Language. Interesting error. Nice solution by Carolyn. I have never seen this personally. I would have suspected a corrupted font for the designers that would have an issue with this.
Might be a corrupted preference file (.plist)
Go to ~/Library/Preferences
Move the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac.
In \. This would be very irrating for photographers or anyone who deals with lots of photos. Good work Dreaz!
In case anyone else has noticed this issue, I found the answer. It’s a Lion issue, so delete the following plist:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview/
Pirate Bay to abandon .torrent files for magnet links. This just goes to show that the more you try to limit access to information, the more defenses get built to protect it. Now instead of needing a server, it can be run on a usb stick. Looks like free files will always have a future. Should we pay for things we find useful? Yes, and I do. It is also true that many people cannot pay things. In the US we currently have 50 million people in poverty. Does that mean we condemn them to a questionable existence?
Sleeping problem with OS X Lion?: Apple Support Communities. Good solution to this problem, but a better solution is what hoongern suggested.
As has been noted by a few people here and there, running “pmset -g assertions” from the
terminal will let you know what is preventing your OS from sleeping
It ranges from file sharing to printer sharing to remote SSH users, etc.
Also, the conditions which prevent a computer from sleeping can vary depending on whether the computer is on AC, or running on battery, which is why some people have solved their issue by unplugging their computer first.
I also made a small app to help with diagnosing the problem, if anyone is interested. Source code is provided. If you don’t trust it, just use “pmset -g assertions”.
Hope Apple fixes it soon.
Mac OSX Lion File Sharing Connection Failed – ryanarmstrong.net.au. This makes perfect sense. I bet the home folder was saved as an example and not as a default. Probably a miscommunication here.
.DS_Store — Rixstep Industry Watch. Everything you always wanted to know about .DS_Store files but were afraid to ask. This becomes an issue when you share a fileshare with non Mac users. They view these files that are hidden by default on the Mac.
Syncany – Open-source file synchronization and filesharing application. This is interesting. If you like Dropbox and JungleDisk and have a Linux or Windows system you might like this software. They say they have a Mac version, but said that is the last priority. Still seems like a comparison between all these services is in order.
Almost 2 years later and The Pirate Bay is still alive and kicking. How is this possible?
