HT2494 I am trying to pull files of USB drive where do I plug in and whats next

I am trying to pull files off usb port, where do I plug in and how do I access the files?

You connect the drive to any USB port on the computer or keyboard, and then select it from the desktop, Finder's sidebar, or Computer in the Go menu.

Moving files from USB drive (iPod in disk mode) stops and hangs Finder

I’m having trouble trying to copy a load of music files from my iPod to my new MacBook. The iPod is in disk mode so I’m just using it to move a load of MP3 files from my old PC to my MacBook. They copied from the PC fine and are sat in a fold on the iPod (which I boot into disk mode and connect to my MacBook running Leopard 10.5.5).
The disks mount fine and I can read and playback the files, but when I start to copy them to my MacBook after a minute or too the progress bar stops and it just sits there. I have thousands of file that I need to move and even tried to move say 100 at a time, but after the first few hundred it just stops again.
I have to force quit the finder, but this then hangs the finder unless I disconnect my iPod and then the finder starts back up but warns me that I have removed a driver without first ejecting it.
My iPod is a Video model 5.5 80GB which I connect via USB 2.0 to my MacBook. Anyone got any ideas why copying the files isn’t working?

Thanks for those suggestions. I have tried copying them one by one, but with over 6000 files it’s just not feasible to do this. I don't think adding more memory will help as my MacBook is the new Aluminum model with a 2.0GHz processor and 2GB. I have also tried connecting the same iPod to a Mac Pro with dual 2.8GHz processors, 4GB memory and a set of RAID hard drives and this also has the same problem as my MacBook.
Also, none of the files have any DRM protection.

I am trying to connect Garritan Personal Symphony to Logic Express and Garageband. A dialog box pops up and asks for plugin Garritan-P. Where do I find it and what do I do with it. I can't locate this plugin doing searches on any of the porgrams.

I'm not sure which version of Garritan Personal Orchestra you have or when you are getting a window pop-up, but check this link for starters:

How to Convert standalone .OVF\VMDK file to VHD, without having a VMWare server. We have a .OVF file on USB drive

How do I Convert standalone .OVF\VMDK file to VHD, without having a VMWare server. We have an .OVF file on USB drive. Running Hyper V 2012 SP1 and need to convert this to run on our system. Basically a vender of ours has decided
not to house our servers that they used to support one of our environments. They used VMware and we are a Hyper V shop. Now they are sending it back in an OVF format and telling us to convert it to VHD. Only tool I found was Microsoft converter
tool and you need a VMware server to do that. The exporter tool is another but doesn't actually do any conversion. Can anyone help?
Thanks

If the Java application must be stand-alone you must not deploy it on WebLogic, then WebLogic will manage its lifecycle.
In this case you can use the CommonJ API and use the timermanager if it must run on a certain time. More information
of how to do this can be found here: http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=5569
If you keep the Java application stand-only and want to use a cron job you can follow the example presented here: http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=7065
Note that the example runs a WLST script, but you can follow the same steps to run your Java application.

Best way to move files to external drive in LR 5. Drag and drop or export, if drag and drop

Best way to move files to external drive in LR 5. Drag and drop or export, if drag and drop can I put all the dated folders into one single folder

Drag and drop should do the job. Or move the files (or folders) in your operating system and then re-link via http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm
Yes, you can put all the dated folders into a single folder (but if you plan to do this, then don't try move the files using your operating system and re-link)
Export most definitely isn't the solution.

When will my icloud folder reflect memory upgrade? I am trying to move files from google drive folder to icloud.

My icloud folder does not reflect storage upgrade. I only had 25GB on my google drive and I have 500GB on my icloud but cannot move these files over. Whats up?

How much free storage do you have on your system drive? Since all files on iCloud Drive will be mirrored on your system drive as shadow copies in your user library, you can only keep as many files on iCloud Drive as can be kept on your system drive as well.
You cannot use iCloud Drive to save space on your system drive, if that is what you are trying to do.

Can't Delete Files on USB Drive Connected to Airport Extreme

I'm trying to delete some files on a USB drive connected to my Airport Extreme, but I keep getting a error message that I don't have sufficient privileges to do so. I've tried super deletion applications like FileXaminer, without any success. What other methods are there?

Thanks for the info.
Were you using the drive for Time Machine backups, by chance? Time Machine backups are stored in a different format when the disk is connected directly to a computer. So, you won't be able to continue to use the old backups when the drive location is changed.
You might want to check the drive by connecting directly to your Mac and running Disk Utility to "Verify Disk" and "Repair Disk" if indicated.
Even if the drive has it's own power supply, a powered USB hub is usually needed on the AirPort Extreme because the power at the USB port is quite limited.

Back up - large files - external USB drive - copy failure

Just the facts:
I cannot backup my Music folder to an external USB FAT32 drive. I have no large single files over the FAT32 limit of 4GB. The copy process stops at various amounts progess: 500MB to 6GB. My Music folder is ~16GB total in size. I recently did a clean install from Tiger. I had no issues moving my 14GB Music folder in Tiger to this same external drive.
1) Has anyone solved this?
2) Has anyone talked to Apple support in a store or over the phone on this?
3) Anyway to highlight a (likely) important issue with Leopard to the Apple folks?
There are numerous posts all dealing with moving/copying large files. Seems to be a common issue to Time Machine, iDisk, external drives, copying large folders to Desktop, and others.
Cheers,
MostlyHarmless
PS New Mac user and really like it so far. I realize these are just Leopard "birth pains."

This is the Windows forum, not the Mac forum.
But it's the same. Simply drag the iTunes folder to the external drive.
Or use a backup prgroam such as SuperDuper!
You do have a bootable backup of your internal HD, correct?

[SOLVED]Error when trying to boot from a usb drive

I have installed arch linux on a usb drive.
When I am trying to load it , I get the following error :
ERROR: '/dev/disk/by-label/ARCH_201211' device did not show up after 30 seconds
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Use a BitTorrent client instead of a ddl (direct download link). This way it's less prone to errors, because it's checked while it's being downloaded.
Either that, or check its MD5 against the one from the Download page.
There's also this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Be … ion_medium
Note: The quality of optical drives and the discs themselves varies greatly. Generally, using a slow burn speed is recommended for reliable burns. If you are experiencing unexpected behaviour from the disc, try burning at the lowest speed supported by your burner.

HT201372 I am trying to create a bootable USB drive for Yosemite and the terminal is telling me /Volumes/Untitled is not a valid volume mount point. HELP!!!

I erased the USB drive and partitioned it as directed in order to create a bootable drive. When I type in the sudo command in the terminal, it is telling me that /Volumes/Untitled is not a valid volume mount point. HELP!!!

FYI
my process just completed: here is what I see when it is done... (the first you saw in my earlier post. It took about 15-20 minutes.
To continue we need to erase the disk at /Volumes/Recovery.

[Solved] Delete files from usb drive connected to wireless router

Hello,
I have a home network with Samba for file sharing.
I have a Netgear router with a Western Digital 2TB external drive attached to the router.
I installed Samba according to the arch wiki and everything works fine but I cannot delete or access some files from the shared USB drive.
I access the file as follows:
$ cd /mnt/smbnet/WORKGROUP/READYSHARE/USB_Storage/
Here are the permissions:
$ ls -l /mnt/smbnet

Here is the output:
$ mount | grep /mnt
smbnetfs on /mnt/smbnet type fuse.smbnetfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=100)
The USB drive is Western Digital My Book 2 TB drive attached as a NAS to the router that shares it. I installed Samba on the arch machine so I can access and backup various home computers onto the NAS.
Here is some info I just found on the Western Digital Support site:
The Western Digital units mentioned above use a proprietary file system and cannot be reformatted as FAT32, NTFS, or a Mac File System.
The file system on the WD My Cloud EX2, WD My Cloud EX4, WD My Cloud, WD My Book Live, WD My Book Live Duo, WD ShareSpace, WD ShareSpace, WD TV Live Hub, My Net N900 Central, WD My Book World Edition, WD NetCenter hard drives support access from Windows, Mac and most Linux based computer systems through a SAMBA network sharing connection.
I thought I would mention that I can access the NAS and write, read and execute from the drive.
$ cd /mnt/smbnet/WORKGROUP/READYSHARE/USB_Storage/
[edgar@arch USB_Storage]$ mkdir Test
[edgar@arch USB_Storage]$ ls
BACKUPS Test WD
[edgar@arch USB_Storage]$ cd Test
[edgar@arch Test]$ vim testfile.txt
[edgar@arch Test]$ ls -l
total 1
-rwxr--r-- 1 edgar users 16 Jul 23 07:47 testfile.txt
[edgar@arch Test]$ cat testfile.txt
This is a test.
[edgar@arch Test]$ rm testfile.txt
[edgar@arch Test]$ cd ..
[edgar@arch USB_Storage]$ rm -r Test/
[edgar@arch USB_Storage]$ ls
BACKUPS WD
However I want to copy large files with cp -ruv from my arch machine to the NAS.
This is where the trouble lies. Thanks for your help.

Need some clue how to fix it...

Can't see files on USB drive on PC side

I'm on an intel mac and I have an USB external hard drive. I can only read and write to the drive on the Mac side. I would love it if i could access files (read and write) on the PC side too. Please help!!! Thanks

If you formatted the drive in an Apple file format Windows won't be able to read it unless you turn on personal file sharing and Windows sharing in the System Preferences and access it through the Mac. Otherwise, you would need to reformat it as FAT 32 to share files directly but that format has a 4 GB file size limit.
If you have an Airport Express Base Station you could connect it to that as a network drive and then you could share files with it, as the AEBS would handle the actual file reads and writes to and from the drive.

Accessing file on USB Drive

I have a requirement that my Air application accesses a file (SQL Lite) that resides on a USB drive. Is there a way I can resolve the path to a USB drive at runtime? Since I can't be sure what drive letter the USB device is mapped to (this will be distributed to a couple hundred users), is there a way to detect this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
nop the only way is if you are sure for one folder or file name to parse the root of all volumes for find this name and use the finded volume.
