Moving files from one partition to another

I originally posted this in the Mountain Lion section, but maybe this is where I should have tried first.
I have a song in the iTunes library of the Snow Leopard side of my Hard Drive. It plays well. However, I want to move it to the Mountain Lion side of my Hard Drive. The problem is, it doesn't play very well there; in fact, it's more like static and screech than a song. I recorded it with an older version of iTunes and in the Snow Leopard environment, but I want to move it to the latest version of iTunes in the Mountain Lion side of my Hard Drive.
I thought I had solved the problem. I played the song and recorded it again using WireTap Studio (a sound recording and editing program). I then mailed it to myself, and I opened it in the Mountain Lion partition. Unfortunately, although I had expected that to do the trick, the song file I opened in Mountain Lion was just as bad as before. What else can I try? I had thought of burning the song into a CD in the Snow Leopard side and then moving it to my Mountain Lion side using WireTap Studio again. Would that work? If not, what can I do?
iDVD 7.1.1 (1150)

I've been spending a great deal of time trying to get the definitive answer, but I keep running into things I just don't understand; nevertheless, I couldn't find any differences between the recordings that make them sound so different. I looked at many song files, but I'll just mention some in the notes I have at hand.
(1) Recording from YouTube (The quality is fine): 4.9 MB, 128 kbps, MPEG aud., 44,100 kHz
[This is about the same as the recordings I have in Snow Leopard that could be transferred to Mountain Lion without loss of quality]
(2) The recording that sounds great in Snow Leopard but terrible in Mountain Lion: 8.8 MB, 173 kbps, MPEG aud., 44,100 kHz.
When I tried using VLC, the following message appeared on my screen: VLC Media Player cannot open files in the MPEG audio layer 3 format. I might add that when I tried "right-clicking," I was given the choice of at least ten programs (Flip, Quicktime, RealPlayer, iTunes, etc., but none that I tried were useful (I still haven't tried the high-powered "safecracking" programs I have somewhere.
That's it for me today. I don't want to say how much time I've already spent on this, but I'm exhausted, so I'm heading for the gym. Bench presses are easier on the system.

How to transfer files from one partition to another on the same computer

I had a crash could not boot back into my 8.1 upgrade. Went out bought standalone 8.1. I loaded it on HD free space now I want to transfer files from one partition to another.

hi
say there are two infoobjects X and Y.
X is existing infoobject and Y in new one.
go to infosurce-search for X-create export datasource - map the rules and load the data.
This is one way.
Other way is u can use X as a reference object of Y so that both of them have same structure and both objects will share common database tables in BW which are exsting for X.
Hope this helps.
Kindly assign the points if it helps.

Moving files from one drive to another

How can I move a batch of files from one drive to another using Bridge CS4?

There are two methods. One involves your operating system and the other uses Bridge.
Using Microsoft (sorry to you Mac users) have Windows Explorer open to the directory containing your files. Click and drag the directory from one drive to another. Conversely if you want to copy just a selection of the files follow this routine.
Create a duplicate named directory in the destination drive. Select the file you wish to move and do so from directory to directory.
In Bridge it is even easier. In Bridge ensure that the Folders sub pane is open and visibile. Just click on the source directory and click and drag it to the destination drive.
Testing on my part (I routinely move up to 30 gigabytes at a time) has demonstrated that Bridge adds a little time to the process depending on the size of the source files. I suspect that this has to do with additional overhead of the program.
To be safe I would recommend that you do use the copy method instead of moving the directory. This is a failsae in case any problems crop up during the process. It takes mere moments to delete the source directory after the copy routine has run.

Moving Files from one project to another??

New to Aperture ..and wondering is there an easy way to move files from one project to another? Or to move from one Album one project to another Album in another project if the Albums have the same name?
thanks in advance,
Steve

Yes, simply drag-and-drop a thumbnail from a Project to another Project; or Option-drag-and-drop (one way copies the image, the other way moves the image).
Or to move from one Album one project to another Album in another project if the Albums have the same name
Although Albums can be located in Projects, Albums are really not "in" Projects as regards where the images come from. Each album is simply a virtual collection of pointers to images; the images pointed to can be located in multiple Project(s). So just drag-and-drop a thumbnail image from any project to an album to add a pointer for that image to that album.
Although it seems complex it really isn't. Albums are a very powerful organizational tool with essentially zero overhead. Try it. Create some test albums in various ways just to see what happens and delete the albums when you are done. Since Albums consist of just "pointers" we can make/delete them at will for any reason.
Note that Albums can be deleted with no warning message because Apple figures a simple collection of pointers is not that big a deal. Personally I think Album-deleting should have a (non-dire) explanatory warning message, because sometimes an album can consist of a complex collection of pointers.
Multiple Albums should never have the same name.

Moving files from one folder to another caused freeze

I now have a list of files stuck in the center of my screen.
I'm sure a reboot will fix this (I hope!) but I thought it was a bug worth reporting.
All I did was move a copy a collection of files from one folder to another folder. It made the "move" sound, and the files have been copied, but something clearly went wrong

Have java.io.File objects pointing to the three folders. Get the list of all the files in the folder. Start a loop and check if the filename ends with Data.dat. If it is so then copy file to the final folder.
To Copy file you can use any of the two approaches.
1. You can read that file as byte stream (java.io.FileInputStream) and write it to the other folder as bytes (java.io.FileOutputStream).
2. You can use shell commands to do this. (java.lang.Runtime.exe() method)

Moving files from one user to another

Good afternoon all!
In short I need to create a new user on a MacBook Pro running 10.7 (latest updates available as of this posting). However in the past when I have done this, when I moved the needed files (Photoshop actions, images, etc) over to the new user I kept getting permission errors which makes sense.
So my question is simply, how do I migrate data from one user account to another while either modifying or fixing permission issues?
Thanks!

Copy all the data files into /Users/Share as the old user then log in as the new user and copy the files from /Users/Share to the home folder.

Moving files from one catalog to another in Organizer 8

I have photos and videos that are very different I want in seperate Catalogs. They are currently in separate Albums. How can I more one Album from Catalog 1 to Catalog 2. Help is of no help.

Hi,
I am not sure whether any other way exists, but I have a way out.
1. Your catalog is by default located at ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\Your_Catalog_Name\
2. Make a copy of your catalog at the same location.
3. Launch EO.
4. Go to File>Catalog and choose the copied catalog and open,
5. Now delete one album from it, say Album 1.
6. From the other catalog delete Album 2.
Thus you will have to catalogs, one having Album1 and other having Album 2.

Moving files from one folder to another using workflows

Hi everyone,
I need help creating a workflow. Within my Shared Documents Library, there is a folder, within which there are other sub-folders.
Shared Documents--> Resumes --> Approved
Shared Documents--> Resumes --> Rejected
I want to create a workflow so that the resumes are uploaded to the Resumes folder and based on whether the user approves or rejects them, they are moved into either the Approved or Rejected folders. Any help would be highly appreciated
Thank you.

Why to make it more complex when we already have facility to group them by status option? Create a view and select group by “status” or create a separate web part page and add Shared Document library web part 2 times on the same page. For the first web part
select filter option which only displays files with “Approved” status and for the other web part select it for “Rejected”
Though you can refer below link if you wish to involve workflow into this

Moving images from one library to another; or how to have 2 libraries open at the same time in Aperture 2

This may be something easy but for some reason I am having a hard time figuring this out. Basically this is the situation: I have a library on my MBP hd that I import pictures to when I am not hooked up to my external hd for the time being. The main library is of course on the external 2tb drive. How do I have 2 libraries open so that I can essentially drag and drop the pictures from one library to another? It would basically be like moving files from one project to another. Thanks for any help!

Always keep a backup of your original images, before you delete them. I make a backup right form the card, before I even import them to Aperture.
How are your images stored right now? Are the referenced or managed? On your big volume I'd consolidate the newly imported images, to be sure they are really inside the Aperture library before I delete any images outside the library.
but they have the little yellow triangle caution symbol on them and I can see them but not really edit them
That is a very typical problem, when you imported your images as referenced images then somehow delete or move the original master image files, that are stored outside the Aperture library.
Do you still have the original masters of the images with the yellow triangle that you cannot edit? In Aperture 3 you can point Aperture to the location of the master image file "File >Locate referenced image" - probably Aperture 2 has a similar command to let you reconnect your masters, if you still have them. Look into the manual.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I have over 200 hours of HD video on 5 different TB Thunderbolt GRaid hard drives. I need to reorganize my projects, moving large files from one drive to another. Advice?

Do some testing to get your method working right with some less than important footage.
Copy/paste files where you want then.
Use the FCE Reconnect feature to tell FCE where the newly copied files reside.
Make sure the new location and files are working as expected with your Projects.
Delete the original files if no longer required.
