Wanted - drive icons that show the percent drive used & free graphically

Anyone know of an app or utility that dynamically modifies each mounted desktop drive icon to show the percentage of drive used and free?
I'd like to see a pie graph or bar graph of how much disk space is used and free as the drive icon.
While I am wishing I'd like it to dynamically update in real time or at some settable interval.
I have iPulse that sort of shows it. I am sure there are other apps that provide a separate indicator but I want the indication as the drive icon.
There.... I wished my wish.

I just noticed that if in view, you change the font size to 10, 11, 13, or 14pt, it displays correctly. Any other size and it does not.
huh, I never thought to try that. Odd that 12pt doesn't work. Maybe I'll resubmit this bug.

  • Weather icon that shows the current weather?

    My blackberry weather app used the icon to show the current weather conditions (sunny, rain, etc). The iphone calendar icon can show the current date. Is there a weather app that can use the iphone icon to show the current weather? I haven't found one yet.

    The calendar app is a native app and the only one that does change its icon. Third-party apps don't have that facility.
    The built-in Weather app does change its icon though - but only dependent on where you are (the region settings in the phone) and only shows either 23° Sunny or 73° Sunny - nothing else

  • How can I list all folders that contain files with a specific file extension? I want a list that shows the parent folders of all files with a .nef extension.

    not the total path to the folder containing the files but rather just a parent folder one level up of the files.
    So file.nef that's in folder 1 that's in folder 2 that's in folder 3... I just want to list folder 1, not 2 or 3 (unless they contain files themselves in their level)

    find $HOME -iname '*.nef' 2>/dev/null | awk -F '/'   'seen[$(NF-1)]++ == 0 { print $(NF-1) }'
    This will print just one occurrence of directory
    The 'find' command files ALL *.nef files under your home directory (aka Folder)
    The 2>/dev/null throws away any error messages from things like "permissions denied" on a protected file or directory
    The 'awk' command extracts the parent directory and keeps track of whether it has displayed that directory before
    -F '/' tells awk to split fields using the / character
    NF is an awk variable that contains the number of fields in the current record
    NF-1 specifies the parent directory field, as in the last field is the file name and minus one if the parent directory
    $(NF-1) extracts the parent directory
    seen[] is a context addressable array variable (I choose the name 'seen'). That means I can use text strings as lookup keys.  The array is dynamic, so the first time I reference an element, if it doesn't exist, it is created with a nul value.
    seen[$(NF-1)] accesses the array element associated with the parent directory.
    seen[$(NF-1)]++ The ++ increments the element stored in the array associated with the parent directory key AFTER the value has been fetched for processing.  That is to say the original value is preserved (short term) and the value in the array is incremented by 1 for the next time it is accessed.
    the == 0 compares the fetched value (which occurred before it was incremented) against 0.  The first time a unique parent directory is used to access the array, a new element will be created and its value will be returned as 0 for the seen[$(NF-1)] == 0 comparison.
    On the first usage of a unique parent directory the comparison will be TRUE, so the { print $(NF-1) } action will be performed.
    After the first use of a unique parent directory name, the seen[$(NF-1)] access will return a value greater than 0, so the comparison will be FALSE and thus the { print $(NF-1)] } action will NOT be performed.
    Thus we get just one unique parent directory name no matter how many *.nef files are found.  Of course you get only one unique name, even if there are several same named sub-directories but in different paths
    You could put this into an Automator workflow using the "Run Shell Script" actions.

  • Msi Live Update....not Show The Last Driver

    Hi
    whe MSI Live Monitor (MSI Live Update 3), search.. not show, the last driver...and bios....
    I have a G4MX460-VTP
    and the driver in the MSI Live Update is:
    Online Ver. 4403 (MSI Version)
    but when visit the MSI webpage (http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_detail.php?UID=154) the last driver is:
    Nvidia driver 45.32 for Win2000/WinXP/Server2003 OS
    and in the Nvidia webpage is 50.16.....
    and the same happend with the VGA Bios...
    y fix my vga cad update the VGA bios....but...this update don't show in the Live Update 3
    How fix it???
    thanks

    Do not update the VGA BIOS unless you have a good reason to. It is not like a motherboard.
    Go to  nVidia Drivers if you want the latest drivers.
    Live Update may not have been updated OR the version reported by the Live Update utility has been tested successfully with that card. Newer drivers sometimes cause problems with older cards. The only way to know for sure is got to the nVidia site and try the latest.

    My win8 pc hard drive failed.  After the hard drive was replaced, I copied iTunes Media backupfiles from external hard drive (Karen's Replicator backup software was used).  ITunes does not recognize these back up files even though the location is the same as cloud & recently burned music that does show- help!  The backup files consist of 34,000+ songs; almost all burned from my own CD collection.  I do have most of the songs on an ipod classic but hesitate to try to restore from that.  Can someone tell me how to get these 34,000 songs to show up in iTunes?  Thanks!!

    This diagram shows how a typical iTunes library ought to be set out (click on it to enlarge)
    The red outline highlights the media folder and its contents, the various subfolders are only created if that kind of content is in your library. The right-hand side shows the files that should be found in the iTunes library folder; sentinel is normally hidden so may not be visible. The core of your iTunes library is the file iTunes Library.itl, you need to restore this, the other library files and the Album Artwork folder, as well as the media folder, to restore your library.

  • Mac mini solid state hard drive does that replace the 2 by 1T hard drive

    mac mini solid state hard drive does that replace the 2 by 1T hard drive

    There wouldn't be enough room in the Mac Mini enclosure for 2 Fusion Drives since they are really just a SSD and a Platter HD working in conjunction. Could really be smoking in a 4 Drive RAID box though. I am speculating here but there is only 1 additional partition allowed in the Fusion Drive. My thought is that the current Management Software would get thoroughly confused with multiple partitions probably due to mount points not being able to register in a normal manner. IMHO the Fusion Drive is another crutch for the normal/average user that doesn't want to be bothered with file management protocols.

  • Is Disk Utility in OS X 10.8.2 the version of Disk utilit that controls the Fusion Drive on new Imacs?

    is Disk Utility in OS X 10.8.2 the version of Disk utilit that controls the Fusion Drive on new Imacs?

    No. Only those computers with a Fusion Drive installed will get the special version of Disk Utility. Do a Google search if you want to find out how to create a fusion drive with older systems, but I suggest it's a waste of time.

  • I'm doing a timemachine backup of my current MBPro. The MBPro has aproximately 250 GB of content that is being "timemachine'd". My new SSD is only 128 GB, how do I restore the timemachine backup, when my old drive was larger than the new drive?

My new SSD is only 128 GB, how do I restore the timemachine backup, when my old drive was larger than the new drive? Is there a way to pick what you want to restore or am I completely f***ed? I tried googling the answer but all i got was how to move the timemachine backup to another HDD. Sorry for the ******** question, thought I'd try here.
    Thanks for the help.

  • I have iMovie 09. I just erased my external hard drive, but it is still formatted for the mac. However, iMovie will not recognize the hard drive. It shows the only hard drive available is the computers. How do I get the external hard drive to show up?

    In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
    Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
    Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
    If it does contain data...

    how can i play iTunes on apple tv from my mac?  i used to have an icon that synced the two but i can't find that icon anymore

    If you are using the 2nd or 3rd gen Apple TV (little black box) then it would have no syncing or storage capability.
    iTunes content would be accessed using home sharing.

  • NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver

    Alienware M14x Laptop
    Windows 7-pre 64-bit
    8gb ram
    3gb Video: NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M
    Intel i7 2760QM
    AE CS4
    AE keeps crashing. I get the following message while doing something as simple as scrubbing through the timeline, or changing opacity of a layer. in 1080p, I have a picture layer, a solid, some color corrections, and that's it. i just got this new computer and i have never had this problem on my old computer.
    this message appears after AE crashes."The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver and is unable to continue. The application must close."
    this message appears in the taskbar: "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered. Display driver NVIDIA Windows kernel Mode Driver, Version 267.21 stopped responding and has successfully recovered"
    any ideas on how to stop AE from causing my display driver to stop working?
    Thanks, Ramzi Rebeiz

    For anyone picking up this thread (it's probably too late for rrebeiz40 by now!) I have come across a simple but apparently very effective tip that has solved the 'OpenGL driver lost connection' issue for many people using various NVIDIA with various Adobe progs (incidentally a lot of these seem to crop up on Dell machines, especially Notebooks).
    (It fixed my issue with Premiere Pro CS4 - GeForce GT 555M on Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit, Dell XPSL702X).
    It's posted on http://forum-archive.developer.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=5331&st=40 (look for the last post, No 50) as follows:
    THIS FIX APPEARS TO WORK...found on an Adobe forum
    "This issue led me to this fix: go to NVIDIA Control Panel --> Manage 3D Settings --> Global Settings, and switch "Power Management Mode" to "Prefer Maximum Performance" (the default "Adaptive" setting seemed to be the culprit). And that's it! The key here is changing the "Global" setting, as my individual programs were already set to "Prefer Maximum Performance." I can cause the error to reoccur by changing back to "Adaptive."
    Otherwise lots more ideas on this site: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Fix...Nvlddmkm-Error/
    My PC has been running for 2 days now. I only put the top fix in for now. Feel happier I have more options if need be though.
