I'm new to the macOS, one thing that I noticed when using mission control is that when the window title gets too long, it'll get trimmed, it's especially confusing when there're multiple similar windows open. I tried hovering over the title, but the full text won't show up, is there any way to show the full title?

I have often a tedious job where I need to split movies by the chapter. (The videos have multiple audio tracks & subtitles and have defined chapters) I can do this in Quicktime, but it's a very manual process !! Therefore I'm looking for a way / app / .... that takes my video and splits it in multiple videos for each chapter. Simple split, no transcoding or anything. (It would be an added bonus if it was possible to alter the id3 meta data in 1 go as well) Again, I can do this - sorta - with Quicktime, but I want a more productive way. Thanks for any feedback !! let me know if you need more info. D

I'm using various SSDs on a 15-inch mid-2014 MacBook Pro Retina having changed the original SSD for a larger size using an adapter board: all are working fine with TRIM enabled. I use external SSDs on both USB 3 enclosures and in Thunderbolt 2 enclosures. The Thunderbolt LaCie Rugged and LBD enclosures show that I have enabled TRIM Force and are working but is it possible that TRIM can be enabled on USB in any workaround? With modern SSDs i.e. Crucial BX MX and NVMe do they have their own built-in garbage collection/TRIM that works in the background? I'm trying to find an adapter for NVMe (I believe to SATA) so that I can put them in one of the Thunderbolt external enclosures I have. I find the complication of type confusing..

I recently upgraded my MacBook air's 2017 SSD to 1TB. I used Crucial P2 NVMe SSD with a 3rd party adapter. And it's working pretty well. Recently I heard about macOS Trip support, I use the Filevault, and someone said macOS don't support 3rd party SSD trim support. But it's already working with my SSD, and I don't even enable it. So I am confused here. Right now, I am using macOS 12.2. So how is it working on my mac without any extra command? Do I worry about it?

When does macOS send the [ATA TRIM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trim_(computing)) command to the SSD's controller? * After deleting a file? Like Windows 10 does. * After a fixed amount of time? Like Ubuntu and Fedora do, once a week. I'm assuming macOS Monterey and an Apple SSD.

I want to keep the paragraph structure but just delete all the enclosing brackets from text that is in the clipboard. For instance - this text: >The three stripes are Adidas' identity mark, having been used on the company's clothing and shoe designs as a marketing aid. The branding, which Adidas bought in 1952 from Finnish sports company Karhu Sports for the equivalent of 1,600 euros and two bottles of whiskey, became so successful that Dassler described Adidas as "The three stripes company". I want it to be like this (no matter how long the text string): >The three stripes are Adidas' identity mark, having been used on the company's clothing and shoe designs as a marketing aid. The branding, which Adidas bought in 1952 from Finnish sports company Karhu Sports for the equivalent of 1,600 euros and two bottles of whiskey, became so successful that Dassler described Adidas as "The three stripes company". I've tried this but it deletes most of the string: set theName to (the clipboard) set y to characters 1 thru ¬ ((offset of "[" in theName) - 2) ¬ of theName as string I've tried also: do shell script "sed -E -e 's|\\[.*||' -e 's|,||g' -e 's|^[ ]+||' -e 's|[ ]+$||'<<<" & theName's quoted form

Under SATA/SATA Express in my System Information, I have "Yes" for TRIM support, so I assume TRIM has been enabled for my Mac. Does this mean that every time I delete a file, the TRIM command is used on those files, or do I have to invoke TRIM myself to use it?

When migrating a MacBook from HDD to SSD, I did a block-level copy using dd. I believe for optimal flash lifetime and performance, it would be the best to issue a TRIM for every unused block in the new filesystem to inform the SSD controller (so it won't confuse my dd copy with a large file that occupies the entire disk). Is it possible to TRIM the free space manually for an APFS volume on macOS (like FreeBSD's trim or Linux's fstrim)? I've read that on HFS+, macOS's fsck has a TRIM pass, so TRIM can be triggered manually by running fsck -fy in single-user mode, and one should see a "trimming unused blocks" message. But it doesn't support APFS (I tried it and I didn't see any message about TRIM).

I'm using Mac 10.13.3. I want to trim the first second and the last two seconds from my mp4 (movie). I tried writing an Applescript like so trim output.mp4 1 from (0*60 + 1) to (32*60 +38) but when I try and save it, I get the error A identifier can’t go after this identifier. Could someone provide some guidance on how to correct my script? When I try and trim using the QuickTime GUI, I find I can't move the trim bars by just a second or two with my mouse (it seems to move in large increments), otherwise I'd use that route.

I occasionally need to trim an MP4 video or split a clip out of the middle. Up to now I've been using a great app called MPEG Streamclip which has all the features I want: - super light weight, opens instantly - gui for scrubbing through videos - keyboard controls for frame-by-frame, keyframe-by-keyframe, in, out, and trim - batch list so I can set up multiple splits without waiting for each to save - saves clips from MP4s without transcoding A lot of this functionality was also available in Apple's Quicktime 7 Pro, although not quite as streamlined. Unfortunately the last update to MPEG Streamclip was in 2012, and each OS update breaks it further. In Mojave the Streamclip GUI is almost useless, and it's 32 bit so 10.15 will kill it entirely. Same for Quicktime 7. I'm sure I'm not the only person who wants to trim and split video on a Mac. What are the options for lightweight editors to trim MP4s without transcoding? Edit to explain how this is not a duplicate of Is there an easy way on a Mac to split an audio file at defined intervals? : This question is about splitting a video file, not an audio file, at points decided by scrubbing through the video, not on a defined interval. That question currently has no accepted answer, and the answers that were proposed do not apply to this question.

I’m trying to understand how I can avoid wear on my expensive 2TB SSD I use Windows 10 under bootcamp for games on my 2019 MBP 16inch. Can I enable trim as supported by macOS, on Windows? Will macOS also trim the windows partition? If no to both, what’s the impact? Do I need to destroy the windows partition semi regularly to avoid the disk being over worn?

I am using 2009 macbook pro and I wanted to upgrade the default hdd to a Samsung Evo 850. I have succeeded to transfer everything from a Time Machine backup, but when I wanted to enable the trim by **sudo trimforce enable**, then after a restart computer just shows the "crossed out circle". I am running OSX 10.11.6, and AFAIK it should just work. Am i missing something there? **What I did exactly is**: - put a clean ssd into the computer - booted from USB install disk for El Capitan - restored the backup from the time machine - logged in successfullty to a newly setup osx as a user with admin rights, - saw in system information SATA suport "Trim support: no" - in Terminal typed **sudo trimforce enable**, after a minute computer reboot - crossed out circle shows (every 10 seconds it changes for approx 0.3 seconds for apple logo, but the computer does not boot) am I missing something? **Edit.** On page Crindori Disk sensei I found: This is the easiest and safest way to enable Trim on OS X. It is even better than using the new built in trimforce command, since that requires 10.10.4 and may require disabling system security on El Cap. Are they up to something with "disabling system security on El Cap". Should I still have done the **kext-dev-mode=1** thing?

Since upgrading to High Sierra my boot time slowed down considerably (from ~10 seconds to 90 seconds). Googling this problem suggests disabling Trim might work as a solution, which you do via the sudo trimforce disable command, but it doesn't actually seem to disable Trim. After running sudo trimforce disable and pressing y twice, my Mac automatically reboots but after rebooting, system_profiler SPSerialATADataType | grep 'TRIM' or System Information->SATA/SATA Express still shows TRIM Support: Yes I also tried to disable System Integrity Protection before disabling Trim, and that doesn't seem to work either. Anyone got any ideas?

DZAT: Deterministic zero after TRIM. DRAT: Deterministic read after TRIM. Details on TRIM here .

Since all MacBooks with Apple-SSDs have TRIM enabled, I was wondering if trimming would “reset/prepare” the blocks for new writes, or would they leave the blocks there until a new write comes in. If blocks are reset/prepared in advance of new writes, would forensic recoverability of data still be possible?

- Specs: MBP 15" Mid 2010 i7 8gb ram - SSD: Sandisk PLUS 240GB SATA3 - OS: macOS Sierra 10.12.1 Brand new SSD. Fresh install of macOS Sierra with the latest update 10.12.1. When using sudo trimforce enable it enables successfully and reboots the machine. After the reboot during the first 20-30 seconds built-in keyboard and trackpad stop responding and they never recover back. The only fix is to disable trim: sudo trimforce disable. When trim is disabled everything works absolutely fine - no issues with keyboard nor trackpad. What could cause such behaviour?

G5 quad core PPC with an SSD in it. Should I continue looking for 'trim enabling' software? It doesn't seem to exist. Does the PPC architecture have a built in feature that manages SSD space?

What are the consequences of disabling Kest Signing on OS X Yosemite? I have disabled it to keep TRIM enabled on my aftermarket SSD. What are the security issues I could run up against? If I install applications only from trusted resources can I run in any kind of trouble? I couldn't find online extensive answers to these questions. Sorry if it's a duplicate.

I have a MacBook Pro 13-inch Mid 2012 and I installed an SSD in it. I'd like to upgrade my computer, but I'm not sure if I need to disable the trim before the update and reenable it after. I've heard that it could cause problems, but don't know why. I have macOS Sierra 10.12.6 and I've enabled the trim since I switched to this operating system.
