Copy Text from Quick Look Previews with a Terminal
Command
I really miss Quick Look when I'm on my
iPad or the two elderly Pismo PowerBooks I still have
in daily production use running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. Along with
Spaces, Quick Look was among
my favorite OS X 10.5 Leopard feature innovations.
However, not being able to select or copy text in Quick Look is a
pain, albeit happily one that can be easily relieved via a cool tip
from Mac Kung Fu author
Keir Thomas posted by Macworld's Lex Friedman.
In short, to enable a hidden Finder setting that will activate
selecting and copying text directly from the Quick Look window, just
paste this code into Terminal and then press Return:
defaults write com.apple.finder QLEnableTextSelection -bool TRUE; killall Finder
This Finder will restart, after which you'll be able to select any
text out of any text document opened in Quick Look.

LaCie's Latest High-Speed Storage Solutions
Featuring Thunderbolt Technology
PR: LaCie has announced its latest peripherals featuring
Thunderbolt technology at the 2012 International CES. The new 2big
Thunderbolt Series delivers speed, flexibility, and capacity, while the
eSATA Hub Thunderbolt Series allows users to connect external eSATA
drives to their new Macs. This announcement follows the unprecedented
success of LaCie's Little Big Disk Thunderbolt Series and further
asserts the company's commitment to deliver high-quality products
featuring Thunderbolt technology.
"LaCie is proud to offer the widest range of storage solutions
featuring Thunderbolt technology," said Erwan Girard, Professional
Business Unit Manager, LaCie. "These products are some of the fastest
and most flexible storage solutions on the market. They will
dramatically accelerate the workflow of even the most demanding digital
users."
2big Thunderbolt Series
With speeds up to three times faster than FireWire 800, the LaCie
2big also features RAID security, hot-swappable disks, daisy chain
convenience, and a solid-aluminum casing. Heavy data users will
appreciate capacities up to 8 TB with jaw-dropping transfer rates
up to 311 MB/s. Daisy chaining multiple 2bigs even increases overall
performance.
With the 2big, backups take a fraction of the time, letting the user
back up more frequently. Videographers working in Final Cut Pro X or
other professional software can even stream multiple HD video streams
directly from the drive. Photographers using Lightroom or Aperture will
notice significantly more responsive photo library browsing.
eSATA Hub Thunderbolt Series
The eSATA Hub Thunderbolt Series gives new
life to existing eSATA drives with Thunderbolt innovation and backward
compatibility. It connects to a late-model Mac via the Thunderbolt port
and features two eSATA ports. This lets the user connect two eSATA
external hard drives to the Hub and get full eSATA speeds on their new
Mac. The Hub also features a second Thunderbolt port that lets the user
connect other Thunderbolt peripherals. This means up to 12 eSATA drives
(6x Dock, 2x eSATA links per Hub) can be connected via a single
connection to a Mac with full eSATA 3 Gb/s speeds.
The 2big Thunderbolt Series and eSATA Hub Thunderbolt Series will be
available in the first quarter of 2012. Thunderbolt cables can be
purchased separately on Apple.com.
Release is expected in March; prices have not been established.

Victorinox Swiss Army Unveils Pocket-sized Terabyte
Storage Device at 2012 CES
PR: At the 2012 International Consumer Electronics Show,
iconic brand Victorinox Swiss Army (VSA), the exclusive marketer of
Victorinox USB Flash Memory devices, has announced the launch of two
new portable storage additions-the Victorinox SSD and Victorinox Slim
3.0. VSA brings more than 125 years of trusted precision, quality,
function, and versatility to its newest consumer electronics
innovations, which is a burgeoning product category for the brand.
The
Victorinox SSD (Solid State Drive) and Victorinox Slim 3.0 USBs offer
unprecedented data storage capacity with security measures fit for
protecting the most confidential of personal and professional
documents. Each pocket-sized device packs anywhere from 16 GB to
1 TB of storage capacity, is equipped to withstand a range of
environmental and daily use factors, and remains true to the Swiss Army
legacy of flawlessly designed products that endure.
"The Victorinox Swiss Army brand is synonymous with everyday
"survival" tools and we continue to evolve our product offerings in the
electronics division to provide solutions for living in a
technology-focused world," says Andrea Huder, Head of Electronics for
Victorinox. "The addition of the Victorinox SSD and Slim 3.0 to the
flash USB line provides consumers with a quick and reliable way to
store, transport and protect their personal and professional
documents."
The need for large capacity storage devices has skyrocketed as
consumers and businesses access, catalog, and maintain thousands of
data-intensive applications as part of their everyday lives. The
Victorinox SSD addresses this opportunity by holding a terabyte of
storage - the equivalent of 220 million pages of text, almost two years
of uninterrupted music, or 330,000 3 MB photos - in a pocket-sized
device. Some key features and benefits of the Victorinox SSD
include:
- World's smallest high-capacity SSD drive on the market to-date
- Variety of storage capacities: 64 GB, 128 GB, 256 GB, and 1 TB
- World's only SSD device with only one connector that fits into USB
2/3 and eSATA 2/3 connectors
- World's only SSD device with a Bi-Stable graphic display (E-Paper
software) for labeling contents
- Handles automatic backup and synchronization issues in unhacked AES
256 security (combination hardware and software)
- Each SSD comes equipped with two knife bodies, between which the
drive can easily be interchanged - one is flight-friendly and the other
includes traditional Swiss Army Knife implements (blade, scissors, nail
file/screwdriver combo)
The Victorinox Slim 3.0 also combines portable data storage with
stylish design. Faster in read/write speeds than a USB 2.0 flash drive
can offer, the 3.0 is available in four storage capacities and four
timeless colors: black, Victorinox red, forest green, and navy blue.
Also available is the classic ruby with Swiss Army Knife implements
(blade, scissors, nail file/screw driver combo)
At the show, VSA is also unveiling a new limited-edition collection
that makes the technology of three existing solutions visible to the
eye. Each product will have a transparent knife handle, exposing the
internal hardware, and will be complemented by clear cube packaging
that gives the appearance of the device floating in suspension. VSA
only produced between 1,000 and 4,000 pieces of each limited edition
product, which will be available in April 2012:
- Victorinox Secure - Featuring a removable USB flash drive
with integrated biometric fingerprint reader and loaded with
proprietary Secure software, the device comes in 64 GB and 128 GB
capacities and comes equipped with two knife bodies. The drive can
easily be interchanged between the flight-friendly body without
implements and the non-flight model which includes scissors, blade,nail
file with a screwdriver tip, and a combo LED/laser pointer
- Victorinox Presentation Master - Also available in 64 GB and
128 GB capacities with flight-friendly and non-flight knife bodies,
this removable USB flash drive features a Bluetooth remote control,
laser pointer, biometric fingerprint reader, and is loaded with the
Secure software
- Victorinox Flash - Available in a 128 GB capacity, equipped
with flight and non-flight knife bodies, the Flash combines all the
functionality of a Swiss Army Knife with a USB flash drive
