If my phone is installing an update, while plugged into my MacBook, is there a progress bar for this somewhere? Like this is the Finder view: I can't seem to find how much of my life I've devoted to sitting in this coffee shop right now. edit: After an hour I just ran it directly from my phone and it downloaded the update and installed it in about 10 minutes. Just another 10.15 thing I guess. follow that camel!! fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Nov 4, 2019 |

Maybe that will change when it goes live, but as of now it does not work. D4 as of now is PC and console only. OW2 will not be on Mac. That announcement had me looking at building a gaming PC to sit net to my current Mac instead of buying a new Mac.

I have a MacBook running Mojave Xcode wouldn't update, so I removed it from Applications thinking I could just re-install it from the store. I actually did that to fix the same problem a couple updats ago Now the app store thinks I already have it and will only let me update. HOW THE gently caress

Like this is the Finder view: If you update through iTunes/macOS, it downloads the entire iOS setup file, which is like 4 GB or something now. If you update on the phone, it downloads a delta update which is usually only a couple hundred MB for point updates.

Jose Oquendo posted:I'm still half asleep right now, but nitsuga is right. I wouldn't use configuration profiles for software deployment. Cheers for you and nitsuga, the problem's not with the packaging/installation but more the philosophy behind it. I was about putting software keys in plain text and blasting it across our environments in case someone ever installed it. A frank exchange of ideas later, we do find out that running a jamf policy also instantly sticks down a configuration and i'm voted down from a position of no software keys in configuration policies. Now to figure out a way of stopping personal appleIDs from remote locking MDM devices! Any knowledge about federating apple IDs in here?

I was about putting software keys in plain text and blasting it across our environments in case someone ever installed it. I have a little experience with that too. Sounds like you’ll need to get set up with Apple Business Manager, but once you do that you can federate from Azure AD: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/apple-business-manager/mdm1c9622977/web I know there’s some trickery you can do to prevent Activation Lock, so that might cover Remote Locks too, but I’m not sure. There is the Jamf Pro Adminstrator’s Guide, which might give you some info on what kinds of payloads are available for Configuration Profiles: https://www.jamf.com/resources/product-documentation/jamf-pro-administrators-guide/ Essentially though, I think both of the things you’re looking for are doable. You just need to find the right combo of things for your company.

Years ago, when I was dumber and owned a MacBook Air, I downloaded CleanMyMac 2 bullshit software. I quickly learned the error of my ways and took what I thought were the appropriate steps to remove it from my computer and clean out any folders/files hidden. Fast forward to 2014 and I replace the Air with a MacBook Pro. I migrate everything to the new computer and everything seems to go hunky dory. Fast forward to 2019 and I start getting notifications on my MBP about how it’s time to Clean My Mac. Clicking on this notification appears to do nothing. It just sits there until I dismiss it. When I go into the Notifications settings in System Preferences, I see CleanMyMac 2 Helper in the list of apps with notification privileges. Now try as I might, I can’t find this CleanMyMac 2 Helper anywhere on my system. It’s clearly there, or something is, but I can’t root it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It’s a 2013 rMBP on v 10.14.6 of Mojave.

n*thing, I've been running a phiole locally for years, works great. Lately, I've setup a VPN on the free AWS tier. About to migrate the pi to the cloud because its easier to manage and higher avail.

This FAQ lists the location of the helper files: https://macpaw.com/support/cleanmymac-3/knowledgebase/cleanmymac-helper-tool If that doesn't work, according to this Apple thread and the company support site, you may need to re-install the software and then use it's uninstall function to remove everything cleanly.

My wife wants to watch Chernobyl, but she's an animal lover, so she can't watch episode 4 of that. I have already ripped the bluray and want to trim out all that kind of stuff for her. However, the bluray rip is like 22 GB, which is how much space I have on my HD. I have it ripped to my NAS, but iMovie won't use that, it has to be a USB drive in a certain format. Is there a free movie editor program that I can use my NAS with, to just trim out these scenes? I'm not looking to burn it back on a disk or anything after. I'm just going to put it in Kodi.

You could downsample the file using Handbrake before editing it. Editing a network-hosted video file, especially one of that size sounds kind of painful though, I'm not sure anything's going to make it easy.

Anyone know what to do about some music not transferring to the iPhone through the new finder interface? It just says that the tracks or albums couldn't be found. They are in the same format, etc. as the other albums that did transfer.

It's just getting really bad, and they've forgotten that there were a lot of music nerds who bought into the ipod back when and have been sticking with Apple ever since because of that.

I ended up using Openshot to edit a Handbrake downsampled 2GB version of the episode. The episode went from 61 minutes to 39 minutes, haha. (I also got rid of the cow execution at the beginning of the episode.)

I have a FileVault question / problem. A friend at work asked me to update their late 2012 15inch MBP. She said she never used it much and wanted to maybe start using it more. I had her buy an SSD and more ram for it because those are the quickest fixes. No big deal right? Well.... it doesn't look like she has updated it since 2012 either. I went to update the machine to Catalina before I installed the SSD and Catalina wouldn't install because it said that FileVault was encrypting the drive. I thought that was weird because I didn't turn it on and I know she didn't either. The thing is I've had the machine plugged and running for 24+ hours now and FileVault is still running! The gauge is moving so it seems to be making progress but holy poo poo is it slow. So questions, Can I stop it? I don't see any option to cancel the process so I assume not. Doing a quick estimation it looks like its going to take at least 2 more days to finish. Second is it really possible that its been trying to encrypt this drive for 7 years now but hasn't been able because she doesn't use the machine enough to let it finish? Shes copied over a lot of pictures and movies from her phone over the years too so I imagine that FileVault is trying to play catch up. Do I just have to let it run? It says it has over a day left still... My mind is a little blown if FV has been trying to run for 7 years lol.

I'm a little gun shy because she does have quiet a few things saved on there.

If you haven’t already, use this time to make a separate super duper clone to a new external drive before doing anything else. My new policy is I won’t touch a friend/family members machine until they buy an external drive and we do a verified clone first.

You are right and I would make a clone but I'm leery of making a clone while FV is running. I have to imagine it could jack up the clone.

Regarding Apple Music: Why oh why did they remove the “view album art” option from the “Songs” tab? Why does making a playlist suck so much rear end?
