The only reliable way to create a remote print-screen is by using the Windows On-Screen Keyboard. It even works with Alt-Prt+Sc to make screenshots of individual Windows.
Just run OSK to start the On-Screen Keyboard.

When you’re not a frequent iTunes user, and recycle computer systems, then every once in a while you will get you in to a situation where you have Music on your iPod, but not on your PC any more.
Whereas iTunes is great at putting music on an iPod, it cannot get it back.
There are numerous paid tools to get the music from your iPod, but doing it manually is not that hard. Below are a few links to get you started, but they all come down to this:

During the last update of Microsoft Remote Desktop for my Mac, I noticed there is a beta available with a feature very familiar for users of visionapp – ASG-Remote Desktop: it allows you to manage common credentials.
Note the uncommon URLs of both the beta page redirect and the download:
In the mean time, I learned that “Microsoft has acquired HockeyApp. This is a tremendous opportunity to continue to provide developers with the best app development tools and users with the best app experiences.”, but the aka.ms is new to me. Anyone knows what it is about? A successor of go.microsoft.com/fwlink redirects?
New Mac OS X beta of Microsoft Remote Desktop announced.
I’m keeping an eye on this, as future features interest me much: Multiple monitors, Clipboard redirection, Remote Desktop Gateway, Remote Resources (RemoteApp and Desktop Connections), and Azure RemoteApp preview.
BTW: I wasn’t aware Remote Desktop made it this many platforms yet, as I’m mainly a Windows 8.x/7, Mac and Android user, but here you go:

I like how MaylorTaylor formulated his question around this topic on superuser:
“USB Deivces Disabled: unplug the device using too much power to re-enable USB devices.“
Basically he regression tested many permutations of devices, cables, ports, rebooting, etc.
I had a similar problem, and found it hard to track down as it was intermittent. In the end it was not 1 but 2 USB cables being not completely reliable.
So the warning can use some improvement:

Wow:
That’s (nah Triad) 50+ and 25+ Ampere hour of battery capacity.
Which is the similar to what car and motor cycle batteries can hold.

fseventer is a great tool for investigating Mac OS X file system events. Like many low-level tools, it requires admin privileges.
This is apparent through the use of the tool “fseventer” which monitors what files on your hard drive are being accessed.

Even after changing the name of your Mac, from the Windows side it still looks like this:
| C:\Users\developer>net view | |
| Server Name Remark | |
| ——————————————————————————- | |
| \\MACBOOKPRO-4C7F Jeroen's MacBook Pro | |
| The command completed successfully. |
I knew I had solved this in the past, as the MacBook Air showed up correctly in the list:
| C:\Users\developer>net view | |
| Server Name Remark | |
| ——————————————————————————- | |
| \\MACBOOKPRO-4C7F Jeroen's MacBook Pro | |
| \\MBAIR133JWP MBAIR133JWP | |
| The command completed successfully. |
The trick is that there are 2 names for your Mac: the name for the Apple side of things, and the name for the Windows side of things. For the latter you’d think it would be named SMB or NetBIOS. Read the rest of this entry »

One of the most frustrating things on a Mac is that the OS X Finder does not allow you to browse all paths.
Unlike Windows the Windows Explorer, where it is fairly easy to switch a preference for enabling/disabling showing the hidden files and folders, there is no option in the Preferences. There is a command-line trick (see below) to enable/disable showing hidden files and folders.
Luckily, both the Windows Explorer and the Mac OS X Finder allow you to specify the full folder path to browse, where you can enter a path that otherwise would (partially) be invisible.
Menu -> Go -> Go to Folder...), then enter the full path.An alternative for Mac OS X is the payed (but great tool) Path Finder which is one of the best Finder replacements I know.

Mac OS X has md5, but no md5sum.
I agree with Mac OS X: Replicating md5sum Output Format that the second way of emulating md5 is better than the first one.
So here it is:
| #!/bin/bash | |
| /sbin/md5 -r "$@" |

A long time fan of BgInfo on Windows, I was looking for a Mac OS X replacement.
And I found one: GeekTool is on steroids compared to BgInfo (:
Much more than I needed (plenty of add-on scripts too), but more than enough to get some simple text displayed.
