In-Depth Information
If the FaceTime ID is a cell phone number, you need to type it after the
command without any spaces. For example, if the FaceTime ID was the
cell phone number +15551231234 , you'd type the following:
DEFAULTS WRITE COM.APPLE.FACETIME AUTOACCEPTINVITESFROM -ARRAY-ADD
+15551231234
Restart FaceTime, and you should find calls from the FaceTime IDs you added
are automatically answered!
You can repeat step 3 and add more FaceTime IDs to the list.
Removing Auto-answer Entries
To remove a FaceTime ID from the auto-answer list, you can use the following
command, but unfortunately this removes all of the entries you might have
added using the previous commands.
Quit FaceTime, open a Terminal window, and type the following two lines:
DEFAULTS DELETE COM.APPLE.FACETIME AUTOACCEPTINVITES
DEFAULTS DELETE COM.APPLE.FACETIME AUTOACCEPTINVITESFROM
If you have Xcode installed and are competent using its Plist editor, you can
manually remove individual auto-answer entries from the FaceTime prefer-
ences file, which is found in the ~/LIBRARY/PREFERENCES/COM.APPLE.FACETIME.PLIST file.

puter, you'll be familiar with the rather lengthy process needed to add them
to your iTunes library—you have to start iTunes, then ensure the correct
music or movie list is visible, and finally drag and drop the files onto the
program window….
However, there's a hidden folder you can use to import music and movies
straight into iTunes. All you need to do is configure any app you use to
download files straight into this folder, and they will be instantly imported—
even if iTunes isn't running at the time.
To find the folder, open Finder, hit SHIFT + COMMAND + G , and then type
~/MUSIC/ITUNES/ITUNES MEDIA/ . One of the folders you should see will be AUTOMATICALLY
