Here are a few of my questions about shell scripts. I'm not sure if this is the right section, but the Scripting section seemed more like a collection. 1. How do I have my shell script check for a -[letter]? For examle, if I want to have my shell script echo either yes or no: Input...

When I try to jailbreak my iPod Touch 2G with redsn0w 0.8, it gets stuck saying "Waiting For Reboot". It got stuck here for at least 45 minutes. What's the problem?

Thanks! Will it be a problem that I set up my iPod as a development device with Xcode?

That link gives an error message.

There is no "iPod Software Updates" folder, either. The only folder there is "iTunes Plug-ins".

Supposedly, the firmware file is supposed to be in ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates. I looked, and the only folder in "iTunes" is "iTunes Plug-ins". Where is the 3.0 firmware file? I bought it from iTunes, and installed it on my iPod. Where are the firmware files? One thing to note is...

Would it be legal for me to jailbreak my iPod Touch 2G?

Thanks! How do I install OS X on the empty drive once I have formatted it?

What do I do in the Disk Utility from the install disk? Do I have to install Mac OS X after formatting?

Can someone please tell me the steps to formatting my hard drive with Disk Utility? Also, I have two questions: 1. Do I have to format my drive from the Disk Utility on the Mac OS X Install disk or the one stored on my computer? 2. Will I have to reinstall Mac OS X after formatting it...

Are you saying that if I write zeros over free space (which leaves me with 0GB left) and repair the disk, those deleted files will be completely gone and I will have the space back on my disk?

I did that, but when I clicked "Secure Empty Trash", it said it only deleted 3 items. Would it work to clear up space by duplicating a large file a ton (e.g. iPhone SDK DMG) and delete the copies, and secure empty trash?

The reason why I want to get rid of all those already deleted files is that I want to partition my hard drive. Because I've deleted so many files, many of which "still exist" and have not been written over, Boot Camp says I don't have enough space left on my hard drive. Wouldn't writing zeros...

I have moved many many (about 120GB) of files to the trash, and emptied the trash. I just now learned that this does not actually delete the data, it just makes the data rewriteable. How do I actually delete all the files that I have emptied with the trash before? I do not want to erase free...

I used Disk Utility to erase free space on my hard drive, and now I have 0GB left on my disk! What do I do?

If I open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD, and click "Erase Free Space" it says that it will write a 0 over all the free space. Does that mean that I'll end up with 0 GB free on my hard drive?

Will clicking "Erase Free Space" erase my data, or will I still have all my files?

Sorry. That was a mistake. I actually did repair the disk. I messed up typing it there.

I repaired the disk, but now I get the following error message: The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved. Backup the disk and use Disk Utility to format the disk as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp...

I tried to install Windows Vista with Boot Camp. Here are the specs for my computer: MacBook Pro (Late 2007): 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 2 GB RAM; 185.99 GB Hard Drive; Running Mac OS 10.5.7 I am trying to partition my drive so that I have a 153 GB Mac partition and a 32 GB Windows partition...
