Burning A File over Two CDs

I have a file I would like to burn to a data cd. It is 737 MB in a zipped format. I only have 700 MB capacity compact discs in my possession. Obviously the file will require more than one CD. I can't seem to find a way to span the file over two cds. I just keep getting the error message that I the file is too large to fit on the disc. It presents me with no further options. In the finder window for the cd-r where I have placed the file it reads 1.5 MB overflow in the status bar. Can someone tell me how to span the file over two cds?

As far as I know there's no way to span disks with Disk Utility or any other software that comes with your Mac. You have to buy Toast or some other 3rd party software.

You wrote "I only have 700 MB capacity compact discs in my possession." From that it's not clear to me whether or not you have a burner that will do DVDs. If you have it seems to me that it would be far simpler, not to mention a lot cheaper, to just get some blank DVDs to do the job.

Trying to burn a file over 700MB using Toast titanium 7

In windows if i burn a file over the standard size cd disc it will tell me i need to use 2 cd's
i want to do that on my G5 IMAC and my G4 Powerbook using toast titanium 7 but it just says File exceeds the size of disc - thats all
what can i do?

If you are burning a CD with Toast 7 and it is a Data Disk, in the menu that
pops out to to the left select Mac Only. Once you check that box it should
automatically burn to as many CDs as necessary. I've included a picture for
reference.

Burning single file across two DVD-Rs

My aunt has given me her digital video recorder. She wants me to make a DVD out of the video of my cousin's graduation. The thing is, she recorded the entire ceremony and then some (+2hours long!!). I copied the video onto my HD. I tried to just use Toast 6 to burn it but, of course, I don't have enough disk space on the 4.7GB DVD-Rs. Is there any way to have this file split across two DVD-Rs like when VHS movies sometimes needed two tapes for a single movie? I have iMovie HD and iDVD with some experience in both. I also am getting familiar with Final Cut Pro HD but it's a lot more complex than I would want to mess with right now. Thanks for any help you guys can provide!!

I don't remember if Toast 6 has the option (like the current version) of compressing video to fit on a single DVD. If not, you have a choice of doing a workaround to compress onto a single DVD, or splitting the file. To assess the options, it would be helpful to know more about the existing grad video -- is it on a miniDV camcorder? recorded on a hard drive? do you know the video format? how much longer than 2hrs is the video?

Burning .avi files

I have an iBook G4 with a that will burn CDs and view DVDs. I've been burning .avi files onto regular CDs, but have a few .avi files that are too big for such discs. Can I burn them on the blank DVDs I see for sale alongside the blank CDs? Or do the discs come formatted in such a way that I can't use them that way, even though I don't want to burn DVD files?

Or you can use the terminal split command. Here are the instructions I COPIED from some other guy on it's site. I've tried it, it works and it's not complicated.
Say you just used forty two to rip a DVD to a 1.1GB AVI file and want to split it up so you can fit it on two CD's. Just fire up the terminal and run split. Here's what it would look like if you wanted to make it fill the first 700mb CD completely and then have a 400mb file for the second CD. % split -b 690m bigsupertroopers.avi supertroopers
The -b option is for bytes and the 690m tells split to break the files into no larger than 690mb files.
This will create two files called supertroopersaa and supertroopersab. If you didn't add the supertroopers on the end of the command you'd have two files named xaa and xab.
To join the files back together, just use the cat command. To join the files in this example, type % cat supertroopersaa supertroopersab > supertroopers.avi
This joins the two files with the > output and creates a filename that follows the > . If you have more than two files or you just don't want to type each split file then you can use wild cards to make it easier. For example, you could just type % cat supertroopers?? > supertroopers.avi and it will join the files just like the above cat command.
You'll then have a file identical to the original bigsupertroopers.avi only now it's called supertroopers.avi or whatever you called it.

i don't believe you can, directly
i think the easiest way would be to export the podcast as two sections:

Synchronizing Files Over a LAN&mdash;What's Best?

We're a small outfit trying to figure out the best way to work locally, yet keep our files synchronized on a central server without having to invest in a CMS. Simply trying to remember to copy the file over to the appropriate folder on the network doesn't work. How best to go about it just using the Mac Finder or something cheap and easy?
Our setup is fairly simple and straightforward. There are two Mac workstations, with our files on a central Synology NAS drive, which is also used by other parts of our organization for their purposes. We both have Time Machine backups to our local machines using external hard drives attached to each of them respectively. (As an aside, I am wary of backing up to the NAS drive using Time Machine because I don't want to cause problems for the other departments in our organization who also rely on using space on the drive.) I like this setup because were I to do the obvious thing and work off the NAS drive, it slows me down, even over Gigabit Ethernet (Word is especially awful in this regard).
So the question is, how do my colleague and I keep files we work on (the same file) locally synced on the network?

You say you are not an audiophile but you own a pair of AKG Q701s--pretty respectable kit if you are listening to 256kbps iTunes and, frankly, a waste of cash. You will not get your money's worth out of such a nice set of cans without a headphone DAC / amp. so I think you raise a good question.
I have a DAC/headphone amp (Nuforce Icon HDP) hooked up to a Mac Mini used as a music server then out to my ancient Hitachi main amp via USB2. I ripped CDs into lossless format (limited by CD format of 44.1 khz / 16bit) and iTunes is aided by a third party piece of software called Bitperfect (in the app store $4.99). That may be an option for you though it sounds like $500 is too much for your purposes. If not...
I play the same lossless library from my iPad and iMac using a tiny but excellent portable DAC/amp called the Fiio E10 (only US$80). Check out this review. Again you use your USB to output from the Mac. I would avoid the headphone jack unless you are using the optical option built-in. If you are not an audiophile but want to improve your sound considerably for little cash then this, for me anyway, has been a good solution. Again, lossless is the way to go. I do not buy iTunes anymore--life is too short to listen to compressed tunes, esp. Jazz, solo piano or string quartets. One extra tip--avoid the digital volume control in iTunes. Go into MIDI settings and turn the volume up to 100% then use the DAC/ Amp to control the volume. Here is a helpful article from Benchmark.
Cheers.

EFS Encrypted Files over home workgroup network via WebDAV avoiding Active Directory fixing Access Denied errors

This is for information to help others
KEYWORDS:
- Sharing EFS encrypted files over a personal lan wlan wifi ap network
- Access denied on create new file / new fold on encrypted EFS network file share remote mapped folder
- transfer encryption keys / certificates
- set trusted delegation for user + computer for EFS encrypted files via
Kerberos
- Windows Active Directory vs network file share
- Setting up WinDAV server on Windows 7 Pro / Ultimate
It has been a long painful road to discover this information.
I hope sharing it helps you.
Using EFS on Windows 7 pro / ultimate is easy and works great. See
here and
here
So too is opening + editing encrypted files over a peer-to-peer Windows 7 network.
HOWEVER, creating a new file / new folder over a peer-to-peer Windows 7 network
won't work (unless you follow below steps).
Typically, it is only discovered as an issue when a home user wants to use synchronisation software between their home computers which happens to have a few folders encrypted using windows EFS. I had this issue trying to use GoodSync.
Typically an "Access Denied" error messages is thrown when a \\clientpc tries to create new folder / new file in an encrypted folder on a remote file share \\fileserver.
Why such a EFS drama when a network is involved?
Assume a home peer-to-peer network with 2pc: \\fileserver and \\clientpc
When a \\clientpc tries to create a new file or new folder on a \\fileserver (remote computer) it fails. In a terribly simplified explanation it is because the process on \\fileserver that is answering the network requests is a process working for a user on
another machine (\\clientpc) and that \\fileserver process doesn't have access to an encryption certificate (as it isn't a user). Active Directory gets around this by using kerberos so the process can impersonate a \\fileserver user and then use their certificate
(on behalf of the clienpc's data request).
This behaviour is confusing, as a \\clientpc can open or edit an existing efs encrypted file or folder, just can't create a new file or folder. The reason editing + opening an encrypted file over a network file share is possible is because the encrypted
file / folder already has an encryption certificate, so it is clear which certificate is required to open/edit the file. Creating a new file/folder requires a certificate to be assigned and a process doesn't have a profile or certificates assigned.
Solutions
There are two main approaches to solve this:
     1) SOLVE by setting up an Active Directory (efs files accessed through file shares)
          EFS operations occur on the computer storing the files.
          EFS files are decrypted then transmitted in plaintext to the client's computer
          This makes use of kerberos to impersonate a local user (and use their certificate for encrypt + decrypt)
     2) SOLVE by setting up WebDAV (efs files accessed through web folders)
           EFS operations occur on the client's local computer
           EFS files remain encrypted during transmission to the client's local computer where it is decrypted
           This avoids active directory domains, roaming or remote user profiles and having to be trusted for delegation.
           BUT it is a pain to set up, and most online WebDAV server setup sources are not for home peer-to-peer networks or contain details on how to setup WebDAV for EFS file provision
         READ BELOW as this does
Create new encrypted file / folder on a network file share - via Active Directory
It is easily possible to sort this out on a domain based (corporate) active directory network. It is well documented. See
here. However, the problem is on a normal Windows 7 install (ie home peer-to-peer) to set up the server as part of an active directory domain is complicated, it is time consuming it is bulky, adds burden to operation of \\fileserver computer
and adds network complexity, and is generally a pain for a home user. Don't. Use a WebDAV.
Although this info is NOT for setting up EFS on an active directory domain [server],
for those interested here is the gist:
Use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to configure delegation options for both users and computers. To trust a computer for delegation, open the computer’s Properties sheet and select Trusted for delegation. To allow a user
account to be delegated, open the user’s Properties sheet. On the Account tab, under Account Options, clear the The account is sensitive and cannot be delegated check box. Do not select The account is trusted for delegation. This property is not used with
EFS.
NB: decrypted data is transmitted over the network in plaintext so reduce risk by enabling IP Security to use Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)—which will encrypt transmitted data,
Create new encrypted file / folder on a network file share - via WebDAV
For home users it is possible to make it all work.
Even better, the functionality is built into windows (pro + ultimate) so you don't need any external software and it doesn't cost anything. However, there are a few hotfixes you have to apply to make it work (see below).

       a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Enable WebDAV"
4 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Authentication", then click "Open Feature"
       a) on the "Anonymous Authentication" and click "Disable"
       b) on the "Windows Authentication" and click "Enable"
      NB: Some Win 7 will not connect to a webDAV user using Basic Authentication.
        It can be by changing registry key:
           [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\WebClient\Parameters]
           BasicAuthLevel=2

       NB: Extended protection enhances the windows authentication with 2 security mechanisms to reduce "man in the middle" attacks
5 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Authorization Rules", then click "Open Feature"
       a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Add Allow Rule"
       b) set this to "all users". This will control who can view the "Default Site" through a web browser
       NB: It is possible to specify a group (eg Administrators is popular) or a user account. However, if not set to "all users" this will require the specified group/user account to be used for logged in with on the

       a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Edit Feature Settings"
       b) tick the box "Allow double escaping"
     *THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT* if your filenames or foldernames contain characters like "+" or "&"
     These folders will appears blank with no subdirectories, or these files will not be readable unless this is ticked
     This is safe btw. Unchecked (default) it filters out requests that might possibly be misinterpreted by buggy code (eg double decode or build url's via string-concat without proper encoding). But any bug would need to be in IIS basic
file serving and this has been rigorously tested by microsoft, so very unlikely. Its safe to "Allow double escaping".
8 in IIS, on the left under "connections" right click "Default Web Site", then click "Add Virtual Directory"
       a) set the Alias to something sensible eg "D_Drive", set the physical path
       b) it is essential you click "connect as" and set
this to a local user (on fileserver),
       if left as "pass through authentication" a client won't be able to create a new file or folder in an encrypted efs folder (on fileserver)
             NB: the user account selected here must have the required EFS certificates installed.
                        See
here and
here
        NB: Sharing the root of a drive as an active directory (eg D:\ as "D_Drive") often can't be opened on clientpcs.
      This is due to windows setting all drive roots as hidden "administrative shares". Grrr.
       The work around is on the \\fileserver create an NTFS symbollic link
          e.g. to share the entire contents of "D:\",
                on fileserver browse to site path (iis default this to c:\inetpub\wwwroot)
                in cmd in this folder create an NTFS symbolic link to "D:\"
                so in cmd type "cd c:\inetpub\wwwroot"
                then in cmd type "mklink /D D_Drive D:\"
        NB: WebDAV will open this using a \\fileserver local user account, so double check local NTFS permissions for the local account (clients will login using)
         NB: If clientpc can see files but gets error on opening them, on clientpc click START, type "Manage Network Passwords", delete any "windows credentials" for the fileserver being used, restart
clientpc
9 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click on "WebDAV Authoring Rules", then click "Open Feature"
       a) click "Add authoring rules". Control access to this folder by selecting "all users" or "specified groups" or "specified users", then control whether they can read/write/source
       b) if some exist review existing allow or deny.
           Take care to not only review the "allow access to" settings
           but also review "permissions" (read/write/source)
       NB: this can be set here for all added virtual directories, or can be set under each virtual directory
10 Open your firewall software and/or your router. Make an exception for port 80 and 443
       a) In Windows Firewall with Advanced Security click Inbound Rules, click New Rule
             choose Port, enter "80, 443" (no speech marks), follow through to completion. Repeat for outbound.
          NB: take care over your choice to untick "Public", this can cause issues if no gateway is specified on the network (ie computer-to-computer with no router). See "Other problems+fixes"
below, specifically "Cant find server due to network location"
       b) Repeat firewall exceptions on each client computer you expect to access the webDAV web folders on

11 To fully understand this read "WebDAV HOTFIX: RAW DATA TRANSFERS" below
      a) On Windows 7 you need only change one tiny registry value:
           - click START, type "regedit", open link
           -browse to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MRxDAV\Parameters]
           -on the EDIT menu click NEW, then click DWORD Value
           -Type "DisableEFSOnWebDav" to name it (no speech marks)
           -on the EDIT menu, click MODIFY, type 1, then click OK
           -You MUST now restart this computer for the registry change to take effect.
      b) On Windows Server 2008 / Vista / XP you'll FIRST need to
download Windows6.0-KB959439 here. Then do the above step.
         NB microsoft will ask for your email. They don't care about licence key legality, it is more to keep you updated if they modify that hotfix
12 To test on local machine (eg \\fileserver) and deliberately bypass the firewall.
      a) make sure WebClient Service is running
            (click START, type "services" and open, scroll down to WebClient and check its status)
      b) Open your internet software. Go to address "http://localhost:80" or "http://localhost:80"
            It should show the default "IIS7" image.
            If not, as firewall and port blocking are bypassed (using localhost) it must be a webDAV server setting. Check "Authorization Rules" are set to "Allow All Users"
      c) for one of the "virtual directories" you added (8), add its "alias" onto "http://localhost/"
                e.g. http://localhost/D_drive
            If nothing is listed, check "Directory Browsing" is enabled
13 To test on local machine or a networked client and deliberately try and access through the firewall or port opening of your router.
      a) make sure WebClient Service is running
            (click START, type "services" and open, scroll down to WebClient and check its status)
      b) open your internet software. Go to address "http://<computer>:80" or "http://<computer>:80".
              eg if your server's computer name is "fileserver" go to "http://fileserver:80"
              It should show the default "IIS7" image. If not, check firewall and port blocking.
              Any issue ie if (12) works but (13) doesn't, will indicate a possible firewall issue or router port blocking issue.
     c) for one of the "virtual directories" you added (8), add its "alias" onto "http://<computername>:80/"
               eg if alias is "C_driver" and your server's computer name is "fileserver" go to "http://fileserver:80/C_drive"
               A directory listing of files should appear.

         b) scroll right to the bottom and under "User Authentication" select "Automatic logon with current username and password"
         SUCH an easy fix. SUCH an annoying problem on a clientpc
   NB: this is only an issue if the file is opened through windows explorer. If opened through the "open" dialogue of the software itself, it doesn't happen. This is as a WebDAV mapped drive is consdered a "web folder" by windows
explorer.
TEST SETUP
17 On the client use the normal "map network drive"
            e.g. server= "http://fileserver:80/C_drive", tick reconnect at logon
            e.g. CMD: net use * "http://fileserver:80/C_drive"
         If it doens't work check "WebDAV Authoring Rules" and check NTFS permissions for these folders. Check that on the filserver the elected impersonation user that the client is logging in with (clientpc
"manage network passwords") has NTFS permissions.
18 Test that EFS is now working over the network
       a) On a clientpc, map network drive to http://fileserver/
       b) navigate to a folder you know on the \\flieserver is encrypted with EFS
       c) create a new folder, create a new file.
           IF it throws an error, check carefully you mapped to the WebDAV and not file share
              i.e. mapped to "http://fileserver" not "\\fileserver"
           Check that on clientpc the required efs certificate is installed. Then check carefully on clientpc what user account you specified during the map drive process. Then check on the \\fileserver this
account exists and has the required EFS certificate installed for use. If necessary, on clientpc click START, type "Manage Network Passwords" and delete the windows credentials currently in the vault.
       d) on clientpc (through a webDAV mapped folder) open an encrypted file, edit it, save it, close it. On the \\fileserver now check that file is readable and not gobble-de-goup
       e) on clientpc copy an encrypted efs file into a folder (a webDAV mapped folder) you know is not encrypted on \\fileserver. Now check on the \\fileserver computer that the file is readable and not gobble-de-goup (ie the
clientpc decrypted it then copied it).
        If this fails, it is likely one in IIS setting on fileserver one of the shared virtual directories is set to: "pass through authentication" when it should be set to "connect as"
        If this is not readable check step (11) and that you restarted the \\fileserver computer.
19 Test that clients don't get the VERY annoying prompt when opening an Office or PDF doc
      a) on clientpc in windows explorer browse to a mapped folder you know is encrypted and open an office file and then PDF.
            If a prompt for user+pass then check hotfix (16)
20 Consider setting up a recycling bin for this mapped drive, so files are sent to recycling bin not permanently deleted
      a) see the last comment at the very bottom of
this page:
Points to consider:
   - NB: WebDAV runs on \\fileserver under a local user account, so double check local NTFS permissions for that local account and adjust file permissions accordingly. If the local account doesn't have permission, the webDAV / web folder share won't
either.
- CONSIDER: IP Security (IPSec) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to protect files during transport.
MORE INFO: HOTFIX: RAW DATA TRANSFERS
More info on step (11) above.
Because files remain encrypted during the file transfer and are decrypted by EFS locally, both uploads to and downloads from Web folders are raw data transfers. This is an advantage as if data is intercepted it is useless. This is a massive disadvantage as
it can cause unexpected results. IT MUST BE FIXED or you could be in deep deep water!
Consider using \\clientpc to access a webfolder on \\fileserver and copying an encrypted EFS file (over the network) to a web folder on \\fileserver that is not encrypted.
Doing this locally would automatically decrypt the file first then copy the decrypted file to the non-encrypted folder.
Doing this over the network to a web folder will copy the raw data, ie skip the decryption stage and result in the encrypted EFS file being raw copied to the non-encrypted folder. When viewed locally this file will not be recognised as encrypted (no encryption
file flag, not green in windows explorer) but it will be un-readable as its contents are still encrypted. It is now not possible to locally read this file. It can only be viewed on the \\clientpc
There is a fix:
      It is implimented above, see (11) above
      Microsoft's support page on this is excellent and short. Read "problem description" of "this microsoft webpage"
Other problems + fixes
PROBLEM: Can't find server due to network location.
     This one took me a long time to track down to "network location".
     Win 7 uses network locations "Home" / "Work" / "Public".
     If no gateway is specified in the IP address, the network is set to '"unidentified" and so receives "Public" settings.
     This is a disaster for remote file share access as typically "network discovery" and "file sharing" are disabled under "Public"
     FIX = either set IP address manually and specify a gateway
     FIX = or force "unidentified" network locations to assume "home" or "work" settings -
read here or
here
     FIX = or change the "Public" "advanced network settings" to turn on "network discovery" and "file sharing" and "Password Protected Sharing". This is safe as it will require a windows

I really hope this helps people. I hope the keywords + long title give it the best chance of being picked up in web searches.

What probably happens is that processes are using those mounts. And that those processes are not killed before the mounts are unmounted. Is there anything that uses those mounts?

Can I share files between two different networks at same location?

Until TWC can offer DOCSIS 3.0 later this year or next...
- In my home I have a closet where all my audio, video and network come together.
- I have two cable modems from Time Warner
- Modem A goes to a WRT320N; 192.168.0.1
-- This router connects all my "heavy" downloads, ie. DirecTV receivers, Netflix, home server w/videos, gaming, etc.
- Modem B goes to a E2000; 192.168.1.1
-- This router connects my everyday use computers so they don't suffer poor speeds from all the traffic on Modem A
My question is, how or can I somehow share files between these two routers without the need for hitting the modems? Obviously I can just push files over the Internet but I am doing it at a much slower speed due to upload restrictions on the modem.
Thank you for any help on this!

The easiest way would be to assign LAN IP 192.168.1.2 to the WRT320N and disable the DHCP server. Then assign static IP addresses in 192.168.1.* to all devices connected to the WRT at the moment, e.g. 192.168.1.10, 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.1.2, DNS 192.168.1.2 (or DNS servers of your ISP).
Now you can connect a LAN port of the WRT to a LAN port of the E2000. All DHCP clients get the IP address from the E2000 which will assign the E2000 as gateway, i.e. they use the E2000 for internet. All other devices will have static IP addresses and use the WRT as gateway.

After install of Mavericks, it looks like my system kernal panics and just sits there. I tried waiting over two nights. Tried reinstalling twice, booting r/s. Recovery partition now has Mavericks as OS. Im running a iMac i3 27 inch circa 2011. Any ideas?

After install of Mavericks, it looks like my system kernal panics and just sits there. I tried waiting over two nights. Tried reinstalling twice, booting ro the repair partition and repairs permissions/drive/verify , with no problems. Tried reseting PVRAM(or whateverit called). Recovery partition now has Mavericks as OS. Im running a iMac i3 27 inch circa 2011. Any ideas? Can still bootcamp into windows.
Thank you

The file seems to create the CD/DVD/Image and USB just fine. So I used this only to create a CD image which I then wrote on a blank CD which seems to work fine. Also, I played around a bit and had some partial success in booting the partition. I've updated my original opening post with the new findings.
Whew!! what a waste of time! Never want to do all of this again .

Can't open a pdf document over two or more junction points

Hello,
if i open a pdf document that's stored in a directory and this directiry is accessable over two or mor junction points, it will be fail. The message say something abount access denied, but the security is set to full access. In other application (e.g. notepad.exe) i can access this document. Then i tested it with one junction point and it works.
So here is a szenario to test:
1) Put a pdf document at C:\Folder1\PDF-Document.pdf
2) I can access C:\Folder1\PDF-Document.pdf with Acrobat Reader
3) Create a Junction Point from C:\Folder2 to C:\Folder1
4) I can access C:\Folder2\PDF-Document.pdf with Acrobat Reader
5) Create a Junction Point from C:\Folder3 to C:\Folder2
6) I can't access C:\Folder3\PDF-Document.pdf with Acrobat Reader !!!
I can normaly access the file at C:\Folder3\PDF-Document.pdf but not with Acrobat Reader! In Notepad i can open the pdf document.
I tested the lasted version 11.0.1 on Windows Server 2008 R2 (Service Pack 1) with all normally available patches.
What's wrong? The original structure with the junction points are greater than the example above. But i've reduced it to this simple example.
Can anyone help?
Thanks und Greetings

It's possible it's a bug, or it may be a limitation in the software if it's a specialized kind of PDF that Reader for iOS doesn't support.
In any case, posting a link to the file would provide the engineers with some information to help fix the problem.
Keep in mind that the software for mobile devices has been in development a much shorter time than software for computers (Reader for Windows or Macintosh).

How can I save Illustrator CC files onto my external hard drive - Free Agent Go Flex Drive? Nothing works, can't even drag files over. Is the drive not compatible?

Nothing seems to work, not even dragging files over. Is the drive not compatible? Am working on a new Mac Book, its not a problem on my older IMAC?

There are two scenarios in which GoFlex drives are supported for use with a Mac. When you connect a GoFlex drive to a Mac, you will be presented with a utility to configure the drive for use. First, if you want to use your GoFlex drive solely with a Mac, the utility will reformat the drive into the HFS+ format, which allows you to use the drive with Time Machine or the included Memeo Premium backup software for Mac. If you would like to be able to "shuttle" data back and forth between a Mac and a PC, a special driver needs to be installed onto the Mac that allows it to access a Windows-formatted drive (i.e. NTFS). Time Machine will not work in this case, nor will Memeo Premium software for Mac. However, if you want your GoFlex solution to also work with TimeMachine, the drive will need to be reformatted to HFS+ journaled.

Unable to share files over the local network, OS X Lion

About two weeks ago, my coworker and I realized that we were no longer able to share files over the local network. We have not made any changes to our preference settings. We are able to access FileMaker Pro databases files located on another computer in our office via the network, but we are unable to access any other files by trying to login to the computer remotely. We also have internet access. I am able to login to each of our work computers form home, but not from the office. I'm am not sure what has changed, but it is important that we have the ability to share files at work. Can you give me directions on how to fix our problem. Thanks!

I had this problem when I first setup my Mac. One thing I know is that File Sharing in System Preferences doesn't necessarily need to be on, because iTunes does all of the networking itself.
I know that you've checked and checked again on the firewall, but what I did was turn the firewall on. In the list of ALLOW, there should be a line that is labeled iTunes Music Sharing. Check it. It was the magic link, and all of my iTunes libraries on the three computers in the house (two Windows, one my Mac) could "see" each other.
Turning on the firewall might seem strange, but it worked for me.
I hope this helps.

Issues with iCloud synchronisation and contacts over two or more devices. iTouch and iPad2 sync with different results from iMac. Thoughts?

Has any one experienced issues with iCloud synchronisation and contacts over two or more devices? The primary machine is an iMac running Lion. Address Book was created from vcf file (backup of address book prior to moving to iCloud). iTouch replicates Contacts just fine and matches the Address Book on the iMac. The iPad 2 does not showing only 123 contacts where there should be 200. I have turned off iCloud on both devices thus erasing the iCloud content of both devices and staring from scratch with both devices with identical results. Even turned off iCloud on the iMac and erased the Address Book and rebuilt with the same results. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I am going nuts.....

To follow-up with this issue:
I ended up performing a security wipe on my device. The security wipe finished, and I was about to reconnect with Exchange when I decided to visit our host's web site to see if they had any articles covering the issues I was experiencing. While they didn't have anything specific, I did find a step-by-step guide to connecting a BB10 device to Exchange... and right there at the end, it said "Do NOT enable memo sync."
I contacted support, and the rep told me that OS 10 has an issue with memo sync and it can cause all sorts of unpredictable behavior. Now, whether or not this is accurate I can say this: So far, the device is not disconnecting and reconnecting like it was before. Problem is, is this a result of not enabling memo sync, or is this a result of the security wipe?
I may have overlooked it, but I don't recall reading anything about that anywhere else. I'm tempted to try re-enabling the memo sync to see if everything blows up again. At least that way I can see for myself if the memo sync is a real issue. Of course, perhaps it's an issue with SherWeb (our host) specifically. Hm...
Anyway, for those that were interested, and for those that may come along in the future with a similar situation, the strange behavior that I first reported is no longer happening. I just don't know if it was a result of a security wipe or a result of not enabling memo sync with Exchange.

How can I split a QuickTime file in two?

8/21/2006. How can I split a QuickTime file in two? I saved a two hour videotape converted by PYRO A/V LINK to iBook G4 combo into a file of 24.5 Gb, and I saved to QuickTime into 536 mgs. Of course, it took half a day. When I went to copy it as video (536 mgs) onto a CD of 700 mg capacity, Toast 7 said it required 1100 mgs and couldn't do it. I have QuickTime Pro, got just recently. I would be very happy to learn how to split it, so to copy each of the split pieces onto 2 CD's, for my own purposes. Many, many thanks. Chuck Yopst.

Kirk, Thanks for your post Monday 8/21. Interesting how things worked out. I split the OuickTime file--of my retired uncle Church of the Brethren pastor's 50th wedding anniversary, and came up with two folders. Each contained four more folders, and inside folder Mvseg was file Avseq.dat which contained the video material and, when double clicked, started playing that half of the story on Windows 98SE. It just so happens that my uncle's PC operating system is a Windows 98SE. All this from QuickTime 7.0 which Windows 98SE would play the audio but not the video. Then a week later, yesterday in fact, in looking through iDVD help I found your solution, which heretofore I had no idea of. I had to go into System Preferences--Hardware--CDs & DVDs, and set these for "Open with 'Ask what you want to do'." The factory settings were to "open these when inserted" without that "Ask"ing. So then I was able and did follow your solution and it worked, but as a single QuickTime file, playable on Windows XP and Windows 2000 and Macintosh but not Windows 98SE. So everything worked out well. And thank you again. Chuck Y

DVD burning - all files do not copy

I have been having a burning problem with the system burning DVDs.
When I burn a disc not all the files copy. Sometimes one whole folder of many does not get copied; sometimes just the materials within a specific folder does not get burned. No error message is given and the DVD verifies 100%. I have tried burning at different speeds and it does not have any effect. I use to have no problems and can not think of what the problem is... HELP!
Thanks!

Some files did burn that were over 32 characters, but some files that were shorter did not. Should I not have file names over 32 characters?
