Problem: short filenames from Windows apps

Whenever I save a file from a Windows application on Solaris, if the filename is 8 characters or less, it converts the filename entirely to lowercase, but with 9 characters or more, it works fine. ie:
1234567890
abcdEFGHI.txt --> abcdEFGHI.txt
abcdEFGH.txt --> abcdefgh.txt
Any ideas?

Hi,
via samba, pcnetlink, nfs or what?

Windows 8.1 Problem with games from windows store.

I've got a problem with games from windows store. The installation is going well without any problems, however when I try to open it it's loading and then it turns off. The same problem happens when I try to use Games for Windows. I've use a sfc scan and
it shows some errors but unfortunately it cannot fix them. Should I share the CBS log or find the solution somewhere else? I hope you help, best regards.

Hi,
According to my experience, the problem like store game app open failed probably caused by hardware driver. such as Audio and Graphic driver. So, first of all, please try to reinstall these two driver to fix this problem for test.
In addition, for SFC scan failed problem, it can be caused by many reasons, I would suggest you use another command to fix your system for test.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Also you can test SFC command in Windows 8.1 safe mode.
Thirdly, if problem persists, please check Event Viewer, generally speaking, it would record the app open failed events.

Problems with switch from Windows to Mac

I recently switched from Windows PC to a new Mac and cannot install the Acrobat 7.0 Professional CD that I used with Windows on the Mac. Am I missing something, or do I need to buy a whole new product?

No Windows program will install on Macintosh (a very few products have
both Windows and Macintosh on one disk, but not here).
If you call Adobe you can buy a "crossgrade" for a reduced price. You
will need to upgrade to Acrobat 9.0 at the same time.

Office 2004 for Mac:: Problems Importing Data from Windows

I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this but:
I am switching from Windows and Outlook 2003 and trying to move my data from Outlook into Entourage. I was somewhat successful using O2M to import my Contacts and E-Mail.j However O2M created a bunch of .ics files that I can’t seem to get into Entourage’s calendar.
I also have a lot of Outlook Notes and Tasks that I can’t seem to import or drag into Entourage’s Notes and Task windows.
Any suggestions? I didn’t think it would be so hard. You would think that Microsoft as the vendor of both programs would have provided a smoother method of moving data between their programs.
Thanks
Ben

Thanks for the response. I will check the site that you reference.
Just out of curiousity--why is this not a good place to ask this question? As a new user to the Apple/Mac community am I relegated to asking questions only about Apple hardware and software written only by Apple? One of the enticements for switching over to Apple from Windows, besides getting tired of having to be a technical wizard, were all the platitudes about how easy it is to switch. Well it isn't all that easy.
Don't get me wrong, I am loving my new MacBook Pro and I imagine once I get my Outlook data over to the Mac I will be really happy. But given that all my email, notes, tasks, calendar and contacts for years have been on my Windows machine I would have liked a little less hair pulling trying to get it over to my mac. It has not been clean and it hasn't been easy [over a week now].
Somehow I thought "Well I'm probably not the first person to be taking this route and where would I find the largest number of people who may have already gone before me and could offer directions/suggestions." I did do my research and based on the number of postings concluded that Office2004 for Mac was the best choice if I was using Outlook on Windows and needed to continue to use Word/Excel/Powerpoint with the rest of the business world. And it did appear from all the postings that a lot of people use this package.
Again, this is not meant to come off harsh, but it is a little off-putting to be told "This isn't the appropriate place for this question"
Thanks

Problems importing mail from other apps

I cannot get an Intel Mac until I have successfully transferred all my email to OSX from other apps that only run in Classic. I managed the Outlook Express mail perfectly by importing it into Entourage. Unfortunately I cannot get the same result for the (older) Netscape mail.
This is the situation : Netscape Communicator is on an external HD with the emails (in System Folder:Preferences:Netscape Users). I use Classic to see all the messages and folders, but cannot import them into either Entourage or Thunderbird. What happens is ...
Entourage : fails at final step - "necessary file Netscape Communicator cannot be found"
Thunderbird : fails to insert the Netscape Users profiles folder and offers no dialogue to navigate to it
This one little detail (several hundred mail messages extending back to 1999) is preventing me from abandoning my G5 that runs Classic. Once I upgrade to Intel this will be lost forever unless I can get it into OS X somehow. Any ideas?

Sadly, no
Eudora (I tried 5.2) will only import from Claris emailer or Outlook - it offered to "Search disk" for other apps, but didn't let me define WHICH disk so I could point it at my external HD where the System Folder and Netscape currently live.
The good news is, I finally managed to get it into Entourage! Previously I had tried to import 'everything' from Netscape, but when I narrowed the list down to just Messages (which is all I really wanted anyway) suddenly it worked. So now I have everything in Entourage, and except for the occasional lamented game, I have no need to run Classic ever again.

Samsung SSD causing problem with upgrade from Windows 8.0 to 8.1

I'm having trouble upgrading my HP Desktop from the OEM installed Windows 8.0 to 8.1. I first attempted the upgrade when 8.1 was first rolled out. It seemed to upgrade okay, but after a reboot I was left with a black screen... no error messages, just a black screen.
I retried it this morning, but this time it failed with DPC_Watchdog_Exception and then Machine_Check_Exception. After searching through several forums, I'm "guessing" it may be Disk 0, which is a Samsung 830 Series SSD (Model: MZ7PC256/0H1, s/n: S0U3NSAC705912, p/n: MZ7PC256HAFU-000H1) that was installed and configured by HP when I ordered this desktop in 2012.
Samsung's Magician software doesn't recognize this SDD as a supported product, but they do identify it as a Samsung MZ7PC256HAFU-000H1, with Firmware version CXM05H1Q. I thought I'd see if a firmware upgrade was available, but there's no information about this SSD on Samsung's support site. Also, HP doesn't offer any firmware for this SSD... not even the original firmware. Everything I've seen on the internet says it's a custom OEM SSD that's not supported by Samsung.
I'm not desparate to upgrade to Win8.1, but I would like to know exactly why the upgrade keeps failing. I have another SSD available (a Samsung 850 Pro, model: MZ-7KE256BW) that I've considered using to replace the current Drive 0, but I hate swapping out parts without knowing it's actually the problem.
I'm open to advice. The info on my current system follows. Also, I should point out that there are no device conflicts nor outdate drivers.

Hi,
You will find the latest firmware for the Samsung 830 at the Samsung SSD download site. Additionally, you will also find the latest version of the Samsung Magician.
Backup your data and be sure to create the external HP recovery media.
I prefer not to clone but rather to use the external HP recovery media to load the SSD.
If you are not on the latest SSD firmware then flash the SSD. Use the latest version of the Magician to do so.
Disable Secure Boot in the BIOS before cloning the hard drive.
Then reformat and clone the SSD using the latest Samsung migration software. Use the original HP hard drive as the source and it needs to be intact as you need to bring across all of the partitions.
Power off the PC and disconnect the original boot HD.
Connect the SSD to the original boot SATA port.
Do not have any other SSDs or hard drives connected that contain an EFI partitions or you might run into issues with multiple Windows boot loders.

Sync problems after switch from Windows to Mac; cannot read/write error msg

I'm not sure if this is a hardware or software issue.
I recently switched from a PC to a Mac. To move my iTunes files (50GB) I simply dragged and dropped them from my external HD to my new computer. I know that Apple does not recommend this process, but when I needed to move my library between drivers earlier this year, it was the only way I could do it without getting an error message that killed the process.
Moving the files seemed to be a success. Everything appeared in iTunes, I was able to play the music, etc.
I then tried synching my iPod (Classic 160 GB – I think 5th gen, it’s about 3 years old) on the new computer. I got some message that said you can only have one iPod per account and that I would have to wipe the iPod before syncing. I let it do that.
Here's where problems began:
With a few gigs to go in the sync I got a message that says something to the effect that iTunes cannot read or write to the iPod. Even though must of the library had been transferred to the iPod, before disconnecting the iPod iTunes wiped all but a few hundred megs worth of music from it. I've tried restoring the iPod a few times but that has had no effect. The first time I tried to sync the iPod it was formatted for Windows. I have reformatted it for Mac.
Also noteworthy is that the first 3/4ths of my library copies very quickly -- 1GB a minute -- but then it eventually slows down to where 100 MB takes 10 minutes. It copies the files in a different order every time, so it doesn't look like it's getting hung up on the same files every time.
In case I had a corrupted file, I deleted all the files added to the library since my last successful sync.
Suggestions?
Should I just go to the nearest Apple store and beg for mercy?

Hi!
same problem here.I can use around 30G of my iPod Classic 160G.If i try to upload more than that it will take very long time and finally freezes.
Have no idea what to do..

Problem launching Firefox from Windows with file path that contains space characters in the html file's file name

We have a software application that programmatically launches the default web browser using the Windows shell execute function ("ShellExecuteA" in the "shell32.dll" library of the Windows API) along with a file path for a saved local html file that is to be displayed. In the case that FireFox is the default browser and the file path for the html file contains any space characters in the html file's file name, Firefox (in this case v7.01) will display an error message "File not Found..." and then will also proceed to open tabs for each of the individual words in the file name, launching as the URL path, each individual word appended to ".com".
In the following example, the path "C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\Kansas Secretary of State - Filings and Forms.htm" when launched programmatically, resulted in the error message "File not Found...Firefox can't find the file at /C:/KSSecOfState/Forms/Kansas." and opened up browser windows for "http://www.secretary.com/", "http://www.of.com/", "http://www.state.com/", "http://www.and.com/", and attempted to launch "http://forms.htm". If the same file (renamed) is launched using the path string "C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\KansasSecretaryOfState-FilingsAndForms.htm" the file opens up correctly in Firefox. Clearly the presence of spaces in the file name is causing the problem.
I should also note that either path (with or without space characters) works properly if pasted directly into the Firefox URL path menu bar for a live instance of Firefox. The test path strings I used were:
C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\KansasSecretaryOfState-FilingsAndForms.htm
C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\Kansas Secretary of State - Filings and Forms.htm
Does anyone know anything about this problem or how to work around it (other than the obvious answer of taking the spaces out of the file name which is not possible for this application). It seems the problem is specific to Firefox. IE works properly if launched programmatically with spaces in the file name passed to it. I haven't tested other browsers yet.
Thanks!

If starting from ShellExecute works the same as starting from the command line then there are two options: 
Put everything inside double quotes 
'''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\>'''firefox.exe '''"c:\test\svg test.htm"''' 
Convert to a valid url with file:// protocol and percentage-escaping the space 
'''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\>'''firefox.exe '''file://c:\test\svg%20test.htm'''

Possible problem calling java from Windows DLL

I'm am developing on Windows NT 4.0 using JDK 1.3.1.
What I want to do is to create a DLL that calls into java using the Invocation APIs.
I am able to successfully create a JVM inside my DLL and find the java classes that i need. The problem is if one of those java classes happens to perform a JNDI function (e.g. InitialDirContext), my DLL doesn't ever return from a call to that class's method.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for your reply.
All my JNI functions return ok with out error/exception. The problem is, the one function never returns so that I can check for errors/exceptions.
I found a work around for the problem. For some reason if I wrap the JNI code in a C++ class, the call hangs. But if I pull that code outside a C++ class, it works like it is supposed to. Not sure why this would be the problem.
Thanks again for your reply

Problem invoking JVM from Windows

Hi all,
I tried to create a JVM instance as laid out in the examples. The JVM is never getting created. I am using Visual C++ (I need to, when the code works I will be creating a DLL that is an addon to someother piece of software).
I have posted the code below::
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "invoke2.h"
#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#undef THIS_FILE
static char THIS_FILE[] = __FILE__;
#endif
// The one and only application object

using namespace std;
int main(void)
 int nRetCode = 0;
 // initialize MFC and print and error on failure
 if (!AfxWinInit(::GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL, ::GetCommandLine(), 0))
 // TODO: change error code to suit your needs
 cerr << _T("Fatal Error: MFC initialization failed") << endl;
 nRetCode = 1;
 else
 JNIEnv *env; /* The java vm environment */
 JavaVM *jvm; /* The actual jvm */
 CString fname; /* The file name of the generated intermediate obj file */
 JDK1_1InitArgs vm_args;
 jint res;
 jint vmavail;
 jclass cls;
 jmethodID mid;
 //char classpath[4096];
 bool viewerready; /* is this java viewer valid? */
 vm_args.classpath=".";
 vm_args.version = JNI_VERSION_1_4;

 res = JNI_CreateJavaVM(&jvm,(void **) &env,&vm_args);
 if(res < 0)

 jvm=NULL;
 env=NULL;
 viewerready=false;
 else
 cls = env->FindClass("OBJViewer");
 if(cls == 0)
 AfxMessageBox("Can't find the java OBJViewer class. ",100,100);
 viewerready=false;
 mid = env->GetMethodID(cls, "OBJViewer", "");
 if(mid == 0)
 AfxMessageBox(" java class OBJViewer has no constructor OBJViewer() ");
 viewerready=false;
 env->CallStaticVoidMethod(cls, mid);
 return nRetCode;
}

Hey guys :)
I incorporated the changes suggested by David and "reberst" and then did the stuff told by "LathaDhamo".
Now I am able to invoke the VM without problems and my test program runs and displays windows and takes in input etc.. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
But now, I noticed that all this happens only when I am in debug mode in VC++ and step thru the program. When my external program loads the DLL I created automatically, I get the error message that the "JavaTest" class was not found. This will lead to errors when I deploy the DLL or package it for others. How do I ensure that the class is always found? What do I have to do?
I am sorry for being so amtuerish and asking so many questions. This is my first time using JNI from the native side.
Thank you,
vijai.

Problems opening files from Windows server

Since upgrading to Leopard, some files saved on an Windows server no longer open in the correct application. For example, documents created in Quark 6.1 or 6.5 show up as Unix Executable Files and attempt to open in the terminal. Copying the file to my desktop does not help. The files work correctly for pre-Leopard Macs. New files saved from Quark 6.5 on a machine running Leopard onto the server work fine for other Leopard Macs, but pre-Leopard Macs try to open the files with Script Editor. I can change the "Open With" preferences in a get info window for individual files, but if I select "Change All", i get an error that "not enough information is available".
Also, Photoshop EPS files created with pre CS 1 versions of Photoshop appear as Illustrator EPS files.

I'm not sure if anyone is working on it.
I did copy everything to the Mac running 10.3.9 (above I mistakenly said the computer I was going to copy to was running 10.4).
I then updated the Mac to 10.5 and all the files continued to open with the proper program even after I put them back on the server.
I know that it's a hassle, but it worked. I guess if you don't have another Mac still running 10.3, you could put everything on your server, reformat you Mac to OS 10.3.9, then copy the server to your Mac, then upgrade to 10.5. That is, if you have a large enough hard drive. I don't claim to be a Mac expert so I can't guarantee anything in this paragraph. It just seems like that would be the only logical step given what worked for me with upgrading the computer running 10.3.9. Even after doing that, I'd then do a clean install on the computer. My Mac was having problems so that's what I did and plan on doing to the other Mac when I get the chance.
I guess it all depends how many files you have and how annoyed you are at having to Control click all your files to open them.

Problem while "migrating" from Windows to Mac OS X

Over the last few months my Macbook was damaged and in repair. At that time I used a Windows PC instead and it was no problem to keep on using my old iTunes library file after I added the file extension ".itl".
Now my Macbook is back and I wanted to open my iTunes library using Mac OS X, not expecting any bigger problem.
To my astonishment iTunes keeps on crashing, showing the following error message: "The program iTunes could not be opened. An unknown error occured (13001)" (translated liberately, as my system is set to German).
On both operating systems iTunes is running in the newest version. What could help solving my problem is the information that my iTunes Media folder including my iTunes library files are stored on an external harddrive formatted in HFS+.
Windows had writing access on this file system using the software "Macdrive" in version 9.
I already tried moving the library files to my desktop and opening them from there, also I tried to create a new library just for testing purposes on the same harddrive. Both tests failed with the same error message.
Windows is still able to open the library as it was before.
I searched for similar problems on the internet but couldn't find any help, so I hope that someone on here has any helping tips!

Finally figured out the problem on my own. My external hard drive was named <Mobile 2.5">. In this thread I read about others having a problem when their hdd was named in a comparable way (e.g. <storage for 21" iMac>).
I renamed my drive to <Mobile 2.5> and the problems are gone!
