Nautilus cannot handle FTP addresses

Hello, Forum!
On my Desktop machine, running Ubuntu 9.04, I am able to be able to use the 'Places > Connect to server' option to seamlessly log onto FTP and SSH servers, with Nautilus opening them as normal folders.
Arch is running on my recently-bought Acer Aspire One (a netbook), as I had been looking on installing Arch for some time now.
Unfortunatly, when I type my credentials into the 'Connect to server' options, Nautilus sends me to Firefox, with the following address:
file:///root/.gvfs/ftp as user on server/ (With user and server correctly matching my info.)
It displays, but do not allows me to edit files as if they were local, among other niceties.
After some research on the Wiki and on the Web, I thought the problem was either GVFS or FUSE. I've installed FUSE and set it in /etc/rc.conf, and I think GVFS is installed as Firefox correctly handles the mentioned address.
Am I missing something?
Thank you in advance

That was going to be my next thread, hehe.
The problem is that some things I installed as root aren't correctly appearing under my personal user, which I created through adduser.
While some things are annoying not to have but not strictly necessary, there are things I can't work without, such as my Internet. And I can only use network-manager under root, for some reason.
This probably has to do with the way I set up my wifi. This is my first time with a mobile device, and I don't have any experience with wifi, so, as we say here in Brazil, I was more lost than a blind man in a drive-by shooting.
I do know you shouldn't use your computer as root, as doing this could eat one's first born child and stuff, but right now I just need to work, and as it doesn't directly affects my productivity, I'm coping with it until I finish this project.
If you do have some insight onto why that's happening I'd be glad, though

Error message when trying to connect to an FTP address

I am trying to connect to an FTP address. When I use Finder > Go> Connect to server... and type in the FTP address I want and click on "connect", I get an error message:
The operation cannot be completed because one or more required items cannot be found (Error code -43)
What could this mean? I automatically get all updates.
Thanks everyone, Mike Storer, Los Angeles.
G-4 tower Mac OS X (10.4.8)

This article may help explain the Error -43
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107032
Even though the article is about connecting to an SMB share, most of it can still hold true when connecting via FTP.
If you haven't yet, you may want to try using a 3rd party FTP application, such as CyberDuck http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/14426

Can't access my FTP Address for publishing (Dreamweaver & GoDaddy)

I am attempting to publish a website for a class I am taking. When I go into the "Site" tab and try to manage the site and server using an FTP, I continually get an error message that reads, "An FTP error occurred - cannot open server folder austinwa1/. Access denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem." I am using GoDaddy for hosting and used their cPanel as I was instructed by their "help," but it doesn't seem to have helped at all. I thought I had the correct FTP address, usernamen and password but something is not right. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

austinwa1 is not a valid root directory with GoDaddy. GD uses either public_html (linux) or httpdocs (windows) as the root directory, depending on the server type you have. Wordpress and the old classic control panel versions are different still, but usually you're going to have Linux or Windows...
What is my website's root directory? | GoDaddy Help | GoDaddy Support
If you are planning to use austinwa1/ as your site root (forcing you to use www.yourdomain.com/austinwa1 as the homepage of your site) you will still need to have either public_html or httpdocs in front of austinwa1 in your server root directory field in order to connect using DW. So, in your FTP settings, you'll likely need either...
/public_html/austinwa1
or
/httpdocs/austinwa1

Arch cannot handle 4GB SD card

Hi helpful Archers,
Anyone else having this problem? My Arch system handles a smaller SD card (I have a 512 MB one), but not my 4GB one. This card is handled easily by a Xandros system, so I know the card is fine. Here is the dmesg output when I put the card in:
usb-storage: device scan complete
usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
usb 1-5: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

I don't understand why the device is "offlined". Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Ah thanks, I didn't know there was a difference. The machine with Arch on it is a few years old. Do you think it's the motherboard or the actual card slot that cannot handle SDHC?

Help! I have a new iPhone 5s. My husband just lost his 4s, so I want to give him mine. Want to use same Apple ID so we both have access to itunes/apps purchases. Want to separate contacts, messages, mail, etc. I cannot change iCloud address.

Help! I have a new iPhone 5s. My husband just lost his 4s, so I want to give him my 4s. We want to use same Apple ID so we both have access to itunes/apps purchases. Want to separate contacts, messages, mail, etc. I cannot change iCloud address on 4s iPhone. Also, when I tried to change iMessage I got a message that if I deleted my id (which seemed to be the only way to get my husband's I'd there), I would not be able to receive iMessages on any device.
Would someone kindly tell me how to set up th 4s for my husband so that we can keep our info separate? It would be most appreciated! Thanks!!

Hey Fagen!
You will want to see the following article for guidance on achieving the result you wish to achieve:
What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661
I would just follow the instructions from this article to give your unused 4s to your spouse. Since you have already started using your 5s, you will still be receiving iMessages on that phone and will have no need to receive them on a device that has been replaced. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

I am unable to email an image from camera roll. the image gets "stuck". cannot input email address or subject line. am unable to cancel and go back to camera roll

i am unable to email images from my camera roll. the image gets "stuck". cannot insert email address or subject line. cannot cancel... return to camera roll.
what to do. i tries taking new picture and sending it in an email... same thing... gets "stuck "
Waht to do ?

Hello lohmann8,
Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with emailing photos from the Camera Roll.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the Photos and Camera app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

I cannot access my address book now that I have updated to Snow Leopard.

I bought Quickbooks 2012 for the Mac, which required that I update my OS to Snow Leopard (at least.) So I purchased it online (not available at apple stores anymore.) And Installed it. Then I went to apple and got the free updates and installed them. Now I cannot use my address book. A message comes up that says " You can't use this version of the application Address Book.app with this version on Mac OS X. You have address Book.app 4.1.2" HELP! All my personal and business contacts are in there and predictably, I need them.

Can you open Contacts and edit, insert, and delete cards, or does it fail to work, also?
Try the steps I outline here: Re: After Lion upgrade, my addressbook does not work++

I was given a replacement and told to set it up on itunes but now I cannot retrieve my address book, can anyone help please?

Your servlet should extend from GenericServlet and not HttpServlet to handle ftp requests.

Trouble with iweb SEO tool publishing to FTP address

Trying to publish using SEO tool to my FTP address and nothing happens in the status bar. I selected the folder to upload and choose the right server folder but no go. Any suggestions. Do I need to go on my host and clear out the publishing folder first? Also, do people recommend iWeb SEO tool over iMAP? I know SEO is free so I am trying that first. I use I tweak to add in google analytics so not sure how that works with SEO tool? Do I need to run iTweak and then iWeb SEO then publish? Thanks again.

I just tested it with a section of a website and it uploaded fine. Its going to depend on the size of your site files.
Are you using the latest V 1.3?
It's the first time I've tested the built in FTP as I usually add the meta stuff and then optimize before uploading. It doesn't seem to take any longer than the other FTP applications I use.

One user cannot see Inactive Addresses in Account Overview

One user cannot see Inactive Addresses in Account Overview in the CRM 7.0 IC.
This user has the same roles and authorizations as all the other users.
We have also performed a user comparison in CRM and ERP and have also reset the user buffers in both systems.
If I copy the user to another user in CRM and ERP the copied user can see the Inactive addresses. A user comparison shows that the user and copied user are identical.
Any ideas?

Just a gamble, but check his user parameters in SU01.

Any help would be appreciated

Try to reduce the tcp wait time to 1 minute.
#ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_time_wait_interval 60000
This setting do not survive a reboot. Tune the paramter to the value which works fine for you. Create a script with the correct setting and add it to rc scripts directory.

Multitasking cannot handle more than 3-4 apps

Multitasking cannot handle more than 3-4 apps. If you open more, the app just wont launch! I hope there would be a fix for this since it is very annoyoing.

Just tested it again. You are right. we can open many apps as long as they are non blackberry bridge apps. The problem seems to be with the blackberry bridge apps opening simultaneously with other apps.
try to open 3 or 4 non bridge apps, then try to open any of the bridge app (contacts or bbm or other...). It just wont open. If it does open, it starts flickering and becomes unusable.
Also, if you try to open more than 3 bridge apps, you will most often have problems.
I tried this on more than one PB. Same thing.
