Best way to read NTFS and WRITE to it?

I know there is a laborious 3rd party software called MacFuse that will allow Macs to read AND write to a NTFS drive..but does anyone know of a more reliable and easier way? MacFuse sounds like a tech savvy way to go about and do it....
Just curious...
Thanks!

There is shareware programed called Paragon NTFS. However, I see no reason not to use MacFuse and NTFS-3g. Both are open-source programs that are easy to use.
Simply download and install MacFuse and than do the same for NTFS-3g. They both use preference panes for settings, but they work "as-is". Once installed together, NTFS volumes work the same as any other volume in OS X. It's not only for the "tech-savvy".

  • What is the best way to read, process, and write an Excel File Server side...SQL Server Agent Job

    So I was using dynamic Excel commands to open and save as using...
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application
    and
     workbook.SaveAs(StringDestinationFile, XlFileFormat.xlExcel8, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, XlSaveAsAccessMode.xlExclusive, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing);
    which worked all fine and dandy client side. Then when I attempted to create a SQL Server Agent Job, this failed as a result of SQL Server side not being able to execute dynamic Excel commands.
    So do I need to therefore try and do this function via Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 commands? And where can I find the commands and syntax to open and save as? I have to Open a .xlsx file, save it as a .xls file, and then open this newly created .xls file and
    then save it as a .csv file.
    Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

    I think you might be over complicating things.
    You can use SSIS with Excel Source/Destination connections to read in, or output to an excel sheet/file.

  • What is the best way to read and manipulate large data in excel files and show them in Sharepoint

    Hi ,
    I have a large excel file that has 700,000 records in it. The excel file has a few columns that change every day.
    What is the best way to read the data form the excel file in fastest and most efficient way.
    2 nd Problem,
    I have one excel file that has many rows each row contain some data that has certain keywords.
    What I want is  to segregate the data of rows into respective sheets(tabs ) in the workbook.
    for example in rows have following data 
    1. Alfa
    2beta
    3 gama
    4beta
    5gama
    6gama
    7alfa
    in excel
    I want there to be 3 tabs now with each of the key words alfa beta and gamma.

    Hi,
    I don't really see any better options for SharePoint. SharePoint use other production called 'Office Web App' to allow users to view/edit Microsoft Office documents (word, excel etc.). But the web version of excel doesn't support that much records as well
    as there's size limitations (probably the default max size is 10MB).
    Regarding second problem, I think you need some custom solutions (like a SharePoint timer job/webpart ) to read and present data.
    However, if you can reduce the excel file records to something near 16k (which is supported rows in web version of excel) then you can use SharePoint Excel service to refresh data automatically in the excel file in SharePoint from some external sources.
    Thanks,

  • How to read from and write into the same file from multiple threads?

    I need to read from and write into a same file multiple threads.
    How can we do that without any data contamination.
    Can u please provide coding for this type of task.
    Thanks in advance.

    Assuming you are using RandomAccessFile, you can use the locking functionality in the Java NIO library to lock sections of a file that you are reading/writing from each thread (or process).
    If you can't use NIO, and all your threads are in the same application, you can create your own in-process locking mechanism that each thread uses prior to accessing the file. That would take some development, and the OS already has the capability, so using NIO is the best way to go if you can use JDK 1.4 or higher.

  • What's the best way for reading this binary file?

    I've written a program that acquires data from a DAQmx card and writes it on a binary file (attached file and picture). The data that I'm acquiring comes from 8 channels, at 2.5MS/s for, at least, 5 seconds. What's the best way of reading this binary file, knowing that:
    -I'll need it also on graphics (only after acquiring)
    -I also need to see these values and use them later in Matlab.
    I've tried the "Array to Spreadsheet String", but LabView goes out of memory (even if I don't use all of the 8 channels, but only 1).
    LabView 8.6
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    AcquireWrite02.vi ‏15 KB
    myvi.jpg ‏55 KB

    But my real problem, at least now, is how can I divide the information to get not only one graphic but eight?
    I can read the file, but I get this (with only two channels):
    So what I tried was, using a for loop, saving 250 elements in different arrays and then writing it to the .txt file. But it doesn't come right... I used 250 because that's what I got from the graphic: at each 250 points it plots the other channel.
    Am I missing something here? How should I treat the information coming from the binary file, if not the way I'm doing?
    (attached are the .vi files I'm using to save in the .txt format)
    (EDITED. I just saw that I was dividing my graph's data in 4 just before plotting it... so It isn't 250 but 1000 elements for each channel... Still, the problem has not been solved)

  • Best way to read from a file

    What would be the best way to read from a file. Which classes do I need to use?
    I have to write a program, which reads data from a comma separated flat file, parse it and after inserting some busineess logic insert into a databse .
    I will have to read the data line by line.
    Any help????

    I would use:
         public void readData()
              try
                   data = new String[this.countRows("comp.txt")][];
                   BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("comp.txt"));
                   for(int x = 0; x < data.length; x++)
                        StringTokenizer temp = new StringTokenizer(br.readLine(), "?");
                        data[x] = new String[temp.countTokens()];
                        for(int y = 0; y < data[x].length; y++)
                             data[x][y] = temp.nextToken();
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
         private int countRows(String f)
              int t = 0;
              try
                   BufferedReader brCountRows = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(f));
                   while(brCountRows.readLine() != null)
                        t++;
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
                   return t;
              return t;
         }It works deliciously!

  • What is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?

    For I-phone and I-pad, what is the best way to open emails and attachments without using wifi?  I turned off wifi in my settings but my boss thinks there may be another way and a better way to use something else instead of wifi.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Thanks!  That is a very good question you post.  My boss asked me that and I am assuming that he is having issues with using wifi wherever he is at.  My boss is the kind of person that when he asks something you look into it and ask him no questions...he's the only one asking questions!  But thank you for your response I will tell him the information you told me and hopefully that will help!

  • Best Way to Stack 2d and 3d in a Composite

    Hey everyone, it seems I'm really on a 3d binge with Photoshop CS6. It's just a blast! Anyway, I'm looking to figure out the best way to stack 2d and 3d items together in the same document, and maximize the editibility...
    I'm working on a digital room setting, and I have part of the room in 3d and part in 2d. So, for example, the walls, ceiling, floor, table, chairs and corner hutch are 3d, but the regular hutch and buffet server are in 2d.
    - The table and chairs need to be in the foreground
    - The regular hutch and server are behind the table and chairs
    - The corner hutch needs to be behind all other pieces of furniture
    So, you may be catching on by now to my little dilemna... I want all the 3D items to have the same lighting and reflect off one another, however, I need the 2d layers to somehow fit "inbetween" the 3d objects. The simple question is, how can this be done? Is there a way to mask the foreground 3D objects so that they appear to be in from of the 2D objects? My only current solution is this:
    - Move the whole 3D layer (the scene layer) all the way to the back
    - Make the final decision on the position of the table and chairs
    - Hide all other meshes in the scene besides the table and chairs
    - Render, so the edges are clean
    - Load the newly rendered 3D layer as a selection (which loads the table and chairs only)
    - Either create a new layer from the selection of the rendered 3D layer, or mask the 3D layer so that the table and chairs appear to be in the foreground
    I didn't anticipate this post being this long, so I apologize,... but as you can assume, the method above means I can no longer edit/reposition/scale the 3D at all, so if there's a better way to stack these room elements I would be extremely grateful to whoever knows how!
    Thanks!
    Andy

    First, I was wrong about layers needing to be hidden to prevent their appearance being included in a new Postcard. I misunderstood something that happened when working with a 3D document a while ago.
    Materials support transparency/opacity. A material has an opacity control that can use a texture. The material opacity percentage is multiplied by the opacity of the texture.
    When a Postcard is created, its default material's opacity control will contain an instance of the texture that's in the diffuse control, which is a PSB file containing the 2D layer (pixels, Shape, Smart Object or Group) from which the Postcard was created.
    Here is an example. Two solid Pyramid meshes and a Postcard of a cloud Shape layer:
    The Shape layer from which the Postcard was created is in the document that can be opened by picking Edit in the dropdown of the buttons highlighted above:

  • Best way to handle audio and video?

    Can someone give me suggestions on best way to handle audio and video clips. 2 issues:
    Audio- I want to avoid problems for visitors who may need to install something to listen, and would like them to be able to remain viewing page while listening. I understand how to set up the Iweb player option, and I understand how to simply link to a mp3 file that relies on the visitors player. I'm thinking I need to "embed a player" (?) which is something I haven't dealt with yet.
    Video- I have a link to a .mov file. It plays it in either a real small box, or if you enlarge it , the image deteriorates. Is there a better way to handle this?

  • What's the best way to read JSON data?

    Hi all;
    What is the best way to read in JSON data? And is the best way to use it once read in to turn it into XML and apply XPath?
    thanks - dave

    jtahlborn wrote:
    without having a better understanding of what your definition of "use it" is, this question is essentially unanswerable. Jackson is a fairly popular library for translating json to/from java objects. the json website provides a very basic library for parsing to/from xml. which one is the "best" depends on what you want to do with it.Good point. We have a reporting product ([www.windward.net|http://www.windward.net]) and we've had a number of people ask us for JSON support. But how complex the data is and what they want to pull is all over the place. The one thing that's commin is they generally want to pull down the JSON data, and then put specific items from that in the report.
    XML/XPath struck me as a good way to do this for a couple of reasons. First it seems to map well to the JSON data layout. Second it provides a known query language. Third, we have a really good XPath wizard and we could then use it for JSON also.

  • Best way to read chars from InputStream

    Hope this is not a too newbie question.
    Suppose I have an unbuffered InputStream inputStream, what is the best way to read chars from it (in terms of performance)?
    Reader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream));
    reader.read()
    or
    Read reader = new InputStreamReader(new BufferedInputStream(inputStream))
    reader.read()
    Is there a difference between the two and if so, which one is better?
    thanks.

    If you are reading using a buffer of your own, then adding a buffer for binary data is a bad idea.
    However for text, using a BufferedInputStream could be better as it reduces calls to the OS.
    If it really matters, I suggest you do a simple performance test which runs for at least a few seconds to see what the difference is. (You should runt he test mroe than once)

  • Best way to move data and programs to another profile on same Mac?

    Hello,
    What is the best way to move data and programs to another profile on the same Mac? I have a user who's profile is corrupt, I know that most programs will work on both the new and old profile however when trying to copy the Desktop folder, or Documents folder I am getting permissions denied.
    Sort of like weeding a garden, I'm hoping I do not have to pick the data in each folder and copy individually.
    Thanks for your help!
    Johnathon

    This usually means that a configuration or preference file is corrupted.  In this user's /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder locate any preference files associated with iLinc and drag to the Trash.
    I would also check in the /Home/Library/Caches/ folder for a file or folder associated with iLinc and delete as well.
    See if the problem is resolved in the user's normal account.
    It's not that you cannot copy data from account to account, but doing so causes a lot of permissions issues that must be resolved.  The MacFixit article I linked above shows what you need to do after transferring from one account to another in order to change permissions on the "foreign" files to those of the destination account.
