Cannot delete duplicate certificate

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 06:28 AM PDT

I have a duplicate certificate in my keychain which I cannot seem to be able to delete. If I delete it from the keychain app by first unlocking the system keychain and then right clicking and selecting 'delete', nothing happens and the certificate still stays there.

I tried to do it from the terminal by first finding the certificate with:

$ security find-certificate -a -c "Apple Distribution: Klikkie B.V. (T6R6F8DT6A)"

But the output is not clear to me:

keychain: "/Users/ramy/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db" version: 512 class: 0x80001000 attributes: "alis"="Apple Distribution: Klikkie B.V.

I showed the output only of one certificate. First of all it's not clear how to distinguish one from another, second it's not clear where to find the hash. The intent is to use the delete-certificate command but I don't how to identify the one that I need to delete. And if I try deleting by name I am not sure what happens, but I don't want to delete the wrong one.

I even tried following this thread, or giving the least restrictive permissions to my Keychain with chmod but I am still unable to delete the certificate. At the moment this is preventing me from building apps with Xcode and I am surprised that Apple makes it so much of a problem. Can anybody suggest me a solution?

How to save docx as docx from pages without exporting

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 06:22 AM PDT

I am finding I need to edit a docx document that was sent to me, but the default behavior in Pages seems to require that I export as a new file, and cannot directly save to the original document.

I don't use pages often, so am not deeply versed in its operation.

Is there a way to save to original document, or am I forced to make a new document via export?

macOS Catalina bug with openVPN : ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCDIFADDR): Can't assign requested address

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 06:03 AM PDT

When I launch openVPN in the terminal, I get the following error:

ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCDIFADDR): Can't assign requested address  add net 10.7.0.0: gateway 10.7.0.2  add net 185.196.22.194: gateway 192.168.2.1  add net 0.0.0.0: gateway 10.7.0.1  add net 128.0.0.0: gateway 10.7.0.1

The bug is known (https://www.ovpn.com/en/faq/troubleshooting/mac-cant-assign-requested-address-code49):

Can't assign requested address (code=49) is a bug in macOS and not an issue with OVPN itself.

There are two ways of fixing this issue. The first one is easier as you simply have to restart your computer. Otherwise, you can solve the problem through the terminal.

but when I try the fix:

sudo route flush

after Wi-Fi is disabled, it doesn't work on my machine. I also tried rebooting and it is the same.

I have Catalina 10.15.7. Do you have any suggestions to fix this?

Outdated gpg version on Big Sur

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 04:48 AM PDT

It seems that the the current gpg installed on Big Sur is a bit outdated compared with the one bottled from homebrew.

gpg --version  gpg (GnuPG/MacGPG2) 2.0.30  libgcrypt 1.7.0  Copyright (C) 2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Similar if I try with gpg2

If I'm not mistaken with the current version seems to be no support for elliptic curve algos, e.g. ed25519.

Brew says that the latest version of gpg is 2.3.4

brew info gpg  gnupg: stable 2.3.4 (bottled)  GNU Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) package  https://gnupg.org/  Not installed  From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/gnupg.rb  License: GPL-3.0-or-later  ==> Dependencies  Build: pkg-config ✔  Required: gettext ✔, gnutls ✔, libassuan ✔, libgcrypt ✔, libgpg-error ✔, libksba ✔, libusb ✘, npth ✔, pinentry ✘

The locations of the installed gpg versions are the following:

which gpg  /usr/local/bin/gpg    which gpg2  /usr/local/MacGPG2/bin/gpg2

My question is if I uninstall gpg and gpg2 and then install using brew will I have any issues?

Or put it another way, what is the appropriate method of updating the current gpg version 2.0.30 to 2.3.4.

Disabling auto-brightness with dual monitors

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 03:53 AM PDT

I have a MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) connected to an external monitor.

I've disabled 'auto-brightness' but the screen keeps dimming by itself. I've tried setting it in my preferences both with and without the external monitor connected.

Am I doing something wrong?

TTS has stopped working in Apple Books

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 03:32 AM PDT

Before Monterey, I could use the Text-to-speech feature in Books.app. It stopped working for me and I miss it so much. I have tried other e-book readers (Calibre, some garbage from Adobe) where the TTS feature works but I don't like using for various nit-picky reasons.

So how to make TTS work again in Books.app?

Can't connect to email without VPN

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 02:55 AM PDT

2010 MacPro. I updated from High Sierra to Mojave as I had the right GPU.

Now, when I try to log in to email, first choice, using Thunderbird, it doesn't connect. Then I tried to go to Comcast's web mail. and saw the usual note at the bottom of the browser -

enter image description here

but then -

enter image description here

Able to sign in to my account for billing, etc, just not mail.

I then tried other browsers and got similar warnings.

I then turned on my VPN (I happen to use Winscribe) and both Thunderbird and browser based mail come through.

This occured with the update to Mojave, and I'm trying to understand what setting was changed and how I can avoid needing the VPN to run to get mail.

To be clear, I have no issues signing into other secure sites, and no issue signing into Comcast email from non-Mojave Macs.

How to correctly setup homebrew?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 02:51 AM PDT

I own a Mac M1 with Monterey 12.3.1. I often experience problems uninstalling brew packages. Here an example:

I installed pnpm with homebrew. Then, I tried to uninstall it:

brew uninstall pnpm

If I brew uninstall pnpm, the following message appears:

Error: No such keg: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pnpm

Still, pnpm is installed:

$> which pnpm                                             /opt/homebrew/bin/pnpm

So, it seems that homebrew is looking up at Cellar while the package is at /opt/homebrew/bin. I don't get the concept of Cellar. Is it a homebrew configuration problem?

How to fix homebrew to uninstall correctly?

Manage Corporate and BYOD iOS devices with Intune

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 01:19 AM PDT

We have several corporate iPhones which are intended to be managed through ADE (Apple Business Manager). The company's M365 domain has been registered w/ABM so all accounts are 'managed apple IDs'. New iPhones have been added to ABM, and are seen in Intune, but they do not pull apps...even though I've 'purchased' the apps in ABM.

Older iPhones (corporate-owned) are not in ABM, and must be brought into compliance via Company Portal. This works well enough, but I don't see my settings propagating. I configured a 6 digit PIN requirement, but devices show as compliant in Intune...when they have a 4 digit PIN. I suspect this discrepancy is because the device is flagged as 'personal' during the Company Portal setup. So, that leads to the next issue:

How can I manage both company and BOYD iPhones in Intune? I've gone through the Microsoft docs to set this up, but its not working as expected. Does anyone have a good go-to guide to get this set up start-to-finish?

We have the following scenario:

6 new Corporate iPhones, already enrolled in ABM. 6 older Corporate iPhones not enrolled in ABM. Employees are encouraged to BYOD, so the company portal app is the intended tool for securing those devices.

Thanks in advance for any tips!

How to connect a Macbook Pro to three monitors with a docking station?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 12:29 AM PDT

I have:

  • LandingZone Dock Docking Station for The MacBook Pro [Model A1425 & A1502] with Retina Display (13-inch MacBook)
  • MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014)
  • VGA Display Port Input (Apple)
  • HDMI Display Port Input (Apple)
  • Three monitors

I want to connect three monitors with my Macbook Pro and DockingStation, however only one of the Display outputs doesn't work from the Macbook Pro while the other works. The docking station does have a built-in HDMI. I just don't know what the problem is, any suggestions on how to resolve this?

How do disable all notifications on macOS and iOS?

Posted: 12 Apr 2022 11:25 PM PDT

I have to use a Mac at work and there's random notifications in the top right, e.g. update software, try Safari, error messages, etc.

I just want to turn them all off. I already disabled notifications for every software in the "Notifications & Focus" settings that are disableable, but e.g. "Managed Software Center" isn't disableable. On Windows, when there's a notification, it lights up a small icon in the corner that you can just ignore.

Also, on iOS, I already disabled notifications for every app, but whenever my battery gets low, Apple engineers felt the need to pause whatever I'm doing and fill my whole screen with a popup telling me about battery levels. On Android, it just changes my battery icon to red.

How can I disable all notifications?

`open folder` may fail due to “untranslocated nodes”

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 12:25 AM PDT

For some reason, opening a folder in the Finder from the command line with

open path/to/folder

does not work anymore for subdirectories of my Documents folder:

% cd  % mkdir Documents/TestDir  % open Documents/TestDir

opens a new Finder window, but that does not show the "TestDir" folder but the "Computer" folder.

The system log shows these error messages about "untranslocated nodes":

% log stream --predicate 'process == "Finder" and messageType == error'   Filtering the log data using "process == "Finder" AND logType == 16"  Timestamp                       Thread     Type        Activity             PID    TTL    2022-04-10 14:07:42.994683+0200 0xb6f5     Error       0x0                  444    0    Finder: (LaunchServices) [com.apple.launchservices:default] capability properties: could not find untranslocated node for <FSNode 0x6000035b9aa0> { isDir = ?, path = <private> }, proceeding on the assumption it is not translocated: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=2 "No such file or directory"  2022-04-10 14:07:42.994777+0200 0xb6f5     Error       0x0                  444    0    Finder: (LaunchServices) [com.apple.launchservices:default] capability properties: could not find untranslocated node for <FSNode 0x6000035b9aa0> { isDir = ?, path = <private> }, proceeding on the assumption it is not translocated: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=2 "No such file or directory"  2022-04-10 14:07:43.003949+0200 0xb6f5     Error       0x0                  444    0    Finder: (LaunchServices) [com.apple.launchservices:default] capability properties: could not find untranslocated node for <FSNode 0x60000358d0c0> { isDir = ?, path = <private> }, proceeding on the assumption it is not translocated: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=2 "No such file or directory"  2022-04-10 14:07:43.004319+0200 0xb6f5     Error       0x0                  444    0    Finder: (LaunchServices) [com.apple.launchservices:default] capability properties: could not find untranslocated node for <FSNode 0x60000358d0c0> { isDir = ?, path = <private> }, proceeding on the assumption it is not translocated: Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=2 "No such file or directory"

Running First Aid on Macintosh HD (in Recovery mode) did not report any errors.

The problem occurs only with (nested) subdirectories of "Documents". Opening "Documents" itself or any other folder works correctly.

Sometimes it works if I specify the "-R" flag explicitly, e.g.

% open -R Documents/TestDir

but not always.

My configuration: macOS 12.3.1 on a MacBook Air (Retina, 13-inch, 2020).

Any ideas how to fix (or further investigate) this problem are welcome.

Safari is caching hard, I have to empty for each change in my css

Does anybody know if there is a fix/workaround for Safari so it doesn't cache everything so hard. I'm solving a specific Safari bug and I have to empty the cache for each change I do. They removed the "disable cache" option so I'm wondering what you guys do.

Install Windows 11 on Boot Camp

Can't force quit application even in Activity Monitor (AnyTransToolHelpers)

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 01:12 AM PDT

I installed AnyTrans. I uninstalled it soon after. But, I can't seem to get my mac to stop running some helper that seems to somehow be leftover.

enter image description here

I have tried:

  1. going into activity monitor, selecting "AnyTransToolHelpers", clicking the "X" and selecting "Force Quit"
  2. Restarting my computer

In case this is any help, when I double-click "AnyTransToolHelpers" it opens a window and then I can select an "Open Files and Ports" tab which shows the following:

Entering Sleep state due to 'Low Power Sleep': Using AC (Charge:0%) on iMac

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 06:08 AM PDT

My iMac randomly goes to sleep while I'm using resource-intensive apps such as Unreal Engine or Parallels Desktop.

If I run pmset -g log | grep "Entering Sleep" I get the following log:

2021-07-12 11:17:12 +0200 Sleep                 Entering Sleep state due to 'Low Power Sleep': Using AC (Charge:0%) 21 secs

This is confusing, because my Mac is an iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014) and of course doesn't have any battery.

I found another similar question with as only answer the suggestion to reinstall macOS, which I did, but I keep having the same problem.

When the iMac is running such resource-intensive apps, the GPU (AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4 GB) reaches 104 degrees celsius, and the CPU stays between 80 and 95. I'm not sure if this can be the reason, but I would expect a different log if the problem was overheating.

What I've tried so far:

  • Reinstall macOS Big Sur
  • Reset PRAM
  • Reset SMC
  • Run Amphetamine to attempt to stop the Mac from going to sleep
  • Run Macs Fan Control to force the fans to go to full speed
  • Made sure I don't have any hot corners associated to "Sleep"
  • Disconnected any external peripheral
  • Vacuumed it to try to remove any dust
  • Ensured there's enough room behind the iMac to let air flow
  • Cleared the iMac from dust with some compressed air (this lowered the CPU temp to ~70 and the GPU to ~90)
  • Installed macOS on an external SSD and ran my apps from it

Nothing helped so far. Could someone help me figure out the issue?

Sound Gone on Macbook Pro Retina 15" late 2014 running MacOS Big Sur 11.3 Beta

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 04:04 AM PDT

A few weeks ago, the sound on my Mac just died. Nothing was coming from the internal speakers, the headsets, or external systems. When I get into the sound icon from system preferences, I'm told that there are no input or output devices available. Everything but the sound works fine, except if there's an interview in a story, music, or any audio, I get dead silence.

Is this a fatal breakdown or can it be fixed for under the $2300 I paid for it originally?

I didn't expect it to help, but I tried to restore everything with the Time Machine--no luck there.

Thanks.

Unity: How can I run Unity builds created in High Sierra & Verify they run on Mojave without a Mojave computer?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 03:00 AM PDT

I have Unity 2020.3.0f1 Mac apps that were created on end-of-life High Sierra computers. I recently purchased a Mac Mini M1 computer. The apps run on both computers. I have to execute a terminal command on them to get them to open on the M1 computer.

Apple changed the App Store Upload process so that now we have to notarize that new apps will run on Mojave. I don't have a computer that runs Mojave. From my understanding you can't test Unity builds using the Apple Simulators. Is there another option to test my apps to see if they will run on Mojave?

Does using multiple monitors cause the iMac to run hotter?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 05:01 AM PDT

I have noticed my iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, Late 2015) tends to run hot & noisy when watching some simple videos. I have tried whatever light duty diagnostics I can manage, such as activity monitor and the built in diagnostic tool, but nothing seems to be apparent.

The only thing I can think of is that my iMac is connected to two external monitors: one is a semi-retired older iMac in target display mode, and the other is a Phillips monitor.

Is it possible that supporting external monitors causes the iMac to run hotter?

Disable Cmd-w on macOS Catalina

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 03:30 AM PDT

⌘ + W closes the current window on macOS Catalina. This conflicts with my muscle memory of using M-w in Emacs.

I looked at Disable Command-W in the terminal, but the accepted answer does not work on macOS Catalina.

How do you disable ⌘ + W?

Sync with icloud doesn't work

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 12:05 AM PDT

The sync between icloud and my ipad and my mac doesn't, for all services (icloud drive, Ibooks...)

My mac is running Catalina 10.15.3 My ipad is running Ios 13.3.1

Nothing is sync on the devices but the data are available via icloud.com.

Here's what I tried:

  • Sign off and sign in from I cloud.
  • Restart many times
  • Kill the bird process and deleting the ~/Library/Application Support/CloudDocs as described here iCloud Drive Won't Sync on Mac

macOS Mail: How to remove background color of a message in message list?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 01:51 AM PDT

In MacOS Mail, we can change the background color of a message in the message list. This could happen in two ways AFAIK: (i) Select a message, go to Format -> Show Colors, then choose a color, or (ii) Setup a rule that automatically set the background color based on some conditions.

The question is: once the background color is set, I can't seem to find a way to remove the background color. I can only change it to another color. This does not work well when we switch between dark mode and light mode. What I would like to do is to remove the colors all together (or equivalently, make the background transparent). Is there a way to do this?

How to Set my Mac's $PATH back the way it was before

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 01:33 AM PDT

I am just getting started with Terminal, the other day I might have messed something up with my urs/local/bin. When executing echo $PATH it returns me with /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin the original path was /usr/local/bin.

How do I set it back to factory settings?

How to remove chrome app icons from launchpad?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 02:07 AM PDT

I uninstalled Google chrome by deleting it from the Applications folder and I also deleted the associated profile data from ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome.

But I have failed to remove all the Chrome apps icons from launchpad.

I would greatly appreciate it if you can point to the location where google is keeping those app launchers. I have looked for them in the hidden folders as well as Google folders in ~/Library but I have had no luck.

Copy and paste multiple things in macOS?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 04:52 AM PDT

I would like to be able to copy and paste multiple items on a Mac using key shortcuts.

For example, ⌘1 would copy item 1 and ⌘2 would copy item 2, etc.

Then ⌘! would paste item 1 and ⌘@ would paste item 2.

If there is already a program for this please let me know or if you can make me one. Also I need it to be a free program.

How to use the Homebrew installed git on Mac?

Posted: 13 Apr 2022 04:44 AM PDT

I have installed the newest version of git (1.8.3) using homebrew but when I type

git --version

in my terminal, it prints:

git version 1.7.10.2 (Apple Git-33)

What should I do to replace the old version of git with the new one?
