Mac unathorizing Win 7 files.

Im trying to work on a windows 7 and mac network. We are using photoshop and saving a the JPGS on a MAC. Erery time a win 7 user saves files the mac it sets restricted permissions to that file. And windows computers cant open them util the new permissions are set to read & write again.
The files, folders and subfolders were all previously set to read&write. The OS we are using is 10.6.8.
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
unless you have Windows programs that needs 64-bit Windows, I would say use 32-bit Windows 7.
The other 'advantage' of 64-bit Windows (useage of more than 4GB RAM) is not applicable with MacMini and Fusion.

How to open and use mac outlook email file on pc

I recently moved from mac to widnows platform. I have my emails exported from mac in a file and now when I try opening the file on windows pc, it simply
does not recognize it as a valid file. what shall be done to get emails back?

Hi,
Based on the description, you seem to have an olm file? Please note Outlook for Windows can only import emails from pst files, olm files can't be imported into Outlook for Windows directly.
A workaround is to setup an IMAP account in Outlook for Mac - it's better to be an empty new account, we can sign up one from many email providers. Then move all emails you need to migrate into that IMAP account. Outlook will
start to sync, all the emails will be uploaded to the email server.
The next step is to create that IMAP account in Outlook for Windows. After the emails are synced, we should find all these emails you need in the local .pst(Outlook 2010) or .ost (Outlook 2013) file.
I hope this makes sense for you, if you have any questions about the steps, feel free to let me know.

Third-party NTFS software interferes with the Apple NTFS drivers, which control whether you can see the Bootcamp partition in the Startup Disk option. As a test, can you uninstall all third-party NTFS software and check System Preferences -> Startup Disk?

It's not that you can't format it because you have no backup, it's because you'll lose everything when you do. Lesson learned. Always have a backup.

File Object Unable to select Mac OS package file

Hi,
I'm trying to select a Mac OS package file using either the
File object 'browseForDirectory' or 'browseForOpen' methods,
whichever method I choose doesn't work and the packages appear
greyed out in the finder and are not selectable.
On Mac OS, directories can be designated as packages and show
up in the Mac OS Finder as a single file rather than as a
directory.
Does anyone know whether this is a known bug, and if so are
there any workarounds.
I can hardcode the path to a package and then process all the
files within, however I need for the end user to be able to select
the package.
Thanks,
Mike

UPDATE I have finally got it to install

Color Cast Only On Mac Generated jpg files When Viewed In Bridge Cs3 Preview

Hi,
( Issue With Cs3 Bridge Viewing Jpgs - Getting Colour Cast on the Mac Generated Jpgs Files Only When Viewed In Bridge Cs3 On PC )
Using CS3 creative suite Mac & PC and viewing all files on the PC.
We have psd files when viewing in bridge they are ok and save jpgs via PS3 both on the Mac & PC off the same PSD file that we started with.
But when viewing these jpg files in bridge we get a red cast only when viewing from the Mac generated files from the same PSD we started with.
When we open the jpg files up in Photoshop all of them are ok we no issues only when viewing in bridge we get the red cast.
All PSD files have the same information content:
Bit depth
Colour space
Pixel size
Why are we getting this happening.
Thnx

Thanks very much for that lead, NormanPCN. I do have Auto Tone checked, though the rendered files in the example above do not have XMP sidecars. I will try unchecking Auto Tone even so, and post back when I see what happens.
Thanks again,
Kieren
EDIT: Bingo! I took Auto Tone off in ACR Preferences (in Bridge) and the non-RAW files immediately regenerated thumbs and previews. They now are indistinguishable from the PSD. There is still the very slight difference which I mentioned between the PSD and the CR2. While that seems odd, it is small enough to be relatively trivial.
Many thanks!

How can transfer Mac Outlook Contact files to the MacPro Address book?

I tried the suggested three step process, ie, (1) Export Contacts from Outlook in txt formant, and (2) Open the txt file Excel and Save As in csv format, (3) Import the csv file into the MacPro Address book. However the Export from Outlook Contacts in txt results in a messed up file with data in random columns. The Import into the Address book resulted in 21,000 plus entries (my Outlook Contacts had about 3000 plus). Any solutions?

Mac Outlook exports files in a .olm format. What you need is an .olm to the Apple format converter - here's such a tool - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/olm-converter-pro/id522796199?mt=12 = expensive but it gets pretty decent reviews.

Printer preview is dark page on my Mac thou pdf file on screen?

Printer preview is dark page on my Mac thou pdf file on screen?
Not had this problem before!!

Thanks this is the first time it has happened. The form I am trying to print is a QE 2 annual tag form for the M25 so it is a well used document.
Everything goes fine until I hit the page preview when up comes a dark area I have hit the PDF buttom but to no avail.
I also reloaded the printer using Apple downloads as the disc for the Epsom is not acceptable.

Copy CD with Mac and Windows Files

I have a CD, not copy protected that has both Mac files and Windows files on it. Specifically it is a Printer Driver CD.
When I make an image of it with Disk Utility, the only files in it are the Mac files. I wanted to make a safe backup of the CD, including both the Mac files (for my PB G4) and the Windows files for when I install the print drivers on my new MacBook Pro using BootCamp.
Any ideas as to how to make a copy of a CD that has both Mac and Windows files on it?
Thank you

Are you sure the Windows files aren't there? A lot of CDs are hybrids, and do not show the files that belong on another platform such as Windows. Put it in a Windows computer and check.
Otherwise, buy a copy of Toast and dupe it that way.

CS6 to older, or newer to CS6?

What can I use in mac to extract files

Guys
as you can tell by my questions I'm new in Mac, I like to know what tool I can use in mac to extract files like in PC WinZip, I downloaded free trial of Photoshop and I need to extract the file I'm not sure if Mac already came it a tool or I need to downloaded,
do you have any list of tools or applications use in PC amd the equivalent in Mac
Message was edited by: Macvin

I made the switch from PC to Macs about a year ago and was surprised I did not need to add any extraction utilities. Have you tried just double clicking on the downloaded file, it should install without any effort other than the double click.

Mac renaming .vcs files to .ics files without prompting... Can I stop it?

I use a site that takes my work schedule and generates a .vcs file that I can import into whatever scheduling program I want...
When I download the file from the website on my PC, it saves it as a .vcs and everything is fine.
When I do the exact same thing on my Mac, it renames the file to 'calendar.vcs.ics' and iCal complains that the file is bad and can't be imported. If I remove the .ics extension so the file is just 'calendar.vcs' iCal is able to import it just fine.
Why is the Mac renaming the file when it gets downloads? How can I stop it? I've tried on 2 different G4 Minis with all the latest updates, and I can't find anything to stop it!
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to Apple Discussions
It sounds like the file originates as a .vcs file. The Mac is not renaming the file, per se. When downloaded, the Mac (iCal) will by default append the .ics extension since it's eventual home is iCal. Having the .vcs extension already in place prior to the DL is what makes things complicated. iCal will import either file extension, but not both appended.
Although this example from the Apple Knowledge Base is not related, the resolution is probably the same, i.e. you need to manually remove the extension prior to the import into iCal.

Why mac always delete files on the ipod? and the third this!

why mac always delete files on the ipod? and the third this!

It's not Mac, it is iTunes, especially the recent version.
Every week you can see about 10 posts on iPod missing songs after ejecting from iTunes.
Well maybe Apple is telling iPod users, to buy their latest innovation like iPad 2.

I have accidentally deleted off my Mac a preferences file for Adobe photoshop and now the program cannot initialize. I have talked to Apple and then say that if Adobe can isolate the file they can help me restore it from my time machine. How do I isolate the file ?

Do you have the path to this file and name of this file?

Mac as a file server for windows -- mounting a mac disk at windows startup

Is there any way to use the Mac as a file server for a windows XP home service pack 1 system?
The best I can do is "mount disk at login". However, this fails to use the right username/password, and even then it fails to deal with programs that run outside of a user context, or with fast user switching (it seems every program gets a different set of drive letters to remote volume mappings).
Mac Mini 1.42 1G Mac OS X (10.4.3)

And this is my problem.
In windows terms:
I want to assign a drive letter to a network drive, and have that be a machine-wide assignment, that is activated during bootup, and is visible to all users and services.
I can do that for an arbitrary partition that is physically attached to the machine.
I cannot seem to do that for any partition that is mounted over the network.
The problems are:
1. It doesn't map for every user,
2. It doesn't map for services that run when a user isn't logged in
3. It generates annoying inconsistencies in what programs see what.
Is there really no way for an XP box to use a file server? Even a microsoft file server? (if there is, how do I make my mac os with samba look like a real microsoft file server).
Annoying tidbit: The "conncet at login" information is stored in the user profile; if you rely on that, then the user profile cannot be stored with the rest of the user's personal files. If it weren't for that, I could probably live with a work around.
(2 to 1 someone will say "Xp Professional can do that trivially" and tell me to upgrade. I thought XP home was supposed to support home and small office networking, and I thought that included a single shared file server.)
