What happened to /etc/logrotate.d/crond?
It seems that a recent upgrade removed /etc/logrotate.d/crond and saved a /etc/logrotate.d/crond.pacsave file.
What happened to the original crond file -- is it no longer used? Also, is there a tool or feature provided by pacman that could help me determine the reason for changes like this in the future, maybe something that allows me to find and read release notes?
I tried searching around the forums but found nothing. Thanks in advance for the help.
cron's logging is now handled by syslog-ng, so this file has been merged into /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng. Note also that the logfile name has changed from cron.log to crond.log.
This happened months ago. It was talked about at the time, mostly on arch-dev-public and in the bugtracker.

What happened to /etc/securetty?
I want to be able to log on as root over the network - enabling this used to involve renaming or removing /etc/securetty, but this file doesn't exist in my newly installed Solari 10. How is this managed now? And where can I read more about these 'deeper' aspects of the system (such as where the seucrity info is kept etc)?
No, /etc/securetty is found on all UNIXes - even our
Solaris 8 box.Just because that file is currently on your box does not mean it was installed by or is used by Solaris.
While not authoritative, the UNIX rosetta stone page suggests that only a few versions of UNIX use that file (or /etc/securettys) for login permission. <http://bhami.com/rosetta.html>
What does 'grep /etc/securetty /var/sadm/install/contents' show on your Solaris 8 machine with the file?

With the iTunes runtime error, the only solution seems to be to uninstall iTunes. If I can't open iTunes as it currently the case because of this issue, therefore I can't backup. What happens to all the audio CDs, books, etc. that I've uploaded to iTunes that I didn't purchase through iTunes when uninstalling. Can I be assured that these are in the Cloud also?
See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
There is a link to an iTunes library backup tip within, along with other advice on getting iTunes reinstalled and working again.
You don't need iTunes to be working to backup the library. You do need iTunes to be working to backup or restore your device...

My computer crashed and I have to buy a new one. What happens to my Contacts, Photos, etc when i use the new computer? I do not have an iTunes backup.
Do you have the iCloud set up? If you don't you need to buy a third party software that will do it for you when you plug your phone into the new computer. You can google: iPad/iPhone/iPod to Computer Transfer. You have to pay for the software but it's really a life saver and you get free updates for life. It'll save you a lot of pain and suffering in the future. I've used it many times.

What happened to my Google home page with weather, etc in Firefox 4?
I set up a Google homepage with weather, news link, translator, etc and Firefox 4 install has wiped it out. I just get standard Google as my home page. What happened? Do I have to go back and request everything again?
Same issue here. Seems that all cache and cookies were wiped out with the update. Being a software engineer myself, I have to say, it's generally considered '''''very''''' poor practice for software updates to wipe out user data. It's very surprising that this would happen with Mozilla.
Unfortunately, I'm trying to get everything back to how it was for an elderly family member, and she has no clue how she got it set up to begin with. I'm pretty sure that she didn't have an iGoogle account? -
What happened to the 'arrow' in the corner of highlighted text on a web page that allowed you to instantly search google etc without having to copy & paste - in FFv4 ?
Ah right - many thanks ...
Cant see the Google toolbar extension anywhere on FFv4
Cant see it on the 'extensions page either ?
Do you have a link for it at all.
Thanks -
my computer is telling me it does not recognise my ipdad mini and is asking me to restore to factory settings what happens if i do that will i lose all my photos, music etc? how do i get my computer to recognise my ipad mini?
Thankshave you backed up in the past with iTunes or iCloud? If so, it is possible that you will not lose this information, but I cannot guarantee anything.
Check for backups in iTunes by going to Preferences > Devices > Device backups
If you do not see any, and your iPad is still in working order, check for iCloud backups in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup
Also, if your iPad is still in working order, you can backup with itunes before restoring : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 -
I am due to upgrade my iphone 3 to iphone 5. I have icloud which is co-ordinating my iphone 3 and Mac Pro updating each other. What happens when I get a new phone - I dont want to lose all my addresses, notes etc. What is the procedure and step by step action? The new phone arrives - then what?
When I upgraded from the iPhone 3GS to iPhone 5, I simply did a Backup of my phone using iTunes, plugged in the new iPhone 5 into my Mac, and did a Restore of that backup to put everything back. This procedure is documented around the web. Also, the new phone will ask you for your Apple ID and when you enter it, all your iCloud info will be downloaded to the phone. It worked pretty well for me.

What happens to other email accounts(Gmail,AOL etc.)?
what happens to other email accounts(Gmail,AOL etc.)?
This is a very vague question. If you have a MobileMe account and have been accessing them in the MobileMe online email pane, this facility is not available in iCloud; however you can perfectly well set them up in the Mail application on a Mac or an iPhone and check them that way.
If you have an Apple ID using one of these accounts, it would be for iTunes or these forums, and you retain is for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match, and migrate your MobileMe account (if any) at http://me.com/move to move your calendars, contacts, bookmarks and email to iCloud. -

What happened to user restrictions on apps/sys prefs etc?
What happened to the user restrictions on system preferences and applications/utilities etc controls you used to have in the user account set-ups? (In Panther I think?) You used to be able to easily restrict a user to only certain applications and limited system preferences?
I can't seem to find it in Tiger (i'm running 10.4.8)? Have they changed this? I see you can have a admin, standard or modirated user - but this ability to restrict apps etc was essential for my machines.
Has it gone or am I just not looking in the right place?!hi,
system preferences,
account,
select account,
parental control,
select system & finder
set your apps restrict preferences.
restrict user can't be an admin. -
I use a desktop version of Lightroom and am wanting to move to the Cloud version. What happens to my files, etc., on my desktop when I download the cloud version? I don't want to lose my metadata, etc. If anyone out there knows, please let me know.
I just installed LR CC and am having trouble opening catalogs where I followed the instructions to upgrade. Just posted a question about it.
Discovered a problem when I went looking for some images that were not included in the most recent catalog. After opening up a couple of older ones and upgrading, I went back to the most recent and couldn't opening. Message says it is not writable. And also says it may be due to incorrect permissions. If you have any suggestions for this, I would love to hear them. -
whats happened to the file sharing apps after the itunes 11 update.
Im trying to move files in office HD, keynote and VLC.....this was easily done in previous version.
apply why do you do this? you always disapoint on updates and leave users high and dry.
someone please help.Believe it or not File Sharing is there but in a slightly different location. But I was definitely confused and had trouble finding it when I looked because of the way iTunes has windows within windows.
Start iTunes 11 and connect your iPad.
Select your iPad. I choose to "View Sidebar" so my iTunes looks more familiar. So I select my iPad in the Sidebar.
I the main window I select Apps. And scroll down.
There are multiple sub windows within the main window. The first sub wind is Apps. If you scroll in the Apps window that's all you will see, your apps.
Move your cursor outside of the App window and the main window will scroll. Below the Apps sub window is another subwidow called File Sharing. That's where you'll find the familiar file sharing area.
Good lick,

Why is storage capacity shown as full when it is not? Phone shows storage of only 7.6 GB out of 13 GB, but says I have no more storage. iTunes indicates I am using 5.6 GB under the category "OTHER". This is a sudden change. What happened?

E4X: What happens to the root element?
I'm working with XML using the E4X notation. I'm used to the "old school" XML APIs that use DOM and I'm a bit confused.
For example, let's consider the following XML
<mx:XML id="myXML" >
<top>
<sub1 id="uno">
<sub2>hello</sub2>
<sub3>world</sub3>
</sub1>
<sub1 id="duo">
<sub2>ok</sub2>
<sub3>ko</sub3>
</sub1>
</top>
</mx:XML>
In my code I use the following traces. This is done with the De MonsterDebugger, but all others should work the same way. I have casted the traces to String only to make it easier to ask this question (no need post images)
MonsterDebugger.trace(this, "myXML:" + myXML);
MonsterDebugger.trace(this, "myXML.sub1: " + myXML.sub1);
MonsterDebugger.trace(this, "myXML.sub1.sub2: " + myXML.sub1.sub2);
What I get as output is
(String) = myXML:<top>
<sub1 id="uno">
<sub2>hello</sub2>
<sub3>world</sub3>
</sub1>
<sub1 id="duo">
<sub2>ok</sub2>
<sub3>ko</sub3>
</sub1>
</top>
(String) = myXML.sub1: <sub1 id="uno">
<sub2>hello</sub2>
<sub3>world</sub3>
</sub1>
<sub1 id="duo">
<sub2>ok</sub2>
<sub3>ko</sub3>
</sub1>
(String) = myXML.sub1.sub2: <sub2>hello</sub2>
<sub2>ok</sub2>
All is fine above and this was a bit long abstract for my question. The question is what happens to the root element, in this case <top>? I was trying to access the data with the following notation
myXML.top.sub1; // etc
I spent quite a lot of time trying to get it to work, until I discovered that the root element is not used. Can anyone explain this?
Or, I guess the simple explanation is that the root node is ignored and the sub nodes are created as properties of the object. The question also could be stated as: Why isn't this documented in the Flex API Reference?
Thanks.
P.S. I found this article on common E4X pitfalls which also has other interesting topics when working with E4X.its gone
