Dropbox and box sync check boxes gone?

Hello,
Earlier today I went through a deleting spree to try to get rid of all WD "drive stuff" on my computer becuase Mavericks apparently has problems with this stuff and my TimeMachine backup disk sponaneosly erased itself last night.
Now, the "folder check boxes" for my dropbox folders have dissapeared so I can't tell whether or not a folder has been succesfully synced? The same has happened to my "box sync" cloud folders... I reinstalled box sync and restarted but it didn't change anything.
anyone have any idea what I can do to get these checkboxes back ?? Otherwise it is very difficult to know for sure if my files are syncing to the cloud...
Thanks!!!

I believe the issue is that the Dropbox folder and subordinate folders (and files) have os/x extended attributes set to not allow others to read the file (which means spotlight indexing cannot read it to index it).
So here's what I see but I do not know how to set the correct xattr to allow spotlight to do the indexing:
ls -l
drwx------@ 24 <suppressed> staff 816 Dec 28 15:47 Dropbox
and the settings are:
xattr -l Dropbox
com.apple.FinderInfo:
00000000 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................|
00000010 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................|
00000020
Any wizards out there who know how to set the xattr to allow g+r and o+r in normal unix parlance.
Thanks,

Migrating library from PC to Mac (and copying sync check boxes)

Hi,
I recently bought an iMac to upgrade from a PC, and everything's going awesome - except my iTunes library.
I can get the music/files across to the iMac fine, however I have a library in excess of 60gb and use a 16gb iPhone, so was pretty reliant on the checkboxes to keep my synced library under 16gb.
I can't seem to find away to copy across the check box information, and would hate to have to manually uncheck all the songs I don't want to sync as I have almost 6,000 items in my library.
I've seen the iTunes back up option and thinking of trying that, but I'll need to buy a ton of DVDs to do so - so thought it was best to check if there are any other options, and also see if the back up contains the check box preferences.
Any help would be most appreciated - cheers!

If anyone's got the same problem, don't bother backing up the library to DVD - it doesn't sync the check boxes. I just found out, 22 DVDs later.
Was going to put all the synced songs in a playlist and export it (as suggested above), but you can't sort by checkbox - so if anyone has any more solutions, I'm all ears.
Cheers

Hi Guru:
I just got the question regarding the return item and free goods check box,my question is that if I check the free good check box,then the price of the matieral will be charged to zero,however,if I want to issue the return purchase order to the vendor,does I need to check the return box first and then issue the return order to the vendor? Then go to MIGO transaction to select the movement type 122 to return the goods,what's the whole precedure for returning the goods to the vendor,can anybody tell me,very appriated!

How to increase the size (Length and width) of check box

Hi All,
I have to increase the size of ( width and length) of check box, I have revised to check box topic in dev guide but didnt find any clue, i have also tried to use CCStyle class but that is also not working, I would appreciate if some can help me out on this. Thanks in advance , let me know if any clarification required.
Thanks
Pratap

Hi Pratap ,
I honestly don't know how to increase the size
But i am giving you an alternate solution : we can create two Images with check box type 1 ) with checked
2 ) with unchecked . ( you can create image of any size ) and get them displayed on OAF screen dynamically using switcher case .
Dynamically displaying image will give the illusion of check box being checked and unchecked .
keep this image moved to following media directory
eg : /oraapp/mfgtestcomn/java/oracle/apps/media .
Implement the switcher case , add the fire action to this Image Column , create a transient attribute and attach to this
column . Depending on the value returned by transient attribute display the image on the column .
Let me know if its not clear .

What does the PopUp "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs" really mean and if I check the Box, how do I undo this if this was the Wrong Thing To Do?

Constantly, while using Firefox (Beta v 11.0), and/or ESPECIALLY, when I have my eMail @ Mail.com open, I get this PopUp stating: "For security reasons, restarting mail.com Mail is possible only via the mail.com Mail Service. Please close this window and restart mail.com Mail" BUT Then there is a CHECKBOX: "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs."
I have no idea if Checking this Box is a Good Idea or if it will Screw-Up my mail.com Mail Service...
Anyone have an answer or explanation of the Use of this Little Check-Box?

You do not get any pop-up windows on that website if you tick that box.
That setting is stored in the cache and you should see pop-ups again if you reload the page and bypass the cache.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

HELP! - Playlist Gone and cannot sync :(

Last night I went to update my iPod and suddenly it started removing the songs from the Playlist I had to put on called "Selection for iPod" and then it said:
"Songs on the iPod "Name" cannot be synced because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist."
How do I remake/get these back?
Thank you

Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -My iPod for example (the dash will position it at the top of the playlists in Sources). You can make it a smart playlist that picks the songs for you or just a normal one and drag whatever content you want to have into the playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano. Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
Syncing Music to iPod
To make a random playlist go to File>New Smart Playlist.
Uncheck "Match the following rule"
Check "Limit to" put "3700" in the number box, choose "MB" from the first list box, choose "Random" from the next list box. Check "Live Updating"
When you want to change the selection in the smart playlist just delete everything in it and it will add a new selection. When you want to change the normal playlist just delete out what you don't want and drag in a new selection.

Sync iPhoto an Dropbox and Google drive

How do I sync iPhoto with Dropbox and Google Drive. I do not want to save my entire library into either, but thats the instructions I find. I just want to move an album in or out

I think I have solved this. I have Dropbox and Google Drive applications already installed. I go to Finder- open Applications- highlight with Dropbox or Google Drive then Double click . When I did this, the respective icon appeared in the the top bar (the Apple bar). A friend had "shared" a dropbox file of photos, which I had viewed but was unable to get into iPhoto. Once the icon appeared in the top bar, the shared Dropbox files went into my own Dropbox. Once the photo file appears in my GD or DB, it it available to be imported into iPhoto. This is done by opening iPhoto -- then open desired album (newly created & named)--- then click on File drop down in the top bar -- click on 'Import to Library", your Finder box opens up and you highlight the photos you want to copy to iPhoto. They appear in Last Import. Highlight all then drag them into desired folder.
Similarly, to Export from iPhoto, go to iPhoto - File Folder.... arrange & Edit your photos in the desired album. Then "select" all the photos in the album-- then click the File drop down, then Export. An Export window pops up- I select jpeg in the Kind window, in Quality I select maximum, in File Name I select Album Name & Number. then hit the Export button. Go to the prepared album (file) in GD, highlight the file you want the photos to go to, then hit the OK button
I wrote down each step, in order, so that I can make it happen every time- certainly not relying on memory or logic.

Emergency! Please Help. I have an iPhone 4 with all my pictures from the vacation on it and I plugged into my computer and it sync'ed to my ipod. all of my pictures are gone. How do I get my pictures back?

If all you did was sync your phone, and if you haven't synced again since this happened, you can restore your phone from the backup that was created at the beginning of the sync process (camera roll photos are included in the backup). If you have synced again since this happened this backup has already been overwritten and your photos are lost. Also, if you restored your phone from the backup of your iPod, rather than just synced, then your photos are lost too.
If you have an intact backup that contains these photos, do the following:
Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences. On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".
Connect your phone to your computer, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose your most recent backup to restore from.
When complete, you can go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

Firefox not loading correctly, getting black and white lines and boxes onother network comp. it loads ok

Firefox loaded on laptop along with another computer on home comutor - on mine when firefox is selected it loads with black lines and boxes along with all titles it will allow me to use the programme. When I load the same programme on second computer it loads correctly.
This has only occurred this week.
does the resolution setting affect this?

Again, my original post specifically asks what else I can check for in prefs.js. I don't know what to look for. I suspect that something has hung-around somewhere, but don't know what to look for in the prefs file to detect it. No malware or anti-virus software detects anything other than the prefs.js file itself. Safe mode fixes the problem. So obviously something is starting up with FF in normal mode which is causing this, but no clue where/what to look for at this point.

How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone? (the check marks are not bolded, does this mean they are not in my library but only on my phone?)

You uncheck the music in your iTunes library on your computer and along with sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, only checked songs in your iTunes library will be transferred to your iPhone or remain on your iPhone and the unchecked songs in your iTunes library that are currently on your iPhone will be removed when syncing.
Or make use of iTunes playlists and choose selected playlists, albums, artists under the Music selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the playlists below that you want transferred to your iPhone.

You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

I have not been able to sync my mail with iCloud on my MacBookPro (Lion OS). Everything else has been syncing fine for the past two months, but when I go to System Pref/iCloud/and try to check Mail, it asks me to choose an iCloud email address. When I put in my regular @me.com email, it says that address already exists (of course it does - it's mine!) and wants me to choose another one. But I want it to sync with my stuff. What can I do? I haven't been able to find help anywhere online... Thanks!

You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.
