File permissions when copied from server

When a user connects to a share and copies items to their own local desktop, should the permissions on the files stick with them once copied, or should the file permissions be inherited from the location they were copied to?
Server: OS X Server 10.5.x
Client: OS X 10.5.x

Try this you say you are not using ACL's
Good but wait for it
Enable ACL to the disk, Do not set ACL permissions
See what happens

Different photo file sizes when copied back from external HD

I backed up some photos to an external HD (80GB, same size as in my iMac at the time), with Mac OS Standard format, under Tiger. The internal HD crashed, taking much unbacked-up data with it to the digital beyond.
Now with my new Leopard iMac (and wisdom acquired by experience), I have noticed a different file size on the different drives after copying the photos back.
Other posts have pointed out differences in memory allocation / block size as the culprits, however, can that make the large difference seen in my case?
Example 1 is a Tiff file of 8.2 MB on the external HD, which shrinks to 6,8 MB when copied to the 500 GB iMac drive (taken from the Get Info window)
Example 2 is a JPEG which shrinks from 1.2 MB to 552 KB when copied over.
Examples 1 & 2 also shrank to 6.8 MB and 576 KB respectively when copied from the 80GB external drive to another, 320GB external FAT32 drive.
So my question is: Am I somehow losing something with the shrinking files? Does memory allocation/block size difference make that big a difference?
Thanks for your help.

I think I ought to mention that I also have a new laptop and have experienced file sharing permission issues with some applications. Might this be part of the problem? (Although everything seems to be properly owned!)

Does OS X corrupt files when copying from SD card to desktop?

Using finder to copy a folder and its files from SD card to mac desktop seems to cause *some* files to be corrupted, specifically a handful of MP4 files from a FAT32 SD card which was used in a digital camera. Using a binary/hex comparison tool reveals that some segments of the files contents were modified when copied from the SD card.
This error occurs when copying multiple files using Finder windows. However, when copying the same files one at a time, the corruption does not occur. This appears to be an OS level bug. In reviewing past content, I found that dozens of MP4 files have been corrupted in the past 4 months by merely copying the files from the SD card to mac desktop using Finder copy/paste.
I am using OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3

Well, like I said, the byte size in fact did *not* change. So I'm not even concerned about that. What *did* change is the content of those bytes and it doesn't matter what operating system you are using, the content of those bytes is *not* supposed to change.
Also, like I said before, if I copy the individual file (MP4) insead of the entire folder, and then do the binary/hex comparison, the byte data is identical. i.e.
a) copying one file at a time produces an *identical* file on the HD, i.e. the byte count AND the byte content are precisely the same.
b) copying a folder with multiple files produces a *different* file on the HD, i.e. the byte count is the same BUT the byte content differs from the original file.

Error message when copying from Acrobat Reader

Error message when copying from Acrobat Reader - any file, any time (Win 7, Adobe many versions until recent).
Copy works, but causes a needless and useless error message that has to be clicked away every time.
This problem is published on the web for a million times without a working solution. And even in the Adobe forum no qualified answer (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/441370)
When can I expect a solution?

Mac Mail won't remove copy from server

My mail remains in the ISP's Inbox despite the proper setting in my Mac Mail program to remove copy from server immediately after downloading. Even after I close my mail program, the old mail will not be deleted. I must go to my Inbox via the Net and delete the mail with a global tag/delete.
This problem began 5 to 7 months ago. Before that the auto deletion worked fine, and it worked fine in older versions of OS X. Is this an ISP compatibility? A bug in the current Mac Mail release? A bug in Tiger?
I asked my ISP and his first reply said this is one of many bugs in Mac Mail and I should switch to Thunderbird. I'll look at that but I prefer to use Apple software.
After 4 years I know how seldom Apple debugs Mail and Safari. Does anyone know if an update of Mail is on Apple's schedule?
iMac and others Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Try changing the setting to After one day or When moved
from Inbox (and leave it at that), to see whether it’s just the Right > away setting that doesn’t work or that Mail fails to remove messages > from that server no matter what the settings.
I'll do that.
BTW, have you actually tried using another mail
client such as Thunderbird
to check whether the same happens there as well?
My ISP, who hosts a university and has a higher percentage of Mac users than most, recommended Thunderbird so I presume it does well here at Ntelos.net
Once upon a time, for two decades as the active proprietor of the Freeware Hall of Fame, ( www.freewarehof.org ) my 12-hour-a-day hobby was installing and testing applications and utilities. I guess I'm tired, because it no longer sounds like fun.

P55GD80 slowdown when copying from DVD SATA drive.

I had an issue with my system becoming unresponsive after copying files from a DVD drive to my secondary data drive. I have the specs below:
P55GD80 (Bios 1.5)
Core i7-860
Intel X-25M 80GB SSD (Boot Drive)
Seagate 7200.10 320GB (Data Drive)
DVD-ROM
DVD-RW
4 GB Gskill memory
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
My initial setup had all of the drives on the Intel SATA 1-6 connections. I first noticed an issue when copying files from either of the DVD drives to my secondary data drive. My whole system would slow to a crawl. After many different combinations, I found the best performance by moving my secondary data drive to the SATA 7/8 Jmicron controller. It does not make sense why I needed to do this. Any ideas? I did not notice an issue when copying from the SSD to the data drive, but then again, I rarely do that.
Do I need to enable AHCI for the Intel controller? If so, how do I do that. When I went into the BIOS there only seemed to be an option for this for the Jmicron controller. When I enabled this, the system suddenly did not see any other drive besides the one connected to the Sata 7/8.
Also, why when I hook up the two DVD drives to SATA 7/8 (JMicron) will the BIOS see both drives, but Windows 7 sees only 1? Does JMicron only operate in RAID?

Thanks guys, I figured it out. I had two problems really. When I went to turn on AHCI the first time, I already had my secondary data drive connected to the SATA 7/8 port, which messed everything up and made me think I wasn't turning AHCI on for the right controller. Turns out I was, but I had to move all of my drives back to the Intel SATA 1 through 6 ports. Once I did that, everything was detected properly, but then my second problem was needing that registry key change which I had no idea was necessary. I would like to think I am pretty technical, but I am obviously a noob to system building since I had never heard of AHCI.

Why do colors slightly change when copying from Illustrator to Photoshop?

I want to copy a object from Illustrator and paste it into a Photoshop document with the same color mode and profile.
When I use the Eyedropper Tool on the pasted object in Photoshop the color seems to be slightly off.
Both the Illustrator and the Photoshop document have their Color Mode set to RGB
Both Applications are using synchronized color settings.
This also happens when the object is dragged or Placed. It does not happen when copying from Photoshop to Illustrator.
Could there be a problem with my color management settings? What actually happens to the color information, when it is copied from one application to another?
Thanks for any help.

Why the heck are people still using these nonsensical hexadecimal HTML numbers?
Since some decades we got used to describe RGB values by decimal numbers 0...255.
Both your value sets are practically the same, but how they were converted from one
to the other, that requires an investigation, how Adobe workflows are distributed
between California and Bangalore.

How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

iDVD does not care about file sizes, as it compresses the file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
It only cares about length i.e. max 2 hours including titles etc.
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

SRM validate the Catalog Item when copying from old templates

Do SRM validate the Catalog Item when copying from old templates and previous shopping carts? Is this standard functionality?
Thanks,
Rajan

Continuation to my previous post:
My findings based on the analysis I did. Might help people who are looking for similar info.
As Jason mentioned, the Subroutine name is CATALOG_CONTENT_VALIDATE_GET
This is under package BBP_SC --> Function Group: BBP_SC_APP
After making a webservice call to get catalog details, the mapping is done as below.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    READ TABLE lt_enriched_item INDEX 1.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      ls_item_validate-price      = lt_enriched_item-price.
      ls_item_validate-currency   = lt_enriched_item-currency.
      ls_item_validate-price_unit = lt_enriched_item-price_unit.
      ls_item_validate-deliv_date = lt_enriched_item-deliv_date.
      ls_item_validate-leadtime   = lt_enriched_item-leadtime.
      ls_item_validate-unit       = lt_enriched_item-unit.
    ELSE.
      lv_validate_item_exception = gc_yes.
    ENDIF.
ELSE.
    lv_validate_item_exception = gc_yes.
ENDIF.
If you go one level deeper into subroutine PERFORM sc_itm_copy_to_basket, you can see that following validations are performed.
If EITHER price, currency or price unit changes, we get the message u201C&: Price changed due to catalog validationu201D
If UOM changes, we get the message u201C&: Unit of measure changed in catalog; item not transferredu201D
When Delivery date or lead time changes, no message is raised but the new values are copied.
In a nut shell, the fields that are considered for validation are Price, Currency, Price Unit, UOM, Delivery date, Lead Time.
Thanks,
Seyed

File access privilege problem when copying from 9.2.2 to 10.5.6

Hello,
I have two Macs (one running MacOS 9.2.2, the other running 10.5.6) connected with an ethernet crossover cable. FileSharing over TCP/IP is enabled on both machines. When copying files from the 9.2.2 machine to the OS X one (initiated from the OS X side), after some files have been copied, I get an (OS X) error message to the effect of "insufficient file privileges for file "AppleShare PDS"", followed by a message "insufficient privileges for "Macintosh HD"" ("Macintosh HD" is the volume's name the data is copied from), after which copying terminates.
The FileSharing connection to the 9.2.2 machine is established using the only user on that machine, who has read/write rights on the entire source volume.
Both volumes have been checked with the respective OS's disk utilities and reported OK.
Any ideas how to solve this?

Hi, chap -
You might try restarting, then immediately hold the mouse button down, keep it held down until booting has finished. That's a hardware-based command to the Mac to eject all removable media.
You can download any needed firmware update for your iMac from these Apple Kbase articles -
Article #58174 - iMac: When to Install Available Updaters
Article #86117 - Firmware Updates
As eww suggests, reposting to the iMac CRT forum may be of benefit; there are sometimes model-specific peculiarities when it comes to migrating from OS 9 to OSX.
