Missing files from Finder-burnt DVD

On my new 24" iMac, I created a burn folder (containing around 2 gig, 1000 files, in various subfolders) and burnt it to a DVD. Finder says the DVD wrote and verified successfully, but when look around the DVD in the Finder, whole folders show up as having no files! I can reverify that the source burn folder has the files and I can view them, etc. Also reburned to a new DVD but the same problem still occurs.
Any ideas on what's happening or anyone seen the same problem?

If, instead of drag/dropping the folders to the Burn Folder (which creates an alias to the original, but the original gets burned to the DVD), try copying the folders to the burn folder by holding down the option key when you drag it to the folder. Does that work?
How about selecting the group of folders you want to burn to DVD and select File Menu->Burn XXX to Disc. Does that work?
Make sure while its burning that you aren't deleting/moving files around in the folders you are trying to burn. Just start the burn process and go get a beer/soda/cappuccino and come back when the burn has finished.

Cannot copy files from CD or DVD using Finder.

Hi,
I cannot copy files and folders from a CD or DVD to my home folder or any folder therein using Finder. I just get the "Not Permitted" symbol next to the mouse pointer when I try to drag a folder out of the CD (or DVD) to my home folder.
I have checked that I have sufficient permissions to perform this operation and when I copy files from the CD or DVD using the command line, it works without any hassles.
This is extremely strange and I cannot think of why it should happen.
A solution would be most welcome as I would prefer not to have to drop into a command line when I have to copy files from CDs or DVDs.

I am experiencing the same problem: after undoing a copy in the Finder from my CD-drive to my Seagate 200GB FW-drive, I am no longer able to copy single files in the Finder from other drives than my harddisk. I can copy from my hard disk to my external harddisk, I can move and copy files within the harddisk, but I cannot copy from my external hard drive or my CD/DVD-drive to my harddisk or from my CD/DVD-drive to my external hard drive or the internal harddisk.
What is increasingly weird, is that I can easily copy two or more files using drag and drop! I also get a nice green + sometimes when trying to move the files, but there is just no response.
I have tried the following:
0) rebooted.
1) rm com.apple.finder.plist + killall -9 Finder
2) done that in the finder using cmd-alt-esc to kill the finder.
3) removed cache files using Yasu from http://jimmitchelldesigns.com/yasu.html, including rebooting
4) Doublechecked permissions, including locked bits
5) run periodic everything from the Terminal
6) repaired permissions
7) checked the hard disk using disk utility
8) Logged in as another admin user to no avail.
I can use the Terminal to copy the files without any problems, and I can open files in other applications and save them where ever from there, but the Finder refuses to let me.
May Gods wrath kill the Finder for good! I certainly hope 10.5 will show a new Finder!

Mac: can I drag and drop files from Finder into Files panel

I am relatively new to Mac so forgive me if this is obvious.
I just switched from Windows to Mac and now something I used to
know how to do in Windows I can't figure out how to do on Mac. In
Windows I used to open an Explorer window over Dreamweaver, select
some files, and drap and drop them into the Files panel in
Dreamweaver, and they would be sucked in.
Now on the Mac whenever I select the Finder window to select
files to drag and drop, the Dreamweaver panels disappear
completely, rather than just move beneath the Finder window. So
when I'm ready to drag and drop there's no Dreamweaver to drop
into. I see that if I put focus on Dreamweaver, then Finder won't
disappear, and I can click on Finder to begin a drag without
Dreamweaver disappearing but then it is unresponsive to a drop.
In short, I can't seem to drag and drop files from Finder
into Dreamweaver on the Mac. Am I missing something? I'm using
Dreamweaver CS3 on Leopard if that makes any difference.
Thanks,
Jan

I don't believe you can do this on the Mac platform. The only
other thing you could try is to use Spaces and have the Finder open
in one Space and then drag it over to Dreamweaver in another space.
Outside of that I can't think of how this would work.

Deleate missing files from catalog

With DSLR cameras we shoot tens of thousands of pictures a year and delete hundreds from our hard drives over time. So how do you delete hundreds of missing missing files that still exist in the catalog, which cause the "Reconnect Missing Files" screen to show? Does a setting exist to remove all missing files from the catalog?

In PSE11, do Find >> All Missing Files and select all and delete.
Thanks

HT3842 Does iTunes store the original music file and copy it into a separate folder? If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library?

Hi, on my last PC when transferring music to my new MacBook Pro i noticed i had about 6 duplicated of each song in every album i took hours in removing them.
I Just wondered Does iTunes store the original music file and then copy it into a separate folder?
If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library or vice versa. I didnt want to lose any music like i have some how managed to on my old computer.
Or should i keep both files of it in the Music folder and also iTunes library folder?
Which is best ?

It does both at the same time.
When you add files to iTunes, it copies them into /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/ folder. The original file remains where it was.
You can drag a file to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes/ folder.
This will add to iTunes and move it to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/.
I keep a shortcut of this folder on my desktop then simply drag files to the shortcut to add to iTunes.
Then there are no "extra" files around.

This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files, rebooting helps another 4 a 5 times and appears again.

I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck.

Can No Longer Drag JPG files From Finder Directly Into .fla Stage?

For the past six months I have been following a manual process to convert JPG files (exported from InDesign) into SWF files for display advertising assets.
Using pre-built FLA files as templates (configured with clicktags):
Open FLA templates (3 separate files for 3 IAB ad sizes)
Drag JPG from Finder directly into stage of FLA file, aligned to
Publish to output folder for renaming
Today, for no apparent reason, I can no longer drag anything into the stage of any FLA file. Not just the pre-built templates. Nothing will drag & drop into an FLA stage.
What I have tried:
Restarted Mac
Reset Flash preferences
What I know I can still do:
Drag files from Finder into the Library, and drag into FLA stage from there
"File > Import to Stage..."
This works but because of my naming convention it prompts to import them all each time because Flash sees the sequence
This is not another step I am willing to contend with for my manual workflow
Me and my creative team need to process hundreds of assets like this each week, so I'm very anxious to discover why functionality that was working, suddenly stopped.
Running:
MacBookPro Retina OS X 10.8.5
Flash CS6 v. 12.0.2.529

just want to add my annoyance to the pile here. I can't see any logic behind removing the drag and drop function, especially when adding a new folder is now a multi-step process that is far from obvious. to start a new playlist with local folder content you now need to:enter settingsclick into advanced settings (basically all settings now seem to be "advanced"?)manually find and add the foldergo through the adventure of finding the files in your library.
-- because they may or may not be listed under "local files" - you won't know because Ctrl+F is also removed. so you have to remember/know what the album you added is called and search for that. if you have a mixed bag of file names from various albums, you're basically shafted; there's no way to find them all with a single search.then you can add them to playlisteta: but wait! there's more! if you have more than 15 files? you're **bleep** out of luck, because the search will only display the first 15 hits among your local files, and then show you spotify library tracks.I can't help but feel as though spotify is doing everything they can to stop us using spotify to listen to local files, as bugs that make it more or less impossible persist through multiple versions - and now features that seem to me to be basic functionality are being removed?mega minus points from someone who's been using spotify since 2008.

Why can I no longer drag a .eps file from finder into a slide to embed the image?

I have always been able to embed a .eps file into a Keynote presentation by dragging the file from Finder onto a slide. This no longer seems to work in Keynote 6.1 in Maverick 10.9.1

This is a complete deal breaker for me. The main reason I was using keynote was that I could write equations on latex and drag them directly as eps images to the slides. I can still do it if I export them as png or jpg, but the aesthetic result is subpar. Any idea of when is this going to be restored in keynote? Thanks!

Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
The iTunes folder is normally inside <User's Music>. I get the idea that things are different but I don't have a clear picture yet. I think you've somehow managed to get the media folder pointed at <User's Music> instead <User's Music>\iTunes\iTunes Media. A screenshot of the iTunes > Edit > Preferences > Advanced might help confirm. Once we know what is going on it should be possible to make suggestions as to what to do next.

Photoshop won't open file from finder or iPhoto

I just installed Tiger and did a software up date so I'm totally up-to-date. My problem is that when I double click on a jpg in the finder or iPhoto Photoshop launches (if it's not already open) but it won't load the file. I've gone into the Get Info window and told the JPG to open with PS but that did nothing. The same with iPhoto, I've told it to open the file for editing in PS but it just opens PS and sits there, no file opened. I seem to remember this happening with a co-workers machine when he updated to Tiger and he says I fixed it but I can't for the life of me remember how I fixed the problem.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

If you did an update install you are missing this:
"/Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types"
If you still have your Previous System folder around just copy the ScriptingAdditions folder and its one file into your new root Library folder. If you disposed of it you download the "AdobeUnitTypes" file from HERE. Unzip, create the folder and put the file in it.
Or you can always reinstall Photoshop....

Recover missing files from FAT32 SD card?

I got back from a trip and used the SD card slot in my MacBook Pro to import my photos -- first into Aperture, and then using Image Capture to make a second copy as regular image files. Then I used Image Capture to delete the files from the card.
So far, so good....except nearly 300 photos have are missing -- the last 300 I took on the card. If I look at the card in the Finder now (it's FAT32), there aren't any photos on it. But there is still over 3GB of data, suggesting the missing photos' data is on there somewhere.
Any suggestions for how to recover it? TechTool Pro doesn't see the card at all (maybe doesn't support FAT32?).
Thanks.

You can follow the way to see how to recover deleted files from sd card. Connect the data cable for the card reader to an empty USB port on your computer. Insert the SD card into the external or built-in card reader. Right-click the Recycle Bin icon on the desktop, then click "Open." Highlight and select the deleted files on the SD card you want to restore to the device. Right-click one of the selected files on the SD card and then click "Restore." Besides, you can also use Data Recvoery to restore your data even your SD card is damaged.

MISSING ROXIO from Lenovo recovery DVD install

Need help!!!!
Installed recovery OS from the Lenovo DVD's shipped to me and Roxio or IBM recordnow didn't get included in the install. Was hoping not to have to request another set of recover software from Lenovo.
They have an FTP site with updates etc. was wondering if anyone had the link to get to the Roxio software that i am missing for Vista 64 bit. Thankyou

Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you have received recovery discs for Vista X64 I presume you have a T61 as you are posting in the T board.
Have you an entry in Start > Programs called Multimedis Center? This is where the Roxio software should be.
