macOS Full Disk Access

In macOS Mojave Apple introduced a new Security and Privacy feature that protects the System Preferences of Apple distributed Apps from being accessed by 3rd party Apps.

This change has resulted in some pretty important Apps not being able to do their jobs.  For example I use NetShred X to clear the history and cache of my browsers.  Under macOS Mojave it stopped working for Apple Mail and Apple’s Safari web browser while it continued to work for everything else.

This was not an easy problem to solve but after a few hours of looking around I discovered the solution lies in a new System Preference > Security & Privacy > Privacy tab > Full Disk Access option.

In that setting you need to do the following:

  1. Click the lock icon to make changes
  2. Enter your password
  3. Drag the App, in this case NetShred X, from the Applications folder into the list

Here is a picture of how it should look:

macOS Mojave Full Disk Access

Now, everything will work again, just like it used to work prior to installing macOS Mojave.

BurningThumb updates Video Kiosk – Android: version 7.2.5 released

Richmond, Canada — BurningThumb Studios has released a new version of Video Kiosk, its Android looping video app. Version 7.2.5 of Video Kiosk is built using latest Android Studio. Update to SDK 28 (Android 9 – Pie) and is update to use Android X compatibility libraries. It also makes minor bug fixes in App launching and selecting the previous media item. Video Kiosk is an easy to use, full-featured video app for that can play video and images in a robust, reliable loop on any Android TV, Android Tablet or Android phone. Video Kiosk was designed specifically to be both full featured and easy to use, so that users can enjoy a full range of video display features or just show a video in a loop.

Developed to show a folder of videos at a Dojo, Video Kiosk has evolved in to a full-featured looping video player that not only supports Kiosk Mode, its original purpose, but also Interactive Kiosk Mode, Digital Signage Mode and Web Kiosk Mode.

Video Kiosk offers robust playback that skips bad video files instead of pausing and will automatically re-boot rooted devices so that content will automatically start playing again after reboot, so human intervention is not required. Video Kiosk is flexible so when the media files in the folder are changed, the new selection of media will play the next time the loop starts. Content as well as configuration files can be remotely managed using a cloud service, such as Google Drive or Dropbox. This combination of features delivers a robust, flexible Video Kiosk can be remotely managed from anywhere there is an internet connection.
