No thumbnails/preview in Nautilus for files in a smb shared folder.

Hi,
This is a problem I have tried to solve for more than a year by posting in forums, trial and error and a lot of Google searches. For my work I have to look through large folders on a smb share with movie files. I need thumbnails/preview to be able to work efficiently. On Ubuntu and other deb based distros I have thumbnails/preview in Nautilus just by setting it in the Naurilus preferences for networked folders. Not so on Arch (and Antergos). I do have thumbnails/preview for local files, but regardless of what I do not for the smb shared folders. I have of course configured Nautilus to preview all files.
I can see that there are generated failed thumbnails in ~/.cache/thumbnails/fail/gnome-thumbnail-factory, so for some reason they are not generated correctly for the movie files in the smb shared folder on Arch. I have tried to install ffmpegthumbnailer and tons of other methods I have found in the forums and elsewhere, but I have not been able to get it to work. And again, on Ubuntu it works out of the box so it's not like there's a bug in Nautilus preventing thumbnails for files on a network share.
I'm running GNOME as my DE, but it doesn't seem to matter which DE I run as long as Nautilus or Nemo is the file manager.
I do not expect a solution, but one can always hope!

I had a similar issue, and it turns out nautilus was using ffmpegthumbnailer instead of totem-video-thumbnailer.
And ffmpegthumbnailer doesn't seem to work with files on "smb://...". It was generating empty pngs.
Do you have totem installed et does this create an image ?

Did you try to uninstall ffmpegthumbnailer or video thumbnailers other than totem ?

the simple thing is that you need to have the folder on the xi server if you have to use NFS to access it.
Else FTP would be the choice. I am not sure how it would act in case you are able to mount the external folder on to the XI server. As somebody from your network team if thats a possibility and try to access it via NFS else you will have to go for FTP only.

File not found in shared folder when transferred through Open Dataset

Dear Experts,
I am transferring a file to a shared folder using open dataset .
The sy-subrc value returns as 0 . But i am not able to find the file in the destined path.
But when i try to retrieve the file from the same path through CG3Y to my local PC , i am able to retrieve the file.
Could you please throw some light into this as to why this is happening.

File sharing: Need to be able to edit file & save to a shared folder on a different networked iMac's HD

We have new iMac's (running OS X 10.9.1) and they are all on the same network. There is a folder on computer #1 (folder is named: 2010) with Word & Excel documents in it (we have to use those instead of Pages & Numbers) that needs to be shared and accesible by computer #2. This has been done successfully.
The problem is: When I make changes to the files from computer #2 (or if I add a folder), the files are not accesible on computer #1 any longer...you can see there are new files or folders, but you can't interact with them from computer #1 if they were created on computer #2. From computer #2, I created a folder named "2014 Ledger" in the shared folder, and when I look at the newly created folder on computer #1, it has a red dot with a minus sign in the bottom right? When I click on it, it gives me an error.
I called Apple Care, but they didn't seem to know how to be able to edit & save a shared file on one computer, but keep the main file saved to the hard drive of the other computer. We did this for years with our PC's on a network, so I guess I just figured Mac's could do it as well.
Does anyone have any suggestions of how we can access the files on computer #1 after they've been altered and saved or created on computer #2?
These screen shots are from computer #1 (the computer where the folder should be hosted on the hard drive):

Now I'm unsure if I need to change permissions to the 300GB worth of files on that external drive. (that's question #1.)
If you want to allow anyone accessing as "user" to be able to read or write all files on that volume, you could do that. You should also be able to set the volume attribute to ignore ownership:
http://www.peachpit.com/guides/content.aspx?g=mac&seqNum=256
If I look at those files from a client machine, logged in as 'user', Finder tells me they belong to 'unknown'.
I imagine that they're owned by a user with a user ID that's not present on that machine.
Question #2: If I understand correctly, the settings on the server's Sharing preferences pane only apply for ACCESS to the shared folder (i.e. they make it possible to log in via AFP).
If that were the case, there would be no need for the "Read & Write" / "Read Only" setting in the Sharing panel.

Why can't I share my files easily in a shared folder?

Let me explain more carefully. I have two Macs on a home network. I want to share a folder which is on Mac 1's hard drive so that Mac 2 can access it over the network and open any document in that folder, make changes, etc. In other words, to be able to collaborate on a document in that shared folder so that both Mac 1 and Mac 2 are treated the same. So that both users have equal, shared access to the contents of that folder.
So to do this, I go to sharing in prefs and add the folder. I set it so that everyone can read and write. I would think "everyone" covers it. So I go to Mac 2 and it can see the folder, but when Mac 2 tries to open a document, it opens with a warning that it is read only. So on Mac 2, I have to save a brand new copy of the same document with a new name. I don't want multiple copies. I want to be able to create a document on Mac 1 and tell the user on Mac 2 to go and open it.
This happens with Word documents and Final Draft documents, but with Final Draft documents, opening the doc on Mac 2 actually crashes Final Draft. The exact same document sent to Mac 2 by email opens just fine.
So what's going on and how can I set up this shared folder so that it works nice like I want it to?
Thanks.

Ordinary webspace won't do - what you get is a text file: this is the problem - MobileMe took the file published by iCal and formatted it as a calendar. Presumably if you were running your own server as indicated in the help page it would do the same; but unless 1&1 can speficially provide you with a CalDAV server it's not going to work.
Do your colleagues have Macs? For those who do, they can subscribed to a shared calendar in iCal and it couldn't be simpler. Presumably Windows owners could do the same thing in a suitable calendar program; and this is a lot simpler solution.
Another route: according to this site:
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/publish-ical-calendars-mobileme-os-server-mac/
box.net can do this for you. I seem to remember that this arose a while back, but I have a feeling that the poster then couldn't get it to work. I can't advise on that, but you might want to investigate it as an option.

Some junk files created in my shared folder

hi
i have a server 2012 r2 and I shared a folder for network access.
my clients are xp and seven.
after 1 week some junk files apeared in my folder.
I deleted them but another files apear after some days.
files name like :
2fv34
df542

Hi Reza,
Sorry for my delay.
Based on your description, I understand that some odd files are created automatically in the shared folder.
If anything I misunderstand, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Please run anti-virus software to scan the Windows Server 2012 R2 firstly.
Please let me know the type of those odd files. Or provide a screenshot of this file (please hide all protected
and private information). Meanwhile, please right click that file and select Properties. Navigate to General tab, Security tab and check if find some exceptions.
In addition, please open Control Panel on the server, select Folder Options, select View tab. There will be
two options under Hidden files and folders: Don’t show hidden files, folders, or drives and
Show hidden files, folders and drives. Please check if there has differences in those odd files when you check each option.
If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

How to locale a file without specific file name in a shared folder

Dear experts,
Is there any function module can be used to search for files in a shared folder in executing the program background? The file name is dynamic and varied. Thanks in advance.
Regards

This function module 'EPS2_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING' does not work in background.
I solve this issue by using the function module 'Z0_DIRECTORY_LISTING'. But I do not know whether this fm is available is version 4.6. Anyone is using version 4.6 and can tell me whether it exists in 4.6?

No thumbnails in Nautilus for files on a network drive (smb)

Hi,
I can not find out how to get thumbnails for movie files stored on a network drive I access through Nautilus (in Gnome 3). Local files get thumbnails, but not the files on the remote drive. This works without problems in Ubuntu, so it's obviously possible. I have of course set preview to 'Always' in the Nautilus settings.

I had a similar issue, and it turns out nautilus was using ffmpegthumbnailer instead of totem-video-thumbnailer.
And ffmpegthumbnailer doesn't seem to work with files on "smb://...". It was generating empty pngs.

Thumbnail preview not working for NEF files

Just bought a Nikon D750. Very disappointed that its NEF files don't show as thumbnails in Finder. I just get a generic thumb with NEF written in it. Nikon have a codec for Windows that cures this problem, but they haven't bothered to provide one for Mac OSX. Does anyone know of a fix please?

Lightroom does not support the Nikon D750 RAW photos at this time.
Please read this thread:
Support for Nikon D750
Just released (see the message 49 of that thread) is a DNG converter that should allow you to convert the NEF to DNG and import those into Lightroom.

Thumbnailer fails in Nautilus for images and documents

My nautilus does not show any thumbnails anymore. I didn't upgrade nautilus lately.

It just looks like that:
Well since there is a clock instead of a thumbnail I think the thumbnail is stuck in a loop.
Sometimes nautilus takes 90% CPU. But there are no errors when starting nautilus from the terminal.
I hope you can help me.

Yes for me.

After upgrade to Yosemite, drag and drop for files does not work, destination folder crashes.

After upgrading to Yosemite, dragging and dropping files from one location to the destination folder, causes the destination folder crash. However, copying the file and then moving it works fine.
I'm not sure where to report bugs, but I figured this would be the best option

How to enable Windows Explorer Thumbnail Viewer to display PSD files?

Hi,
I am using Adobe Photoshop Extended CS5 (64-Bit) on Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate (64-Bit).
When using Windows Explorer to browse through file folders, I notice that the Photoshop files (.psd) do not display a thumbnail preview, like other graphic files do. How can I enable the Windows Explorer Thumbnail Viewer to display PSD files?
Thanks for your help,
The MiJiT

Adobe software doesn't provide a 64 bit codec and as far as I know there is no freeware to do it on x64 systems.
There are two pay-for applications that I know of: Mystic Thumbs and Ardfry's PSD codec

Cannot view thumbnail previews

I jus upgraded to Acrobat Pro but now I cannot view thumbnail previews of my PDF files in Windows Explorer.
How do I activate that back again?

This is ridiculous, as every other version of Photoshop has had it, and everyone is complaining.
It has been stated that this is an OS issue.
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/no_psd_image_preview_in_photoshop_on _open_dialog_box_in_windows?page=1
Have you taken the time to complain to your OS vendor yet?
Also: This is a user to user Forum, so you are not really addressing Adobe here, even though some Adobe employees thankfully drop by.

How do I exclude directories from Finder search results? I'm trying to find the biggest FILES on my computer and it keeps showing me "Macintosh HD" as the biggest, how can I search for files of type "NOT folder/directory"?

Basically I've lost 10GB of free space over the last few weeks so my plan was to search for files modified in the last 2 weeks in order to figure out which ones are big and where that space went.
So I open finder, go to "File > Find", and enter a search:
Modified > In the last 2 weeks
All fine so far.
Problem is, it's showing whole directories as results. Which essentially means that when I order the list by size, Macintosh HD is at the top, followed by "Users", then "Applications", then one of my bigger movie files, then "Library", etc.
How can I do a search which will ignore folders? I want individual files. Knowing that Macintosh HD is the biggest item on my computer and was modified in the last 2 weeks is utterly useless to me.
Older versions of Finder in OS 9 had a feature where you could search for "files, whose type "IS NOT" folder", but OS X doesn't seem to have such a feature.
Can anyone help?

How much free space is on the HD, where has all the space gone?
OmniDiskSweeper is likely the easiest/best, and is now free...

A folder on my desktop is missing, when I search for files in the folder nothing comes up...

a folder on my desktop is missing, when I search for files that are in the folder nothing comes up! There are no items in my trash! please help!!!!

Well, now you know why you should have backed your data up. There are two kinds of computer users: those who have accidentally deleted important data in the past, and those who will do so in the future. You've just switched groups. If your data isn't backed up, it will all be lost sooner or later to boneheaded mistakes or hard drive failure. The only question is when. Good backups are cheap insurance against that day.
Now that those files have been deleted, you'll have to use data recovery software to try to salvage them, assuming the space they occupied on your hard drive hasn't yet been overwritten (a pretty good bet if they were still visible yesterday and you STOP using your computer now, to avoid overwriting them before you recover them). To do so you'll need an external hard drive and one of the following recovery utilities:
Data Rescue 3: http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
FileSalvage 7: http://subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id= 1
Both are offered in demo versions that will show you what the full version could recover before you have to pay for anything.

No thumbnails/preview in Nautilus for files in a smb shared folder.
