When upgrading from an Intel mac to an Apple Silicone I noticed docker fails to run. I'm using Laravel Sail when Sail is installed or when a sail up command is attempted I get an error: docker: 'compose' is not a docker command The reason for this is a docker-compose is now a plugin. Docker needs docker-compose to be installed. Use brew to install docker-compose brew install docker-compose Once installed sail will function normally without any extra setup....

Is there an offline program that let's me convert my png files to webp? I'm ruing MacOS X 10.11 El Capitan. Searching on google I was only able to find online converters that shrink the size of the Image and do not let me upload more than one file at once. This is a problem since I have around 800 pngs to convert. Let's block ads!...

Many of you might know that it is possible to add a spacer to the Mac OS dock icons with: $ defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add '{"tile-type"="spacer-tile";}' $ killall Dock but the problem is, I find them a bit wide. I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to adjust the space of those spacers An image of the spacers I'm talking about can be found here Let's block ads!...

I'm confused with closing terminal applications in OS X. Why processes are not killed after closing terminal app? For example I call python interpreter then close it with ctrl+z and when I try to close terminal it asks me about ruing python processes. Sorry for Russian in the screenshot but you can see 2 python processes(I called it two times). OS X terminal screenshot It's very aoying especially when you are working with serial port using minicom for example. You have to kill process manually after each call. Is there a way to kill them automatically? Let's block ads!...

I'm new to VBA and would greatly appreciate some help on a problem. I have long Word documents where I need to apply standard comments to the same set of keywords, but only in selected sections of the document. The following macro worked to find a keyword and apply a comment, but I'm having trouble making some modifications: Sub item_wording() ' ' item_wording Macro ' ' Do While Selection.Find.Execute("keyword1") = True ActiveDocument.Comments.Add range:=Selection.range, Text:="comment for first keyword" Loop End Sub The two modifications are: 1) only apply the comments to user selected text, not the whole document. I tried a "With Selection.Range.Find" approach but I don't think comments ca...

Teamviewer 11 is installed onto a Macintosh via an installer application. I think Teamviewer 10 is erased as the new version is installed. And that's not counting any resources in System Folders (e.g. "/Library/") that get installed or overwritten. I know they can't run at the same time, but does anyone know if Teamviewer 10 & Teamviewer 11 can co-exist on a Macintosh at the same time? Let's block ads!...

I installed successfully XAMPP on Mac OS X EL Capitan Version 10.11.1. Apache Server, ProFTPD and MySQL Database are ruing. I followed XAMPP's How-to-guide to transfer files via the proFTPD server / configure FTP access, so I can also use a FTP client like Filezilla to access the htdocs/ subdirectory of the XAMPP installation directory. As I'm the only user, I didn't create a group. I did however chown and chmod the directory so it is writeable and I'm the owner. Host address: 127.0.0.1 Port 21 useame = My Macbook account useame (= the one shown to me when I use whoami using Terminal) password = My Macbook account password No typo. Everything appears to be correct. But I'm not able to coect....

I frequently work remotely, out of reach of WiFi, and simply rely on tethering my Mac to my iPhone for inteet access. This works great, except I am unable to coect to one of my client's Cisco AnyCoect VPN Network using my Mac when tethered to my iPhone. I have spent three years vaguely looking for a solution and the last 48 hours trying solidly, so would be grateful for help. To be clear: MacOSX coected to Anycoect VPN via wifi inteet works fine. MacOSX coected to VPN via tether to a Samsung S7 LTE works fine MacOSX coected to VPN via tether to an iPhone, via either Lighting USB or Wifi, does not work By "doesn't work" I mean that I have no inteet access whatsoever (chrome displays DNS_PROBE...

I was on Sierra public beta 1, then on the lock screen, while trying to open the Guest account, it restarted automatically. Now it won't boot up, the installer is failing with the following error: Is there any way I can stop the update from installing itself and opening the installed OS. I don't have a time machine backup. Is there a way to take one from inteet recovery or a bootable disk? The system is a 13" MBP Retina. Let's block ads!...

I would expect that in both cases an arp request will be sent, and for the first the real host will answer and for the second the qualifying router will answer. No, the router only provides an ARP response if the ARP request is for the IP-addresses of one of the router's own interfaces. The client uses the netmask to decide if the destination IP is LAN-local or needs to be routed. If the client determines that the destination is outside the LAN, it selects an appropriate router from its routing table. Often this will be a "default gateway" configured statically or, more likely nowadays, by DHCP, at startup. The client would then broadcast an ARP request to find the MAC-address for the router...

When developing a web app locally I like to use addresses like app.localhost:8080 to access them. They work fine in Chrome but not in Safari. I guess this is because Chrome has special handling for the TLD and Safari uses the OS DNS resolver. Is there a way to make macOS resolve all .localhost addresses to 127.0.0.1? Let's block ads!...

I have a problem with rsync (version 2.6.9 which is outdated, but this is another problem) not correctly synchronizing files from MacOS X to MacOS X (versions Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite and that's all for now because my time to investigate is exhausted). I have been able to reduce this problem to files which have extended attributes. I would like to understand it (for example is it safe to suppress x or y extended attributes). On Mac OS X, ls with the @l option combination displays extended attributes of any argument: % ls -@dl example dr-xr-xr-x@ 2 bob wheel 102 Jul 18 17:21 example com.apple.FinderInfo 32 % The command xattr displays the content of these extended attributes: % xatt...
