Import Server detects file in Ready folder but does not process

I have a problem where MDIS detects a file in the ready folder, but it does not launch the import:
2772 2008/10/22 23:37:52.240   1.xml
Source file retrieval: Delta: 0.001451 seconds.

2772 2008/10/22 23:40:28.507   1.xml
Source file retrieval: Delta: 0.006276 seconds.
The log file shows the above. You can see it detects the file is there, but since it does not launch the import it does not process the file or even move it to the exception or archive folders. I have confirmed settings in the MDIS.ini file, e.g. password, etc. I can import the same file using Import Manager without any errors.
Please help!

Hi Jitesh,
Your suggestion to try a different file type yielded positive reults. I created a simple tab delimited text file and import map and changed the existing Port from using XML based on the MATMAS05 schema to using the text file. The log shows:

The text file was immediately picked up and imported. This thus proves that (1) MDIS is functioning, (2) user / password is correct. Unfortunately you will also see from the log above that when I changed the port back to run on XML the problem has not been resolved.
Any ideas?

IMovie '11 How do I recover a project that appears within the IMovie Projects folder but does not show in the Project Library?

I have had my MBP for just over 3 months now! Yes, I made the switch and up until now I have been quite happy.
I now have my Time Capsule, Apple TV running and am generally getting used to life as a Mac user.............even bought Aperture and loaded all the family photos. Now time to make some Travel movies.
I have been working on a particular IMovie project for a few weeks now. Size is 365MB. Yesterday I closed IMovie and when accessing later that project is not available in the Project Library window. It does appear in the IMovie Projects folder but I cannot open it. I have copied the file to DVD just in case. All up I have 4 Projects, the other 3 are practice files, smaller but they do appear in the Project Library.
I have scoured the bulletin boards and tried many suggested fixes to no avail. Main suggestion was to remove the following files from Library/Preferences
com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
com.apple.iApps.plist
However, this did not sort out my problem. In the end I put back the original files.
Does anyone have a straightforward fix for my problem or is this one of those ongoing issues that that needs Apple's attention.
After all the file is there with the others. They are available.
I realise that I can restore from Time Capsule but I am missing the last three days thanks to 'drop out'.
Thanks.......

Yes, considering we have an ongoing 'glich' within an Apple program with no obvious solution, we should be able to direct it straight to an Apple rep. I will peruse this possibility when I get a moment.
You can report the problem by providing feedback to Apple. In the iMovie app, from the menu select iMovie > Provide iMovie Feedback. This will take you to an Apple page where you can complete a form and submit it to Apple.
The fix for this will probably turn out to be simple/easy.....................so why doesn't Apple comment and/or address it????
Other than the forum moderators, Apple doesn't normally monitor these forums, nor make comments on posts. So, it's up to us to report the problem to them directly (using the feedback form mentioned above).
As the problem has affected me just the one time (touch wood), I haven't bothered to report it as yet. But, after seeing your posts on this, I'm now reconsidering that. Something must be triggering it. My system is in pretty good shape, so I'm guessing it must be a glitch of some sort, either in Mountain Lion or in the iMovie app itself. Perhaps it's a 3rd party app causing the problem? It doesn't give us much confidence now, in that we may start worrying about losing other projects.
A good practice is to duplicate the project from time to time (something I'll be doing more of), although Time Machine backups also provide the necessary security. To duplicate, in Project Library view (where all the projects are listed) click on the project name so that it is highlighted, then select File > Duplicate Project. Alternatively, right-click (or Control-click) on the project name and select Duplicate Project from the pop-up menu. Of course, you may already know this. Duplicating probably won't guarantee that the copy will not also disappear from the Project Library, but is worth doing anyway.
As I mentioned in the post I linked to earlier, when the problem arose with my iMovie project I was using ProRes 422 clips I had imported from a Final Cut Pro X Event. My immediate thought was that ProRes 422 had caused the problem. But this of course may have been coincidental - reinforced now by your experience, where you are probably working with Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) clips.
Anyway, glad to hear that you've recovered your project through Time Machine. Unfortunately, I had to start from scratch as I had Time Machine turned off during my editing sessions (that's a story for another day).

Mp2 files plays in iTunes, but does not transfer to my iPod

Hi, I have been recording digital radio programs using my Cyrus DAB 8.0. The recordings are on a SD card and are in mp2 format. These easily transfer into iTunes, but do not transfer to my iPod. How can I overcome this. I guess I have to convert the mp2 files, but I do not want to lose quality. The files are sampled at 192KHz. Would they play on an Apple TV? Any help and suggestions please?

You can convert your MP2 files into Apple Loseless. Those files are playable on the iPod and also its a uncompressed format. To do that, you'll have to change some preferences. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced>Import. You can change the conversion format there. To convert the songs, select all the songs that you want to convert. Then option click on the selection. There is the convert to Apple Lossless option. And you can delete the old files if you want to.

Upload files appears to work, but does not

Hi all,
I've set up Admin access to our iTunesU site and everything that should be working up to this point appears to be working...
EXCEPT
when trying to upload files to the one default course, either into the generic 'Tab1' tab or a newly created tab, it is not working. It appears to go through all of the motions: we hit Add Track, select the file (I've tried m4v, mov, aac etc) and it will say 'In Queue'. After a moment it will display that all of the file had been uploaded (for instance, 3.7 of 3.7 MB). The prograss bar does not look like it appears properly (it's sort of half-there), but I am not getting any sort of error, and the files never appear in any of the tabs. What are we missing? Is this just not available yet? All the other posts I've read indicate that this should be doable at this point.

Dual 2GHz G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Sorry -- I should have specified that. The files are all MP3s.
They were captured from a Logitech USB microphone using Audacity 1.2.4b (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) and exported using the LAME library for Mac OS X (http://spaghetticode.org/lame/) on an Intel iMac running Mac OS X 10.4.6.
The ID3 tags of the files were then edited using iTunes 6.0.4 on a PowerBook G4 running Mac OS X 10.4.6.
The problem files (you can see them in our site as "ITS Coffee Break for 62806" and "ITS Coffee Break for 61906" do not display the following track information within the site:
* Name (displays file name instead)
* Artist
* Album (overwritten with the tab name "Course - ITS Coffee Break", presumably because of the default track preferences"
If I do a "Get Info" on the file from the track list, I see that the following meta information is not available:
* Name
* Artist
* Year
* Album (same as above)
Interestingly, the "disc number" field, which was not entered in our metadata, appears with the value "1" on the site.
In the file that did upload properly -- "ITS Coffee Break for 6/13/2006" lost its "Year' meta data, but the rest of the fields display their information properly.
One final note -- if I download one of the problem tracks, some of the meta information comes back -- on "ITS Coffee Break for 61906", the Artist and Year fields were filled in, but the name field was incorrect.
I hope this helps. I plan on experimenting with an AAC file next to see if it makes a difference.

Lightroom 5 - JPEG files saved to folder but did not import into catalog

I am using Lightroom 5. My camera is set to save each image as RAW & JPEG. At import, I chose to "Copy as DNG". In the Lightroom catalog only the DNG files are imported. However, in the folder there are DNG files and JPEG files. Why didn't my JPEG images import to the catalog?

Because you probably haven't selected the option on the General Tab of the Preferences to "Treat JPEG files next to raw files as separate photos".

Sibelius Scorch Plugin runs , is in C:/program Files/SibeliusSoftware/scorch/Netscape folder, but does not install in firefox??

The s dll's in the Netscape folder are NPsibelius, pdfnetc, andScorchPDFwrapper

Probably not the best idea to install a program that needs to install plugins for Firefox, while Firefox is running. Have you restarted Firefox yet, and then checked to see if that plugin appears in Tools > Addons > Plugins ?

I am not being able to play sound when I import a .MTS file from my folder

I am not being able to play sound when I import a .MTS file from my folder on my sequence bar of my Premiere Pro CS6. Even if I use my Media Browser to import the file, the video plays fine, but the audio is disabled it seems. I don't know what to do since I have used .MTS files before without hassle on CS5.5. It is quite frustrating. What can I do?

Hi debesh05,
Please mention the Operating System that you are using and also make and model of the Camera that was used to capture those clips. Also, try to make another folder with the same name in the same location where the .MTS files are and move all the clips into the new folder and then try to import the files again using Media Browser in Premiere Pro CS6. If this doesn't work then make a copy of one file and rename it as .M2TS and then import that single file into Premiere Pro CS6. Please update if either of the solution works for you.

What would the Smart Collection criteria be to isolate files in a folder but NOT in a collection?

What would the Smart Collection criteria be to isolate files in a folder but NOT in a collection?

or else FAR more simply,
though in practice, the difficulty may lie with how fuzzily or precisely the search text used, applies.
QUESTION
I'd be very curious to know, does anyone know how to search on a section of a full folder path rather than on the individual parts of that?
My folders are structured by LR at import, as (e.g.) 2014 / 01 / 27 for 27th Jan 2014.
So if I wanted to use a Smart Collection to search for (among other things) images in July 2013, I can search multiply on includes all of "2013" and "07" but that also throws up in my case, images which were taken on the 7th day of other months during 2013. I could search on a date range, though that's a little more laborious, or else do what I otherwise prefer, which is by keywords and other attributes plus (possibly) just year.
If I could search on folder path includes the string "2013/07" this would work fine. But I haven't found a syntax that does that (yet, assuming it is possible at all).

Thanks to cor-el for the suggestion given in the link. Sadly I have to report:
1) It is not a bookmark problem and it makes no difference whether I put
www.adobe.com or 192.150.18.117 in the address bar.
2) Cookies are allowed and there are no exceptions set
3) All cookies have been deleted
4) network.http.sendRefererHeader is already set to 2
That deals with the items in the linked document.
Additional information:
5) I can get into the adobe site from a clean "in memory" installation of PuppyLinux using Seamonkey using the same router and dhcp setup.
6) un-installing all Mozilla products - rebooting and re-installing makes no difference even when I remove the mozilla folder from docs&settings.
so as I said in previous post (as annonymous) not a lot makes sense.
Bear in mind that I have no problem running tracert in a command window

Importing All the files from a folder at a time

Hi....
Can any body tell me how to import set of files from a folder into IDM.
It is becoming very difficult to import the files one after other....
Waiting for Reply....
Thanks in advance..........

We used an ant script to build an XML file that will contain the files. The script is configured to use the folder structure of our CVS repository.
We'd checkout our XML module and then run the build script and import the resulting init file.
Code to the script is below -- caveat emptor. You'll need to change the folder structure to suit your own environment.

You want a "Drop Box" style folder. You should be able to achieve this by creating a folder and giving it permissions similar to the "Drop Box" folder in your users Public Folder (i.e. write only permissions.)

The weird thing is, it worked before. I encoded all the videos previously and had them all listed and didn't encounter this problem, but I noticed I'd forgotten to decomb/detelecine the videos so I deleted everything and re-encoded it all. AFter filling the tags out and setting poster frames again I was thinking of making life easier by just pasting the same artwork for every episode, so I did, but didn't like the results so I deleted it again (I selected every video, used Get Info and pasted the artwork that way).
I think it was after this that the problem started to occur. In any case I've been through every episode and made sure the name, series, episode and episode id fields are all filled in with incremental values and they are. I even made sure the Sort Name field was filled in on every video. But this didn't work either.
So, thinking another restart was needed I deleted every video again. Re-encoded them all, again. Set the tags for every video and poster frame again. Finished it all off nicely, checked cover flow and was highly annoyed to find it was STILL showing the same two pieces of art work for every video as shown in that image I posted.
Ultimately, I wouldn't care so much that cover flow is screwing up like this as I always intended to sort by program anyway so it would only ever display one piece of artwork for an entire series of videos, however where-as when it was working it picked the artwork for the first episode of a series to display, its instead picking one of the latter episodes. I can't seem to find any way of choosing what artwork I want displayed.

I am trying to import my bookmarks from IE and have read the instructions of how to do this, but the Import button under File is grayed out and will not let me import. Any ideas?
