Preparing to copy files 12,300(and counting),press stop.is anything copied?

Hey Forum,
I accidentally copied a 80gb folder from my ext. hdd onto my desktop, i only realised it when it is preparing 12,300 files(n counting). so i pressed stop. is anything copied? Am i being paranoid that something is copied? or that i am just paranoid, nothing is copied. please help, thanks!
Regards
Ala.
please help thanks!

i accidentally drag it into 'Volumes". which i cannot find where the folder'
volumes' is. so do u know where the folder ' volumes' is?
/Volumes is at the top level of your startup drive - it is "hidden" from Finder, but it's easy to peek into it:
Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder
enter /Volumes and click Go
That folder contains the "mount points" for all mounted volumes, and such mount points will have "alias" icons (with a little curved arrow). So don't touch anything there that looks like an alias!

Copying files between Iphone and PC over 3G-connection?

Hi,
Is there any application for copying files between PC and Iphone using a 3G or Edge connection? I'm using Jaadu VNC client on my Iphone but it has no functions for file transfers (as far as I know).
Thanks for any hints!

No. I don't believe that would be allowed with the SDK. You could always email them to yourself.

How can I copy file/folders from and to hard drives? How can I have two or more windows of explorer so that I can drag and drop from one hard drive to another?

Hi,
I am a new customer (purchased last week) of MacBookPro (latest) and its my first ever Apple laptop.
I am almost lost to find the operating tools.
1. How can I copy files from hard drive to computer and vis-a-versa?
2. Only can browse one but how can I have two or more browses at the same time like in MS windows?
3. No right click works on track pad?
4. Is there application/ program compatible to MS office? If so how much and how can I purchase?
5. Is there AutoCAD program that is compatible to MS Window AutoCAD? and if yes how much and how can I purchase?
I will very much appreciate if you could email me the with the solution/answers please.

1) For some reason this happens once in a while with FAT32 enabled external harddrives. I have no idea why this happens but it most easily solved by reformatting the drive. First make sure you've copied everything from the external drive to your internal harddrive. You've done this earlier so I assume you know how to do this.
Now the reformatting part. Open Finder and go to Applications. Look for the folder called "Utilities". Click on it. In it you find a program called "Disk Utility". Click on it. Now look for the external drive. You probably see two entries for the disk. Click on the one that contains the name of the drive NOT the one that describes the disk (Like for example 320.07 GB Samsung S2 Portable Media).
Now you see four tabs in the righthand part of the window. They're called "First Aid", "Erase", "RAID" and "Restore". Click on "Erase". This opens the tab with (amongst others) a dropdownbox (Format) and a textbox (Name) . In the dropdownbox select "Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Take note! This selection disables usage of the drive with Windows PC's. If your goal is to share the drive with Windows PC's select the MS-DOS FAT option.
Enter a label for the drive in the textbox Name. Now click on the button "Erase". This will format the drive.
Now when it's done you can copy back all the items you've copied to your internal harddrive earlier.
2) Opening two windows like Explorer on Windows is opening two Finder windows on the Mac. Simply click on the background. In the menubar you items like 'Finder", "File", "Edit", "View", et cetera. Click on "File" and "New Finder Window". Do this two times. Alternatively you can click on the background and press CMD-N two times.
3) You can right click on the trackpad. This however depends on if you've enabled the feature in System Preferences. In the topmenubar click on the Apple icon and select "System Preferences". Now look for Trackpad in Hardware. Click on it. You see three tabs with the names "Point & Click", "Scroll & Zoom" and "More Gestures". Select "Point & Click" and look for "Secondary Click'. Make sure it is checked and make sure it has written "Click or tap with two fingers" written beneath "Secondary Click". When you're done exit System Preferences. Now select the background and tap with two fingers on the trackpad. This should open the contextuel menu with options like "New Folder", "Get Info" et cetera.

I have a windows vista pc and want to use migration assistant to copy files over. From what I understand, it will copy over my user profile and settings as well. Is there anyway to just copy files?

Hey everyone, I just bought a new macbook pro 13-inch (late 2011 model) and I want to use migration assistant to copy over my photos, iTunes library, documents, etc. I know this can be done wirelessly or by connecting the two computers by Ethernet cable (windows vista pc --> macbook pro). Which is faster?
I also have heard that using migration assistant copies over the user file as well and makes it the new one on the mac. I would only like to copy over files, not user settings. How do I do this?
Thanks!
P.S. I'm assuming that when my iTunes library is copied, the mp3 files are copied too. Could someone please confirm this?

Copying files between iPod and PC

I have iTunes running on my G5, and I want to copy files from the iPod to my computer, is this possible? If not, then why not? It seems like an obvious option, yet my computer won't allow it. I'm quite angry about this, as I intended to use my iPod as a storage system anyway... this is frustrating me significantly.

Do you mean files in general or songs from the iPod to iTunes? If you want to use it as a removable drive then enable it for disk use. When connected it will mount on the desktop and you can open it in Finder: Using your iPod as a storage drive
If you want to transfer songs from it and you have any iTMS purchases, the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article:: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
If you prefer something more automated there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

Problem Copying Files using Drag and Drop in Finder

When I try to copy files from a camera's SD disk into a folder in Finder, it always seems to copy the files to some other location other than the folder I drag and dropped to. And then, when I try to redo the drag and drop, I get a message that these files already exist in the desired folder, even though I don't see them there!
Also when I create a new folder in Finder, it never places the new folder under the folder I've currently highlighted.
I'd love to hear whats going on here!

What Finder "view" option are you using, List, Icons, Columns, or Cover Flow, for this question and the one below? Are you dragging those photos onto the icon of a closed folder or somewhere else? Please describe the exact process that you're executing.
Also when I create a new folder in Finder, it never places the new folder under the folder I've currently highlighted.
When you say "under", do you mean "within"? A new folder will be placed in the folder that's open.

Copy files over network and preserve original date modified/created

This problem originally cropped up when importing photos into iphoto. I copied all my pics across the network and stored them locally then imported them into iPhoto. Problem was, any pics that did not have EXIF data were sorted by iPhoto, by date created...which was the date they were copied to the Mac.
I got around that by trashing the iPhoto Library, then importing the photos over the network. The dates on the pics were correct on the Windows machine till the copy process changed them.
is there a way to copy across the network and keep all the file attributes as they are on the original..An archive type feature.
I had thought of RsyncX, but have not used that yet from within the Mac.
Is there a way from within Finder to copy and keep attributes? or a third party app?
Neil

zip the folder with your pictures (control-click on it and choose "compress folder"), copy the zip files to the remote computer and unzip it there. this will preserve the modified and created dates.

Using cfhttp, copied file is appended and original is overwritten

I'm not sure if its the cfhttp configuration or if this is a problem with the webdav server configuration.
Here's my CF code:
<cftry>
        <cfhttp method="put" url="https://#Application.psupload.Webdavserver##Application.psupload.Filetxt#" username="clb39" password="5wimF1shco" throwonerror="yes" path="#Application.psupload.Pathtxt#" multipart="Yes" timeout="30000">
            <cfhttpparam type="file" name="#Application.psupload.Filetxt#" file="#Application.psupload.Pathtxt##Application.psupload.Filetxt#">
        </cfhttp>
        <cfset Application.psupload.msg="#Application.psupload.msg# Webdav Success<br>">
        <cfcatch>
            <cfset Application.psupload.msg="#Application.psupload.msg# Webdav Failure<br>">
        </cfcatch>
    </cftry>
It looks like a 'return code' that overwrites the original file:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>201 Created</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Created</h1>
<p>Resource /[removed]/Upload_1103080403.txt has been created.</p>
<hr />
<address>Apache/2.2.15 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.15 OpenSSL/0.9.7d DAV/2 Server at [removed] Port 8[removed]0</address>
</body></html>
The copied file is made correctly, but some how 4 lines are added, and the 3rd one has this string each time:
-------------------------------7d0d117230764--
Any thoughts? Is it cfhttp or Webdav?
TIA,
CB

The end result was bad coding. The proper format:
        <cfhttp method="put" url="https://#Application.psupload.Webdavserver##Application.psupload.Filetxt#" username="*" password="**************" throwonerror="yes">
            <cfhttpparam type="file" name="#Application.psupload.Filetxt#" file="#Application.psupload.Pathtxt##Application.psupload.Filetxt#" mimetype="text/plain">
        </cfhttp>
The original code was wrong b/c:
path="#Application.psupload.Pathtxt#" - should be the return message path, ie log of transaction. By setting it equeal to the file to be copied, it gets overwritten.
I did run into an additional issue creating the export file with an extra carriage return and line being added to the end of the file - this was a problem with cfloop and was resolved by 2 cfloop statements to the file, first writing queryrecords-1 and second just writing the last record in query without a new line
Sample Code:
<cftry>
                <cfloop query="Pending" startrow="1" endrow="#(Pending.recordcount)-1#>
                    <cffile action="append"
                    file="#Application.psupload.Pathtxt##Application.psupload.Filetxt#"
                    output="#TRIM(UniqueAppID)#--- cut for clarity"
                    addnewline="yes">
                </cfloop>
                <cfset Application.psupload.msg="#Application.psupload.msg# multi Local txt File populated sucessfully<br>">
                    <cftry>
                        <cfloop query="Pending" startrow="#pending.recordcount#" endrow="#pending.recordcount#">
                            <cffile action="append"
                                 file="#Application.psupload.Pathtxt##Application.psupload.Filetxt#"
                                 output="#TRIM(UniqueAppID)#-- cut for clarity"
                                 addnewline="no">
                            </cfloop>
                        <cfset Application.psupload.msg="#Application.psupload.msg# multi Local txt File completed sucessfully<br>">
                            <cfcatch>
                                <cfset Application.psupload.msg="#Application.psupload.msg# multi Local txt File Last record Failed<BR>">
                            </cfcatch>
                    </cftry>
                <cfcatch>
                    <cfset Application.psupload.msg="#Application.psupload.msg# multi Local txt File population Failed<BR>">
                </cfcatch>
            </cftry>
Doing this mean I also need to control for when Pending has only 1 record, which other code handles.

Source monitor and programm monitor stopped displaying anything

Hey there,
I'm a CS6 Production Premium user and in severe trouble here: I'm working on a big 1080p AVC-Intra50 project for a client that is due next monday. I'm close to completion, but a couple of days ago, the source monitor stopped displaying video. It would show a still as I loaded in a clip, but as soon as I played back, the source monitor simply went black. The clip was playing though and audio can be heard. Not that big a problem, I thought, and simply used the program monitor for playback. But yesterday, the same thing happened to the program monitor as well. But not just that: Even the stills are gone now. Both monitors remain black at all times, even though playback and sound still work. So I got curious and tried different materials and different projects: AVCHD, DNxHD, even JPEGS, nothing shows on either monitors, regardless of the resolution. Still, everything works just fine on my laptop.
So I completely uninstalled the entire Creative Suite, used the Clean Script multiple times, including reboots, deleted all remaining files from user and windows directories and updated all my hardware to the latest drivers. Nothing. Both monitors remain black and useless. I didn't change anything to my Adobe setup, nor my hardware or software configuration while this error occured. I searched the web for hours and I'm completely at my wits' end. Any suggestions?
My system:
Windows 7 x64
Intel Core i7 2600k
8 GB RAM
ATi 6870

I did purge the entire cache and database. Didn't help.
EDIT: I'm sorry, I only purged the database. Now, that I deleted all cached media files manually, the programm monitors is working again, but the source monitor is still out.
EDIT 2: Okay, now stuff is getting really weird: So the program monitor was working again. I continued editing for a bit, then put the program monitor into full screen and it went black again. Even when I went back to the normal size, it remains black, BUT, now the source monitor was working again. So I put the source monitor intro full screen and it went black again and both monitors stayed black.
So after deleting the media cache, I had the program monitor working again. After full screen use, it went balck, but the source monitor was working. After full screen use on the source monitor, both monitors are black again. What is going on?!

How exactly is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library? In other words, what options do you have selected/enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music tabs for the iPod in iTunes. To access the Summary tab, plug the iPod in and select it from under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes. To move onto the Music tab, select the Music tab along the top part of the window.
As for the grayed out tracks, there may have been an issue during the sync process. The best thing to do is remove all the music from your iPod and resync it.

After a backup all music files are invisible and iTunes don't see anything

Hi,
I got a very strange problem and I'm really lost.
I made a backup of my portable iTunes libray (using a 160 GB Maxtor one touch 4 mini usb) on another backup disk (750 GB Maxtor onetouch III firwire 800). I have my library on a external disk to safe disk space on my MacBook Pro disk. For the back up I use the software Personal Backu4 of Intego Software. The 160GB iTunes disk is Formatted als Mac OS Extended format.
Now all back up data that aren't music files (AAC or MP3 files) was correctly back up, but all music files was like deleted, all artist > album folders looks empty. But, cheking with the disk utility it looks that all files exist and the Used space (36.06 GB) looks correctly and the numbers of files too (some 5942 files). But all files are invisible, folders looks empty. Now is looks that all purchased and CD imported int my library didn't exist anymore: and this in BOTH disks, side by side is the same situation.
How I can come out from this situation, I really don't have any idea how to coming out fron this sad situation.
Hany help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance!

OK, here's what REALLY doesn't make sense.
After manually fixing a lost file, NOTHING in the XML changes. Not one single character changes in the XML file. I diff'd the whole file before and after - no difference. So, basically, it goes out and 'finds' it and updates something that we can't see to repair the connection, meanwhile we are left to think that this XML file has the library data in it.
Mind you, the media file(s) are present and accounted for in the file system - correct name and path and everything - before and after I go Locate the file when iTunes complains about it being missing..
iTunes is so overbloated, we can't even fix stuff when we see precisely how it is broken.

Adding Form pages via JS and templates. Stop text from copying to the new page

Hello Community,
Over the past few days I've been getting a crash course in Adobe acrobat, and JavaScript. One of our clients asked us to make a PDF form with fillable fields, and a button that will make a new copy of the form.
I have the text fields, template, and javascript for the button to load the template.
My problem is that text in the fields on the first page is being copied to the additional pages when they are made.
I have been doing a ton of research and found a lot of answerrs talking about having the fields renamed. I have included the bRename part to my JS, and the text fields show that they are a differnet name, but it still pulls the data from the first page.
here is the script I am using. I am also runing Acrobat X standard.
var a = this.getTemplate("New Page");
a.spawn({bRename: true});
Any suggestions would be a huge help. I can provide any additional info needed.

You can reset the fields on the newly created page. All of the fields on the page will have the prefix "Pn" where n is the page number of the newly created page. Since your code adds the page at the end, the code to reset the fields that you can use after the code that spawns the template can be:
resetForm(["P" + (numPages - 1)]);
