    Hosts file not being read/understood

    the problem with the hosts file is that it doesn't support subdomains - everything has to be stated explicitly. Thus, there's a difference between 127.0.0.1 google.com 127.0.0.1 www.google.com So: your hosts file is working perfectly you don't have the proper understanding of how it works if...

    Problem w/ Target Disk Mode - Starts but won't mount drive.

    I've had this kind of problem twice before: Computer wouldn't boot & no access through TD-mode over FireWire. In both cases the problem turned out to be the HD-interface inside the computer. The HD itself was in perfect order with all data intact. In fact, after having transferred the HD to an...

    Problem w/ Target Disk Mode - Starts but won't mount drive.

    OK - if it's not working when cabled, we'll have to access the HD itself through some 'surgery'. You can find a complete guide here: MacBook-Core-2-Duo-Hard-Drive-Replacement on how to access the HD in the MacBook. When you've got hold of the HD, you'll have to connect it somehow to the new...

    recover my files- similar one for mac

    When you delete a file, what happens is that the OS just frees the place on the Hard Disk - the data isn't overwritten unless you use "secure erase", but all meta-information is lost - eg the filename and the folder it was associated with. Now, unless you have written new data onto the HD and...

    Problem w/ Target Disk Mode - Starts but won't mount drive.

    You haven't answered my question #2 : exactly which computer models you have. I'ld still like to have an answer to this question as my advise will rely on having this information. But from what you do tell me, I infer that you are connecting the two computers with a FireWire 800-400 cable...

    Permissions are not letting me...

    This looks quite normal and doesn't raise any serious alarms as far as I can see. However, you have some funny stuff with the above files and directories. The *.jpeg file is quarantined which indicates that it's been downloaded through Safari. If you try to open it, you'll be prompted due...

    Permissions are not letting me...

    When you just start Terminal, you'll execute commands as the user you are logged in as. You can see this by running this command : whoami Mac OS X (and somewhat Ubuntu Linux) are operating with a 5-level user account structure: root (sometimes teasingly called the God Account) - of which...

    You are doing this wrong. The command has to be executed exactly as written. sudo dscl . -list /Users UniqueID | sort -n -k2

    Permissions are not letting me...

    You are doing this wrong. You'll have to replace the '#' with the actual number of the disk. And sometimes you'll also have to replace the '3' with the correct partition. That's why I wanted the diskutil list command in order to find these numbers correctly. So, in your case some examples...

    Permissions are not letting me...

    The information about en/disable ownership is kept in a database. This information is taken from man diskutil: Thus, it's very probable that your re-install of the OS has corrupted or erased this database. Fixing permission only works on the OS itself - neither on the user home directories...

    upgrade PPC G5 to latest OS X?

    There's no workaround. You'll have to get hold of a Mac OS X 10.5 DVD in order to be able to install iTunes 10. And in my humble opinion 10.5 is a much better OS than 10.4.
