Mountain Lion-Ordner mit iPhone-Inhalten: iMessage History, iCloud Dokumente, iTunes Backups und mehr Die Speicherorte iPhone-relevanter Dateien auf dem eigenen Mac sind nicht immer eindeutig und werden stellenweise erst gar nicht im Finder angezeigt. Um seine iMessage-History zu löschen oder Festplattenplatz mit der Entsorgung alter iOS-Aktualisierungen freizuschaufeln, bietet sich der Blick in die von Apple versteckten Ordner in regelmäßigen Abständen jedoch an. Die folgenden fünf Verzeichnisse sind dabei die mit Abstand interessantesten. iCloud-Dokumente: ~/Library/Mobile Documents/ Hier speichern iPhone und iPad-Apps ihre Dokumente zum Abgleich über Apples iCloud ab. iPhone-Backups: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ Lokal gespeicherte Geräte-Backups machen es sich im MobileSync-Ordner gemütlich können aber auch direkt über iTunes gelöscht werden. iOS Applikationen: ~/Musik/iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications/ Diese befinden sich für gewöhnlich direkt im iTunes-Ordner. iPhone-Aktualisierungen: ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates/ iMessage History: ~/Library/Messages/

Psychology and Alchemy Psychology and Alchemy is Volume 12 in The Collected Works of C. G. Jung, a series of books published by Princeton University Press in the U.S. and Routledge & Kegan Paul in the U.K. It is study of the analogies between alchemy, Christian dogma, and psychological symbolism.[1] Detailed abstracts of each chapter are available online.[3] Overview[edit] In this book, Jung argues for a reevaluation of the symbolism of Alchemy as being intimately related to the psychoanalytical process. In drawing these parallels Jung reinforces the universal nature of his theory of the archetype and makes an impassioned argument for the importance of spirituality in the psychic health of the modern man. Also interesting about this book is that patient whose dreams are being analyzed in the second section is the physicist Wolfgang Pauli, who would go on to collaborate with Jung on such ideas as the acausal connection principle of synchronicity.
