If you are not running a web server
If you have not enabled CUPS web interface
If you do not allow anonymous users to ssh into your Mac.
If all are no, they you are not at risk.
This IS a very serious bug for web servers, but the typical consumer Mac user is not at risk.

MS14-066: Vulnerability in SChannel could allow remote code execution: November 11, 2014

I have a server 2008 R2, with NO Service Pack 1 installed.
Will this https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2992611 patch still be applicable for me to install? It says not.
But is the system vulnarable? And Do I have to install Service Pack 1 to NOT be vulnarable anymore?

I have a server 2008 R2, with NO Service Pack 1 installed.
Well, that's your VERY FIRST problem. You MUST have Service Pack 1 installed to receive ANY update published since early 2013.
Will this https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2992611 patch still be applicable for me to install?
No.
But is the system vulnarable?
Absolutely!!! Not to mention vulnerable to several dozen other security vulnerabilities patched in the past year and a half.

Stuck in BASH (Bourne-again Shell)!

I would appreciate if anyone offered any ideas how to fix my PowerBook G4 with OS X 10.3.7. In the middle of an update, the computer froze, and I restarted the machine. Now, after an extra-long boot up process, it loads up BASH (Bourne-again Shell), which, I understand to be, a UNIX shell. Commands like “exit” just bring up BASH again; restarting brings up the same scenario.
How can I get out of this loop and get back to my OS X? Any advice, comments, or suggestions on where to find help would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
Eric

Good, you are able to log in at the prompt. I hope with an administrative account, but if not we'll worry about that later.
The system.log should indicate the cause of being unable to start up normally. You may want to print this post out, preferably in a largish mono-spaced font.
Type this carefully, spaces and punctuation are important:
tail -20 /var/log/system.log | moreNote the '|' ('pipe' symbol) is normally above the '\' on Apple keyboards. This command combination looks at the last 100 lines of your log.
You may see a "loginwindow[xxx] : exiting to console" message. The lines immediately above that will give the reason. Look especially for messages saying something like "login authorization failed", followed by a "AuthorizationRef doesn't have a username" message or something similar. A typical set of log entries would be:
loginwindow[281]: Login authorization failed (-60008)!
loginwindow[281]: AuthorizationRef doesn't have a username (<LoginAuthRefMgr: 0x44b60>)
loginwindow[281]: exiting to consoleIf this is the case, then take a look at this post, and follow the instructions carefully:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1553062#1553062
The procedure there has worked for a lot of people.
If this is not applicable, post what you do see and I'll take a look tomorrow (1:30 am here!)

When i hide some fields from the Editform using javascript, what will happen to the fields that hve been hidden

I am working on an EnterpriseWiki site collection, and when users edit the page properties as follow:-
then will get all the fields inside the EnterpriseWiki content type as follow:-
now i want to hide all the fields except the ; Title & Name, so i edit the EditForm and i add the following script:-
<script>
$('#formTbl tr').filter(function ()
return !$(".ms-standardheader", this).text().match(/Name|Title/i);
}).remove();
</script>
so currently when users edit the wiki page properties they can only edit the Name & Title, because the script hide the other fields.
My question is what will happen to the other values such as the page content, assign to , etc that have been hidden.. I test this and seems that when editing the name and title the other values will not get effected which is what i need, but not sure how
did SharePoint handle this, i was afraid that hiding the other columns will set their values as null or empty if the user save the editform with only the title and name inside it ? can anyone adivce on this ?

Hi John,
From your description, my understanding is that you are worried about the values of some fields
will been saved as empty if you hide them in EditForm.
If you hide some fields in EditForm, it means that you could not edit them. These fields’ values will not be changed after editing Title field or Name field. When you click Save button, they will be still the values before changing the Title field or Name
field.

i found this very critical issue with hiding the fields from the edit form, now i wrote the following script inside the edit form , to hide all the fields except the Name
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#formTbl tr').filter(function () {
return !$(".ms-standardheader", this).text().match(/Name/i); }).hide();
$('#ctl00_ctl40_g_6c7d849e_da6b_4138_be9f_b99bde542065_ctl00_ctl02_ctl00_ctl04_c‌ tl00_WebPartMaintenancePageLink').hide(); });
</script>"
. and now if I submit the editform (which only contain the Name) all the html tables inside the wiki page content will be removed.

What has happened to the rotating disk when sending e-mails in 6.2?

What has happened to the rotating disk when sending e-mails in 6.2?

Fast user switching is on... I use the Name reference but I've tried switching to icon with the same result. If the a account I'm switching to is not logged in I get a blank Blue screen for about 2 seconds then the desktop of the account. If the account is already logged in then from the login window (all accounts have passwords) it just switches directly to the desktop.
I have spaces turned on on my main account however none of the other accounts do, the same thing happens regardless of which account you are switching from or to.
If you hadn't said it was working for you I would have believe they just pulled it from Leopard.

What will happen to the data block after data offloading?

HI All,
Since offloading can filter out the necessary information such as unnecessary columns and rows before they are passed to the database, I want to know what will happen to the data block? Will some new blocks be built at this time,which only contains the useful information?
Best regards,
Leon

The statement seems to imply that Exadata has the ability to strip out columns from a block, but a block is a block is a block. Offloading is remarkable at filtering out data in the storage layer that ultimately is not needed but if you only need one row in a block that has 100 rows in it, you still get the whole block (and all 100 rows) to be processed by Oracle. The columns portion of the statement is when HCC is used for a table allowing only the blocks containing the column data required for the query, and thus if a block has 1000 column values in it, it will pass all 1000 column values to the instance to be processed.These assertions are incorrect.
Blocks sent to the database grid as a result of a Smart Scan contain only the necessary columns and rows for the db grid to do its processing (after filter restrictions and projection restrictions are applied). These Smart Scan blocks are created at run time by the storage server so they have no bearing on the blocks that reside physically on disk which is why they can not be reused by other queries via the SGA and are read directly into the PGA space.

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.

Thank you Sig. Well I keep all my passwords in my keychain. I'm concerned I'll lose them after today. I understand that keychain will be obsolete after today. I don't want icloud either, because I don't want all my personal info on a server. I want to keep my personal information in my system. Am I making any sense? Can you make any suggestions or offer any insights around this?

I just bought two new iPads a few weeks ago. If they're still in the return window they're going back. Maybe it's time to look at some of the Android tablets since all of a sudden Apple thinks the mini is a great idea.
