By default, a new install of OSX doesn't let iShowU see mouse and keyboard events. In that iShowU can create mouse and keyboard compositing animations, you need to 'enable' this in system Preferences. Here's how you do it: • Open up System Preferences, and click on Security and Privacy • Choose the tab named Privacy, then select Accessibility from the list on the left hand side. Click on the Lock on the bottom left to make changes: • Ensure that the checkbox to the left of iShowU Instant / iShowU Studio 2 is enabled. Note that this doesn't mean iShowU is going to 'control' your computer. The product is only 'reading' key and mouse events as they happen. I definitely am not going to make these changes. See absolutely no reason to do it. Was never necessary in Snow Leopard or Lion. Been using iShowU for four years and it has been great until the nag to enable assistive devices started. ![]() Besides that iShowU is a train wreck in Mavericks: sometimes records sometimes doesn't and audio is not very good most of the time. The capture border never appears now, instead I get a little colored blinking smudge in the bottom right of the Apple bar icon, which does not show me the part of the screen being captured. Also, it has been responsible for two totally black screen events requiring power cycling. The first of these occurred when the computer would not awaken from a scheduled sleep cycle and iShowU had been left open. The second happened when I responded to the nag screen by clicking Show Me. Without Assistive Devices enabled the keyboard shortcuts still work so why do I need to enable a potential RAD window? Please fix these problems. Why does TextExpander force me to enable access for assistive devices? For privacy reasons (see above), Mac OS X does not allow third-party applications (such as TextExpander) to log keystrokes, unless access for assistive devices is turned on. Cinch requires us to 'Enable access to assistive devices'. However this option is not found on OS X Mavericks > System Preferences. Osx block adobe connections. Macos mac mavericks software.

With the release of macOS 10.13 High Sierra, you’re probably wondering whether your Adobe software will work in the new Mac operating system. With every macOS upgrade, full information about compatibility is typically not available on the day the new system is released or even shortly after. More information emerges over time, especially as Apple, Adobe, and other software developers test with the final public release and produce updates with fixes. I’ll update this article as new information comes out. If you use your Mac to run a business or another activity where you can’t afford to lose productivity, do not upgrade to High Sierra until you’ve made plans to fully recover your previous configuration if things don’t work out. (That applies to any operating system upgrade on any device.) Wait until you are confident that all of your software and hardware is compatible, then back up everything, then upgrade. ![]() To make the best use of my time and yours, I focus on verified reports or reports acknowledged by Adobe, and generally avoid repeating random anecdotes. But I do mention my own experiences. The next section is about recent Creative Cloud versions. If you’re looking for information about older versions, jump to: Official statements and verified reports Note: On October 18, 2017, Adobe announced the 2018 release of Creative Cloud applications and made them available for download. These are the most compatible with High Sierra. Adobe typically publishes compatibility information after they have had a chance to test with the version actually released to the public, so expect this section to be updated over time. Here is what’s known so far: High Sierra compatibility FAQ Adobe has posted a document covering High Sierra compatibility with Adobe Creative Cloud applications in general ( ). As Mac users, we’re spoiled when it comes to managing our tasks. There are several cross-platform and web-based task management tools we can use. But, even better, this is a category of apps that are well-represented by Apple developers. In fact, the options are plentiful enough that choosing just one productivity app to use is not easy. And for those of us who naturally focus more on process than outcomes, it can be downright debilitating to land on the best productivity app. Managing Knowledge Work in 2018 There are a couple of factors to keep in mind when choosing the best productivity app for Apple users. First, thanks to the focus from development teams, this has been a competitive space. Teams like the and have taken turns making the product of choice for many app users, and we’ve all benefited from having more than one option. Second, how knowledge workers manage their work has had a lot of attention. Since David Allen first published in 2001, personal productivity became a household term. However, over the past 17 years, there have been numerous other types of “systems” and methods shared online. It turns out that not all knowledge workers care for GTD’s long list of lists and specific processes. As a result, there are a lot of other styles of tools available to choose from today. Some folks make a case for ditching your task manager and using the calendar instead. Others swear that habits are more important than goals and projects. And no matter what system you use, can help maintain your focus and energy levels while you work. And let’s not forget the resurgence of pen and paper — do you? Choosing a tool to meet your needs in 2018 requires a level of self-awareness about how you do your best work. ![]() To-do list apps are some of the oldest available apps on both iOS. And it's not just free for your phone the Wunderlist app also works for your iPad, Mac,. This list of Best Free Software for Mac OS now includes 282 applications in various categories. With the advent of 'iDevices', Mac OS has arguably become one of the fastest growing user bases in the last decade. What We’re Looking for in a Task Manager In many ways, our list of criteria has not changed much since 2014 when we first published our recommendation for this space. A task manager needs to be easy to get our ideas into, it should offer several organizational options, and it needs to be available on all our devices. However, other considerations have melted into the background. Do we need to look for apps that offer syncing? It’s pretty much a solved problem now and implicit in all our favorite tools. And although some of the newer alternatives to this space deserve a look, our recommendation will be limited to those tools that are genuinely focused on managing projects and tasks. ![]() Here are the criteria we considered in more detail. • Easy input: no matter what productivity method you practice, getting tasks, reminders, and ideas into your system must be as smooth and frictionless as possible. • Multiple types of work: a good task manager handles everything from large complex projects, to smaller projects, to single recurring tasks. Apr 2, 2015 - Massively multiplayer online role playing games (MMORPGs, for short) have been popular for years. And there are a lot on the Mac, as evidenced by this list. Where you pay once and play as much as you want; and free-to-play. Trending Discussions Rumored Hardware iPhone X iPhone XS. Can we even talk about the genre without mentioning World of Warcraft? I don’t think so. And despite its age and increased competition, it’s still our favorite and, we think, the best Mac MMORPG. The most successful MMO ever created, at one point WoW had over 12 Million subscribers, more than all its competitors combined. To be fair, WoW’s subscribers are decreasing, but there are still plenty of players around and 2016’s and the upcoming Battle for Azeroth expansions indicate Blizzard’s continued support of and belief in the franchise. Everything in WoW works great. The missions are fun, the dungeons are rewarding (yet, accessible) and the raids are hardcore as ever. The Player versus Player (PvP) is equally good, and there are professions, crafting, and countless other things to do. Leveling up and getting better gear will become your obsession. And with the expansion, WoW is set to become the best Mac MMORPG 2018 will deliver. Real Pricing: WoW offers a free trial that goes to level 20 but if you want to play this seriously, the game costs $49.99 up-front (including the all the expansions) and requires $14.99 per month. ![]() ![]() For a long time, Guild of Wars 2 was the only MMO that could compete with World of Warcraft. The Elder Scrolls and Final Fantasy 14 changed that, but Guild Wars 2 is still one of the top choices. What I love the most about Guild Wars 2 is that it does everything it can to limit the “ grinding” (you’ll hear a lot about grinding in this article). You know, killing 500 Level 1 rats to level up. Instead, Guild Wars 2 focuses on group events and worldwide stories to advance. The other thing that sets Guild Wars 2 apart is the fact that it doesn’t require a monthly subscription. This is a true World of Warcraft competitor that doesn’t ask for more money every month. This was already a big deal, but did even better. The core game is now free, though expansions are not. An MMO that can go up against WoW but is free? That makes Guild Wars 2 our runner-up. Real Pricing: The base game is completely free; there are two paid expansions available which you can get for $49.99 but you won’t ever have to pay a monthly subscription. A cross-platform open-world MMORPG, Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) is the only way for Mac gamers to get into the Elder Scrolls universe. And while there were various criticisms leveled at the game when it was first released, updates and fixes have firmly established it as one of the best MMORPG games for Mac around. Set in the same universe but at an earlier time than previous games in the series, ESO features a wide open world that you can explore and play in as you like. With a rich story, plenty of side quests, crafting, battles and more, ESO allows you to explore the world of Tamriel as you wish, alone or with your friends. While there are still technical issues with the game on MacOS, our experience with the game was mostly positive. • Pros Certified by one independent antivirus lab. Webcam protection. Very good phishing protection. Ransomware protection. Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac OS X release notes Version 8 To install Sophos Anti-Virus so that it is managed by Enterprise Console, see the startup guides on the Enterprise Console page. Remote management. Simple parental control. • Cons Parental content filter foiled by secure anonymizing proxy. Lacks exploit protection, malware deep-clean, download reputation check, keylogger protection, and other advanced features found in the Windows edition. • Bottom Line Sophos Home Premium offers Mac antivirus protection at a very reasonable price, but the absence of many advanced features found in the Windows edition is disappointing. ![]() Sophos is a big name in enterprise-level security. With Sophos Home Premium on the Mac and the corresponding Windows product, the developers have brought a good dollop of that high-powered to ordinary users. ![]() Even the free products (on both platforms) offer convenient and powerful protection. Paying for Premium gets you a boatload of advanced features on Windows. Alas, most of these don't make it over to the macOS edition. Sophos Home Premium still provides good protection for Mac users at a reasonable price, however. Big businesses don't leave antivirus protection to their untrained employees. Rather, the IT Security department manages everything remotely. Sophos Home works the same way. You sign up for an online account, then either download the product to the device you're using or send an email link to install it elsewhere. All configuration occurs in the online console. Are you the go-to tech support agent for your family? With Sophos, instead of having to drive across town to help Cousin Mel with her antivirus, you can handle it all remotely. Pricing and OS Support Mac users often justify skipping antivirus protection on the basis that there just isn't a lot of Mac malware. Why spend money on something you might not need? Mac malware is on the rise, however, so you really should install protection. The most common price point for Mac antivirus is just under $40 per year for a single license. Half of the current products fit that model, and most of those give you three licenses for $59.99 per year. With, that $59.99 subscription price gets you not three licenses but unlimited licenses. You can install it on all the macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS devices in your household. Compared to these commercial products (well, perhaps all but McAfee), Sophos is a bargain. For $50 you can install Sophos Home Premium on up to 10 devices, Mac or PC, and manage them remotely. At $5 per device per year, it isn't free, but it sure isn't expensive. My experience has been that Mac users are more likely to keep their operating systems fully updated than their Windows-loving counterparts. Even so, not everyone has the very latest macOS installed. Like McAfee, Sophos supports older versions back to Yosemite (10.10). That's a change since the previous edition, which went all the way back to Mountain Lion (10.8)., Norton, and Trend Micro require at least El Capitan (10.11), the toughest OS requirement of my current collection of Mac antivirus products. Online Dashboard Differences As with the free edition, clicking Manage Devices or Preferences from the Sophos widget's menu takes you to the online dashboard. You can also just log in directly from any browser. The main page lists your protected devices. If you haven't used up all 10 licenses, you can click Add Device to either install on the device you're using or send a link by email. If you've replaced one of your computers, you can remove it from the dashboard, freeing up that license for reuse. The difference between the Windows and macOS editions are more pronounced in the premium edition. You just get more with on Windows. The Status page looks the same, with panels for Antivirus Protection, Web Protection, Ransomware Protection, Privacy Protection, and Malicious Traffic Detection, but when you dig deeper the differences become evident. The General sub-page, below Protection, looks the same on both platforms. Clicking Ransomware gets you a simple on/off switch for Ransomware Protection, but the Master Boot Record Protection component, available for Windows devices, isn't there. The Exploits sub-page, home to the most advanced features, doesn't appear at all for Macs. That means you don't get protection against known attacks on vulnerable applications. You don't get the somewhat-arcane Risk Reduction features. Since there are no protected applications, you also don't get the glowing green border and see-through tags that identify such applications in Windows. ![]() With Uniden Security Mobile Apps, you can view a live-stream of your video surveillance feeds from anywhere. Control your system, receive alerts, and monitor activity real-time to stay on top of your home’s protection. Uniden's Guardian G2720 security kit is an attempt by the company to make home or office surveillance systems as simple as possible to install and use. The kit comprises two wireless cameras, one 7in tablet-style monitor and a base for the tablet. Video can be monitored live on the tablet, over a home network, or over the Internet. You don't even have to know much about networking to get all that working either — it's very much plug-and-play. ![]() The quality of the video from the cameras is adequate, though video size is small in order to facilitate recording, and frame rates can vary depending on how good the camera signals are. Setting up the Uniden Guardian is just a matter of finding appropriate locations and power points for the two cameras and then switching everything on so that they can be found by the base unit. You probably won't want to put the cameras too far from the base unit — when we placed the cameras further than 10m from the base unit, the frame rate ended up falling dramatically. The cameras can be fixed with screws up high on a wall or ceiling if they are to be used for security purposes, but because the cameras have external antennas that screw into the back, you'll need to make sure there is enough space for the antenna above the camera's mounting spot. The metal stands on the cameras are adjustable; they have ball joints that allow for vertical and horizontal movement. This joint felt a little too soft and loose, and we had to really tighten the butterfly screw hard in order to make the camera not move at all from its desired angle. Each camera will need to be plugged into a wall outlet and the power adapters have about 4m worth of cable to work with. You can place the cameras outdoors as they are weatherproof, and they also have infrared LEDs, which means they can work at night. As we mentioned earlier, you won't want to position the cameras too far from the main base unit. The specs say they can do 150m, but we found the range to be much less in our test environment at the office. The cameras run in the 2.4GHz frequency spectrum (using frequency-hopping spread spectrum and encryption), and they can, in some instances, cause interference to your wireless network (unless you are running a 5GHz Wi-Fi network). We noticed this after experiencing very slow file transfers (under 500KBps) to one of our laptops while the Uniden Guardian was on, and faster transfers (up to 10MBps) while the unit was off. Using the Guardian kit isn't hard. The cameras are paired to the base station by default — we didn't have to do anything ourselves to connect them — and you can see video on the screen practically straight away. Up to four cameras are supported and viewable on the 7in screen at once. We were able to view our two cameras with ease and the beauty of the system is that it also allows you to record streams from these cameras directly to the base's SD card (a 4GB card is supplied with the unit). The 7in tablet unit is very easy to use as the screen supports touch. It's resistive though, which means that sometimes you have to press firmly in order to get something to work, and we found that we did have to press quite hard most of the time (a new firmware was released to remedy this somewhat). You can simply press on each quadrant of video to make it full screen, and you can press on the menu button on the left to enter the system settings — not there are many — and also to enable Internet mode (as long as the base is connected to your local area network via an Ethernet cable). The quality of the video from the Guardian's cameras was generally good during our tests, but quite small at 320x240 pixels — we couldn't find a way to change this. Because the cameras are designed to have a wide field of view, there is some distortion on straight vertical lines, which manifests as a slight curve. Microphones are also installed, and you can hear audio through the tablet if you tap on the camera to full-screen the view that you want to listen to. Frame rates were smooth as long as we kept the cameras within a good distance of the base unit, but at the outer reaches of the range the frame rate dropped to less than one per second.

Do you have the downloadable on any of the old machines? If so, you could transfer it then reinstall it. I can't see it on any of the mirror or oldversion sites (and it might be suspect even if so, as we don't know the hashes.) (You could also ask in the Mac subs if anyone has the old download knocking about.) OSX 10.7 - Lion - came on a memory stick, one of them is sufficient to upgrade all your machines ($40 at ebay, £15 at brit ebay), and 10.7 would be then be enough for the mbam replacement for TSM Adware Removal to be used. I have the TSM Adware Removal tool on my utility drive but opening it now only shows a large string of text that must be force quit out of. ![]() I'm assuming the tool redirected to their website to check for updates and now that the product has been purchased by Malwarebytes the redirect is broken and therefore the tool is broken. 10.7 also runs like junk on these machines so we will not update them past 10.6.8. $40 is also about $40 more than we want to spend on these machines since we are planning on phasing them out but again, we don't have the $$ in the budget. That's not the behaviour of a broken tool, that's the behaviour of a broken association somewhere, or the behaviour of a never-worked-at-all-failed download. Humour me, and run that tool on one of the target machines (or one of the other target machines) and see what happens; then approach the mac subs. Also, take note that you can copy off the Lion stick, so accomplish the upgrade for free. Macs are great, but is your machine infected? But Macs don’t get viruses, right? Mac operating systems are of course built with inherently better security than the Microsoft option, but the myth that Macs don’t get viruses is just that, a myth. Recent research by showed that despite a smaller userbase than PCs, malware, ransomware, spyware and phishing attempts, collectively increased by 270 percent in 2017, alone. Free versus paid for So basically when it comes to security and peace of mind for your Apple Mac, you have two options; either free or paid for. Free anti-virus software’s main advantage is just that, it’s free. And that can be a very enticing offer. On the plus side, you get security software that is free, and in many respects is just as good as it’s paid for siblings, at least when it comes to basic security. On the downside, it does tend to come with advertising, and free versions are also quite often time-limited. There’s also the fact that with free antivirus, there’s a manual element involved. Generally, it’s up to you to remember to run a scan, and you don’t get all the comprehensive protection and added benefits that come with the premium options. If you are on an extremely limited budget, then a free antivirus is a better option than none at all. It has everything we look for in the best antivirus for Mac. Feature Antivirus Firewall Parental Controls Backup Mac Cleaner. Mac Premium Bundle X9 is an awesome security suite that comes bundled with the multiple applications: VirusBarrier, NetBarrier, ContentBarrier, Personal Backup, and Mac Washing Machine. But, and it’s a pretty big but, the price for complete security and peace of mind, could cost you a lot less than you think. Paid virus protection systems often include useful extras such as backup and recovery tools, useful if your Mac crashes, but they also invariably come with Mac unique performance enhancement utilities that ensure that your Mac runs as efficiently and optimally as well. There is also the advantage of high quality customer support and technical back-up, often lacking in free software versions. One more thing before we go any further: In real terms all of the below choices have scored very highly in independent 3rd party testing. In terms of protection and detecting threats, the difference between all of them in stopping malware dead is literally non-existent, or at least around the same difference as splitting hairs under a microscope. That means we’re not going to go into microscopic detail about all of it. But suffice to say, they are all: • Very good antivirus products • They will keep your Mac safe • They are all very good at what they do • They will all give you peace of mind. Basically, just because you’re on a Mac doesn’t mean you aren’t spoiled for choice. So with that said, here’s what we consider to be The best antivirus for Mac as of July, 2018. Antivirus Product Sophos Home Premium Norton security Premium Kaspersky Internet Security Rating ★★★★★ ★★★★☆ ★★★★☆ Best For Value and usability for home users Trusted and well-known provider Performance and anti-tracking Price Trial Period 30 days 30 days 30 days Virus & Malware Detection ✅ ✅ ✅ Ransomware Protection ✅ ✅ ✅ Parental Web Control ✅ ✅ ✅ Devices covered Up to 10 Up to 10 Up to 3 24/7 Customer Support ✅ ✅ ? Sophos Home Premium Best Value and Ease of Use for Home and Non-Commercial Use. Sophos Home Premium is a hecking good antivirus for Mac ✅ Great value ✅ Easy to use ✅ 24/7 email and chat support???? Free version is limited is a highly recommended and well respected security option for Mac. Perhaps the most appealing aspect of Sophos, initially at least, is that it’s free; kind of. Basically, when you install Sophos you get the full premium version free for 30 days. After that 30-day period, while you’ll get to keep some of the features like real time anti-virus and parental web filteringsome of the premium options will no longer be available. ![]() But that said, does have it all going on, including some features you’d normally only find in separately bought software. Now, yes, the free version does rate very highly, and is effective. It will keep viruses and malware off your Mac, but the premium version is worth considering. As well as excellent virus protection it also comes with ransomware monitoring, real-time cloud-based configuration protection, and a very modest but generous 10 licenses from only one subscription. Now, while that does bely the fact that this is anti-virus for domestic use, that’s not something to sniff at. Premium also offers that 24/7 email and chat support, which is nice. Pricing – • A year’s subscription will set you back $40, or £32. ![]() Norton Security Premium for Mac Anti-Virus option for Mac you’re most likely to have heard of and can trust. Norton Secure Premier is another strong contender for best Mac antivirus ✅ Quick and easy installation ✅ Great value when on sale ✅ 24/7 email and chat support???? Most expensive option (when not on sale) Norton is one of those names in the anti-virus market that has been around forever.
