• How do you remove older backups (up to a certain date) time machine under Mountain Lion?

  My time machine is full and I want to delete older backups up to a point. How can I do this? In addition, time new machine will save everything that is on the computer right now, including the operating system?

  For guidance on how high do the, read http://pondini.org/TM/C4.html'

  You store your data on the same hard disk that is using Time Machine for backups?

  If you aren't that can cause Time Machine to have difficulties to do housework to free up disk space for new backups.

  It is also a bad idea to do as Time Machine will not be able to back up this data. So it is not protected by a backup.

• Mountain Lion Vs Mavericks (local sync services)

  Greetings!

  I'm currently under Mountain Lion. I would use the last Safari and have places works again in iPhoto. I understand that this requires upgrading at least Mavericks. I read elsewhere on this forum that will disable sync services local to the calendars between my 5s (also running iOS 9.2.1) iPhone and my MacBook Pro. However, according to Wikipedia (accessed today) local sync services have been reactivated in Mavericks 10.9.3 then (possibly and if all goes well);  ID is 10.9.5.

  I really want to know the truth about it, and if the local sync is always possible with the Mavericks (as if it isn't I'll save me the effort of ad time to upgrade at all).

  Thank you in advance...

  Unless you previously downloaded the installer from the App Store, Mavericks and Yosemite are no longer available.

• Cannot access the options of color management for HP 6700 Mac OS 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion)

  Hello.

  I have the HP Officejet 6700 Premium e-all-in-one, and I can't find any way to access the color management options.

  The printer is attached (Wi - Fi) to my iMac Mac OS 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion).

  I want to correct a magenta cast for the photos I printed.  I had the problem of magenta-cast in Lightroom and use Preview to print the photos, so now I want to work with color profiles in Photoshop Elements.

  Photoshop Elements is recommended I have 'disable color management in the printer Preferences dialog box.

  However, I am not able to find for the 6700 color management preferences in settings under Mountain Lion:

  Not sub (Apple) > System Preferences > print & Scan.

  Not sub (HP utility) > Open Embedded Web Server.

  Not sub (HP utility) > the printer settings.

  Non-print preview dialog.

  I can't find any clear directions in the online help (HP or elsewhere) that I've read so far.

  Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply and the screen shot.

  The first thing I want to do you is to reset the printing system.

  Then add the printer, however when it by adding not just click on the name of printers, click Add printer or a scanner. Make sure that the 'use' is set to the printer and not Airprint.
  If it is displayed as Airprint, you will be missing feautres compared to the actualy printers driver.

• VMWare Fusion 5 Mountain Lion upgrade question

  I recently updated my MacBook Pro to Mountain Lion, and my current version of Fusion is 3.1.3 I know does not work under Mountain Lion.

  Our IT Department have downloaded Fusion 5 today, and I've been subject to intall it is when I read the instructions noted that I should have closed VM and not suspended.

  My problem is that when I use my VM, I suspended it when not in use to speed things up. However, I know more that if I stopped it the last time I used it.

  Is there anyway to check if it stops and if not is there anyway that I can close it down without perform the merge.

  What will happen if I was going to come and upgraded to Fusion 5?

  Your help would be much appreciated.

  Woody can have a better answer, but here's my brute force suggestion:

  (1) copy (not a time machine) virtual machine offshore on an external drive as a backup.

  2) switch to Fusion 5

  (3) to start the virtual machine and see what happens

  It's not being sarcastic... it might very well work.

Generally, the experienced users erasing the hard drive and do a clean install from scratch at least once a year or every time that the installation of a major upgrade of the OS. Well sure doing so also means that you need to maintain regular and several backups.

  Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will boot Mac running Snow Leopard or earlier. He cannot start Mac that came with Lion or later preinstalled, however, DW will work on these models.

  Suggestions for OS X maintenance

  OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are supposed to take place on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Maintenance scripts that are run at the beginning AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep). If this isn't the case, then a great solution is to download and install a shareware like Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacronor Anacron utility that will automate the maintenance regardless of whether activity if the computer is off or asleep.  Dependence on third-party utilities to run periodic maintenance scripts has been significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have little or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later version, and must not be installed.

  OS X automatically defrags files smaller than 20 MB in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files it little need to defragment the hard drive.

  Under no circumstances should you install operating MacPaw or ZeoBit software (CleanMyMac/CleanMyDrive or Mac Keeper, respectively.) You don't need special software to keep your computer.

  Difficulty a few pop ups browser that supported Safari

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

  An excellent link to read is Tom Reed Mac Guide of malicious programs.

  If you need antivirus protection Thomas Reed recommends to use ClamXAV. (Thanks to Thomas Reed to this recommendation.)

  The user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:

  The facts are:

  1. There is no anti-malware software can detect 100% of malware out there.

  2. There is no anti-malware that can detect all targeting the Mac.

  3. the best way to prevent breaches the most is for you as the user is aware that

  the most successful malware attacks rely on sophisticated social engineering

  techniques preying on human greed, * and fear.

  4 Internet pop-up windows telling the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on

  your computer is designed to trick you into installing their malware thinking it's a

  protection against malware.

  5. some of the anti-malware market products are worse than malware

  go where they are supposed to protect you.

  6. be careful where you go on the internet.

  7. don't download anything from sites, you know are safe.

  8 avoid links that you receive in email, always be wary, even if you get something

  you think a friend is, but that you did not expect.

  9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume that it is malware.

  Troubleshooting Applications

  I recommend that you download a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaneror hiding a Cocktail that you can use to delete the former newspapers and archives, cleaning, etc. Corrupted cache, logs or temporary files can slow down the application or OS X crashes and panics of the kernel.

  If you have leopard snow or leopard, then for similar repairs install Applejackfreeware utility.  If you do not start in OS X, you can boot into single-user mode , where you can run Applejack to make a set of routines for repair and maintenance of the command line.  Note that it takes 1.5 AppleJack for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later versions.

  Basic backup

  For some people, Time Machine will be more than enough. Time Machine is part of Mac OS X. There are two components:

  1. a panel of Time Machine preferences as part of the system of preferences;

  2. a request for Time Machine, located in the Applications folder. It's

  used to manage backups and restore backups. Time Machine

  requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the

  drive being backed up.

  You can also get an external drive at least equal to the size hard disk internal and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the disk utility's restore option. You can also create and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (the order is not significant):

  1 Carbon Copy clone

  2. get backup

  3 already seen

  4 superDuper!

  5. Synk Pro

  6. Tri-Backup

  Visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the backup and restore.  Also read How to back up and restore your files. For using Time Machine, visit FAQ Time Machine of Pondini for help with all this time Machine.

  Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate .

  Additional tips

  Make sure you have a sufficient amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run simultaneously. Make sure to leave a minimum of 10% of the capacity of the hard disk as free space.

  Add more RAM. If your computer less than 2 GB of RAM and you use OS X Leopard or later, then you can do it with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion works much better with 4 GB of RAM that is their system. Most concurrent applications, that you tend to use the more RAM you should have.

  Always have at least 15 GB, or 10% of the capacity of your hard disk as free space, the largest. OS X frequently accesses your hard disk, so offering enough free space will keep things slow down.

  Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:

  Before Mavericks

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the drop process .  Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  Mavericks and later versions

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the menu display .  Click the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  This problem occurs often because of a corrupted cache or the preferences file or an attempt to write in a corrupted log file.

• Transfer photos after downgrading to El Capitan in Mountain Lion

  I upgraded my Mac Book Pro (mid2009) to El Capitan about 6 months ago. It was horrible and my computer is slower than molasses. I tried to work with it, the best that I could, because I did not save my system before the upgrade. #badmove Finally, I backed up the weekend last and erased the hard drive. Go to the Apple Store today, that they returned to Mountain Lion and it's much better. My problem is that some of my apps (like iPhoto) will not now transfer because she has been saved with the new version of El Capitan.  It is a way to always transfer my photos?

  You have a copy of iPhoto that works with 10.8?

  You can try to select the iPhoto library, then control - click/view the contents of the package. Do drag the photos on your desktop and then import them into iPhoto.

  I don't think that a single SA will give you such insurance. There are simply too many unknowns in your equation.

  A few questions that I would be:

  1. Where are your plans backup and restore?
  2. The backups have been verified? Have the hardware and other software were mapped for compatibility?
  3. Have you prepared for a recovery after disaster?
  4. What does your schedule look like?
  5. If your clients have been informed, and did you get their buy-in to the schedule planned downtime and one time the program installation or recovery?
  6. What your relief and the secondary standby solution look like?
  7. What makes it look like your hardware failure recovery plan as it is in place? More relevant would be your standby HD, on which I would clone the server for immediate system recovery.

  These aren't all, but only a few pertinent questions.

  Most SA engineers system will tell you that nothing is comparable to moments of sheer terror when they progress through the processes and procedures of a server upgrade, whether hardware or software. The latter is the worst, only comparable to the terror of a student pilot experienced on his first simulated emergency landing, frozen stiff out of pure terror on short final.

  < personal information under the direction of the host >

  You can go to depends on what your model is compatible with. You cannot install Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite because they are no longer available.

  Upgrade to El Capitan

  You can pass the Lion El Capitan or directly from Snow Leopard. El Capitan can be downloaded for FREE from the Mac App Store.

  Upgrade to El Capitan

  To upgrade to El Capitan, you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or installed Lion. Download El Capitan from the App Store. Sign in with your Apple ID. El Capitan is free. The file is big enough, more than 5 GB, allow it some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

  Mac that can be upgraded to OS X El Capitan

  1 iMac (mid-2007 or newer) - model identifier 7.1 or later

  2 MacBook (late 2008 or early 2009 or newer aluminium) - model identifier 5.1 or later

  3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

  4 MacBook Air (late 2008 or newer)- model identifier 2.1 or later

  5 mac mini (early 2009 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

  6 mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

  7 Xserve (early 2009) - model identifier 3.1 or later version

  To find the identifier of the model open system information in the Utilities folder. It is displayed in the Panel on the right.

  My applications are compatible?

  See table of application - RoaringApps compatibility

  Upgrade to Lion

  If your computer does not meet the requirements to install the Mavericks, it can still meet the specifications to install Lion.

  You can buy Lion to the Apple store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus taxes.  It's a download. You will receive an email with a redemption code that you then use on the Mac App Store for download Lion. Save a copy of this installer to your download folder because Setup deletes itself at the end of the installation.

  Lion system requirements

  1 mac with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,

  or Xeon processor

  2. 2 GB of memory

  3 OS X 10.6.6 or later (10.6.8) recommended

  4. 7 GB of available space

  5. certain features require an Apple ID; conditions apply.

• Is it still possible to install disc for Mountain Lion

  I just reinstalled Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and want to make an installation disc, but it does not appear in the App Store. All the instructions I found on the internet are about 3 years ago and it seems that I can download only of Internet recovery

  So is it still possible to download Mountain Lion during the performance of the computer and access it from the application package?

  Look under the tab of the App Store purchases.

• How can I return to mountain lion or lion?

  I'm not like El Capitan.

  Whenever I start I have to go into the settings of the mouse and reverse the dominant click and it seems slow and lazy on my old iMac.

  The only reason why I upgraded was because I received messages on my browser Safari is not not the newest of my bank when you do online banking. I'll just switch to Firefox.

  You have a backup Time Machine of Lion or Mountain Lion?  Which operating system was installed on your computer when you bought it?

• No tray 2 Mountain Lion

  Software update is an update a few days ago for my OfficeJet Pro 8500 a A910n Premium, said driver 3.3.0.

  Before, with the mountain under OSx Lion, it showed 1 & 2 status bar options.  After the update, there is no possibility of selection of tray.  If I select "printers nearby' offering, it shows pilot as 1.0, but still no possibility of selection of tray.  Automatically select the presets 'Show' for the management of paper source watch.

  I got Mountain Lion, and the printer is added before the HP upgrade.  I did the Scan to Print & > settings check yesterday evening - he was there and selected.  I did show Presets, but couldn't find any way to change it.

  Seems to be my bad here.  Before the upgrade, tray 1 and tray 2 boxes were shown in the print dialog box (minimized or view details).  Easy, my usual Fast project and tray (default) 1 have been set and I could see that they were fixed.  After, only shows the double-sided box.  Where did they go?

  Your mention of my old brain jogging Source option.  I should have known - ridiculous migration to Mac OS x, iOS has many cases take an option with a clear simple click and turn it into a procedure.  Instead of the box visible to select the status bar; now, you go to the dropdown menu with the application, select paper/quality, then Tray 1 Source.  I guess the next big upgrade allows to hide the selection of printing at the end of many drop-down menus.

  New and improved?  I find Lion and now Mountain Lion have much annoying little "features" that require more steps to accomplish something that made the snow leopard.  Maybe the small displays iOS devices requires all this blow autour but isn't my screen 24 ".  There is no place to show what you have class and select on one pane.  I'm bored of Snowy, it was a civilized Office cat.

  I did named Presets for the settings I use.  I can adapt.  I am that the gnomes would stop to fix what is not broken, I'd not to...

  Thank you.
