Figure out the source of a 'not optimized for your Mac and needs to be updated' message Posted: 26 Dec 2018 07:09 AM PST So I've got a "python is not optimized for your Mac and needs to be updated" alert on my Mac. This alert popped up when I was not using my machine, i.e. it's not as a result of a direct user action. Malwarebytes doesn't find anything, so I'm assuming it's an auto-updater for something or a similar background task. However, I'd like to know the exact source of the alert. 'lsof' doesn't show any open python executables. Running a 'find' on my system shows several python executables but none of them are 32-bit only. The alert itself is shown by a macOS service so I can't see what triggered it that way. Does macOS log these alerts somewhere ? Does anyone know a way to determine what was the source of this alert ? 'Python' is a bit too generic to be useful. [link] [comments] | ||
CCC not bootable, how can I make it bootable? Posted: 26 Dec 2018 02:32 PM PST I wanted to make and exact clone of an SSD. I'm running off a 120G SSD and want to clone it to a 256G SSD. I installed CCC, setup the task and checked to see if it would boot. It failed to boot. Q. Does CCC make exact clones of drives or do you have to use other tools to mark thing active or setup partitions? [link] [comments] | ||

Keep desktop wallpaper on different monitor configurations? Posted: 26 Dec 2018 09:57 AM PST Hello, I am using a MacBook Pro, sometimes portable and sometimes with a monitor connected. Is it possible to set the desktop wallpaper in a way, that the MacBook screen always displays a certain picture and the external monitor another one across different configurations? If I connect the monitor and set the wallpapers accordingly, everything works fine (also when closing the lid and using clamshell-mode). But when disconnecting, the MacBook screen switches to the external monitors wallpaper. If I then set the wallpaper of the MacBook screen and connect the monitor again, the wallpaper on the external monitor is the same as the MacBooks one. Is there a way to avoid this behaviour, in order to keep the wallpapers per screen? Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
Mid-2011 iMac stuck in Boot loop. Can't get past WSOD. Posted: 26 Dec 2018 07:35 AM PST I have a mid 2011 iMac 12.2 that suddenly restarted one day and is now stuck in a boot loop and never reaches the login screen. I keep getting stuck at a white screen. Here is what I've tried. Model Specifications iMac 12,2 Core 2.7GHz i5 27-inch Mid-2011 Model A1312 Running on Sierra since it's release and never had any issues. What I've Tried • Resetting PRAM. (I hear the two chimes, attempts to load but gets stuck at the white screen. Eventually shuts off completely.) • Internet Recovery Mode (Shows the globe, attempts to download files but then gets stuck at the white screen after loading.) • Extended Apple Hardware Test. It took about 2 hours and 30 minutes. RAM showed as healthy and nothing else wrong noted in the tests. • I ran Single User Mode and ran fsck -fy. Everything returned back OK. Nothing was modified or fixed. • I tried booting into safe mode, but once it gets past the Apple logo it still shows a white screen with no login and then shuts down. • I ended up creating an Ubuntu CD and started a live session. I managed to get in and read the drive and backup a lot of my files with no problem. I did however have to edit the Ubuntu boot config and run it in nomodeset. Otherwise I kept getting a black screen when Ubuntu tried to boot initially. I believe this instructs the kernel not to load the video drivers. (Possibly a bad GPU?) • In regards to the above, I have not experienced any weird graphical glitches, lines or artifacts. • I installed Sierra on an external USB hard drive that successfully boots on my Mac Air no problems, but fails to boot on the iMac. It attempts to load but when finished it goes to a white screen still. • A week before it died, I noticed a weird symptom. My Apple keyboard would suddenly get set to Caps Lock, especially when coming out of the screen saver. I would have to unplug the keyboard from the back of the iMacs USB port and plug it back on as toggling the key had no effect. (Points to a possible logic board issue?) I am having a hard time deciding what exactly may have went but I am leaning towards the logic board. It seems like the GPU and internal HDD are likely fine. Any advice and input would be greatly appreciated. [link] [comments] |
