Anyone know of a Mac program that has the same (or very similar) functionality as TortoiseSVN, which is for Windows? I'm looking for something that integrates with Finder.
I'd like to permanently see a clickable list of windows I have open, in the same way that the taskbar allows in Windows. Can I do this on Mac?
Some details:
i have many virtual desktops (spaces), so often a single application has windows on many of them.
I often have multiple windows of each application, such as the terminal or browser, on the same virtual desktop
I have multiple monitors, if it matters.
Edit: When I say 'permanently see a clickable list of windows I have open' I mean that I want to see every window I have open, and I'd like to be able to click on each one to open that window. I'm not looking for the newer behaviour where tasks are clustered by application.
I'm trying to setup a VPN server on a linux server (Gentoo). I've tired to setup OpenVPN using a PSK but I didn't found any way to configure it on Snow Leopard.
Is OpenVPN a good solution ? If so, how to configure it to make it work with Mac OS x native VPN client ?
Is there any way I can specify an additional Applications directory. I basically want to keep the applications that come with Mac OS X in the default Applications directory, but, install all third-party software to a different directory which is in a separate partition. I want to retain all advantages of the actual Applications directory such as the one where copying files from a .dmg to the Applications folder installs software.
I need a German-Danish and/or Danish-German dictionary. I have tried searching Google, but there's really not many dictionaries out there for Mac OS X it seems.
Do you know of any?
I don't care if it's freeware or not. I'm willing to buy a professional dictionary if I have to.
Hey Folks,
I'm curious as to the level of support Novell OES 2 has for mac os x. Particularly filesharing and also groupwise.
What resources are there that address the issue?
Thanks,

Hi guys,
I've created a text file from an application that I developed.
When I send the text file to a SYSTEM Validation, they (3rd Party System) say that the file is invalid and that the file contains 3 characters in the beginning of the file that are not allowed as well special characters are not correct.
They also say I need to use either ISO 8859-1 or PC850
Well, I'm using NotePad++ and I can't see that at all!
What is the best text file reader for this kinda problems?
EDITED
I also have a MAC and just a thought I remembered opening in TextMate ... WOW!
Now I know what they are talking about!
How can I have the same in Windows?
My 250GB I/O Magic USB external hard-drive randomly disconnects / ejects from the computer after between 2-30 minutes of use. When this happens, the blinking activity light on the front of the hdd turns off; however, the disks can still be heard spinning. Unplugging & replugging in the USB does not reconnect the device and the activity light remains unlit. The only way to continue using it is to flip off then on the power switch of the hdd.
The hard-drive was formatted with MBR partition table and 2 NTFS volumes. I recently tried switching to GUID with two Mac OS Extended (Journaled), but the problem remains.
This error occurs with my new Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard as well as with my DELL E520 with Windows 7 Ultimate.
Is there a way to force Mac OSX to take screengrabs with the sRGB color space instead of Color LCD? Currently I have to switch to sRGB in Displays, take a snap and then switch back.
I have a corrupt TrueCrypt volume. When I try to mount it, the password is fine but I get an error: hdiutil attach failed no mountable file systems
I read a post that says you can try to recover the volume, but I have to open it first to try to recover it. I just need to open it without TrueCrypt trying to mount it too, so I can use that partition in a data recovery program. Also it's just an image file volume.
I am using the Mac version, and I have setup an alias for the truecrypt shell command, but I'm not sure how to enter the syntax! Please help.
thank you! T

I'm still using 2.8.0.722 on my Mac while a friend has upgraded to 2.8.0.851
The newer version on her computer has pop-up bubbles for every chat message when the chat window is minimized. Neither of us are able to find where to disable this feature. The difficulty arises when we minimize a chat window, but the bubbles continue to show everything the other person is typing, even when one of our kids is with us for a moment looking at something else on the screen.
We have checked all throughout the Preferences settings, most notably the privacy and chat areas, to no avail. Ultimately we would like to disable these chat pop-up bubbles so that when a chat window is minimized, that conversation and all incoming messages will remain private until we restore that chat box to be viewable on the screen again.
Thanks!

Hi, I'm using subclipse on mac.
I did a checkout using a temp username and password yesterday.
Now that I have a new username and password, how can I change my credentials without having to delete my checkout and recheckout?
Thank you,

I have a local share with my VMware development server and I'm finding that when I create new files via Mac OS X, they are created under root instead of jacob.
Which is weird because when I do the connect to server thing I'm explicit about the user being jacob i.e.

Suggestions?
I've got a 24" 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo iMac. It's about 18 months old, though I can't specifically remember when I bought it. It has a Displayport Mini-DVI socket on the back, and currently I have that linked to a DVI adaptor driving a Philips 20" widescreen monitor in portrait mode (awesome for browsing).
I have another, identical Philips monitor and wondered if there was a way of connecting that to the iMac too. Is there such a thing as a DisplayPort Mini-DVI to dual-DVIs adaptor?
Can this iMac's graphics card even drive such a set-up? The graphics chipset in the iMac is reported as ATI Radeon HS2600, 256 MB.
The main iMac display is 1920x1200 and the Philips display is 1050x1680 (@60Hz, rotated 90 degrees). The third screen would be another 1050x1680 and ideally I'd have it portrait again, too.
EDIT: Please let this question stand - it's not a dupe. The current Mac laptops use 'Mini Displayport' connectors, which are not the same as DisplayPort Mini-DVI connectors.
I have placed too many icons in my dock.
there is by default a separator in dock between applications & trash.
I want to add more separators in my dock - for grouping purpose.
say for example
finder, preview, itunes, system pref.,activity monitor FOR Mac osx group
Mozilla, safari - for Browsing group
Odesk, skype, ipmessanger, adium, team viewer for communication
Means, I just want to add separator to identify them very quickly.
Is it possible ? if yes - how ?
Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge.

On Linux you can create any layout you wish by editing the appropriate ASCII configuration files. On Windows the keyboard layout definitions are binary. Is there any tool that can create these binary keyboard layout configuration files?
I grew up on the Macintosh international keyboard layout, which used the option key extensively, and now I would like to use the same layout on Windows.
On Linux this Mac international keyboard layout exists for both the console as well as for X.Org. On Windows, the most similar layout is US International, which is not the same.
Is there a way to adjust the scaling of items on the screen in Mac OS X so they are 1 to 1 with the real world? I.E. When I'm working with a line in illustrator that is 5 inches long, and the zoom is 100%, I'd like the actual size of the line on screen to be 5 inches.
I've dug into the System Preferences but can't seem to find anything related to this.

I'm running 10.6.2 and have been handed a couple of old files that need to be extracted. Old backups or finances or bills I believe. They are RAR files, and password protected. Is there a way to extract the hash from these files so I can feed it into John The Ripper or Cain and Abel?
Edit
I have downloaded cRARk, but unfortunately nothing I have (SimplyRAR, RAR Expander, The Unarchiver) will extract it without a password. Can someone verify that I'm crazy and there is no password on the Mac version?
I am looking for a GTD (getting things done) tool, which there is a OS X and an iPhone app available. I don't want any web based stuff, but native applications. The Mac application needs some functionality for synchronization with the iPhone app.
Are there any GTD apps, which fit my requirements?
This is what I get when I try to start the executable:
Mac-Pro:MacOS george$ /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib
Referenced from: /System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/Versions/A/Security
Reason: Incompatible library version: Security requires version 9.0.0 or later, but libsqlite3.dylib provides version 1.0.0
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 9870 Trace/BPT trap "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
I also tried:
MacOS george$ open -a /Applications/Firefox
FSPathMakeRef(/Applications/Firefox) failed with error -43.
Is there a particular way to start the application from the command line?
I got this error:
Timexxxx In 'CFPasteboardCopyData',

which is neither locked nor unlocked.
The memory has been smashed.
My Mac freezes except the mouse and keyboard. What is happening and how can I prevent this from happening in the future?
I cannot login to the server app and i know for sure all the login info is right. every time i enter my password the name window shakes to tell me it's invalid. I never post unless I'm out of ideas and I need it to be up so I can host my splash page tonight. i've spoken with "certified apple" specialists at some local mac stores and they are stumped too. Something is going on with the apache server, that's all i know for sure. I'll be monitoring this closely so any requests for info, etc. can be filled instantly. Thanks in advance.
here's a few things i've noticed:
I can ssh successfully into the server address as both root and admin.
I've been fussing with the workgroup manager and could use guidance if that's where the problem lies.
console shows this message repeatedly (org.apache.httpd[1890]) Exited with code: 1).
Much appreciated,
harry
