Finding other files with Centrale

I have (sadly) upgraded to a new laptop. I have successfully moved all my media files to the new laptop.
My new laptop has Win7. It is a home deluxe version, and therefore there is no WinXP emulator available. So, my beloved Creative Media Organizer no longer works. I'm stuck with Centrale.
I download a lot of podcasts and other files that are NOT part of my 'music library' on the laptop, and I cannot, after MANY attempts and much research, figure out how to access files that are not part of the music library with the Creative Centrale (or the Windows Explorer, I tried that too.)
Any suggestions?

Do you or have you ever tryed to put dvds on you iPod?
If they dont rip right they will still go on your iPod and you will have no way to get to them.Have you tryed the following..?
This bar should not take more than few megabytes so you must have used your iPod in disk mode and added files through My Computer. To delete these go to My Computer > iPod (make sure your iPod "disk use" is enabled in iTunes) and delete the files you added there. DO NOT try to delete any files/folders that you did not create as it will mess up your iPod.
Best Regards, Zack

Does anyone know what the file "memeodhelper is? It's preventing me from backing up my home directory. I can't even find the file with search. Hidden somehow?

I would like to backup my Mac by copying my home directory to an external disk. When I try this, it always gets hung up on a file called "memeodhelper" saying I don't have permission to access the file and the paste stops. Can't find the file with a search. Any ideas?

Hi Ray,
Spotlight is no good for finding anything Apple thinks you don't need to find.
You can "fix" that error...

Or likely trash it...

Search and find jpg files with uppercase extension

Macbook pro 13 inch retina display with OS X Yosemite.
Some of the images I'm working on are being saved with all uppercase extension .JPG.
My questions is:
1) Does anyone know why this is happening?
2) Is there a way to search all the files that have the uppercase extension .JPG?
3) How could I change all the files with uppercase extension .JPG either individually or batch all the files automatically?
4) Is there a way to have my files saved with the normal lowercase .jpg extension for future files?
Thank you.

Which program are you using to edit your jpeg images?
On a normal Mac with HFS Journaled disk format, there is not any difference with upper case or lower case file names - only if you have formatted the disk as a "HFS Journaled Case Sensitive" can you have two files that differ only in case. For example on a disk with normal formatting, if you had a file called abc.jpg you could not create another file called abc.JPG (you will get an error if you try), but on a disk that was formatted as HFS Journaled Case Sensitive you could have both files.
So in your case the upper case files would be opened if you typed in the lower or upper case name.
Do you have a few files with this upper case issue or lots?
If you have only a few just rename them in Finder (Yosemite Finder now has a nice rename feature) - just highlight all the files you want to rename then right-click or control-click and select the item in the options dialog that appears named "Rename xx items" where xx is the number of items you had highlighted.
If you have a lot let me know and will tell you a different way that is easier but involves using the command line in Terminal.
Is it possible you accidentally had the caps lock key pressed when you typed in a name? In any event it doesn't really matter how they got the upper case name, simply changing the names to lower case should fix the problem so that it doesn't happen again.

Finding other files in same ftp to use in applet

I have created a signed applet that can access, write, and delete files within the same folder as the jar file containing the class (signed applets require jar files to hold the class). On my computer I use
String dir = getCodeBase().getPath(); to locate whatever directory the jar file may be in, which works. However, when I put everything (jar, files, signed html applet, etc) on my ftp (same setup as on my computer) and try to run the applet online, it cannot find the files. How do I solve this?

I see... I am not very familiar with client/server interactions. I have made a very simple text messaging before. However, it only allowed one connection a time. Is it possible to create a server that can receive any number of connections to send data needed for the client's applet and receive specific commands to modify certain data on the server side?
In a very basic example:
A server keeps a Serializable file containing a list of names. Any number of client can visit the applet's web page, which automatically makes the connection to the server. The client is then provided with the list of names and the options (JButtons with JTextFields) to add a name, modify a name, or delete a name which changes the file's information.
If such is possible, could you point me to a tutorial that mainly deals about creating this type of server.

Find a file with AppleScript

Hi everyone !
Is there a way to find a file using AppleScript ?
The "find" command in the finder seems not working or I have a problem with the syntax.
In an other hand, I dont find any way to script Spotlight...
I hope I am wrong
Any idea will be welcome
JPaul

Hi Jeanpauld,
It works fine.
As the final use is in a FileMaker pro data base, I
prefer this solution.
Glad to hear the script worked for your particular situation.
In which dictionnary can I find SpotlightSearch ?
"SpotlightSearch" is just what I named the subroutine of the script. You could name it whatever you like but I figured that would be a good name for it since it uses the spotlight technology to perform the search.
As Joseph Briggs pointed out the best way to get information about the mdfind command used in the do shell script portion of the SpotlightSearch subroutine is to use the Terminal application. Launch the Terminal and type man mdfind.
If you have any further questions regarding this command please feel free to ask and I would be glad to try and help you through it. There's quite a bit that can be done using the mdfind command!
Thanks a lot for your help !
Anytime Jeanpauld.
Sorry about not replying to your response sooner but the new discussion forum format is refusing to email me letting me know when my subscriptions get updated. I used to rely on that feature and will have to keep my own eye on my subscriptions for a bit while Apple works out the bugs in the new forums.
Take care Jeanpauld...

Can I use Icloud to store and share other files, with other Mac users?

Hello, I was just wondering if I could use iCloud to store and share files with other Mac users over the internet? Thanks!

I would suggest re posting in the iCloud for Mac forum where all the people in here that are experts with that hang out. Good luck.

Finder hiding files with "..." in the file name?

One of my files is named with a "..." at the start, which seems to be hidden in the finder - I can see from the folder size that the file is in there but can't see it. Is there anyway I can change the file name on a hidden file?

Open the Script Editor or AppleScript Editor in one of the subfolders of Applications and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.

Spotlight - how to find RTF files with the query language (kMDItemKind,etc)

Hi folks. I'm trying to come up with a string that will find all RTF files.
There are many strings for other docs -- like Microsoft Word is
kMDItemContentType == "com.microsoft.word.doc"
But I am trying to create one that will find all RTF files. There doesn't seem to be a kMDItem command for extension or anything, and if I type "com.nisus.writer" I'd just be guessing. And I only want to include RTF files.
I'm probably missing something obvious, but I'm a complete non-programmer (obviously).
Thanks.

That's a partial solution, but it would be very helpful if one could somehow get the pathname onto the clipboard. Being able to see the pathname is a lot less useful than being able to use it.

After setting up Time Machine can't find other files on TC!

I first used TC as a disk to back up some files, then configured it as Time Machine. Now I can't find the original files anymore. Have the files been wiped out? Does Time Machine set-up partition the disk?
Thanks

Thank you for the detailed instructions on your Time Machine site!
I wonder if it all still applies to OSX 10.6.8, latest Airport Utility and Time Capsule 2TB (purchased 5 days ago) ...
Yes.
You say Time Machine sparsebundle expands over time, possibly overwriting other data on the disk.
No. It won't delete anything else, but it will, eventually, fill all the space available to it.
you give instructions on how to expand the sparsebundle with Disk Utility.
No, the instructions are to limit the maximum size of the sparse bundle.
Is sparsebundle a disk image or a partition?
A rather odd type of disk image.
If keeping other data on TC disk would be risky, why is file sharing an option in Airport Utility, even over WAN, Mobile Me, Bonjour?
Because you can do either. Apple allows you to do both, which is ok in some situations, but usually it becomes a problem, sooner or later.
Perhaps Apple has solved those problems with new hardware/software?
No. You still can't partition the TC's internal HD, short of physically removing it, which voids the warranty. Thus the workarounds.

Compiler cannot find other files

Ok, whenever I try to compile any file the references another file I've written it tells me that it "cannot find symbol". Everything is correct as I can compile just fine on other computers that have java installed on them, but this one seems to hate it for some reason. I have a windows xp machine with an intel processor, and I have the latest version of java 1.5.0_06. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this to happen? Thanks for your help.

Here is the compile error
"CampStore.java:5: cannot find symbol

CampStore and CampStoreGUI are in the same file, and CampStoreGUI class is compiled and as stated before, the entire program compiles on other PCs. The path name to javac.exe is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\bin. This may be helpful:

What will best help me view MPEG and other files with OS X ?

I've downloaded various files for OS X from Limewire but cannot view them as Quicktime needs extra files.
I cannot view MPEG files nor others and want to know if there's a simple, free programme compatible with OS X that I can download to view these files.

Download these 4 freeware products and you should be able to view just about any file

Finder: Rename file with Opt+left click missing

Hey all,
I was racking my brain and that of the collective internet. but I can't seem to get OPT-Left Click to work anymore to rename a file.
Any ideas how to do this in Mavericks/OS X 10.9 Finder?

To rename a file choose it then press return.

TS3276 The Finder doesn't find ~/Library/Mail, or even "library". I need to do some experimenting to get my mail back and want to back up but can't even find a file with my messages in it.

Trying to save my email prior to a wave of experimentation to get email working again but finder doesn't find "library". Has the library been omitted from Mountain Lion?

Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library".
After that you can drag it to your sidebar for easy access.
