Calendar "forgets" to launch the file/application

I'm having a problem getting calendar to start an application or open a file at a specific time. I get the message pop up at the right time, but the soft launches ever.

Specifically, I have the cTivo app which allows me to transfer recorded shows to my Tivo Roamio on my Mac. I am planning the application runs, late at night when no one is watching the TV, so the load on the wifi and the Tivo won't then, we look at the TV.

I selects a date and time, then click on the "Alert" menu and select "Customize...". "In the pop up window that follows, I select"Open a file"and then in the following menu, I choose 'other '.... "and get a choose file dialog box. I choose the application, then select "at the time of the event." When the date / time specified arrives, I get a message, but the application ever starts.

Anyone can verify this behavior? Does anyone have a workaround or a solution?

Thank you!

A workflow schedule alarm will not work unless it is attached to a local calendar ("on my Mac"), instead of a network such as iCloud calendar.

  • Launching the Maps application from the browser

    I'm currently building in a small web application the ability to launch native maps app.

    This is a normal site, will be displayed in the browser, not a WebWorks app.

    It is pretty...

    Hello

    We have an integrated vCO 5.5.1 installation with vCAC 6.0.1. The installation worked very well. Recently, we encountered a problem where we were not able to run that any associated workflow vCAC. The following error is thrown " " "JDBC Hibernate data access exception: SQLException for SQL [?]; State SQL [null]; error code [0]; Cannot release the connection; "the nested exception is org.hibernate.exception.GenericJDBCException: cannot release the connection in vCO. Do not know what is happening with the vCO. Can someone help me on this? It's urgent!


    To resolve this problem, all plug-ins have been recharged and services were restarted. That has not helped.

    There is another issue that is to appear after that. We cannot launch the vCO Client. Fig. 1

    We are not able to access the following URL: https://<vCO-IP-Address>: 8281 Fig. 2

    We are able to access the configuration of the vCO page (https://<vCO-IP-Address>: 8283) and the application of the vCO page (https://<vCO-IP-Address>: 5480)

  • Why the files are stored on an external drive not appearing in the "other" classification on my iMac HD?

    I'm running OS X version 10.11.4 on an iMac, retina 5 K 27-inch/3.5 GHz Intel Core i5 with 24 GB RAM/1 TB HDD and I have had for about a year, although I migrate some files over my old machine, but most were on an external.  I have almost all my larger files on an external drive 2 TB - for the most part hi res .eps, .jpeg, .png.

    I run CleanMyMac 3 as a utility. When I saw recently that I had more than 600 GB of 'others' I decided I have to spend the day to clean my files and machine - and have therefore been sucked into this rabbit hole.

    After cleaning duplicate files, empty the caches, removing unused applications and clean the external hard drive, I have still 570 GB of "other".  When you click on the bar in their own my Mac, it gives you a list of what is included in each of the classifications of file storage.  I understand, including all Documents to plain text, PDF and even files .docx, ect...

    what I don't understand is why:

    1 .pages (documents created in the clean Apple program) are not classified with documents, rather than as 'other '.

    2. why each of my .eps files that are stored on an external drive also claim space on my Mac?  It would potentially be the preview images displayed in the Finder? And if so, why it store a snapshot of the same size as the actual file?

    AND, most importantly, I can recover some of the disk space consumed by the huge amount of .eps files?

    Thank you

    'CleanMyMac' is a scam and a frequent cause of instability and poor performance. Depending on which version you have, the developer's instructions may not completely uninstall. Please follow these instructions, then do as below.

    Back up all data before proceeding.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Agent.plist

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

    the contextual menu.*, a file can open with a selected item. If so, move the selected item to the trash. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Repeat with this line:

    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Agent

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    You may also delete one or more of these elements in the same way:

    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.helperTool.plist
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.volumeWatcher.plist
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Scheduler.plist

    Never install "CleanMyMac" or something like that.

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    B

    For the other category in the display of information storage, see this support article. If the display appears to be inaccurate, try to rebuild the Spotlight index.

    Empty the trash if you don't have it already done. If you use iPhoto, emptying his trash internal everything first:

    ▹ iPhoto empty the trash

    In pictures:

    ▹ Show of the recently deleted ▹ file delete all

    Do the same thing in other applications like Aperture, with an internal feature of the trash. Then, restart the computer. Temporarily, which will free up space.

    According to the documentation from Apple, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the boot volume (as shown in the Infolog) for normal operation, not the mythical 10%, 15% or any percentage. You also need enough space to allow the growth of the data over. There is little or no advantage in terms of performance to get more free space than the minimum Apple recommends. Storage space you'll never use is wasted space.

    See this support article for some easy ways to free up storage space. A common waste of space is old backups iTunes to mobile devices. As shown in this support article, select the devices tab in the iTunes preferences window, select the backup that you want to remove and click on delete the backups. Keep at least a backup of each device you use yet.

    You can use a tool such OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and discover what is take up space. You can also delete files with it, but not unless you don't know you know what you remove and that all data is stored safely. This means that you have several backups, not one. Note that CESO works with OS X 10.8 or later.

    Deletion of files inside a photo library or iTunes will damage the library. Such a library should be changed within the application that created it. It is the same for e-mail files.

    Go further than if the problem is not resolved by the steps above.

    ODS cannot see the whole file system when you run simply by double-clicking; He sees only the files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you must run it as root.

    Back up all the data now.

    Install the application in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it runs.

    Triple-click any where in the text line below on this page to select, then copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination.

    security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-

    Launch the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Paste in the Terminal window by pressing command + V. You will be asked for your login password.

    The application window opens behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will finally show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.

    I do not recommend that you make a habit of doing. Do not delete anything as root. If something should be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then remove by safer alternatives. If in doubt, leave it alone or ask for advice.

    When you are finished with the app, he quit and also to leave Terminal.
