Lion - unable to read old leopard files on windows server

Hi,
We had a mac which was on Leopard and saved files to the server
The file system we use is a Windows 2008 File Server, this has worked fine with leopard for years
However I understand that Leopard splits the files into resource forks - and that Lion has dropped support for these files.
That particular mac is now on Lion as we upgraded and encountering LOTS of issues
I unable to open or edit lots of the files as i believe chunks of the files are missing.
E.g an .eps file showed as 740KB on leopard - Viewing from a windows PC it was 730kb for the .eps and 10kb for the ._ resource fork.
Now that we are on the LION upgrade, we only see the .eps file and it is only 730kb. Information missing is things such as preview (quark), Font data, type of file, version number
Is there anyways to fix this? we have hundreds! of images, files etc created with leopard and now upgraded to lion they all have become useless!
Rejoining the resource forks and files together so that they are usable on lion
Thanks

You installed the Developer Tools and ran the command line utility fixupresourceforks?
I would think that would work.  Can maybe try this as well:
Check to see if the file is already created and if not create it using the first line using touch. If file is already there just run the other two lines following the touch command line: 
sudo touch /etc/nsmb.conf
sudo echo "[default]" > /etc/nsmb.conf
sudo echo "streams=no" >> /etc/nsmb.conf
If you have slow browsing and issues create or renaming folders add:
sudo echo "notify_off=yes" >> /etc/nsmb.conf
Then re-connect to server shares or reboot and connect to shares again.

  • "Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"

    Hello everyone!
    We had a computer crash while we were working on Final Cut Pro and backing up some media to a hard drive.
    Since then, whenever we "capture' video footage and hit the escape key to stop capturing - we get -
    "Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"
    We reinstalled the Final Cut Pro software all over again thinking that maybe the software got corrupted and we also rectified any disk permissions for the hard drives.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    You eventually want to figure out how that happened and make sure you fix it.
    Since then, whenever we "capture' video footage and hit the escape key to stop capturing - we get -
    "Error: Final Cut Pro was unable to read the movie file just captured"
    <
    You reformatted the external drive, yes? You might not have used the correct initialization setting. Should be Macintosh HFS, journalling is optional. Or you have a drive formatted for Winderz.
    Aside from incorrect drive formatting, we have seen this error if the capture is incomplete or improperly terminated.
    It's not an FCP issue, it's hardware.

    please have a look at the folllowing link about the isntallation of the camera raw plugin.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407344.html
    be sure not to have the older version of camera raw plugin in the same folder as that of new one. dont even rename it. Remove it and store it in some other location in case you need to revert back the changes. The camera raw plugin is called : Camera Raw

  • LR unable to read CS2 PSD files?!!

    Does it make sense to anyone that LR 2.1 would be unable to read intact PSD files created in Photoshop CS2? It is telling me I need to reopen a bunch of files and save with "maximize compatibility" checked. Does anyone else find this unfathomable? Can anyone possibly provide me with a valid technical reason why this might be the case? (I am an engineer, so if there is a real reason I'd love to hear it.)

    "maximise compatibility" used to be called something else around photoshop 5. I cant remember what it was but it was slightly more descriptive. It maeks you think that it'll apply to non-adobe products, but layered files whithout maximise compatibility wont preview in bridge, open in illustrator etc. I've always thought that ALL adobe files should save with a jpeg preview and appropriate warnings so that if you choose it (to minimise file size) you can at least see what the file is.

  • WebUtil error: WUC-6: Unable to read WebUtil configuration file

    Dear Colleague,
    I received the following error:
    WUC-6: Unable to read WebUtil configuration file
    c:\OraHome_BIForms\forms\server\webutil.cfg
    In the meantime, I have verified that my default.env file contains the following path definition:
    # webutil config file path
    WEBUTIL_CONFIG=C:\OraHome_BIForms\forms\server\webutil.cfg
    What is wrong here? Does "unable to read..." mean that the file security settings do not allow read access to the webutil.cfg file?
    I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
    Thank you and kind regards,
    Randy

    In the meantime, I have figured out the solution to my problem.
    The webutil.cfg file was not in the directory that was being pointed to in the path parameter.

  • Difference in reading a text file in Windows & Unix

    I have a code which is working fine in windows but is stopping after reading the first line of a text file in
    Unix. The code is something like below:-
    declare
    file_handle text_io.file_type; /*running form*/
    filename varchar2(60);
    v_line varchar2(200);
    begin
    message('before fopen');
    filename:=:file_name;message(filename);
    file_handle:=text_io.fopen(filename,'R');
    loop
    begin
    text_io.get_line(file_handle,v_line);
    --:line:=v_line;
    exception
    when no_data_found then
    text_io.fclose(file_handle);
    message('NO MORE DATA IS FOUND ');

    when others then

    end;
    Is there any difference in reading a text file in Windows & Unix.
    I hope, my question is clear. Please help in solving the doubt as it is urgent.
    Regards.

    There is no difference in reading a file - you use TEXT_IO in the normal way. However there is of course a difference in the format of text files between Unix and Dos so if you had say transferred your test file from Dos to the Unix box for testing strange things might happen if you had not transferred in ASCII mode.
