When can we stop worrying about shellshock and get back online?

When can we expect to get back online safely after the Shuttershock debacle?

The BASH/Shellshock 'debacle' does not affect most users.  That is only a concern for those running public access web servers and those allowing unrestricted remote SSH logins.  Unless you are not limiting who can login remotely and use a secure shell, you should not be concerned.

  • Photos tells me it is connecting to Library for shared photos. It's been saying this for about ten hours. I can't stop it from searching or get it to do anything else. I can go back to my photos but I can't get Photos to find the shared items.

    Be sure Safari does not have the Block Pop-Up Windows preference set.
    Where I work now there are several unencrypted VLANs that require authentication, and Safari promptly pops up a window for me to register every time.

    you do have to actually define the area to be bounced in the dialogue window that comes up - there are some discrepencies in the way that the program behaves like that,
    Apart from the "Include Audio Tail" function, which can leave Logic bouncing for a very, very long time, there are generally, no discrepancies regarding the Bounce Locators:
    If Cycle is enabled, the bounce locators will be set to the cycle locators.
    If Cycle is off, and regions are selected, the bounce locators will be set to the selection.
    If cycle is off, and no regions are selected, the bounce locators will be set from the Project Start to the project end.
    It is smart to actually check that the bounce locators are set where you would like them to be.

    If you get caught with a bounce that does not stop, Command . (period) should do the trick.

    I recently Updated my phone and my front camera stopped working its pitch black but still shows the icons on the screen but when i get off the app and get back on and flip the camera to my face view it works fine

    Hi there Fgonzalez2015,
    You may find the camera troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

    Did you delete all receipts with iDVD in the file name  with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder before installing the new copy?  If not then do so and delete the new application also.

  • My iPad is downloading my video purchases automatically, but it's only downloading two episodes from Supernatural S10 that I have watched and deleted. I can't stop it from downloading, and I can't download anything else because of it. Help!

    My iPad is downloading my video purchases automatically, but it's only downloading two episodes from Supernatural S10 that I have watched and deleted. I can't stop it from downloading, and I can't download anything else because of it. I don't know what to do. There is some sort of glitch happening and it's really affecting my iPad. I've tried letting it download but before it completes, it says it is unable to complete process and asks me to try again. I am on a limited interest data plan and can't afford these downloads to continue. What can I do?

    Have you tried deleting the App within the Settings menu (rather than from the Home Screen)?
    Settings>General>Usage>
    From the Apps list, find the App (press "Show all Apps" if the app is not in the immediately shown list), tap on the app you wish to delete, then tap "Delete App"

  • Do I have to worry about my macpro getting hacked?

    Do I have to worry about my macpro getting hacked?

    The SSL problem has been handled by Apple through security updates to the Mavericks and Mountain Lion and Lion operating systems.  If your operating systems are up-to-date you have little to worry about.
    The Mac OS X Mavericks update, 10.9.2, is quick and easy to install.
    The concerns with the SSL flaw are with using an unsecure public wireless network.  If you are using your MBP on a wired network or your own network there is very little likelihood of a problem.  The flaw did not allow access to the computer, just third-party eavesdropping on the communication.
    But, one should always be aware of the risks involved in transmitting sensitive information such as credit card numbers, bank account information, over any public wireless network.  Always use proper secure and encrypted communications when doing that.

  • Is there anyway I can get rid of Lion and get back to Snow Leopard?

    Is there anyway I can get rid of Lion and get back to Snow Leopard?

    Back to Snow Leopard from Lion install method
    Read and print out these instructions, your computer is going to be offline and you wil be cutoff from help until your machine is restored.
    Clear the Desktop, Downloads and Trash of anything you wish to keep by placing their files in the respective Documents, Music, Pictures, Movie folders.
    Disconnect other drives except the sole backup drive.
    Backup ALL your Users folders (Documents, Pictures, Movies, Music etc) manually (drag and drop methods) to a (not TimeMachine) external powered drive (HFS+ journaled formatted in Disk Utility) and disconnect, your going to be wiping the entire boot disk of ALL DATA.
    (warning, everything will be gone and not recovered, OS, programs, files, Windows etc all gone.)
    Note: You might want to hold c and boot off the 10.6 installer disk and use Disk Utility to format the new blank external drive instead of using OS X Lion if that's hosed. Then reboot into Lion and copy files, may be safer that way.
    Here we go!
    Hold c and boot off the 10.6 installer disk that comes with your computer and second screen in just STOP there, don't install OS X yet.
    Look at the Utilities Menu for Disk Utility.
    On the left is the name of your hard drive maker, click it and Erase (format HFS+ Journaled), give it the same drive name as before, and click Erase...
    (note: if you want to "scrub" the drive of old files that haven't been overwritten yet, then use the Security Option > Zero Erase, takes a lot longer)
    This should wipe the drive of ALL partitions (GUID, OS X and 10.7 Recovery, Windows if present)
    When it's done, quit and install OS X 10.6. Then install all your programs from fresh sources and validate/update.
    When you setup a first account, use the same user name as before, this way you can simply drag and drop the content of your previous Users folders from the external drive right back into the new Users folders and everything should work peachy. Links in iTunes to music, playlists and iPhoto links especially.
    Update OS X to 10.6.8 using the Combo Update for best results.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    (Note: If your original machine had 10.5 and you want the free iLife that comes with the disks with the computer, then you'll have to install 10.5 first using the same c boot/erase/format methods as above, then update to 10.6 via the disk, then Combo Update 10.6.8)
    Final step optional but highly recommended.
    A lot of people use a Carbon Copy Clone of their boot drive to a new HFS+Journaled external drive (used only for this purpose) as a "hold the option key" bootable backup in case something goes wrong with their boot drive or need to restore to a previous OS X version..  (in addition to TimeMachine drive for more immediate backups.)
    It's not advised to have a Bootable Clone and a TimeMachine partition on the same external drive, as two drives gives hardware protection in case one fails.

  • Since recent updates, I have noticed that my apps close automatically when I am distracted. In some cases it is time consuming to sign back in and get back to the task I was doing. Is it possible to change a setting so the apps will stay open?

    Since recent updates of iOS, I have noticed when using my iPad that my apps close automatically when I have to leave the room or am otherwise distracted for a few minutes. It is sometimes time consuming to sign back in and get back to the task where i left off. Is there a setting I can change so it will keep the apps open until I am ready to close them? Thanks for your help.

    Did you have this problem before Restoring you iPad?
    If you did then did you restore with a backup. You may have reinstalled something that is conflicting in this back up
    If not then sounds like either something went array with the clean install or a hardware issue.
    I know it's long winded but have you tired a clean install then downloading the apps again?

  • How can I uninstall Pages 5.2 and go back to Pages 4.3?

    I am very frustrated using Pages 5.2.  It is not as easy to use as 5.2 and causes me all sorts of problems - especially when highlighting text.  How can I uninstall Pages 5.2 and go back to Pages 4.3 which was much easier to use?

    Thanks. The new version of Pages and iMovie are useless to me. I need to delete the new version of Pages so my functional documents won't keep trying to "upgrade" to pages 5.2.  It annoys me to no end. I hope they smarten up soon.
    It seems that Apple is trying to turn its computer applications into iphone apps. They are eliminating essential features and functions that don't work on a 600 dollar pocket watch. It appears to be part of a misguided attempt to have universal cross-platform compatibility. Or they just want to get out of the computer business. I suspect that accountants are having too much influence on business models. There is a place for accountants. But giving too much control to bean counters can eliminate quality and cripple innovation, leading to the ultimate downfall of the corporation.

  • Can I un-install iOS 8 and go back to iOS 7.1 on my 5s?

    Can I un-install iOS 8 and go back to iOS 7.1 on my 5s?

    YMMV:  You have been warned that some are successful,  others apparently are not.  I approached it very methodically and ended up with a successful downgrade.  I offer this only to those that are stuck, and for work reasons need their phone to work,  don't want to keep trouble shooting and re-installing IOS8.
    I used an official Apple supplied copy of the 7.1.2 ipsw and would not do otherwise.
    Below is best explanation I found.  Keep in mind you cannot restore from an IOS8.0 backup if you are successful going back to 7.1.2.  In other words,  any text messages / photo messages, data,  photo's and videos that you haven't put up onto the icloud need to be saved somewhere if you want access to them after downgrade.  I also hope you have a good backup of your old 7.1.2 IOS prior to your move to 8.0.
    If you don't have an old 7.1.2 pre IOS8  backup stop now.
    Read  CAREFULLY.
