progenx 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2008 This isn't that much of a hack job, but it works for me on every Mac I've tried.When your "System Administrator" blocks out for example, iTunes from playing, open up a terminal and typecd / --takes you to the root of the current drivecd App* --short for Applications (Case Sensitive)and then you will be in the Application Folder of your MacNow, in terminal typeopen -a iTunes.app or open -a iT* (For Short)This will open up iTunes and any other program you attempt to try.Also if you want to see whats currently in the directory you are in typelsand it will list everything inside of the directory.This also works when you've downloaded a program onto your Mac but running it is blocked.

maxhax 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2009 Nohax brings up a good point. What kind of a network admin would block iTunes but not terminal?I was trying to get past my school's program blocks then found this right now... for all people you can open terminal if blocked by typing into safari:telnet://it will bring up terminal, then just click new shell.
