Folder in NAS appears empty

Hi, taking first steps with my new iMac. Newbee question, probably. Have a working Linksys network with 1 NAS and 1 Mediahub, set up under Windows. Worked fine, could read all the files on my Mac too. However, now the Downloads folder seems empty, but Windows Finder can read the contents on my Win machine. Searched the knowledge base in vain. Any clues?

Found the answer, question not relevant anymore.

MacBook Pro says "startup disk full" and that I have 58GB of photos, but folder appears empty

For the past couple of days, I've been getting the message that I'm unable to save/download something because the startup disk is full. I checked the storage and the main problem appears to be 58.7 GB of photos, even though I've deleted all photos I could find (including iPhoto). I checked all of the folders on Finder, only to find my picture one taking up most of the space, but when I tried to view what was inside it appeared empty, and it wouldn't let me move the folder to trash. Any help on how to delete the contents of the folder?
Thank you

just kidding i figured it out

I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through internet connection. When I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear. Setting are for remove from server when moved from Inbox. Any idea what I can do to actually delete them?

I have an iPad 2 and receive e-mail through regular internet connection. Lately, when I delete e-mails, and clear my Trash folder, they re-appear, downloaded anew from the server and marked as unread. My e-mail Advanced Settings are selected for "Remove from server when moved from Inbox." Even when I access the e-mail accountfrom my desktop and delete the e-mails, the re-appear on my iPad. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this and what I can do to actually delete them?

Sounds like you are looking in the wrong Administrative Group container which is why you are seeing your Exchange 2010 servers in there.
When you install Exchange 2003 only you will see a container named by default as "CN=First Administrative Group" container. But this could be named anything if you changed the Organization Name on the installation when you installed the first
Exchange 2003 server into the domain/forest.
You will notice that when you install Exchange 2010 part of the AD setup is to create a new configuration container and is named by default "CN=First Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)".
So it sounds like you are not looking in the right location within ADSIEdit.

I recommend though that you ensure your Exchange 2003 servers are fully uninstalled or no longer present in your environment before you go deleting the Servers container though.. The following Microsoft article will help with this:

Mac OS 10.5 /
I deleted the " Private" folder ... and emptied the trash. So the folder and its contents no longer exists on my computer at all !!!
I do have the OS 10.5 dvd that i purchased years ago...
But my computer will not start from it on its own.
My question is what is the open source or terminal language code used to tell my mac to look in the DVD rom drive for startup info? I know that im not the only person in this world who has deleted the "PRIVATE" folder and emptied the trash so it no longer exists on their machine...
That said theres gotta be a common fix for a Power PC G4 that has the OS X dvd in the rom drive but wont look to it to reinstall the vital contents of the PRIVATE folder.
Once again there is not a copy of this file or its contents in the recycle bin...
Also rebooting the machine , pressing and holding the letter C does not prompt the machine to look to the dvd rom drive.
I was reinstalling pro tools and figured I would make some room by cleaning my computers HD...
Lol It was a bad choice to delete this file ...
Thanks guys

Okay sorry it took forever to respond... But for a while there I gave up on this computer!!!!
Money's been tight lately , so taking it in to a professional was not yet an option... though I did consider it eventhough.
Anyway long story short im glad I didnt spend any money because I already had all the tools necessary to fix this issue but was going about it in the wrong way. Okay so here is my scenario and the breakdown... Though this may not fix the issue for everyone :( which *****... But I know we all will have different circumstances.
Anyway here we go...
Okay so first things first.... Years ago I purchased the OS 10.5.1 disk ... So that has always been in my possession!!!!
I realize that some may not have a disk to reflash your OS to your hard drive... but if you do your in luck.
2ndly ... I had an external harddrive with all of my itunes downloaded music so it was more than okay with me to delete my primary HD because all the important stuff could either be copied over or repathed to be located.
-------If you dont want to read through the whole story the fix is summed up in the bottom section-------
Okay so now the SOLUTION!!!!
By trial and error , and pure boredom I opened up my computer to clean the inside...
AND
"Disconnected the primary HD"
and just because ....... REBOOTED my computer. Just to see what it would do.
Upon restart and though it looked like it would repeat its usual cycle...
About 1 minute in to that process my computer froze for about 2 seconds and flashed to the OS installation screen.
Mind you I havent seen this screen yet... Probably hasnt been since I installed the OS years ago.
After a bit of trial and error...
I decided to tell my computer to startup from the OS 10.5 disk located in my dvd rom drive and restarted once again...
this setting is under
Utilities / startup disk
After a little more trial and error ... I realized that I could reconnect the primary HD , restart the machine and return to the OS installation menu.
So upon this discovery
I went to the Disk Utility located under Utilities
Highlighted my primary HD located in the left hand column
Once highlighted ...
In the heading section on the right I selected the option
Erase
in which I erased My current OS on my primary HD ...
I used the first option in the list under security... Because it seemed like the least invasive and would take the least amount of time to see if this process would actually work.
I FORGOT to add something...
Another reason why I deleted my primary HD!!!!!
I forgot to say that it WOULD NOT!!!!! Show up in the STARTUP list as an option...Even After multiple reboots....
But like clockwork... Once I deleted its name IT SHOWED UP as an option!!!!
So back to the next step...
I returned to the STARTUP option under utilities ... And was then able to see MY primary HD now as a startup option...
But ofcourse it had no name because it we previously erased it.
So when Clicking my newly erased HD ... I was almost immediately prompted to REINSTALL the OS ...
Which said it would take about 57 minutes ... But I believe was alot less...
My issue was resolved ... My computer then stated the install was SUCCESSFUL!!!!!!! :))))))))))) lol ;)
It was like I was setting up for the first time ;) asking for my registration info...
The dilemma of deleting the private folder and emptying the trash is finally over resolved. Done ... and no extra money spent!!!!!!!!!
Its really crazy that the information for such a simple thing is not readily available. Especially being such a simple fix.
I know im not the only person who's had this issue , because i've seen numerous posts with similar wording.
I also know I wont be the last person to have this issue... So I hope this synopsis makes sense.
-------One more time the fix------
*Insert your OS dvd into your dvd rom drive.
*Unplug your primary HD or corrupted startup disk
*Reboot your machine...
Upon restart your primary HD will not be recognized...
* you will then be prompted to select your language.
Once selected
*Click Utilities/startup... Highlight the the selection that refers to the OS dvd located in the dvd rom drive.
* Click restart...
!!!!!!!!!!Be sure to reconnect your Primary HD Before your computer restarts and you hear the chime!!!!!!!!
If you do not replug your HD before the chime it will not be recognized.
In that case restart again.
Upon restart once again
*Choose your language...
*Click Utilities / disk utility
In the left column select and
*Highlight your HD ...
Then towards the top portion / center of the page
*Click the heading Erase
Then on the page toward the bottom
*Click security options
This will then provide erase options.
I USED THE FIRST OPTION
"Dont erase data"...
*click OK
* click erase...
Once erased which should take a few seconds
*Cancel the disk utility...
* Click Utilities / startup
And your newly erased HD should now appear in the list.
* Select your drive from the list by highlighting
It should no longer have a name.
*Once selected, you will then be prompted to restart and install the OS to your newly erased HD...
Thats it!!!!
Once everything reinstalls re-add your personal info or registration info and you are up and running.
Goodluck ;)

Download Folder Can't Be Emptied

My wife no longer can get downloaded files out of her download folder. It appears to be too full. When you go to the folder the items are grayed out. At this point I would like to clean everything out of there so that it is usable again. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to address this problem?

Hey..
Actually my wife uses Firefox primarily, so maybe that would be a better browser >to focus on.
I had a doubt while posting the reply and mentioning about Safari. Let us concentrate on Firefox and clear the downloaded items. Here are the steps.
1. Open Firefox
2. Click "Tools" on the top menu bar
3. Choose 'Downloads'
4. A window will open and you will see all the downloads in that window.
5. At the bottom left of the window, you have a button "Clear List"
6. Click on that and the download window will be emptied.
Hope that helps............
Regards

Music directory appears empty, but it's

I have a Creative Zen 32 GB.
Firmware version .2.0
Contains about 7 GB of music
I've had it for about 3 weeks, and it worked great until last night.
I listened to it for awhile yesterday afternoon, and then went to add some new music yesterday evening and ran into problems.
I opened Windows Explorer to 'drag and drop' the new mp3's and the Music directory appeared empty from within WE. I've added new music this way previously, and I was able to see all the subfolders of mp3's on my Zen; it looked just like browsing folders with? WE on my computer.
I unplugged the Zen, and verified that the music was still in the player, and it was.
I plugged it back in, and tried the Zen Media Explorer. I ran into the same problem. The music directory appeared empty when I tried to browse it from the ZME.
I went back to Windows Explorer and tried dragging and dropping a folder of new songs into the Music directory.
It acted like it was copying them, but afterwords, WE still read the directory as empty.
I unplugged the player and checked the music list, and the new songs were on there.
I thought maybe it was my home computer (Dell Dimension 8250 running Windows XP w/ SP2), so I tried my work computer today (Dell Optiplex 755 running Windows XP w/ SP2), and got exactly the same results. Tried both Windows Explorer and Zen Media Explorer, and neither one would view the contents of the Music directory on the Zen.
I downloaded the Recovery Tool and ran it. It upgraded the firmware, but that was all it did. I went back into Windows Explorer and Zen Media Explorer and there was no change. They both still show the directory as empty.
It seems like the problem is within the Zen player, since I've run into the same behavior on two different computers.
Has anyone out there run into a problem like this?

Hi,
(first of all: sorry for my bad English!)
I have the same exact problem, the music files stills in the Player (with the Folder Icon too) and the Zen still them correctly, but in the Media Explorer the Music Directory Is Empty.
Plus all the Videos and DataFiles (no multimedia files) have totally deleted from the player!!! (how it is possible?)
In this scenario (files in the Player but not showed in the Zen Music Folder) i've add some new files (with the Creative Media Explorer), the player correctly puts these new files in the list togheter with existing files, but in the Media Explorer -> Music Folder i can see only the new added files.
If i select Properties from Windows it tells me the right free space available (even if i couldn't see the files).
There is something i can do instead of Format the Player? (i've update the firmware but didn't change the situation)
Zen 8GB fw:.2.0e, no SD in the Player.
Thanks
Vahes?

Mapped network drive appears empty for all users on one computer

We have several network drives mapped via a batch file at log in. On one particular Windows 7 computer one of these drives maps but appears empty. Manually mapping to the drive and assigning a different drive letter makes no difference but manually
mapping by entering the IP address allows viewing and accessing the contents.
The malfunctioning network drive is also using Hosted BranchCache. The following settings are set in local group policy:
(\Network\BranchCache)
Turn on BrancheCache - Enabled
Set BranchCache Hosted Cache Mode - Enabled - <servername>
Configure BranchCache for network files - Enabled - 0
The servers involved are running Windows Server 2012.
I am at a loss here and will appreciate any suggestions.
~JuniorG33k "Why is this thus? What is the reason for this thusness?"

With Offline Files disabled the contents of the mapped drive are visible and accessible. Unfortunately, Offline Files must be enabled for BranchCache to work.
Looking in the Event Viewer at “Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\OfflineFiles\Operational” I can see that the mapped network drive transitioned to slow link during high latency but has never transitioned back.

I have selected to have photos in my icloud but the photo folder does not appear.

I have selected to have photos in my icloud but the photo folder does not appear in icloud. There are many folders, like mail, but none for photos.

You can see photo stream photos on icloud.com. You can only see them on an iOS device or computer that is signed into your account with photo stream enabled. If you want to see them on the web, you would have to add the photos to a shared stream using the public website option enabled (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). This gives you a private url allowing you to view them from any computer browser.

Issue: installed Adobe Reader XI, Norwegian version, existing pdf will not open or appear empty

I have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times, but I still have the same issue. Adobe automatically gives me the Norwegian version as I live in Norway. When I open existing pdf files they appear empty, and automatically close themselves after a few seconds.
Any idea how I can solve this problem?
Your input is highly appreciated!
Thank you.

Wish you a great day – you just helped making mine a lot better!

When I updated to Lion, a folder named RamdiskFixer appeared in my Applications folder. What do the applications contained in this folder do?

Thanks. I am sure you are correct, although I don't recall installing it and I only discovered it after the update to Lion. That is why I thought there was some connection. Anyway, I have deleted the folder and its applications. Thanks again for setting me straight.

In smartform folder's size appears smaller than main window

Hi all,
I used folder and table in main window. table takes the width of main window but folder does not takes. in print preview folder's size appears small then table. please suggest how to increase the size of folder.
regards
shahid

Hi,
Try this way , First create a window inside the main window then create your folder node. Generally if you are creating a node inside the node it takes the default of main window.
