File transfers - ASC vs BIN ?

Hi everyone !
Can somebody explain to me the "technical" difference between transfering files in ASC vs BIN mode.
I use TCode CG3Y to download files from the SAP server to my PC and I noticed that ASC mode truncates (after ?? characters on the same line) where BIN does not but... other than that, there has to be something else that differs from the 2 xfer modes... Any idea ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi "BreakPoint" !
Thanks fo rthe info on CG3Y... Can I ask you what do you use then for your file transfers?

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800.
Over the past month, I have had problems when transfering files from my harddrive, over Firewire 800 to a portable drive. I usually transfer very large files (20gb or more) to the portable drives for moving files around. When I drag a file over to copy onto a drive, the transfer starts normally. If I drag more files to copy over, the computer screen goes darker and a large icon comes up that looks like a power button icon. It tells me to restart, so I have to do a hard shut down on my G5. Weird. I also get the dark screen of death sometimes when I am transfering those large files and open another application to do some work while it's copying. It's killing me. I am having to sit here and wait for the transfer to finish before I can do anything.
Any thoughts...

Have you run the Apple Hardware Test? Sounds like it could be a RAM problem.

I have sent a file to the trash bin. When I come to empty the trash bin everything goes out except this one particular file and I get a note saying the file is 'in use' but it is not. How can I delete this file from trash?

I have a Macbook Pro with OS X Lion 10.7.2. I have sent a work file to the trash bin along with many other files. When I empty the trash this one particular file remains and I get a message that this file is still in use. I have tried returning the file to my documents, opening it, closing it and then sending it to trash and again I try to empty trash but the same message comes up - Q - How can I trash this file permanently?

First just try logging out and back in. Whatever is holding on to it may not be running after the logout thus freeing it so you can trash it after logging back in.
You might also try Trash It!
Lastly, look at the following for suggestions:

Problem with Jabber and file transfers WAN - LAN-Users - a solution!

Hi,
I read a lot of messages about problems with file transfers between iChat-Users, if one (or both) are behind a NAT.
I had this problem to and found an easy solution:
My situation
iChat-Server behind a Netgear ProSafe FireWall. I opened the needed Ports including Port 7777 (the Port for the iChat-proxy (proxy65).
The iChat-Server is configured to host the domain "server.ourdomain.com" (as an example).
This address can be reached from the LAN and also from the WAN-side.
From the LAN-side the DNS redirects to 192.168.1.1, from the WAN this domain redirects to our official IP-address (the WAN-IP of the FireWall).
I tried nearly all kinds of mentioned solutions, but nothing helped.
The really easy solution is: I just added our official IP to the "Hosted Domains" in the iChat-section of Server-Admin.
After that change, the transfers are made via the proxy65 of iChat-Server. The transfers are shown in the log /private/var/jabberd/log/proxy65.log.
I think, that the other posters who also have this kind of problem are working in a similar setup (domain name of server is used from the LAN AND the WAN-side with different IP-addresses (LAN-IP & WAN-IP).
This solution will only work, if the WAN-IP is a fixed address.

Until the introduction of file promises in AIR Athena, it has never been possible to drag remote files out of an AIR application.
You could refer to the http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/articles/using_file_promises.html
Hope this is helpful. Please let me know if I could help more.

Error in writing to file '$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/bin/java'

Hi,
I have installed Forms & Reports Services Standalone (10.1.2.0.2) on RHEL 5 and now I am applying the Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2, Patch Set 3 (10.1.2.3), but OUI gives the following error:
Error in writing to file '$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/bin/java'.
[$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/bin/java
(Text file busy)]
I can't seem to find anything about this error on metalink or via google. Can anyone help me solve this? Thanks.

Ok, this time I stopped all processes first with opmnctl stopall and emctl stop iasconsole. I then started OUI again to install the patch. It seemed to go fine - i didnt get that java error this time, but another error almost at the end of the installation:
Error in invoking target 'proxy_install runm_install server_install cgi_install
cli_install conv_install qv_install' of makefile
'/opt/oracle/Forms10gR2/reports/lib/ins_reports.mk'
According to Metalink ID 564174.1 - "Any installation of Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2) on OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x in which Reports is getting installed will fail with reports relinking errors" and the solution is as follows:
# rpm -i xorg-x11-libs-compat-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.1.i386.rpm
# mv /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6 /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6.ORG
# ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6 /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6
I have already done these 3 steps before the base installation (just to avoid this error), yet I am getting this error even when the symbolic link already exists. Do you think I can just ignore this error and continue with the installation, or is there something else I need to check first?

I bought a new computer, and i have transfered everything using home share, file transfers, etc.. yet still when i go to sync, itunes tells me ipod can only be synced with one computer... is there a way to retire the relationship with the old computer?

i bought a new computer. the itunes app allows for home shareing, file transfers, etc.. but i want to discontinue the syncing with the old computer and sync my ipod touch now only on my new system... but i cant seem to disconnect that old relationship at all.. when i try to syncit says that my ipod is already synced with another computer, do i want to discontinue that and only use the new informationon this computer? i dont want to do that yet because it doesnt seem like everything has come over, and i am afraid of losing songs that i downloaded from cds, etc..

if you don't want to sync it because you don't think that everything has been transferred then i would check first if you can, before you commit to used only the data from your new computer.
though, im not sure if this is true, but i think that when you sync your ipod to a new computer it will take the items from your ipod and put it on itunes, like when you purchase something on your ipod and it gets automatically transfered, but don't take my word for it.

Is there a way to prevent LR from reducing size (pixels) of files transfered to Photoshop as a psd file for editing?

The subject line says it all. I have discovered that LR reduces the size of files transferred to Photoshop for further editing when compared to the same RAW file processed in ACR in Photoshop. For example, a psd file created by LR from a 36 MB RAW file will typically result in a 100 MB psd file. The same RAW file processed similarly in Photoshop will result in a file around 300 MB. This makes a huge difference when the files are converted to JPEGs for printing. The smaller LR psd files result in JPEGs typically under 500 KB where the Photoshop JPEGs are typically around 1.5 MB.

Whew! I didn't think this would turn into such a long discussion!. OK - my error, spatial data not color. But that is loosing focus on my question. My objective is to get the best print possible from the final JPEG file used for printing.. As previously noted, for a given RAW file w/similar adjustments but with one processed in LR and the other in PS , a print made from the larger of two resulting JPEG files, the larger JPEG file resulting from only PS ACR processing (i.e., no LR) will result in a better print. Elie-d appears to have answered my basic question. If LR will always pass a 103 MB file then I assume there is no way to change this size. In case anyone is interested here is some additional info for consideration. Both LR & PS using 8 bit mode and 240 ppi.. Procedure in LR: 1) download RAW files from camera CD; 2) make adjustments to photo; 3) using Edit in External Processor, photo transferred to PS in PSD format, 8 bit. 4) file size around 100 MB (103 MB per elie-d). Procedure in PS: 1) download RAW file to hard drive with Nikon View2; 2) open file in PS - auto opens in ACR; 3) apply essentially the same adjustments (e.g., exposure, highlight, shadow, etc) ) as applied in LR; 4) file opened in PS editor; 5) resulting PSD file size with no further processing (i.e., no layers, etc.) is 310 MB). The resulting JPEG file created from the LR PSD is typically less than 200 KB whereas the JPEG from the PS PSD will generally be around 1.5 MB. As an academic question it would still be interesting to know why one gets different size PSD files from LR and PS and what, if any, affect this has on print quality. As for now I will not use LR to process RAW files. I prefer the larger PSD & JPEG files I get using just PS

How to find out the size of files transferred over the SQL * Net?

I am trying to test the Advanced Compress (AC) for 11g Data Guard. When the AC is turned on, the archived log files are supposed to be compressed on the primary database server and sent over SQL*Net, then decompressed on the standby db server. We will see the file sizes are the same on both primary and standby servers. I want to verify that the AC works by monitoring how much data are sent over SQL*Net. Per Oracle, AC uses 35% less of the bandwith. That means the size of the files transferred should be at least 65% of the original size.
Is there a way to find out the size through Oracle utilities? If not, how to find out by OS utilities? OS is Solaris 5.10.
Thanks.

I'm not sure this can be done via SQL*Net, but a network packet sniffer between the two servers should be able to help - you might want to contact your network team.

HT1364 help I just completed this task to free up my hard disc and be able to upgrade my iTunes but when I re-opened iTunes it is a blank new account! When I copied the iTunes file to the recycle bin it made me effectively empty as I copied over as it was

Hey can someone help???
I just completed this task (support.apple.com/kb/HT1364) moving my music to an external HD to free up my PC hard disc and all went well until I re-opened iTunes and it is a blank new account!
I also don't can't access anything from the recycle bin as when I copied the iTunes file to the recycle bin it said it was too large to copy over so made me effectively empty as I copied over as it was so big.
Any help gratefully recieved or where I can get some, I am going round in circles. I also don't know which itunes operating system I have, it is around 3 years old.

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

Items In Use for File Transfers

Whenever I transfer several files at a time (7+ or so), I get the error "The operation cannot be complete because the item "(insert filename here)" is in use."
I have tried the lsof command in Terminal with no results. This happens with different files (mainly pictures, as I transfer those in large amounts) and from both local drives and card readers or USB drives. The files are usually being moved to a network attached storage that is in the Finder exceptions for indexing. The files aren't always new, so I do not think finder is indexing them. If I click "ok" (and in doing so cancel the transfer) and start it again, it works just fine (until it decides to hit another file and repeats the process).
It's a very annoying little problem because it forces me to micromanage large file transfers. Any ideas?

As a workaround consider
ditto
Sometimes I get a scrap file in the trash that cannot be deleted for the same reason, although I find no obvious cause. Sometimes it's the mail app and a stray RSS file, but not always. Even then I have to shutdown and restart mail, which is really not acceptable to me.
Usually a logout/in unhooks it but that's not a solution either.
You might try transferring the files using a new account with no apps running or even installed other than the defaults.

File Transfers in Chat Rooms?

We're running OS X Server 10.8.3. Is there any known way to have the ability to transfer files inside of a Chat Room? I find it mind-numbing that this isn't possible. We cannot use the chat room feature at all without this. Does anyone know of a way to get it to work or are we stuck now having to look for a third party chat room product?
thanks,
Ben

I'm not sure either of you understood my question. I'll try to make it more clear, in case anyone else has any ideas or feedback that could help:
We are using Mac OS X Server, 10.8.3. We are using the "Messages Server" service. When using a "persistent chat room" -- one of the supposed features of OS X Server. From http://www.apple.com/osx/server/features/#communication ...
"Messages Server brings the collaborative power of instant messaging to your organization. Now workgroups can transfer files securely, share group messages, conduct audio conferences, even broadcast a presentation, movie, or photo slideshow to other Messages users running OS X."
And from the OS X Server product overview PDF, pg. 18...
Group Collaboration Made Easy
Messages Server works with OS X to automatically populate users’ buddy lists with
members of the groups to which they belong, so it’s easy for them to start communicating. And thanks to store-and-forward functionality, Messages Server allows users
to send messages to buddies who are online, combining the advantages of instant
messaging and email.
Messages users can request Messages Server to create and host a persistent chat
room. Perfect for virtual-team scenarios, project-specific discussions, and real-time,
blow-by-blow updates, the chat room allows individuals to join at any time, leave
when they need to—even log out and shut down—and still come back to review
all communications from the time the chat room opened.
Here's the problem I'm perplexed by:
File transfers work just fine when doing 1-to-1 chats. However, in a "Chat Room", they do not work at all.
I realize that this may be "just how it is" but I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge of a way to make it possible. Seems like a ridiculous limitation, and one that makes the entire (otherwise useful) feature of "persistent chat rooms" all but moot for us.
thanks,
Ben

Disconnect from WiFi Button in Yosemite (Faster File Transfers via Airdrop)

Hi all! Just thought I'd share a great new pro-tip I found that's pretty handy.
Sometimes file transfers through a complex or busy network with a (think hotel lobby or coffee shop), Airdrop file transfers can run extremely slow vs. it going from computer to computer via no network (Ad Hoc). I was determined to find a work around for disconnecting from a WiFi network without turning off Wifi.
Anyways, Yosemite introduced a much asked for feature - The disconnect from WiFi button! Just hold down option while you select the WiFi indicator on the menu bar and click disconnect! Your WiFi will continue to be on and it simply won't connect to that network again. If you now search for other computers in AirDrop, it will find them and be a much faster computer to computer connection.

Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or if it's your User's folder that contains the problem.
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Test Markup in Mail using the iCloud account.
Continue testing to see what works in the new User.
Do you still see the issue?
If yes, then the problem is with your base files.
If no, then the problem is in your User's folder.
Finder - my iMac name is - iMacs iMac. All of a sudden it become iMacs iMac (2) and latter iMacs iMac (6). What are these numbers ?
In System Preferences > Sharing you can see name. When Finder adds a number it indicates it's seeing another drive with the same name. You can select to rename but this could also be an indication of issues at the base level.
Do you have an external drive that could be used to clone your drive in case you need to do a clean install?

File transfers not working

my file transfers have suddenly stopped working, they start and crap out around a quarter of the way through. the majority of people that im talking to are not on ichat but aim on windows. what can i do, and if i have to delete and re install how do i save my buddy list?

Hi:
If you think your iChat problems might be from corrupted ichat preferences files, the "sledge hammer" approach would be to delete the five com.apple.ichat.*.plist files that are in your Home folder's Library folder's Preferences folder. The next time you launch iChat, it will be just like a first-time-ever launch of iChat, so you will need to re-enter all the iChat account information when the iChat startup wizard launches, and your iChat preferences, in particular, remembering things like resetting your iChat > Preferences > Video > Bandwidth to None and stuff like that. Your buddy list is maintained on AIM's servers, not your computer, so it's safe.

XML files and assemblies in bin directory

In VS 2010 the bin directory was very simple and straight forward. Now in VS 2012 Web apps the bin directory is filled with a bunch of System and Microsoft assemblies a bunch of folders named with the two letter country code use in URLs and a bunch
of xml files with the name of the System and Microsoft assemblies. I can guess the reason for the assemblies is so that the web app can be deployed to servers without the .Net Framework installed or to which the installed app does not have access to
the GAC. But what is the reason for all of the xml files. Then to add insult to injury, even though the project is created with all of these xml files listed in the bin folder, each and everyone has a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark
beside which I assume means that the file does not exist physically in the folder. When you go to windows explorer sure enough they aren't there.
What is the purpose of all of these xml files, and if they are needed then why aren't they added to the bin folder? I can not publish my project because the files do not exist. Can I delete these files with impunity?

How can you possibly think that this is an ASP.Net issue?
Visual Studio 2012 created the listing for those files and foreign folders in the bin, NOT Asp.Net.
Visaul Studio 2012 listed those files in the bin and failed to create the files physically NOT Asp.Net.
Visual Studio 2010 does NOT put those extraneous files in the exact same kind of Asp.Net project, but Visual Studio 2012 does.
This is behavior that only occurs with the new version of Visual Studio. If it were an Asp.Net issue then Visual Studio 2010 would exhibit the same behavior.
Visual Studio is the mechanism that carries out publishing the project. This is a function of the IDE. It is Visual Studio that is reporting it can not complete the task because it cannot find the files it did not create.
This is new behavior from Visual Studio 2012, which makes it impossible to work.
In addition, Visual Studio 2012 keeps having the Output and Errors window show up on the level where the code windows are suppose to open and the code windows open where the output window is supposed to open.
This behavior has NOTHING to do with Asp.Net or it would be present in ALL versions of Visual Studio, but it is only happening in Visual Studio 2012.
Are the moderators of this forum trying to avoid the hard questions, or are they trying to hide flaws in Visual Studio?
