Problems transfering Files

Hello :)
im having a problem transfering a .mdb (access db) file to an ftp site.
im not sure if i am going in the correct direction but the meathod i used worked with sending html files.
the code im using goes as such...
//^^set ftp location, username, password etc
console = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(new File("C:/Program Files/BIZi/BIZi/" + file)));
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(urlConn.getOutputStream()));
String line = "";
while((line = console.readLine()) != null)
pw.println(line);
} The part it falls over is at PrintWriter pw = new ......... etc
I get no errors so im not sure where i may be going wrong.
any pointers would be much appreciated :)
thanks in advance..
Dave

One of the problems I see is that schools and
colleges do not seem to teachActually, you can stop right here and say it all.
With regards to programming, they don't teach
anything.:-) A slightly more cynical view than mine!

I have problems transferring files from PC to Mac and from Mac to Mac

I have problems transferring files from PC to Mac, and from Mac to Mac. PC to PC is fine. Nothing but problems with the Mac. One example:
While working on my PC, I open shared folders on an external HDD connected to the Mac. I click on paste to move the files. I get an error after a few seconds to a minute of trying to move several files from my PC Win 7 to Mac OS Maverick, that there is a file already at the destination on Mac. This statement is true, but it was just put there because I am copying them over in that same action. It reads 0Kb and wasn't there before I started. Then I get an error: The Action Cannot be completed because the folder is open in another program. Close the folder or file and try again..
Whether I click on it a bunch right of way or wait, it still takes about 45 seconds. I have to do it with every file and it only happens when copying from a PC to Mac. I have even restarted both computers so nothing is using any files. If I copy one file at a time, I don't get any error.
So I have one file to move, no problem. If move 5 files, The first will go fine, but it shows all 5 files in folder at once. All other files than the first show 0kb. I get the file already existing error once it starts the second file transfer, and I select move and replace. Then I get The Action Cannot be completed because the folder is open in another program. I wait or click repeatedly until it starts to move file. That file will then show something other than 0kb. When it is done, the error process starts all over. I tried checking the PC with unlocker, but the files do not show themselves locked on the PC.

Its not only French. Even certain characters in English will come across as gobblydegook from 1 platform to another. I see this in emails that likely were composed in Word & the characters don't come across.
Not sure if this is still true, but years ago someone explained that there is a standard character set & then I think its extended characters & those vary from platform to platform or language to language, etc.

Problem transferring files from PC to MP3 pla

I recently have had problems transferring music from my computer to my Zen Touch.
I am using firmware version .0.03 Zen Touch and version 2.02.05 of Creative MediaSource Organizer. I have been able to transfer files perfectly fine for years up until a few days ago. When attempting to transfer an album, I get the following two error messages:
"Error: unable to download file. This file format is invalid."
"Error: There is not enough disk space at the destination for this
transfer."
The first error baffles me. Every file is in mp3 format and plays fine on my computer. I have no explanation as to why I am getting this error except that my Zen Touch is dieing. :-(
I have figured out the reason for the second error but I have absolutely no clue why it happens. When transferring the mp3s, the album folder grows to a ridiculous size. A 90 MB folder got changed to 9.23 GB!!!! Half of the songs on the album became -2 GBs each while the other half remained normal and completely unchanged. The songs that were greatly increased in file size still played fine on my PC however there would be 000s of minutes of static following the song.
The music already on my mp3 player still plays fine. The only problems I have been having is with the transferring of new music to the player.
So, I'm hoping someone has experienced this issue and has been able to fix it.
Thanks.

Can anyone help me with this or should I just give up on my Zen Touch?

Problem transferring files from zen to

i recently backed up my computer files on my zen touch because i needed to format my computer, these files were backed up onto my friends system and then transfered onto my zen touch, i recently tried transferring my backed up files back onto my computer but it keeps saying "format cannot be read" or something on the lines of that, is there anything i can do to solve this problem?

Unfortunately I've seen this all too often with the players and will make the warning again to NEVER USE AN MP3 PLAYER AS A SINGLE SOURCE FOR FILES.
Despite this, sometimes upgrading or even downgrading the drivers can increase the stability. Notmad Explorer is more stable than other programs for data, and with Xstreamer, using the free trial, you can access data.

Problems Transferring Files Larger Than 1GB Using SMB

Hi All,
I noticed that in 10.8.2, when I try to copy large files particularly greater than 1GB from my PC to my Mac using SMB (the PC is the one making the operation of copy & paste) , it fails to continue with the error message "There is a problem accessing \\COMPUTERNAME\SHARENAME. Make sure you are connected to the network and try again. However, when my Mac is the one doing the copy and paste operation, it continues without any problem. Any ideas why they behave as such?

hi all,
i just want to share that i upgraded some of my PCs to Windows8, and to my surprise, this problem is all gone and the copying is much faster! my other PCs that were left behind Windows7 still experiences the same problem. now i am confused if this is Apple's bad implementation of smb or it's a conflict between OS X and Windows7. can someone duplicate this problem between pre-Windows7 versions so that we can have comparisons. thanks and cheers to everyone!
That's really interesting, because all of my machines are running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit and they all have this issue of not being able to copy large/sustained transfers... I don't have any machines running 7 to check if my issue is isolated to just 8 or not. Can you say what flavor of 8 you're running?
I eventually just went to using SMBup which... 1. gave me better speeds then when I was using the built-in OS X Windows Sharing, and 2. Has been 100% reliable as far as transfers go... I can copy 10GB files with ease. The only issue with SMBup is the fact that Windows machines don't show up in the Finder like when you're using the built-in method.

Problems transfering files from PC to Harddrive on Airport Extreme.. Help!

I upgraded to an Airport Extreme to help speed up my wireless and access a LACIE 1tb harddrive between two computers - a Windows XP 64bit machine and a new macbook.
Everything works great except I cannot copy large files from the PC to the harddrive even though I can stream movies off the harddrive to the same computer and transfer small files. When I try to copy a large file I get "The specified network name is no longer available" after about 30sec even though its actually connected (I can browse and watch a movie after I get the error). The large files do show up on the HDD after getting the error but they are not working files. So frustrating.
I have read that it could be the 7.4.2 firmware but have tried going back to 7.4.1 with the same results. I have also tried backing up the Airport and restoring to default settings. Also tried installing the airport software on the PC with no luck. I am considering trying to format the drive from FAT32 to the default apple one but really don't want to do this.
Anyone have any suggestions? This is got to be the most frustrating problem I have encountered since starting my mac transition...

So I plugged in another 250gb hdd that I have lying around, formatted with my macbook and successfully backed up over 130gb worth of files via time machine. Also, tried transferring some "large files" to the same drive via the PC with blazing speed and everything works great.
So it turns out that a harddrive with FAT32 doesnt work properly with a PC.
I will be formatting my other 1tb drive now and I suspect will have similar results but this issue is odd and frustrating to say the least.

Problems "transferring" files from time machine to new hard drive

I was experieincing the spinning beach ball of death so I replaced my hard drive with a new one. I am running mountain lion (10.8.2) and the new Hard drive has two partions - one for "start up" which I was able to use migration assisant to move over my applications from my time machine. The problem I am having is that I can't figure out how to get my user account data transferred to my the data partition (journal extended) on my new hard drive.
When I enter time machine I can't "see" my last back updates before I changed hard drives.
I put my old hard drive in a case and it "isn't working" so I can't just copy data from my old hard drive. It did work initially but now it doesn't mount and I can't see it in disk utility.
Any Ideas on how I can get my user data off my time machine back up?
I forgot to mention that when I go into my external hard drive containing my time machine via finder and click on the folder with my user data I'm not able to open the various files - they have a red "-" and it says, The folder “Desktop” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents. In disk utility I can't run repair disk permision on my time machine drive because it is grayed out.
Thanks - Dave

I see. Don't do that. I do not believe using Migration Assistant is a valid method of accomplishing what you intend.
Furthermore, unless you are using the "Enter Time Machine" feature, you really shouldn't pick and choose what you want to copy from a Time Machine backup... "no user serviceable parts inside". You can certainly find and individual files and folders in the Finder, but you will run into the permissions problems you describle. I would not attempt to circumvent those protections.
As I understand Time Machine, you must either restore a volume from a Time Machine backup, thereby erasing the volume first, or restore individual files and folders by using "Enter Time Machine" when the backup has already been properly designated for the source.
Since your replacement hard disk - the source, now - is technically new, the latter is not an option. It's as if you were trying to restore to a different computer. This can't be done.

Problem transferring files to Sony Ericsson T610

I cant manage to transfer files from my G4 iBook with OS 10.4.2 to my Sony Ericsson T610 phone.
Pairing works fine, and I can download email using the T610 - but each time I try and transfer a file using Bluetooth File Exchange, I get an alert saying The file transfer failed: the recipient has stopped or refused the transfer.
I have Bluetooth File Transfer switched on. I have Bluetooth enabled in the phone as well as the iBook, and Im using a D-Link USB dongle. Ive also tried with a Belkin Bluetooth adapter.
Ive tried setting up pairing from the phone instead of the iBook, but the problem remains.
Any ideas?

Problems transfering files from iMac to iMac via External HD

I recently bought a new iMac. I have been trying to transfer all my files from my old G5 Intel iMac onto my new one with my external HD.
My first problem was that when trying to copy the files onto my new Mac I was prompted with a message saying that I didnt have the privileges to do this! After a quick look around various forums I tried to edit the folders by going to 'Get Info' then changing all the tabs to read & write in the sharing and permissions section.
After a few hours, still no joy!
So I just tried to edit the 'Sharing & Permissions' of the files on my old Mac, and then copy them again to my HD to see if that would work, but now I am prompted with a message saying
'The finder cannot complete the operation because some data in ".DS_Store" could not be read or written.
(error code -36)
Can anyone help?
Or suggest an easier way?
All I am trying to do is make all my files 'read & write' so I can put them onto my new Mac.
Thank you.

Both your computers are Macs, so choose +Mac OS Extended (Journaled)+.
It does no harm to have the Mac OS 9 drivers on there, but if that drive will never be connected to a Mac with Mac OS 9, you can uncheck it.
If that drive was previously formatted for Windows, instead of using the Erase tab, you may want to go to the Partition tab. Reset the +Volume Scheme+ to *1 Partition*. Click on the Options button. Make sure the +Partition Map Scheme+ is NOT set to +Master Boot Record+. If one of your iMacs is a G5 (PowerPC) iMac, and you will not be using this external drive to boot your new Intel iMac, +Apple Partition Map+ would be the best choice. If you want may want to use this drive to boot your Intel iMac at some point, and your G5 iMac has Tiger (10.4) or later, you can use +GUID Partition Table+ instead.

Problem transferring files?

I downloaded a few songs this evening and transferred them over to my iTunes library, but as I was going through them I noticed that two of the thirty five weren't transferred over with the rest (I used the transfer folder function in iTunes to get them into the library). I tried transferring the files individually, but that hasn't worked with either of them. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi apfe
Check if the card is still working properly by trying it in another phone or in the pc using a memory reader.
If it is still working, try to connect the phone to another usb , then another pc?

Problem transferring file to non-sap system from R/3

Hi,
I used one Z function module to transfer file to non-SAP system as follows.
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_INTERFACE_OUT_1'
       EXPORTING
            INTID           = V_INTID
            EXTRACT_DATASET = P_V_FILENAME.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
    WRITE: / P_V_FILENAME, 'file has transferred successfully'.
ELSE.
    WRITE: / P_V_FILENAME, 'file transfer has failed.'.
ENDIF.
I am getting message 'file has transferred successfully'. But it is not found on destination system.Can anyone please tell me the reason.
Thanks,
Venkatesh.

Hi,
You can use transaction code SNOTE to see whether a particuler OSS note is implemented or not.
First navigate to GOTO> Download SAP Note and import the OSS note to your system.
Then navigate to GOTO > SAP Note Browser and check the status of the OSS note, it will show whether it is implemented in your system or not.
Also in the OSS note, there is release specific information. You can check whether that OSS note is applicable to your release or not.

Problem transfering files to new computer

I am still using version 1.4.1 and upgraded my old Mac g4 to a new iMac running osx 10.5. I had the store transfer my files and programs to the new machine. I can see all the thumbnails etc and find them by keyword and so on but on the image it says "file "xyz etc" is offline or missing." A search of the hard drive shows the files are there. Is there an easy way to fix this?
Thanks,
BB

> A search of the hard drive shows the files are there. Is there an easy way to fix this?
Well, you haven't provided enough details (such as in what folder were/are your files and catalog on the old/new computer, have you preserved your folder hierarchy etc.), so they might be on your hard drive, but not quite 'there'.
You can use the Locate Missing folder command on your top-level folder. This will link images in the catalog with the respective files on your drive.

Problem transfering files to Zen mi

Hi
I had trouble with my Zen Micro and ended up deleting the library and installing new firmware. I thought it would be straight forward to get it all back but NO! I now cannot transfer any MP3 files into the Creative destination...it gives me an error stating that it was 'unable to transfer file - restart and try again'
Any ideas? It is getting a bit frsutrating now!
Thanks
Julie

Cocoyofoo,
It's possible to answer a question and remain civil. It's a simpe mistake to make, so there's no need for a response like that.
However...
Ju-c,
The same would apply to you. Either ignore the post or reply in a civil manner, and please refrain from using bad language on these forums as we have people of all ages reading and posting.
Moved this topic to the MP3 player forum, where it should get more response.

New to MAC, External Hard Drive Problem Transfering files to MAC

Hello All.
First I'm new to the MAC world, just bought my powerbook pro yesterday. Love it. I tired looking for this topic and found similar post but no solutions that I understood.
10.4.9
I have a 260GB NTFS external hard drive with about 100 gigs of info on it. I used it with my PC, running XP Pro.
I want to be able to access that HD from my MAC but all I can do is read, I cannot write. I was hoping it would just hook up to my MAC and I'd be able to read and write.
I do not need to be able to use this HD with my PC anymore. I'm 100% MAC now. I was hoping someone could give me some advice on how to make that happen. Do I have to reformat my HD? What system is that FAT32, NTFS? Something else? And how do I go about doing it?
Thanks to all.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You are correct, Macs can only write to FAT32, or Mac formatted hard drives with the built-in software, unless the Mac is networked to the PC, as this article describes:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=19652
You can also add Macfuse to the Mac, to connect to an NTFS drive, and that's linked here:
http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/
To reformat the drive, you'll have to erase it with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility. Thus before you can reformat it, you'll have to copy over any essential information. The Partition section under Disk Uitlity lets you create a GUID Mac formatted partition under its Options button, and that is ideal for both Intel iMacs and MacBook Pros. If the label under the screen says Powerbook, let us know, and we'll direct you to that forum instead, if we can't answer your question here. Apple Partition Map on the other hand is the ideal for Powerbooks, and PowerPC based Macs. Formatting GUID or Apple Partition map, will let you boot from that drive, to verify that a clone backup was done properly depending on which Mac you made the clone for. Formatting FAT32 or NTFS won't let you make a full backup of your internal hard drive, and only will let you use it for backing up user documents. I highly recommend Shirt-pocket Superduper for backing up, as my FAQ* explains:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
P.S. The MacBook Pro is the Intel version of the Pro notebooks. You posted to the Intel iMac forum. The Intel iMac looks like: . So unless you have that Mac, you are in the wrong forum. There is no such Mac as the Powerbook Pro. You'll see the label in front says MacBook Pro below the screen if that's what you got. Here's the forum for it for category reference:
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=190
And pick a forum within it to post a new topic, if I can't answer your question here.
In addition, this nomenclature article will be helpful as well:

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800.
Over the past month, I have had problems when transfering files from my harddrive, over Firewire 800 to a portable drive. I usually transfer very large files (20gb or more) to the portable drives for moving files around. When I drag a file over to copy onto a drive, the transfer starts normally. If I drag more files to copy over, the computer screen goes darker and a large icon comes up that looks like a power button icon. It tells me to restart, so I have to do a hard shut down on my G5. Weird. I also get the dark screen of death sometimes when I am transfering those large files and open another application to do some work while it's copying. It's killing me. I am having to sit here and wait for the transfer to finish before I can do anything.
Any thoughts...

Have you run the Apple Hardware Test? Sounds like it could be a RAM problem.
