Items In Use for File Transfers

Whenever I transfer several files at a time (7+ or so), I get the error "The operation cannot be complete because the item "(insert filename here)" is in use."
I have tried the lsof command in Terminal with no results. This happens with different files (mainly pictures, as I transfer those in large amounts) and from both local drives and card readers or USB drives. The files are usually being moved to a network attached storage that is in the Finder exceptions for indexing. The files aren't always new, so I do not think finder is indexing them. If I click "ok" (and in doing so cancel the transfer) and start it again, it works just fine (until it decides to hit another file and repeats the process).
It's a very annoying little problem because it forces me to micromanage large file transfers. Any ideas?

As a workaround consider
ditto
Sometimes I get a scrap file in the trash that cannot be deleted for the same reason, although I find no obvious cause. Sometimes it's the mail app and a stray RSS file, but not always. Even then I have to shutdown and restart mail, which is really not acceptable to me.
Usually a logout/in unhooks it but that's not a solution either.
You might try transferring the files using a new account with no apps running or even installed other than the defaults.

Item category used for third party

Gurus,
need to know the item category used for third party process and its determination, kindly help.
thanks
SP

Dear Partasarathy,
there are three different processes within the third-party.
The usual third-party process (the delivery will be made directly from the third-party partner). The item category here is TAS in the standard.
The individual purchase order (the delivery will be done from third-party partner to SD-partner and then the normal delivery will be created from the sales order). The item category here is TAB in the standard.
The ALE-process is the third-party process where the purchase order (not only the purchase requisition) will be created after saving the sales order. The item category here is ALES in the standard.
I hope, this additional info helps you further.
Kind regards,

Use Ethernet for file transfers to iMac?

Hi -- In earlier Powerbook use I used to like using the "Target Disk Mode" to drag files from my laptop to my desktop machines, but of course my new MacBook has no firewire.
is there anyway to connect my MacBook to my iMac using an ethernet cable, to drag sel;ect files from the portable to the desktop machine? I've got some multi-gig files I need to shuttle back and forth occasionally, so it's pretty tedious to chug along via wireless . . .
Any other suggestions for most convenient means of shuttling big files?
Thanks

Yes, you can use Ethernet to transfer files via File Sharing. If you have a home network then you can share files over your home network whether it be wired or wireless. You can also create a computer-to-computer network by connecting two computers directly via Ethernet cable.
Select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "file sharing." Search for "network" to find an article on computer-to-computer networks.

Using Time Machine backup for file transfers

Hello,
I have successfully used TM to backup my MBP.
How can I use the files on my external hard drive that were put there by TM to transfer files to another computer. I want to plug my external into another computer and access the backup on the harddrive, as if it were a large flash drive.

You cannot. You can use the drive to backup the other computer, but I don't believer it's possible to restore files from the other backup library.
A TM backup is not a simple file copy. You cannot just access files as though you had copied them to another drive. If that's your intent then TM is not the proper tool. Instead you should clone the drive using a third-party backup tool such as SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner - VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Then the files on the backup drive can be accessed just like any other drive.

DT and MT definition to be used for File Content Conversion

Hi FCC gurus
would just like to ask, my scenario is Flat File (fixed length) to IDoc
the flat file structure is below:
HHeader.......(Fixed Field until 427characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
DFile ......... (Fixed Field until 404characters)
DText ......... (Fixed Field until 235characters)
DFile ......... (Fixed Field until 404characters)
DText ......... (Fixed Field until 235characters)
-------No Space, for illustration only PO2--------
HHeader........ (Fixed Field until 427characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
DFile ......... (Fixed Field until 404characters)
DText ......... (Fixed Field until 235characters)
DFile ......... (Fixed Field until 404characters)
DText ......... (Fixed Field until 235characters)
-------No Space, for illustration only PO3--------

HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
HText ......... (Fixed Field until 234characters)
DFile ......... (Fixed Field until 404characters)
DText ......... (Fixed Field until 235characters)
DFile ......... (Fixed Field until 404characters)
DText ......... (Fixed Field until 235characters)
where:
HHeader = Header
HText = Header Text
DFile = Order Detail File (Line Item)
DText = Order Detail File Text (Line Item Text)
As shown above, 1 flat file can contain 3 purchase orders in it structured exactly like the structure definition above.
I need to map this to 1 IDoc for each purchase order
so my target structure should be:
- ORDERS05
   - IDoc (PO1)
   - IDoc (PO2)
   - IDoc (PO3)
Of course I need to use FCC for this, I'm just a little confused on how I will define the Data Type and Message Type for this.
For the Data Type should i define it like this:
DT_ORDERS
   HHeader-Field1 (Element)
   HHeader-Field2 (Element)
   HHeader-Field3 (Element)
   HText-Field1 (Element)
   HText-Field2 (Element)
   HText-Field3 (Element)
   DFile-Field1 (Element)
   DFile-Field2 (Element)
   DFile-Field3 (Element)
   DText-Field1 (Element)
   DText-Field2 (Elemen
t)
OR
should i define the Data Type like this:
DT_ORDERS
    HHeader (Element)
       HHeader-Field1 (Sub Element)
       HHeader-Field2 (Sub Element)
       HHeader-Field3 (Sub Element)
    HText (Element)
       HText-Field1 (Sub Element)
       HText-Field2 (Sub Element)
       HText-Field3 (Sub Element)
    DFile (Element)
       DFile-Field1 (Sub Element)
       DFile-Field2 (Sub Element)
       DFile-Field3 (Sub Element)
    DText (Element)
       DText-Field1 (Sub Element)
       DText-Field2 (Sub Element)
Kindly advise which one is the correct definition   (Or if I am missing something out e.g. Recordset element betweend DT_ORDERS and HHeader)
Thanks in advance

Excite 10LE AT200 - Does proprietary connector allow for file transfers or just charging?

I just purchased an Excite 10LE AT200 and my question concerns connecting it to my Win 7 PC.
I'm able to connect the Excite to my PC via the microUSB connector and transfer files (i.e., the PC recognizes that AT200 as a device). However, when I connect the Excite using the honking big proprietary USB cable that comes with the AT200, the PC doesn't recognize the Excite at all. I see that its charging but I would expect that the proprietary connector would also allow the PC to see the 10LE. Could it be that that the proprietary connector is just used for charging? I'm concerned that if my microUSB port breaks I'll have no way of transferring files to the 10LE.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi. Not sure if you are aware of a great app called AirDroid? If not, get it! Wireless transfer between your desktop and tablet. You won't do the wire thing anymore. Amazing app and simple to use...

Want Wired for Internet, Wireless for file transfers on home network

I live in Dubai where internet in my house is connected straight from an ethernet port in the wall in numerous rooms. I have one wired connection hardwired from port to airport extreme which creates a wireless network for my laptops for internet.. apple tv et al. (home network 10.0.1.1 etc)
In the other room i have a mac mini which is directly hardwired to a second ethernet port. I use this machine for hard wired internet as its essentially downloading continuously for work.
Looking at network setting states..
Wired connection states in network details : (To be used purely for hardwired internet)
router address of (91.74.X.1)
and ethernet port ip (91.74.x.21)
Wireless connection states in network details : (To be used purely for connection to home wireless network and streaming of files within internal networks)
Router (10.0.0.1)
IP4V address is (10.0.1.4)
Subset mask is 255.255.255.0
I would like to force the mac mini to only use the wired ethernet connection for surfing/downloading, and also have an IP from the home network (10.0.1.2 etc) purely for file sharing/streaming with other computers on my home network.
Is this possible ?

NAS is the right tool for this job.
It is expensive but the market leaders.. synology and QNAP have really been doing it for long time and the ability to do file store/sharing and most importantly backup in these is excellent. Pick the best you can afford.. and buy disks that are in the recommended list. ie the cheapest are not always the best.. indeed they seldom are.
Plan very carefully for rotation of USB drives (easy and cheap now with 4TB single drives). Rotate backups with offsite location on weekly basis.
I would buy a 4 disk case.. you can use 4x3TB which are the best value at the moment.. that gives you 9TB of storage.. plus redundancy for a dead drive.
Alternatives are using a Mac Mini as a server.. with a large stack of disks on it.. generally should be thinking thunderbolt if you want speed. Hideously expensive though for now.
You can buy an Extreme or TC.. either would work well. TC allows you easy TM backups without using your NAS..
Edit very large files on the computer. ie copy to computer.. edit.. copy back to the NAS.
Editing very large files over wireless.. not good. Multiply that by mutliple computers.. not even fair.
Copy a large project to the computer.. work on it.. copy back to the NAS.. in the meantime Time Machine should be able to take care of incremental backups.
There are heaps and heaps of solutions.. as long as it is logical and easy to you.. and covers what you need.
Don't skimp.. spending a $1000 for a NAS with disks.. plus extra for the backup disks.. that represents how many day's work for you plus anyone you have helping.. $$$$ ????
A mini as a server is a good alternative.. You don't need to run server OS.. but share files to the network. Very hard to build the capacity of the NAS though.
And a Mac Pro is now a joke without internal slots and cages for drives. (nice machine but wrong for this).
And Apple have nothing in between.. a short tower case.. been missing for a long long time.

Not getting N speed for file transfers?

I am hoping someone out there can help with this.
I have an Extreme base station that I have been using for a while and have had a media player connected to this via an ethernet cable which all worked well. I wanted to get rid of the ethernet cable so I went a bought a 802.11n Airport Express today. After much futzing around I managed to get the Airport Express to connect to the Airport Extreme to extend the network and my media player shows up on the network as it is supposed to.
My settings for the two Airport base stations are as follows;
Airport Extreme
Version 7.3.1
Wireless mode: Create a wireless network
Network name: Apple Network
Wireless Security: WPA2 Personal
Channel: 36 (Automatic)
Wireless Clients: 2
IP Address: 10.1.1.2
Radio Mode: 802.11n only (5Ghz)
Airport Express
Version: 7.3
Wireless mode: Extend a wireless network
Network Name: Apple Network
Airport Express Name: Express
Wireless Security: WPA2 Personal
Channel: 36 (Automatic)
Wireless Clients: 1
IP Address: 10.1.1.4
Under wireless options I have the Express set to use wide channels.
Where my problem lies is that the transfer speeds to the media player are now extremely slow now that i am using wireless. I used to get transfer speeds (wired) via FTP of +2MB/sec (usually 2.3/2.4) and now I am only getting a max of 550KB/sec which quickly drops to around 250KB/sec. If I option click the Airport status on my Macbook it shows a transfer rate of 54.
I can still transfer files from my Macbook to Airport disk at a reasonable speed but the transfer from either the Macbook or Airport disk to the media player is painfully slow.
Hopefully someone can help. Thanks in advance.

So I am still playing around with this and I have downgraded the firmware in my Extreme to 7.2.1 and upgraded the firmware in the express to 7.3.1. I managed to get connected directly to the Extreme somehow and a file transfer (1GB file) via FTP was sitting on 1.2MB/s until it got about halfway through the file and crashed my FTP program and I lost all internet connectivity.
After restarting the Extreme and the Express the internet came back but this time my Macbook was connected to the Express and back to 11g speeds.
Is there a way to force my Macbook to connect to the Extreme and not the Express?
All I really want out of this **** Airport Express is to act as a wireless adaptor for my media player.
Why cant it just give me a connection out of the ethernet port when in "join a wireless network" mode?

Parameters used for file input

Hi,
PARAMETERS : P_FNAME LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME OBLIGATORY
PARAMETERS : P_FNAME LIKE IBIPPARMS-PATH OBLIGATORY
PARAMETERS : P_HFILE LIKE FILENAME-FILEINTERN OBLIGATORY
PARAMETERS : P_NAME TYPE APQI-GROUPID.
The above are the various ways of decalring the parameters for file input... can u tell me what is the difference between them & the situations or condition when, which one has to be used ??
Regards,
- Hello SAP

Hi,
I am assuming you are using the parameters to upload/download a file.
Here is what they will do for you. Let us see the following file name parameter.
PARAMETERS : P_FNAME LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME OBLIGATORY
Defining the parameter this way will help you in using the obsolete function modules of WS_DOWNLOAD, WS_UPLOAD as their interface requires the filename to be defined this way. But the new replacement for them GUI_DOWNLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD defined the filename as a string. Also F4 function modules used for browsing through desktop directories for a file like KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4 also use the parameter of this type.
So, if you are using a function module like the ones above, then you are better of with this parameter.
Let us see this definition.
PARAMETERS : P_FNAME LIKE IBIPPARMS-PATH OBLIGATORY
This is no different from the one above, so it makes no difference.
Next.
PARAMETERS : P_HFILE LIKE FILENAME-FILEINTERN OBLIGATORY
This is typically used for a logical file name, not a physical filename and path. What a logical filename does is that it allows you to define logically define filenames and use them in your programs at the same time giving you(or your network team) the flexibility to change the directory structure. When they change the directory structure, all you have to do is to change your logical path definition, rather than changing every single program that uses the path. FILE is the tcode for this area. Length of this is just 60 and so it may not be sufficient for the filename and path. But if you are using it as a logical file name, then it is useful when using function modules like FILE_GET_NAME which will read in a logical file name and give you the string containing the physical path and file name.
Now the last one.
PARAMETERS : P_NAME TYPE APQI-GROUPID.
This is not at relevant for files. This is used in batch input and this is the name of the batch input session. It is 12 characters long.
Hope this helps, if not please let us know.

I/O Buffer Size for files transfers

Hello,
Do you know how to change I/O Buffer size ?
I use large data transfers from my macbook to volumes of an afp OS X 10.5.8 Leopard.
Since 10.6.4 upgrade, my files transfers on the internal network slows down. Around 2Mo/s. It was best before.
I suppose that size of the packets of datas has ben reduced, and I would like to run comparative tests with various values.

At first, first advantage is that the software document how is implemented standard OS set-up :
- The system parameters are sysctl variables that are set as follows:
net.inet.tcp.sendspace: 131072
net.inet.tcp.recvspace: 358400
kern.ipc.maxsockbuf: 512000
so : Packets of files copied on the finder are by default : 512k large. This is also visible during copies.
With the new set-up, this size is increased to 1024k. I've not found exactly in wich file are saved these system parameters.
After the buffer size change, the file copy speed is not enough improved : finally, interest of the change is not very high.

Anyone use MediaMonkey for file transfers with their Zen (Xtra)? For changing bitrat

I'm looking for some software that will reduce the bitrates of my songs as they are transferred from my Vista computer to my Zen Xtra, i.e., I store my music files on my computer in WMA lossless format, and I want them copied onto my device at 28kb
ps.
MediaMonkey looks like it will do this. Does Windows Media Player?
Are there other MP3 File Management programs that do this?

Hiya all,
Just to let you know, that this has happened again, 2nd time within 4 months of owning it, I cannot add or remove data from the data partition, I can listen to the MP3's fine, but can't do jack with the data partition, does anyone know of anything that can resolve this since the last time I reported the problem? I've double checked that I've got the most up todate firmware and software. It's a bit pants if you can't use the Zen Xtra for what it's designed for!

Does Multithreading for file transfers work when using the WebDAV protocol?

I am looking at recommending an upgrade from CS5.5 to CS6 for my job, but I am wondering if our server system will be able to use the multiple file upload and download feature new to CS6. If this is not available for WebDAV then there is not much of a point on the Dreamweaver side for us to upgrade.
Thanks

Best set up for file transfers?

I am currently running a G4 Dual 533 as a file server and have placed my music, videos, and photos on it. I am set up via airport cards for wireless connections my issue is that this seems to be a very slow transfer speed. Even Itunes seems to have problems playing music without hiccuping. Is this due to the airport card in the G4 being the lowest transfer speed?
JJ

Are you using Apple's Airport card? The internal Airport cards are 802.11b @ 11Mbps. You could get a PCI extreme wireless card with 802.11g @ 54Mbps.

Recommended software for file transferring offline between Mac 10.5.8 and iPhone 5?

I have an iPhone 5 and a Mac OS X 10.5.8 therefore I am unable to sync my iPhone with iTunes on my laptop.
I am looking for software which will allow me to transfer files to and fro between my iPhone and Mac without access to the internet.
I realise that I can import photos from my iPhone to my Mac computer through iPhoto but I would like to do the opposite of putting photos from my Mac onto my iPhone. I have found answers of using such software such as Dropbox but it seems that I would need to connect my Mac to the internet, which I am unable to do. I would also like to import music from my Mac onto my iPhone if possible.
Are there any software or programs that allows me to do this offline by simply plugging my iPhone to my Mac via the USB port? I would be willing to purchase a program at a decent price so long as it is cheaper than having to buy a new Mac computer!
I would be thankful for any advice.
Cheers.

What about updating your Mac to OS X 10.6.8? That's only US $20 from Apple.
