Is coding bootcamp worth it? We look at salaries after coding bootcamp, cost of bootcamp, coding bootcamp ROI, what employers think of coding Coding bootcamps are often called a “fast track” to well-paying tech jobs. And with lower tuition costs, shorter class times, and a practical learning.
With the Boot Camp tools installed on Windows, there's an option for rebooting directly to Mac OS ('Restart in Mac OS X' from Boot Camp system tray item). But is this possible in the opposite direction? In other words, instead of the procedure 1) 'Restart', 2) wait for OS X to shut down, 3) hold Option key (⌥), and 4) select the Windows partition, can I tell my Mac to restart so that Windows is selected on the next boot? Something like ' Restart in Windows' which would let me bypass steps 2-4. NB: I want to keep Mac OS X as the default OS; I'm just looking for a convenient shortcut when normally running OS X and occasionally wanting to boot to Windows. This does work on 10.7 Lion, thank you very much! Bootcamp calls itself '/Volumes/BOOTCAMP' by default.
For NTFS write support on Lion, you can use Paragon NTFS - in my opinion definitely worth the time I saved. Also, of course you need sudo in front of shutdown as well, but it's a good idea to try the bless command first and see what it says.
About the answer: does anyone know the details of whether rebooting via shutdown -r as opposed to from the Finder has any negative effects on the OS X world - i.e. Files getting corrupted or services or other apps getting corrupted by being terminated – Nov 8 '11 at 15:06. I'm not sure if you've already found an optimal solution to this problem, but what I've done is created an AppleScript: do shell script 'hdiutil unmount /Volumes/ -quiet' do shell script 'bless -device /dev/disk0s3 -legacy -setBoot -nextonly' with administrator privileges tell application 'Finder' to restart where is the name of your Windows volume. Also ensure that the Windows volume is at disk0s3 by issuing a diskutil list command in the Terminal.
If you want to make it even fancier, you can use QuickSilver so that a simple hotkey combination will allow you to reboot to Windows quickly. The script they use is slightly different from the one above and has some disadvantages, mainly that you can't use it if you have NTFS-3G enabled, and the shutdown sequence is not as safe. My script allows you to unmount the Windows partition before blessing it and then telling the Finder to reboot. You can also bypass the password prompt by including your password in the second line of the script (replace xxxxxxx with your password): do shell script 'bless -device /dev/disk0s3 -legacy -setBoot -nextonly' password 'xxxxxxx' with administrator privileges However, it's potentially insecure since your password is plainly visible to anyone who views the script file.
There is no way to this with only BootCamp installed as it is controlled by OSX. Is a boot manager that will allow you to select which OS to boot at startup, and also has some very handy extra features. It replaces the normal OSX Boot Manager and when you switch on your Mac or restart your Mac it displays a list of all the installed operating systems on your machine, which then allows you to choose which one to boot. Therefore with BootCamp installed it will show the Windows Partition as an Icon along with the Mac Partition and you can also set a default time-out for your preferred OS. I got that; I just wanted to know if it also happened to provide tools (cf.

Apple's Boot Camp tools for Windows) for what I specifically asked for. So, while rEFIt seems like a useful boot manager tool (which I might try sometime), it misses this particular question. To clarify: it may make startup a little more convenient (no need to press Option at any rate), but the use case I meant was: 'when already in OS X, tell computer to restart in Windows now, with no further user interaction'. I'm sorry I failed to word my question clearly enough.

If you ever tried playing on a Mac device, for example, a MacBook Pro you might have experience low FPS or feel lag while playing the game. This can course a significant drawback for playing the game as your opponents will have an advantage. However, there is a rescue! Here’s a guide on how you can increase your FPS and get a more smooth experience while playing Fortnite!
The game mode has gained extreme interest ever since it was released as Early Access on July 25, 2017. The game is actually very optimized for being not a final release yet, much more than for example PUBG when that was released. Fortnite System Requirements First, so to make a in depth guide we have to start with requirements for the game. To be more exact for Mac users. Actually the minimum specs are the same as for Windows, except for the the operative system.
Here is what you should have at least:. Intel HD 4000. Core i3 2.4 Ghz. 4 GB RAM. Mac OS X Sierra (or above) Having more than these will greatly increase your performance in game. There is much you can do except getting better hardware like mention above.
Here’s some steps you can take, to make it run better. Some settings requires more work than others to set up, and its up to you how important the game experience is for you! Get Boot Camp (Windows) for your Mac Yes, you didn’t read that wrong! We don’t mean getting a windows computer, but to use the Windows Operative System (OS). Do this if you are really serious about to bump up the FPS on your Mac, otherwise go straight to step 2.
Most games runs better on Windows and you can actually use both Mac & Windows OS on your Mac at the same time quite easily. Apple provides a program called that let you install Microsoft Windows on your Mac. Install Fortnite on your Windows partition, you change whether you want to use Mac or Windows when you start your computer. Set All Settings to Low Fortnite still looks great a low settings and if you want to boost your game, you have to sadly sacrifice some of the visual effects. This depending on how good your Mac is obviously, but you can probably have anti aliasing and post processing on medium our higher as this doesn’t effect your FPS as much.
Use Fullscreen Mode Many use windowed or windowed full screen mode. Don’t do that! Use Fullscreen only, this will greatly increase the performance as your computer will have an easier time handling the game. Set Audio Quality to Low You might wonder, how can audio quality help my FPS? Actually we have seen many reports it does. However, it seems to be a really minor buff. But if you really are looking into maximizing your outputs, do this as well.
Don’t Run Any Programs in the Background Don’t run unnecessary applications in the background. Close everything you wont be using before starting the game. Of course, if you enjoy playing with music or using a VoIP application like Discord you can have it on. Just remember to minimize the current programs active. If you are using it might be a good idea to optimize a little by going into User settings and unchecked Hardware Acceleration in the settings.
