OSX Applications for a long, prosperous, happy life

VNC
Options for Installing Addtitional Software Apps/Programs
- Side-Load .pkg and .dmg installers

PROTIP: After installation, in the Finder, right-click on the installer to free up disk space.

Installer managers

Disney has open-sourced a repo,https://github.com/munki/munki,manages software installation for OS X.Munki can install software packaged in the Apple package format, and also supports Adobe CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6 Enterprise Deployment “packages”, and drag-and-drop disk images as installer sources - webserver-based repository of packages and package metadata.

VNC

Enable screen sharing on the server.
There are also 3rd-party apps to VNC into (typically Linux) servers:“Chicken of the VNC” sucks, CotVNC sucks,Real VNC at http://www.realvnc.com/download/viewer/
One that requires no additional downloads is “Screen Sharing” that Apple includes.
There are two ways to open it:
Press command+Tab to the Finder, then command+K for the “Connect to Server” dialog.
This enables you to select prior addresses.
Alternately, in a Safari browser tab and instead of typing protocol “http://” or “https://”, type “VNC://” followed by an IP address, such as:
vnc://35.197.119.148
The browser approach requires an extra step to click “Connect To” IP address at the pop-up confirmation page.
NOTE: This uses the “Screen Sharing” app within /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications since Yosemite.

VNC from Finder

Browser Plugins

HTML5 is supposed to avoid this hassle, but not everyone has gotten around to it.

PROTIP: Install browser plug-ins ahead of time before you eventually run into a site that requires it, and it would be a bother at that point.

Silverlight from Microsofttakes 36.5 MB of disk space.
Adobe Flash

Options for Installing Addtitional Software Apps/Programs

There are several ways to get software on a Mac, listed in order of preference:

Apple Store appsare the safest and simplest place to obtain apps. But many software publishers don’t want to give Apple a slice of the money.
Plus, Apple Store apps currently are installed by hand, not with automation scripts.
Execute Homebrew (or Bower) from an Ansible declarative playbook.
This is the automated equivalent to manually typing a Terminal command to use Homebrew
That automates manually downloading a zip file that contains a .dmg or .pkg file, then dragging it into the system Applications folder.
Lastly, one can always go to each publisher’s webpage, download it and run a pkg or dmg file.

A particular program may provide several options.

Install Apps from the Apple Store

Apps I’ve used from the Apple Store:

Microsoft Officeis supposed to read and writeWord, PowerPoint, Excel files created on PCs.
But since Office 2011 for Mac is a version behind Office 2013 for PC, styles and numbering in docx files sometimes get scrambled in Mac.
Office 2016 for Mac is $172.99 from Amazon.
Camtasia for Mac (from Techsmith) records videos of screens and provides an editor ( $99 from Amazon) (Don’t confuse this with Camtasia Studio for Windows)
Lynda Desktop app - reader for tutorial subscriptions at lynda.com.
Slack instant messaging
GoToMeeting for video conferencing.
ZoomUS for video conferencing.
Git-it to learn Git and GitHub.

Apps offered by Apple itself:

XCode
iMove
Keynote
iPhoto

Amazon Kindle

PROTIP: You can’t copy and paste text from Kindle’s app. But if you read your Kindle purchase on website https://read.amazon.com you can highlight the text and select Highlight pop-up, Kindle saves the text under your Amazon account at https://read.amazon.com/notebook.

Side-Load .pkg and .dmg installers

Open-source developers provide their software for downloadin files ending in .pkg or .dmg.

.pkg (package installers) are like a zip fileand like using the Setup.exe files on Windows.It can include scripts that provide installation logic such as show licence agreement; get installation destination; define which bits to install; etc.

It can overwrite existing files if it is scripted to do so within the PKG. Apple Remote Desktop can be used to push the PKG. ARD advantages.It can contain a signature.See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Installer_%28Mac_OS_X%29

Cisco Webex Add On Mac

.pkg files are creating using Composer and managed using Casper Admin.Popular .pkg installers include:

Prey software from PreyProject.com helps you track down your stolen laptop by taking a picture of the thief, sends out a GPS location, and deletes files. (Versions for Android, iOS, Linux, and Windows as well)
Version 1.5.0 took 8.7 MB on disk.

PROTIP: Click on the download icon on your browser to work with downloaded filesbecause the time-stamp of executable files downloaded to your Downloads folder retain the date they were created, not the (current time) downloaded.

DMG installers

.dmg (a disk image file like ISO) can use block mode for fast copying. It can install to all user profiles and, utilizing Pre and Post Flight through Composer.It can be made to overwrite files, especially in /Users folder, using FEU (Fill Existing Users) FFUT.It can can contain an index which provides self-healing and uninstall.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.dmgPopular .dmg installers include WebEx:

Open a browser to WebExPlayer which downloads filewebexnbrplayer_intel.dmg to the Downloads folder.
Open the Downloads folder: Right-click on the arrow next to the download file at the bottom of the browser.
Double-click on the .dmg file. A pop-up dialog containing a .pkg file appears.
Double-click on the .pkg file for the Install Network Recording Player dialog.
Click Continue.
Click Install.
Type your password and click 'Install Software'.
Click 'Close'.
Verify the program: Pinch 3 finders on the pad, and press W for the WebEx Player.
In Finder Downloads folder, control-click on the .dmg installer file and select Move to Trash.
Press command+Tab to the Network Recording Player.dmg and click the red dot at the upper left corner to close it.
On the Desktop, drag the Network Recording Player to Applications folder.

Personally, I like PKGs, primarily for its scripting capabilities.But it comes with risks.

uTorrent is a small program for downloading files using the Torrent protocolhackers prefer. Thus a high number of files (espcially movies) come with viruses.
TexFinderX is a donation tool to search and replace text inside entire folders. Versions for MacOS X, Windows XP, Vista, and Seven. The MacOSX downloads as TexFinderX_232_OSX.zip containing Droplets and TFXTables. Drag the unziped folder into your Applications folder.

Due to these security concerns,when you first double-click on such programs, Apple forces you to prove that you know what you’re doing with this pop-up:

Hold down the control key as you click the new app icon.
Choose Open in the shortcut menu.
Click Open in the pop-up.

Password Protection

I used to say that the first thing you do on a new Mac is backup.

Now I say the first thing is to install a password manager.They help you create strong passwords (after it finds old weak passwords)then automatically log you into websites and fill out forms.

First of all, 1Password has the audacity to charge more than anyone else.Actually that’s a plus for me.

There is LassPass, which offers 2-factor authentication while 1Password doesn’t.Others include Password Safe, SafeInCloud, etc.

BTW, since this 1Password Tutorial on YouTube by David A. Cox came out,1Password has a monthly pricing as well:

They both install an alternate browser on mobile devices.Neither support Windows Phone.

If you forget your master password, you’ll need to redo everything if you use LastPass.And it has no option to keep my passwords out of public clouds.

1Password allows me to keep the password vault local by syncing via wi-fi(.agilekeychain or .opvault files).

Install on Mac 1Password and pay $49.99 for integration with iCloud. It’s one of a very few 5 star rated apps (LastPass has 4 stars). Considering how nasty people can be on the internet, that’s a real accomplishment.

When opened, install the Safari Extension from Agilebits.
The Android version rates at 4.5 and costs $9.99 each.

Firewall

Some apps “phone home” (particularly licensed apps) without informing you.

This is troubling because it uses up your network bandwidth.

$9 Radio Silence reports which apps are doing it,then blocks them.

Anti-Virus

thesafemac.com/mmg-defenseis proprably the most important page to read … and heedunless you want to pay Ransomware.

Skype

Skype only lets you view others’ screens.

Control Each Other’s TeamViewer

Teamviewer enables you to control the mouse and keyboard on others’ machine.

Webex

Emails containing a link to a webex recording such as this:

https://hp.webex.com/hp/lsr.php?RCID=6f738e10ed0449928edf158f3069e719

Clicking on this link the first time on a Mac triggers a download for Safari,Cisco_WebEx_Add-On.dmg

Cicso’s webex web page lists two programs:

For .ARF files, webexnbrplayer_intel.dmg invokes as Network Reocrind Player.pkg.- the Network Player does not allow downloaded files to be saved.
For .WRF files, webexplayer_intel.dmg invokes as WebEx Player.pkg.

ICQ

Microsoft Communicator

I don’t know anyone who uses this.

FTP (File Transfer Protocol)

FTP Client.

From your Mac desktop hit Command+K for the Connect to Server window (alternatively, you can access this from the Go menu).FTP to address: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org. Connect as Guest (no password).The advantage of using Filezilla is that configuration files can be imported fromother platforms.
