Help! Tried to cancel a file move and I think Im in trouble now...
I tried to move (NOT copyt) a file from my mac to an external drive.
The file was my iphoto file under my username. It is ENORMOUS; 350GB or so.
The screen said it would take 14 hours to move. Having some other things to get done, after a minute or so I cancelled the move.
The file now shows up as the same size within both my imac harddrive AND external hard drive.
Thing is -- there are greyed out fileds on each.
What does this mean? Am I in trouble?
This all started because I wanted to roll back my iphoto files to last night. I tried to restore the file but timemachine said I do not have enough room on my computer to restore. So I figured I would move the current one to a different backup drive, restore last nights version from my time machine backup to my PC, and if all worked well just delete the version from my external.
Select the text on the line below by dragging across it. Don't include the blank space at the end of the line. Only the text should be highlighted.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V), then press the space bar.
Now switch to the Finder and and select one of the grayed-out files on the internal drive. Drag it into the Terminal window. More text will be added to what you entered.
Click in the Terminal window to activate it, then press return.
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.

My MacBook Storage is almost full even without files, movies and music... why is it so???
ThanksHi Avelyn,
Click on the Apple and then About this Mac>More Info. Click on the "Storage" tab to see what is using up all of your storage.
That might help you to determine what you need to clean up.

Hello this is the first time I have ever had a problem. I am trying to down load a movie and it keeps giving me error -50. I have signed out and back in and deleated the download and tryed again and still will not download.

I rented a movie and transferred to my ipad but now i want to watch on my apple tv. Can I transfer it back or how can I watch it through my tv?
Hello leannerich,
The easiest option for you may be to use AirPlay to stream the movie from your iPad to the AppleTV. The article below will walk you through the process of setting that up.

I export part of my master catalog to a laptop. I include the image files so I can edit the files at full res. After managing and editing files I import the catalog back into the master catalog. When importing I check to replace metadata, develop settings and negative files. I have been running some tests to be sure all my work is being captured in the master catalog by this process. I find that if I change develop settings or photo ratings this is detected when the file is imported and the data in the master catalog is updated properly. The surprise is that if I delete files or move files among folders in the exported catalog these changes are not detected and these changes are not updated inthe master catalog. It seems bizarre to me that such changes are not detected but I do not see how to get LR to recognize these changes and include them in the catalog update. Without this capability I don't see how to use catalogs to move part of a catalog to another computer for edits and file management and then move back to the master catalog.
There are various reasons why Lightroom works this way, but you'll need use pick flags to indicate photos to be deleted, and other metadata like colours or collections.

I am trying to download a digital movie and I am being told that iTunes is not available now.
I am trying to download a Disney digital copy of a movie, but I keep getting the message that iTunes is not available now. Try back later. I have the latest version of iTune (11.0.1). Does anyone know what the problem could be. I received an "error 5002" earlier when trying to download the same movie.

Help - unable to view photo files on SD card without attaching to camera (now damaged)
Hi,I've been using a 32GB SanDisk SD (HC I Class 10) with my Sony NEX-5 since I first got it without a problem. Recently I started being unable to be read the photos on the card in the DCIM folder via the SD Card reader on my computer (a 4GB file with no file extension and non-alphanumeric name was visible, but couldn't be opened or even copied). However it was at least manageable as the photos could be seen on the camera, and in Windows Explorer in date-sorted folders when the camera was connected. Unfortunately my camera was recently irreparably water-damaged so I can no longer download photos from the SD card by connecting the camera. I've downloaded PlayMemories software but this cannot recognize the photos on the card either (it wants me to connect the camera to 'register' it, which I can't). So my question is, given the above information, what software could I use to view / download my photos from this SD card? Many thanks for your help!!!!Nik
Try http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec But I think you've got a bigger problem. Flash memory devices fail. They don't fail all at once, but a little bit at a time. As it fails, it can handle it by remapping memory locations to spare locations. (The reliability of memory devices is dependant on the number of spare memory a device has, and SanDisk and Lexar generally have the most.) But when a device eventually runs out of spare memory locations, it goes down hard, and I think that's what happened to you. Good luck recovering your photos, but I'm not hopeful.

All of a sudden my ipod erased everything when syncing. (this seems to occur most frequently after adding music to my library). At first I thought it was the ipod and exchanged for a new one ( i"d had the first one for a year and a half until this happened. After recieving the new ipod i still have the same problem. I've restored the factory settings and everything is up to date and yet I've only been able to sync around 9000 songs tops compared to the 40,000 I had before. I even tried syncing from a different computer and still only some of the music syncs. Besides a few newbies here and there all the content is the same as what I had before. Any suggestions?
I´ve tried every possible solution listed, those that have worked for others...nothing has worked. My library has about 2777 songs of which at first only 1370 loaded. After syncing w/o music, which deleted all music from my iPhone, I then selected Sync Music again and synced...well this time only 391 songs were added!!! It skipped the other 1400 I already had in! I´ve come to notice that these 391 songs are the ones purchased directly on the iTunes Store, but previously I had ALL my CD´s ripped and loaded to my iPhone.
I don´t know if this has something to do with the new iTunes version, but please, please, someone give me some light! I don´t want to go and convert all 2400 songs from MP3 to AAC..!! It´s not practical!
Thanks in advance for your comments.

Trying to import a Quicktime movie and get error message
After exporting from FCP, using QuickTime settings, when I try to import into DVD Studio Pro 3, I get a message saying wrong format.
It says "could not import one file. Incompatible format".
(there's only one file I'm trying to import.
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks.
J.J.:
When you export from FCP take care of selecting QuickTime Movie self contained with same settings that your timeline (ussually the default settings in the export window).
Besides that my advice is you encode your video to MPEG2 and your audio to Dolby AC3 before importing in DVDSP. DVDSP will leave audio uncompressed what can give you playback issues in some players because it take too much of your bitrate.
In DVDSP3 you must use A.Pack for the AC3 encoding. Try this tutorial about Encoding AC3 with A.Pack (from KenStone site).
Good luck. -

and i got to link it to Wininet.lib
and I'm a noob so i got problems as soon as i tried to put everything together
so any help greatly appreciated
BTW if you know any other ways, that I'll be able to stream the audio that will be great to.
heres the link for the audio stream (.pls)
http://panel3.serverhostingcenter.com:2199/tunein/nrlsxglp.plsHello 0cooldex0,
What library do you used in this scenario? I haven't saw this FSOUND_STREAM from MSDN library.
By the way, winform general is used for talking about Windows Form library, is is using C# or VB.NET but not C or C++. You are not posting in the right forum.
In my point of view, you may choose the forum depending on the library you choosed and post on specific forum.

I have an external hard disk drive with data that I want to back up onto another extrnal hard disk drive. I have tried to copy and paste but this wont give me a paste option. I have also tried to click and drag but it wont let me either. I have reformatted the external hard drive to accept both mac and pc files and this did not make any difference. Can anyone help me with this?
How did you reformat the drive? If you formatted it as NTFS, your Mac will not be able to write files to it unless you use a small application such as Paragon's.
Please reply as to how you formatted the drive.

Here where i work we use a software, whose files are stored on the server. But we also have a local copy of these files so that we can use the software when not in the office. Or when the server is down. The problem is, that many of my co workers are not very computer literate and the constant copying back and forth of files confuses them.
So I am trying to write an updater application. Basically all they would have to do is click a button, it would tell them whether there had been any important changes, and allow them to update by pressing a single other button.
I have the gui written, I have all the checks done, but i cannot figure out how to make Java take files in one place and copy them to another place. I would think this would be something that java is capable of. But as of this moment I am drawing a blank.
Any ideas?Quick and dirty method is to use Runtime.exec() to execute the copy/move commands directly, though this is platform dependant.
Another way is to use InputStream and OutputStream to read the original file and write out the copy of the file. -
Help trying to get the F_ApiWinConnectSession initialized and running in the background.
Fellow FM Developers,
I have the FDK8 and have been using framemaker as a processor of templates. We have successfully written a program that uses the framemaker in a user account currently logged in. In other words, USER A logs in with their account on Computer A and processes files just fine. Now, we would like to set up a system where jobs are submitted by USER A and runs on a remote Computer B which processes the document and saves it as a PDF.
We want to make it so users can submit a job through a web service using the .NET framework. We have tried to do this, however we are failing on one crucial part of our development. I am trying to use the single most important (asynchronis) connectivity line:
F_ApiWinConnectSession( NULL, NULL, &ClassID );
This is because we want to have framemaker start in the background with this execution of this service. Unfortunately, without the GUI available this command fails. We have obviously created a Progid and it has been registered in the registry. We did this by runnning :
FrameMaker.exe /progid:FrameMaker.Automation.2 /auto
Can anyone help me with trying to get framemaker to run in a background. Is there a way to process the documents without have the GUI up and loaded and then have it process the document.
Your help is greatly appreciated,
AdamAdam,
The server license is more tuned to the type of output that you are creating, regardless of the number of users. If you are creating content from external sources and generating a PDF in an automated way via FM, then you need a server license (period).
Read your FM EULA carefully.
2.2. Limitations on Server and Network Use. You may install one copy of the Software on your Computer file server for the sole purpose of downloading and installing the Software onto other Computers within your internal network up to the Permitted Number, provided that the total number of users that are permitted to download and install the Software from such Computer file server, does not exceed the Permitted Number. Except as explicitly described above, no other network or server use is permitted under this license, including but not limited to, using the Software either directly or through commands, data or instructions from or to any other Computer, for internet or web hosting services or by any user not licensed to Use this copy of the Software through a valid license from Adobe. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement does not permit the Software to be Used in any batch-oriented environment where such Use of the software is to produce Postscript or PDF output from data originating from any other application, unless such Use is merely incidental to a Use clearly permitted by the license.To obtain rights for additional server, batch oriented or network licensing uses, you may purchase a license(s) for the FrameMaker® Server product. The FrameMaker Server product license is available for review at, http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/main.html.
This has greatly impacted the database publishing side of things. If all of your content is completely created in FrameMaker, then you should be ok. However, if you create or get any content outside of FrameMaker and pass it through FM to make your documentation sets, then according to Adobe, you need to be using the FrameServer product (for creating the PDFs).
