  • My iphone 3gs is almost 2 years old and now wont work!

    My iphone 3gs seems to be dying on its arse after use for 1 year 7 mths. Im not due for an upgrade till Feb and want to know if there is any easy fix for the problem. It hasnt been dropped or had any other king of damage to it. If i run an application, it will still shut down, even with an almost full battery and no other apps open. Only recently, it has now stopped picking up my network signal, despite checking the sim card is fine and turning the phone off and on again, does anyone have any ideas on how i can fix this?

    Have you read the User Guide and taken the basic recommended troubleshooting steps?

  • AppleScript: copy a file to a new location, changing its name

    I want to copy a selected file to a new location and change its name, both location and name adjustable by the user. It would seem natural to me (a neophyte) to use the Duplicate and Choose File Name commands to do this, so this is the module I came up with:
    tell application "Finder"
              set myFile to the selection
              set textsAlias to alias "Campidoglio:Users:jeffreyjdean:Dropbox:Tinctoris:Editing Software:TextToJS:texts:"
              set fileForConversion to choose file name default name "shortname.txt" default location textsAlias
              try
      duplicate document file myFile to fileForConversion with replacing
              on error
                        display dialog "Error: Unable to save file."
              end try
    end tell
    This doesn't work. The error dialog comes up and this is the result report:
    tell application "Finder"
      get selection
      --> {document file "12 De inventione et usu musice.txt" of folder "Edited texts" of folder "Desktop" of folder "jeffreyjdean" of folder "Users" of startup disk}
      choose file name default name "shortname.txt" default location alias "Campidoglio:Users:jeffreyjdean:Dropbox:Tinctoris:Editing Software:TextToJS:texts:"
      --> file "Campidoglio:Users:jeffreyjdean:Dropbox:Tinctoris:Editing Software:TextToJS:texts:shortname.txt"
      -- 'core'\'clon'{ 'insh':'furl'("file://localhost/Users/jeffreyjdean/Dropbox/Tinctoris/Editing%20 Software/TextToJS/texts/shortname.txt"), 'alrp':'true'("true"), '----':'obj '{ 'form':'indx', 'want':'docf', 'seld':[ 'obj '{ 'form':'name', 'want':'docf', 'seld':'utxt'("12 De inventione et usu musice.txt"), 'from':'obj '{ 'form':'name', 'want':'cfol', 'seld':'utxt'("Edited texts"), 'from':'obj '{ 'form':'name', 'want':'cfol', 'seld':'utxt'("Desktop"), 'from':'obj '{ 'form':'name', 'want':'cfol', 's…
      --> error number -1700 from {document file "12 De inventione et usu musice.txt" of folder "Edited texts" of folder "Desktop" of folder "jeffreyjdean" of folder "Users" of startup disk} to integer
      display dialog "Error: Unable to save file."
      --> {button returned:"OK"}
    end tell
    Result:
    {button returned:"OK"}
    Why is it telling me it can't duplicate a file to an integer? According to the AS Language Guide, the result of Choose File Name is "The selected location, as a file." How does this become an integer in my script?
    That may be a side show. What I really want to work out is how to achieve the aim stated at the beginning: take a selected file (that part is working OK) and duplicate it to an arbitrary location with an arbitrary new name, decided by the user. What's the best way to go about this?
    TIA,
    Jeff

    I think you're misinterpreting the error message.
    It's not complaining about your 'Choose File Name', per se.
    There are two problems with your script.
    First, you:
              set myFile to the selection
    As far as the Finder is concerned, 'selection' is a list. It's always a list, even if only one item is selected - heck, it's still a list if no files are selected... just an empty list.
    So that's the first thing the script is complaining about - you are using a list that you're trying to coerce to a file. Can't happen.
    You have a couple of options here, depending on what you want to do.
    You can tell the Finder to duplicate a list - it will simply duplicate all the files in the list. It has no problem with that, although you're going to run into problems when you try to set the file name(s). This highlights one of the design flaws with your script - how do you know the user only has one thing selected? At the very least you should check how many items are selected and react accordingly.
    The other option is to iterate through the list, duplicating each file in turn. Again, it's not clear what you want/expect the outcome to be here - since you include 'with replacing', you'd likely end up with one file (the last one in the list) as being the named file and all other duplicates lost.
    The third option is to expect there to be one item selected, and just act upon the first one - thereby ignoring multiple selections, although it's undefined as to which item is 'first' in the list.
    Your call.
    Once you get over the issue of identifying what you want to duplicate, the second issue with your script is how you're calling duplicate. You cannot duplicate one file to another file name. The duplicate command expects (demands?) a directory as the 'to' parameter, not a file name.
    In other words, you can duplicate a file to a new directory. You cannot duplicate it to a new file name - at least not in one step. In order to do that you need to duplicate the file, then change its name (or use a shell script to do it 'under the hood').
    This is complicated by the fact that it's the rename that requires you to check for duplicates, which you have to do manually.
    So given the above, and assuming you expect/want one item to be selected, your script should look more like:
    tell application "Finder"
              set myFile to item 1 of (get selection) -- ignore multiple selections
              set textsAlias to alias "Campidoglio:Users:jeffreyjdean:Dropbox:Tinctoris:Editing Software:TextToJS:texts:"
              set fileForConversion to choose file name default name "shortname.txt" default location textsAlias
              set fDir to do shell script "/usr/bin/dirname " & POSIX path of fileForConversion
              set fName to do shell script "/usr/bin/basename " & POSIX path of fileForConversion
              try
                        set newFile to duplicate myFile to POSIX file fDir with replacing
                        if (exists file fName of folder fDir) then
      delete file fName of folder fDir
                        end if
                        set name of newFile to fName
              on error
                        display dialog "Error: Unable to save file."
              end try
    end tell
    Incidentally, this is something that could be much more easily done with a shell command, since the shell isn't as sensitive about file paths and data types.

    My MacBook Pro keeps making copies of a document that I am trying to save. I don't want to duplicate the file. I only want to save it on both my hard drive and my external hard drive. I do not want to change its name for every save, which the computer seems insistent on doing. Help!!

    I did not create the file to be read-only. I created to be able to continue to add to it as I work on it.

    Sounds like a permissions problem ie read only.

  • My bookmarks mysteriously change folder names and positions in the tree

    Sometimes when I go to add a folder, it gets repeated in different places, or overwrites an existing bookmark folder and mysteriously changes its location. It is very frustrating to try and categorize bookmarks when there is some gremlin or evil elf that confuses things. Category folders get renamed yet have totally unrelated links within it. Why can't bookmarks work like with some semblance of dependability like Windows Explorer does? What the hell is going on with bookmarks?!??

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • I have a folder from today that won't let me change its name. I can change the other folders just fine. I do it routinely... any ideas what I screwed up?

    I'm as a loss. I don't understand why today's folder "2014-06-06" won't let me add "_Kim" to the end. I do it will all my folders since I download from a couple of cameras.

    sorry... in PS cc and I closed Photoshop, just in case.... it didn't make 
    any difference and it hasn't ever been an issue before.

  • Server keeps changing its name?

    Alright well this is a strange one, my server will run for about 3 or 4 days and change its name from server.local to server-2.local. The error message will say that there is another server.local on the network.
    The services that I'm running are:
    AFP, NetBoot, NFS and Software Update
    I tried to read through the logs for those services and i wasn't able to find anything. Can I just write an applescript to automatically change the server's name periodically? Or is there something simple I'm missing
    Here is a screen shot of the error:

    Hi Christopher,
    I would suggest setting a DNS name for your server. You can search on these forms for examples of setting up DNS. (In fact, I've had problems with the software update service if the server didn't have DNS setup correctly.)
    If you would like to stick with .local, try changing it's name to something completely different, like bob.local.

  • My new iMac is seen as my old Mac Pro on the network because I used Migration Assistant. How do I change its name to iMac?

    I used Migration Assistant about 4 months ago to move everything across to my new iMac. Since then instead of being recognised as an iMac it's seen on the network and other places as my Mac Pro.
    How do I change its name to iMac?
    Cheers,

    Hello David. Open System Preferences > Sharing. At the top you will see Computer Name and the old Mac Pro name. Highlight this and change to the preferred name.
    Sometimes you also need to use the Edit button under the name. But if you change the name in the first view and then press the Edit button, it should show the new name you just set.

  • IPhone 3Gs changes its name

    My iPhone 3Gs has suddently changed its name to 2012. I have restarted the iPhone, the computer (iMac Intel) and installed the latest version of iTunes (9.0.3), but the problem began with the previous version. I can sync the iPhone with iTunes and all the apps, etc. are OK. Does anybody know what could have caused this?

    There are no viruses that affect or infect OS X for 10 years running now, and the iPhone runs an optimized version of OS X.
    With the exception of a hacked/jailbroken iPhone, nothing can be installed on an iPhone from a recieved email or from a website except for a photo, and I'm unaware of any malware being included with a jpeg file. Unless you have hacked/jailbroken your iPhone which allows for installing unofficial software downloaded from unknown and untrusted sorces, you have nothing to worry about in regards to any malware.
    Unless the name of your iPhone continues to change without any interaction on your part, more than likely just an unusual quirk.

  • HT204074 Our new iphone5 id name is the same as an existing still in use iphone4 in the family; if I remove the devise; change its name can I then immediately associate it with the correct name.

    I have read the HT4627 but I think my original question is more specific  Our new iphone5 id name is the same as an existing still in use iphone4 in the family; if I remove the devise; change its name can I then immediately associate it with the correct name.

    You can change the name of a device on it via Settings > General > About > Name - you shouldn't need to remove the association and then reassociate it.

  • How to change the name / IP address and domain name for BOE Server

    Hello,
    We want to change the name / IP address and domain name for BOE Server, please could you indicate the steps or procedure to follow?
    I need your help
    thank you

    If it's 3.1 just change them, shouldn't cause any issues if by domain name you are referring to changing the domain the computer belongs to. If you are changing your domain for AD authentication then you will may have to take quite a few steps if the old domain is going away. Let us know.

    Please I'll be thankfull.

    I stated that I did try to do all of this when I first set up the new computer...I did do the Setup Assistant numerous times but my old computer kept freezing half way through.  Even if I did it when I first got the new computer back in Septemeber, I would have had the same issue b/c my old computer has been 'broken' for a while.  My old computer can't handle doing too much at once and I think the setup and then migration functions I tried were too much.  That's why I was hoping I could use the migration function piecemeal.  I wish I could just check off the exact files and folders I want vs. having to choose it at the 'user' level...that's too much for my old computer to have to transfer.
