Software compatibility - cloak 1.1 - or some application like

Hi i'm Michele writing from Italy new mac user from a month.
After web searching cannot find if i can use cloak 1.1 software on snow leopard 10.6 without any issue. I ask cause i have to deal with hidden files on my lacie nas and i'd like to do in simpler mode than use terminal. If not usable can someone suggest some other application to do the same?
Thanks for help.

From what I can determine it does, I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible. I tried finding any reference to the app on Tao Effect website, but just some forum comments. The program is universal binary, and the methods to hide/unhide that it uses have not changed. However, the latest update info I could find is that it was updated for 10.4.
So after wasting about 5 minutes trying to determine if it would work, I just downloaded it and it works fine on SL.

I had to reinstall my software but now I am missing some applications like garage band

GarageBand, iMovie and iPhoto aren't included with OS X, so it's normal that you haven't got them after reinstalling Mac OS X.
If your iMac didn't come with DVDs, open the App Store, go to Purchases and download iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand free of charge.
If your iMac came with DVDs or you didn't purchase the iLife apps at the Mac App Store, insert the second Mac OS X disc or Applications disc and install the iLife apps. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version.

I cant open some applications like preview or text edit after installing mavericks, i found a post that said im missing the Base.lproj files, this fixed my calendar application but i need the file for preview, can some one help?

Hi vampyro33,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If it seems like system files are missing and applications are quitting unexpectedly, I'd suggest reinstalling Mavericks:

Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

One thing to check: when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

How can I hide my cam for some applications like messenger, skype, etc.

Hi,
How could I hide my cam for some applications?
Thanks in advance!

There's a support file in the System/Library/QuickTime folder that you can move elsewhere temporarily: QuickTimeUSBVDCDigitizer.component. Don't delete it, just move it. Any apps you open from that point will not have access to the camera. Move the file back to re-activate it (you may need to reboot).
There is also an AppleScript to do the same thing, but I can't guarantee it works for 10.8.

I love shortcuts. I'm completely unnerved when I can't use them because some application like videos or music players block them. Any chance of always giving priority to the firefox shortkeys?

I want to keep my firefox tabs as simple as possible. Don't have much space because I'm using a netbook. So I'd like to erase the "x"-icon in my firefox tabs. control+x works fine, as long as there is no video, music player etc. on the page.
What can I do to always be able to use the firefox shortcuts? And not be stuck on any play or stop buttons...

Hello,
The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
6a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
6b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
If, during the processes of 6a or 6b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
KB19915How to perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software

Can't shut down, some applications don't close and others don't open

I installed Leopard about 3 weeks ago as a clean install not an update. Since then, I have frequent problems shutting down and con only do it manually. I also have some applications - like Firefox - which won't close - the blue light in the dock stays on even after I force quit. Other applications won't open - like Aperture - which seems to get stuck on the serial # screen and never gets further. I have also been getting the dreaded spinning wheel.
I was having this issue on Tiger but I am not sure if it is related to the same problem. It seemed to have something to do with Event Handler...but I am also getting messages similar to one I used to have. "Third Party Client Null - can't create semaphore lock". I am also getting a new message: "Please convert the following to launchd: etc.....
Please help if you can...thanks

By clean install, do you mean "erase and install"? Did you reinstall the problematic progarm ("Event Handler")? If you did reinstall it, do you know if that particular program is Leopard compatible?
Also, what kind of system do you have?

I had installed some applications on my iphone from my friend's pc, but now when i downloaded some apps on my pc andtry to sync it says the installed apps on my iphone would be replaced by the one from my pc. how can i retain all and copy new apps

I got some applications like games etc installed on my iphone through a friend's pc.
now when i downlaoded some apps on my pc and try to sync , it says that the existing apps on my iphone would be replaced by the one in my itune library.
what is the way that i can have the existing apps on my iphone to remain and also install new apps when i download without losing the installed ones

I got some applications like games etc installed on my iphone through a friend's pc.
Were these apps downloaded via your own iTunes AppStore account or your friends?
now when i downlaoded some apps on my pc and try to sync , it says that the existing apps on my iphone would be replaced by the one in my itune library.
That's correct. iTunes will delete any apps you have not downloaded through your own iTunes account. If you did use your own iTunes account, choose iTunes > File > Transfer purchases... to move the apps into your own iTunes Library.
what is the way that i can have the existing apps on my iphone to remain and also install new apps when i download without losing the installed ones
Re-download the apps through your own iTunes account (pay for them if necessary). Apps cannot be shared between different iTunes user accounts.

Some applications don't put accents with non-english keyboard layouts

I'm using a Portuguese keyboard with three different macs running Mac OS Tiger 10.4.8/9. Some applications (like Motion 2 and Swift Publishing 2) don't allow writing some accented characters, like (è) or (ê), that are accessed by Shift+normal key, but they do display correctly other accented letters, for instance (é), witch are accessed directly without the Shift key. This happens only in some applications and with a european keyboard layout (I tried it also with the spanish and french keyboards layouts), but not with other applications (it works all right with Word or iPhoto) and the english keyboards.
Any sugestion as how to solve this? If I create the text in some other application and paste it in Motion it works! But it's a drag.

Urxvt ignores highlightColor in some applications since 9.09

As the subject says, since version 9.09 urxvt's highlighting behavior changed and its highlightColor setting is ignored in some applications, like vim or ncmpcpp, to name a few. Instead of using the specified color, background and foreground colors are simply inverted, which I find somewhat ugly and annoying.
I've asked on irc and no one else seemed to have this problem or was bothered by it. But on the chance that some else is experiencing this, here is a diff patch that restores the old behavior.
