Is it possible to set up a folder on a remote Mac disk (in this case a Time Capsule) as a "network share"? I don't see anything in the Airport Utility to do this. The root directory seems to be a share, but I need a sub-directory to also be a share. The background to this is that I have a Sonos audio system that can use local network ...
I recently installed the Macports port of Ruby19 and it's changed my environment settings to point to opt/local in the first instance rather than usr/local where I have my standard 1.8.7 install. I've tried updating my ~/.profile by adding the usual export PATH etc. as the last line but to no avail. I have to run the .profile file each ...
I'm looking for a collaborative editor that doesn't suck :) And that at least supports Ruby syntax highlighting. Also, a developer and I will be using this to program, so Google Docs won't work. In all reality, I just need a collaborative editor that has the concept of a project. Where both users see the folder structure of a project an...

I'm having trouble with a website of ours that is not displaying images on Mac Safari The exact same website is on a dedicated server and works fine. When we moved it to a load balanced environment the images stop working only in Mac Safari, but still works in all other browsers including windows safari, and Firefox on the mac that had ...
Hi there, I'm developing an OS X kernel extension (kext) that will be used as an I/O Kit driver. This driver, however, will be strictly "virtual"; it will not interface with any hardware. OS X keeps a catalog (I/O Catalog) of all the drivers that are loaded into the kernel. It also keeps a registry (I/O Registry) containing the I/O Cat...
Xcode's help system includes documentation for all the Cocoa and Carbon APIs. However, it would be nice to also have documentation for the standard C and C++ libraries, POSIX APIs, BSD system calls, etc., integrated into the same system. Are additional Xcode documentation sets available, or is there any way to integrate man pages or ot...
What I basically trying to achieve is to change the formatting of a cell in a table to blank it out if the cell is not enabled. To define whether a cell in a table column is enabled I've bound using the enabled binding and this is working fine, enabling the cells in some rows of the table and not in others. I have defined a sub-class ...
There are numerous post over the net that detail how relative paths don't work in Xcode. I do have an Xcode template that I downloaded where the relative paths DO work, however I have not been able to figure out why nor replicate it in other projects. Firstly, I am using C++ in Xcode 3.1. I am not using Objective-C, nor any Cocoa/Carbon...
I am having trouble creating a new table on a specific sheet using Applescript unless the sheet I want insert the new table in is either new or current selected. The general form of the code I am using is: tell application "Numbers" tell document 1 tell sheet "This is the sheet I want to use" make new table with proper...

I'm trying to construct a CABasicAnimation to animate the backgroundColor property of a Core Animation CALayer, but I can't figure out how to properly wrap a CGColorRef value to pass to the animation. For example: CGColorSpaceRef rgbColorspace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB(); CGFloat values[4] = {1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0}; CGColorRef red =...
I am already quite familiar with relational databases and have used SQLite (and other databases) in the past. However, Core Data has a certain allure, so I am considering spending some time to learn it for use in my next application. Is there much benefit to using Core Data over SQLite, or vice versa? What are the pros/cons of each? I ...
Note: This is the opposite direction to most similar questions! I have an iPhone application which I would like to provide a demo of on the Mac. How hard is it to recompile (or rewrite) iPhone applications into Mac applications, assuming I intend to keep the same screen size, and not worry about making my application look "mac-like"? I...
I understand that I need to have a mac for developing iphone applications as indicated here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/297533/hosted-mac-os-x-iphone-development And in other locations. What I'm not sure of, however, is what kind of mac would be good for this type of development? I've never done any kind of development on a m...
I'm learning objective-c, working through Aaron Hillegass' book "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X - Third Edition". I'm working in Xcode to develop some of the example code, and keep getting a compiler warning on the last line of this method: - (void) setEntryDate:(NSCalendarDate *) date { [date retain]; [entryDate release]; e...

I'm using xcode in C++. I'm trying to debug my project, but at random intervals, it seems to ignore my breakpoints. There are three things that it does: 1) Sometimes, when I run, it automatically switches to "de-activate break points" mode. (the relevant button goes light and says "Activate") 2) Sometimes when I run, ALL of my breakpoi...
It's meant to return an OSType, but instead I'm just getting -50. Does anyone have any idea what error this represents? I can't find it anywhere. A code snippet for context (the error is so ambiguous I don't know what snippet to paste, here's pretty much everything): ExtAudioFileRef cafFile; AudioStreamBasicDescription cafDesc; cafDes...
While debugging a program in XCode I have several CFStringRef variables that point to strings with lengths around the 200 character mark. In the debugger, it only shows the value of these strings up to a certain length and then just ellipses them away. I'd really like to see the full value of the strings. Is there some option I can con...
