How to Reset MAC OS X DOCK to DEFAULT SETTINGS

First launch the Terminal app, located in the Utilities folder under Applications, or just hit Cmd + Space and type “Terminal“.

Type (copy & paste) the command below:

defaults delete com.apple.dock; killall Dock

Then hit return.

Your Dock will now be new as the day it shipped. You are free to mess it up again 🙂

Make a directory writable by Apache on Mac OS X

Just a quick reference on how to make a directory writable by OSX integrated Apache web server.

1. Set the ownership of your desired directory/file to the _www user:

sudo chown -R _www:staff path/to/folder/

2. Set the permissions so that the _www can write in the directory/file without giving permissions to everyone else:

sudo chmod -R 755 path/to/folder

Happy coding 🙂
