Problem with 4.0 folders

I'm not entirely sure this is the correct forum. I'll move it if someone tells me where I should be.
My wife had created 6 folders on her 16GB iPhone 3GS using the new 4.0 software and whenever she synced they all disappeared. Am I doing something wrong or are folders not supported by iTunes 9.1?

Actually any forum is not going to be correct forum here as we are all iPhone users and not developers. You could post on the developers forum for the 4.0 beta as that is the only place that you are to discuss issues, features or anything about the 4.0 beta as you did agree to a non-disclosure agreement (assuming you are a developer). You could also check the 4.0 Beta release notes, and look under the known issues segment of the note.
https://developer.apple.com/iphone/prerelease/library/releasenotes/General/RN-iP honeSDK-4_0/index.html
In order to see that you would have to be a developer, but it would also give the link on where to notify Apple of bugs that are not in the release note. Somewhere in the developer area is a notice saying not to upgrade unless the device is for testing only.
Assuming you and or your wife are not developers then I wouldn't suggest using the 4.0 beta. The firmware is exactly that a beta, and meant to be used by developers for testing and not to be used on an actual working phone as there could be many (and serious) issues with the firmware. Since you can't downgrade the firmware easily you are stuck with the 4.0 beta. On a side note, Apple does not support the 4.0 beta in any way shape or form, regardless if you are a developer or not. Hopefully your iPhones don't die, because by upgrading you will receive no support from Apple until the 4.0 OS is released this summer. Even then I'm sure they would then be able to argue that you voided your warranty by upgrading to the 4.0 OS before the general release.

Syncing problem with network home folders

Deaar Community,
I recently obtained a Mac Mini Server. I had a problem syncing my iPhone after moving all my data to network home folders.
Everytime I got the following message:
"Syncing cannot be enabled on this computer"
"Multiple computers are logged in to this same network home folder."
"Please turn off syncing on all other computers..."
There were no other computers syncing into the same directory.
This turned out to be a wrong error message.
I solved the problem by turing off the firewall on the server.
That was strange. Although the firewall rules were set to allow all traffic within the local zone iTunes had a problem with its presence.

Please be also sure that the permissions for the files are set correctly. In my case it turned out that the permissions for the iTunes Library were set in a way that the directories were owned by the server administrator's account. I had to reset the owner.
I also feel that there is a bug in the permissions administration in snow leopard server. I ended up with files that had a lot of permissions entries which were completely identical.
i. e.
Angela read only
Steve read+write
Steve read+write
Steve read+write
everyone none
Stll, a different error occurs randomly, but I finally managed to completely sync the iPhone. The error message now says that the iPhone could not be synced because the sync server could not sync the iphone. (?! This is somewhat redundant.)

Linkage and performance problems with "Additional source folders"

Hello
There seems to be a some problems when using "additional source folders" in Flash Builder 4.5 and 4.5.1 (links to folders outside a project see pic below). Hopefully I'm doing something wrong and some kind soul could point it out.
I have a library project which is referenced from a Flex application. When I try to use the tools to go to any of the declarations in the library project from the flex application project, I get a "Code Navigation Error" insetad of seeing the source code in the library project:
Typeing with code completion turned on is super-duper slow, characters take around half a second to appear.
What would really help is to know if there's a way to tell Flash Builder how to locate the source files for library swc's, and if there was a way to improve the performance of the text editor.

Thanks for replying.
I didn't specifically embed the source. How would one do that? I tried the "-debug" additional compiler option (from here http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf69084-7ad5.html) but I get an error saying "Option -debug cannot be used when compiling in Flash Builder":
I also did add the common swc into the libraries path using "Add project" in the Flex Application project:
The linked source folders are in the library project, however I still get the same problem wven when not using linkled source folders so I don't think that is the cause:

Problem with IMAP Public Folders in Mail

I use Mail v. 3.6 on a Mac (OSX.5.8) and recently started a new job and given a university email account. I was able to set up an IMAP account in Mail to access these emails. The problem is that the University Exchange server has dozens of "Public Folders". I do not even have access to these email, but Mail is constantly checking for new emails and downloading hundreds of them.
I can't figure out any way of unsubscribing from these Public Folders. I have asked the Tech. people in my department but they say that this is a known glitch with OSX and Mail.
Can anyone help?

While you have posted in the section for Snow Leopard and Mail 4.x, you report you are using Mail 3.6 and 10.5.8. I am not currently booted into Leopard to check for this, but in Mail Help for Mail 4.x, searching on Subscribe indicates the option is present. In your Mail, click on Help and search with "subscribe" to see what is said. I think this was a problem in Mail 3.x, but cannot verify at present.

Problems with e-mail folders

Hi, I hope someone can point me in the right direction here.
We use windows 7 and Outlook 2010 at home.
My other half has a Nokia 635 and I have an -iphone (supplied by work. )
We both have the same e-mail address at home of the form << [email protected]>>, not MS, Yahoo or Google but from our broadband supplier's IMAP email server.
I can access all the 2010 outlook subfolders easily using 3G or WiFi from the i-phone to the suppliers server but not with the Nokia.
Is it possible to actually do this with the Nokia? The only folders to appear even under all folders are inbox, deleted and sent items.
All we want to do is access the folders "Her_read", "His_read" and "sent items" all of which are visible in Outlook 2010 on the PC.
I believe that these folders must exist on the IMAP server, or I could not access them with the i-phone.
Why is it so difficult with the Nokia?
Other people have listed similar issues and the usual response is to use Outlook.com for e-mail on the phone, which is not the answer for me. We do not really want to send everything over Outlook.com or similar. It is already a pain that contacts can only be synced this way.
I thought the idea of the IMAP server was to allow access from anywhere on any capable device. Is this an issue with the way the phone accesses the supplier's server, or the design of the phone software?
Or maybe the Nokia will only allow access through one of MS's services?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Andrewdwork ,
From the description, the account is currently set up to use POP3 not IMAP?
Remove the account, then add using the 'Advanced configuration' to have some manual control during the process.
Please let us know how it will go?

Problem with user having folders created in Outlook

Hello,
I have a user who has folders being created in their account without their interaction. There are no filter rules in place and junk mail is turned off. One of the folders was named Junk and
set up as a subfolder in the inbox and that was where internal email was being sent. Other folders s a problem on our Exchange server but don't know where to look. Any advice?
Best,
Eric

Hi Eric,
Does the issue happen in OWA? Please check whether their is any Inbox rule setting there. And the folder may be created by other users who have related permission to this mailbox or folder. Please check it.
Thanks,

Problem with deactivating / deinstalling filevault

I have had filevault on my main user account. Due to problems with disappearing sidebar folders described elsewhere, I created a new admin account and moved all of my data to this account. I have not essentially emptied the old account, logged out to recover space and I now want to deactivate Filevault in the old account. But the process halts with an error message and in the console system log this string is found:
athrxproc: NO RX Packets for 5 contiguous interrupts first DS Vaddr 0x4f36c000 Paddr 0x8da5000
Any hints on what to do?

thrxproc: NO RX Packets for 5 contiguous interrupts first DS Vaddr ...
Turning off Appletalk fixed those entries in my system log (it was enabled unknowingly on airport and the built-in ethernet) and sped up the log in well...
I'm not sure on the constant dropping, but I've been experiencing that, and will report back if turning apple talk off improved that situation too.
thought I'd share as google brought me to this thread too..

Problem with public folder initialization on exchange load generator 2010

hi,
we need to make some stress charge for a migration between 2010 and 2013. Before that we need to populate our exchange 2010 lab with full mailbox and public folders. So we tried Exchange load generator 2010 for this task ( initialization only).
Loadgen did well for the mailbox but we have some problems with the public folders. we have an empty public folder database and the user we run loadgen with has organization admin and public folder management right. the problem is that when we run this command
(for initializing public folder only, mailbox's done) :
loadgencmd.exe /p /c config.xml /add trace.log
IT create only one public folder with the user we run loadgen with, and 5-8 objects inside. We need that It create a public folder for each users it created before. Maybe we do not understand loadgen
correctly...

I found my solution :
customize the <PublicStoreProfile> section in the configuration file as follows:
<PublicStoreProfile>
    <MessageFiles />
    <TopLevelFolderCount>1</TopLevelFolderCount>
    <NonTopLevelFolderCount>1</NonTopLevelFolderCount>
    <MinimumFolderDepth>1</MinimumFolderDepth>
    <AverageFolderDepth>2</AverageFolderDepth>
    <MaximumFolderDepth>3</MaximumFolderDepth>
    <MinimumMessageCount>5</MinimumMessageCount>
    <AverageMessageCount>10</AverageMessageCount>
    <MaximumMessageCount>15</MaximumMessageCount>
    <UseOrdinalFolderName>false</UseOrdinalFolderName>
</PublicStoreProfile>
Simply put differents values for each variables.

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. Starting on a new computer now. I can get my music from old computer?

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?

WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.

Problem with Image Capture Download Folders

Hi there - I was wondering if anyone might be able to help with a problem I'm having with Image Capture (version 3.0.3 (333))?
I use image capture to download photos from my digital camera and normally have no problems.
When I tried to do some downloads this morning, my normal list of folders in the "Download to" drop-down box is completely blank. It didn't even have the "Other" option to chose a folder. The Automatic Task drop down was also blank, I could not open preferences and in the "options" box, the ColourSync profile would not load anything.
I could not download the photos to anywhere - when I tried to "download some" it gave me an error message saying that I need to choose a download folder, but of course I am unable to do this.
This morning I tried repairing permissions in disk utilities, and removing the com.apple.imagecaptureapplist file and rebooting as suggested here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10368631&#10368631
but that hasn't worked completely. I can now download the photos but they just automatically go to the "Pictures". At least I can download them now, but if I can get the two drop down boxes working again, and the other things working (preferences etc), that would be great.
One other thing, about a month ago I foolishly tried to rename my Home Folder without doing it the proper way. I had thought I had gotten everything back to normal with my library etc, but maybe there are a few unknown implications still out there, and this is one of them as I don't think I have tried to download any photos since then.
Your help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Antony

Hi and thanks again
OK:
1. I found the photo and have put it back as the login page icon as close as I could to what it used to look like..
2. I trashed the user's .com.apple.systempreference file but it didn't work.
3. I then copied my .com.apple.systempreference file to their library>preferences folder but no luck.
4. Finally, I noticed the other user account had no system preferences file in their "Applications" folder. So I copied the system preferences file from my application folder across and used that to open system preferences, and that has seemed to fix it, ie. system preferences now opens directly from the apple menu.
So I am noticing a few things now:
5. The other user's "Applications" folder doesn't have many applications in it. It only has:
- Utilities
- Adobe Version Cue CS2
- Real Player
- iTunes (which was only downloaded there recently - post Home Folder name change I think)
- Imagecapture which I copied there yesterday
- and now System preferences
6. This is compared to my user account applications folder which has loads of other files in it, eg. Preview, Stuffit Expander, iDVD, iChat, Calculator, Chess, Skype, etc etc etc. I just can't remember if this was the case before the Home Folder rename.
7. Now, my user account used to be the only admin account, so it makes sense that my "Applications Folder" has more in it because programs could only have been downloaded there for a long time. The other person's user account has only been an admin account much more recently - say in the last year and very few applications (if any) would have been downloaded there.
8. Interestingly, while the other user account doesn't have the Skype or Preview file in their "Applications" folder, it does appear in their bar along the bottom of the screen that has the dashboard and finder icons (is this called the dock?).
9. Anyway, if you are in the other user's account and you click on Skype, iCal, Word or Preview in their Dock for example, those programs open no problem so the dock icons must somehow have survived the Home Folder renaming and stayed linked to the corresponding files in my "Applications" folder? But some other programs, eg. system preferences, image capture etc didn't survive it and became "delinked".
10. I also notice internetconnect still works in the other user account, even though there is no internetconnect file in that user's "Applications" folder.
11. So it seems that some links between the other user and my account have been severed, and some have survived.
Some other information:
12. Everything that was on the other user's desktop appears to have been recovered since the Home Folder debacle (I think getting the Library back helped this?), and I managed to redo the desktop picture/wallpaper.
13. I'm not sure if it is relevant, but in my account, Finder has a side bar on the left that is divided into an upper section and a lower section. The lower section has my home folder, a documents folder, a desktop folder, a pictures folder etc. On the upper section it has the macintosh disk icon, and also a Network Icon (that contains a library file and another file which I can't remember just now but can let you know if that helps). The other user account does not have the Network icon however. Do you think this might make a difference?
14. In addition to the other user account there is also a guest account on this computer which has suffered the same problems, eg. not being able to open imagecapture or systempreferences. However, when I fixed the problems in the other user account by copying over the imagecapture and system preferences files from my account to the other user account, the problems in the guest account were automatically fixed!
15. So it seems the guest login is somehow linked to the fixes in the other user account, but the other user account and the guest account are suffering some problems with links to my user account. Perhaps the latter was badly broken with the Home Folder rename incident?
16. Finally, if you go into Finder while in the other user's account, you can navigate to the applications folder in my account and access all the applications there, ie. Macintosh HD>Users>MyHomeFolderName>Applications. My applications folder is not blocked like some of the other ones, eg. Library, Desktop, Pictures etc.
17. Is there someway to re-establish the link between the other user account and my application's folder? I don't want to copy all the applications across even if I can do that, because it just takes up more space on the HD, but if that is all that can be done, then I will consider doing it...
Thanks again BDAqua!

Reduce folders in Windows 7 for pictures without causeing problems with PSE11

I want to simplify my Windows 7 folders and reduce the number of the folders. Can you please advise me on the best way to do this so as not to cause problems with PSE11 finding the pictures? Thank you.

The only way to move files or folders/subfolders without causing problems, that is not creating 'missing files' is to do this from within the Organizer, not the OS (Win/Mac).
You can create folders and move pictures from the Organizer.
Note that if you are moving the files of several subfolders into a single one, you run the risk of wanting to move files with the same filename into the same folder ; your OS won't allow that. So the Organizer will rename pictures if needed.
If you want to do such a big reorganizing task, absolutely do a full backup before. There is no advantage for such a reorganizing from an Organizer point of view, but if you need it for some reason, it has to be done from within the organizer.

Problem with file type... some files have been changed to folders... Help !

Hello,
I have problem with some files that are located in Library / Quicktime.
I have 7 files in that folder and all are .component files.
3 of them used to look like a lego block :
DivX Encoder.component
macam.component
MayaIFF.component
But today, I have accidentally change them into folders (and I don,t Know how...) So instead of having thoses 3 files with the lego block icon , I have 3 folders and If I click on thoses folder, It open like a standard folder, so I see the "content" folder inside them...
How can I change it back to the .component file type they should be... I know how to change the type of a file, but since they are now folders, there's no "file Type" associated with them (right click / infos)...
Help !

There are lots of things that are in fact folders, but the Finder treats them as "files"--in the sense that normally when you select one you cannot see the contents of the folder. One way this is done is by the use of certain extensions, for instance .app, .pkg, .mpkg, .bundle and .component all tell the Finder to NOT display the folders as folders. If you do a GetInfo on them and the name is still "whatever.component" and the Kind: Component is still showing, and you haven't noticed any problem with QuickTime, then don't worry about it.
Those are all third party QT components. If they aren't working, you may have to reinstall them from the original source.

Problem with File Sharing-Permissions throughout Folders

I'm having an odd problem when setting up a Mac Pro with File Sharing. I have a second Hard Drive in it which is a Server Drive to be shared as a networked Hard Drive for both my MBP and my Fiancee's MBP. Here is the problem I have.
I set up File Sharing and set up both her ID and my ID. Since this is done she is able to get to drive from my MBP and she is able to get to the drive from her MBP. I am able to read or write to those folders. She is able to view them but is unable to write to them.
I went to the Server Drive icon on the Mac Pro's Desktop. When I right click and do "Get Info" and select Sharing I can tell her ID is not listed on any of the Folders. She is listed as Read and Write for the entire Hard Drive (which is an internal drive). I am also listed as Read and WRite and then it lists Everyone and says No Access. The same is listed in System Preferences in File Sharing. I have heard this Everyone 'No Access' can cause problems but I prefer not to give access to everyone. The only other option is Read Only and Read and Write. Also, when I have Everyone selected the - sign is greyed out so I'm unable to remove Everyone.
To continue, what is strange is I thought with it saying on the Server Drive itself for my Fiancee, read & write, that it would say this on every Folder inside. Yet when I select any Folder inside on the Server Drive and select Get Info it says for me "Read & Write" and for Staff "Read Only" and for Everyone "Read only" I'm not even sure where Staff comes fro and of course Everyone is Read Only and my Fiancee not even listed. It just seems that these file sharing permissions are not replicated througout all the Folders when I select it for the Hard Drive itself. What could be causing this and how can I get the same to go throughout the Folders? I know manually I could change them all but this would take a long time and likely still be a problem when any additional Folders are added.

1. I have turned logged into it from my MBP while at Home and if I'm logged in as Guest I only see the Server Drive which is good. My concern is that if I log in with my login I then sell all Folders including the Main 'Macintosh HD' At least as a guest I can only see the Server Drive but is it any way I can stop it from showing all the other folders on the computer since I have no reason to do that?
When you login to a mac as an administrator it is normal to see all the contents of the volumes connected to that mac.
2. Also, I would like to disable all access for Guest. Yet I have it list Everyone or Guest in the file sharing and I have no way of deleting this. I don't want a Guest to be able to connect to this computer or share any files at all on it. Is there any way to disable this?
Goto system preferernces-->accounts
click on the lock to and enter your password to unlock the preference pane.
Then select the guest account. Then uncheck the 2 check boxes. The account should now have 'disabled' underneath it.
3. Security: How secure is this? I am using it on a Home Wi-Fi network with an Airport Base Station 1GB. I have the Leopard filewall set to "Set Access for Specific Services" since it won't work with "Allow only essential services" I hope my home network is more security but with Back to my Mac how hard would it be for someone to be able to find this computer on the network? I don't do any filesharing on my MBP but do have it set up for File Sharing but only with my login ID.
If you have your base station set to distribute ip addresses then it is acting as a NAT router and will firewall you.
I have not setup back to my mac yet so can't comment on its security. Although I would suggest a strong password.
have a read of Mac OS X 10.5: About Back to My Mac security
My method of remote access is to use SSH and run screen sharing over an SSH tunnel.

Problem With Elements 10 Organizer Showing Wrong Files in Folders (In Folder View)

I just got started using Elements 10 on Windows XP and have had some problems with the Organizer. Once it was installed and had cataloged all my photos, I made sure to only move files and folders to different locations from within Organizer. However, now it seems to have lost track of which photos are in which folder. It will "remember" that there are 3 photos in a folder (in Folder View) and only show three photos in that folder, but they will be 3 random photos from a different location. Opening that item shows that thumbnail and referenced file are the same, so it isn't just a thumbnail problem. And looking in the actual folder with Windows Explorer shows that right photos. I'm not sure if I should run an Optimize or Repair on the catalog or if there is something else I can do to fix the problem. I don't need to use Folder View too often, but sometimes I do and I use it to reorganize the actual locations of files. Not sure what would happen if I did it now (with the obvious catalog confusion).
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
torreyindy

Image size. I have been scanning old 35mm images. Any image greater than about 8100 pixels causes thumbnails to fail - this sounds like being around 2 to the power of 23 but what a really odd combinatin that is.
8100 pixels? All of my photos are larger than that, and I don't have this problem. Do you mean 8100 pixels on a side? There is a known limitation in PSE that photos above a certain pixel size on a side cannot be displayed in the Organizer. I no longer remember what that size is, perhaps someone else can chime in. Scanning your images to be 8100 pixels on a side would be overkill for me; however maybe for you its an important thing to do.
I have about 10,000 photos in the catalog but need to load up about another 5,000 historic images, and we take about 1,500 images per annum.
This is not a problem for PSE.
I have played with databases, so if i can get into the organizer database (at least to do backups), ideally with Access, that would be brilliant. Any suggestions?
If you are going to play with the database through Acess, I think you will fail. I believe that PSE uses SQLite as its database, so you have to use SQLite to view the contents. If you are going to do this, work only on a copy of the database. As this is a long-standing bug in PSE (since at least PSE6), and no one that I know of has found a workaround, and people have reported that the rest of PSE behaves as if the photos are where they are expected to be, my guess is that the bug is in the way PSE displays the photo location in folders. And if that's the case, that the database is correct and its only the display that is incorrect, then there's really nothing you can do to fix that; monkeying around with the database itself won't help.
whereas I had complete confidence in Adobe products being a long time Photoshop fan, I am now taken aback, so any help would be much appreciated.
I agree with you, this is a shame that PSE has this problem and it has gone unfixed since PSE6. Your choices are:
use tags and captions and notes to organize in Thumbnail view, and not use Folder Location View
stop using Organizer, use your operating system to browse your folders, only use the PSE Editor
switch to Lightroom, which has a quality Organizer (called the "Library Module") that doesn't seem to have this particular bug, and in general seems very solid, behaves well and is relatively bug free. (Lightroom 3 currently on sale in the vicinity of $79 (USD) as the anticipation is that Lightroom 4 will be released soon)
switch to other organizing software, there are many, but I make no recommendations as I have tried only PSE and Lightroom

I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
Disk Utility can verify my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
Good luck!
