Permission issues with files put on desktop by Vista

Hi Folks,
I posted this before and got no response so I'm trying again.
Trying to finally solve an issue that has dogged me ever since upgrading to Lion in the summer. Since installing Lion 10.7 (clean install), I now seem to be having File Sharing issues with a fellow colleague who is on Vista. When trying to open a file placed on my desktop by this user (who has been set up as a "real" network user in Sys Prefs) I get the following message:
"You do not have permission to open the document "Some_Image.jpg".
Contact your computer or network administrator for assistance.
I have to do the following In order to gain access:
1. Unlock small lock icon in bottom right of Get Info Window
2. Enter Password in dialog that says "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this."
3. Click the now enabled plus sign below list
4. Select my self from the list of users
5. Change privilege to "Read & Write" in Privilege column adjacent to my user name.
Both Vista Machines do this to me although Windows 7 does not. UPDATE: one user has updated his vista install to WIndows 7 and I have this problem again.
I had hoped that the 10.7.3 update would have fixed this problem for me as I read that the update addresses some Networking issues, but it hasn't.
Any thoughts here?
Thank you,
J.E. Flynn

Oddly enough, I can't even seem to provide "Write Only (Drop Box)" access to the Windows clients.
My limited understanding of Widows networking and sharing is starting to rear it's ugly head.
If I set up File Sharing and give the windows client access to a shared folder. It can copy files but still I do not have access to those (as described above).
The only way I can get a Windows machine to access my Mac is for them to type my computers local IP in the Explorer address bar " \\192.168.1.XX " and login as me. Obviously, this is not desirable
All other attempts to login from a Windows client are now failing.

  • Issue with File Download(messageDownload) on Search Page.

    Hi,
    I created a custom OAF search page which fetches values from one table. The document in getting stored in my custom table in a BLOB colums and NOT in FND_LOBS.
    The table has 3 collumns along with others:
    1st is primary key (Record_Seq) ==> number data type
    2nd to store actual file name (File1Name) ==> varcahar2 data type
    3rd to store the actual uploaded data (File1Data) ==> BLOB data type
    The reason for having the “File1Name” is so that I can display the original file name of the document that was uploaded, instead of just the “view” in the search page results .
    On the File1Data BLOB and created a messageDownload for that under query results table with following details:
    ID : File1Data
    ItemStyle : messageDownload
    FileMIME Type : pdf
    Datatype : BLOB
    View Instance : LacEmpExposureVO1
    view Attribute : File1Name
    File View Attribute : File1Data
    When I click on the "File1Name" data hyperlink, it is opening only the first document corresponding to the first record in the search page results.
    For example, If my search page returns 10 rows then when I click on the file1name on any row, It is open the first row file name only.
    I have a primary key column(RECORD_SEQ) in the Table / EO / VO which is displayed in the search page results.
    Also one weird thing is happening:
    If I try to do this more than 2 times then it is opening the update page with the first record from the search page results…
    I tried to print the context and it is nul the first time, But the second time then context is changing to "update". Dont know how this is happening????
    Any advice is greatly appreciated as it is very crucial for me to get this resolved ASAP. I have looked at several forums and did a lot of things as advised in the forums . But nothing seems to work for me.
    Thanks,

  • Issue with file to file in PI 7.3 (Splitting huge files)

    Hi All,
    Need your help in fixing the issue with file splitting
    We are doing some sample scenarios(file to file) on PI 7.3 server.
    We are trying to split a 10MB file by using the 'Advanced Mode' option in the sender file adapter. We gave max split file size as 2MB. The file got split into 5 chunks and was successfully sent to receiver file adapter. In receiver adapter we are able to see that. But in the target folder only 1 file was seen with size 2MB. All other chunks were missing. We need to have the whole data sent from source to target.
    How to fix this issue? please provide your inputs.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Lakshmi Narayana

    PI 7.3 has capable of processing larger size files.
    Questions:
    Have you picked EOIO quality of service? Hope you dont do mapping or content conversion for this file?

  • Issue with file name in receiver Communication channel

    Hi Experts,
      I am sending the files from SAP Application server to third party Application server.
    In my source folder i have different types of files with different names.
    but i need to pickup the files which is coming as of type sss_3300_was.txt and sss_3400_was.txt.
    what would be the logic for this.what my understanding is if i put sss_* it will works.
    If suppose the file is Exist in the folder as sss_3300_was.txt , so it will picked up and places in target folder.
    and next time if the file type is sss_3400_was.txt then that will pick up and places in the target folder.
    my question is, in the receiver comm channel what would be the file name scheme. i have tried with * and / but system has not been accepted as * can not be given.
    Kindly suggest what should i put in Receiver CommChanne file name sheme.
    Appreciate your inputs
    Thanks,
    Bhaskar

    Hi Satish,
    Thanks for your valuable inputs.
    Actually i need to change the subjet when i am asking other question...
    first thing is suppose i have 10 files like sss_3100_was, sss_3300_was, sss_3400_was........sss_3900_was  in the sender application folder and should be moved to receiver [target] folder with the same name.
    as you said mentioned above below is my undertsanding, please correct me if i am wrong.
    In sender cc
    1.  i will give file name as sss_*
    2. i will flag ASMA and also check file name.
    In receiver cc
    1. I will give file name as sss_*
    2. i will flag ASMA and also check the file name
    The above is my understanding with respect to your inputs,  is it correct?
    in receiver cc i have tried file name scheme as sss_*  but when i see the receiver CC log its telling that * is not allowed.
    may be i have not flaged ASMA at that time, but now i will flag ASMA in receiver CC dose it works? just need to confirm from you.
    Regarding seconf issue.
    when file is picking up from the source folder from SAP Application server as i can see file is picking up well and posting in third party folder and even in the sender cc and receiver cc logs i could see all shown in success.But when i see in the SXMB_MONI in the inbound interface the data are coming in the special charater format like @$??? and so on.But when i checked in SAP Appl server the same file contains the three lines of data like material number purchase order number and so on and it is Text file.
    below mentioned are done configs for sender CC by me.
    MP: file
    TP: NFS [as  it is SAP appl server]
    filepath:/
    file name: sss_*
    file type :text
                   add time stamp
                   ..... and so on
    Kindly advise me if any changes are required and also provide me inputs in case any correction.
    Thanks,

  • Permission Issue with Adobe Bridge

    Hello Support,
    We are an all mac environment, and we are trying to import and export templates of metadata from Adobe Bridge. The files we are accessing are on a file server on our network. When making changes to metadata using Adobe Bridge we are getting permission denied. The permissions are fine, as we can add, delete, and modify files in the same server directories using finder or other applications. This has happened in the past and the resolution was to create a a whole new profile on the local mac.The new profile then had no issues with importing and exporting metadata. However, this is now the third time we have had to create a new profile on the local mac to resolve this permission issue within Adboe Bridge. We are running Adobe Bridge CS5 version 4.0.0.5.2.9. We are wondering if there is a permanent solution to this, seeing as we do not want to have to re-create a new profile every 3-4 months. Could there be a setting in Adobe that we need to edit or anything else that would avoid us having to re-create the profile? Thanks in advance for all advice to this issue.

    any help at all would be gladly appreciated. Also, is there a phone number or chat support with Adobe support that anyone can provide?

  • Permission issue with external hard drive

    Hi,
    I have an external hard drive that has a bunch of video and audio files on it. Any time I try to open any file from the drive, regardless of file type, the application it's supposed to open it says it can open. Most of the people I have talked to have said that it's a permission issue and have not had a solution for this. Looking for any suggestions on how to repair these permissions. Disk utility has been no help and when running recovery software like Data Rescue the files come out in the end with the same issues.
    Thanks.

  • Any issues with file sharing between Windows and latest Mac client?

    We're running Lync 2013. My Windows client is 15.0.4551.1005. Mac client is version 14.0.8.
    I open a conversation with a coworker on his Mac. I then try to share a png file. He clicks accept but then my client says the attempt timed out, and his client says that I canceled the file transfer. The coworker then boots the Mac into Windows and we try
    again, and the file share works fine. When I jump on my Mac, I can send files to his Mac without issue. When he tries to send from his Mac to my PC it fails, but when he tries to send from Windows on his Mac to my PC, it works.
    I can't find anything specific in the logs that would indicate a firewall issue. Is there a bug with file sharing between the Mac and PC clients?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    No, There isn't a bug with file sharing between Mac and Pc client.

  • Issues with file sharing after changing password

    Last night I changed my system password on my MacBook Pro and for some reason it caused some issues with my file sharing with my windows PC.
    I was able to finally get the notebook to connect again to the XP PC shared documents by going through finder to go to network and then connected. But the PC would not see the notebook. Everything was communicating fine when I first got the system two weeks ago.
    Tech support did what they could tonight and I finally just decided to set up a connection to my notebook by entering the notebooks ip address on the pc.
    It's alte and sorry for the rambling, but does anyone know why the pc (as well as others in the house) no longer see the notebook?

  • SL Server Permission Issues with Windows XP Clients

    I'm running into some permissions issues with Snow Leopard Server. I know it's specific to SL Server because I have two Leopard servers and neither one is affected. All servers are set up the same way.
    I'm using this SL server as a file server in the golden triangle approach: AD for Users, OD for Groups that supply AD User membership. I have one volume per OD group, and that group has read/write privileges to that volume via the default Server Admin read/write ACL. POSIX permissions are 770 on the top level directory, and ownership is set to the AD user who owns the volume, and the OD group the volume belongs to.
    The client is XP SP3. When the client accesses a share on the SL server, their access is correctly granted and they can browse the share and read any files inside the share. They can copy files to the share from wherever. They can open, edit, and save files. However, they cannot rename or delete files within the share. They cannot rename folders, but can delete them. This affects all AD users regardless of the OD group they're in.
    I have a few Windows 7 and Vista clients on the network, and these two OS's are not affected by this so the problem is limited to XP. If I create a user in OD, and auth to the sever from the XP client as that user, the problem goes away, so it's something to do with AD and SMB.
    I do have a ticket in with Apple support, which was escalated to Engineering. Still waiting on that.
    Things I have tried that have not worked/helped:
    -Modify the ACL to Full Privileges
    -Tried removing/re-adding user to OD group.
    -Remove darwin_streams from vfs_objects in smb.conf
    stream support = no
    ea support = yes/no (tried both ways)
    darwin_streams:brlm = no
    -Added nt acl support = no to smb.conf
    per http://bit.ly/6aYycW
    -Animal sacrifice..... ??
    Help?

    I need to do more testing, but I think the fix is to add "acl check permissions = no" to the bottom of /etc/smb.conf:
    ; Site-specific parameters can be added below this comment.
    [global]
    acl check permissions = no

    It seems to be a permission issue. Just open the permission editor of the system and assign the everyone group to it. Select the checkbox corresponding to end-user. save it.
    It will solve ur problem.

  • Issues with file upload in flex mobile application (sharepoint as backend)

    Hello,
    I am working on flex mobile application for android platform for which we are having sharepoint as a backend.
    (Flex SDK 4.6 and AIR 3.9)
    Issue which we are facing is as follows:
    We are communicating with the backend server using webservices: example:
    <s:WebService id="kWebService" wsdl="http://www.kservice.net/kdatabaseservice.asmx?WSDL" >
                <s:operation name="AddPost"

                             fault="postsfaulterr(event)" />
    </s:WebService>
    Above services are working fine but we are facing issue with one service which is related to file upload.
    File upload for <10 MB is working fine but when we try to upload larger file on server it fails to process.
    We are sending bytearray to the backend and backend code is writing those bytearray into file.
    We have tried many ways to overcome from this situation. like we have checked configuration for file upload size on server , we have tried wcf services as well. Please help us on this criticle point as soon as possible

    What do you mean that my video saves the contents int he server and not in transparent table?  I save the data into a temporary database table so it can be accessed by the parent WDA session. From there the WDA session can do whatever it wants with it.  What do you mean by transparent table - that would be a database table. Do you actually mean internal table?  if so, just read the data from the temporary database table into memory.

  • Permissions issues with files from a zip

    We've got five macs on a network, all on 10.5.6. Clients often send us folders with files in as a single zip. If the zip file is opened, the folder and files all have read/Write permission for the user that opened the zip, and all other macs have "no access". This happens with all the macs. The zip files are sent from PCs.
    Has anyone any idea as to why this should happen, and a possible fix?
    Cheers
    Steve

    im now trying this method instead, it kind of works, but reads in all files (I just wanted XML files), and Im sure its not the best method for this:
    public void readZipXMLFiles(String inFilename)
    try {
            // Open the ZIP file
            ZipInputStream in = new ZipInputStream(new FileInputStream(inFilename));
            // Get the first entry
            ZipEntry entry;
            entry = in.getNextEntry();
            while (entry != null){
            // Open the output file
            String entryName = entry.getName();
            String outFilename = entryName;
            OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(outFilename);
            CheckExtension("xml", entry.getName());
            // this check the file extension, if correct FileType=true
            System.out.println(entry.getName()+ ":" + FileType);
            if (FileType == true){
            // Transfer bytes from the ZIP file to the output file
            byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
            int len;
            while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
                out.write(buf, 0, len);
            // Close the streams
            entry = in.getNextEntry();
            out.close();
            in.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            catch (Exception e)
                e.printStackTrace();

  • Please help! Issues with file permissions on the 'Edit' file created by LR for editing in Photoshop?

    I am running a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion. I use a Netgear ReadyNas as my storage device. I can Save, Re Save, Delete and add files without any concern on the ReadyNas from within PS or LR. However when I use the 'Edit in Photoshop" command on LR. I chose the 'Edit a copy with edits', LR creates the new duplicate 'edit' file in the same directory as the original. It opens in PS, I edit as required, however when I save the file to return to LR, I am informed that the file is locked and that I need to edit settings on file or folder, even though the settings are working for all other edits etc. I have had Netgear on this for 3 hours this evening and they cannot see any issues with the setting on the ReadyNas. Does anyone know what permissions are changed or why they are changing when the file is being created by LR?
    Sorry bit of a long winded one - but I hope that all makes sense?

    h264 is highly compressed and might be the reason your skimming isn't smooth, it may also take a bit more time to convert. I don't have to worry all that much about space so I haven't particularly tried it and can't say whether there are any drawbacks of doing so.
    If you google 'mpegstreamclip tutorials', you will see quite a few tutorials you can look at, they do tend to be specific to one task which may not exactly fit in with what you are trying to do, but looking at a few might give you a better understanding of what some options do and when to use them if at all.

    I'm running gnome and I would like to have the suspend option in the shutdown menu as a regular usar.  Suspend works via pm-suspend, but its annoying to have to go through a terminal to put the laptop to sleep. 
    I checked the "can suspend" box in gconf editor, but I still don't have the option in gnome.  I think its a permission issue, I'm just not sure how to fix it.  I added the the regular user to the power group and I followed the pm-utils guide in the wiki.  Has dealt and/or solved this issue?

  • Issues with file locking when reading a file using RollingFile Appender

    Hi,
    I am facing a file Rotation Issue with log4j. I want a way to read one file from two diff apps.
    Intro: App A is writing a file F using log4j rolling file appender and app B is reading the same file F using “new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(_file)))”.
    Issue: App A is not able to roll the file. Because it is having a handle on the same file F.
    Please let me know how can I handle this issue.

    If you have the file open for reading when log4j tries to rename it, the rename will fail. Solution: don't have the file open for reading.
    I want to read the feed of such rolling logs without closing any handle.I gave you a solution to that too.
    If I am closing the handle after every read then there will be no way to determine where I left.Nobody suggested that.
    Is there any possible solution for this?What part of the solution I have already posted didn't you understand?
