Energy Saver scripting « Managing OS X - 0 views

  •  
    Here's a version of a script we use on all our machines in an attempt to reduce energy usage with a minimum of visible impact on users. Our machines are set to not sleep during the day. This script runs hourly, and if it's after 7pm and the machine has been idle for 20 minutes or more, it tries to sleep the machine if someone is logged in, or shut it down if no-one is logged in. The machine is also set to automatically startup or wake at 6am M-F. The net result is that most of our desktop machines go to sleep or shutdown a little after 7pm each weeknight and wake up at 6am each week morning, and our users are none the wiser.

|| TrajiklyHip - Blog ||: A Fix for Time Machine's Backup Failure - 0 views

  • To get Time Machine going again, you need to remove the errant files with the following steps: Ensure your backup device is turned on and connected to your computer (wirelessly or wired, it doesn't matter) Turn off Time Machine using the big button in Time Machine preferences. NOTE: I did not execute this step and was still able to fix Time Machine. Make sure the backup volume (which is just part of the backup drive) is mounted to your desktop/Finder. You may have to initiate (and subsequently cancel) a Time Machine backup process in order to see the drive on the desktop or in Finder. Access your backup volume in Finder (it should be named "Backup of your-computer-name..." or something similar) and double-click into the "Backups.backupdb" folder. Next, click into the "your-computer-name" folder. You should see a bunch of folders with dates. These are all the dates corresponding to days you ran a successful backup. At the bottom of the folder listing will be one or two things you need to move to the trash. You may see only one or both of these, but delete the file that starts with a date (it should be the date the backup failure started) and ends in ".inProgress." Also delete a file named "Latest" if it exists. Return to Time Machine preferences and turn Time Machine on. Remember, I was successful without performing this step. Initiate a backup using the Time Machine drop-down in the menu bar or wait until the next scheduled backup run. A final but important step, be patient. Time Machine may sit in "preparing" mode for a while. It's important to at least let it run for an hour or so to see if the process will continue actually writing files to your backup volume.

Intego Washing Machine 2: Cleans up files created by web browsers and other programs th... - 0 views

  • How Washing Machine works   Clean up files from Internet programs Washing Machine looks for five types of files for web browsers, Internet applications, and other programs that store cookies, caches or history files. You can search by program or by category, and clean any program's files with a single click. Use Secure Cleaning to wipe files so even data recovery programs can't get them back.   Edit and delete cookies Washing Machine has special features for working with Cookies, those bits of information that web sites put on your computer to track your movements. View, edit or delete cookies from any of a number of Internet programs.   Use Cleanlists to clean up after the programs you use most Washing Machine lets you set up Cleanlists - like iTunes playlists - with the items you want to clean regularly. Keep several Cleanlists for the programs you want to clean up after and others for programs you only use occasionally. And you can even make Smart Cleanlists to let you clean items that meet certain conditions.   Schedule your Washing Machine's clean-ups Choose what to clean, and when, and Washing Machine will run its cleaning routines automatically whenever you want. You can set a number of schedules, for individual items, or for Cleanlists, each at the frequency or time you choose.

Technology Solution for Vending Machines - 0 views

  •  
    A few years ago, managing vending machines was seen as a tricky task because you could never know when your vending machine needs to be filled. Few companies saw opportunity in this difficulty and gifted the M2M market, a middleware that could help people manage vending machines remotely using GPRS technology.

MacCast Forum > Time machine error? - 0 views

  • If Time Machine gets disrupted for any reason during a backup (ie. hard drive unplugged, power failure) it seems to get stuck. Occasionally it gets stuck for reasons only known to Leopard. Its a known bug on the Apple discussion boards. What has worked for me is the following:1. ensure hard drive is powered on and connected to computer2. turn off time machine3. go to your backup volume, backups.backupd, "your computer name", and then select and trash "In Progress" or "Latest" (it will be the last one in your backup folder listing)4. turn Time Machine back on5. either wait for the next backup cycle, or what I do to be sure things are working right is force an immediate backup (control-click on TimeMachine, select "backup now").

    Have no fear. SuperDuper v2.6.2 is here, it's compatible with Snow Leopard, and it's up to 2x faster! SuperDuper is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use, and SuperDuper's built-in scheduler makes it trivial to back up automatically. It's the perfect complement to Time Machine under Leopard and Snow Leopard, allowing you to store a bootable backup alongside your Time Machine volume-and it runs beautifully on both Intel and Power PC Macs! SuperDuper's interface confirms all your actions in simple, clear language to ensure that the end result is exactly what you intended. Take a look, and click for additional screen shots!

How-To: Use Time Machine Over a Network - 9 views

    I love Time Machine for its simplicity and the fact that it's free. Apple did the right thing in creating a backup utility that was integrated into the OS and was actually useful.

Allow non-administrator users to add or remove printers | Mac Admin Corner - 3 views

  •  
    Apple added a "feature" to Leopard which restricts non administrator users from managing printers on their Macs. While this is desired behavior on a public machine such as a classroom, it is a problem for single user machines such as faculty, staff and 1:1 deployments. By default in Leopard, a non-admin user can not add or remove printers. They are also not able to hold or resume a print job. This is a problem if you want users to be able to add printers themselves, especially if they're bringing their laptops home.

SuperDuper, Time Machine and Bulletproof Backups - 0 views

  •  
    My advice for a good backup strategy? Keep it simple. Keep it safe. Don't stress the details. The "you should backup regularly" argument needs little coaxing. Everybody "knows" they should backup the problem is they don't. A backup plan is only as good as its followthrough - which is why Time Machine is so epic. It backs up every hour for you. You don't even know it's running but you hear the hard drive spinning, and watch your system slow down for a few minutes.
