after copy paste, sometimes the " ' " gets corrupted and ends up pasted as a accent sign, just manually delete it and write it again before executing

When the quotes are corrected, should Terminal require the admin password again as it did in step one?

Pelayo • 8 years ago

Solved the issue for me, terminal does not ask for password.

The word document is no longer linked - could this be fixed please?

I still have Mavericks and I'm in no hurry to update to 10.10 while TRIM on third party SSDs is not supported without kexts.

Didn't work under OS X Yosemite...Same config: Samsung 840 Pro via Thunderbolt.

The Word doc attached to this post should be updated to remove the smart quotes in the perl command. (Thanks for trying to be helpful, Word!) In the meantime, if users replace the two curly quotes in the command with straight single quotes, it will work as expected.

I also get the same error message than Jia, has anyone found how to make it work?

What's the mysteriously missing added bonus? My interested peaked seeing which products provide said bonus.

Keep using your ssd with out trim and you'll find out sooner than later.

Waiting to see your uneducated rants about how crap ssd technology is after that ;)

Kia Kamgar • 10 years ago

TRIM support is already enabled on the MBPr 2013, I have one.

Apple SSD's are automatically enabled.
