Spotlight Privacy State on Snow Leopard and Leopard dual boot system

I have leopard 10.5.8 running on the internal HD of my iMac, and decided to start fresh with a clean install of Snow Leopard (now 10.6.1) on a firewire drive. The game plan is to slowly add my apps as they are updated and compatability issues are ironed out, and use Super Duper to clone the SL system over to my internal once it's where I want it to be.
The issue I'm having is when I boot between the systems, whatever Spotlight privacy settings I have set on one system is transferred over to the other upon booting into it. For example, I have the SL disk in the privacy list on my Leopard system, so I don't accidentally launch the Snowy versions of Disk Utility and whatnot when using spotlight. When I boot into SL, it remains on the exclude list, so all my spotlight hits are from the Leopard system. I redo my privacy settings on SL to include the SL disk and exclude the leopard and the system re-indexes itself.
But the next time I boot into Leopard, the changes I made while in SL are carried over, and my Leopard Disk now appears in the privacy settings and SL isn't. I redo the privacy settings, wait while it reindexes, and this vicious circle continues every time I boot between systems.
Isn't the spotlight privacy settings supposed to be written to each system's disk? I tried using the app spotless, but same deal..whatever disks I include or exclude from being indexed on one system are automatically written to the other system as well.
Any ideas? Is this a bug, or how it's supposed to work? Thanks in Advance

The privacy settings for a drive are stored on the drive itself in the /.Spotlight-V100/Store-V1/VolumeConfig.plist file.
This is drive specific so if you move a drive between systems, the privacy settings are maintained. There is no practical way to solve the problem unfortunately.
You do not however, have to worry about launching Snow Leopard apps on your Leopard system. You won't be able to, receiving an error similar to "not designed for this architecture".
As an alternative, have a look at BlackTree's Quicksilver application. You could use it instead of Spotlight on one or both of your systems.

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • How can i run snow leopard and leopard in my mac?

    how can i run snow leopard and leopard in my mac?

    First, your Mac model must be able to run Leopard. Second, you would have to partition your hard drive to create a second volume then install Leopard on the new volume using a Leopard installer DVD.

  • I have a macbook and it is a dual boot system, I would like to be able to see the mac side of the system on a larger monitor.  I can hook to a hdmi cable and see the pc side, but not the mac side, any suggestions?

    I have a macbook that I bought second hand.  The mac has a dual boot system with bootcamp on one side and snow leopard on the other.  I would like to be able to hook to a larger hdmi monitor so that in both systems I could see better since on the leopard side the computer has PS4.  I have purchased the dvi to HDMI accessory and purchased the HDMI to DVI cable, and can see fine on the bootcamp side, but nothing on the leopard side.  Could somebody help me with configuring things so that it will see both side? 
    Also on a minor note, I need to purchase a new battery for this item and don't know which one to purchase.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially with the display/monitor issue.
    Thanks Sue
    ps sorry but the operating system is OS X

    When you try to use the Mac side on your external monitor do you get a blank screen or do you see the aurora background?
    It would help to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.

  • ATI display driver lost with Linux and XP dual boot os

    I brought ThinkPad W500 with windows vista. I want to get rid of the hidden boot system reserved partition and downgrade to windows xp and install OpenSuse os. Following some sourses found on the web, I first set the bios sata ahci mode to compatable mode. Then install windows xp and update the sata driver. Restart and reset the bios sata back to ahci mode. It works fine with windows xp and I install back all driver. Finally I install OpenSuse and create dual boot with Grub. 
    But a serious problem come up with me. Everytime after restart from the linux os and back to windows xp, xp doesn't regonize the ATI display divice and tell me no driver installed with low screen resolution. And I have to restart the machine and boot direct into xp for the second time and the problem gone. But it is so annoying of doing this everytime. Anyone can help? Many thanks.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi stanleyimko,
    I don't have an answer, just a couple of questions:
    Does your W500 have switchable graphics?  If so, you may have to turn off "let the OS detect" or permanently select one or the other in BIOS.  XP isn't switchable aware, so I don't know why that would make a difference.
    Do you see the problem on cold (re) boot to XP, or only on warm reboot from Linux to XP?
    Seems like something is leaving your BIOS in an odd state (I guess that's obvious) and maybe a cold reboot would sort it.

  • What do i need to do to share TB and Lightning files between W7 and Ubuntu 14.04 on a dual boot system?

    I recently installed Ubuntu 14.04 alongside W7. Since I'm not comfortable dropping Windows completely yet, I want my W7 Thunderbird and my Ubuntu TB to have access to the same data file holding current messages, so I don't have to get out of one to use TB on the other. I rely on Lightning and also want my reminders to be consistent from either OS. I have a separate NTFS data partition which, I understand, can be used to house the profile directory (though I've not seen that as a solution for Lightning).
    In trying to set it up, I've run into questions that I can't find a good answer for -- want sources that address the problem and are recent. I'm pretty patient, and I can stumble through a lot of things (like learningn about partitions). But I'm not a programmer, and this start-stop-sort-through-dozens-of-old-incomplete-and-irrelevant-answers process is frustrating. (Nor do I lift the hood and tune my own car engine.) I also recognize that some things I want to do aren't necessarily common, so they're not at the top of anyone's "tell the world how to do this" list.
    1. My profiles directory has 6 *.default files. I assume the current one is the most recent. Do I need the older ones? How did I get them, since I've never knowingly created a new one? I'm the only user of my machine and thus the only user for TB.
    2. I saw the following before setting up the dual boot system, so it's likely not related -- but if someone who knows TB well can comment I'll appreciate it: when I view All folders, I see 58(!) folders with names nstmp-##. The contents overlap with normally-named folders, but the sets of messages are not identical. Do these indicate a problem and/or should I change something? Does this have to do with compacting or archiving, neither of which I do? Never saw the need, and never saw an article saying that they're important. I just want to use mail and reminders. And BTW I've been using TB/Lightning for years and am Very happy with them, so I want to keep using them.
    3. Is there a way to set up Lightning to hit the same data file(s) on my data partition? Or somewhere? Where are Lightning's files? I remember one source mentioned linking to "storage.sdb", but (1) I can't find the reference again, and (2) links to some of my files don't always work. Broken links aren't Mozilla's problem, but someone might know how to geet around the problem for the sake of Lightning. Also, storage.sdb and calendar* directories exist inside my *.default profile directory -- so why would I need to link anything? Are these not where calendar data is stored? If not, where?
    I'd rather understand the reasons behind recommended procedures ("do A because Y is how Lightning/TB works" -- vs "do A, then B, then C...and it will/should(!) work."). But if you can point me to a clear procedure that will get me where I want to go, that will be enough.
    Last, the following two URLs looked like they would help but don't -- so you don't need to point me to them again:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sharing_a_profile_between_Windows_and_Linux -- this is only 2 years old but:
    (1) it only says that "settings" specify file locations, without saying which settings. Stumbling around, I found "Local directories" under Server Settings. For more detail the page refers to an article that's 10 years old. Neither source says which subdirectory under *.default should be the target. The older one references ".../mail", but when I enter that value in Local Directories under Ubuntu, nothing shows up. When I went down one more level to "/Local Folders", the folders appear and the new-message counts seem(!) ok. But I also got a couple "folder missing...will adjust filters" messages. I never got those under Windows. So am I good to go, or am I missing messages?
    (2) The above page only says that Lightning is a "potential problem", with no suggestion of a solution or link to a discussion. Searching results in many hits, but I haven't found anything helpful.
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1624973 -- this looked promising, but the comments are dated 2009-2010, deal with ubuntu 10 and XP, and don't seem to address my problem -- unless I'm not savvy enough to recognize it, which is entirely possible.
    Thanks for any insights.

    Lightning is a problem for you because it hooks into Thunderbird at a low level and you need a version compiled for the platform Thunderbird is running on. So you can't do the preferred solution, which is to put your whole profile in a shared folder and have both instances of Thunderbird reference the same profile. (Ditto for Enigmail). Lightning may become an integral part of Thunderbird in an upcoming release, at which point this limitation due to Lightning should disappear.
    And if you can't use a shared profile, you can't set your Lightning, or your Address Book, to share a common set of files. Put another way, the linkage from Thunderbird to its address book files and calendar data is hard-coded, and not exposed where we can adjust it. :-(
    The halfway house is to place your mail stores in a shared place, and use the Local Directory setting in each account's settings to connect to it. They don't need to be in the profile; what's more important in your case is that they are in a folder accessible to both operating systems.
    Look in your profile; everything under Mail and ImapMail needs to be moved out to a shared folder. Note the entries in Thunderbird under Local Directory before you do this, and reconstruct those pathnames in Thunderbird, but adjusted to suit their new locations.
    (You can see here that you need to make many adjustments, one per account, in each instance of Thunderbird, so it's a high-maintenance solution and this is why we don't recommend it when the alternative, moving the whole profile, is possible.)
    I share address books and calendars between Thunderbirds on various computers (and my phone and tablet) by syncing to something in the cloud; Google Contacts and Google Calendar are my choices, using gContactSync and CalDav.
    Having made the break myself some years ago, I'd recommend you break away from Windows. ;-)

  • OS X and Arch dual-boot on MBP - bootloader error

    I have a Macbook Pro 9,2, and I dual-boot OS X and Arch. My main Arch partition is encrypted with an LVM on LUKS setup, and my main OS X partition is encrypted with Firevault 2. I run the vanilla Arch kernel, and I use xfce as my DE. I use refind as my boot manager, and grub as the bootloader for the Arch partition. This setup has worked flawlessly for several months. I update my Arch system once per week, and last Sunday was a large update since xfce got a large overhaul (in terms of program and config files). However, since the update I cannot boot into OS X (I am posting this here instead of an OS X forum since no change occurred to the OS X system so the problem must be with a change to my Arch system).
    When I attempt to boot into OS X, I am asked for my password to decrypt the partition, but then I get the following error message:
    efiboot loaded from device: Acpi (PNP0A03,0)/Pci(1F12)/SATA(0,0)/HD(Part3.Sig698A

    .............Read error 0x6
    Error loading kernel cache (0x6)
    Error: Aborted returned from boot.efi
    *Hit any key to continue*
    When I hit a key, I get taken back to the refind menu. If I choose OS X again, I get the same error. This cycle can be repeated ad nauseam. Booting into my Arch partition, on the other hand, works just fine, with one hiccup. While usability does not seem to be reduced, after I input my password to decrypt the Arch partition, and before I see the tty1 login, I (since Sunday) occasionally get the following error message that I have never had before:
    19.636262] [drm:crypt_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared pch fifo underrun on pch transcoder
    19.636264] [drm:crypt_serr_int_handler] *ERROR* PCH transcoder A FIFO underrun

    19.332176] ata1.00: status: { DRDY }
    The "READ FPDMA QUEUED" line and those below it repeat a few time with different numbers following "cmd" and "res," but then after a few moments the messages clear off the screen and I arrive at my tty1 login screen and from there everything in Arch (including my now-upgraded DE) works normally. This error does not occur during all boots, but I cannot discern any pattern behind when I see it and when I do not. The OS X error and failure to boot occurs every time I try to boot into OS X.
    I have learned a lot as an Arch user, but this problem is beyond me. Google has not been particularly friendly, understandably so given the peculiarity of the problem and my setup. I have not yet tried undoing the update I did on Sunday because (a) it would be a pain since there were >30 packages that were upgraded, and (b) I have no evidence that the upgrade was actually causative of this issue, though I may eventually attempt the downgrade out of desperation if I cannot find a solution. Note that the update I keep referencing did not including a kernel update.
    I appreciate any advice or insight that you can offer.

    I don't have much in the way of a solution for your problem, but to start with, what were the  > 30 packages? In particular, was grub/refind updated (or anything else that would likely touch your efi partition? I know from my own messing with refind, that you can potentially 'damage' your partition layout with certain commands which maybe causing osx not to boot...
    Then again, the errors may have nothing to do with your arch installation and maybe indicative of a different problem all together. Normal procedure is at this point is to backup your complete disk (clone/mirror it, read up on how to do that especially with regards to the encryption systems used), and try to diagnose for any problems the mbp maybe having.
    You could use an apple rescue cd (that may no longer be available with newer mbp , I have no idea..) or maybe use a different harddisk and install osx there and see if you can get everything running 'normally' thus ruling out any funky errors with the hw.  check apple's recovery options if need be.
    I guess you'll just have to fiddle about a bit and try to more closely determine what the actual problem is. and again, backup your stuff!

  • Setting up a dual boot system with OS 9 and OS 10

    I am currently running OS 9.2 on the G4 and want to run OS 10.4 as a dual boot system. Can I go as far as 10.4 with dual boot? Is there any more to it than partitioning the system drive in two and installing the two OS's on the two partitions?

    Hi, Matt -
    Is there any more to it than partitioning the system drive in two and installing the two OS's on the two partitions?
    No.
    As Dave Hamilton said, if using OSX's Disk Utility to do the partitioning, be sure you select the option to install OS 9 drivers. If that option is not selected, then OS 9 will not be able to mount the volume(s), nor use one for booting.
    Reminder - partitioning a drive requires that it be re-initialized. This will erase everything on the drive, so be sure you have backed up anything you do not want to lose.
    And, be sure to select Mac OS Extended as the format for all partitions. That is the only format which can be used by both OS 9 and OSX for booting.
    <hr>
    Although many folk do partition a drive (or use two separate drives - your DA model is pre-equipped to accept a second internal drive), you do not need to do that in order to install OSX.
    OSX should install smoothly onto the same drive where OS 9 is located. There is no conflict between the two - machines which originally came with both OS 9 and OSX pre-installed had both installed on an unpartitioned drive.
    However, there are distinct advantages to having OS 9 and OSX on separate volumes or drives -
    • Maintenance and/or repair of each OS and its files is easier
    • Re-installation of either OS, should that ever be necessary, is easier
    • Startup Manager can be used

  • Uninstall Linux and Grub dual boot from Win7 HP dm4..

    uninstall Linux and Grub dual boot from Win7 HP dm4. I only have recovery disks. I just want to do a Startup Repair not a full system recovery. 
    When I reboot with the recovery disk there is no choice for Startup Repair.
    thank you for any help.
    Blue Jacket

    Hello bluecape.  I understand you'd like to uninstall Grub/Linux.  Is your recovery disc a Windows Recovery disc or the HP System Recovery disc?  
    You will need to begin by fixing the "Master Boot Record."  This is where Grub is installed and what allows you to select your operating system.   If you have a HP System Recovery disc the steps may be different--these steps are specifically for a Windows Recovery Disc.  Try the following.
    Boot the notebook with your Recovery Disc.  
    Select "Repair your Computer."
    Select your Windows version once the dialog box populates.
    Choose "Command Prompt" as your Recovery Tool.
    From the command prompt type "bootrec /FixMbr" and press Enter.
    Once this is finished type "exit" and press Enter.
    Take the disc out and reboot the PC.  It should boot straight into Windows without a boot loader prompting you.
    The Linux files and partitions are still there but you can now remove those partitions from Windows.  Simply format the partitions to "uninstall" Linux.
    I hope this is helpful.  If you have further questions just let me know.  Have a great day!

  • Can I share files between dual-boot Snow Leopard and Leopard partitions?

    Apparently one of the cool new features of Snow Leopard is its file system compression. That has me wondering though, if I want to have a single drive with two partitions and install Snow Leopard on one partition and Leopard one the other will I be able to mount the SL partition from Leopard and read/edit files without causing problems?
    It seems like that would not be possible but I thought I'd throw it out here to see if anyone has tried.

    As far as I can tell, Apple has applied compression to most of the system executable files in Snow Leopard. However they do not appear to apply it to data files for any applications that I have looked at.
    Apples documentation for ditto (go to terminal and type "man ditto" at the prompt, without the quotes) states:
    --hfsCompression
    When copying files or extracting content from an archive, if the destination is an HFS+
    volume that supports compression, all the content will be compressed if appropriate. >This
    is only supported on Mac OS X 10.6 or later, and is only intended to be used in >installa-tion installation
    tion and backup scenarios that involve system files. Since files using HFS+ compression
    are not readable on versions of Mac OS X earlier than 10.6, this flag should not be >used
    when dealing with non-system files or other user-generated content.

  • Dual Boot Snow Leopard and Leopard

    Hi All
    i am looking to Dual boot my Intel iMac with Leopard (10.5.8) + Snow Leopard (10.6) for testing purposes.
    How do i go about doing this?
    I have the Leopard install disc
    i do not have Snow leopard yet and the only version i have seen is an update disc you can buy from apple for about £25 is this ok to use or will i need a copy of the full version?
    if i need a copy of the full version where can i find it?
    my current hdd setup is:
    1 partician very large for data about 255GB
    + another 40GB Partician with Mac OS X
    I assume i will need to create another partician about 20GB and call it Snow leopard and use the leopard disc to install onto the new partician then upgrade the newly installed leopard partician with the new snow leopard disc??
    Thanks in advance
    Regards Sam

    Apple has managed to fool a lot of folks with their pricing. If you paid the US$129.00 to upgrade your Mac from Tiger to Leopard, then you qualify for the US$29.00 upgrade from Leo to Snow Leopard. If you did not upgrade from Tiger to Leo, you should buy the US$179.00 box set, which includes Snow Leo, iLife '09 & iWork.
    All of this is based on honesty and ethics. The Leo disks are the same. The Leo disk in the upgrade does not look for evidence of Leo, at least not to install. You can erase and install with the Leo disk, or install on a virgin HDD that has never seen Mac OS X.
    We create dualboot systems when we seed test Mac OS X all the time. SuperDuper will make Sandbox partition and install just Mac OS X and Apple apps. It leaves 3rd party apps, your data and user accounts and settings on your main Mac OS X installation. Then we lay the new version of Mac OS X over the Sandbox and boot into it. So we have the current Gold Master of Mac OS X and the new version that we are testing, and we can boot into either and they both share our data and accounts.
    That may be more tricky when you are using different versions of Mac OS X, as opposed to different updates of the same version. For example, Leo and Snow Leo have different versions of many Mac apps. I do not know how they might handle your stored data if they handled the creation of music or photo libraries differently.

  • Using iCloud mail in Snow Leopard - AND restoring old mail system

    I use Snow Leopard and cannot upgrade to Lion since my MacBook Pro is too old.
    Apple discontinued my traditional Mail service last week and said it is now transferred to iCloud.
    1. Is there any way I can get my traditional Mail service restored since I like it better than the "improved?" iCloud-based mail service.
    2. What I don't like about the new iCloud-based mail service is...
    a. Sent mail does not always appear in my Sent folder.
    b. When wanting to file a recent mail message away, I have to scroll thru all the folders AND many, many sub-folders. The system does not let me hide the sub-folders so I don't have to scroll so long.
    c. It seems as if the iCloud mail speed is much slower than the old non-iCloud mail service.
    d. It is very hard to make to Contacts for ease in sending mail
    3. IF there is no way to get my traditional mail service restored, is there a way to get the "classic" look if I am forced to use the iCloud mail system?
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

  • What's the difference between Snow Leopard and Leopard?

    I really don't see a reason in buying Snow Leopard if all it does is make my mac faster by 2 seconds at everything.

    You can do what I've been doing for the past few years. Run the old version until I have a need to get a new system, then it comes with the newer OS. If I find I like the newer OS on the new hardware, I may upgrade the previous hardware.
    For me at least I've got a PowerMac G5 (running Tiger), a MacBook (started on Tiger, went to Leopard), a Mac mini (running Leopard and was the trigger for upgrading the MacBook), and now I have an iMac/i7 (Snow Leopard and thinking of upgrading everyone by 1 version).
    There are lots of little improvments in Snow Leopard (I'm starting to notice some of them myself), but if you either do not need them, or do not wish to disrupt your current environment, then stay with your current Mac OS X version.
