• If a network of neighbors appear on my list of WiFi in the about this Mac, should I be concerned about security?

  I am trying to solve a network problem.  In the process, I was browsing the WiFi networks listed in the report of the system slot on my Mac.  I found all my networks expected but also found a network I won't name My Next Door neighbour.  Although I've seen this network on my computer when you connect to one of my networks (and thought it was simply a neighbor whose own network was narrow and strong), I was surprised to find it in a list on the WiFi system report page.

  I don't know if I'm too react or should deal with this neighbor might somehow be surfed on my internet account and/or have access to sensitive information on my computer.  My network is secure with WPA2 Personal.  So the neighbor.

  Thanks for any idea that you can provide.

  In the report of the system, the network of my Next Door neighbor is listed under the current information network or other local Wi - Fi networks?

  Current must be the network you are on, and it should be your own. If my Next Door neighbor is under another heading, it's OK. This means that it is available, but you are not connected to it. On my Mac, the other category is all of my neighbors, about 10 of them. Other is like all networks not selected under the Airport icon in the menu bar, they are of no interest because you are not connected to them. They are like the list of the radio stations on your radio, they are listed because you're within range of them, but they can't touch you. Unless you are connected.

• Should I be concerned about javaws.exe 1000 names of the running Image?

  Do you not think that this issue can cause some hidden problems or degradation of system term longer than I know not?

  It is strange that this issue has actually benefited from operation of my machine:

  About 5 minutes after each start, restart or Log-off/log-on, jsched.exe * 32 will start javaws.exe, up to 15 000 names of Image construction in the Task Manager process tab... Physical memory will approach 100% before displays a window of error message or a warning sound is heard. Then additional Image names and high physical memory percentages begin to decline... It takes a total of 4 to 5 minutes to complete...

  Subsequently, the Task Manager shows my 'normal' processes and 'normal' number the CPU usage , BUT it shows a percentage of 30% LESS of physical memory than before... AND CPU core temperatures run about 10% lower.

  I've been running my machine this way for the last two weeks, 10 to 12 hours a day... I have noticed no ill effects - I can still run several programs, browsers etc with the added benefit of not having to deal with the closing and reopening of one of my 64-bit programs to "slow down" after a few hours...

  I can prevent the foregoing by clicking jsched.exe and complete the selection process or by unchecking the box for Java Platform SE Auto Updater tab System Configuration startup...

  I am also reluctant to take the Java update that is available, because it could "solve" the problem of multiple javaws.exe... the few minutes it takes to do it's thing doesn't bother me as long as my machine continues to work very well...

  This link goes to a page on one of my blogs where I document the matter further... Weird Windows stuff .

  The picture shows the the Task Manager, before, during and after javaws.exe did her thing:

• My concerns about installing ESXi on a USB Flash Disk

  Hello!

  There was a lot of messages about installing esxi hypervisor on a usb flash drive, what I've done and I think it's ok because there's no need to waste expensive disks for installation of a very light bone

  But I have a few questions and concerns in this regard. appreciate your answers.

  1 - first of all I can't find my DL380 G7 Server internal usb. can someone give me a link or a picture where he is exactly?

  2 - Suppose that after boot completely the host, something happens on the usb drive. If nothing happens? I think there should be nothing to worry about, because the hypervisor has been loaded into the memory of the server. Am I wrong?

  3 - my concern is to have backup and the ability to restore that very quickly. some time in the past I had a single esxi host. I used powercli and commands appropriate for configuration backup host (I think that the command was something like esx-cfgbackup or like that).

  so if the flash has been corrupted, I would replace it with another and restored the settings that

  but now I host 4 esxi and vcenter. should I worry about this? How should I have backup? I know that SQL backup database of vcenter and its certificate is sufficient to have a backup of the settings of vcenter but on those who are just to vcenter and which are on the host? just want to say, what should I do to be able to replace a faulty usb disk (esxi is on it) with a new and all get back to work as it was?

  Sorry if the questions are easy to answer. I'm just a beginner

  and sorry for my bad English

  Assuming that I don't have the license for the host profiles, what should I do?

  It depends on the complexity of the configuration of the host. You can back up the configuration of the individual hosts or just reconfigure reinstalled once. In a larger environment, you'd probably for example the hosts scripted installation.

  Because the server vCenter Server usually runs as a virtual machine, it is a good idea to do an image based backup (using backup vDR or 3 rd-party applications), and - in the case where you use a dedicated SQL Server - certainly back up the database. For the backup and restoration of vCenter Server, you can also take a look at http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1023985.

  In the rare cases where an SD card fails, you can always vMotion virtual machines to another host and then reinstall the host with a new SD card.

• About this mac shows twice as much audio I have in iTunes

  I get errors that my boot drive is almost full on my macbook air relatively new (~ 4 months). When I went to study, I found that about this mac storage tab showed 42,96 audio GB 36,33 GB of apps, 33,42 GB else and insignificant small photos, movies, and backups.

  I'm not sure about 'the other', but the Apps and the Audio seem that they shouldn't take much more space. I'm not sure of what should be automatically installed programs on this macbook, but I downloaded additional applications less than 5, so I don't know if it should take 1/4 of my disk space. In addition, I wouldn't have too much audio that is not music, and when I go into iTunes it says I have about 19 GB of music.

  Can someone tell me what is the source of this problem? I don't know that I should not have problems of storage on a machine this new.

• about this mac > storage reports my "movies" I think

  Im working on my MBA Yosemite 10.10.5

  When I use the "about this mac > storage ' it show 80 GB of 'movies'"

  However, I see only about 8 GB of files of actual film in the folder 'movies '.

  I don't think I have 72 GB of additional movie in the hard disk files.  is it wrong? is there a way I can use the finder to find all these 80GB... There are so many file extensions that could be considered a film or video

  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.

  When Time Machine backs up a Mac laptop, some free space will be used to make a snapshots the, who are backups of deleted files recently. The space occupied by the local snapshots is declared as available by the Finder and should be considered as such. In the view of storage of the information system, snapshots appear them as backups. The snapshots are deleted automatically when they expire or when free space becomes less than a certain level. You don't need to usually and should not, remove snapshots them yourself. If you have followed the bad advice to disable snapshots the running a shell command, you may have ended up with a large amount of data in the other category. Ask for instructions in this case.

  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.

• 138 GB of movies 'about this Mac' show, but virtually no show of movies in "Finder."

  My "about this Mac" shows Go 138 picked up by movies, yet when I search films in the Finder, there is only a handful, would explain only a fraction of the 138 GB.  I checked the iTunes account and could not find any large storage either. I run OS X version 10.11.3 on a 2010 Macbook pro and my 500 GB SATA is almost full. This triggered off by checking the 138 GB volume... How can I find more info on the 138 GB?

  The program that generates the display has a bug inside and should not be used.  Often a re-indexing of Spotlight will correct:

• HP envy 15-u111dx 360 x: no one knows the reason for this noise?

  I opened my first hp envy 15-u111dx 360 x last week. After a day of use, I realized that the laptop is decently loud "ticking" noise. It does not sound entirely mechanical, more as a noise type modem cable except worse. It comes from the right side of the base of the laptop near where is the LED on the hard drive. I returned it today in Exchange for a laptop brand new of the same model. It makes the noise as well. I'm paranoid, either there is a problem with most laptops. No to geeksquad guys had never heard this noise before. It is NOT the fan. It is closer to the sound of a hard drive is no exception because it is not a pattern. It only happens during tasks and the heavier workload the stronger and more frequent noise becomes. So this led me and workers to buy better believe that's a bad treatment. This notebook is an i7 with 12 GB of ram so I am very appreciative of this incredible machine but this noise makes me a bit tired of this laptop. Is it a bad sound or each i7 makes noises? Hard disks make this noise? All comments are appreciated unless you say it could be the fan, because it is not. The fan is the other side of the laptop. Thank you.

  Hello @schmittycity,

  Thank you for your quick response!

  From what you have said on the Geek Squad, I don't think that it is a normal sound of the unit.  The only moving parts of your laptop that can be the cause of this noise, it's the hard drive, the fan and the heat sink.  Remove the cover to replace a hard drive or memory, with HP parts, should not void the warranty, as long as there is no damage seen the hardware or the lid.  You can also check to make sure that there are no loose screws.

  If the noise is abnormal, the best solution may be to return the device, or contact HP as previously posted.

  I hope this helps!

  Have a great weekend!
