IPad – cannot see log items for connected ipad in console

consoleipad

I have attached an iPad to my MacBook and I made the iPad trust the MacBook.

I've opened up the Console application where I can see both my MacBook and the iPad, but I am only seeing messages come through for my MacBook – the iPad has a little triangle containing an exclamation mark next to it and an empty message log. I can't see anything in the UI to indicate what the problem is or how to diagnose it.

How can I get message logging working for the iPad?

And it turns out that clicking on the triangle containing the exclamation mark was the required step to make log messages start flowing.

This could happen for a number of reasons, one of those could be that you unplugged a FireWire drive while spotlight was indexing it. You may have to reset spotlight indexes to stop the error appearing if this has happened. You can do so with the Terminal command below.

sudo mdutil -E /

Spotlight will need to reindex all your drives which will take some time, allow it to finish indexing each drive before unplugging it and that may solve the problem

See the link below for an article from someone with a similar issue who solved it performing the steps above

Apache on OSX 10.8 not starting

I had exactly the same problem. I started Apache without DocumentRoot(s). It did the trick.

sudo apachectl -T
