Aesthedeck Mac OS

Mac OS X & macOS names. As you can see from the list above, with the exception of the first OS X beta, all versions of the Mac operating system from 2001 to 2012 were all named after big cats. The operating system performs basic operations such as starting programs, reading data from the disks, controlling the display and sound, etc. All apps that run on any computer use operating system in order to interact with the user or various computer components. Is it OSX or macOS? For a long time, the operating system on Mac was called OSX. OS X Yosemite (/ j oʊ ˈ s ɛ m ɪ t i / yoh-SEM-it-ee; version 10.10) is the eleventh major release of macOS, Apple Inc.' S desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers. OS X Yosemite was announced and released to developers on June 2, 2014, at WWDC 2014 and released to public beta testers on July 24, 2014. A Graphical User Interface (GUI for short) allows users to interact with the computer hardware in a user friendly way. Over the years a range of GUI’s have been developed for different operating systems such as OS/2, Macintosh, Windowsamiga, Linux, Symbian OS, and more. We’ll be taking a look at the evolution of the interface. Avast Free Antivirus is an extremely safe and exceptionally powerful antivirus for Macs, because it will secure your Mac against all sorts of online threats, including viruses and other malware.

When you’re working with different Macs, it is a hassle to move from one computer to another just to complete simple tasks. For example, printing a document on a different Mac means copying the file on your computer first, then logging into that other Mac to print it from there. This happens when the file can’t be opened using your Mac or the app required to launch the file is outdated.

Copying the file to another computer is too troublesome, especially if it involves a lot of files. Fortunately, Apple has made it easier to control another Mac on the same network using AppleScripts and Remote Apple Events. Thanks to these technologies, Mac users can now access, launch apps, and perform basic tasks remotely. Users don’t have to get up from their seats just to listen to iTunes, send a message using the Messages app, or send an email to contact.

Remote access is useful if you have two or more Macs at home or in the office. Although you can remotely control another Mac on the same network using the Shared feature, using AppleScript commands and the AE Server is a lot faster. Plus, you don’t need to open the Shared screen feature to do so.

What is the AE Server?

If you’ve noticed the AE Server running in the background and you’re not familiar with this feature, you’re probably asking yourself: what is the AE server on my Mac?

Pro Tip: Scan your Mac for performance issues, junk files, harmful apps, and security threats
that can cause system issues or slow performance.

The AE Server, also known as the AppleEvents Server, handles the Remote Apple Events on macOS. This enables applications on other Macs to send Apple Events to the local computer. This might seem complicated, but it is actually a lot simpler than it sounds.

The AppleScript, which is the built-in user-level scripting system on macOS, allows Mac users to automate repetitive tasks, extend the apps’ abilities, and even create stand-alone apps using a relatively simple language. The AppleScript communicates with macOS and the target individual applications using a simple messaging system called Apple Events.

What the AE Server does is to receive and execute the AppleScript and send it to it another Mac computer. Sending the AppleScript is not enough to perform the task, it should be approved by the receiving computer through the Remote Apple Events.

Your Mac can accept Apple Events from applications running on other Mac computers. Apple Events are tasks being performed on macOS, such as open this document or print this document. With Remote Apple Events switched on, an AppleScript running on another Mac can remotely control your local Mac or perform tasks, such as printing documents or opening applications.

For Macs running on macOS Catalina, AppleEvents and AppleScripts that target a program on a remote system should be authenticated by the same user on that remote system. Otherwise, the user will receive a procNotFound error.

How to Enable the AE Server on a Mac

In order to instruct another Mac on your network, you need both AppleScripts and the Remote Apple Server for it to work. The AppleScripts contain the instructions for the task you want the other Mac to perform while the AE Server authorizes and executes the instructions. You can tell another Mac to shut down, play a song, visit a website, or display an alert using these features.

To enable the Remote Apple Server or the AE Server on your Mac, follow these instructions:

  1. On your Mac or the Mac, you want to remote control, click on the Apple menu, then choose System Preferences.
  2. Click Sharing, then tick off the Remote Apple Events checkbox.
  3. Specify the users who can send events:
    • All users: Any of the users on your computer and anyone on your network can send events to your Mac.
    • Only these users: Click the Add (+) button, then choose the users who can send events. Users & Groups refer to all the users on your computer. Network Users and Network Groups refer to the people on your network.

Once you have followed these steps, the users you specified can now send AppleScripts to your Mac. You will still need to log in using that Mac’s admin username and password to authenticate the AppleScript.

But before running the AppleScript, clean up your computer first using a Mac cleaning software to make sure that your computer is performing at its best.

As with all sharing features, you should enable Remote Apple Events only if you’re sure that you need it. A malicious third-party who knows your Mac’s IP address, as well as your username and password, could steal information from your Mac, hijack your device, or override your session. If you don’t need to send instructions to another Mac, it is best to leave this feature disabled to close off all unnecessary avenues of attack.

To disable the Remote Apple Server, you can either turn it off using the Sharing menu (Apple menu > System Preferences > Sharing > Remote Apple Events) or type in the following command using Terminal:

/usr/bin/sudo /bin/launchctl disable system/com.apple.AEServer

Restart your computer for the changes to take effect. Your AE Server should now be disabled.

How to Write AppleScripts

Enabling the Remote Apple Server is just one part of the equation. Next, you need to write the AppleScripts with the instructions of what you want your Mac to do. For this, you need to use the AppleScript Editor or the Script Editor under Finder > Utilities. Once the editor is open, you can then write the script by clicking File > New.

Here are some of the scripts you can try:

  • Put Mac to Sleep

tell application “Finder” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac″
sleep
end tell

  • Open iTunes

iTunestell application “iTunes” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
play
end tell

  • Quit iTunes

tell application “iTunes” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
stop
end tell

  • Launch Safari

tell application “Safari” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
activate
end tell

  • Quit Safari

Aesthedeck Mac Os Catalina

tell application “Safari” of machine “eppc://IP Address of the target Mac”
quit
end tell

Once you have created these AppleScripts, you can save them on your Mac and run them when you need to. You will need to enter the target Mac’s username and password to execute the AppleScript.

Aesthedeck Mac Os 11

I’ve been using Apple’s Macintosh computers since 1984, yep the year they came out. Since that time I have been a big fan of them, and have owned 11 different models, 8 desktops, and 3 laptops.I have also been using PC’s since 1981 when they ran on DOS. I have used Windows from it’s inception up to XP.Having used both over many years, it still surprises me that Windows remains the dominant platform. I often get into debates about which one is better, and often even when the other party grants that Apple makes better products, they claim they are too expensive.I’m going to leave the whole stability question out of this article and instead concentrate on specific differences between the two platforms that I feel make Macs worth that extra money. (It really is hard to leave that stability issue alone though after seeing so many friends and clients loose work and data to viruses, or have their Windows machines slow down so much because of their virus protection programs hogging resources.)These are listed in random order, as I think of them.1. PDFs – Apple’s operating system includes the ability to create PDF files from any application. Windows you need to purchase Adobe’s Acrobat program to get the same functionality which will cost you an additional $300.If you need to combine two or more PDF files into one, on a Mac you can use the provided program Preview to do this. With Windows, you need to buy Acrobat.2. Screen Shots – Macs have always had the ability to take a screen shot simply by pressing Command-Shift-F3 and you get a nice shutter sound as confirmation. It leaves the screen shot as a file on your desktop. OS X also includes a program called Grab that provides lots of other options for screen capture. Windows users can press the PrtScn key (which under DOS actually sent the screen to the printer) and find that nothing really happens. Until you open a graphics program, and select paste. Then you have to save the file. 8 steps vs. 1 for the Mac. In my web design work, I often ask clients for a screen shot when trying to solve layout problems (usually caused by Internet Explorer). It amazes me how many Windows users I have to explain the procedure to.Speaking of Internet Explore, that brings up two related items:3. Mac OS X includes one of the best browsers out there, Safari. It is known for displaying HTML and CSS code as the standards define them. Windows, on the other hand includes Internet Explorer, the absolute worst browser out there. While each version of IE has gotten better about following standards, the early ones were so buggy that they’ve left a path of destruction all over the Internet. Webmasters regularly pull their hair out and have sleepless nights because they can’t get their web sites to work with all the different buggy versions of IE out there. Every time Microsoft fixes one they create another so many sites end up serving different content to each and every version of IE that hits their site.4. To test a web site design I’m working on, I need to be able to open it in all of the major browsers out there. On the Mac I can install and run multiple versions of the same program. On Windows you can’t do this because different programs use external library programs that also get updated and prevent backwards compatibility. Not only is this helpful for browser testing but it’s handy for other purposes as well. I have three different versions of Photoshop installed on my Mac, CS, CS3 and CS5. Adobe has a habit of removing features in newer versions so sometimes it’s easier to open the older version to complete some tasks then try to figure out how to do it in the new version.5. Apple’s OS X supports running Windows (or multiple versions of Windows) either natively through BootCamp, or as emulation through various software programs. The reverse is not true. So Apple’s computers can run more software than Windows computers.6. Apple support. Even if you don’t sign up for Apple Care, you get support from the company that has consistently been ranked number 1 in the tech business. After experiencing the support with Apple Care, I’ll never buy a computer without it again. But most importantly, because your hardware and software come from the same vendor, there is no blame game played when you call with a problem. With Window’s you problem could be caused by the cpu, the graphics cards, the keyboard, the mouse, the hard drive or Windows, all of which might be different vendors and each can say it’s not their problem until you’re left spinning in circles.7. Apple includes more hardware than those lower priced machines you see advertised. I remember back in the early 90s when every Apple shipped with Ethernet built in. PCs you had to add and configure a card, and good luck if the Ethernet card didn’t cause a conflict with your modem card because they shared the same Com port. Oh you had to open the PC and move some dip switches and jumpers to get it to work? Isn’t that handy! So yeah, now Windows has caught up and has plug and play. In my experience it sort of works, but not to the level that Apple’s does. On a recent forum someone was mentioning how expensive the new Mac Mini was at $799. Funny thing was that when I compared it to a similar package called the Pandora Mini and configured them the same, the Pandora ended up being several hundred dollars more expensive because the cheap base price only included things like 512 meg of memory, vs. 4 gig for the Mac Mini.
