Bluetooth mac to mac - File Transfer Problem

Okay, Transfer files from one to another mac via BlueTooth File Exchange . the grouping of files were 80gb of mp3 files being pulled from a external drive being sent to my other mac's external drive as it prepared the file it ran for a period of time after a while it said out of space although it never even sent one file to the other computer it filled my hard drive of the computer hosting the external drive of files now i can't locate the source of nearly 40+ gb of wasted space can someone help?

Hi, Michael. Why not just connect both external drives to the same Mac and forget about BlueTooth?

New to MacBook - slow LAN file transfer problem

My new MacBook is painfully slow when wifi-ing to my house LAN.
I turned in my old G4 iBook for a MacBook (2GHz C2D, 2GB, 10.4.9, all updates). I have a LAN that consists of a wired 1G Ethernet backbone (a Mini and a Powermac G5 are wired in) and a Snow AEB that provides 802.11g wifi access to the LAN. The wired LAN connects to a D-Link GB Ethernet switch so the wired systems can exchange files fast. The switch connects to a D-Link EBR2310 router that connects to a cable modem to ComCast. The router has the latest firmware (1.05, it's an 'A' version router).
The Mini, G5, and MB are static IPs on the LAN. The D-Link router passes out DHCP addresses >100, with addresses <101 reserved for static LAN IPs. I use static IPs for network reliability when recovering from power outages and other unforeseen glitches. The LAN has worked very well in this configuration, with fast file transfers among machines and good stability.
With my old 802.11g G4 iBook, I was able to watch DVDs that are stored on an external FW drive connected to the Mini. No stalls, no pauses, no dropouts - MenuMeters showed an average throughput of about 700KBytes/sec on the iBook when viewing a DVD. I used both VLC and DVD Player with good results.
With my new MacBook, I can't view my DVD files. 802.11g network transfer rates to the MB (indicated by MenuMeters and by Activity Monitor) vary rapidly from a high of about 1.1 MBytes/sec to 20 KBytes/sec. Movies stall, skip, etc.
Simple file copies from one system to another are also much slower with the MacBook - an average of ~100KBytes/sec vs. ~ 1.5 MBytes/sec with my old iBook. In short, the MacBook is dog-slow in file transfers from the other machines compared with my old iBook when using the wifi connection, with no change to the network infrastructure in going from the old laptop to the new. I would like to fix this.
My AEB is set up in bridge mode (simple access point) with WPA2 security. All three Macs are completely current with latest updates, as is the Snow AEB. The MB has 4 bars of signal strength. Slow file transfer problem does not change when moving the MB to or from the AEB.
Curiously, when I download a large file (like the Intel 10.4.9 combo update), the MB shows a steady ~800KBytes/sec download speed, with none of the speed variation it shows with file transfers from either the Mini or the G5. File transfers to/from the MB to either of the other Macs are very slow.
Both the Mini and the G5 have Airport cards: when I switch them from wired Ethernet LAN to wifi LAN, they transfer files between each other at ~ 2MBytes/sec - about what you'd expect from an 802.11g protocol. So the slow file transfer doesn't seem to be due to the AEB, it seems to be specific to the MacBook. When I connect the MB using its hardware Ethernet port, files transfer just as fast as the other systems.
I have tried these measures, without effect on the problem:
- power off/restart of every component in the system;
- changing the AEB to an open network mode;
- changing the MB from static IP to DHCP;
- toggling IPv6 on/off;
- running no applications other than Finder on all systems;
Activity Monitor on the MB doesn't show anything sucking up CPU cycles during file transfers. I have plenty of RAM. The only thing I've changed in the network is the swap of the iBook for the MacBook.
Can anyone suggest what else I can try to make acquisition of this nice shiny MacBook a step forward, rather than a step back? Thank you!

Hi,
Did you want to use the Live Migrations for that?
We recommend that you configure separate dedicated networks with gigabit or faster speed for live migration traffic and cluster communication, and these networks should be separate from the network used by the management operating system, and from the network
used by the virtual machines.

File transfer problem

I have a 2009 intel iMAC running 10.6.8. Several months ago it developed a file transfer problem. When transferring files to an external server via ethernet cable, most of the time it will only let me transfer one file at a time whether is a small word document or a large video file that is several gigabytes. Even with transferring just one file, the elapsed time bar will not indicate the file has completely transferred. It stays open and appears as if it is still trying to transfer even though the file size transferred is equal to the size of the file. Plus the only way I can close the the transfer bar is to relaunch finder. Then when I go to the folder it was transferring it to, the entire file will be there.
Suggestions?

Have you tried restarting the external drive and the computer?

10.5.2. Mac-to-Mac File Sharing problem

Sorry for the duplicate post. I posted this in the "Using OSX" forum as well since I wasn't sure the best place to post it.
I have two Macs running 10.5.2. A 2.5Ghz G5 connected via an ethernet cable to an AEBS. And a 2.4Ghz MBP that is wirelessly connected to the same router.
In 10.5.1, internet access, screen sharing, and file sharing worked flawlessly on both Macs. I installed 10.5.2 on both Macs and now file sharing is a problem when initiated from the MBP. BTW, I'm using AFP for file sharing.
Here's the scenario. I go into Finder on the MBP, choose the G5 Mac under "Shared" in the sidebar and begin to copy a file from the G5 to the MBP. All is well so far and the transfer speed is fine (~6 mbps). As soon as I load any webpage using either Safari or Firefox on the MBP, the file transfer slows to maybe 50-100kps. Closing the browser does not cause the transfer to speed up again. If I initiate the same file transfer from the G5 there is no problem and opening webpages on either Mac doesn't affect the transfer.
Even while the file transfer has ground to a halt, Internet access and screen sharing initiated from either computer continues to work fine.
I've tried the usual things like rebooting and repairing permissions but nothing seems to help. Is anyone else experiencing this? Doe anyone have any thoughts on how to correct it?

All I can contribute is a "me too". Here's the situation:
I have a Power Macintosh G5 dual 2.7GHz that I use as a server at work. I frequently synchronize files (over AFS File Sharing) over an Ehternet LAN between it and my MacBook Pro. My MacBook Pro has been running Leopard for several months while my PowerMac G5 was running 10.4.11 until this week. Having been happy with Leopard on my MBP, I decided to upgrade my G5. Since then, file transfers between the two computers have been a royal disaster. When I initially connect I can get speeds of up to 1.5 MB/s, but it quickly drops to 30KB/s or less. I can't quite figure out the pattern. It does seem uploading to my G5 is not as affected as downloading from my G5.
Given the fact I didn't see any file transfer issues between the two computers before upgrading the G5 to Leopard (10.5.2), I suspect the issue is with the PowerMac G5 solely or due to the communication between two Leopard computers.
On my G5, I tinkered with the "Advanced" settings in the Network Preference Pane. Since I have read some comments criticizing Apple's automatic flow control for network traffic as implemented in Leopard, what I did was click the "Advanced..." button on the Network PrefPane:
* I then clicked on the "Ethernet" tab
* I switched "Configure" to Manually:
* I switched "Speed" to 100baseTX (my LAN is 100baseT)
* I switched "Duplex" to "full duplex" without "flow-control"
Since this switch, it seems things are much better as I am getting file transfer speeds of 11.0MB/s. I am not sure if this is a complete fix as I have only had it implemented for the last 20 minutes and I have noticed this problem is intermittent, but it seems to be holding. I suspect the problem is with MacOS 10.5.2's attempts to automatically control the flow of network traffic, since all I did was disable that. I'll post later if this doesn't hold up (and if my brain remembers to post). I will follow this thread for a bit as well.

Bluetooth File Transfer Problem with Video Clips -...

Hello!
I am posting this problem even though a similar one is claimed to be solved ...
I have a similar Problem with BT video clip file transfer in my E5-00 as someone had earlier with music files (SW up to date). Except that in this case the files are unique video clips received from one of the latest Samsung Android phones via Bluetooth (don't ask me which format).
Tried the obvious first, using Windows File Manager over USB. Even Windows Search could not locate the files, not even using wildcards.
Also tried using Ovi Suite Syncronisation, but the files did not appear in either Photos/Videos or Messages (even though the files are in the SMS Inbox - does not make sense why).
The problem in applying the solution approach presented here for Music seems to be that the files cannot be played at all in my E5-00's. Therefore I don't get as far as to the menu where the E5 would ask whether or not the files should be saved or not.
So far I have not been able to connect to an old bluetooth laptop (Windows XP) so that the Bluetooth Exchange would connect let alone seen whether the BTexchange works in this case or not.
Is there any other chance of getting to the files through the directory structure? If so, please give me the (Windows) directory path? Any other advice than switching to Android?

Unfortunately I have reached an impasse. If I touch a video clip (in organizer) the system crashes. I mean locked up cold. I'm not sure what has caused this but I do know that I will not be able to communicate correctly or sufficiently with you in order for you to help me out.
I've found PS and Premier to be very difficult to work with. Very, very frustrating. Photography, both still and video, is not as enjoyable as it once was.
Again, I very much appreciate your initial help and if I get to a point where I've improved my situation ... I'll reach out again. Thanks

Firewire File Transfer Problem/ Dual Drive G4 to iMac

Bought a new iMac. My old G4 (OSX10.3.9) has two internal HDs (30Gb & 40GB <my startup>) but only 30Gb drive shows up in target mode. Can't mount 40 Gb drive on iMac desktop to do file transfer when G4 is in "Target" mode? Called Apple "help" and was told to connect FW cables with a "Powered FW hub". No luck! Only 30GB shows up (Disk 0) and 40Gb (Disk 1) doesn't mount! Any suggestions?
Louie ([email protected])

Mike and Karn
Thank you both for your helpful and knowledgeable suggestions. Earlier this afternoon, I took my G4 to a local Mac store where the tech fixed the "problem" in 5 minutes for NO CHARGE. He just moved jumpers making the hard drive I wanted to use as a "target" now readable and the other as the slave. I have busily been transferring stuff to my new iMac.
Too bad the "Applecare" telephone "tech" which I waited well over an hour to speak with a few days ago did not the simple and correct answer but instead told me to by a "powered firewire hub"!!
Thanks, Louie

File transfer problem from iTunes to BlueFire Reader

With my iPad 2 attached to my Mac computer, I added an ebook (purchased from and downloaded to iTunes) to the file transfer list of files for use with my BlueFire Reader.
The ebook concerned was transferred to my BlueFire app on the iPad.
However, there is no cover and, when I open the book in BlueFire Reader, there is no text on any page. What am I doing wrong and can I fix this problem?
Thank you.

Thank you.
I have iBooks installed but find with my poor eyesight that BlueFire Reader is easier to see.
Hence my desire to transfer the ebook from iTunes or iBooks to BlueFire.

AOL Instant Messaging File Transfer Problem

Hey guys, I recently got a Macbook, I changed from Windows and am just getting used to the layout and everything. I downloaded AIM, and have gone and tried to do File Transfers but a window pops up that prevents me from doing so. I went to Preferences and set all the correct Firewall and Fire Transfer options, yet still, a message comes up, saying
"The File Transfer with [friend] failed. A proxy connection error occurred.The connection may have timed-out while waiting for your buddy to connect to the AOL proxy server."
Please help as soon as possible!
I am deeply grateful.

First, don't bother with AIM software - Just use iChat. iChat is a Universal app and AIM is not.
It can use your AIM account. Had you done a file transfer with this person before?
Some servers don't play well with others, plus if the other user is on AOL software, I haven't been able to ever make that work.

File transfer problem iCloud iPhoto library

I want to transfer my iPhoto library into iCloud - the transfer is not happening. How do I either come back to be able to access the file or proceed with the file transfer to iCloud?

In the iPhoto Library previously, am I correct that anything put on the iCloud with the app only stays there for a specific and only limited time -- for 'sharing' and not storage?
It depends on the type of Photo Stream you use. The My Photo Stream is for syncing photos from mobile devices to your iPhoto Library and get imported if the library is set up accordingly. The remain in the My Photo Stream for 30 days.
Shared Photo Streams remain indefinitely and can be shared with anyone, either privately or as a public stream.
If I am correct, has this feature changed on the new update, Photos app? Will the pictures be stored there and not be removed
If you choose to use the iCloud Photo Library feature all of your photos will be copies to the iCloud Photo Library and be accessible from all devices signed in to the same Apple ID. A copy will be on your hard drive but you can elect to have an optimized copy instead of a full copy.
The iPhoto Photo Library will require purchasing enough space to house your library in the cloud. Unfortunately one can't selectively put just part of a Photo Library in the iCloud Photo Library. It's all or nothing. Now one could have multiple Photo Libraries on your Mac, with one just for the iCloud Photo Library. But at this time there's no convenient method of transferring photos from one Photo library to another like we can with iPhoto and iPhoto Library Manager. I understand the iPLM is being ported over to be used with Photos so that would make the method I suggested viable.
Personally, there are enough features lacking with Photos that I will be maintaining and using my iPhoto Library as well as using Photos for as along as iPhoto will work.

On FileZila click on the User Accounts Icon. The dialog box will show you defined users. By default only anonymous is created.
So you need to create a local ftp username and passowrd. Then assign it a home directory under shared folders. This will be the dfault location a remote clietn will look for files and where you would find the ISE upgrade package, for example.
See following screenshot....

N96 PC file transfer problem

Hi, I have just bought a brand new N96 few days ago. Everything was fine at first but when I tried to transfer files from PC to phone using latest version of Nokia PC Suite i ran into problems. File transfer just freezes in the middle of the transfer and a message says something like "connection to the phone lost" . This does not happen all the time, sometimes i transfer e.g 2 songs and on third it freezes. It happens also while installing *.sis files, and transfering images, videos, etc.
Message Edited by casualiis on 23-Nov-2008 05:26 PM

I hope you are using the usb cable!
for transferring a large number of files to the handset, it is a LOT quicker to put the n96 into 'mass storage' mode.
open the menu, open tools, open connectivity and select USB. change the usb mode to mass storage.
once you have reconnected the handset, it will appear as drives under my computer.
dont use PC suite when in mass storage mode, as it wont work correctly (and it will moan at you)
NOTE: you will now need to unplug the phone from the computer using 'safely remove hardware' that is next to the clock in windows, or you will end up damaging data.
also, if you still cant transfer files to the computer in this way, you might have to do a disk check.
mass storage mode is a lot quicker than pc suite mode!
Give it a go, and report back!

Incoming file transfer problem

Whenever I accept a file transfer from a friend, iChat freezes up and the rainbow wheel shows up. After a few seconds, my whole computer becomes agonizingly slow. Just switching between apps or waiting for the dock to appear can take around 5 seconds. I have to force quit iChat and wait for my computer to calm down a bit before opening iChat back up. After I re-open it, I'm able to accept the file transfer immediately without trouble. However if I accept a file transfer later on, the same problem occurs.
I've looked around, but haven't been able to find any information about this problem. Help is much appreciated.

In iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Server Settings what port is iChat logging on to the AIm servers with ?
If it is port 5190 log out of AIM and try port 443

Bluetooth - any hope for file transfer in near future???

Hi,
Presently iPhone 4 does not allow bluetooth file transfer to other mobile devices and even my PC.
I am not interested in illegal music/video transfer but genuinely transferring my data files between pc and other mobile devices and use it like a mobile storage device. I don't like the idea of mailing my file and then downloading it again when I have both devices in my hand! It's not helpful when other devices do not have internet connection or limited internet usage.
Please let me know if apple policies would allow it to make file transfer possible in near future (except music and video). Otherwise it would greatly reduce its usability for me.
*I hate its file storing and transferring features.*
*Another reason for hating iPhone is 'Flash'.*
Apart from this, its simply superb.

Why is something so simple its available on 10 year old Nokia 3310 bricks not available on an iPhone. Its ridiculous.
Because there is nowhere to put the files on an iPhone. There is no common file storage area on an iPhone that all apps can access. Each app sits in a sandbox for security purposes. Each app can only access its own files. You would have to have an app running where the files would go, and then the files would only be available to that app.
The old Nokia has a common file area and does not have the security the iPhone does, but then 10 years ago you probably did not need the security.

Large file transfer problems over client/server socket

Hi,
I wrote a simple chat problem in which I can send files from client to client. The problem is when I send large files over 101 MB the transfer freezes. I do not even get any error mesages in the console. The files I am sending are of any type (Ex mp3, movies, etc...). I am serializing the data into a "byteArray[packetSize]" and sending the file packet by packet until the whole file has been sent, and reconstructed on the other side. The process works perfectly for files smaller than 101MB, but for some reason freezes after that if the file is larger. I have read many forums and there aren't too many solutions out there. I made sure to use the .reset() method to reset my ObjectOutputStream each time I write to it.
Here's my file sending code:
byte[] byteArray = new byte[defaultPacketSize];
numPacketsRequired = Math.ceil(fileSize / defaultPacketSize);
try {
int i = 0;
reader = new FileInputStream(filePath);
while (reader.available() > 0) {
if (reader.available() < defaultPacketSize) {
byte[] lastPacket = new byte[reader.available()];
reader.read(lastPacket);
try {
if (socket == null || output == null) {
throw new SocketException("socket does not exist");
output.writeObject(lastPacket);
output.reset();
output.writeObject("DONE");
output.reset();
output.close();
socket.close();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception ***: " + e);
output.close();
socket.close();
else {
reader.read(byteArray);
try {
if (socket == null || output == null) {
throw new SocketException("socket does not exist");
output.writeObject(byteArray);
output.reset();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception ***: " + e);
output.close();
socket.close();
reader.close();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("COULD NOT READ PACKET");
Here's my file receiving code:
try {
// The message from the client
Object streamInput;
FileOutputStream writer;
byte[] packet;
while (true) {
streamInput = input.readObject();
if (streamInput instanceof byte[]) {
packet = (byte[]) streamInput;
try {
writer = new FileOutputStream(outputPath, true);
writer.write(packet); //Storing the bytes on file
writer.close();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e);
else if (streamInput.equals("DONE")) {
socket.close();
input.close();
break;
catch (Exception e) {
I'm looking for any way I can possibly send large files from client to client without having it freeze. Are there any better file transfer ways other than socket? I don't really want FTP. I think I want to keep it HTTP.
Any suggestions would be helpful.Thanks!
Evan

I've taken a better look a the code you posted, and
there is one problem with the receiving code. You
keep repeatedly opening and closing the
FileOutputStream. This is not going to be efficient
as the file will keep needing to be positioned to its
end.Yes sorry I did change that code so that it leaves the file open until completely done writing. Basically I have a progress bar that records how far along in the writing process the client is, and when the progress bar reaches 100%, meaning the file is complete, the file.close() method is invoked. Sorry about that.
I also ran some memory tests using the "Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory()", and "Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory()" methods. I put these methods inside the loop where I read in the file and send it to the client. here's the output:

When my Bluetooth disconnects during a file transfer where is all the data? why do i have to start over?

while transfering a large video file from my phone to my imac i lost the bluetooth connection so where is all the data that was already transfered and how do i delete it?
can i pick up where it left off? if not why is it that i have to start over?
also it would be nice if the imac warned me of the file transfer when i try to put the computer to sleep. i put it to sleep out of habit right in the middle of a 3 hour transfer.

The files listed are: cookies.sqlite cookies.sqlite.bak cookies.sqlite.bak-rebuild. I tried deleting the cookies.sqlite file but I think the cookies.sqlite.bak-rebuild rebuilds it. In any case when I reopened firefox It was the same I still have to sign in all the time.
