IChat have file transfer manager?

Does iChat in Leopard AND Tiger have a file transfer manager in case file transfer gets interrupted? Thanks

Well this is what I'm trying to do:
-If something happens and disconnects and we later come back to our computers and see that it failed, can we resume from where the file got disconnected instead of starting all over again?
I do believe this is possible. As long as you don't move the file or anything like that, it should continue where it left off. The person sending the file has to send it again, and the person on the other end must accept it. It won't start automatically (unless you somehow tell iChat to auto accept files).

  • Slow Transfer Speeds For File Transfer Manager 5.0 Build 0032

    I have a 20Mbit internet connection. When I download from the Microsoft download site I can get files downloading at reported speeds of up to 1.7 Mbytes per second.
    When downloading from the TechNet Benefits section I have to use the Transfer Manager and I can only get speeds that vary between 30-80 Kbytes per second. Rarely any faster.
    I am using XPPro & IE7 straight out onto the Internet via my router / firewall. No proxy server.
    What can I do to speed the process up or bypass the File Download Manager?
    Regards.

  • IChat GTalk File Transfer Problems

    Hey guys,
    I've noticed that my file transfers keep failing via GTalk. If I drag a picture into the chat window, it looks as though it's going to start sending... but it never does, not network activity at all....
    I've found the following two threads:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1502231
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9449766
    But with no real answers.... Anyone able to assist?

    Hi,
    I managed to get hold of EZ Jim.
    We did some extensive testing from Leopard to Snow Leopard and back and from Snow Leopard to Snow Leopard.
    Results.
    1) Leopard GoogleTalk ID to Snow Leopard GoogleTalk ID did not work (Me to him)
    Tried logging out of other Jabber IDs
    2) Leopard Jabber ID to Snow Leopard GoogleTalk ID also did not work.
    Logged out of GoogleTalk in iChat and still no luck.
    3) Found I was still logged in to the GoogleMail web page.
    No Change on Logging out of Google completely repeated 1) and 2)
    We also tried dropping the file on the Buddy's Name in the Buddy List, startng File Sending from the Buddies menu and dropping in a text Chat plus using VIdeo Chat and dropping it on the Box that appears there.
    4) EZ Jim could send me files
    5) Both EZ Jim And I have the Mac Firewall On Normally but turning it off at both end (with tests with only my end set to Allow All) also did not work.
    8) On my Leopard Computer I run Little Snitch.
    This was turned Off completely
    6) Along the way we also deleted, re-added and re-authorised each other.
    7) Changed to Login via my MacBook Pro Snow Leopard to Snow Leopard.
    AIM File Sending from my end worked (As a test of file)
    GoogleTalk to GoogleTalk IDs did not work from me to him.
    Another Jabber ID was tried without improvement.
    8) EZ Jim could still Send me Files and Pic-in-Text chats (Direct IMs)
    On My MAcBook Pro and the Jabber Account I have there I could not send files to my GoogleTalk ID which was different to my Leopard computer (This may have been the Server Involved).
    Summary.
    Anything over Jabber whatever the ID or starting method did not get to EZ Jim.
    Anything he sent me worked.
    As I said My Modem is also my router and is doing UPnP.
    I had partial success on the same computer (to myself).
    I have yet to find the time to Check Mac to Mac at my end.
    I did reboot iChat on my Leopard to make sure it dropped all links to Servers after turning Off the GoogleTalk ID but there was no improvement.
    Deleting and re-adding a Buddy and Re-authorising them may prove to have some improvement and would be a first step.
    I trust EZ Jim's firewall and/or routing set up is not the cause.
    Tests to do.
    Mac to Mac at my end.
    Me to EZ Jim from my Google Talk on different day and reboot of computer to clear any network/login issues with Google and/or iChat IDs
    What is clear is that it works.
    What is not clear is what to do when it does not.
    I will keep you posted.

  • Proxy Server in File Transfer System

    Hi, I need to write out a file transfer system through a proxy server for my project
    All the while i was writing a file transfer system directly from client to server without any security issue
    Anyway, the scope is given as below, and i know it needs the JSSE package to come out a SSLSocket and SSLServerSocket.
    The question is...
    1. can i use NIO with JSSE included?
    2. how to come out a java proxy server? is there any tutorial i can read through?
    The scope is given as below
    1) Proxy server
    * perform tunning and keep the linking between file transfer host and client
    * authenticate the file transfer client using CA certificate to establish SSL connection
    * Once authorised, need to establish another SSL connection to host engine
    2) File Transfer Manager at Client
    * To initiate SSL connection to proxy server
    * To open two type of connection: command and file connection
    * The command connection is always keep alive
    * For the file connection, the system required to re-open another connection after send file to host
    * Auto-reconnect to server when the connection is down
    * Re-handshake the SSL connection when the channel is inactive for sometime
    3) File Transfer Manager at host
    * To authenticate the proxy server and authorise the client before establish the connection
    * Manage the connection
    * request to client to open new connection (by sending command) when there is no file connection available to send file to client
    * Request for re-handshake the SSL connection when the channel is inactive for sometime

    Hi,
    It is a new feature of SMB3 named SMB MultiChannel, which helps copy files through multiple NICs. 
    Detailed information please see:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/josebda/archive/2012/05/13/the-basics-of-smb-multichannel-a-feature-of-windows-server-2012-and-smb-3-0.aspx
    As mentioned you can disable or enable it with following steps:
    2.2. Disabling
    SMB Multichannel is enabled by default and there is typically no need to disable it. 
    However, if you want to disable SMB Multichannel (for testing purposes, for instance), you can use the following PowerShell cmdlets:
    On the SMB server side:
    Set-SmbServerConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $false
    On the SMB client side:
    Set-SmbClientConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $false
    Note: Disabling the feature on either the client or the server prevent the systems from using it.
    2.3. Re-enabling
    You can re-enable SMB Multichannel after you disabled it by using:
    On the SMB server side:
    Set-SmbServerConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $true
    On the SMB client side:
    Set-SmbClientConfiguration -EnableMultiChannel $true
    Note: You need to enable the feature on both the client or the server to start using it again.

  • IChat File Transfer/Video Chat won't work... :(

    Hi Everyone,
    I am trying to get ichat to allow file transfers/video chatting on my Mac, I have a feeling that the setup through the routers that we have are not allowing it to function as it is constantly giving me errors. My set up is a Cable Modem hooked into a Netgear WGR614 v6 and then an ethernet wire running from that router to a Linksys WRT54G v8. I have the WRT54G set up with the following settings:
    IP: 192.168.1.136
    Subnet: 255.255.255.0
    Gateway 192.168.1.1
    Static DNS 1 and 2: Are my IP's DNS servers
    Static DNS 3 is blank
    Local IP address is .199 with a subnet of 255.255.255.128
    I have DHCP enabled starting at .200 with 30 users
    My computer is also set up statically at port .233.
    The Netgear WGR614 v6 is set up with the following settings:
    Get IP/DNS dynamically from ISP
    DHCP Range from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.51. Router is on a subnet of 255.255.255.0 the linksys is set up statically to the Netgear
    SO, this brings me to my issue, I am trying to get ichat file transfer/video to work, I have followed the instructions for setting up portforwarding from portforward.com for ichat on both the netgear and the linksys. On the linksys, i set the IP address to forward to as my computers (.233)
    On the netgear, i set the ip address to forward to as 192.168.1.136 (the static IP of the linksys).
    Anyway, I am hoping someone can point out what I am doing wrong as I am still getting this error: An AIM error has occurred. Unable to talk directly to your buddy. I am also getting this error: An AIM service error occurred. The server message was: Serv:RequestTimeout.
    My OS X firewall is off.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!!

    Hi,
    I am not sure I have understood your Networking here.
    You say the Netgear is getting an IP (Via DHCP) from the ISP.
    You go onto say it is at 192.168.1.1
    It issues IP addresses from 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.51 and the Linksys has an IP outside this range at 192.168.1.136
    Your computer is at 192.168.1.233
    As both devices are using the 192.168.1.xxx group and doing DHCP (even with restricted groups) how does the computer know which one to connect to ?
    You should be able to change the group that each device is using for it's own network (I would suggest the Netgear)
    You should also turn Off DHCP (to the LAN) in the Netgear so it's own network (subnet) only goes as far as the Linksys.
    Similarly in the Linksys make sure DHCP is Off or change the Mac to use Manually (Static) with DHCP.
    Both devices can do UPnP found in the Administration tab in the Linksys and the WAN page of the Netgear.
    Turn Off/disable all Port Forwarding in both devices.
    It may also pay to copy across the Linksys and Computer the DNS server IPs from the Netgear.

  • File Transfer Error Between Ichat 2.1 and Ichat 3

    I am trying to send my brother some files. He has an Ibook G4 and so do I. He is running Ichat 3 on Tiger and I am running Ichat 2.1. Both of us are using a wireless connection through our own personal cable modems. He can send me files and I can accept them and get them without problems. Every time I try to send him a file, before it starts, we get an error 'File Transfer Error' file name not transferred.
    He says he has no problems receiving files from other buddies of all different types of operating systems.
    I don't recall having any problems sending or receiving from any of my other buddies either.
    Is this just an OS X.3 vs OS X.4 issue? Or is there something weird with my Ibook?
    Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks,
    -Chris
    IBook G4 1 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   640 MB RAM

    Hi cjmagnuss,
    Can your brother send files to other people.
    It sounds like it might be his end.
    File Transfers happen on Port 5190 on the UDP protocol.
    Some modems and router have problems if they have to list Protocols when Port Forwading.
    Is this the case for him ?

  • IChat File Transfer - yikes.

    I'm looking for something that will allow me to transfer files over ip mac to mac. iChat isn't cutting it when transferring rather large files.. such as an episode of south park.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    transfer files over ip mac to mac.
    You might want to take a look at iVisit
    Mac/PC, Multi-party (up to 16) multi-way (all live) video, audio, chat, messaging, file transfer, desktop sharing and more ...
    It works on a wide range of hardware and has lower bandwidth/CPU requirements than iChat.

  • IChat File Transfer port issue (can't listen to port 5190 and 7777)

    Greentings ladies and gentlemen,
    I need help opening port 5190 and 7777 for ichat server file transfers. As for now, my situation can be described as below:
    (1)I have a ichat server in a mac mini(2010, newest model as for today) running a fully updated version of MACOSX SERVER 10.6 inside a lab in my university.
    (2)As for the ichat server itself, text, voice, video between 2 or more persons are all working great. As for clients the latest version of ichat and pidgin(text only) are being used. The only problem is the lack of file transfer between ichat clients.
    (3)The server is behind a router (YAMAHA RTX 1200). I am 100% sure that the router is correctly configured to allow packets in and out of the port 5190 and 7777, among the other necessary ports. All the other ports are open and working correctly. I also manually disabled the firewall of a windows7 laptop and tested packet transfers on both ports and both worked fine.
    (4)As I said before, the server is inside my university lab. I made sure that all ports between 1023~65535 are open in the univesity gateway/backbone network.
    Bellow are firewall(IPFW) settings before flushing (tried configuring using both GUI and CUI, and both returned the same results)

    As you can see my firewall settings are not being reflected on the actual server firewall.
    Is there any way I could just force the server into listening the port?
    If necessary I can post screenshots of every ichat server/firewall configuration tab from the Server Admin GUI.
    Thanks in advance for any help/support.

    First off, realize there is no association between your firewall rules and netstat.
    Just because your firewall is letting traffic in that does not mean it will appear in your netstat.
    netstat -a will show you a list of ports that are in use - i.e. there is some process listening to (or writing to) that port. That is independent of whether the firewall permits the traffic (e.g. the firewall could well allow traffic in on 5190, but unless there's a process listening to 5190 you won't see it in the netstat).
    Secondly, IIRC iChat file transfers are client-to-client therefore it might not be your server, or your server's firewall or your server's network that's the issue - the client will need to have a firewall configured to allow incoming traffic from other iChat clients.
    Does that help shed some light on things? (it isn't clear whether your post is referring to the server or the client side of things).

  • Ichat 4 + Google Talk + file transfer

    Hi!
    I'm trying to send files from iChat to iChat both with GoogleTalk
    accounts without success.
    The file transfer window displays that it is preparing but this goes
    on forever. At the receiver the file transfer windows says
    calculating.
    Both are using 10.5.2 with an up to date iChat. Firewall is off.
    ScreenSharing and Audio/Video is working fine.
    I tested it with .Mac accounts and there file transfering is working
    without any problems.
    Thanks for any hint to solve this problem. It is really bothering me.
    Cheers,
    Stefan

    I've tested this between my Google Talk account and my Jabber account. I used iChat on my Mac Mini to connect to iChat on my MacBook. Both are running 10.5.2. I found that for Jabber file transfers there are two phases. In phase 1 the Chat clients negotiate the file transfer parameters using the server as an intermediary. In phase 2 the receiver uses TCP to connect to the port from phase 1. If the connection is successful the file transfer begins. If it fails the sender can offer another IP address/port for transfer and the receiver can try again. This goes on until the sender has exhausted his list of available IP addresses and ports.
    Problems with file transfer will usually happen at phase 1. At the end of phase 1 the Chat client that wishes to send the file sends a message that details the IP address and port for the receiver. The receiver should try to connect to this IP address and port and get the file. This will fail if there is either a NAT or a Firewall between the receiver and the sender. A NAT botches the transfer because iChat doesn't do anything to try to figure out what it's real address is. A firewall botches the transfer by discarding the inbound TCP SYN packets that initiate the communication between sender and receiver. This is made worse by the fact that as sender iChat doesn't use the same TCP port for transfer all the time.
    In the end file transfer will work for two chat clients that can deliver packets between each other. Two people on the same LAN or on two seperate addresses that are neither NATed nor Firewalled. I've also got this going for people who have a VPN. iChat doesn't help you here. In fact it makes things worse by not choosing a constant port which means that arranging for transfer in your firewall policy is problematic. Ideally a chat client like Psi can be made to work. Psi allows the user to specify both the port and IP address specified in transfer.

  • Managed File Transfer - Cannot create any artifacts

    Hi
    I have issues creating anything in MFT. When I am in the Design tab, the create icon is grey.
    I have installed Fusion Middleware Infrastructure and Managed File Transfer and made alle necessary configurations.
    Can anyone tell me what might be wrong?

    OK, I've got everything to work - so long as I 'Print' docs to PDF rather than clicking on the PDF conversion icons (if I click on these icons, I just get an error).
    But if I print to PDF, everything now works - I've even managed to solve the Word problem - I think it was a faulty Word doc for some reason.  I found a useful document which told me how to set up all the settings for Acrobat Distiller (http://mydocs.epri.com/docs/CorporateDocuments/WorkingWithEPRI/CreatingAcrobatPDFs.pdf).
    If you know how to make the PDF conversion icons work (it must be something simple) that'll save me having to print each time, it would be great, but I can survive without this.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • I have an old and new mac and used transfer manager to put the old mac on the new so that i have both users on one computer but now I can only log in as the new and as guest so cant access my old computer docs on this newer mac.  Help!

    Hello I have just sold my old macbook and so transfered all my data to my newer macbook using transfer manager.  This allowed my to login on the newer computer under either the old or new username so I could access both computers' data on my newer computer.  Last night that worked but today I can only access my newer user and a guest user.  Where did my old user name and all the data go after the transfer?  Help please! I have to give the buyer the old computer today!

    I am not familiar with "transfer manager." Did you perhaps use the Migration Assistant? What operating system is installed on your new computer?
    If you look in your hard drive, in the Users folder, do you see a folder with the name from your user on your old computer?
    Best of luck.

  • I have a Power Mac G4 (2004) and want to transfer all my files to a new MacBook Pro 15.4". Can this be done thru firewire cable or do I have to transfer to an external Firewire 800 hard drive first?

    I have a Power Mac G4 (2004) and want to transfer all my files to a new MacBook Pro 15.4". Can this be done thru firewire cable or do I have to transfer to an external Firewire 800 hard drive first?

    Do it with a Firewire cable (buy a 800/400 adapter if you need it) - the USB transfer takes a much longer time.
    Start up your old PowerMac G4 holding down the "T" key, for target disk mode.
    On your new MacBook Pro open "Migration Assistant" in your utilities folder.
    Connect the 2 computers by firewire cable and follow the prompts in Migration Assistant.
