PSD files sent over FTP given 1kb file size, archived, and have .bin appended to extension

I'm trying to deliver PSD files to someone over our server's FTP. If the FTP shared folder is accessed via a browser (like safari which is the main thing I've been testing on), the files in are listed as being only 1kb in size when each is approximately 60MB and all have had .bin appended to the .psd file extension. When the file is downloaded it's still 1kb and when opened it is associated with the archive utility which attempts to unarchive it and produces and identically named and extensioned file of 4kb size which cannot be opened by preview or text edit or photoshop.
Changing the extension does not help as suggested here http://forums.appleinsider.com/archive/index.php/t-25119.html . Also if the file is downloaded via 3rd party FTP software like cyber duck, though the file size is listed as 1kb, the correct size file is downloaded though still has the .bin extension. When this full sized .bin file is opened, archive utility instead of unarchiving attempts to archive it and produces a file roughly half the size which too cannot be opened. Speaking with apple care resulted in the suggestion that I use terminal command line to force the client to use binary mode when downloading the file which also downloads a file of correct size but with the .bin extension and that can not be opened.
Is this a known issue with PSD files? I've not come accross this before, the server is configured correctly and different file types are successfully downloading with no changes to size or extension and then opening as they should upon receipt at the client side.

Hi and thanks,
that was my next port of call but I stumbled across a more permanent fix. Mac OSX server automatically converts files sent over FTP to something called MacBinary on the fly and it seems this process doesn't agree with PSD files. Someone else encountered this problem back in 2003 and found this solution
http://forums.appleinsider.com/archive/index.php/t-25119.html
speaking to apple care they also sent a link for the official mac instructions for achieving the same thing here
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20996
and here
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20645?viewlocale=en_US
in the second explanation it's important to note for anyone attempting to follow this that if you're fixing the problem on MacOsX server rather than just MacOSX it isn't necessary to enable the root account as it is automatically enabled by default. Simply log out and log back in as root and use the same password as the first administrator account you set up when the server was first configured.

I have been given a 28 page Pdf and have been asked to optimize the item to reduce the file size. Can this be done in Photoshop Elements? if so how?

I am using a Mac and just bought Photoshop Elements 13. I have been given a 28 page Pdf and have been asked to optimize the item to reduce the file size. Can this be done in Photoshop Elements? if so how?

No the pages will open as separate documents in Expert Mode. You really need Acrobat or possibly you could copy and paste the contents into MS word. Then re-save as PDF.

File Data over FTP

Hello everyone,
I have a project in which I need to generate stats about a directory that is only accessible over FTP. The FTP folder could sometimes have 6,000 files in it (maybe more). I've tried several different FTP libraries, but none of which have really had what I need.
I do not need to manipulate the files at all, I just need to grab data on them... such as the filename and date modified.
I'm really stumped on this, could anyone give me some direction as to what approach I should take on this project? Am I crazy for trying this is Java?
Thanks in advance,
-mc88

I've decided FTP is probably the wrong approach for this, so I'm putting a script on the server to run ls, output the list to a text file. and then download it to java.
But if anyone has any better ideas. Let me know! :-)

Save a copy of file sent through FTP Send Port

How can we save a copy of the file sent through an FTP Send Port?
Here are the details of the scenario:
1. I have an Orchestration which after processing, creates a Flat File
2. Orchestration has a Static One Way Send Port with specify later
3. FTP Send Port is bind to the orchestration
Problem is, I don't want to create an extra file send port in the orchestration.
Requirement is:
When orchestration send the flat file to FTP, I want a copy of the file in a local file location.
BizTalk Specialist

Create a Send Port Group with the two ports in question and bind your orchestration to the Group.
Alternatively you can leverage the BizTalk Archiving Pipeline component from codeplex at
http://biztalkarchiving.codeplex.com/ and use this pipeline on your existing send port.

Please help it is urgent.

Hi,
I can't really read the error appearing in the screenshot you shared. Is the application fully up to date?
Have you read: After Effects CC 2014 - removal of H.264, MPEG-2, WMV, FLV, F4V, and SWF exporters - WHY !?
This might also be an explanation, as i believe you are trying to use h.264 right?

I have been trying to get a feature/functionality in my Apple system -- have asked about it in Apple stores all over the country from coast to coast, and have received no response. How can I speak with someone at Apple that will help?

Greetings whomever reads this.
I have 2 issues that Apple has not been able to resolve, that are vexing me.
1) Somehow I have 2-3 apple IDs ... passwords etc. I have purchased 2 iPads, 2 -3 iPhones, a Macbook Pro, and a Mac Mini with Thunderbolt monitor. Somewhere in that process I might have created another Apple ID, not sure. When the confusion started, I went to an Apple store, and they suggested I create a new Apple ID, against my better judgement I did, which added to the confusion. Now, every time I need to sign in using my Apple ID for anything, I have no idea what user ID goes with what password. I have gone to Apple stores several time to try to get this situation cleared up and each time they try to get me to create yet another Apple ID. Now I won't do that anymore, but the original confusion remains. How can I wipe out all Apple IDs and just have one?
2) I have been trying to get a particular functionality/feature/capability added to my Mac system. Don't want to go into detail here because someone will steal my idea and make millions. I have posed this question to Mac personnel from Geniuses, to Business Teams -- no one can figure it out. How do I get this fabulous capability I have thought up to come to life so I can make millions?

Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

SpeedGrade CC (2014) corrupting .psd files sent as clips from Prem Pro CC(2014)

I have embedded a Photoshop CC file (.psd) in a Prem Pro CC sequence. Each time I link the sequence to SpeedGrade, making sure I don't interfere with the .psd clip, the clip is returned to Prem Pro corrupted and have to restruscture and reinstall each time.
Is there something that I can do to prevent this or is this a bug?
Thanks in advance.

Hidden files sent through Apple Mail

Whenever I send attachments through Apple Mail, I get these 1KB files showing up in the attachment. For example, if I attached and sent a 1MB file called "photo1.jpg" through Apple Mail, my friends receive two files; 1 MB file called photo1.jpg and another one 1KB file by the same name. If I sent two attached files, I get two more 1KB files by the same name. Depending on how large the main file is the other file may vary from 1KB - 8KB.
I do not know how to avoid sending something I do not see.
Are these .ds_store files? When I sent this to myself on Gmail through Apple Mail I get the same. So, it is not as if ONLY windows guys see them. I can also see them in my Safari.
Please help.

This is likely the results of the AppleDouble MIME encoding mechanisms used within your Apple Mail client; the second hunk is the resource fork from the image file.
You can ignore it, or you can switch to a sending client that doesn't generate the AppleDouble MIME message (and the resource fork), or you can switch to a receiving client that does.
Reading fodder (though potentially more detail than you probably want) is available:
http://home.earthlink.net/~bobbau/email/more-tips/
http://db.tidbits.com/article/05787
There are other discussions of the AppleDouble format around.
The Windows Friendly switch disables this mechanism; the resource fork is not sent within the MIME-encoded message.

Failed Archive and Install - Have I lost all my user files?

In another thread I have reported printing problems while running OS 10.4.11 on a Cube http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1401894&tstart=0. Tonight I decided to do an Archive and Install to try to fix the problems. I got a message saying that the installation had failed and that I should try to reinstall. When I did so I was given the option to Archive and Install but the check box for Save Users and Network Settings could not be checked. Rather than trying to reinstall I quit the installer and specified an OS 9 system folder for booting. After booting into OS 9 I examined the Users folder and found no folders corresponding to my two user accounts, only a shared folder. The OS X Applications folder appears to contain all my applications.
It seems that the failed installation erased my user accounts. Is that correct? If so, how can I recover them?
Of course I did a backup of my user files before installing, right? NO!!!! My last backup was eight days ago.
John Link

Yes, an Archive and Install will not erase the disk or your files. If you use the option to preserve user accounts and preferences those will be transferred into the newly created system. However, your existing system is a failed installation so if you do another Archive and Install it cannot transfer your user account because it is not in the existing system. Plus you will need sufficient free space on the hard drive for yet another system - about 6-8 GBs.
Once you backup your personal data and your Home folder, I would suggest you just erase the hard drive, reinstall OS X from scratch, then copy your Home folder backup to the newly installed system. These articles, How to get files from a previous home directory after Archive and Install and Mac OS X- How to recover a home folder (directory), explain the process. Although written for an Archive and Install scenario it is essentially the same procedure you would have to follow.
How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.

Issue with project having Tag File containing definition of other Tag File

Hi Everyone,
I have a small problem which you experts are able to help with.
As the subject of this Post has suggested, I have a project which was originally built in NetBean 6.0 and I'm trying to migrate it across to JDeveloper 10.1.3. So far, I've managed to compiled all jsps and java source files successfully but I'm now stuck with the following error messages during building of the project in JDeveloper:
--- START OF ERROR ---
Error(6): Unable to instantiate tag: menu:tab (class: oracle.jsp._tag._tabmenu._tab_tag) Make sure that the tag class is available and that the tag library containing the class is not excluded from this application.
Error(6): Unable to find class for bean: null defined by tag with class: oracle.jsp._tag._tabmenu._tab_tag
--- END OF ERROR ---
I believe the reason was that I have this Tag file (menu.tag) that contains definitions and references to another Tag file and here is its content:
--- START OF TAG FILE ---

Why does the data disappear from my form fields when my form is sent over to client ?

Hi all,
I don't know if this is just happening a few times or ALL the time unfortunately:( I normally send over estimates (as regular pdfs) with some filled out Acrobat forms that make up part of the estimate (these include terms of agreement, project details, etc.). Now, before I send out the pdfs I password protect the entire pdf so that nothing can be changed, but that the pdf can be printed at high quality.
Well, what is happening when my client opens up the pdf (usually on a Windows machine) is that NOTHING APPEARS in all of the form fields where I had input and saved the data! Yet when I open up the form on my Mac in Acrobat, or Reader or Preview, all looks just fine. Any idea why this is happening and what I could do to prevent it from happening in the future? I am using Acrobat X.
Thank you kindly,
Christine

Hi Gilad,
I never use Preview and did not use Preview at all before sending the document over to my most recent client either.
I only opened Preview up this morning after I discovered that all of the form data had disappeared on his end! And the only reason I opened up Preview was because I already knew it looked fine in Acrobat so wanted so wanted to view the form in a different application.
My client would not even have notified me about it had he not sent the signed form back to me and I saw there was no data there! I then called him and asked him about the missing data and he said that he thought I had simply sent over the form purposely with blank fields:(
I have just emailed him to ask him what application he opened it up in. My understanding is that he is on Windows because ne mentioned to me his company was using Windows when we last spoke. Perhaps he has a personal Macbook where he opened it? I just don't know and can hopefully soon find out:)
But THANK YOU for letting me know about that script! I appreciate it:) I have now downloaded and installed it and will just have to use it on ALL of my forms before sending them out:)
