Notes & .txt files

I have an annoying issue with both Pages and Textedit. Both applications don't have an option to save a file as a simple text file or .txt. The best Textedit can do is rtf and if I just change the suffix I get all the rich text information that I don't want and my Nano can't read.
the 5th gen. nano manual states .txt files when none of my text applications can save in that format. Thus anything I put in my notes folder is terribly confusing with all that nonsense useless information that the iPod can't use. Any ideas or workarounds would be appreciated.

Thanks for the response. I looked at it and it was useful where they suggest to make plain text in Textedit, but I have already found another solution myself. You do what you need in Pages then export as a text file and this works too. Now I am trying to find out what is the largest font size I can use in these notes. That latter piece of information still eludes me.

  • NOTES: txt files only copy partially on iPod

    I have a large book (Notre Dame de Paris, Victor Hugo) I wish
    to copy on my iPod. The .txt file is quite long but when I copy
    it in NOTES on my iPod the text suddenly stops after a few paragraphs
    when I read it from my iPod.
    I did save the text in PLAIN TEXT in TEXT EDIT before so I don't
    think there are any invisible characters causing problems.
    And I don't see any special icons enabling me to pass from one page to the next.
    (Like there was only one page). How do you make iPods recognize long texts
    and how will it separate the file into different pages for viewing ?
    Thank you

    The iPod will only display the first 4096 (4kB) characters, regardless of how large the note is.
    And I don't see any special icons enabling me to pass from one page to the next. (Like there was only one page).
    There is only one page in a plain text note since special charaters (such as page/form feed) are not used.

  • I have a VI and an attched .txt data file. Now I want to read the data from the .txt file and display it as an array in the front panel. But the result is not right. Any help?

    The problem is in the delimiters in your text file. By default, Read From Spreadsheet File.vi expects a tab delimited file. You can specify a delimiter (like a space), but Read From Spreadsheet File.vi has a problem with repeated delimiters: if you specify a single space as a delimiter and Read From Spreadsheet File.vi finds two spaces back-to-back, it stops reading that line. Your file (as I got it from your earlier post) is delimited by 4 spaces.
    Here are some of your choices to fix your problem.
    1. Change the source file to a tab delimited file. Your VI will then run as is.
    2. Change the source file to be delimited by a single space (rather than 4), then wire a string constant containing one space to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi.
    3. Wire a string constant containing 4 spaces to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi. Then your text file will run as is.
    Depending on where your text file comes from (see more comments below), I'd vote for choice 1: a tab delimited text file. It's the most common text output of spreadsheet programs.
    Comments for choices 1 and 2: Where does the text file come from? Is it automatically generated or manually generated? Will it be generated multiple times or just once? If it's manually generated or generated just once, you can use any text editor to change 4 spaces to a tab or to a single space. Note: if you want to change it to a tab delimited file, you can't enter a tab directly into a box in the search & replace dialog of many programs like notepad, but you can do a cut and paste. Before you start your search and replace (just in the text window of the editor), press tab. A tab character will be entered. Press Shift-LeftArrow (not Backspace) to highlight the tab character. Press Ctrl-X to cut the tab character. Start your search and replace (Ctrl-H in notepad in Windows 2000). Click into the Find What box. Enter four spaces. Click into the Replace With box. Press Ctrl-V to paste the tab character. And another thing: older versions of notepad don't have search and replace. Use any editor or word processor that does.

  • When I try to run a FindChangeByList.jsx in InDesignCS4, it will not let me select a txt file

    Hi all,
    I have a 100 page document that uses two javascript FindChange queries to cleanup an imported XML file. I've been using the same cleanup files for years and they have worked just fine. (I still only open it in CS4 because I've had some issues when trying to use this XML/Find-Change combo in CS5 and 6.) The only difference is my computer has been upgraded, the apps reinstalled, and I am now running 10.9.5
    I can import the XML just fine into my template, but when I double click on FindChangeByList.jsx, select Document, hit OK, nothing happens. I do not get a second dialog box asking me to choose my txt cleanup file.
    I only run this job once a year, so it's possible I am doing something wrong. I've place copies of my txt files in as many scripts folders as I can find on my computer, but they are greyed out in the FIndChange Support folder within InDesign.
    Please help, this is the only way to fix this XML!

    Hi,
    2 things:
    1. Assuming your script is original - it is not asking for a TXT file till it is found in expected location. You can choose between 2 solutions:
         to remove FindChangeList.txt from FindChangeSupport folder ==> script will ask for another file
         to override this file by your query ==> script will not ask but execute your query
    2. You can see greyed TXT files in Script Panel since this panel shows executable files (script's formats)

  • Could not process file 'Input 110110b.txt': com.sap.aii.adapter.file.

    I have a FILE Adapter using FTP as a transport that is generating a very odd error.
    The FTP sender channel is giving the following error is set up to retreive all files (*) from a specific directory.  If you look at the error, it indicates an error processing the file 'Input 110110b.txt' as a file -- the only way this filename woudl be visible is if the adapater interrogated the directory, or the filename was hard-coded in the file mask.  But the error indicates it can't change to the directory.  The only way it would have come up with the file is if it had already CD'd t that directory.
    1/7/11 8:12:01 AM   Retry interval started. Length: 60.0 seconds
    1/7/11 8:12:01 AM   Could not process file 'Input 110110b.txt': com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 Failed to change directory.
    1/7/11 8:12:00 AM   Processing started
    My first thought was a simple permission issue, so I opened a connection to server with FileZilla (an FTP client) and was able to retrieve the file without a problem.  I was also able to drop a file in the directory.  There is no permissions problem.

    Hi
    Please check the below points before processing any file
    a) check the File placing by a Local Plant FTP owner is using the same authentification credentials It means both PI and source team needs to use same FTP User ID and login credentials otherwise if suppose if source team is placing with one User and PI cannot able to pick that file as this User cannot have permissions in this case also u will get 550 error
    b) I know what ur telling is u manualy palced one file and able retrive...but do one thing u can login with same PI FTP login server credentials and then place the file with different name also I suggest lets test the channel by simply keeping
    . not simply * if you keep simply * then u cna use in receiver chanel while using dynamic connfiguration.
    Else give *.txt and then activate the channel and also please check the CACHE as well

  • Address Book NOT accepting csv.txt file as import from EARTHLINK web mail

    Greetings. Unsuccessful thus far in importing e-addresses from Earthlink Web Mail to MAC Address Book. Found preferences and saved Earthlink addresses as csv.txt file but AB rejected as not true csv. Apple suggested conversion to V cards but could not find that option in Earthlink-ville. Perused Allan's post on synching with Total Access but fear accidentally installing stuff on my MACbook Pro from that application that is unneccessary or will screw up my new MAC world. Although in the long run, having Web mail back up my MAC makes sense. (Work and husband remain PC/ XP.)
    Any solutions you can offer will be much appreciated.
    Macbook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Thanks again. Okay, I pasted a portion of the csv file . I might be mistaken here, but I don't think these are V card format and perhaps converting them to V cards is what I'd have to do. But I would need pretty explicit directions.
    Regards,

  • Why is a .txt file not visible on iPod Classic in its entirety once the iPod is disconnected from the desktop?

    I have enabled my iPod Classic for disc use; and previously successfully transferred .txt files.  The latest .txt file is fully visible on the iPod while the iPod is connected to the desktop, but once the iPod is disconnected only about 20% is visible.  It is as though the wheel will rotate no further to reveal the rest.  There is masses of free space on the iPod.

    Only the first 4000 characters of a longer note will appear from the device itself.

  • Why when I open the output.txt file, is strange code there, not 3.1

    i almost copy the example from "think in java book" chapter 11
    however, the result "output.txt file" when opened by notepad of windows xp, always only very strange code inside, not what i want
    do i need open the file, before i want to write?
    or i use a wrong api again?
    or the java code norm is very difference from ms windows?
    thanks
    import java.util.Random;
    import java.io.*;
    class CreatRandomFile
         public static void main(String args[])throws IOException
              File fileOutput=new File("output.txt");
              DataOutputStream out2=
                   new DataOutputStream(
                        new BufferedOutputStream(
                             new FileOutputStream(fileOutput)));
              out2.writeDouble(3.1);
              out2.close();
         }//end main
    }//end class

    There are basically two ways of IO:
    a) human readable format;
    b) machine readable format;
    What you've just done is writing a double value in machine readable
    format to a file. Some folks call it 'binary format'. I bet your file is eight
    byes long. A DataOutputStream writes data in machine readable
    format. You need a PrintStream instead if you (a being human I suppose)
    want to be able to read the contents of that file.
    kind regards,
