Why are there so many instances of mdworker running on El Capitan

Why OSX trigger so many instances of mdworker.  Now I'm under Mail, Chrome and a running activity monitor an iMac 27 "with 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB.  There are 16 cases of mdworker running.

I turned off Spotlight search results for everything and they always keep their appearance.

Have you looked at the Spotlight Suggestions & confidentiality?

In Snow Leopard, I put all my folders in a private space as well as Caches of my library - which seems to help - as I have never used that much - and only realized it was indexing after my system stuck.

Seems they worked to worsen a bad idea.

    In dreamweaver, why do so many errors on my jquery.js and bootstrap.js codes when I barely opened freshly model?

  • On facebookk in FF, why are there so many buttons that simply will not do anything?

    No error message is displayed. And there are no problems when you use IE.

    This seems odd. Facebook is the only site that I'm having a problem when using Firefox. Here is an example of what does not work.

    I click on the facebook button '+ 1 Add a friend' and nothing happens

    But if I do the same when in Internet Explorer, the box turns into a box that says: 'friend a request sent' (or something close to that.)

    Another example is cat-clicking will bring up a list of people online in Internet Explorer, and I can start a conversation.

    In FF, nothing happens at all. I don't not even a glow of my screen.

  • Why are there so many duplicates in my music folder?

    I went in my iTunes Media/Music folder to find a song corrupt and noticed that most of my music has been duplicated once or several times.  There is the original song and the other with a '1' or '2' some time after the title.  That's happened?  I guess that I should not worry but I have only approximately 3,500 songs in iTunes, but there are now more than 10,000 files in this folder and duplicates are taking up more than 50 GB.  What can I do about it without screwing up iTunes and how do I keep it doesn't happen?  Thank you.

    One possible approach is to use the file > add folder to library to add the iTunes Media folder, and then everything that is currently in the press kit and is not already connected to the library will be added to it. You can then deduplication.

    iTunes can create duplicates if the same content is added several times from outside the media folder when it is about to make copies of everything that is added to the library, or is added from an external drive that hosts the press kit that was disconnected during the launch of iTunes.

    Official notice of Apple on the duplicates is here: find and remove duplicates in your iTunes library. This is a manual process and article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as the lost coast and membership of playlist, or sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library as well as a removal and recycling the file will break all the others.

    Use MAJ > view > show items to reproduce exactly to display the duplicates because it is normally a selection more useful. You must manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sort the list by Date added can make easier select appropriate tracks, but it works better when executed immediately after the dupes were created.  If you have several entries in iTunes connected to a same file on the disk hard then don't not send to trash.

    Use my DeDuper script (Windows only) If you are not sure, do not want to do it by hand, or want to maintain ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this background thread , this post for detailed instructions and Please take note of the warning to back up your library before deduping.

    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to temporarily view or CTRL + B to keep displayed.)

    The latest version of the script can put away the dead links as long as there is at least a double live to merge his stats and membership of the playlist and must deal wisely when the same file has been added through multiple paths.

  • Why are there too many vmdk files?

    I use vmware workstation 8 to end of software testing. Both the guest and the host Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have 12 shots with the guest. I found that there are 283 files vmdk, which takes about 420 GB of disk space.

    Now, I deleted all of the snapshots, but there are still 259 files vmdk, who take 395 GB of disk space.

    As I deleted all of the snapshots, now the guest is just a pure installs Windows 7. It should take no more than 10 GB.
    Any suggestion?

    Thank you.

    Wow! The directory listing shows 281 snapshots that dose of course not jive with the dictionary of snapshot (file .vmsd) If you have a mess on your hands.

    Not completely sure that you are the ultimate goal here is however I suggest creating a new virtual hard disk using vmware-vdiskmanager pointing towards "w7 64 - 000281.vmdk" as source and then swap out.

    Also the list of directories being incomplete, it displays only the hard files, I can't you what else to clean the other then delete the file .vmsd if you choose to consolidate snapshots of the "w7 64.vmdk" file using vmware-vdiskmanager.

    Note: DON'T do anything without having a full and correct virtual machine backup before you continue!

  • Why are there so many versions of Firefox in the last 6 months?

    Firefox 9.0 publication December 2011
    10.0 Firefox released January 2012
    Firefox 11.0 released March 2012
    Firefox 12.0 released April 2012
    Firefox 13.0 released June 2012

    Where are the notes? I see some of the differences between the versions, but the speed at which they are distributed has me suspicious.

    Mozilla is passed to a cycle of "Quick release" with the release of Firefox 4 and 5. This means that every 6 months, a new version of Firefox comes in the pipeline. https://wiki.Mozilla.org/RapidRelease http://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2011/08/25/rapid-release-process/.

    Basically, what that means in practice for users is every 6 weeks, bug fixes, new features, improvements, etc. that are ready for Firefox are released. If a feature is not ready, it is held until the next version. Instead of having to wait a year or more between updates (such as 3.6 to 4.0) containing new web technologies, performance enhancements, etc. New features are ready for users much more quickly.

    If you wish to view the release notes, you can go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/, click the Desktop tab (because it most likely will be showing the mobile tab right now). Then click on "What's New". This will take you to a page like http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/13.0.1/releasenotes/

  • Configuration of backups from iCloud drive: why are there two Mobile Documents files?

    I've recently started using iCloud drive to synchronize documents between my Mac and iOS devices. Now, I want to assure you that I have local backups of these documents.

    I understand that the documents synchronized via iCloud are store locally in my Mobile user home/library/Documents folder. But when I check I made 2 folders: Documents Mobile and Mobile Documents.90391253.  The Documents Mobile folder seems to keep all the records that I created using Pages, drafts and TextEdit.  The second folder has files with obscure names such as ' JFJWWP64QD ~ com ~ goodiware ~ GoodReader. ". Records of Documents that I checked are empty.

    Here is a screenshot of the second folder:

    Why are there two folders of Documents Mobile? When you add a folder to a backup program, I would add two folders or just the folder Documents Mobile?

    The second folder (the one your screenshot) is a backup of an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, which was made via iTunes. More information: finding and managing your backups iTunes - Apple Support
