Cannot copy MOV files

I took video on my iphone 4 and want to transfer them to an ipad, first generation. During sync got the following message "some of the videos in itunes library could not be copied to the ipad because they cannot be played on this ipad"...any idea why and how I can fix it?

Here are the formats the first generation iPad supports. MOV files are included. But note the formats are limited, as the first generation iPad does not have a camera.

Cannot copy .mov & .mpeg files to iPod 80

Hello
I have just bought an iPod Video 80 gb.
I have some .mov & .mpeg files on my iTunes library. But when I try to copy those files to my iPod, a message appears:
"filename" was not copied to the ipod "My iPod" because it cannot be played on this iPod.
So I cannot copy those files to iPod. But I can copy .mp4 videos to iPod without any problem.
Why is this happening? How can I copy .mov & .mpeg files to my iPod?
I am using the latest iTunes, 7.0.2.16. Also my iPod has the latest software, 1.2.1.
Thanks

I have a new Apple TV which is working fine except that I cannot access .mov files which are in my iTunes Library. How can I get to these? I can run them on my computer and select Apple TV on the screen, but the Apple TV goes to a black screen

Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

How do I copy/move files?

What class do I use to copy/move files? I looked in java.io.file but I didn't see anything appropriate.

Thanks for the point about NT and AIX. The exact reason I'm looking at this is to develop a stored procedure in an Oracle DB which will assist with backup operations on both NT and AIX. Thus whatever I do needs to work both places. We already have OS specific scripts that I'd like to get rid of . . .

Error message when copying .mov files

Hello,
I'm trying to copy .mov files to back up from my desktop and from an external hardrive (250gb) to a new external hardrive (350gb) but each time I am getting the an error message saying the operation can not be completed due to unexpected error (error code 0). The files i am trying to copy are between 7gb and 20gb. Does anyone what what the error message means or how I can get around it please?!
Thanks!

If you want to use large files you have to reformat it. It will erase any data that is on the drive, If the drive will be used only with OSX, format it as Mac Extended (HFS+) Journaled with the GUID partition table.
Start Disk Utility (Utilities Folder). Select the drive in the left column (be sure to select the drive, all the way at the left, not the volume indented below it). Select the "Partition" tab. Set "Volume Scheme" to "1 Partition". Click the "Options" button. Select "GUID Partition Table". Click the "OK" button. Enter the volume name and click the "Apply" button.

I cannot play .mov files (from iPhone) in Premiere Elements 10.

I cannot play .mov files (from iPhone) in Premiere Elements 10. Is there a solution?
It used to work fine. I wonder if the problem has something to do with the recent iPhone update. Is there any Premiere update I can download?

Well, if it used to work... and then you updated your iphone and now it does not work... that seems to ME like the iphone update changed something in the files
But, exactly what is inside your mov files?

Bummer! I read something about getting this error due to insufficient permissions, but I attempted to install as local admin and didn't work either. So I just uninstalled Adobe reader from the servers I was having this issue with, at least until a solution is available (?). I'm not happy, it is not convenient if I have to use another machine to view PDFs, but I'd rather be inconvenienced than have unpatched servers. Thanks for responding...let's hope Adobe responds...

Cannot copy mp3 files to ipod after 4.3.1 OS update

I updated my iPod Touch to 4.3.1. Now when I open iTunes and try to copy mp3 files to my iPod the cursor turns into a circle with a line across it indicating I cannot copy the files. I manually sync as I select a few items from my PC library. This method has worked fine for years. Only failed after 4.3.1 update. Any ideas? I have rebooted both PC and iPod several times. No joy.

Hey PlanB77,
Here's why I know the problem is Apple and NOT a problem with the aftermarket cables.
I have a total of (6) aftermarket cables. These cables support several Apple devices (iPod Touch, iPod Classic, iPod Nano, and iPad)in different locations. All (6) of these aftermarket cables have worked just fine for many months. After the update to 4.3.1 on my iPod Touch, NONE of these cables work on my iPod Touch, but the original Apple iPod cable works fine. These aftermarket cables still work fine on my other Apple products that have not been updated.
It is beyond comprehension that all (6) aftermarket cables have failed only on my iPod Touch while working fine on all my other Apple devices. Hence my comment, Apple has become truly pathetic. They now demand your dollars for overpriced cables. As this change to the OS is without a public announcement and after I have purchased cables from other vendors I stand by my conclusion.
Oh, and Apple wants to charge for support to tell you why their OS 4.3.1 upgrade broke your product. That adds insult to injury.

Is there a way to set the ACLs on a folder so that users cannot copy a file?

Hello,
Is there a way to set the ACLs on a folder so that users cannot copy a file?
I have a customer that wants to put an employee handbook into a FORMS FOLDER. But he doesn't want users to be able to copy the file into other folders or onto removable media.
Admittedly, I have never run into this before and my testing hasn't yielded an answer...
Any Ideas?
Thanks again,
Robert

Use third party software for security management (http://www.wave.com/ ,

Build Issues - cannot copy phonegap files

All was working fine last week. I haven't personally modified any files or locations. I contacted Adobe support, but they said it was a plugin issue so no help from them. I also noticed that Adobe hasn't answered to this same problem posted before in the forums. What's up with that?

I'm running Dreamweaver 11.5 Build 5344 in Windows XP.

I searched high and low on the internet for weeks trying to find a
solution, I finally decided I would pay Adobe for an answer... So I
called their paid support line. I was told that it would cost $40,
but I had spent so much time that $40 seemed OK. After talking to
someone that didn't know much, but was able to replicate the error,
he directed me to Level 2 support. He never ask for a credit card or
any payment.
When I called the level 2 support, it said that it would cost
$240.... That was quite steep, but since I had wasted much more than
that on non productivity, I proceeded.
I got ahold of someone (they must of been in India), a little bit
hard to understand. She wanted to link to my desktop to watch what
was happening. After she looked at a couple of things, she
immediately when to this solution, and it worked.. She also did not
ask for payment.
I don't know how they can say it is someone elses problem, as they
own phonegap, and jquery in part of dreamweaver, and all I was doing
is creating a new jquery / phonegap application from their included templates.
I am just glad after days of struggling, we have a solution.

Delete partially copied movie file from iPhone. Shows grayed out in Videos on the iPhone but it doesn't show up in iTunes.

Hello.
I have synced my iPhone 4S with iTunes and I got an error while copying one movie. Now this movie shows up grayed out in videos on the iPhone but NOT in iTunes. Hence, I cannot delete this partially copied movie from my iPhone. And since it is grayed out, the right-to-left swipe does not work. I have resynced with "no movies" option so that every movie would be deleted and indeed every movie was deleted except for the problematic one. I rebooted the iPhone several times in case it was a glitch. No success. I even tried tools like iExplorer and DiskAid but I cannot find this **** file. Is there any way to delete this partially copied file from the iPhone without having to restore it?
Regards,
HawkeyeQ

Hi adtsalmon,
You can only watch the movie on the device you rented it on. Here's a snippet from the Apple Support site (italics mine):
If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
Here's the link to the Movie Rentals FAQs site FYI:

Hope this helps!

Copy/Move Files preserving all metadata

Hi,
Silly question, but how do I copy or move files on an OES11 sp1 NSS volume (source and destination are on the same server) in such a way that all the metadata and data structure is preserved? In particular I want to preserve ownership, trustee's, timestamps, and namespaces. Thus I cannot use for example a Windows client since it does not understand the Mac namespace among other things. If the data were on NetWare NSS volumes (as both source and destination) then I would use SCMT. But of course SCMT does not work with OES11. I tried using the Miggui tool, but it does not work either - it does not support the source and destination being on the same server.
My use case is that I want to move a user's homedirectory to a new volume (on either the same or a different server) and then create a junction from the original location to the new thus eliminating the two hassles of updating the user object homedirectory attribute in eDir and/or revising the shortcut/alias on their desktop (typically an OSX client).
Thanks,
Ron

All accounts I am testing with are LUMified and 'id' on the server is copacetic too, so that is not it. I thought that maybe it was some "bad info" in one of the miggui xml project files so I blew them all away (/var/opt/novell/migration/). Tried with the bad account - and it still failed. So I looked at the log file and found this bug reported there:
2013-09-27 12:28:37,718 ERROR - FILESYSTEM:volmount.rb:Command to mount source: ruby /opt/novell/migration/sbin/volmount.rb -s 0.1.2.3 -a "cn=badaccount,ou=x,o=y" -c Not Applicable -f "/var/opt/novell/migration/NewProj0/fs/mnt/source" -m -t OES20

Clearly the attempt to mount the volumes as sources is causing a segmentation fault - says so right there! But it has no problem with the exact same volumes as targets. Likely this is because the target is the local server and nothing special needs to be done to mount the target file systems since they are arleady mounted. But the source could be anything so it is going to try to identify and mount the source filesystems via that volmount.rb script.
I decided to try the offending command from the command-line to see if I could get better feedback on the error and to quickly/easily try different parameters. Right away I could see that the miggui was either not passing the password on the command-line or it was but was hiding it in the log file. Also it passes an incorrect type with the '-t OES20' parameter. It should be '-t OES2'. However looking at the volmount.rb script it turns out that it only tests for 'NW' / not 'NW'. Thus if you pass it '-t popo' it will still work just fine!
The long story made short is that I have no idea what is causing this bug. At one point I thought that it was an error in handling certain characters in the password, such as &. But that turned out to be a red herring. After a lot of password testing, eDir object rights futzing and filesystem trustee assignment poking I've come up with... "it is working now - no idea what was wrong earlier". Sigh I hate these kind of problems.
Cheers,
Ron

I cannot copy large files from my hard drive

My MacBook Pro 15 is on OS X 10.8.5 (12F37) and I reformatted my external hard drive to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) but cannot copy my virtual machine 53GB file from my hard drive to the external drive.

If it was a partition it would not be a VM file.
This is what you said:
if you are trying to copy a virtual windows machine
I see no mention of a Windows partition here.
As I said before you should test your suggestions to ensure that they are correct, and you should do that prior to suggesting them, and It would help if you understood the difference between a file and a partition.

Cannot delete movie file from iTunes

After converting movie file via Quicktime and adding it to the iTunes library, I am not able to remove it anymore. If you try to delete it, it crashes iTunes and after that all desktop icons are frozen. The movie does not play in iTunes, you cannot edit its info without crashing iTunes either. Movie plays in preview pane in Finder....
Is there any other way to remove the file from iTunes?

Try deleting the file without iTunes running.
When you next open iTunes it should then be marked as a missing file and you should be able to delete the entry from iTunes.
Hope this works

Colin R.
