Mac OS USB Pendrive Installation has never been easier since Apple!

Apple finally found out that in some cases it'll be a lifesaver to have an OS installation medium :) So they finally integrated a nifty OS X Mavericks USB Pendrive Creator Tool called "createinstallmedia" which can be found within your Mavericks Image file: First download the latest copy of Mavericks from Apples Appstore and type in the following command into your MACs terminal prompt: sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/<PATH TO YOUR USB PENDRIVE> --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/ --nointeraction

SoftCAMonitor Update! Bug fixes and OSCAM integration

This package contains all the relevant software to get your EyeTV + OSCam setup running with ease. The only thing you need to do is: edit the oscam.* configuration files. Further instructions can be found in the Readme file. Moreover I provide an installer script that automatically places all the files correctly (64Bit). Basically I would like to advice you to: 1. Edit the configuration files correctly. [Basically you only need to edit the <todo> sections, if you want to use oscam as client ] 2a. Start the installer script if you are on 64Bit OSX. [Run the script within the file's folder]…

Mac OS pyQt 4.x or 5.x: Solving typical problems (ImportError: No module named PyQt4)

Installation: brew install pyqt Open up terminal and check: 1. "which python" -> Wrong: /usr/bin (Apple) -> Right: /usr/local/bin (brew) 2. "brew doctor" 3. "export" Setup your PATH correctly to /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin -> export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH Usage: I would recommend using QtCreator to setup a drag and drop User Interface (*.ui) File. Afterwards  we must compile the UI-File into python code (wrap it): pyuic4 mainwindow.ui -o mainwindow.py If you have a Resource File QRC- File too you have to previously do: pyrcc4 mainwindow.qrc -o mainwindow_rc.py Keep in mind to replace the names according to your filenames ;) so... pyrcc4 <resourcefilename>.qrc…

Run Windows 7 and 8 within Bootcamp with Clover/Chameleon in Parallels/VMWare Fusion

I recently needed Windows 7 in order to develop some OPENGL application. So I found a piece of paper where i noted how to accomplish this mission on a self-made MAC. I discovered a method that always works since Tiger and Windows XP: For Mavericks 10.9 and Windows 7 or 8 I`ll recommend u to have: - Parallels 9.x || VMWare Fusion 6.x && NTFS Paragon || Tuxera - A single HDD (allowed being cleared & repartitioned) - Mug of coffee Steps: - Disconnect all harddrives - Connect hard drive where Windows will be installed (!! IMPORTANT: Connect Win-HDD @PORT…

Mac OS External Harddisk will not unmount: could not unmount disk?

As someone recently asked me how to  unmount an external disk: a) by forcing it to unmount: sudo unmount <harddisk> e.g. sudo unmount /Volumes/hdd_xyz ...which is really dangerous because you force your disk controller to throw out your drive even it is working for you... (risk of dataloss):/ b) [Better solution] find your real enemy: sudo lsof | grep /Volumes/xyz and try to stop, eliminate those working, open files from your disk drive <xyz>

Mac OS: VirtualBox not shutting down correctly (10.9)?

Having trouble to shutdown your VirtualBox since you upgraded to OS X 9 (Mavericks)? [Solved] Write a short bash script, to remove your virtual vboxnet(XYZ) network adapter, which causes this failure! #!/bin/bash VBoxManage hostonlyif remove vboxnet<xyz> VBoxManage hostonlyif create Remember to make it executable: chmod +X <scriptname_xyz> So all we do here is to remove our vboxnet<xyz> "host only" network adapter by executing this script after we tried to shutdown our virtual box machine! The script successfully recreates the adapter with the "saved" settings... (<xyz> = 0...n in most cases write vboxnet0)
