How to copy a file to a CD-R?

When I last did this on my Macbook AIr and Superdrive years ago it seemed easy. Now, I'm stuck.
I put the blank CD-R into the Superdrive, launched the Disk Utility, click "Burn," Finder opens, but the file I want to copy in the Desktop folder is not highlighted and thus not available.
Also, seems I should see the Superdrive on the Desktop, and I'm not. I look for the Superdrive in Finder and just see Devices > Remote Disk.
I think I'm doing something out of order. If someone could point me to 1-2-3 directions, I'd appreciate it.

Did you try right click (two finger click) on the file in Finder then select Burn to Disk?

  • Does anyone know how to copy my files from my ipod to a different computer?

    Does anyone know how to copy my files from my ipod to a different computer? I tried to do it, but all that it did was erase my files. What i want to to is use my ipod to transfer my files to another computer (which has itunes as well) PLEASE help!

    You will need to enable your iPod for disk use. Then, you should see your iPod in "My Computer" and you can open up your iPod's folder there and drag the files into it. You can store the files on the iPod, then connect it to the other computer and drag-and-drop them from the iPod into the designated directory in that computer. Make sure individual files are not larger than 4 GB.

  • How to copy pdf files from computer to ipad

    how to copy pdf files from computer to ipad

    You can PDFs to the iPad, but first you need one or more apps on the iPad that supports PDFs - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
    Options include free apps such as Apple's iBooks app and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader (which also supports read-only of other documents types).
    For iBooks you can first add the PDFs to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library, and you can then sync them by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) and using the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync them.
    For Adobe Reader adnd GoodReader you can use the file sharing on the Apps tab on the right-hand side to copy them over : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094

  • How to copy/delete file

    hi,
    i need to come out a program, which can copy/delete file from unix directory A to directory B, on the application server.
    does any one have any idea how am i going to code the abap program for this?
    thanks

    > i need to come out a program, which can copy/delete file from unix directory A to directory B, on the application server.
    >
    i am assuming that your Application server is Unix.
    unixcommand cp is used to copy the a file from one directory to another.
    cp /dir/file1 /dir2/file2
    the above command will copy the file1 of dir1 to file2 of dir2.
    for delete use the command rm,
    rm /dir/fiel1
    the above command will remove the file1 from directory dir.

  • How to copy a file from Client to Application Server

    Hello,
    My requirement is user selects a file from Browse button on oracle form - this location is on client side, and have to copy this file on Application server.
    I tried using webutil_file.copy_file function but it gives error - copy_file is not a procedure or is undefined.
    There is another way of Client_to_AS but it needs some changes in configuration files of webutil, which is not allowed in our scenario.
    Source - client machine resident file
    Target- Application server disk location
    So can any one help in this regard?

    Hi Francois,
    Thanks for your suggestion, actually i didnt want to use Client_to_As as client doesnt want to make any changes in any configuration files, no matter how small the change is.
    Anyways we are able to successfully copy the file using Client_to_AS, but one thing that i couldn't understand is why was our webutil_file.copy_file function failing?
    Any hint about this?
    Thanks!

  • How to copy a file from one folder to another folder in Linux

    Hello everyone,
    Oracle forms 11g 11.1.2.0.0
    OS: Oracle Linux
    We use webutil to upload files to the application server from the client machine, and stores them in a folder named JOB_DOCS on the application server (This folder is created as a databse directory too). File types are JPEG, GIF, PDF, TXT, BMP, DOC, XLS etc...
    At a later stage when the user tries to view the uploaded documents, this was not getting displayed on the screen
    on our windows server, when the user clicks on the print button we copy the file from the JOB_DOCS folder to the forms\java folder using the below command
    HOST('COPY ' ||d:\JOB_DOCS\test.pdf||' '||'c:\oracle\middleware\as\forms\java\test.pdf ,NO_SCREEN);
    once the file is under the forms\java folder then it is getting displayed on the screen to print or save, and later we remove the file from forms\java folder.
    But my problem here is, recently we have installed our application on Oracle Linux server, and we have JOB_DOCS folder there, and the users can upload files to this folder also. How can we copy the file test.pdf from JOB_DOCS to forms/java in linux?
    And what could be the reson for the document cannot be accessed from the folder where it is saved? We tried giving folder permissions, adding the folder to PATH variable etc.

    For copying and moving directories you can use the cp and mv commands just like you use them with files. Yeah, I know. If you've already tried to copy a directory with cp, you've probably noticed that cp just complains at you. Probably it says something like cp: omitting directory yadda yadda. You see, the cp command wants you to use the -r option if you want to copy a directory with its contents. The -r means "copy recursively":
    $ cp -r dir1 dir2
    The above creates a directory named dir2 whose contents will be identical to dir1. However, if dir2 already exists, nothing will be overwritten: the directory dir1 will be copied into the dir2 directory under the name dir2/dir1.
    When renaming directories, you use the mv command exactly the same way as with files:
    $ mv dir1 dir2
    When dealing with directories, mv works a bit like cp does. If dir2 doesn't exist, the above will rename dir1 to dir2, but if dir2 exists, the directory dir1 will be moved into the dir2 directory under the name dir2/dir1.

  • How to copy archivelog-files from a ASM instance to another ASM instance

    Hello ,
    our RAC database has to be moved to another Datacenter. The database has a size of several Terrabyte. Will will create a standby database (on a cluster) on the new datacenter (using RMAN backup). Since the RMAN backup takes rather long we would like to copy the archive logs to the new datacenter. Since the archivelog-files are stored on a dirskgroup of an asm instance we have the following question:
    - how can the archivelog files get copied from the current location to the new location?

    As a matter of fact the archivelogs are not backuped on a filesystem. If so we would copy them from the source to the destination host (that's easy).
    The question is "how to get them copied from one ASM diskgroup to another ASM diskgroup". RMAN might be a good solution - but we would need to
    figure that out...
    We talking about 100 GB of archivelogs a day - therefore we don't want to wait until the standby database is configured and online. To have the archivelogs
    already on the new host in the new datacenter would save alot of time.What is ASM version?
    The copy is peer to peer? (i.e Can you copy files from one ASM to another directly?)

  • How to copy referenced files into iPhoto library

    I have a mixture of referenced files and copies in my iPhoto library. I changed now the preferences to always copy files when importing new photos. But, how can I copy the old referenced photos into my library (they are all over the place)? Is there anything like "Copy all files to the library"?

    csmun
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    But, how can I copy the old referenced photos into my library (they are all over the place)? Is there anything like "Copy all files to the library"?
    I'm afraid there isn't - you'll need to do it the hard way I'm afraid.
    What might help is to go into the Library/Originals folder and examine the aliases there. Right click on an alias and select 'Show Original' A finder window will pop open with the Original File. Then replace the alias with the original.

  • ASM lost disk, rebuilt disk grp. No dbid, how to copy ctl file to ASM?

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to help out on what is turning out to be a real challenge.
    This looks to be Oracle 10.1.0.4.0 (version showed by rman and sqlplus).
    There is ASM...but it was set to redundancy of EXTERN, but not really external redundancy. This is a test box, and I guess they were just trying to use what disks they had....I dunno, it was set up long before I got here.
    Out of all the instances I've had to look at....for this one server, I have no DBID's documented.
    This is a HP-UX box....they replaced the bad ASM drive, and I rebuilt the DATADG disk group.
    RMAN settings...well, show all just gives defaults, as that I don't have a control file in place. This was, however, set up to autobackup control files and spfiles...but I don't know the DBID, and can't figure how to find the DBID....
    I did, however, find the snapshot controlfile...and hoping I could use that.
    I am, however, stumped as to how to copy this copy of the control file, into ASM.
    I have found and old pfile that I can use to start the instance. I have started it nomount with this.
    I looked at the parameter for control file and found:
    SQL> show parameter control_file
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    control_file_record_keep_time integer 7
    control_files string +DATADG/instance/control01.ctl
    , +DATADG/instance/control02.c
    tl, +DATADG/instance/control03
    .ctl, +DATADG/instance/control
    04.ctl
    So, I know where they are to go. This is such an old version, I guess there was no ASMCMD...I can't find that command.
    I'm thinking, if I could find a way to copy this snapshot of the control file onto ASM in the old places it was, I could startup up the database, and it would then be able to restore and recover with the RMAN backups?
    Any suggestions?
    cayenne

    Just a quick update on this.
    I was able to find a snapshot of the controlfile on disk....
    I went into asm and recreated the directory where the controlfiles were kept, and used rman to copy the snapshot controlfile to where the originals were kept:
    export ORACLE_SID=+ASM
    connect with sqlplus and do:
    SQL> alter diskgroup DATADG add directory '+DATADG/instance';
    Diskgroup altered.
    Then in RMAN:
    restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control01.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
    restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control02.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
    restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control03.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
    restore controlfile to '+DATADG/instance/control04.ctl' from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1/dbs/snapcf_INSTANCE.f';
    I then got out of RMAN...back into sqlplus and mounted the database instance:
    SQL> connect / as sysdba
    Connected.
    SQL> alter database mount;
    Database altered.
    Checking to see backups:

  • How to copy a file from a folder on macbook pro

    ive been trying to copy a file (a video file) from my finder to my external hard drive, drag it and stuff, but i keep getting this forbidden sign.
    i'd love to get some help.
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Normally this happens if the hard drive is either formatted in an incompatible format (like NTFS which is read only) or if you do not have permissions to write to the hard drive.
    You can check the format in disk utility by selecting the external hard drive partition in the left and then down the bottom it will show the format. It should either be Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or MS-DOS FAT. If it is not you will need to erase the drive to format it.
    You can check the drive permissions by right clicking (control clicking) the icon for the external hard drive, and selecting "Get Info". down the bottom in sharing and permissions, check the box that says "Ignore Ownership"
    Hope this helps.

  • How to copy a file from one location to another ???

    Hi,
    I have a file ('D:/Pictures/1.jpg') and I want to copy this 1.jpg file to a location called 'D:/Folder1'. I tried the WebUtil_File.copy_file function, but it does not work. it returns false boolean.
    I am using windows xp and oracle 10g.
    The webutil configurations are also completed.
    This D: drive is the one which has oracle 10g application server installed.
    Am I doing anything wrong or missed?. I need to complete this urgently. but it does not work.
    Or any other way to copy a file from one place to given any path?. After this I have to renaming (may be using Rename_File function) the copied file. Please advice me.

    An alternative could be HOST command, that calls OS prompt to run a command in the server and then return the focus to the Forms:
    HOST ('copy D:/Pictures/1.jpg D:/Folder1/1.jpg');
