I suppose this could also be an iOS thread question, but: Just dumped about 1k of photos off my iPhone into iPhoto. There are two of every image. It's not because of HDR double-exposure; even my panoramas and photos taken with camera apps besides camera.app are duplicated. I've got about 1k of photos to sift through and manually delete now. What's up with that? I import a lot of photos from my iPhone on a regular basis. The only thing that's changed recently is that I did a backup/restore on my phone. I think this is the first import I've done since.

outlier posted:Huh - I've been holding off on the upgrade, because I'm not dying for any Yosemite feature and felt it was better to wait than potentially mess up any software I critically needed. It's FREE!! C'mon! It must be good. Buy just one other inter-operative iOS ecosystem Apple device, and it is a must. I guarantee it. The faster Apple pushes out the software, the longer I wait to use it. It's true that as of yet I don't use the wizwaz features of Continuity, etc. But that's because I like a firewall between my devices. When I use my phone, it's a phone, with a few apps. When I use a computer, it's not a phone, nor do I want it to be. Again I'm not the demographic, nor a guinea-pig. Oh and did I mention - it's ugly. Aesthetically it's still a bit garish (and I don't think of myself as someone who gives a rat's rear end about that stuff usually.) Maybe in time (when I have no other choice, if I want to use the hardware), I will like it. And my universe will be whole and complete. That's just me.

Anyone else with an Air have this sort of problem? I guess I should be a bit more specific about what was going on. Once I got to the point I was far enough overcommitted memory-wise, Yosemite would go into some weird thing where it wouldn't actually release the RAM, if the process using it was closed. If chrome was using 3GB, closing chrome wouldn't actually return 3GB to the 'free' pool. It'd release maybe half of it, with the rest vanishing into some deep dark hole in the VM. Hence, on a 4GB system, at some point I'd literally run out of usable RAM, even if no app was running that should have required it (and, in some cases, nothing running at all), requiring a reboot to clear this mess up.

Are you sure this isn't the compressor kicking in? If you close a process, the kernel would free up the compressed pages, not what Chrome actually used. Can you post a screenshot of Activity Monitor or something to show what you're seeing?

At this point no, as I've reverted to Mavericks, which has alleviated this issue as far as I can tell. It also doesn't get nearly as horribly slow once I hit 2 or so GB of swap.

Anyone else having weird WiFi bugs on Yosemite? After a few days of uptime, my rMBP stops being able to find my Time Capsule. It will just be greyed out in Airport Utility, Time Machine will not be able to find it. My Internet connection works though and I can ping the Capsule and access it from other machines. Turning WiFi off and then back on fixes it. It's just bizarre. I never had these problems before.

Yeah, that happened to me too, I couldn't access the data I had stored there, WiFi reboot fixed it, also Time Machine didn't work. It sorta fixed itself but now the WiFi symbol is doing this pulsing animation it does when it looks for a WiFi connection despite still being connected to the internet. No idea. I'm gonna update and reboot and see if that fixes it. Also the speed was terrible for a few days, affecting clients at random - iPhone, MacBook, and my dad's Windows laptop when he was visiting - full signal strength though. It's a Time Capsule 2 TB if it matters.

Might be because of a bug in Yosemite, detailed here almost two weeks ago. Seems that Apple switched from using mDNSResponder, a major network-related system process used in all OS X's from 10.2.x up until 10.9.x, to a new system daemon called discoveryd. They've done poo poo like this before, such as when they introduced launchd in OS X 10.4 Tiger to replace a bunch of other services in the name of streamlining. Of course since it's brand new, and discoveryd is based on mDNSResponder's code but rewritten from scratch in a douche-y manner, it doesn't work quite right.. Ars's cure, which they claim works 100%, is to perform surgery on Yosemite and remove discoveryd and replace it with mDNSResponder from OS X 10.9.5.. which is kind of extreme and definitely might gently caress up future system updates. Or, you could just kill discoveryd with a Terminal command and restart it, but that doesn't always work.

Binary Badger posted:Might be because of a bug in Yosemite, detailed here almost two weeks ago. …and as an added bonus, discoveryd will set itself to wake the machine — fully, none of this “power nap” or limited-utility wake — to ping and update its list of discoverable items in the network. Depending on the system and its setup, this may be a very slow and noisy process. Presumably, this is the same root problem: discoveryd is either fragile or stupid as hell (or both), and have to always check up on its surrounding or it'll seize up. Again, diking it out and replacing it with Mavericks version will solve these annoying repeated wake-up alarms going off. For a more future-proof version, you can also install a daemon that runs scripts on sleep and wake, and make that daemon unload discoveryd so it can't make the noise it would like.

BTW, Apple Remote Desktop was updated to v.3.8 and the client was updated to 3.8.2. The updates detail is as follows:Apple posted:Improved support for OS X Yosemite Took 'em long enough. Also, Remote Desktop 3.8 requires Yosemite 10.10.2 as it didn't show up before 10.10.2 was installed.

Aww. I missed the Alfred.app talk  Anyone tried Alfred Remote yet? I can't quite wrap my head around it. Isn't the point of Alfred to minimize the need to take your hands off of the keyboard? I've been trying to think of clever uses for it but I'm not coming up with much. I guess it'd be nice to lock my laptop from my phone if I get pulled away but that's not enough to justify $5.

I think Alfred Remote would be most helpful if you had some sort of media mac connected to a TV. Otherwise, yeah, I can't imagine using it on my primary machine. Hopefully someone comes up with a workflow that convinces me otherwise.

All you really need to do is boot into Internet Recovery (cmd+option+r at startup), pick disk utility (on the main screen or in the utilities menu depending on OS version), plug your hard drive in, wait for it to be detected then create a new disk image from your primary hard drive and save it to your external drive. Repeat the process but restore instead of capturing on the other Macs. The one thing to keep in mind is there's some references to the network hardware in the system preferences folder and you'll need to rename the Macs in the Sharing pane after you image them or you'll get errors about duplicate names. You can remove the networking references with single user mode if you really want to but it probably isn't going to cause any noticeable problems. There are better ways of doing this if it's going to be a regular thing but this should be enough for now.

Combo updates are back, baby!!! Apple finally posted the 10.10.2 Combo Update, available here. Evidently you can't have a 10.10.1 Combo because there's no in-between updates to combine. People who are having niggling / flakey issues with 10.10.2 might want to try the Combo update.

So I was updating my brew apps and the headphones thing that can grab music from places updated. Now it actually works for me, but it just saves all the music to a directory. Is there an app out there to just watch that directory and add the music to iTunes so it shows up in my match stuff? Every page I search for comes up with the directory that you copy files to that automatically adds to iTunes, but that is a dumb solution. I want to leave the files where they are, just add them to my library automatically. There are some solutions using smart folders or automator (something like that), but I don't know how well that will work.
