from his PC, and now my mac ain't reading the USB - I need the files off it urgently. Anybody got any tips????

Hi
I have had problems getting a Mac to recognise a memory stick and I've found that rebooting OS X can sometimes help, as can plugging and unplugging it several times.
Most memory sticks are FAT 32 formatted by default and Windows can read/write these ok; in theory, so can OS X but it doesn't always work reliably for me. I have found that using Disk Utility to format the memory stick using an OS X format can make it more reliable, but of course that won't help you in this situation because Windows won't recognise a Mac formatted memory stick and formatting will clear off the files you want to get at.

How do I make a backup recovery using my portable usb drive?

I have an 8gb usb flash drive, and I tried to backup my system onto it, and couldn't. It said "Please insert a usb flash greater than 7.6gb". So I inserted another portable usb drive that had over 180gb of free space, and it still keeps repeating the same message even though the drive clearly has more than 7.6gb on it, it has 180gb. So how do I correct the problem so that I can backup my recovery system? My laptop is brand new, I just bought it a few days ago, I haven't even had it a week. Here is the computer stats
Toshiba Satellite L455D-S5976
OP: Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit
AMD Sempron SI-42
2GB DDR2 RAM, 250GB HDD

Duplicating your post on the same Category won't help you much and it makes it difficult by
keeping track.
The problem you are having is related to the fact that your USB Drive format is FAT or FAT 32.
This type of format doesn't allow for a single file to be greater than 2GB and 4GB respectively,
and the single backup file you are trying to copy is greater than that so it doesn't allow it.
What you can do is format your USB Drive to be NTFS, which has no limit on what size a file can be
except the size of capacity the USB can store, but I'm not sure that's a good idea because of
the disadvantages of the format.
Also you can burn it to DVD's, which is recommended, or buy an external Hard Drive.
When you insert the USB go to My Computer and left click on the USB icon and go to properties
and there you will see what format it is.

Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted. Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file? Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb again?

Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted. Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file? Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb from the App Store again? My problem is my 4Gb/month allowance on a 12 month contract. I cannot purchase a data block from my ISP and although my speed is theoretically slowed to 64k after reaching my 4Gb, it actually ceases to download in reality.

HI tasclix, it depends what you mean by an OS X boot drive.
If you want a recovery disk from which you can reinstall (by re-downloading) or recover from a time machine backup, then nbar is correct.
If, however, you want to boot and run the OS X installer from the USB drive (so that you don't need to download again), then you will need a copy of "Install OS X Mavericks.app"; see this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5856
Before downloading again, search your system to see if the installer is still there - it's usually in the /Applications folder unless it has been deleted, but check your whole system for it anyway, you never know, you might still have it somewhere.

I plugged in a USB drive, tried to open Finder, got the message Finder.app can't be opened - 10810, went into terminal.app, messed up, now terminal screen blank. how do i regain terminal in order to fix finder problem?

With my iMac running, I plugged in a USB drive. When I clicked on finder, I got the message Finder.app can't be opened - 10810. I removed the USB drive. I messed up while in Terminal.app trying to fix Finder problem. Now my terminal screen is blank, just the cursor, but no action after typing a command & clicking enter. Help!

I finally figured out a way to Restart (normal way wasn't working...) & that Restart DID FIX both the Terminal problem AND the Finder problem. So easy, yet so elusive. Thanks so much.

Desktop drive icon missing for just one of several USB external drives

I have a Mac Mini running OS 10.8.2 Server. There are 12 Seagate Flex USB drives (attached through two USB 2.0 powered hubs) and 3 Western Digital Firewire drives, and until last week all functioned absolutely normally. Last week the desktop icon for one (just one!) of the Firewire drives dissappeared, but the drive is still mounted in /Volumes. It is even correctly shared and can be remotelly accessed on another Mini and a MacBook. Disk Utility shows that it is mounted, and the Repair Disk function unmounts, checks, reports all is well and remounts. I'm just missing the icon in Finder. Where is it?
Before you suggest it.... Yes, hard disks is checked under Finder Devices preferences. All the other drives do show as expected in both the root folder view and on the Finder sidebar. This one drive is mounted and visible in ls -ls /Volumes, but missing from desktop, root folder and sidebar in Finder.

I am having the exact issue with both 10.8.5 and 10.9.1 servers.
The server is doing well and then one day without notice or failure the desktop icon for the shared volume is gone. The share remains mounted and available to users. The volume is not showing damaged or any other problem. The volume can be found in terminal and by doing a finder go to the /Volumes area and all is there. But, even though disk utility shows it mounted and all else is good, Server app then starts to loose the volume for maintenance and propogation etc, it still shares but can't be seen or touched by GUI's.
I also was easily able to get back all through Backups that were up to date so no data loss, but this is quite disconcerting.
One possible variable is that both that I have seen are software RAIDs (Disk Utility raids).
If anyone has any thoughts I appreciate it.
The two servers are Mac Pro 2012 4 core 10.8.5 server and Mac Pro 2008 early 4 core 10.9.1 server.
Thanks MDB
