Volume password

My volume password is lost and I do not know how to re set it. I am listening to a very low volume. Do you have to have a password for the voulume and how do I get rid of it????????? Please help I can't hear.

Restore your iPod and put it back to default settings, this will remove the lock and password you put in: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • Why can't I access TinyUDF volumes in OS X?

    I have a few DVD-RWs, recorded in a standalone DVD video recorder, that utilise the TinyUDF format. These discs will mount in OS X, but they are not recognised as DVD-Video. I get a little folder icon appear titled "TinyUDF Storage Volume", and when I open it, there's nothing inside. No Video_TS folder, nothing. I can't do anything at all with these discs in OS X, beyond erase them using Disk Utility.
    If I reboot into Windows XP, though, everything's fine. The discs are immediately recognised as DVD-Video and they play as normal. I can also get at the Video_TS folder.
    Is there a driver or anything that allows OS X to recognise DVDs in TinyUDF format? The workaround is to use Windows to copy the Video_TS folder to the hard drive so that I can then reboot into OS X and access it that way, but it seems crazy that I should have to do this given how video-friendly OS X usually is.

    Can OSX read the TinyUDF Filesystem? YES
    Do DVDs mastered with devices that write TinyUDF have a VIDEO_TS directory? YES
    Why can't I see the mounted volume when I insert the disk? BECAUSE APPLE WAS CLUELESS WHEN THEY IMPLEMENTED AUTOFS SUPPORT FOR THE TINYUDF FILESYSTEM
    Is there a workaround that doesn't risk damaging OSX? YES
    Explanation:
    When you insert optical media in the Mac, it automounts it under /Volumes/[something]. When you insert a TinyUDF DVD, it automounts it as root without read permissions, e.g:
    d--------- 4 root wheel 132 Jul 6 16:49 StorageLabs TinyUDF Volume
    So to get at the data, the easiest way is to use "terminal" and copy the data to your desktop. First, launch "Utilities / terminal". Then type "mount" to show what all your active mounts are, e.g:
    $ mount
    /dev/disk2 on /Volumes/StorageLabs TinyUDF Volume (udf, local, nodev, nosuid, read-only, noowners)
    You'll note that the mount point is "/Volumes/StorageLabs\ TinyUDF\ Volume" (note where I've placed the backslashes in the above example. You'll need them if the volume name has spaces in it. Translation: put a backslash before a "space" character... it is important).
    Next, get a directory listing of the TinyUDF volume to show whether whatever wrote it thought it was writing a DVD. We'll use the "sudo ls -l" command:
    Mac:~ zaphod$ sudo ls -l /Volumes/StorageLabs\ TinyUDF\ Volume/
    Password:<enter your root/admin password>
    It should return something like:
    total 8
    d--------- 2 root wheel 508 Jul 6 16:49 VIDEO_TS
    dr-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 92 Jul 6 16:49 ZTEMP
    Next, we're going to use "sudo cp -R" to copy the VIDEO_TS directory to our desktop (note, it's going to still be owned by "root" meaning we can't get at it, but we'll tackle that in the step that follows this one). Note, again, the backslashes if needed:
    Mac:~ zaphod$ sudo cp -R /Volumes/StorageLabs\ TinyUDF\ Volume/VIDEO_TS ~/Desktop
    After you type this, you'll notice a VIDEO_TS folder on your desktop. This command instructs OSX to copy "recursively" the VIDEO_TS folder to your desktop.
    May as well go grab a can of Jolt and some BBQ ribs and enjoy. If you have a full-length movie, the cp can take a while. By the way, make sure you have enough space on your hard drive. Oh, too late?
    After it has copied, you'll notice a "VIDEO_TS" folder on your desktop, but if you click on it, you'll be told you don't have sufficient access privileges. The following command fixes that:
    sudo chmod -R 777 ~/Desktop/VIDEO_TS/
    WHEN YOU DO THIS COMMAND, DOUBLE CHECK IT. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE NO SPACES IN THE PATH (i.e. everything after the "~") AND END IT WITH A "/".
    Sub-rant: [Look, the next 10 posts are going to be from fellow Unix geeks who want to debate this point. If you're a Unix geek, you do it the way you want to. I'm trying to show folks how to do it safely without chmod'ing things they don't want to chmod. The 'chmod' command (and other commands) can be very dangerous, and Unix will happily let you destroy your machine without complaining. So always be careful and double-check your sh commands before you hit that "enter" key.]
    After you do this command, you'll notice that you have access to the folder. You can now use [insert favorite DVD/media editor] to [do whatever you want to do to it].

  • How do i maintain a network connection between 2 computers

    From time to time I can share my network connection between my iMac and my MacBook Air but frequently the connection is lost. How do I reconnect once the connection is lost?
    Is the only choice to restart each computer?
    Is it necessary that both computers remain active (not go into sleep mode)?
    Any help?

    If you are really sure that you want to map a network drive using Labview then the easiest way to achieve it is probably to use the System Exec.vi.
    Use the NET USE command
    e.g.
    NET USE K: \\server\sharename password /USER:mydomain\username
    Command syntax
    "NET USE
    [devicename | *] [\\computername\sharename[\volume] [password | *]]
            [/USER:[domainname\]username]
            [/USER:[dotted domain name\]username]
            [/USER:[username@dotted domain name]
            [/SMARTCARD]
            [/SAVECRED]
            [[/DELETE] | [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]]
    NET USE {devicename | *} [password | *] /HOME
    NET USE [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]"
    Using this command you can then map a network drive using a username and password of your choice to map a drive as you require.
    Note also that the user profile used to access the share can be an alternate to the local account (I am thinking domain / cross domain usage here) which is also very handy as you can use, for example, an increased security level for your LabVIEW accessing account!
    There is a Microsoft knowledgebase article on the subject here:-
    http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308582
    The information also pertains to previous operating systems i.e. NT4, 2000 and XP.

  • Proposal: User Autologin to X11 via LUKS Key

    I'm running several Linux Desktop Systems with Full Drive Encryption. cryptsetup LUKS. The main LVM group, incl. the root volume, gets opened from inside the initrd. I think many of you will know this.
    And Linux is a multiuser Operating System, so there are several users all with their own LUKS Key. They first enter their key and then login to the System with different Usernames and Passwords. So why not login the user to the graphical UI via those different LUKS keys? They are already known when the system asks for username/password.
    I do so. If I enter my LUKS passphrase at bootup, I get automatically logged in to my window manager. If my wife enters her LUKS passphrase, she gets logged in to hers.
    rough draft: The key entered for cryptsetup inside the initrd (early boot) gets hashed and saved inside the memory. Later on in the boot process, the Desktop Manager startscript compares this hash to a list of hashes of different users and automatically logs in the one with the matching hash.
    I attached the files I edited in my Debian 7 with gdm3, Arch Linux with vt-Login and Ubuntu 12.04 with lightdm.
    For Arch it is f*cksystemd.c compiled and installed to /usr/local/bin/, this is used to get the hash from initrd to later userland, simply by adding it to the process stack and reading it later on via the "ps"-tool. That's crude, yes, but I didn't find a smarter way... (if you know one, tell me!)
    Other files needed: hooks/encrypt and install/encrypt  -> /usr/share/initramfs-tools/, loginuser.sh -> /usr/local/bin.
    And my [email protected] seems a little bit outdated, someone has to translate it to the actual "automatic login to virtual console"
    This is not a howto for end users, for now. No detailed install instructions. Just a proof of concept for discussion. If anyone is interested, please tell me. For me it works.
    The name and many other things are subject for debate. I'm pretty sure there are smarter ways on the one hand for the hash transfer and on the other hand for autologon via Desktop Manager (I modify a symlinks to the DM-config every time (gdm3/lightdm)). Btw: The name f*cksystemd of the hash-transfer-binary accrued while trying to let systemd pass some environment variables from initrd to a boot script. Which doesn't work because systemd deletes the whole environment and this is not configurable. So I thought like Linus to NVidia: f*ck you, systemd! There should be some configuration option to whitelist environment parameters for single boot scripts and maybe delete them after running those scripts.
    And because I cannot add Files to the Forums here, I uploaded the scripts there: http://limelinx.com/dejfq

    the correct 1 is unlocked.
    Adding the username to the kernel boot parameter would mean a script could just read /proc/cmdline to find out which encrypted volume password to prompt for. i.e. duplicating the entries in (e.g.) syslinux.cfg for each user

  • Can Mountain Lion OSX read the TinyUDF Filesystem?

    In an Apple Forum post from 8 years ago a member instructed us to use Terminal to identify the video file on the TinyUDF Filesystem DVD-R, extract the file, and give access to the file on our desktop. I have tried unsuccessfully to do this in Mountain Lion. My skills in Terminal are at fault. When I am instructed to:
    Mac~ zaphod$ sudo ls -l /Volumes/StorageLabs\ TinyUDF\ Volume/Password:<enter your root/admin password>
    I get:
    -bash: enter: No such file or directory
    Any help would be appreciated. I submit the terminal commands in the previous solution:
    $ mount
    Mac~ zaphod$ sudo ls -l /Volumes/StorageLabs\ TinyUDF\ Volume/Password:<enter your root/admin password>
    Mac:~ zaphod$ sudo cp -R /Volumes/StorageLabs\ TinyUDF\ Volume/VIDEO_TS ~/Desktop
    sudo chmod -R 777 ~/Desktop/VIDEO_TS/

    I have found a way to copy files from a "StorageLabs Tiny UDF Volume" DVD file in a Mac without using Terminal.  I cannot speak to Mountain Lion since I am using Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.8).  However I believe this will work.  It requires TOAST.  Here is a step-by-step:
    1.  With TOAST turned off, insert the disc that contains one or more TinyUDF files.
    2.  Make a duplicate of the file on the desktop (cmd-d).  (This may take some time - 10, 15 or 20 minutes and may require your password).
    3.  Open TOAST; select Video and click on DVD-Video.  (NOTE: When you open TOAST the original TinyUDF Volume folder will be hidden, but the duplicate will remain).  Do not eject your disc until later.
    4.  Display the TOAST "Media Browser" (click on the small icon at the top right corner of the Toast window, just to the left of the question mark).
    5.  In the Media Browser, for the upper bar use the pull-down menu and select DVD.  For the lower bar use the pull down menu and select "- - - - DVD-VR".  Files/Titles that are on the disc will be shown.  If Chapters are desired, in the lower bar select the video File/Title and Chapters of the video will be displayed.
    6.  Drag only one desired File/Title to the DVD-Video window and save as a Disc Image to the Desktop or other location.  File will be multiplexed and then written and the saved file will show as a folder named "(name).toast".  If the disc contains multiple Files/Titles repeat this step to a new DVD-Video window for each desired File/Title, creating a separate Disc Image for each File/Title.
    7.  To record a single File/Title on a new DVD, in TOAST select "VIDEO_TS Folders".  Click on the saved Disc Image ((name).toast).  A window will open and display Video_TS and Audio_TS folders.
    8.  Drag the Video_TS folder to the TOAST "VIDEO_TS Folders" window.  If additional titles are to go on the same new disc go to  step 9.  Otherwise eject the original disc and insert a recordable disc.  (Clicking the "Options" button will provide a preview before making a new recording).  Click the red TOAST button to create a new DVD recording.
    9.  To put more than one File/Title on a disc, put each File/Title in new TOAST DVD-Video window and save each as a separate Disc Image.  In TOAST, select "VIDEO-TS Compilation" and drag the Video-TS folder from each Disc Image into the window in the desired sequence.  Eject the original disc and insert a recordable disc.  Click the red TOAST button to create a new DVD recording.
    I hope I haven't missed anything, but these are the steps I took to create a new DVD from my "TinyUDF" disc which contained 3 separate videos.  If you find an error please reply with a correction.

  • Automated backup using rsync!

    I'm running the following command:
    rsync -aE --delete /Users/MacBook/Desktop/me/ /Volumes/HD/ 2>>~/rsyncErr.txt || echo -n
    and its working fine, but my problem is the volume HD when i drag it to terminal sometimes it shows HD, sometimes it shows HD-1 and sometimes HD-2 or HD-3, im really confused .. cause if its hd-1 and its written in the command as hd-2 it will not take a backup.
    I went to the finder and then "go to folder" and i typed /Volumes/ i found the following HD and HD-1 and HD-2 and HD-3, but all of them are alias kind and it keeps on creating these aliases !
    I even tried to erase and format the client machine first two days it was one HD, two days after it shows another HD-1 , and so on .. is this problem related to the server itself!?
    note that HD is a folder located in the Xserve raid and its connected to my computer through the ethernet network!
    how can i avoid this problem!

  • Running commands on GNOME login/logout

    Hi everyone,
    I have a truecrypt partition which I want to mount on GNOME login and dismount on logout. My approach is different to the one in the Truecrypt wiki since I don't like having passwords stored unencrypted in files:
    What I want to do is basically run "sudo truecrypt --auto-mount=favorites" everytime my user logs in to GNOME (not to a terminal) and run "sudo truecrypt -d" on logout.
    How can I do this? I didn't find anything in the GNOME wiki entry or on the web, only for logins in general using .bashrc which is not what I want.
    Thanks for any help.
    BTW, does anyone know why there is no possibility to start TrueCrypt minimized to tray (the TrueCrypt Background Task) on Linux? Also, the Windows version has a "Mount favorite volumes on startup" setting which I couldn't find in the Linux version. These two things would have saved me a lot of time.

    arkham wrote:If you are using gdm to login/logout you could take a look in /etc/gdm. There are some folders called PreSession and PostSession which may be useful to you,
    Somehow these folders don't work for me. I decided to use the GNOME startup programs to run the mount command since it shows a window requesting the volume password. I added a "Truecrypt" file with the following content to the PostSession folder, made it executable by everyone, but my volume doesn't get unmounted.
    #!/bin/sh
    sudo truecrypt -d
    exit 0
    The solution for the login command is basically found, any suggestions how to get the PostSession file working or even another way to run the logout command?

  • Truecrypt volume is empty, but the volume was never deleted. How do I recover the files (I know the password to the Truecrypt volume)?

    Earlier when I went to access my truecrypt password encrypted volume, it showed that it was empty, and it contained 0 files. I never deleted the files and I am the only person with the password.
    I suspect it may be because (1) I tried making a password protected folder on disk utility or (2) tried to setup time machine and didn't quite work.
    My question is: is it possible to recover the files, if so, how can I recover the files. I've tried manually powering the computer off, restarting the computer, reinstalling truecrpt.
    Please help, I have many treasured pictures on the volume.

  • ISO: a way to password protect a volume or drive

    Is there any EASY way to password protect a volume or drive either via the OS or by some utility? I'd like to have one drive with my sensitive docs that's password protected that I could carry with me and use on multiple systems. I see various encryption apps that involve elaborate schemes for protecting data. I'm looking for a simple Access/No-Access solution.
    Ideally I'd like it so when I boot up or when I plug in my "protected drive" I'd be asked for a password. If I, or whomever is trying to access the drive, declines or puts in the wrong password the volume simply would not mount or better still, mount but be inaccessible until the password is entered.
    With so much security built in to OSX seems like there must be a way to do this.

    You entered your password when you logged in; when you authenticated yourself. Unix has never done a second password; you authenticated yourself at the front door. You can certainly set up the file protections to keep other users out.
    As for password-protecting a specific object, that's -- as others have stated -- an add-on. Or you use the built-in FileVault stuff, or external hardware.
    There are current-generation drives that have password protection mechanisms or similar authentication -- USB keydisks and hard disks. Or you can use a commodity drive and the built-in FileVault. This akin to what you remember with the SyQuest drive.
    Or consider products such as the following:
    http://www.pgp.com/products/wholediskencryption/tech_specs.html
    http://www.usbgear.com/USB-Encryption.html
    Or what some of us do. Unplug the disk containing the data, and lock it up somewhere safe. If a desk drawer isn't sufficient, there are also physical disk enclosures with physical locks available on the market.
    Realize that various of these encryption products aren't worth as much as the proverbial warm bucket of spit; various of these products either use colossally weak encryption, or have mis-implemented encryption. It would not surprise me to learn that some even have back-doors.
