How do I make them visible?

I have an external hard drive that is split into one PC section and one Mac section. I have a new MacBookPro and now I want to copy some files from the PC section to the Mac section but can not see any files in the PC section to copy. How do I make them visible?
Confused.

Open Terminal in the Utilities folder. Enter at the prompt:
chflags nohidden
After the word "hidden" put a space and type in the path to and name of the file. For example, if they are on the Desktop: chflags nohidden ~/Desktop/name_of_file. Include the file's extension. Press RETURN. If all the files have the same extensions, then use chflags nohidden ~/Desktop/*.jpg or *.jpeg.

    The camera connection kit can only be used to import photo/video files from a camera, SD card or USB flash drive. You can't import other types of files. You can't export any type of files using the camera connection kit.

  • Copied images from flash drive and they are invisible. how do I make them visible

    I have copied some image files (jpeg format) from a flash drive onto my imac. When I go to view the images they do not appear. When I try to copy them again, there is a message that I cannot modify invisible images. These images were originally downloaded to a windows-based computer and copied to the flash drive. Is there a way to make these image files visible? I am trying to use them for a website. Thanks!

  • My photos are hidden how can I make them visible?

    I have tried to look under pictures but there is no longer a iphoto file . my iphotos are there when I click on them but they then dissapear.All the gfx are visible though along with the resourses and i can not get them away.

    Select one of the thumbnails in iPhoto and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option to be taken to the folder where the original file is located via the Finder.  That way you can see where your library is located.
    Another way to find the library is to launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and when you click on your library in the next window where it's located will be displayed just below the window.
    Or you can download and use the shareware application  Find Any File to search for "Library6.iPhoto" which is a file that is in every iPhoto library package.  Once you find the iPhoto Library you can move it back to your Pictures folder. 
    Then make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Comments on MacBook Pages– how can I make them visible for all users?

    When I use Pages on my MacBook, the comments show up as black text in a yellow box on my computer, but when I export it as a .doc and email it to others, it shows up as white text on yellow for some PC users. This makes it hard for them to read my feedback. Why does it do this? How can I prevent it?

    hello, can you try it with the method described at [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences]?

    There are 2 trash folders one under my email address and one under local folders but the deleted emails do not show up in either.

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

  • Camera keyframes: How can I make them visible? (please read)

    I'm making the camera move around in the x and y dimensions. I've set up the keyframes and sure enough the camera travels along the path I defined.
    Now, what I want to do is have access to the points which define the camera's path, so I can use the pen tool to edit them. Apparently this is not straightforward the way it would be for a solid layer. I can't get them to appear, no matter what I try.
    Yes, the keyframes are there. Yes, the current-time-indicator is atop one of them. Yes, I have the position variable selected, with both keyframes selected. It doesn't matter. I'm missing some non-intuitive step, so that's why I'm here. Please help!

    The view was the issue, evidently. Although it's not intuitive, the problem is that a camera's keyframes can't be seen while the view is set to that camera; you have to find a way to change the view to be behind it. Perhaps they'll fix that oversight in a future update.

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

  • I have pages and keynote on my iPad, how to i make them work on mac air i have bought later

    i have Pages and Keynote, and others of course, on my iPad, how to i make them work on mac air i have bought recently ?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The iPad uses iOS, and your MacBook Air uses OS X, which are different operating systems with different apps.
    iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers) have got two version: for OS X and for iOS. You already purchased Keynote and Pages for iOS, so you can install them in all your iPhones, iPads and iPods touch for free, but not in the MacBook Air, because the iOS version isn't supported. You have to buy Keynote and Pages for OS X in the Mac App Store for your MacBook Air.
    To access to the Mac App Store, press its icon in the Dock or go to  > App Store

  • I do not see my music and videos icon....how do I make them appear?

    I do not see my music and videos icon....how do I make them appear?

    If you can't find the Music and Videos apps on any of your homescreens or app folders, then can you can't find them via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right) ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find them after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
