[solved]xterm doesn't utilize all screen space in tiling wm's

As can be seen in the screenshot, xterm leaves a bunch of pixels unused at the side and bottom. No other program does this. Do I have to use another *term that uses all the space, or can xterm/ratpoison be fixed in some way?
This is with ratpoison, but if I recall correct it was the same in Musca.

I used to think this way however now I much prefer to set xmonad to honour size hints.
In a dynamic tiling wm, ignoring size hints causes issues when the terms are shuffled around and resized on the display as you open and close windows. You often end up with a partial line of text at the bottom of the terminal that is visible but not cleared with Ctr-L or clear. It looks ugly. I much prefer my terminals to have a gap around the edges rather than seeing this partial text on the bottom edge.

I saturated all the available iPad (3rd. generation) screen space (home screens or desktop space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen, mysteriously disappeared? Where are those missing quick lauch app icons?

Running my 3rd generation iPad on iOS 7.0.4, I saturated all the available iPad screen space (which would be the 15 home screens or desktop worth of space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen space mysteriously disappeared. Where are those missing quick lauch app icons now? The apps are still installed and can be searched/accessed through the finder, but they no longer have a user friendly access. How can I solve this problem?

Hi Hexonxonx, thanks for trying to help, but next time please read the entire discussion, in oder to better comprehend what is being asked. The reason being is that your answer added nothing to what had already been mentioned.
Like I said, I was aware it was possible to access the apps through the finder, but the question revolved around how to recover the quick launch app icons for certain vanished apps.
Wow, kind of a snotty response to someone who was taking their own time to offer help. Whether you thought it was helpful or not, didn't deserve such an unkind retort. Maybe when you realize we all just users here trying to help others like you, who have issues and we don't get anything in return for the countless hours some people here spend offering that assistance, you'll maybe be a little less quick to be critical.
Just sayin.......
Oh and Meg offered the right answer. Put your Apps in Folders, which will create extra space for the apps which have disappeared.

Limit Time Machine backup/sparsebundle so one machine doesn't hog all the time capsule space?

Is this possible?
I have a brand new time capsule, my wife and I will be backing up our computers to it using Time Machine. Is it possible to limit the storage size of the sparsebundles so one of us (probably me) wont hog all the space?
My wife doesn't use her's as much, while my computer is on almost everyday, so I'm affraid my computer will limit the amount of states, or versions, that she can back up before her time machine has to start deleting old files.
I'm trying to avoid a situation where my time machine goes back a year while her's only goes back a few months.
Thanks!

No. That is not how a Time Capsule and Time Machine work. All backups are adding to existing backups.
About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.
To accomplish what you want would mean using just an external backup drive partitioned with volumes for each of you to use, and the use of a different backup utility that overwrites old files rather than saving them as does Time Machine.

I have limited space left on my iphone. How do I send music from my iPhone back to the cloud so it doesn't take up all my space, if I decide I want different music?

I have limited space left on my iphone. How do I send music from my iPhone back to the cloud so it doesn't take up all the space on my phone, if I decide I want different music?

You don't send it back to the cloud since it never left the cloud.
You can delete indovidual songs from the iPod, or if all music is available in your iTunes library on your computer, you can remove the music from your iPhone via the iTunes sync process.

'Pantone Black' (color bridge uncoated / plus series) doesn't 'look on screen' as black at all.

I'm working in Adobe Illustrator CC on a mac.
'Pantone Black' (color bridge uncouted / plus series) doesn't 'look on screen' as black at all. A '100%K' black (cmyk) look perfectly black. The Pantone solid black appears nothing like a 'black' at all on screen. Is there a setting that makes the colors 'look' more like the end result?
Also is there a reason, a lot of the colors in the 'Color Bridge Uncoated - Plus Series' doesn't come up in the Adobe Illustrator 'Color Bridge Uncoated' pallette?
Can anybody help me out?

What does the Pantone Black Uncoated Plus Series look like? I mean, on your screen? Is it brownish? Not sure why Pantone Bridge does not show in Illustrator Bridge. The entire color communications system(s) seemed to be a bit messed up. There seems to be a drift on screen when looking at Pantone anything these days.

[SOLVED] Radeon, black border (doesn't fill entire screen)

Updated yesterday. Now I have a black border of unused screen space along the edges of my monitor. It's an AMD system using the integrated card (785G (RS880, Radeon HD 4200)) and it's connected to a TV. I've tried DVI to HDMI as well as HDMI to HDMI, both with the same result. The KDE settings say that it's displaying 1920x1080@60Hz and so does the TV. I'm using the radeon driver as is, no xorg.conf or anything. I've tried searching but so far I've only found stuff related to overscan with the catalyst driver. I'm a bit of a n00b so please be patient if I ask stupid stuff
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,
got the same prob. I found this:
"It's the new "underscan" code added recently to deal with cases where an HDMI-attached TV has overscan set so users can't see the menus at boot. There's a RANDR mechanism to turn it off" -> http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25129
Try: xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set underscan off
(set Output to used one)

[SOLVED] awesome & urxvt results in some screen flickering

Hi,
i've been using awesome since a few weeks and i noticed a flickering problem when starting urxvt (via mod4+enter).
urxvt starts, disappears, comes back again, disappears and so on.
starting up urxvt (time until i get a usable promt) takes about 1-2 seconds.
However, i don't know how to track the problem down. Maybe it is urxvt's (i think it is), maybe it is awesome's or even ati's fault (using 2.6.32 with open source ati driver).
when i switch between multiple windows (using mod4+n) only urxvt windows are flickering. Switching between gui-apps (ff, dolphin, …) works as expected.
maybe someone has an idea about this …

Wasting screen space in German Lightroom 2

Hello,
I've compared Lightroom 1.3 and 2.0 both in German and it seems that the new German version takes a *lot* more screen space for its right panel in the develop module to show completely. In the normal view it's okay, but in the crop and repair tool views, in its initial width, the right scrollbar isn't even visible! I need to increase the panel width approx. by the half to see it completely. In the crop view, it takes the most space. And I always would need to enlarge it to see the lock aspect ratio button... Then the resizer grip seems to be only a single pixel wide so it's a pain to resize the panel!
This is actually not an acceptable situation. I have a 17" TFT monitor with 1280x1024 resolution, but Lightroom 2.0 just doesn't fit into it. The older 1.3 does very well, so right now, here in Germany, 1.3 is by far the better version to use for most. Unregarded of all the new features you've put into it. Maybe a little bit of testing before the release would have spot the bug at Adobe. Hoping for a better 2.0.1 very soon.

Agreed. It also would have been smart, if they'd allowed longer text to
wrap onto the next line.
I suspect the reason for things like this happening is, that the
translator didn't or couldn't check how the interface was being affected.
By the way, I poked around in the LR localisation files, but couldn't
find those text strings anywhere - sorry.

Issues Missing files & duplicate files and not enough screen space

Hello everyone,
I'm using a 1.67 Ghz 15 in tibook with 1 gig of ram
I had issue yesterday, missing files, I was in the rating/keywords panel scrolling through my images, one was a bit soft so I deleted it using the command delete combo. Somehow all of the images in the project disappeared. They hadn't been moved to the trash, I looked, and looked and looked, I couldn't find them using a search, and it should have been easy, they were the first images that had been imported into Aperture.
So since I had copied the 70 files to my hardrive first I re-imported them. Couldn't see those either.
Deleted the project and re-imported again, worked fine, and I couldn't reproduce the problem.
When I went to export five images, (all the images had been re-named with a sequential suffix, Smith_01, Smith_02, Smith_03...), to my desktop so I could copy to our server, I remembered that I needed to update a caption on one image. (Could that caption box be any smaller?), anyway I exported again, I meant to only export the individual image but exported all five again. Instead of telling me there were duplicate files on the desktop it increased the sequential number of each duplicate file by 1. So now instead of one file of Smith_01, Smith _08, Smith 33, etc, I have the original and the Smith_01 file now has a matching image slugged Smith_02 on the desktop as well, along with all the others that had a match with a suffix one digit higher. And of course back in the project there is a Smith_02 that is different..
If I were to copy different files with the same name to other folders or our archive server one of those images could be easily discarded or copied over by the file with the duplicate name.
And lastly, when importing I tried to rename my files and add a generic caption, I imported the same images a few times, the first time I couldn't scroll down to see the caption box and metadata, the second time I could see the scroll and add the metadata below. The third time I couldn't scroll down. Very Wierd!
And lastly, is there any way to show just the adjustments or just the metadata boxes on the Adjustments & Filters layout? The boxes are so small already I'd like to be able to at least use the whole side of the screen for one box. I'd really like to be able to put them where I want them. The adjustment HUD works this way on a full screen but I want to get rid of the strip of thumbnails in the full screen and just have the HUD and the image, nothing else.
Any insights would be great.
Thanks,
Craig

Hello everyone,
<...>
I had issue yesterday, missing files, I was in the
rating/keywords panel scrolling through my images,
one was a bit soft so I deleted it using the command
delete combo. Somehow all of the images in the
project disappeared. They hadn't been moved to the
trash, I looked, and looked and looked, I couldn't
find them using a search, and it should have been
easy, they were the first images that had been
imported into Aperture.
I think they were in the trash - as far as I know search does not work within the trash itself.
Nope not in the trash, that's the first place I looked, I also found that deleting a project is the fastest way to export the masters. Just pull them out of the trash can
They should have been moved to the trash folder, inside an Aperture directory, and then from there inside of a folder with the name of the project the image was in.
Alternatley (and I'm not sure how this migh thave happened) they may have been marked as "rejected". All views have a default search >>criteria that starts with "unrated or higher" but rejected photos are lower than this and are not seen. By default there is a smart folder at the >>top of your library that shows Unrated pictures, you might check to see if they are there.
I'll double check the shortcut for rejects, this is the only plausible explanation, but it doesn't explain why the second import of images couldn't be found either.
So since I had copied the 70 files to my hardrive
first I re-imported them. Couldn't see those
either.
Deleted the project and re-imported again, worked
fine, and I couldn't reproduce the problem.
Well, I'm sorry to say I have no theories to offer there. Just glad it worked eventually!
When I went to export five images, (all the images
had been re-named with a sequential suffix, Smith_01,
Smith_02, Smith_03...), to my desktop so I could copy
to our server, I remembered that I needed to update a
caption on one image. (Could that caption box be any
smaller?), anyway I exported again, I meant to only
export the individual image but exported all five
again. Instead of telling me there were duplicate
files on the desktop it increased the sequential
number of each duplicate file by 1. So now instead
of one file of Smith_01, Smith _08, Smith 33, etc,
<...>
Yes, Aperure will refuse to overwrite any file ever - and will always add those other numbers if it encounters a file with the same name as the one it is trying to generate!
I agree that this is a good thing, but there should be an alert of some kind if you have a duplicate. The finder certainly tells you if you are trying to copy a duplicate file to the same location. Adding an increment of one to the sequential suffix without an alert is very poor planning. On deadline trying to get files into our system I could have easily overlooked the duplicates and overwritten other files with the same name.
The only way to work around that is either to delete all files from the directory before you export from Aperture, or to export to an empty directory and copy them over yourself.
The work around is easily figured out, but like some other things I shouldn't have to work around it.
<...>
And lastly, is there any way to show just the
adjustments or just the metadata boxes on the
Adjustments & Filters layout? The boxes are so small
already I'd like to be able to at least use the whole
side of the screen for one box. I'd really like to
be able to put them where I want them. The
adjustment HUD works this way on a full screen but I
want to get rid of the strip of thumbnails in the
full screen and just have the HUD and the image,
nothing else.
Well, another option there would be to drag the divider between the metadata and the adjustments all the way up (as much as you can >>anyway, the histogram will still be visible).
That would be wonderful, but I'm on a 15 in ti book and there isn't enough space to do that. The divider show up but you can't move it. Ideally you should be able to just view the metadata or just the adjustments if you so choose. Binding them together is stupid, if I'm making adjustments, I don't care what is happening in the metadata screen and when I'm adding captions and changing metadata I don't need to see the adjustments screen. Give me a metadata template like the IPTC screen in Photomechanic that I can save and apply and put it on the screen where I want it.
Then to see adjustments just use the adjustment HUD - key "H" to bring up or dismiss. It will stay where you put it when you make it go >>away and come back and you can have it whereever you like on the screen unlike the inspector.
I'd love to do that but it can't be done on a 15 in laptop screen.
For maximum space value, you could arrange the Adjustments HUD to exactly overlay the space where the Inspector is - then you can press >>"I" to make the inspector come and go, and "H" for the Adjustments Hud all in the same space.
For maximum space on adjustments I'm using the full screen with the HUD. At least I can then move the HUD where I want it to be, not anchored on the right side.
In general look over the keyboard shortcuts as there are a lot of keys to make panels come up and go away quickly (one key, no modifiers) >>which really helps to maximize use of screen space.
I'm still learning them and I'm sure that will help, but the adjustments panel and the metadata panel have to be changed to make it more usable on a laptop in my opinion. Maybe it's fine on a large monitor, I wouldn't know as I can't load it on my G5 desktop without a hack. And so far I'd rather use Photomechanic for sorting and captioning it's much much faster for newspaper work.

I forgot my restriction password and I can't delete any app. I can't download anything either, I've filled up all the space in my iPad, and I need to update my iPad in order to restore it. But my iPad needs space in order to update to a newer vers. of ios

I forgot my restriction password and I can't delete any app. I can't download anything either, I've filled up all the space in my iPad, and I need to update my iPad in order to restore it. But my iPad needs space in order to update to a newer vers. of ios.. I've also tried to restore to the previous backup, but it yet doesn't work. Please help :c!

I told you, I can't restore iOS. In order to restore my iPad, I need to update it to iOS 7.0.4, but my iPad needs available space to update, but I don't have any. I can't delete anything at all, so yeah.. are there any possible ways to restore my ipad without updating? If not, please state other ways to solve this problem.

C drive seems abnormally large for the deployment (.WIM taking up all the space)

I just started using SCCM 2012 R2. I've gotten everything setup to do my deployment but it turns out I clicked deploy on a .wim file I had and it filled up the C drive. This is a virtual machine and I never intended to store the data on the C:\
drive. But by following a install online it seems that the default DP puts it there. My SCCMContentLib seems to grow uncontrollably and I can't figure out why. At first I started with a 40GB vm. Then moved it up to 60 to give me 20GB
of free space. Next I noticed that my image wasn't getting sent via the client pc because of a error which tracked back to the operating system status being red. This tracked to not enough space on the C:\ when I clicked the error. I noticed
somehow this WIM file took up the 20GB I had given it extra.
My image is for a Dell Optiplex 3020. The .wim file is 9GB in size on the file share. Yet when I right click and check the properties under Operating System Images it shows as 22,083.82MB. Which doesn't seem all that confusing understanding
that this is probably the extracted size?
So no problem I increased the drive size by 40GB again. I then went to the operating system and right clicked and said distribute content. But it didn't seem to turn yellow. So I went to Task Sequences, Distribute content on the task sequence
that is set to push out that image, then went back to the OS and clicked distribute again. This time it went Yellow. I waited and waited then it failed out again.
Now when I check the C:\ drive it has 4GB or so free, and the status is red again with the error not enough space on the C:\ NTFS drive. I have no idea how a 9GB .wim file can turn into 60GB of space eaten up? What am I not understanding about
SCCM. Just using WDS seemed like a much better solution as it didn't require a insane amount of space to push a single image. I understand that SCCM has many other capabilities which is why I moved to it. Yet this is not a acceptable solution
using up 60+GB for a single 10GB wim file to image a few machines.
There must be something wrong here and I am not doing correctly.

To answer the questions thus far. I originally used WDS and the other program which escapes me MDT? I think to create the wim files on the old server. In the file share there is the .wim and a language.ini file which WDS and MDT created when
making those images. I just moved them to the new file share which has plenty of space. This .wim file is a little over 9GB in size on the file share.
I right clicked the OS file and clicked Distribute, I didn't click deploy. I then boot PXE on the computer and it runs the task sequence. I had several images which failed to distribute due to file space. I removed the content by going
to the DP and in the Content tab and clicked on each image and clicked remove. It stated that it would remove the data for those but would not remove any data linked to other deployments I believe.
I deleted the OS as you said and it cleared up 60GB of space. The next issue is I had to delete the task sequence as I could not longer find a place to edit which WIM it used. Not sure if this is standard or if there is a place to edit this after
the fact when we have a issue such as this?
I wanted to next look into moving the software library to my file share if possible. I see I can create a mapped drive and for example make it E:\. I have read that you can use the Config Manager 2012 R2 Tools to move this. However it looks
like it moves MUCH more than just the SCCMSoftwarelib folder. I have read it required or maybe recommended that you keep the software lib and other folders on the base drive with NTFS. Curious if mapping a share and moving all the files to the
file server I created to store the .wim files is recommended here and possible?

Workspace doesn't fit the screen anymore...

Hello.
Since today (and Mac OS X's update I installed this morning, I guess), my Photoshop CS6 workspace doesn't fit the screen of my 12 inch Cintiq (connected to a 2014 Macbook Air). No matter what I do, it keeps it wrong.
Trying to set the photoshop window to the whole Cintiq screen with the "green" Mac OS corner button, this is what I get:
Hitting F won't do the trick, this is what it gets me:
I tried to clear the Photoshop prefs, without success. I checked for updates and found there was a Photoshop update I had not yet installed, and I did install it, to no success. Needless to say, this makes my copy of Photoshop most unusable, which is a really big problem for an illustrator like me. I really wish I can solve this as soon as possible.
Thanks.

Yeah, no results. Still the same.
If I take my main window and move it up by myself, it's just gonna stay there until the next click somewhere, then it gets back to this wrong placement,.

When you said you have no fax machines on your line, that does include computers directly connected to the phone line?
The reason that I ask is a computer with a dial-up modem (a non broadband modem) that can connect to your phone line, can have software that makes the computer act as a fax machine.

Safari show all tabs doesn't work all the time

It is annoying: safari show all tabs doesn't work all the time. The little icon to the right of the "New Tab" area sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. The Shift Command Back-slash, sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. I find no rhyme nor reason for this. I have a MacBook Pro, Mountain Lion, the latest updates. It doesn't matter if I am in Full Screen or not.
I am quite confused regarding this.

Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type of copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, empty the cache more often from your keyboard.
Command + Option + E
