How can I restore folders and files from Previous Systems folder

I have been unable to migrate files (or even find the option to migrate files) located in my Previous Systems folder. I've been able to change the Privilege of these files to Read & Write (though my Permissions still indicate "You can only read.") and drag them from my previous Users folder to my current desktop, which creates a situation where I have them but am still unable to alter them (or delete them).
thanks, all.

Here's my exact issue: I've spent many hours converting vinyl records to mp3s, which were then stored in the iTunes folder of my previous system. Upon performing the Archive and Install, all of these files were located in my Previous Systems>Users>"X">Music folder, which initially could not be opened, prompting the notice, "The folder Music could not be opened because you do not have sufficient access privileges." So, I clicked "Get Info" and changed the Privilege from Read Only to Read & Write. From there I could open the folder, and as you pointed out, move these files wherever I chose. The problem is that I can't use them in any practical sense; I can't import them to my iTunes library and I can't delete them, being notified, "The operation can't be completed because backup items can't be modified." Which, would lead me to believe that I have yet to restore them properly.

How can I get Directory and Files from a Maped Networkdrive of the AppS

Hello,
we have the following Situation.
We have a Windows-Server (Server-A) in an Network with ActivDirectory and an Windows-Server (Server-B with an WebApplicationServer outside of these ActivDirectory as standalone.
On Server-B we mapped a Directory from Server-A (FileExplorer and then MapNetworkDrives) as Drive Q.
Now i tried to get the Directory of Q:\abcd but it doesn't work.
I tried the FM EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING and also RZL_READ_DIR, but both doesn't worked.
RZL_READ_DIR is doing a "CALL 'ALERTS' ..." and is comming back with sy-subrc = 1
EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING is doing a "CALL 'C_DIR_READ_FINISH'..." and comes back with "Wrong order of calls" in the Field file-errmsg. Next Call is "CALL 'C_DIR_READ_START'..." and this comes back with "opendir" in Field file-errmsg.
I tried the same with two Servers in the same ActivDirectory-Network. The Result was the same, i don't get the directory of the mapped drive. But now i get from the Call "CALL 'C_DIR_READ_START'..." the file-errmsg "opendir: Not a directory" and file-errno 20.
Is there any idea for solving my Problem?
I have to get this directory, read the files from the List and have to rename them after wriing the data to our databasefile.
I want to read them with OPEN DATASET, rename them by writing a new File (also OPEN DATASET) and after that i do an DELETE DATASET.
Thanks and Greetings Matthias

Download Photoshop Elements 6 for Macintosh. With PSE6 I made a slide show with 550 images 1920x1200, without thumbs. I ran into one problem making the slide show. My images contained 4 images which had not ben created by Photoshop and could not be included in the slide show. Opening the images in Photoshop CS4 and re-saving them still did not make then acceptable. Not a big deal. I probably could have fixed the four images by stripping all EXIF data before opening them in Photoshop. BTW, PSE6 made the slide show in demo mode.
I hope the bug in Photoshop CS4 will be fixed in Photoshop CS5.

You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend a LOT of money
on DRM protection.

Hello,
Here is the code to iterate through sites and lists:

SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
using (SPSite site = new SPSite(webUrl)) {
using (SPWeb oWebsite = site.OpenWeb())
SPListCollection collList = oWebsite.Lists;
foreach (SPList oList in collList)
{//your code goes here }
Then use RecursiveAll to get all files and folders.

How can I restore Parental Control Settings from Time Machine Backup?

I was trying to adjust one of the parental controlled accounts for my child. I disabled parental controls, rebooted, and re-enabled it. Now all the settings that I had setup before are gone. How can I restore Parental Control Settings from Time Machine Backup?

Hi ...
I've found a solution to my problem.
Time Machine locates extenal HDD backups differently depending if they were done via a network or via a USB/FireWire/Thunderbolt connection.
My initial backup was done via a direct Thunderbolt connection. I ran into the above issue b/c the second time when I tried looking for the backup file the HDD was conencted to my iMac and I was accessing it via a network conenction.
I simply connected the drive directly to my MacBook pro and ... voila. I was able to see the backup, select the iPhoto library and begin the restore.
Hope this helps.
BTW - I found this out by reading the 'blue box' selection on this page: http://pondini.org/TM/E2.html
(Thanks goes to Pondini!)
