What is the ideal configuration for a new Mac

Hi all

First: the reason for this post

For awhile, I'm faced with a problem on the Adobe software could not be resolved by all the good people at Adobe.

The problem is that I can't use CC libraries to its full potential. All I can do is save the shades of colors to a library, but no matter what other assets (chart, type specifications etc.).

Whenever I try to add an asset in a CC library of in Illustrator, I get an error saying "the file may be read-only or another user can open. Please save the document under a different name or in a different folder. Well, there is no one else and saving to a different location or with a different name does nothing. I got the Adobe employee watching my iMac (remotely) to find out what goes wrong. But despite all good intentions, no one was able to solve this problem. And I left it this way for almost a year. OK, so far, for the reason...

But today, I created a new user on my iMac with the same admin privileges as account when I first set up my iMac, I created. And guess what? Connect with newly created account and using Illustrator on it to add assets to a CC library works without any problem.

Why? What is the difference in these accounts, I wondered. And after watching the activity monitor in both accounts, I think I know why, but I do not understand.

My new account is the user name 'Test', and my old account first (first) when I created my iMac is "Letsgo.

On the account of 'Test' in the activity monitor all the I see is the user 'Test' for all running processes.

But 'Letsgo' account I see, of course, a lot of process for "Letsgo" but I also see other users as 'root' or '_spotlight' or '_appleevents '. The way I see it, these additional users are very similar to "default" OSX system accounting.

Press 'CMD + S' to soon... Sorry... This should be added...

And now the question:

It is advisable to set up a Mac with the account of user by default when you first set up the Mac and keep this for purposes of administration and create a new account for day-to-day work? I want to upgrade to El captain in the coming weeks and want to do a clean install, if the implementation of different accounts is the best way.

  • What are the best practices for a new employee to learn inside the instance of their business of Eloqua as efficiently as possible?

    We have companies everything changed at some point in our lives. And we all go through the process in the first weeks, where you feel new and are just trying to figure out how not to get lost on your way in the mornings.

    On top of that, trying to familiarize yourself with your new company Eloqua instance can be a daunting task, especially if it's a large organization.

    What are the best practices for new employees to learn as efficiently and effectively as possible?

    I am in this situation right now. Moved to a much larger organization. It is a huge task trying to understand all the ins and outs not only society, but also of the eloqua instance, especially when she is complex with many points of integration. I find that most of the learning happens when I really go do the work. I spent a ton of time going through the programs, documentation, integrations, etc., but after awhile, it's all just words on a page and not absorbed.

    The biggest thing that I recommend is to learn how and why things are made the way they are currently, ask lots of questions, don't assume not that things work the same as they did with your previous employer.

    Download some base in place level benchmarks to demonstrate additional improvement.

    Make a list of tasks in the long term. As a new pair of eyes, make a list of things you'd like to improve.

    SpeedGrade 2015.0 RAM eating bug, didn't matter what parameters have been set, SG would eat all the RAM

    I paste the link to the thread here related Speedgrade eat all my 32 GB of RAM - question?

    After SpeedGrade 2015.0 came SpeedGrade 2015.0.1 (or was it a different number?). Now the current version is 2015.1

    If you want to avoid the RAM eating problem, consider an update - but also consider that it is not recommended to update to mid-project. Also consider that when direct linking of first in SpeedGrade versions must match. If you update a you will be locked out of each other - as in if you update SpeedGrdae, but not first, your first will be able to open your "latest version SpeedGrade.

  • What is the ideal monitor for use with first Pro CC?

    I'm looking for a new monitor in the range 27-28 ".  I have change for most HD content, but also some 4 K.  My price range is to $1,200.

    For HD, you should consider the U2413 of Dell UltraSharp is a monitor of 10 bits with a coverage of 100% of sRGB and has a built-in equipment 14-bit LUT. With a little work you can get it pretty much a perfect diffusion of performance. It's only 24 ", but it is 1920 x 1200, so the output is true pixel-to-pixel, I think is more important than the size. You can get it for less than $500.

    For 4K you could go with the UP2414Q or if you prefer 27 "x 24", the P2715Q. Although the P2715Q is not a "Prime Minister color" monitor, it gives you a 10-bit display and 99% sRGB coverage.

  • 15.0.1 Firefox what are the system requirements for Mac?

    I use Mac OS 10.6.8 and I can't install Firefox v 15.0.1. What are the system requirements for this new version of Firefox running on a Mac?

    Firefox should work fine on Mac OS X 10.6.8

    See:

    If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

    Your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re) install Firefox.

  • LAPN300 - the best configuration for 3 access points, while using the same SSID

    Hi all

    What is the best configuration for 3 x LAPN300 located in various places around my house of 3 floors, access points if I want just one SSID?

    I did some initial research which suggests that I can use the same SSID on all three, as long as they are on different channels. 1, 6 and 11 for example. In theory, then, as I wander around the House the client machine must auto swap to the AP with the signal stronger.

    What do you think? What is the best way or do, or could suggest you something else?

    As an aside... If I decided to create a second SSID for the guests at home, I would also want to add wireless isolation to this SSID. How would that be managing the DHCP server on the local network? How would be asked to connect to the SSID has never get an IP if they have been isolated from other clients on the local network?  Besides, how they see the router? The ANNUAL lets you specify exceptions to this isolation for this feature?  Alternatively, as I suspect, is the right isolation feature isolate them from other WLAN, not the LAN clients customers?

    I did some testing and configuration of the AP with the same SSID and security will do what you want. Don't worry about setting the channel because the auto channel setting works with these devices and automatically adjusts the spacing between the appropriate channels.

    Recommendation of the VPN_user is what you need if you want to isolate the SSID comments from the rest of your network clients.

    Isolation of SSID of the AP will guard only wireless devices to communicate with each other on the same SSID on which it is enabled.

    in the end, we have used a perl script to capture the webservice and treat it and tables configuration.  Here is what has been written and created an agent custom.

  • What is the best practice for a 'regular' Server VMware and VDI environment?

    What is the best practice for a "regular" VMware Server and VDI environment?   A single environment (ESXi and SAN) can accommodate two if it is a whole new configuration?  Or even better to keep separate?

    Enjoying inputs.

    Quick and dirty answer is that "it depends."

    serioulsy, it depends really two things budget and IO.  If you had the money for two without then buy two and don't have to host your server environment and the other for VDI desktop, their IO profiles are completely different.

    If this is not the case, try to keep each type of use for their own dedicated LUN.
