April 23, 2012 - Hammondsport Mac Users Group TOPIC: Post Processing Digital Photos - Part II (free and easy) Meeting was canceled due to the Library closing (due to the impending snowstorm).
But if you had been there........... you would have heard about some great free (or cheap) apps to enhance your pictures........such as these:
HOW TO ----- How to use Terminal Utility to change the location and format of Mac screenshots. ----- How to use Terminal Utility to check for Flashback malware. ----- How to open very old AppleWorks and Word docs in Lion 10.7 (Thanks, Jerry) ----- How to improve the security of your Mac in 10 simple steps
ALERT - RECENT MALWARE Flashback Malware - read Symantec's description of this Trojan - also called Flashfake. FlashbackChecker1.0 - free app to check for malware for OS10.5 PPC and Intel macs. SabPubTrojan - read article by Charles Moore - silmilar to actual Apple launcher called PubSub. SabPub Checker 1.0 - free app to check for malware for OS10.5 PPC and Intel macs. NOTE: For Macs running Mac OS X v10.5 or earlier, you can better protect yourself from this malware by disabling Java in your web browser(s) preferences. UPDATE (5/2012) : Apple releases Flashback Removal Security Update and Leopard Security Update 2012-003 for OSX 10.5.8. Java vs Javascript - what's the difference? JavaScript is completely different than Java. The name is only similar because the syntax of the JavaScript language mirrors some of that in Java, but the similarities end there. JavaScript is required for many Web sites to function properly, and is not involved with the exploit that has been used to compromise Mac systems.
