Problem in moving files

Hi everyone !
Since I've installed SL I've noticed that there's a bug when I move files from one folder to another. Normally, when you move the file with the mouse and you drag it to a folder and stay on it, the folder should open in a new window, but it's not the case... I don't know what to do...
Can someone help me ? Thx.

Hi:
When you get a chance, please mark the thread "solved."

  • Pathway problem when moving files in PSE

    I use PSE 6.0 and recently had to reload my operating system (OS).  After reloading my OS I reinstalled PSE 6.0 and restored my catalog to a new location on my hard drive.  I had my catalog backed up onto DVD's.  The restore worked and I went to link missing photos, b/c I did the PSE 'no no' and moved files outside of the PSE program.  It appeared that the missing links were reconnected.  I started to spot-check some of the file property locations and noticed that many of the photo properties had the restore location that I restored the catalog to.  I did not want to keep the photo in this location, so I went to move these folders and files to my external drive where I keep my pictures (I have two drives: one for video and one for photos).  When I try to move the files in PSE to my external drive it moves them to my external video drive instead.  The problem is that when I follow the pathway it moved them to, I do not have this link on my video drive.  The pathway, however, is identical to my photo pathway.  For example.  I have a picture with the property of C:/Documents and Settings/Amy/My Documents/Restore Adobe PSE 100111/My Picture Downloads/Pella Trip.  I tried to move this file to my external K drive (which is my photo drive).  In PSE I click on file then move then browse and moved the file to K:Micah's camera photos/2011/May/2011/05 07.  In PSE when I go to verify that the file was moved to that drive, instead in properties it tells me that the file location is M (my video external drive) and lists the pathway as M:Micah's camera photos/2011/May/2011/05 07.  When I go to START and click on that external drive to follow the pathway to find the photo, it is not on M.  M does not even have the pathway to follow as I do not even have M:Micah's camera in that location.  I have tried disconnecting my external drive M and tried to save the file from the C location to my K drive and then the file becomes an offline file and I have another problem.  So then I tried to reconnect that particular file listed on M but since it's not really on M, I follow the K pathway name and find the file where I requested it to be saved which was K:Micah's camera photos/2011/May/2011/05 07.  When I find the file and click on reconnect I get the message that the file already exists in the catalog.  Then in the dialog box it says M:Micha's camera photos/2011/May/2011/05 07 was not connected to K:Micah's camera photos/2011/May/2011/05 07.  When I click on ok to exit the dialog box my photo is then missing.  I then can't do anything with it.  The pathway in PSE won't move it b/c I can't link it.  It says the file is on my M drive, but it really isn't.  I don't know what to do next.  I would like to move my photo files/folders from C (my hard drive) to K (my external photo drive).  I do not know why PSE is moving them to M (my video drive) which doesn't take me to that file.  I have searched the forums but have found no problems similar to this.  I'm not sure what to do to fix this.  Sorry this got so long...Can anyone help me?

    Highlighting a batch of images and dragging from the PSE9 Media Browser to a folder in the left hand panel, located on external HDD works fine although I’m using Vista and Windows 7 and automatically invokes the elements Move procedure.
    Make sure the new folder has a blue icon to indicate it is being managed in Organizer. If not right click on the folder and choose Import to Organizer.

  • Problem in Moving Files Locally after FTP

    I am being stuck in the middle of my application development. What simple I need to do is to get all the files from location and put them all on FTP site. After doing FTP I need to put these files locally to other flder.
    I am done with FTP site files move to the client FTP site successfully but after that when I try to move files to local directory It idnt move and "renameTo" function returns me false.I also listing my code below.
    ToFTPFiles function FTP the files and MoveFiles function wil simply move the files to the local directory.
    Adding one more thing If there are 6 files it move some time two files and some time 3 but not all always.But If I simple call MoveFiles function without ToFTPfiles it moves all files successfully.
    public void ToFTPFiles(){
                        Logger.log(Level.INFO,"FTP CLass Called"+"\n");

  • Problems deleting/moving files

    Ok I'll try to explain this as clearly as I can...
    Recently I got messages saying my memory was full.
    So I decided to move a large amount of files to an external drive. I selected all the files I wanted to move and dragged them to my external drive.
    When I was doing that, instead of landing in my drive, they ended up on my desktop. Which resulted into a freeze.
    I rebooted my macbook to resolve that problem. Instead I got messages saying my memory is full. Which is what I was trying to resolve in the first place.
    Now I can't remove files because my macbook keeps freezing on start up (cus it's trying to load my files on my desktop, for which it has not enough memory).
    So I can't access finder to clear my memory because my memory is full.
    I'm stuck in an endless loop of trying to clear memory...
    Any ideas on how to resolve this?
    I tried rebooting endlessly...
    I even tried to do a recovery, but alas... Not enough memory available for that...

    I have to disagree as Ive always been able to use it to do these functions, just not with the latest version. Do you mean to tell me that you should not be able to 'undo' delete as this is not in its function?!!

  • Problem in moving files from LR4 to Photoshop CS5

    I have recently upgraded from LR3 to LR4. I have not changed my workflow between LR and PS. However, when I try and open a file I'm working on in LR4 in PS using "Command + E", a dialogue box appears stating "The version of LR may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 7 for full compatability. Please use the Camera Raw Plug-in using the update tool available in the Photoshop menu".
    However, when I check for updates using the PS update tool, I am told all my software is up to date!?
    I have gone onto the Adobe site to check the current version of CR and do not see Version 7?
    if I move the file from LR to PS regardless of the above, the image rendered bears no similarity to the adjustments already made in LR.
    I would appreciate any ideas.
    Thx, Denis

  • Trouble moving files in lightroom 2.5

    I can't seem to resolve a problem with moving files in Lightroom 2.5. While in the program, can not drag and drop images from one folder to another. If drag and drop from IE (Windows Vista), and then go back into Lightroom 2.5, catalog does not update or recognize the move was done. I have to resync the folders every time.
    Based on tutorial videos that I've watched, it should be capable of these very basic things. I'm still new to LR and learning but can't seem to get past this. Is this a bug or setup issue? Not sure what I'm missing but it's driving me nuts, would appreciate any help.
    Sincerely,
    Bob

    I can't seem to resolve a problem with moving files in Lightroom 2.5. While in the program, can not drag and drop images from one folder to another. If drag and drop from IE (Windows Vista), and then go back into Lightroom 2.5, catalog does not update or recognize the move was done. I have to resync the folders every time.
    When you want to move a photo to another folder in LR, you have to drag the thumbnail, not the rectangle around the thumbnail.
    Lightroom does not find the new location of photos moved in Windows. Simply not a feature of the program. Therefore, you are best off to do the move in LR.

    I don't know what tutorials you are watching, but as I said, locating files that have been moved in Windows is not a feature/capability of Lightroom. You have to point Lightroom to the new location of the photo, or better yet, move the photo in LR. Or, even better, don't move photos from one folder to another, instead browse your photos in Lightroom, using keywords, metadata and collections (instead of folders) as your method of organization.

  • New External Drive connected to Time Capsule moving files problem

    I have a late 2009 13" unibody MacBook Pro, that I primarily use for video editing/converting. I use my Time Capsule as a network through which I can connect to my external hard drives via USB for videos and such. I've used at least two other external hard drives along with my Time Capsule for a year and a half with very few problems, aside from the inevitable crash of one. Before yesterday, I had a 1TB Western Digital MyBook (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=210) and a 2TB Verbatim Desktop HD (http://www.verbatim.com/prod/hard-drives/desktop/usb-2.0/) connected through my 1TB Time Capsule and aside from the Verbatim drive being rather sluggish most of the time, everything was working fine.
    Yesterday, I got a new external drive, an iOmega MiniMax 2TB (http://go.iomega.com/en-us/products/external-hard-drive-desktop/ultramax-minimax /minimax800/?partner=4760). I spent yesterday and most of today moving files around and whatnot through a wired connection (iOmega via firewire 800, Verbatim via USB, MyBook via USB, and Time Capsule via Ethernet), and everything moved quickly and without any problems.
    I hooked my Time Capsule up to my modem, plugged in the iOmega and Verbatim drives via USB to the TC, and started my laptop. When I opened the drives, everything was working fine... And then I tried to move a file to the iOmega drive... I was moving an episode of The Killing. I dragged it into the folder and went to Safari to look something up and suddenly realized ten minutes later that I still hadn't heard the noise telling me that the file had finished. I looked at the move dialogue box and it said "156.8 MB of 323.8 MB - About 10 Seconds". I watched it for another ten minutes and it didn't move. So I clicked cancel move and the rainbow wheel of death came up and I had to force reboot my computer.
    When I restarted, I opened up finder to access the drives through my Time Capsule, and it "failed to connect" to my Time Capsule. So I went back into my office to flip the switch on the surge protector in order to restart the process. I turned on my computer and I had no problem accessing my hard drives... Until I tried to move an episode of United States of Tara into the iOmega hard drive. This time, it said, "192.5 MB of 202.6 MB - About 5 Seconds" and completely stopped moving again. And the same thing happened when I clicked the little grey "x" to cancel the move.
    I repeated the process several more times with no luck. Then I thought it might help to see if it does the same thing with documents. So I dragged just a random document to the iOmega and it took about 30 seconds, but it did it successfully. So I tried to move the episode of The Killing again and I let it go for, like, 25-30 minutes. After this time, I got a notification from finder saying, "Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "[the file]" can't be read or written. (Error Code -36)". Then when I went back into the "Shared" part of the sidebar to go back into my Time Capsule folder, it said "Connection Failed"
    So what exactly does this mean? Are the Time Capsule and iOmega not compatible? Can I only move the files through a wired connection [which would be unfortunate]? Do I need to rejigger the USB configuration? Is the error code just for these two episodes and it's just a random coincidence that it happened the day after I got a new drive?
    Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

    I have attached the macbook to the tc via ethernet cable. Should I turn off my wireless connection or will itunes recognize to go with the faster connection on it's own?
    You MBP will try to connect based on the order of the list of network devices on the System Preferences > Network window. If Ethernet is not at the top of the list, then go ahead and temporarily disable AirPort.
    After all this is done will the wireless connection be fast enough for normal itunes operation?
    For audio streaming it should be, but just be aware that your iTunes host will have to get the audio source wirelessly from the TC, which in turn will have to get the data from the USB hard drive. Finally, the iTunes host will have to wirelessly stream the iTunes audio via AirTunes to the AirPort Express.

  • Problems moving files around in finder

    Does anyone else have the same problem I do when moving files around in finder. It almost always says you do not have sufficient access privileges and each time I have to go to the destination folder info box and change access permissions. It is now getting really annoying. At work I can not copy files off my laptop to the network as again it says I do not have permission though if I log on from a machine using tiger I can move the files easily. Moving files to my Lacie drive causes the same problem. If anyone out there has and easy fix or explanation I would be grateful

    I decided to go the long way and move everything where I wanted it to be.  I moved everything around in Bridge, I then synchronized the folder to reflect how it should.  So far so good!
    Thank you all for your help and interest, I really appreciate everything!
    I do have one more question now, I will also start a new thread to see what else I can get, but again thank you!
    I have syncroniced the folder after making the changes, and due to the problem I was having last time I did it again just to double check.  It said there were over2k photos missing so I clicked sync, let it do its thing.  And just to tripple check I ran it again and it is saying the same thing, missing over 2k photos.  What does this mean?

  • Problem moving files

    I'm pretty experienced using this product so yes I do know how to move files. Now I'm not sure if this is an OS (Windows 7 Home Premium) issue or a LR3.5 problem  (Or the one thing you never rule out, maybe I did something dumb). In any case I decided today was the day to move a some images around and cleanup those rejects. But for some reason I cannot move files I get a "Error while moving files" dialog box with the message "File could not be moved to selected destination"   If I try to delete a file it tells me it cannot move selected file(s) to the recycle bin.

    Because it was all of the photos I began to suspect the OS. And yes Hall you are correct.
    I recently moved from an Win XP Pro computer to one of these newfangled multithreaded 64-bit Win7 machines. I hadn't noticed the permissioning issue until this weekend because LR had no problem with imports or 'developing' photos. It wasn't until I tried to cleanup the trash I left behind on a bunch of projects when I ran into this issue. I thought by making my log-in the administrator everything would be find but no, I had to change pemissions under the security tab for that drive.

  • Suddenly I have problems moving files to the trash...  get a dialog saying Finder wants to make changes and I must provide the password... Any explanation or ideas how I can get this to stop?

    Suddenly I have problems moving files to the trash...  get a dialog saying Finder wants to make changes and I must provide the password... Any explanation or ideas how I can get this to stop?

    Please take these steps if you're prompted for a password when moving items in your home folder to the Trash.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/.Trash
    2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Show Info
    from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
    3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
    4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
    5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
    6. Close the Info window and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

  • Problem: Programs (such as TextEdit) focus to a moved file

    I've found serious problems with a new "feature" of Lion (or at least of TextEdit, I haven't tried to replicate the problem with other programs).
    The feature is that if you have a file open in TextEdit, then rename the file in Terminal, Finder, or other program, then TextEdit will switch to the moved file. That is, if you have a file called "hello.txt" open in TextEdit, and move the file to "hello2.txt", the TextEdit will switch to "hello2.txt".
    Now, this creates plenty of problems when using other programs.
    For instance, if I modify the file with another text editor called Emacs, Emacs will create a backup file. Guess what TextEdit will do? It will switch to the backup file.
    If there's a conflict in Dropbox, Dropbox will create a "deleted"-file of the conflict. TextEdit will switch to the "deleted"-file.
    I'm sure many other programs create similar issues, as I found these problems within a day of using Lion's TextEdit.

    Humm well you probably don't want to disconnect your WiFi every time you run this application  but i was going to say try putting it in airplane mode

  • ITunes keeps moving files to wrong directory

    This has happened twice now. I go to play an album and get the ! and that iTunes cannot find the files. I dig around in my MAcBook's hard drive and find a folder labeled Music Drive with about 200 randomly selected albums. I move them back to my external drive and erase the folder on my MacBook hard drive and the next day they are back again. Anybody run into this one?

    I figured this out. Not sure if it's the same problem or solution for others, but definitely wanted to share what I found.
    Initially I had moved the songs from my hard drive back to my computer. I have 30 Gig, so that was a pain. The problem still occurred. Then I figured it out.
    I had a niece that had plugged her iPod into my computer. As a result, she had saved music onto my computer. I later found out that it was music that her friends had downloaded from the internet, etc. (Justin Bieber, etc.). Anyway, I started watched the Hard Drive where iTunes was moving files and started to watch exactly what tracks it was moving. I started to remove those from iTunes. After I felt assured I had moved those files which were being moved, I then reimported the remainder into iTunes fresh. There was something about those files that was causing problems. After I removed those offending songs, it worked just fine. I can move it back to the hard drive, etc. and it all works just fine with those songs deleted. I was able to figure it out by 1) figuring out that my niece had done this back about the time that the problem occurred 2)watching which songs were getting moved initially and starting the problem.
    I hope this helps. It seems pretty isolated and may be specific to me.
