10.4.7 networking problem - corrupt files when we save on the Xserve

I have upgrade 15 macs on my network from 10.3.9/10.4.4 to 10.4.7 - the Xserve was upgraded in 10.4.7 before. Now I have a lot of networks problems. When we save big files (quark Xpress 7, adobe illustrator CS, adobe photoshop), sometimes we lost our job, and we can't open the files (incorrect file format, postcript error in the illustrator file, lines in picture files...)
Sometimes, we can't import PDF in quark files, but, if we copy pdf files from the server to the desktop, xpress accept to import the pdf.
We also noted problems of refresh of the windows in the finder.
The Quark technical support is certain that the problem comes from the update 10.4.7 on the desktop computers, and suggest to wait until the 10.4.8 or to downgrad to 10.4.6.
Have you some infos about theses problems?
Thanks for you infos

Chatted with Apple re above. The guy was very patient and as helpful as he could be. Here's what he suggested:
At Terminal type:
sudo mdutil -s (drag the volume to here which enters the path)
You will be asked for your administrator password; enter this and press enter.
This commands returns the status of Indexing - namely my machine returned the following message-
Status: Indexing Disabled
Next I typed in:
sudo mdutil -i on (drag the volume to here which enters the path)
Press Enter
The following message is displayed:
Indexing enabled for volume.
Since then the machine has been very active (fans and disk lights) which I hope is it indexing the volume.
Spotlight works when the specific folder is selected but not across the whole volume. Sherlock still does not find any files. I remain positive, knowing that indexing takes plenty of time.
Thanks Apple Support for help

System Preferences > Network > Ethernet? If that shows "not connected" that is all your Mac knows. As far as it is concerned there is no cable connected to the port on your Mac, or the other end of the cable is either disconnected or connected to something that is broken.
Try another cable. If the cable is broken you will also get that status message. If you have exhausted all of these possibilities, the only remaining cause is an inoperative port on your Mac.

GoodReaderUSB originally worked by transferring files to a special location on a user’s iPhone, which iPhone’s GoodReader app was able to access. However, accessing this location was a violation of Apple’s iPhone SDK Agreement, because the app had to access files outside its own private storage space, which is forbidden by Apple.
Because of this, your only choice to fix this. at this point, may be to restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes and NOT from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Unfortunately, ALL saved data on your phone will be lost.

HT1461 For Boot Camp, if you save a file when you are on the Windows side, when you return to the Mac side, can you see the file or can it only be "seen" on the operating side you create it in?

Why don't you (generic most every post lacks critical details) be clear and say you never used Mac OS etc.
But, I did try to anticipate and give you what you needed.
Excel is one of those rare programs that, if they are extremely large complex spreadsheets still tend to run better under Office for Windows.
A VM won't do for that but it does make it easier to transition. As in: install Windows natively, then use VMware Fusion or Parallels to attach to the partition and OS. That way you can run Windows as Guest OS VM under Mac; and still run Windows natively dual-boot when needed.
The word "see" was not what you wanted, was it? really? you want to open and make changes and keep it on Windows side rather than Save As or copy to Mac
You use Windows and don't know it has NTFS (NT FileSystem)?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_File_System (HFS) native file system used by Apple
And there is much more UEFI style "bios" and other things I suppose.
Great thing about Google and encyclopedias or dictionary, you can look up what you don't know.

Anyone having the same problem?

Makes no difference if anyone is having the same problem. The important thing is that it's happening to YOU!
You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems.

Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup. However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails. And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external. Sort of a catch 22. Any ideas?

Is it a USB hard drive? USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice. Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem. If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time. I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

How stop PS6 from removing the DPI value from an image when using "save for the web"?

How stop PS6 from removing the DPI-value from an image when using "save for the web"?
Example:
- Open a tif image, that contains a dpi value (resolution).
- Use the splice tool in PS6.
- Export the slices with "Save for web", as gif-files.
Then the dpi value is removed, the gif files has no dpi value (it's empty).
How can we stop PS6 from removing the dpi value when using "save for web"?
OR:
When using the slice tool, how can we save the sliced pieces without PS removing the dpi value?

you can make your art go a little bit over the bounds. or you can make sure your artboart and art edges align to pixels

PM 7.0 SP2 Pagemaker Corrupts files when it opens them

I work in the IT department at a hospital and the hard drive failed in our Print Shops computer. After reinstalling all the programs I'm having problems with page maker 7.0 whenever I open a document with it (from a networked drive) it corrupts the file and page maker crashes. That user's manager also has page maker and can open the files without a problem (before the first computer corrupts them). We had problems with Xp sp3 and in design/page maker so we have it running Sp2 so that shouldn't be an issue and I have tried reinstalling pagemaker and that didn't help anything. Anyone have any ideas that I can try to get this working correctly?

I just tried that approach, I copy pasted the file onto the desktop and it did not work, when it opened it just gave me a dialog box telling me that the file was not closed successfully the last time it was used. the file opens fine on another computer we have thats running pagemaker so I do not understand why it is getting this error.
when i click no, in order to open the last successfully saved version pagemaker opens but its blank, and there is no document to view

<element name="FieldTwo" type="string" nxsd:style="terminated"
nxsd:terminatedBy="|" nxsd:quotedBy="<"/>

Xmp sync problems--corrupted files?

I have been having lots of problems getting my xmp metadata sorted out. I am a new user to Lightroom, but I think I have figured out most of what I need successfully.
I use a variety of programs to edit the xmp data (mostly Lightroom and exiftool right now), so I know the importance of the "Automatically write XMP data to file setting" (ON in my case). After a few days (actually more like a week) of writing xmp data and then reading into (or synching folders in) Lightroom, I found a number of "metadata conflicts" in my catalog. Since these are basically impossible to fix for a large catalog (since there is no way to show the files that have conflicts), I started over and created a new catalog, and imported all 40,000+ images into it.
However, with my new catalog (with presumably no metadata conflicts), the first image that I tried to change the metadata on gave me a metadata conflict (presumably when Lightroom tried to save the xmp data after I changed it). This was a jpg file, so the metadata is being (or not being) written into the file. Reading the metadata from the file into Lightroom did not fix the problem. The Metadata Status field in the Lightroom Metadata panel says "Unknown" and clicking on the word "Unknown" brings up a panel saying "There was an unknown error while writing metadata to this photo. Retry?", and neither retrying the save nor importing the settings from disk resolves the conflict.
I think that the problem is that the jpeg is somehow corrupt, because if I save a copy in Photoshop, I can read and write the metadata in that copy. And, the copy has, I think, the same metadata as the original. (Of course, the image is probably imperceptibly degraded because I re-jpeg'd it).
There is no message in Console (I'm on Mac). (See PS)
I am worried that I have a number of files with this kind of problem, and I'd like to find the problem and fix it. Any ideas for a strategy to go about doing this? I guess I could "Save Metadata" for all files in my catalog (thus updating the file modified date for all 2 TB of data, and causing a massive backup issue), and then look through my catalog for those elusive exclamation points. But I'd like something better.
I have no idea how the jpeg could have gotten corrupted, but I do have an archived version that I could look at.
Any thoughts on next steps?
TIA
Alan
PS--I did find this in my console output hundreds of times:
8/10/11 2:40:00 PM    Adobe Lightroom 3[404]    KeywordUsageStatistics    ERROR    Bad popularity entry for 1937630: occurrences is negative: -1
I don't know if that is related, but it worries me.

After moving LR3.5 and catalogs to a new computer running Windows 7 and LR from an XP system, I suddenly had 6400 files with exclamation points--failure to synch metadata or similar warnings on every file. If I thought I had one without the error, if I clicked on it--there error showed up.    It was very frustrating and I was wondering if I was going to have to keep my old computer forever.
After I searched for a couple of hours and found that there have been several discussions concerning failures to sync xmp sidecar files and failures to write metadata on this forum and others. Some of the postings had angry rants against Adobe. On my system, it was not Adobe that should be blamed, it was Microsoft:
On one of the Adobe threads, I noticed a post that the person had multiple external drives and the problem did not show itself on one drive. The person said that changing the permissions on the other hard drives solved the problem.   I tried this and it worked for me. I did not have this problem with this same drive on my XP system. I will try to find that other forum and thank the person who gave me the solution.

Corrupt file when Downloading iTunes+Quicktime

Im on my sisters laptop and when I try to install iTunes, it says there is a corrupt file. Im sorry if someone else has had this problem and Im just repeating it. But, she has had iTunes before, but had her pc wiped out. Could that have something to do with it? And is anyone else having this problem

There is a very comprehensive post on the subject at this link: "What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message" http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1726580#1726580

Keep getting corrupted temp save file when I save and close.

When I save and close a numbers spreadsheet, about 20% of the time I will be left with the normal file and a weird temporary file with a "~" on the end of the file name. I can't delete the file or do anything with it. It will let me open it, but even when I save it still says I cant delete because the file is in use.
Example-
Work on spreadsheet1. Hit save and then close.
In finder I am left with-
spreadsheet1
spreadsheet1~
"spreadsheet1" is the correct file and it works and functions normally, but "spreadsheet1~" is corrupt and I cant seem to delete it. I always get "The operation can’t be completed because the item “spreadsheet1~” is in use.
What is causing this and how can I get rid of those files?

I think I would ignore the files and not worry about them. Are you experiencing any undesirable effects of these files-- aside from seeing them there?
