reliability of cult of mac?

I wonder if someone can tell me if the "cult of mac" is a reliable place to download older Apple software from? Specifically, iWork?

I just moved to a "new to me" 2012 my 2006 dying iMac iMac. Running the Mavericks because El Capitan will not support CS6 which I still use (but that's another issue...). Can't seem to bring on my iWork, even though I copied Pref. and pref the user library. I do not have DVD, so I think it may have the old version of the trial?

CultofMac seems to be the only place where I can find the original "iWork09Trial.dmg". Hoping if I load that and move to 9.3 I can get Pages running again. Of course my Mac won't install it because it is a third party, but I can replace. It seems quite legitimate, but I don't want to corrupt my machine.

Any advice? Thank you.

I would highly recommend against downloading of Apple products (test or not) non-Apple servers. You can extend this to any software provider. If someone has injected malware in this downloadable software, and the hosting entity will not know, or don't care, you will be the tip of the spear.

The trial version of iWork ' 09 has no Apple servers to support it, or allow to convert of trialware by purchasing an activation code. It will install a file special trialware in a system location that you cannot neutralize without purchase through the Apple servers (that do not exist). If you actually run Yosemite or later, this version code very early will not work at all, or wrong. Bottomline: A lot more trouble than what it's worth. Avoid the evaluation version.

Recommendation. There is no free lunch. If you want the suite iWork ' 09, just buy an Apple iWork ' 09 DVD Amazon Canada for < cdn="" $40.="" once="" installed,="" you="" can="" apply="" the=""> iWork 9.3 update servers Apple to bring the iWork relevant applications DVD ' 09 to their latest revisions, intended for the most compatible with Yosemite and El Capitan.

  • Reliable backup for Mac?

    Hi all

    I wish I had a solution for online backup for my mac, since I don't trust so that site comments more that increasingly are biased, I would rather ask my other consumers based on their experience!

    What are the reliable online backup solutions for Mac users out there?

    Features, I would love to find:

    -Backup crypted

    -Files/backups scanned and protect with antivirus and antimalware systems

    -Reliable in the sense that it is 200% of course, proven and protected that they will not share or disclose my data and they have secure servers

    -If possible, accessible from a Windows computer in case I need it

    I was thinking about everything that I wanted to put backup password protected DMG files (which are encrypted right?) and then upload to Google Drive, since at least Google servers should be online forever almost, but you are limited to 15 GB per account, anyone has any experience with the help of Google?

    Thank you!!

    The problem with online backup killer, is it will take perhaps as long as three days for any transfer out or or on your Mac. It is simply not practical.

  • [Power Mac G5] Type of liquid cooling system?

    Y at - it anyway how to determine type of LCS just by looking at the case?

    We have old school Power Mac G5 DP 2, 7GHz (early 2005) we use for editing (well, for the last two years, he's right there and no one wants to touch this old piece of...). They will throw him in the year, and since I was take care of him for a while, I thought I'd take home when they do and use it as a backup machine for the data of my and my wife. I would like the max memory, put a few large hard drives (and small SSD, but there seems to be a lot of problems with this) and run the Linux command (more problems).

    But first, I have to clean the machine and look at the State of it. What particularly concerns me is the LCS (DP 2, 7GHz I) - these things have been prone to leaks and what I found there are at least three revisions of the LCS - second of them made by Panasonic seems to be the most reliable. I can't look inside, deeply, because it must be ready to use at least for another 3-4 months, I can do is to open the case and remove the front fan and look outside the heater.

    So this brings me to my question: Y at - it anyway to determine the type of LCS just by looking at the case?

    Thank you...

    Apparently, there were two models more prone to leaks than others, although still very rare. See this http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g5/faq/powermac-g5-liquid-cooling-infos-fuites-issues.html

    The damage inflicted by a system of flight are very serious, and it is almost impossible to hide or completely clean. As soon as you open the side panel on the Power Mac, you will easily be able to tell if this unit experianced a problem.

  • Sierra / Mac Adware Cleaner

    Since I've upgraded to the new OSX on my iMac, what an advertising program keeps popping up whenever I log on my computer. I tried to remove it, but it always comes back.

    It is very inconvenient for my mac was going well until I upgraded. What is c? And once I left the application a pop-up ad appears in the right corner.

    How can I get rid of these?

    That Mac has been affected by "CleanMyMac" that must be removed. Remove it, then follow the applicable recovery procedure below.

    'Cleaning' apps are scams. Extract of effective defenses against software malware and other threats:

    • Never install a product that claims to 'clean up', 'speed', 'optimize', 'boost' or 'speed up' your Mac; to "wash", "tune" or to make it "brilliant". These allegations are absurd.
      • These products are marketed very aggressively. They are all scams.
      • They usually operate on the erroneous premise that Mac builds 'junk' that must be systematically 'cleaned' for optimum performance.
      • Trial versions of these programs are successful because they provide more instant gratification of free space on the disk.
      • This increased space is the result of irreversible destruction of files, programs or operating system components normally protected against accidental tampering or removal. The eventual result will be the reliable operation, poor performance and random crashes that may not become evident for months, or even years after their use, when updates of programs or OS X are finally released.
      • Memory "cleaners" that bypass the work of OS x memory management algorithms by purging the memory contents inactive for mass storage, which can only result in performance degradation and accelerated the hardware failure.

    To remove 3 CleanMyMac itself, use its Uninstall module, followed the following additional steps:

    • Delete the file ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Scheduler.plist

      • To access this file, copy and Paste the following line in the menu to go to Finder > go to folder...

    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/

      • Locate the following file and drag it to the Trash:

    com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Scheduler.plist

    • Then, open  (menu Apple) > System Preferences > users and groups > login items.
    • Select the item of Menu of CleanMyMac3
    • Click on the [-] (button less).
    • Restart your Mac.

    Beware that reinstall OS X has no effect on deletion CleanMyMac or reverse the damage, it is able to inflict on a system. To recover from the effects of using it to change the OS X software, you need and essential files you need, follow the applicable recovery procedure below:

    • If you have a backup that you created before using CleanMyMac, now is the time to use it. To boot OS X RecoveryTime Machine in Mac OS X utility screen, select restore from a Time Machine backup. Choose a date prior to the installation of CleanMyMac.
    • If you don't have a backup previous use of CleanMyMac, create one now. To do this read to use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac.
      • The recovery procedure require that you erase the Mac using OS X Recovery, and then create a new user account whose content will be empty. You can then use Setup Assistant to migrate your essential documents, including photos, music, products of work and other essential files.
      • To erase and install OS X read How to reinstall OS X on your Mac.
        • Follow step 2 to completely erase the internal memory of the CMA: disk utility (El Capitan): delete a volume.
        • Then follow the procedure to move your content to a new Mac.
        • When asked how you want to transfer your data, select transfer from a Mac, Time Machine backup or boot disk.
        • Under Select the information to transfer, select only your old user account and do not select 'Applications', 'Computer and Network Settings' or 'other files and folders. Deselect these choices.
      • After using Setup Assistant, you will need to reinstall the essential software that you might need, once more without forgetting to install the software from their original sources and by omitting all non-essential software.
      • "Non-essential software" is a broad category that includes, but is not limited to the products 'antivirus' third party 'cleaning' and 'maintenance '.
  • Open migration to Active Directory directory Windows vs Mac

    OK, so I help my old school to their IT needs, because they do not have a person hired for this role.

    Currently, they have a center where the staff use computers based on Windows 10 10 (systems of Core 2 Duo, especially assembled; all about 3 years) connected to a Windows 2008 Server (from Dell; about a year). As the institution wishes to expand the computers available to their staff (from 90), my suggestion was to move to Mac (probably 11 '' MBAs), with a MacBook Pro 15 "is the duty of the server.

    This migration can be done in one shot and would happen progressively (probably MBAs purchased each year for the next four years, 20-25).

    The current configuration is that there is a local + Admin user configured on each of the 10 Windows PC - based, with all personnel having access to the user not local administrator.

    In order to facilitate the management, I would like to move to the logons on the network, as we begin our migration to a Mac OS environment.

    Should we configure AD on Windows Server and bind it as MBAs, and when to buy us, with the final being the MBP 15 "for server-buying functions, or is it possible we can get the MBP 15" now and use Open Directory and binding the existing 10 10 Windows-PC with the macOS Server?

    NOTE: The school operates Google Apps, and all employees have a Google Apps account with a custom domain name.

    You can't link PCs to Open Directory without using 3rd - Party (page). In addition, depending on the operating system will not work reliable? You'd have to trial it first. Beyond bond and provide a home folder there will be nothing else. No management, no policies etc Open Directory to your PC.

    Support way to achieve this is to use Active Directory and complete with OD to manage your estate of mac only. Again, you can apply GPOS for Mac without 3rd - Party help which can be very expensive.

    Not that it's something that you would consider - although you could do? It may be preferable to go ' all the mac "If your intention is to switch to Mac OS. If your PC using the software that is available only for PCs consider using virtual machines on your Mac to keep this aspect of the school.

  • iOS 10 connection for broken Mac

    With iOS 9, I used to process the photos on my iPhone by capturing images running on Mac OS x 10.6. Since I've upgraded to iOS 10, it doesn't work anymore: when I connect my iPhone to the Mac via the USB cable, iPhone asks me if I should trust the computer (which I confirmed), but then Capture of Image tells me that I have to enter the password on the iPhone, because it is locked. However, there is no dialogue of password on the iPhone, and I'm not either the lock screen. In fact, I can't access (and transfer) photos from the iPhone to the Mac more.

    I also had problems with Windows. At the time when I got iOS 9 and wanted to copy photos from iPhone to a PC Windows 7, I have them connected via a USB cable and then saw the iPhone as an external drive. When I tried with iOS 10 installed, the iPhone was not recognized. However, after several attempts to disconnect and reconnect and connect ANOTHER iPhone to PC and unplugged the PC finally showed the iPhone in the Explorer window.

    Thus, in both cases, it seems that something has changed in the way the iPhone allows an external computer to access its data. Note that in each attempt, I * fact * tell iPhone to trust the computer. The iPhone obviously noticed that there is a link being established, but it didn't give permission.

    How can I, with iOS 10, access (download) the photos from my iPhone with reliability, without saving until iCloud?

    Short update OS X to at least 10.9.5, (or installing Windows 7 with BootCamp or in a Virtual Machine and using Windows to extract the photos) you don't have.

  • Installation 10.11.6 El Capitan with 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on old Mac Pro 4.2 multiboot?

    Looking for savvy here advice...  I have an old Mac Pro 4.2 (cheese grater) that runs Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  It is a wonderful workhorse machine, who served me tirelessly for many years.  It is obviously older and slower, but works very well.  I love 10.6.8.  If Apple ever updated the Mac Pro line (I know, probably not... sigh...), I'll buy one and replace this machine.  Until then, I keep doing this work.

    This machine is a beast, has been upgraded with internal hard drives 1 TB three (he also got a couple internal HDs inherited from 750 and 500 MB used for storage).  I have also several external 1-4 to, hip, FW800 drives too.  A host of storage, of course, and should be a lot of options to start on several systems.

    I am generally satisfied with 10.6.8 on this machine, although there are obvious limits to that.  I would get one or two operating systems newer on it, pick-and-choose between them according to the needs, but I absolutely want to/need to preserve the ability to initiate and run 10.6.8 systematically as my operating system on the day the day, at least for now.  Maybe I'll warm to one of the others on this machine eventually, but 10.6.8 must remain usable, install a newer OS on other readers may not nerve there.

    On a year-and-a-half ago, I took a race to install 10.10.3 Yosemite on one of the internal disks.  This doesn't quite work.  I moved, sniffed Yosemite everywhere, don't really like it a lot and went to restart and him switch back to 10.6.8 for a bit.  Initially, it was impossible (from less than I expected, would be the same old process, I have always used, via system preferences > startup disk).  You can read the details of this experience here and more here if you are interested.  This latest attempt to get Yosemite on this machine was a very negative experience.  Yosemite is still there on an internal HD, but I tried not to boot on it since then.

    Now I take another look at this.  What is the engine now, is that I want to update my iPad Mini 3 iOS 10.  But that (update of an iDevice iOS 10) requires iTunes 12.5.1.  And iTunes 12.5.1 requires Mac OS X 10.9.5 or newer - it won't work with 10.6.8.  I'm looking for my options.

    Right now, I have three large internal HDs: HD #1, 2 # HD and HD #3, each 1 TB.

    HD #1 has 10.10.3 Yosemite on this.  I started from this time and have not resumed since.

    HD #2 has 10.6.8 Snow Leopard top.  This is my main operating system and startup of daily drive.

    HD #3 is nothing special about it.

    Although HD #1's Yosemite about that, I have only started from this disc once and hesitate to go back, at least until I can get a way easy and reliable to restart off HD #2.

    I understand that I can also get 10.11.6 El Capitan.  I thought that installing on HD #3.  That sounds like a reasonable to add option, but again, I want to make sure it won't cause problems to switch back to start off HD #2 in Snow Leopard (such as installation of Yosemite on HD #1).

    What is the best way for me to go about safely - preserve the option to start easily in 10.6.8 on HD #2?

    Thanks for the help!

    If you start or restart now Option (Alt) key and calls the Startup Manager, you should be given the choice at the start of any boot disk OS X on any of the readers.
