A few days ago I copied a bunch of files/folders from an external NTFS formatted hard drive to my MacBook. The files where copied ok, but the permissions where messed up. How did I fix them? With this simple command: $ chmod -Rv u=rwx,g=rx,o=r username path_to_base_folder It recursively goes through all files and folders and fix their permissions. Source!

This is experimental, and known to be unstable, use at your own risk. You need to modify /etc/fstab file to mount NTFS partitions for read and write. First, uninstall NTFS-3G/Paragon if installed. Open Terminal run diskutil info /Volumes/volume_name and copy the Volume UUID. Backup /etc/fstab if you have it (shouldn't be there in a default install).  Run sudo vim /etc/fstab and write: UUID=paste_the_uuid_here none ntfs rw or LABEL=volume_name none ntfs rw (if you don't have UUID for the disk). Repeat for other NTFS partitions. Restart your system. Thats all! source (great web)

Alternative 1 A Quick way to resize images in batches could be find that Preview has that functionality. Open the whole batch of images in Preview; the images will all open in the same window with thumbnails visible in the sidebar.

You’ll be presented with a dialog containing options to resize to all the common 4:3 and 16:9 screen sizes, as well as the option to define custom dimensions. Images are scaled proportionately and resampled by default. snow leopard preview image resize Save the resized images, and you’re done! Preview will prompt you to save any changes if you attempt to close the window. Alternative 2 You can also use sips on the command line: sips -Z 1024 *.jpg will resample to a max of 1024 px for the long edge. Note that sips rewrites images in place, so you should do this on a copy if you care. s...

On Debian based distros, find is part of the package findutils . find allow one to search for files on a filesystem based on different condition, creation date, modified date, file size, file type, permissions, name .... This tutorial, will be focused on finding files/directories based on their name, in order to explain in more depth the syntax of find, also will show how you can narrow down your search by adding condition on size and file modification time. 1. Find basis The default syntax of find is as such: find [path] [expression] where path is the path used as root for searching pattern and expression the expression we want the file to match. 2. Finding a file based on filename Let say for instance you want to find all .avi files in users home directories. Search files can be found with the following command: # find /home -name '*.avi' If you want to search for *.mpg and *.avi files, you will use the following: find /home -name '*.mpg' -o -name '*....

If you install mac ports under Mac, then run sudo port install "app_here"  and you recieve this error (the title), i have the solution. One word. $PATH. Open your .bashrc file (if you dont have it, create it), and add these lines export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin/:$PATH export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$MANPATH (the first, for the port command and the second for the manpages of port command. Yea, i know its obvious... :P) Ciao!

First we need a compressed file, tar -cvvzf file.tar.gz file.something Now, we split the compressed file, split -b 10M file.tar.gz "prefix_here" (parts of 10 megas with the prefix "prefix_here") To join the parts: cat "prefix_here"* > file_joined.tar.gz  And thats all! :)

ISight I always wondered, how about taking photos throught console? I mean, without using PhotoBooth. Making bash scripts that use the built-in camera would be awesome!

Una alternativa es mantener las teclas Alt (izquierdo)+System Rescue (Print Screen) y escribir REISUB. donde R - Devuelve el control al teclado (Raw) E - Manda todos los procesos al term, es decir, los hace terminar (End) I - Manda los procesos al Kill. S - Sincroniza el disco duro (Sync) U - Desmonta todos los sistemas de ficheros (Unmount) B - Por último, reinicia el ordenador. (reBoot) nunca me acuerdo esto yo
