The command line 'route' command is broken - what alternatives are there?

The 'route' command appears to be broken in Mavericks ( now also in 10.9.4 ). It does update that tables, so netstat -r makes it seem that it has worked. However, browsers, pings and trace routes all give errors such as 'out of memory'.
So, what can I do to set up working alternatives to the standard routing?
There certainly is some routing capability, and the ability to change it - if you use the OS/X server and set up a VPN, you can set up routing there. So it should be possible to access it through the command line somehow.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
I really thought that this would be easy, but it's turned into quite a headache.

This isn't a great fix but it's helped us out. We created an autoit script to edit the firefox.js file found in program files\mozilla firefox\default\pref. It searches for the line "pref("app.update.auto", true);" and changes it to "pref("app.update.auto", false);". It's a pain but it's the best we could come up with.
Note: We updated to 3.6.14 and even with the setting above FF still did an auto update to 3.6.15.

  • What is happening in the most recent keynote when I click on a slide and it pulses (larger-smaller)  Two of my slides have disappeared in the navigator although if I play through them they are there.

    What is happening in the most recent keynote when I click on a slide and it pulses (larger-smaller)  Two of my slides have disappeared in the navigator although if I play through them they are there and the slides have their orignal number--there are just white spaces where the slide should be and I can only get to the slide by clicking through from the prior slide.  How do I get the sldies back into the navigator so I can see them.  Oddly, they are show up just find on the light table. 

    Try removing any transitions or builds on these slides, or delete the slides then recreate them as fresh slides.
    There are many playback anomalies in Keynote 6 which Apple have said they will be  sorting out next year.

    When exporting to a DVD from Final Cut Pro X, what settings are there to make sure you making the highest quality DVD possible?

    There have been a lot of recent reports of difficulties sharing to DVD, but haven't been hearing about unreadable disks. Posibly there was an encoding error. Or it could have been bad media (blank disk).
    Does it play in your Mac?
    What brand of disks are you using?

  • What benefits are there to joining a Windows domain?

    My company has one mac user with a Macbook Air, we have a Windows 2008 r2 domain.
    I'm wondering if it is worth joining him to the domain, what benefits are there for a mac user?
    We use Exchange 2007 and change our passwords every 90 days.
    One concern is when the user is out of the office the cached password can become out of sync with the domain passowrd.
    This is an anoyance and can be confusing.
    Any advice would be much appriciated.
    Thanks.

    Greetings.
    I am a 1 of 2 Mac users in a company that otherwise is using Windoz. I do not join the domain though, because I really see no reason to. I can get to the printers, to the web, to the Exchange and to the SharePoint. Though mostly I need SVN and cloud services anyway.
    Thus no real reason. Unless there is some specific stuff that is setup on the network that is only available to windows machines authenticated with a certificate and joined to the windows domain, like for instance a split tunnel VPN or something along those lines, there is really no need to be "on the domain" connected to the LAN works just fine if not better.
    HOWEVER
    There is that annoying bit about the passwords.
    Some sysadmins like to setup password expiration, thus forcing us mortals to rotate three (almost identical) passwords every three months. In this case you just need to setup a reminder on your calendar that prompts you a week in advance to change your password.
    How to change your password? You have options:
    OPTION 1
    Now. If your Mac has OS pre Lion (no higher then 10.6) then you have old samba installed by default and that comes with "smbpasswd" command. To change the password just open the mighty mac terminal and type:
    smbpasswd -r YOUR_WINDOWS_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER_IP -U username
    Then the output will be something like this:
    Old SMB password: ********
    New SMB password: *********
    Retype new SMB password: *********
    Password changed for user username
    Of cause replace the YOUR_WINDOWS_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER_IP with the IP of your domain controller. Do not know your domain controller IP? run Google "net lookup master" command. I think older macs have it. (not sure)
    if you are running Lion, you do not have smbpasswd command. I think Apple either wrote their implimentation of samba or just use some stripped down wersion of it, not sure. It has to do with some dreary and borring licensing thing.
    You can either install samba yourself form sources... Thus if you are brave and adventurous here is a walk through http://forums.sonos.com/showthread.php?t=24022 or you can use optopn two:
    OPTION 2
    If your company has not gone to the cloud hosting and still use the old-school home grown Exchange hosted in the broom closet, you might have a web version of the M$ Exchange running. The URLs usually something like: https://owa.yourcompanyname.com. If you have that then the sysadmins may have the password change feature enabled there. Login to your web interface for Outlook (OWA), In the top right corner choose the "Change Password" feature and use it.
    If this is not an option because either your sysadmin is not running OWA or the password change feature is not enabled you have still have options.
    OPTION 3:
    If you are working for a company that loves Windows and their products you might have an M$ Office installed on your Mac. Thus you might have Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) utility. If not you can download it here: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/remote-desktop-client. Then remote desktop to a machine in your office and you will get to it's login screen where you can change the windows domain password. (This requires a machine to which you can remote desktop)
    OPTION 4:
    Walk up to any Windowz box that no one is using, CTRL + ALT + DEL one time and this will give you the login screen, you can change password form there.
    OPTION 5:
    Ask your sysadmin to setup your password to never expire, or add the policy for your user so that you can change it in OWA (see option 2)

  • The "Search" function box doesn't find things that are there! Why?!

    The "Search" function box doesn't find things that are there! Why? Eg: It doesnt show all my Sent and Received emails, but it will find an email that I half wrote and deleted. Unsure why or how to explain more fully.
    I also don't understand if I type in "James email" or "J" into the search box and all the J / James stuff appears but it doesn't show the emails I know have been sent and I know are somewhere because I rang "James" up to check, but the search box shows random thing I am NOT looking for, even if I type in fully what I am looking for and test it by typing in full titles of things.
    It also doesn't store all my sent emails in "Sent" box. Confused! I'm not sure if the "Search" box just isn't up to the job or if it is broken / i'm doing something wrong? Maybe the email address I use isn't set up properly?

    This can happen sometimes if the cache is not cleared correctly when items are not deleted from your device.
    The only solution to this is to do a restore to clean out the cache file.

    [WIFM ] What benefits are there to be had,my current E-mail address seems to meet my current needs

    There is no advantage.
    Apple renamed their service from MobileMe to iCloud, so it is logical to change the email address to match.
    You can ignore the new address if it is not required, your previous @me email will continue to function.

  • What solutions are there for Adobe Cloud subscribers/designers who are using/have been using Adobe s

    What solutions are there for Adobe Cloud subscribers/designers who are using/have been using Adobe software but have run into system requirement inadequacies etc. . . Basically, I have a new mac and CS6 runs fine. But my old macbook can only run CS5.5. Because I'm a subscriber my Adobe CS5.5  updated automatically. What happens when one day a year or two from now (or sooner) my MAC won't support the latest version of my CS subscription? Is there a way for cloud subscribers to subscribe to a legacy or an older version of CS?

    Hi Wildeboer420,
    Its my understanding that previous versions will still be acessible for users going forward, I copied the following from the FAQ
    I am a Creative Cloud member using the CS6 applications included in my membership. Will I lose access to CS6 when CS7 becomes available in Creative Cloud?
    No, if you have downloaded and installed the CS6 versions of the applications, you will continue to have access to them without interruption as long as your membership remains active. When the CS7 versions become available, you will have up to a year to download and install them and they will run on your machine along with CS6 versions.
    Hope that helps,
    -Dave

  • Can I know what deffence are there in between "PowerPivot" and "Power Pivot" ?

    Can I know what deffence are there in between "PowerPivot" and "Power Pivot" ?
    I want to use collect one.
    I found both "PowerPivot" and "Power Pivot" in Microsoft Web Site.
    ex. http://office.microsoft.com/ja-jp/excel-help/HA102893837.aspx

    Thank you Darren.
    Yes, I think "Power Pivot" correct now.
    But I don't found any official annouce "PowerPivot" to "Power Pivot" in Microsoft.
    and There are "PowerPivot" in Microsoft Japan's documents.
    and My friends are using "PowerPivot" in their books that published at Apr/2014.
    I am looking forward official annouce.
    I want to use official word.

    D.p.middleton the Adobe Application Manager has been available for quite some time.  It not only allows Creative Cloud users to install their applications but also downloads and applies applicable updates.  In addition it is also responsible for the licensing and managing your agreement to the terms and conditions of the EULA.
    2. this could be due to you selecting a trial subscription to the Creative Cloud?  If you go to one of the Adobe Creative products and select Help>Updates it will launch the update portion of the Adobe Application Manager which I believe is the portion you are looking for?
    #3 I believe this was already mostly covered in the answer to #2.
    #4 the Adobe Application Manager also receives periodic updates which affects both perpetual and Creative Cloud subscription users.
    I hope this provides you many of the answers you are looking for?  If not please feel free to respond back with any additional inquiries which you have.  Also if you are experiencing any difficulties with the update process please post this as well.  It may not be necessary to have a full understanding of the inner workings of the Adobe Application Manager to help you resolve your difficulties.

  • Can you execute a class file without invoking the command line java command

    I am running java on a Windows XP equipped machine, and I am wondering if it is possible to execute a class file by double clicking the file icon, or can it only be done via command line. So far I have been unsuccessful in my attempts - I tried associating the class file with the java executable in my JRE directory, but that didn't work.
    Many thanks,
    -Stile

    nope, can't be done, by design... microsoft recognised java as threat to the empire very early on in the peace.... but you can write a batch file to execute myprogram.class called myprogram.bat and stick it in your PATH.

  • Executing multiple command lines in command prompt (windows)

    Hi,
    I am currrently using the command prompt in the windows to try to send a command to the microcontroller that is connected through TCP connection.
    I am able to use the normal cmd.exe to send the command but am unable to send all the command successfully using labview. 
    The Vi. that I am using the the system exec.vi found in labview connectivity section. 
    Basically what I want to send is "telnet A1" in the cmd.exe to establish connection to the microcontroller, followed by "FOR A1 100 GO" which will be intepreted by the microcontroller to make the necessary motion. But currently, the problem is that I can only establish connection using the system exec.vi but am unable to send the second part of the message "FOR A1 100 GO". 
    My command line i tried typing is cme.exe /K telnet A1 & FOR A1 100 GO. it seems that labview is only able to execute the first command part. Is there any other alternatives? 
    Thanks everyone for your help. 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the help, the picture shows 1 of the error which state Error 56, the error occurs occasionally whenever I have used the command prompt to send a message to the microcontroller.
    Alternatively, there are times when no errors occur but my microcontroller does not move as well. It does move if I were to send the command through the cmd prompt.
    And I have attached a picture of my program as well. I am currently using Labview 2010 32bit. Thanks.
