[SOLVED] What is this isus folder?
Hi. A folder named isus just suddenly appeared in my home folder. It contains one file called update.ini.
What is this folder and where did it come from? Maybe I put it there, but I don't remember.
I tried googling it, but I just get a whole buncha stuff about ASUS.

Wow. I do indeed have Maple 11 on my system. So that must be it. It must've been there for quite a while and I just never noticed it before.
Thanks a bunch.

What is this Import folder inside my iphoto folder?
Hi,
I was looking at the size of my iphoto 6 folder before backup, and found a folder I havn't seen before.
There's an Import folder inside my iphoto folder. Inside this import folder I have a Data, Original and Modified folder. All of them with empty subfolders except the data one, which has one year (2004) and inside all 2004 thumbnails. (iphoto/import/data/2004/**)
This thumbanils are duplicated in my iphoto/data/2004 folder.
Does anyone know why iphoto created this folder and why? And if it can be removed?
I tried renaming it and restarting iphoto and nothing bad happened... :o) (But i want to be sure before I backup)
Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)
Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)
Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)I don't know if this will be much help to you, but this is what I've discovered so far. I wish someone from Apple would explain all this to us.
The Original folder contains the the image files imported into you Library.
If your Advanced preferences were set to Copy Files .. when Adding To Library the copy goes here and is never modified by iPhoto.
Any edits to the image result in another copy of the file, with those edits, in the Modified folder.
And I suspect the Data folder contains your original images in thumbnail size for faster viewing in the main iPhoto window.
What I don't understand is why does my original image of 3KB (90x110) become a file of 39KB in the Data folder. What kind of thumbnail is that ?
Can someone from Apple explain this.
I'm trying to make efficient use of disk space and did not select the Advanced preferences setting of Copy Files .. when Adding To Library, so when I saw this file and its size compared to my original I was surprised. -
What does this simple folder action not work?
OK I have been playing with this all weekend. I just wanted a simple folder action to move a file from folder a to folder b. There is really not much to it. The workflow works just fine. "Somtimes" running the script runs the workflow.app. However when I drop a file into folder a - nothing happens. I have enabled folder actions. Can anyone help?
here is a pic of the relative screens that should help you.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
PS I even stopped by my local Genius Bar -- they could not help.Vantive,
Try either:
*on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items*
*tell application "Finder"*
*repeat with this_item in added_items*
*move this_item to folder "Folder B" of folder "Desktop" of folder¬*
*"MyShortName" of folder "Users" of the startup disk*
*end repeat*
*end tell*
*end adding folder items to*
Or:
*on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items*
*tell application "Finder"*
*repeat with this_item in added_items*
*move this_item to "Macintosh HD:Users:MyShortName:Desktop:Folder B"*
*end repeat*
*end tell*
*end adding folder items to*
In either case replace MyShortName with your actual short name. +Make sure the script is saved to your Home/Library/Scripts/Folder Action Scripts folder.+ Then right-click or control-click on "Folder A" and, if necessary, select "Enable Folder Actions." If enabled, right-click or control-click on "Folder A" and select "Attach a Folder Action…" When the Choose-a-File window appears highlight the script and press Choose.
Both of the above scripts worked for me in testing. For what it's worth, both my /Library/LaunchAgents, and /System/Library/LaunchAgents folders are empty.
Good Luck...

[SOLVED] What is this sorting algorithm? (or a new one?)
Hello everyone!
Just before starting, i apologize for my grammar mistakes.
I found a new sorting algorithm but i'm not sure if i really found it. There are too many sorting algorithms and mine is a really simple one; so, i belive that it can be found years ago.
I searched popular sorting algorithms, but none of the them is the answer.
Here is algorithm:
* Search the numbers between brackets
[24 12 12 55 64 18 32 31]
* Find smallest one
[24 12 12 55 64 18 32 31]
^S
* Swap the first item between brackets with smallest one
[12 12 24 55 64 18 32 31]
* Find largest one
[12 12 24 55 64 18 32 31]
^L
* Swap the last item between brackets with largest one
[12 12 24 55 31 18 32 64]
* Move brackets by one.
12[12 24 55 31 18 32]64
* Continue from step one until the array is sorted

Because you already have two variables for largets and smallest, there is no reason to loop through the whole list twice to get each. Loop through the list (or list subset) once, and in each loop check if the current item is smaller than smallest_pos or larger than largest_pos.
This will increase efficiency by a factor of two.
As written I believe it'd be less efficient than even a simple bubble sort. With the above revision it may be comparable to a bubble sort.
Thanks for quick answer and advice. :) I will try to do that. When i'm done, i will post the new code.
Code is tested on codepad. (I edited the code on my phone so, sorry for formatting)

Can we solve this problem -folder with the exclamation icon
What is this folder with the exclamation icon?
Why it happens only to the iPod connected to PC?
Why it is the toughest problem to be solved?
What causes it?
Just would like to share my experience with all of you, my niece has a mini iPod that connects with a PC, however, after ejecting the iPod a few times inproperly, her iPod showed this most notorious evil icon. I followed all the instructions from the Apple web site in this forum, I did nearly ten times of Resets and Restores (I managed to restore but not everytimes), still failed to get rid of this icon, and it jsut would not disappear in the iPod. I just got very frustrated and I asked myself should I connect it with a Mac? Why not? So I connected it with my Mac, no surprise, then I put it in Disk Mode and reconnectted (few attempts), the iPod icon appeared on my Desktop but I still could not do the restore.
As I believed that iPod was the same as an external Hard Disk, and it was broken anyway, why not have another try - so I opened the Disk Utility and saw the iPod there, then I did an Erase (format) the iPod, once completed I reconnected with my Mac again, after 4 attempts, the iPod updater window popup and asked me whether I would like to do a restore, I finally managed to get rid of this icon. I connectted it with PC and was able to do a restore in my PC and got recongzied afterward. It has happened almost for 6 months and I heard that this iPod is still working fine.
My suggestion is - unless you need to do the update of song with your iPod, never and ever charged your iPod via connecting with the PC, I leave my iPod with the Bose docking system and it has no problem at all.My suggestion is - unless you need to do the update of song with your iPod, never and ever charged your iPod via connecting with the PC, I leave my iPod with the Bose docking system and it has no problem at all.
I always use the iPod AC charger to charge my iPods and I have never had any problems.
The initial cause of the problems in your post is probably that several improper ejection of the iPod. If you do not have a Mac the problem may not be solvable by yourself. -
When I try to open up this program, Pacifist, I receive this error message. Here's a screenshot. http://i.imgur.com/v717w.jpg What does this error message mean and how do I solve it?
It sounds like some of the Unix Executable commands were removed (or the permissions to those were modified) out of the /usr/bin/ folder. You can try opening disk utility and repairing permissions on Macintosh HD or you can reboot your computer and holding down option-r when it comes back up to reinstall Lion again. This will not delete your personal information or applications you have installed but it would be best to back it up to Time Machine before you do. The article on how to do this is here. (http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/) I have had to do this before and it works like a charm. It should fix your issue but grab a cup of coffee because its going to take about 35 - 40 minutes depending on how fast your computer is.

Time Capsule Airport
Hello to all, good day, sorry my english google, but it is the tool I have at the moment. I'm having trouble with my Time Capsule Airport, I made all the settings according to the manual, but there has been a connection problem with my iMac. When I finish my work I turn off the imac and then again when they return to work and care, it can not connect to Time Capsule Airport, making it impossible to remove the files and make back up by Time Machine only works when I turn off and turn on the Airport Time Capsule , but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve? Thank you.
Olá a todos, bom dia, desculpe meu inglês google, mas é a ferramenta que tenho no momento. Estou tendo dificuldades com a minha Airport Time Capsule, fiz todas as configurações de acordo com o manual, mas tem existido um problema de conexão com meu iMac. Quando termino meus trabalhos desligo o imac e depois quando retorno pra trabalhar novamente e ligo, ele não se conecta a Airport Time Capsule, impossibilitando retirar os arquivos e fazer o back-up pelo Time Machine, só funciona quando desligo e ligo a Airport Time Capsule, mas acho que isso pode acabar com o aparelho. O que pode esta acontecendo e como resolver? Obrigado.This is easier to do with pictures perhaps.. since we do not share a common language and machine translation leaves a lot to be desired.
In the airport utility bring up your Time Capsule.
Simply post the screenshots here.
So here is mine.
Click on the Edit button and give us the Internet and Wireless and Network tab..
eg.
Please also make sure you are set to ipv6 in your wireless or ethernet .. whichever is used.. and do tell which.
This is wifi in your computer.
The following are important..
DO not use long names with spaces and non-alphanumeric names.
Use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
eg TC name. TCgen5
Wireless name TCwifi
Use WPA2 Personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
read apple instructions to help with TM and TC.. they did finally admit it has issues in Mavericks.
OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
Mount the TC manually in finder.
AFP://TCgen5.local
When asked for the password .. that is the disk access password and save it in the keychain.
Reset Time Machine

Hi
I dropped my macbook yesterday and it turned itself off. When I tried to turn it back on all I got was a white/gray screen with a flash folder with a ? in the middle of it? What does this mean and how do I get it to stop so I can log onto my laptop?Deev
Normally the question mark on the gray screen means it can't find the operating system. Have you tried booting up from the installation DVD? Do that, and when you come to the screen where it wants to begin a system installation you'll notice in the menubar where it say's utilites. Click on that and choose disk utility. from there choose your disk and try to verify and repair the disk. If you can you may want to also try and new install of the system. I don't know how much critical data you have, but reinstalling is an option. did you purcahse you from an Apple store? If you did you may want them to look at it. Hope this helps.

A file folder with a question mark Appears on my screen when turning on. What does this mean and how do I fix it?
There are four general causes of this issue:
1. The computer's PRAM no longer contains a valid startup disk setting when there aren't any problems with the disk itself. This can be checked for by pressing the Option key and seeing if the drive appears.
2. The internal drive's directory structure has become damaged. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to perform the repair.
3. Critical system files have been deleted. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to reinstall them.
4. The internal drive has died or become unplugged. This is the most likely case if the computer took a sharp impact or there are unusual sounds coming from the hard drive's location.
