Terminal srm command no longer works

Since Apple has removed the installation Secure Empty Trash, I have used to safely remove files via the Terminal using the m srm or the srm - rf commands.

I just upgraded to El Capitan for OS X Sierra, and this command seems to no longer exist?

Anyone know what happened?

I have not yet updated, but you can install it using the Homebrew (http://brew.sh/).

%> brew install srm

  • screenshot command no longer works in FF18

    I used screenshot command heavily enough to capture the entire page, but updating to FF18, the command is broken.

    I can still do things very simple like "test.png screenshot", but nothing more complicated that that will result in a prompt saying too many arguments. 'Screenshot of help' However, clearly I should be able to add a lot of arguments after that, just like FF17.

    I don't know if I'm the only one with the problem, and I would like to know if anyone has experienced the same problem. Thank you.

    It has been classified as a bug:

    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=832549
    

    However, it is not a bug - just not documented well enough. You must use '-' before all of the parameters.

    i.e. "screenshot filename - fullpage '.

    You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)

    Clear the cache and delete cookies only from Web sites that cause problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Mark this shortened Page keyboard no longer works

    For some reason, mark it this Page (control-D on Mac) no longer works. I hit him, and nothing happens. I know that the command-D in the Finder window works, because it is a duplicate of the file on that I hit command-D. But it is no more bookmarking pages. What is the problem. It worked the last time I made a bookmark (a week ago). No new added modules, nothing since then different makes. Just stopped working. I have to go to the menu and choose manually mark them this Page. Keyboard shortcut does not work.

    Can you try to access the Firefox in Mode safe mode to see if the problem persists or if it opens? You can follow the instructions below to start in this mode.

    • Go to help > restart with disabled modules
    • When Firefox closes and opens again, select start in Safe Mode

    If Firefox works great after the safe boot mode, then it is probably one of your extensions of misconduct. You can enable your add-ons on one until you find the extension in conflict.

  • combination of control keys no longer works

    I use [command] - and [Ctrl] + on the numeric keypad to zoom text in and out.

    For some reason, [Ctrl] + number pad no longer works. He does, however, work using the number keys at the top of the keyboard.

    I tried starting Firefox with extensions loaded... no joy. I tried to create a new not profile under my user account... no joy. I have system administrator privileges.

    When I start Firefox using the full administrator account and password, all the keys are working.

    I use Firefox 22.0 above Windows XP Professional.

    Thanks for your help. You maybe isn't good at troubleshooting; but, you are FANTASTIC at providing a map.

    This software not did me not where the problem was. But the theory of this software pointed me to the Windows shortcut Commander (http://hkcmdr.anymania.com/index.html). I could find that software natural drive (which was the latest software I have installed the other day) was one that was hijacking the key sequence. Windows Hotkey Commander allows me to disable the special keystroke... well worth the money.

  • Ethernet port no longer works

    Hello

    I have an iMac (21.5 inch, mid 2011) running OSX 10.11.3 and today my ethernet port no longer works.

    Things I've tried:

    • Put the cable on another computer. The cable works fine.
    • Several reboots of the imac.
    • Go to safemode (SHIFT key at startup), still does not see the ethernet port.
    • Past to recovery (command + R to start) mode, the ethernet port is functioning normally. (Now I'm confused)

    Thus, it works in recovery, but not in normal mode or safe mode.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

  • AutoPlay no longer works for the camera!

    Also recently that 2 months ago, I was able to connect my canon rebel xti on my laptop Windows 7 x 64 and would get an autoplay prompt to import the photos.  All of a sudden now when I plug the camera in I hear the sound that the usb device is recognized and I can see the camera to the computer, but I no longer get the autoplay popup.  I went in the AutoPlay settings and reset default but still do not get the command prompt.  I can still manually launch Live Photo Gallery and import like this but I liked to get the command prompt, AutoPlay works fine for DVD, USB keys, etc but not the camera.

    If I connect the camera on my Win 7 32 bit Office the guest of AutoPlay works fine, something get corrupted on my laptop somehow?

  • URL Bar Search no longer works after update and no research options available!

    URL Bar Search no longer works after update and no research options available!

    "URL Bar Search" which is an extension? Or are you referring to the address bar, sometimes called the address bar?

    Let's try a few basic trounleshooting.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click on the menu button , click Help , and then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    Let know how's going on.

  • Ideapadu350 wlan HW switch no longer works

    Hello

    On my u350 aged 1 year Ideapd, the hardware to activate the wifi on/off switch is "a little" dead.

    Sound is off now and I cannot turn it on again, when I switch, the small duct which must be turned on, is not, nor the network connects to just about anything. Windows reports that I need to activate the switch of hw, linux reported wifi disabled by rf-switch.

    With the rfkill linux command, I can see, when you press the switch, that activates / turns off properly, windows some Popup screen shows as his permit, but it simply doesn't.

    What can I do now?

    -dan

    So I solved the problem, just in case someone in the future runs into the same problem (found some hits from Google on the same subject, unresolved) here's how I fixed it.

    There is no way, at least, I found none, the difficulty that under Linux, it seems to be an odd implementation by lenovo or the driver.

    FN + f5 activates / deactivates softblock on Linux, while the fn + f5 toggle hardblock in windows or at least a sort of hardblock, blocked its although strong that the physical switch no longer works, so to fix this, windows startup, press fn + f5 and turn on wifi, it will work on Linux as well. Very odd behavior, windows SW settings override physical hw switch.
