Spotlight not indexing after Sierra upgrade

Posted on September 22, 2017 - September 22, 2017 by vrpc

Looks like this helped me:

  1. first I removed all selections under System Preferences/ Spotlight/ search results
  2. restart
  3. use terminal:
    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    wait 20s
    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    sudo mdutil -E /Volumes/*
    you should get a message indicating that indexing is enabled.

mac OS Sierra remove parental control using terminal

Posted on September 11, 2017 by vrpc

for some reason I had parental control enabled on network user with local admin rights.

it wasn’t possible to remove them using system preferences.

to remove it I used terminal command:

sudo dscl . -mcxdelete /Users/username
sudo rm -rf /Library/Managed\ Preferences/username
