Smart HDD command for disabling AAC

Hi all,
I change my internal HDD on my mac mini.
I intall Leopard on it .
I found on the HDD manufacturer web site that the mode AAC (Automatic Acoustic Management) in the smart HDD items needs to be disabled.
I know how to find the smart HDD status value ( in System profiler ), but I would like to know if a application exists to set or unset a smart value on a HDD under Leopard .
It seems that the HDD firmware is delivered with the AAC value set to QUIET.
Thank in advance for your help

Yes the manufacturer give a DOS tool that can be booted from Floppy or CDROM . The problem is that my minimac doesn't boot the CDROM .
I don't know how to boot this CDROM on my mac mini .
Do you have an idea ?

  • UNIX command for disabling Firewall in Leopard?

    I'd like to use ARD to send a unix command to all my Macs running Leopard that will set the OS's application firewall to "allow all incoming connections." I believe that's the default setting, but I've run into some machines that are setting specific access - not sure how, don't really care, just want to turn it off.
    I've been reading up on /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw but the Help seems incomplete and I'm not sure this will accomplish what I'm after.

    defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharing.firewall state -boolean No
    followed by a reboot works like a charm. thanks for you help.

  • TextPad - command for disabling limit

    Hi, I want to print the number of bottles in the range of 99 to 0 like the one below. However, when I attempted to run Java from TextPad, the output shows only 74 to 0, instead of 99 to 0, which I was supposed to be getting it. This led me to assume that there is a restriction imposed by TextPad on the number of text characters display in the command prompt window. In fact, I had the same problem with BlueJ, but that was solved when I went to Options menu and selected "Unlimited Buffering". Is there a similar command that release the limit and print all numbers from 99 to 0 in TextPad? I appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks.
    Note that I already posted my similar question in TextPad's forum last month ago, but I haven't received any response from them yet. I figured I would get a better response in here given that there is a number of TextPad users who frequent this forum.

    Anyway, thanks for your help. It's a shame that the others at TextPad's forum didn't bother to respond my month-old post. ive posted there twice and got good responses.
    Had they responded and gave me the answer that I'm looking for, I would gladly purchase their product, but now unfortunately for them, they just lost me as another potential customer and deservedly so.dont buy it. its a ripoff. youll grow out of it real quick and realize you should be using eclipse or something.

  • Wanted: shell command for disabling shutdowns

    Hi @ all,
    I'm administering a little workgroup. Unfortunately most of them shut down their machines before going home.
    I found a way diabling the shutdown possibility (click on shutdown button doesnt invoke anything) by using Onyx.
    But I would like to diable this functions for all users without the need of installing Onyx on each and every machine.
    I'm certain that there must be a shell command, but I just wasnt able to google it up.
    Thanks for any help in advance

    Consider this link: http://bit.ly/bPiNDF
    Granted, it's for 10.5, but it should remain viable. I shouldn't need to remind you to test this on a non-production system first =)
    Just remember that even if you DO manage to make it very difficult for users to shutdown the system, users are very persistent, and you may soon find machines that are shutdown via the cord being pulled from the wall.
    It may be better to issue a policy that states that shutting down their machine is "wrong" or something to that effect.

  • Questions on Commands for planning application

    Hi,
    1. Where can i get the information on commands for planning functions?
    2. What is the difference between
    ---Execute planning function simple and -
    Execute planning function
    3. I create planning layout with few buttons
    a. Copy: I clicked on the copy button and can see the data in the layout
    b. Save: Clicked on the save icon, Data saved into the planning cube
    c. Change. : clicked on the change and changed few values and then clicked on SAVE button. Data got saved into my planning cube.
    Now I my requirement is when user open the planning layout, It should only be in display mode. But currently automatically all the keyfigures are in change mode (Is it because in query designer, I checked "Start query in the change mode?)
    When user opens the planning layout, he should run the copy function, then should save the data into the planning cube and then should be allowed to chagne. Change button should be in active until data is saved into the plannigng cube. IS this possible?
    Thanks
    Annie

    Hi Deepthi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I did as you mentioned and its working as expected.
    User wants something like this
    1. Execute the planning layout.
    2. Click on the copy function
    3. Save the data
    4. Click on the change button so that data can be changed now.
    As per your solution, without have change button its working perfectly. But now i want to have change button on the layout. Initially change button should be disabled. When i save the data then it should get active.
    I did the following things but didnt work
    1. Save button i have two commands
    a. Save data
    b. Set_item_parameters
    2. Change button> disable>set_data_entry_mode.
    After executing the layout. I could copy the data and save it. BUT after saving it change button is not getting active.
    I think i did do something in save button (B). I just mentioned button group but didnt mention the change button. Can you please help me?
    Thanks

  • Could not complete the smart sharpen command because there is not enough memory (RAM)

    Hi,
    I'm trying to complete the AutoSharpen (Filter->Sharpen->AutoSharpen) feature but, i'm getting the following error when i click on "Ok".
    Error in Dialogue Box "Could not complete the smart sharpen command because there is not enough memory (RAM)".
    Request the SME's and Adobe community team members to help me overcome this step to proceed further.
    I'm using a 32 Bit Win7 OS and have a 4GB RAM on board.
    Regards,
    Sachin_

    As Curt says, Photoshop got more hungry for RAM from CS4, and 32bit systems just weren't cutting it, but there was a trick we used to use to squeeze a bigger slice of the available installed 4Gb
    Run the Command Prompt as Administrator, and type:
    "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072"   (I can't remember whether the quote marks are needed or not.)
    That used to work for me with XP, and it is _supposed_ to work with Windows 7, but I know it doesn't always.
    If it doesn't work, or has unwanted consequences, turn it off with:
    "bcdedit /deletevalue IncreaseUserVa"
    If you want to research it before trying, seach for 'Windows 7 3Gb switch'.

  • Disable Inbox Rules for Disable Users

    I have found that when our helpdesk disables an AD user account (terminated employee) that has an Outlook inbox rule to forward the email to an email address outside the organization, emails sent to the former employee are still forwarded to that outside
    email address.  I would like to run a script each day that queries AD for all disabled accounts, removes any forwarding SMTP adresses, then removes all mailbox inbox rules.  I have been trying to use get-aduser against a DC and export the list of
    disabled users, this works fine.  I then take that csv, import it and use -foreach-object to set the forwarding smtp address to null.  I would then like to use the same csv file to run the -removeinbox rule command against the list.  I am having
    a hard time time combining the commands I need into a PS script that works against both AD and Exchange.
    Anyone have some powershell kung fu to assist me?  Thank you!
    ~Eric

    Hi Eric,
    According to your description, I understand that you want a script to get a list of disabled AD user, then removes any forwarding SMTP addresses, then removes all mailbox inbox rules.
    We can run following command to get a list of disabled AD user in PowerShell:
    Get-ADUser -Filter 'Enabled -eq "false"' | select name,userprincipalname
    More details about “How Can I Get a List of All the Disabled User Accounts in Active Directory? “, for your reference:

    Also, run below command to disable forwarding SMTP address and inbox rule:
    Get-Mailbox  -Identity xxxx | Set-Mailbox -DeliverToMailboxAndForward $false
    Get-InboxRule –Mailbox xxxx | remove-InboxRule
    However, we recommend use this disable AD user to disable mailbox.
    By the way, this question will related to the script of Exchange server, please contact relevant team so that you can get more professional suggestions. For your convenience:

  • Sun IdM 7.1 - 'Is Disabled' shows 'No' for disabled user in configurator UI

    Hi All,
    I have user1 in SIM who has been disabled on RACF through SIM.
    But, when I open this user obejct in SIM, logged in as configurator, the 'Is Disabled' column for the RACF resource shows 'No', when it should be showing 'Yes'.
    I've checked user1 on RACF and user1 has been disabled there.
    Below is the code which I've used to disable the user on RACF:
                 <set>
                    <concat>
                      <s>view.update.accounts[</s>
                      <ref>appname</ref>
                      <s>].selected</s>
                    </concat>
                   <s>true</s>
                </set>
              <set>
                <concat>
                  <s>view.waveset.accounts[</s>
                  <ref>appname</ref>
                  <s>].disabled</s>
                </concat>
                <s>true</s>
              </set>
              <set>
                <concat>
                  <s>view.accounts[</s>
                  <ref>appname</ref>
                  <s>].disabled</s>
                </concat>
                <s>true</s>
              </set>
                <set>
                <concat>
                  <s>view.accounts[</s>
                  <ref>appname</ref>
                  <s>].disable</s>
                </concat>
                <s>true</s>
              </set>(In the above code, the 'appname' variable will contain the value as 'RACF' at run-time).
    I've tried various other things, but still the 'Is Disabled' column shows 'No' only.
    Also, apart from the above code, I'm also using resource action which actually runs the RACF command to disable the user on RACF.
    FYI - I'm using Sun Identity Manager 7.1
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Check if you have customized
    'Default RACF ListUser AttrParse', if so it should have the attribute
    *<multiLine>*
    *<t> ATTRIBUTES=</t>*
    *<str name='ATTRIBUTES' multi='true' delim=' ' noval='NONE'/>*
    *<skipToEol/>*
    Reason:
    Since this is the attribute reference in the method isDisabled() in your com.waveset.adapter.RACFResourceAdapter.
    Thanks

  • Instructions for disabling Mail.app

    The problem: Notification Center seems to send a command to Mail.app to open when I receive a calendar alert.
    Simple Concept: I don't want Notification Center to open Mail.app!! I want Notification Center to give me notifications!! (What a novel concept!)
    I have been unable to get Mountain Lion to not open Mail.app when I receive a calendar notification.
    So ultimately I want the Notification Center in Mountain Lion not to tell Mail.app to open for a given calendar event, when I've already gotten the emailed notification in Sparrow! Alas, this simple request seems to be impossible, according to the infrastructure built into OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion).
    Technical details:
    These are notifications from Google Calendar, which I use very regularly. Turning off the emailed alerts from Google Calendar is not a solution!!! More on this below.*
    I use Sparrow as my mail client. IMHO, Gmail (Sparrow) >>>> Mail.app. [For those of you non-geek readers, that ">>>>" means "is much much much better than".] Sparrow is selected as the default mail client in Mail.app settings.
    I am terminal-savvy; I don't mind disabling things at the system level and am capable with Unix commands. I haven't even been able to find a terminal command to disable Mail.app - because I don't want to use it at all, and would prefer to just disable it on my account.
    If I tell ML to ignore alerts, then I won't get the alerts in notification center when I am in front of my mac.** (Duh)
    More info below:
    *I want Google Calendar to send me email alerts, because I don't sit at my mac all day long. I have to work on a Micro$oft piece of trash all day long. So I want to get an email reminder at that POS while logged into my gmail that I have a calendar appointment. So disabling the email reminders in Google Calendar is NOT a solution. (!!!!!!!!!!!)
    **I want Notification Center to tell me that I have a calendar event. I don't stay logged into gmail on the browser at home on my personal computer, I have my mail client and calendar clients to do the work that would normally take up two browser windows, and what's the point of notifications if they aren't being used??!?

    The Health dashboard suddenly becoming blank is due to a bug in 8.0.2 Health App.
    Many people have found success in getting the data display back by turning the phone off / on again, however the problem will return eventually.
    I have had this issue occur several times already. I have found that when this problem occurs, it can be ignored as MyFitnessPal is still collecting data.
    The next day when I open Health, in my experience, the dashboard is empty but all of the data (charts, etc) is there. I just have to re-select my dashboard items.
    I'm hoping 8.1 will resolve a lot of these nagging bugs in iOS 8.

  • UNIX Commands to disable Expose and Dashboard

    Teacher looking to block/disable Expose and Dashboard on iMac 2.2 gHz running 10.6.1
    I use ARD 3.2 and want to use a UNIX command to disable features on the students computers. If you know other Commands, maintenance scripts, permissions, etc..those would be helpful as well.
    Thanks for your time and help.
    David

    Hi David
    To disable Dashboard:
    defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES
    You have to restart the Dock afterwards:
    killall Dock
    You still have to tear Dashboard off the Dock although you could amend the com.apple.dock.plist If you wanted to? Amend the persistent-apps tile data settings. To re-enable Dashboard at a future date:
    defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO
    Restart the Dock again with the same command.
    Not sure if there is a command to disable Expose? I think some of its settings can be found in com.apple.systempreferences.plist? If it looks like it has what you want you should be able copy it either using the Copy feature in ARD or sending a Unix command like cp (man cp) instead.
    Alternatively apply the plist to an OD Group as a managed preference assuming you've an OD environment?

  • System prerences won't save keyboard commands for dashboard or desktop

    I clicked the checkboxes to turn on the keyboard commands for Dashboard and Desktop. I used control-up arrow for Dashboard, and control-down arrow for Desktop. When I restart, the commands don't work. I thought maybe I had made System Preferences crash, so I made a point of quitting right after making the change. When I restarted, the commands were disabled again. This has happened several times.
    What gives?

    At a guess, I would think this error code has to do with the video artifacts you are experiencing. You might try reseating all the cables to the display. If the position of the screen makes a difference, there may be damage to a cable, particularly where it goes through the hinge.
    Apple is the keeper of the error codes. If you have access to an Apple Store, you could probably ask about this.
    Don't know about the other intermittent problems. Does an external keyboard work? If so, there's likely a problem with the internal, maybe even again, a cable or connection.
    You could also try creating a new use account and see if the keyboard and mouse problems persist. If not, there could be some sort of software corruption in your usual account. Ditto with the freezing.
    Good luck!
