Random NAME folder, and loss od Drag&Drop ability

My company currently has several MacPros hooked up to an Xserve. There are a few random computers who, while clicking on a folder in the Xserve, see a folder inside called "NAME" along with the other documents or folders that are supposed to be in there. When clicking on that main folder they want, they cannot drag it to the desktop of their computer.
The only work-arounds are to Copy (Apple +C) the folder and Paste (Apple + V) the folder to the desktop, or to change the finder view from Columns View to List or Icon View.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
Thanks.

I have a similar problem, I have a xserve with an Active RAID attached sometimes when I connect to the sharepoint a folder appears at the top called NAME but you can't do anything with it?? i would then revisit the sharepoint at some tim and it would dissapear, this is really puzzling???????
ANY ANSWERS OUT THERE?????

  • No "Ringtones" tab and can't drag & drop ringtones into iTunes

    I have an iPhone4 running OS4.3, using iTunes 10.2 on a Windows Vista PC. I used an iPhone app to create custom ringtones, and have followed the app's instructions to save the ringtones to my PC and then copy into iTunes. Two problems:
    1) The instructions say to drag & drop the .m4r files into iTunes. I've seen this mentioned in other posts on this topic. When I try to do this, the files won't "drop". I see the "no" symbol (circle with line) when I hover over my music library.
    2) The instructions say to click on my iPhone in iTunes, and then on the "Ringtones" tab along the top of the screen. I don't have a Ringtones tab. There's also no reference to Ringtones in the left navigation pane.
    How do I correct this?
    Thanks

    !!! JUST DOWNGRADE YOUR ITUNES VERSION, AND USE THE OLDER ONE - THAT'S ALL. SORRY FOR ALL-CAPITAL LETTERS AND EXCLAMATION MARKS, - IT IS JUST OUT OF EXCITEMENT, AFTER HOURS OF SEARCHING AND THINKING ABOUT A SOLUTION !!!
    Shalom all,
    Our frustration and pain is over, for sure… With some help and hints from this forum I’ve found a precise solution to the above mentioned can’t-get-the-goddamned-ringtones-tab-to-appear-in-my-iTunes problem.
    Now let me try and get up to the point:
    The 10.5.2 version of iTune is worthless (at least, it’s 64-bit modification, which I’ve been using up to this point). By reading a few comments on your forum, I’ve quickly decided to try and downgrade to 10.4.1.10 version (seems to me, 64-bit), which can be downloaded from apple.com site with just a little extra-search.
    By the way, I do have Windows 7 64-bit OS on my PC, and “Apple” warns that one MUST use 64-bit installation in my case…
    One must uninstall previously installed 10.5.2 (if there used to be one, of course). In such a case, please, also uninstall a “Bonjour” program by “Apple” (don’t know what’s that, but you will not be able proceed any further with, as it was said in my case, higher version of “Bonjour” left behind).
    After uninstalling those two abovementioned things, I have installed iTunes 10.4.1.10 , even without being asked for reboot by the end of the installation. But, alas, when I tried running iTunes, it failed with the complain about a “iTunes Library.itl” file (found in C:\Users\<My_User>\Music\iTunes). I’ve just renamed the file (could’ve been removed as well, of course) and restarted the iTunes. This time everything went smooth.
    The rest of the story, I assume, you can imagine much better than me. Go to Edit->Preferences and tick “Ringtones”. After connecting the iPhone (well, probably one more iTunes restart will be required in this case, - not sure about that), we will get the “Ringtones” tab set also under the iPhone definition (see “DEVICES” in iTunes).
    Next, create an .m4a file out of your favorite ringtone, move it to the Desktop, change the extension to a4r, add it back (drug-and-drop) to “Ringtones” tab at the iTunes LIBRARY. Then make some blessing, take a deep breath and… that’s pretty much done. One important thing not to forget before sync: click on your phone (under iTune’s DEVICES), and click on “Ringtones”, located right under the gorgeous :-) apple picture in the top middle of the iTunes window. Mark “Sync Ringtones” and “All Ringtones” (?) there, of course…
    BTW, no need whatsoever to register your phone, - you can just postpone the registration...
    Phew… Let’s hope I haven’t forget anything. Anyhow, the idea was to get rid of iTunes 10.5.2 as soon as possible, uninstall it together with “Bonjour” (say good bye to “Bonjour”  ), then install a good old iTunes 10.4.1.10, get over few problems and… The rest of the procedure - you know it by heart, by far better than me…
    I’ve been struggling with the problem for less than a day (thanks to all of you, pals), but I can imagine there are still some poor pal chaps around…
    Let us help them… Very unfortunately, English is not my mother tongue, as you can see… I wish, it would be different, but G-d decided other way… Please, (1) make some corrections and clarifications to this notes (I could've made it better, but in a crunch now, really), and also, (2) try spreading it among as many guys as possible… If you can pass this solution to “Apple” tech support, - it should be taken to consideration...
    And I'll be waiting now for a generous job offer from that great company... :-)
    Let me just wish you all a very Happy New Year...
    Thank you all, dear friends, and do enjoy the best of your own FREE ringtones……
    P.S.: iTunes 10.4.1 (64-bit) can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1427 , at the bottom of the page...

  • PS11 Organizer. how 2 move 1 file(folder) into another? drag & drop doesnt work...

    as it does in Win. also how can i create a new file/folder to put other files/folders into. ex a new folder names "Flowers" then put all the other files that contain flowers such as folder "red roses" into the "main" file of Flowers. Cant figure it out even using the book The Missing Manual. Thanks sara

    It sounds like this question is for Photoshop. This is a Flash forum. In any case, is your question about real folders on your computer, or server, or are asking about the files and folders in the "Layers" panel? Or, is your question about using the Library panel in Flash?

  • Random thick lines and loss of sensativity

    Hello. I've been having a problem with random sensativity in lines.
    On my other computer, which is several years older then the one I'm working on now, working on PS with a tablet that was Bamboo, I would draw and quite often, every other stroke or so, instead of doing the stroke, it would make a straight random line of full pen thickness instead of using any sensativity. I knew I was getting a new computer and equipment soon so I took little worry of it. Now I'm on an entirely different computer, using a different new version of PS6, an Intuos Pen and Touch Medium, and have the exact same problem. It is not a memory problem, as this new computer has nearly nothing on it, everything is on an external drive. I used to run on windows vista, and this is windows 8. I've tried downloading other programs, such as Sai, and have not had the issue in it so far, but I wish to use PS6 for all my work. Is there a setting in the tablet interface I need to fix so it doesn't have so many problems with PS? Or could it be something else? I tried using Sai briefly to see if it was the problem with the program and so far I haven't had the same issue in Sai itself.

    Are you able to try the tablet on another computer?  My first thought on reading your post was Wacom hardware or driver.  Is this only happening when brush size is set to Pen Pressure in Shape dynamics?  And does it never happen with the mouse (I'm guessing not).
    You are allowed two installations of Photoshop with your license or subscription, so you can legitimately install Photoshop on a laptop.  Reading your post again, it appears you are using a different pen and tablet, on a different computer with different operating system with a different version of Photoshop.  With odds like that working for you, you should probably rush out and get a lottery ticket!  There has to be something in common.  Some correlation between the two set ups.  Have you transferred brushes from old to new system?
    I take it you are using new drivers for the Intuos?  Wacom have had more than their share of driver glitches
    How about electrical interference?  Is the tablet resting on a device that might be radiating RF interference?
    It's a strange and interesting problem.  I'd suggest heading over to the Wacom forums, but I'd like to see how this pans out. 
    Can you double check your driver version

  • HT1386 HELP!!! I cannot sync my iPhone to iTunes. The message says I don't have enough access privelages. And I cannot drag/drop any songs into my device. After updating, I have no music content on my phone. Please, can somebody tell me how to fix this?

    Can someone please help me? I cannot sync my phone with iTunes after updating the software, & my phone has no music. The message window keeps saying I don't have enough access privelages. It also won't recognize my new subscription to iCoud when I turn on iMatch in Settings. I have tried everything I can think of & am ready to throw this thing out of the window in frustration.

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

  • Adding skin to SkinnableContainer disables drag/drop ability.

    Hi all,
    I'm having a bit of a problem with a SkinnableContainer. The code defining the SkinnableContainer looks like:

    If I add styleName="DropboxSkin" to the skinnablecontainer (actionContainer1), then it appears that my dragEnterHandler refuses to accept the drag source. Is there any reason this might be occurring? Removing it returns the functionality back to how it was and the drag source is accepted.
    Thanks very much,

    With Pages you can add text   and then drag and drop  photos from iPhoto to wherever you want and resize just by clicking on the photo and dragging a corner:
    The text wrap is automatic so you just move the photo to get the wrap effect you want.
    You can save the document as a PDF file for printing.

  • .avi files and subtitle drag&drop

    Is there any video player that can play .avi files and also support drag&drop subtitles? I tried Perian with Quick time and now it plays .avi files perfectly. However still can't drag the subtitles to Quicktime screen. Also I tried Miro and VLC Player. They both lack of 'drag&drop subtitle' function.
    I'm new to mac, only 3 days. Maybe there is a trick to do that drag&drop thing. Any help?

    use Mplayer from appstore and its free..:)

  • I can't drag/drop files!! HELP :( :(

    I can't drag/drop files from one place to another, like across my desktop,i have to cut/copy paste them into another location.
    It randomly change as before i could drag/ drop files, etc

    OS X will move the file if you hold the command key while you drag and drop.
    What happens if duplicate files are found during the move drag and drop. If you release the command key to answer the dialog box that appears, the file will be copied but not moved. If you continue to hold the command key as you click the Replace button, the move action will be completed.
    To move files in Finder first press Command+C to copy the selected files, then press Command+Option+V to move the copied files to the current folder.

    There is no disk mode on the iPhone (not in any version under previous or current firmware) so you cannot drag files to your iPhone. At best all you could do would be able to put them on the flash drive as files and then copy them to another drive.
    Either use iTunes, jailbreak your iPhone (which will void your warranty) or sell the iPhone, do a little research, and buy a phone that meets your needs.

  • R6034 error Photoshop CS2 drag & drop

    I've had this problem for some time.  I'm on Vista-64-SP2 running Photoshop-CS2 When first installed PS-CS2 worked fine. I got no errors when starting the program and I could drag & drop icons from the desktop or windows onto the Adobe taskbar icon and the photo would load normally.
    Then I let Adobe automatically upgrade my CS2 and other Adobe products (Dreamweaver CS4, Illustrator CS2, GoLive6, Reader, Flash browser plug-in, etc.) and then I started getting a windows error message R6034 saying that "An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly."  Microsoft says the fix is to recompile the application.  Yeah right!
    OK, so I delete Photoshop and other applications and reinstall them all and the problem goes away ... until I let Adobe automatically update the products and the problem comes back.  Yes, I can probably live with an unupdated virgin version of Photoshop CS2 but there should be an answer from Adobe or at least someone else to validate that my complaint is not unique.
    Another problem that may be related is that I've seemed to have lost the ability for Adobe GoLive6 to open Photoshop images for editing
    Also I've lost the ability to drag & drop from the desktop or a window onto an open Photoshop application or onto its icon on the taskbar.
    I've searched the web and find nothing similar.  The solutions I have found were unrelated to my situation or were for a Macintosh.  I've searched the forums here and find nothing that gives an answer.
    I know pretty much what I'm doing around computers and I keep a clean system.  Informed replies are most appreciated.

    I don't think you will have much luck on that one. The problem here clearly is the way 32bit DLLs need to be piped on 64bit systems, which for some reason does not seem to work in your case, probably due to soem registry key being changed and then it messes up the wghole OLE/ DDE/ COM shebang. It may be further complicated by some dispaly routiner incompatibility. Since CS2 was never developed with Vista 64 in mind, you can't even exactly blame someone and this seems a common problem with an assortment of legacy apps, not just Adobe programs. What you could try is to download Sysinternals' Process Monitor, establish a filter rule specific to the updater and see, which registry keys it changes, which DLLs it replaces etc. this may then offer some clues as to which ones you need to salvage before the update and may possibly put back into place thereafter. May work, may not, but in any case you are doing it on your own responsibility....

  • Drag&Drop from Lightroom to Premiere doesn't work! Programming an alternative?

    Unfortunally the is no working Drag&Drop ability to drag a videofile from the Lightroom Library into the Premiere Project View.
    (This Problem appears only on a Windows machine not on Mac)
    This is becaus if you send a (valid) filepath to "Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" as a parameter it doesn't do anything! Why that?!?!?
    It makes no difference if you drop a file on "Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" or if you use the windows command shell like "C:/...<path to premiere>.../Adobe Premiere Pro.exe" "myfile.avi"  , simply nothing happens - at least with Premiere Pro CS5...
    So the Idea is to build an Lightroom Plug-In, that opens an exe-file with the filepaths of the currently selected Viedeos from the Lightroom Library as parameter.
    The exe-file should pass the information to an opened Project in Premiere an load the Videos into the Project.
    With ExtendScript Tool i can get this behaviour with this code:
    var myFiles = ["C:\\01.avi, ..."];
    app.project.importFiles(myFiles);
    I don't think that the Premiere SDK will help me out, because with that I can only build Plug-Ins that work INSIDE Premiere. I need a Executable that can send information/files to Premiere from Outside. The only thing I can think of is to load the right dll-file and call the function() for importing files to Premiere (I think this is what ExtendScript Tool does ), but I don't know how to start, because nothing is documented about the dlls...
    Any Ideas

    EDIT:
    Ok, I identified the dll which is importing Video-Files to Premiere:  HSL.dll
    At my pc it is located in:
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5\"
    The function that is called is named ImportFiles(...)
    That's the whole code, reverse engineered:
    HSL::ImportFiles

    Can anybody "read" that , or anybody know how to get this working with c++?

  • Windows Storage Server 2008 - unzip with drag & drop from Windows 7 client fails

    Hello.
    As i asked this question in German and got no answer so i try it in English now.
    I have the following problem:
    We have a Windows SBS 2008, where we store our files. If somebody opens a ZIP-file on a network share from a Windows 7 Client (64 Bit) it is possible to drag & drop the content (multiple files) to a directory. So far everything works as expected.
    We now have an additional Windows Storage Server 2008 integrated in our domain (Buffalo Tera Station WS-QV8/R5), where we also store files. If somebody opens the same ZIP-file on a network share of this server from a Windows 7 Client and tries to drag &
    drop the content the following happens:
    1. only one file is extracted and to display the file a refresh of the explorer view is needed.
    2. when the drag & drop action is repeated a second file is extracted
    Not alle files are extracted and there is no error message or indication why this happens.
    The behaviour is reproducible from another Windows 7 Client (32 Bit).
    If we try to drag & drop the files from the ZIP-file on the Windows Storage Server network sahre to a directory on the SBS network share all files are extracted correctly.
    On the Windows Storage Server itself all files are extracted without problmems. Therefore it must be a problem with the combination of Windows Storage Server und Windows 7 Client accessing the files via network shares.
    Are there any ideas where this problem could be located? Has anybody the same phenomenon and maybe a solution for it?
    Thanks in advance

  • Faking Drag&Drop operation to external application

    Hello,
    a rather complicated issue. in my program i have a JTable, and i can drag&drop from this jtable
    to external programs like windows explorer by clicking the mouse and moving it from the table
    to the external program.
    how can i reproduce this exact behaviour WITHOUT user intervention?
    in other words, how can i do this programmatically, creating a drop source at the start point,
    then move the mouse, and release it above a specified location on the screen?
    is this even possible in java (as we're running in a VM) ?

    it has it's problems.
    for example, if the drop point is above the source point, moving the mouse with the robot sometimes marks all entries in the table instead of performing a drag&drop operation. also, it seems that without a delay between the moves, strange things happen. so here is an updated version which workes 99% flawlessly for me.
    package trakker;
    import java.awt.Point;
    import java.awt.Robot;
    import java.awt.event.InputEvent;
    import java.util.logging.Level;
    * this thread fakes a drag & drop operation to the traktor decks

         // constructor
         public LoadDeckThread(Point pTrack, Point pSource, Point pMoveTo)

  • Why I can't see the button fuse, when I drag and drop a folder into same name folder

    Why I can't see the button fuse, when I drag and drop a folder into same name folder
    I saw the option only one time, and i reseach in the internet and I find fuse option, but now never saw again.
    And Yes, I drag folders with the same name.

    Ok, Gracias por su pronta respuesta, yo necesito arrastar una carpeta a otra ubicacion con una carpeta del mismo nombre, entiendo que lion te advierte si desea reemplazar el contenido o fusionar (mexclar el contenido)
    como lo dice aqui :

    3. Podrás combinar tus archivos y carpetas. Seguro que alguna vez has perdido algún archivo al combinar carpetas o archivos del mismo nombre pero distinto contenido. Ahora, cuando intentes mover una carpeta a un lugar con otra de idéntico nombre, tu equipo te preguntará si prefieres combinar ambas o cambiar una por otra. Los archivos serán tratados de una manera similar: Cuando coincidan archivos con el mismo nombre, el sistema te preguntará también si quieres mantener ambas copias.
    y en muchas otras paginas que tratan el tema.
    mi problema es que esa opcion no me aparece. solo la opcion de reemplazar (o no reemplazar o detener)
    Lo increible es que alguna vez el mismo dia de hoy si me aperecio la opcion.
