But the problem persists …Īny suggestion will be highly appreciated. Last night from a suggestion in MacRumors did scan with Malwarebytes and 9 issues were detected and cleaned. But the file is regenerated after every beach balling.Ī First-Aid run in Disk Utility showed no problem and same is the case with an extended apple diagnostic check. After every reboot I delete the “ApplicationSupport” file and it seems to help for some time. The file “Assistants” contains nothing and can’t be deleted. There are also two files “Assistant” and “Assistants”. MacOS has been sealed off more and more from third party software, therefore system maintenance tools like CleanApp can no longer function like in the old days. The ~/Library folder contains two files “Application Support” and “ApplicationSupport” (without any space between the words). It has inside it only one file “ApplicationContents”. Whenever the beach balling occurs, a file is created in the ~/Library folder with name “ApplicationSupport”. I must add that my battery is failing (runs at 65 %). An Etrecheck showed a couple of problems with adware which were deleted but no improvement. I also used the “deleteMackeeper.sh” file suggested elsewhere. First it was Mackeeper which I tried to remove following all discussions on the topic killing all related files in appearing in Launch Agent, Launch Daemon in the ~\Library folder. This problem started following some adware attack. After sometime there appears a folder with a question mark as if it is not able to locate the boot disk.īut it boot as expected after a forced switching off. It shows a kernel panic something like “failed after 5 attempts - quitting” on the previous boot. When reopened it tries to boot but fails after about 60% of progress. The same thing happens if the lid is closed. Left to itself the system goes into sleep mode. It starts with a beach ball after which all processes come to a stand still. It’s a nice example of one way of approaching the problem.My 2012 13” MacBook Air 1.8 GHz (5,2), running MacOS Mojave10.14.3 is hanging frequently. If you’re looking for a way to go paperless yourself, be sure to take a look at Akber’s post. We differ in that he likes to encode his data taxonomy in the file system while I prefer to dump everything in just a few files and let search worry about finding them. We both use Org as the basis of our note and record keeping and value the fact that the data is plain text. Still, it’s fair to say that our methods are more alike than different. I simply use the appropriate capture template and Org will add the entry in the proper place-creating a new headline for the day, if necessary-without my doing anything special. Using Org mode’s datetree capture makes this-and all the machinery he added to support it-completely unnecessary. He also likes to have a separate file for each day in his notebooks/logs. He just uses an Org mode search that doesn’t depend at all on which Org file the data is stored in. Ironically, Akber himself demonstrates this in a short video demonstrating how he searches for data. Search on modern computers is fast and will find the data no matter where it’s stored. The thing is, it’s hard, in many cases, to decide where a piece of data should be stored and can correspondingly make it harder to find later. ![]() That’s the natural thing to do especially for those of us brought up on the command line. ![]() He likes to store his data according to type in separate directories and files. I’ve been successful in my attempt to the point that except for a few common exceptions-the occasional check, signing of credit card receipts, making a mathematical calculation, and the like-I virtually never pick up a pen or pencil anymore.Īlthough we both start with Org mode, Akber’s solution is interesting to me because it differs from mine in some respects. I’ve written a bit on that subject in the last few years ever since I started making a conscious effort to avoid using pens, pencils, and paper as much as I could. After I wrote the post on Aqeel Akber’s Perfect Email Setup, I browsed around his site a bit and found this other interesting post from 2016 on going paperless.
