The format of BeyondTV doesn’t look as good on Front Row as I’d like. This cleans the file name up.

for X in *\(*
do Y=`echo $X | awk -F\( '{print $2}' | awk -F\) '{print $1}'`
mv "$X" "$Y.mp4"
done

Try -

sudo defaults write com.apple.CrashReporter DialogType none

Running Cisco VPN on OS-X I would get “Error 51: Unable to communicate with the VPN subsystem” whenever I would try to connect. I tried rebooting, moving from Wireless to Wired (and rebooting in between), and nothing would work. However,

sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/CiscoVPN restart

seems to fix the issue.

Open “Image Capture”

Open “Image Capture” preferences

Change “When Camera is Connected, open [no application]“

nmap -sP 10.1.1.0/24

When I need to find an open IP, this is a decent way to do it. I wish there were a way to find IPs that don’t respond, but this works for now. This won’t work if your network bans ICMP traffic, or your host doesn’t respond, but is alive.
