I’ve written an Automator workflow that will download the MVPS HOSTS file and place it in the /private/etc folder. The workflow can be saved as an iCal plugin to run automatically, and does most of its work in the background — it does ask for a password when it replaces the old hosts file, though. After downloading the Automator workflow...
Mac OS X occasionally gets hung up on stubborn files and refuses to easily delete them. If you can’t empty your Mac’s Trash, try some of these techniques to get rid of those nasty errors and clear out the junk.

I have multiple mail accounts and folders set up in Mail, including the Junk folder.

I’ve written a few bash functions to interact with the normal Mac OS X trash can. This is actually slightly more complicated that it sounds at first, since the trash can is not just a folder somewhere. Each volume has its own trash, and your home folder has a trash can.

This hint enables you to turn off (and back on) moving files to Trash when deleting files, thus deleting them immediately when the trash is off. This hint takes advantage of the fact that if the .Trashes folder in a user’s home folder is not accessible, Mac OS X ignores it and displays an immediate file deletion warning like the one seen...
There are many ways to show and hide the various hidden files and folders in Mac OS X. This one is an update to an older Automator workflow method.

Refer to the previous hint for usage in either Leopard or Tiger....
When I need a container of files, or of a directory that is already compressed (i.e. jpg images), there is no need to ‘compress’ into a zip file, so the following OS X Service will replicate the Compress ‘right-click’ with tar : Open Automator and select Service from the main screen.

Generally, when files are dropped in your ~/Public/Drop Box you can only read them. You have to save a copy if you edit it.

Frequently we need to clean a directory before zipping it or copying it to an external USB drive to be used by Windows or Linux users. Apple Finder has the custom of populating directories with those unavoidable .DS_Store files, volumes with .Trashes , and some files (especially pictures) with ._resources . The following interactive script will...
