File permisson and NAS

Hi!
I have a NAS (iomega network storage) and 2 macs. The problem is that if i copy or move a file or folder from Mac A to NAS and try to copy or move this to Mac B i get "no permission varning".
how do i remove this permissions from files that i move to the NAS? I always want the files i put on the NAS to be accessible for everybody.
Thanx for any help!

A dedicated gigabit network is how we have ours set up.
Obviously if
you have a single NIC in your server that handles both public
and
private traffic and/or are on a slow internal network then
this probably
isn't the way to go. With a dedicated NIC for NAS traffic on
a gigabit
network it's extremely fast. I'm sure the fiber channel
drives we have
don't hurt either.

Regarding Artwork and managing of iTunes Movie files on a NAS Drive

My Macbook hard drive was virtually full so like many other people in my situation I made space by moving my Movies and TV folders from iTunes media to a NAS networked hard drive connected to my network router at home. That's great, freed up loads of space and when I'm home my iTunes wirelessly finds it and can even stream the content via my Apple TV. My question now though is how do I add artwork to movie files that I have ripped from my DVD's? I've been going into the info pane and adding artwork as I normally do and clicking ok, but then nothing changes. It's as if iTunes cannot write the artwork image to the file on the NAS drive, or connect the thumbnail to it.
This has led me to question how do I now add a new movie file to my iTunes if the folder is located on a NAS drive now. I also normally add a movie file to my iTunes library and then amend it's metadata i.e. the video type (movie/TV Shows), add artwork etc. My concern is that I'm not sure how to add more files and also once I do I cannot seem to amend the metadata.
Does anyone have experience in this and can they explain how best to do it.

I have a similar setup with an iMac and media library on a TC and can add some converted movies but not all and changes to metadata don't save. Files aren't hidden somewhere in Home movies. I thought it was a format issue so switched to m4v Apple format and found that i can add some to the library but not others. Any that do add, don't take changes to the metadata - no error message, just doesn't process. Interestingly, I recently upgrades from a Windows pc to the Mac and under Windows it worked perfectly!

What are some of the best iOS apps can remotely played videos, audios, photos and text files from a NAS hdd connected to Airport Extreme USB port? And how to configure this setup?

I have already set up NAS hdd as connecting it at USB port of Airport Extreme, i also want to remotely access it from iPhone, so what's the next step? What are some of the best iOS apps can remotely played videos, audios, photos and text files from the NAS hdd and how to configure this setup?

*Edit - I am not able to connect to the NAS when hardwired to the airport extreme.

What is the best way to move files to a NAS

Hello,
I want to consolidate all my files on a NAS wired to my airport extreem with access by both the imac and the macbook pro.
Here's a bit of optional background on my situation:
My tidy little home network consists of two computers (imac Intel Core Duo and a Mac Book Pro) and airport extreem router. I also have a maxtor HD wired to the imac via fire wire for time machine backup. The imac is the primary file storage location and I share the home folder and sub-folders to the mac book pro with RW access to the files. There is not enough disk space on the imac to store all the files so I have my pictures stored on my macbook pro.
OK so now I have several questions I'm hoping you can help me with moving all my files to the NAS.
Is the NAS the right approach or do I need a server.
How can I get the Home folder to recognize or essentially sit on the NAS? The alternative (which I do with my macbook pro) is to point the user to the remote drive my configuring the side bar links to the external drive. I appreciate your advice here. I also know there are a bunch of details regarding moving my itunes and photo library which is a separate topic.
How do I handle file permissions with multiple users? Are there issues with a folder created by one user on the imac, limiting RW access by the macbook pro user?
Regarding the NAS, if I get a 2TB (two disk drive) NAS, I assume I can create two partitions (one for each drive) and have one for storage and another for time machine backup. Any advice here.
Thank you,

Remove the hard drive and get one of these USB hard drive adapters. http://tinyurl.com/a5l2htj Then plug the adapter into your iMac to see/retrieve the files.
 Cheers, Tom

Can´t edit or trash files on my NAS – (Error code -36)

I have all my files on a NAS. I have got a problem - I can´t trash any of the files via finder (tried Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.5). When I try I get this message: "The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “FILENAME” can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)"
I can change name on files, I can open, but not edit. I can put new files on the share and make copies, but can´t trash och edit files. I have searched for a solution but haven´t found anything that works.
I can via the nas own Web file Manager trash files but not from finder.
If I open an rtf-file, it says that it is locked in the titlearea, but its not locked if I shows "info" on that file in finder.
I can download any file of the nas to edit in the mac but not as long as it´s on the nas-share...
Please help... I´m geeting desperate...

Update:
I have found what makes the problem appear, If I configure the Qnap to not "Enable Network Recycle Bin", then everything works, but when activated same problem. I have tried everything with access rights, but nothing solves the problem when Network Recycle Bin is activated. This is strange because before I reformated the drive to begin from scratch this worked…
Update 2: A new firmware 3.6.0 was released today - Installed it and it fixed the problem!

How to migrate File server to NAS device?

All right so here's the scenario.
An external forest level trust is setup between two forests A & B as recently as we acquired the company B.
Users from forest B were already migrated to domain A.
Now I need to migrate file server from domain B to my domain A but the target where we need to move file shares is a NAS device, so basically we cannot do a simple server migration from domain B to domain A.
We need to copy over the data+ACL+Share permissions from fileserver in domain B to a NAS device in domain A whereas of course ACL permissions on file server present in domain B will obviously be as per source domain user accounts, example ACL permissions
currently will show as "B\user1".
So whats the best way to perform this in order to maintain the permissions & data.
Another question how do we copy share permissions from file server to NAS as I can robocopy the data with security permissions but how to copy over all the share permissions to destination NAS?

Hi,
You need to retain the SID History attribute when users across domains to ensure users in the target domain can access to files during migration.
For more detailed information, please refer to the threads below:

Can't see files on a NAS drive

After upgrading to Leopard on my 2 iMacs, I cannot see any files on my NAS drive. I can see folders but when I click on them, no files shows up. But files do show up when Im using a PC.
Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix this?

I had the drive on a user password, but changed it to just be accessible if you were connected to the router. With this setting I can see the files on my movie drive, but when I try to do I time machine backup, it just sits on the "making backup disk available" and never is able to start the backup. Is there some trick to allowing the disk to backup from the airport?

ITunes Server and Nas Sharing with Devices

Does anyone know how to copy files from a Nas Share in itunes to devices (iphone/ipad)? I have managed to set up itunes server on a QNap Nas. The music files appear in itunes and play but I can't seem to manage my music directly from the share. I'm guessing the same will apply to video too?
Currently running latest versions of everything on macbook pro retina 15".
Help!!

Hmmm, I'd give it a try, easy enough to move the FW drives.

Can the time capsule be used as both a time machine backup and NAS storage

Can the time capsule be used as both a time machine backup and NAS storage? I want to use the drive as external, wireless storage for all of my files so all my PCs, MACs and iOS devices can access the files. Plus, I want to use the drive for backing up my iMac via time machine. Can the time capsule device be used for both these purposes simultaneously? If not, are the other suggestions on how I can do this?

Can the time capsule device be used for both these purposes simultaneously?
It can, but is really not recommended. Sooner or later there will be a fight for space on the drive between Time Machine and the other files.
If you have plenty of free space on the drive, you can do this......but.....have you thought about how you will back up the "other" files that are stored on the Time Capsule?

How do I install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings

I need to update my system, I realized that I need Snow Leopard (quiet late) before Maverick. My question is, how can I install it keeping files and all the data. I found this on Internet, does it work?
Install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings
If you follow these steps, the installer will replace your operating system if one is already present, but will preserve your account information and personal files. You may have to reinstall some applications, however.
Insert the install disc (or the first install disc if you have more than one) into your disc drive. Restart your computer while holding down the c key. This causes your computer to start up from the install disc rather than your hard drive. When you see the gray Apple insignia, release c .
The Mac OS X installer should open automatically. Follow the on-screen prompts to read and accept the license agreement and begin the installation. When prompted to choose a destination disk, select your preferred location and click Install.
When the Mac OS X installation finishes with the disc, restart your computer. After the installation completes, a configuration program may begin automatically if you are installing for the first time. You will need to supply basic setup information for your computer.
Update your system software to ensure that you have the most recent operating system components. From the Apple menu, select Software Update... , and then follow the instructions on the screen. Often, you will have to restart your computer, and you may have to run Software Update multiple times before it can completely update your system.

That's why you need to back it up. You won't need to restore the backup immediately afterwards unless something goes wrong during the upgrade, but you'll need it later; the drive will eventually fail.

Pdf portfolio source file name and date in file details

Is it possible to import the source file name and extension as well as the source file created date in the portfolio file details? Need to document source to portfolio in working with 3rd parties that will only have the original source. Need to document what was converted into pdf as not all files in a directory will successfully convert to pdf. Sometimes need to convert 100's of files. Manual entry is inefficient. the file names and modified dates are displayed on the Combine Files dialog. is there a way to capture the detail on that page?

I don't need the detail of when the pdf was added to the portfolio. I
need know which dwg or jpg or word file was converted and the original
created date of that file for control of information.
That is impossible; sorry. For some *very specific* types of conversion to PDF the pdfx:SourceModified XMP tag will be set to show the last-modification date of the source file (for example DOCX files converted using MS Word), but there will never be a human-readable record of the source filename or its creation date unless you have manually added them as document XMP properties after conversion (this is what the "Custom Properties" dialog is for). To embed source data automatically would raise no end of privacy and security problems for customers, who most certainly do NOT want their recipients seeing details of internal documents.
Without writing a plugin there's no access to the internal workflow of the Combine Files dialog, so you cannot use a script to read the names and dates of the files *before* conversion and store them automatically in the new PDF Portfolio's Fields array.

Exporting catalog, making changes, then importing catalog does not update file movements and deletions

I export part of my master catalog to a laptop. I include the image files so I can edit the files at full res. After managing and editing files I import the catalog back into the master catalog. When importing I check to replace metadata, develop settings and negative files. I have been running some tests to be sure all my work is being captured in the master catalog by this process. I find that if I change develop settings or photo ratings this is detected when the file is imported and the data in the master catalog is updated properly. The surprise is that if I delete files or move files among folders in the exported catalog these changes are not detected and these changes are not updated inthe master catalog. It seems bizarre to me that such changes are not detected but I do not see how to get LR to recognize these changes and include them in the catalog update. Without this capability I don't see how to use catalogs to move part of a catalog to another computer for edits and file management and then move back to the master catalog.

There are various reasons why Lightroom works this way, but you'll need use pick flags to indicate photos to be deleted, and other metadata like colours or collections.

Download Helper, even with paid converter upgrade, gives "Invalid Capture File" errors and will not record audio, with "File Creation Error - Unable to rename/copy audio file" Error.

Download Helper Screen Capture worked to capture video if the default "no audio" option is active. But, no audio. The "speakers" or "microphone" audio options are confusing....the audio to be captured is from the video, so what do you choose? With either "speakers" or "microphone" selected, the captured file has poor audio and no video. Re-capture efforts (speakers) get "Invalid capture file error" and "File Creation error- Unable to rename/copy audio file"
The paid upgrade of "Converter" doesn't work.
Instructive documentation - not very good.
Suggestions - Need time delay between initiation of "Record" and starting the video to be recorded.
Could use timer tracking of the record process.
Are there operating system limitations? (Have Windows XP Pro)

That is an issue for the developer of that Download Helper.

I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?

I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version (CC2014) and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file>open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?
I have tried 'Open with' and the version of the program now installed on my computer isn't even suggested as an option and when I browse for it, the file wont open with it anyway

On Windows (don't know about Mac), the latest version will always take over the file association, and become the default for indd files. It's impossible to change it.
But there is a plugin for ID that makes this possible. Never tried it myself.
