San Disk Flash card will says card is full when I try to import files

Hi I'm using a quadcore G5. I'm also using a roland spd-s drum sampleing pad that takes compact flash cards. I have a reader hooked up to my computer, and I'm trying to import wav files onto the card. I Imported a few but now it's saying the card is full, when the view options obviously state that there is 286.9 MB of free space. The File I'm tring to import is only 1000 KB. I tried to restart the computer and the same thing happens. Has anyone ever run into this? Any sugestions on what might be going on?
thank you for your time

I haven't seen this specific problem, but flash memory can be tempermental at times. I'd suggest moving everything off the flash card onto your hard drive. Then reformat the flash card with a MSDOS File System (FAT16) format using /Utilities/Disk Utility. After the drive is reformatted, try copying the files back to the flash disk.
If that doesn't work, there could be other issues at play. The file that you're trying to copy could be corrupt. The flash drive may be bad (either from the factory or it has reached the end of its read/rewrite lifespan). There could be something going on with the flash reader on the Roland box. You could borrow someone's USB flash card reader to test that.

Can't get burned CD to be read on my laptop itunes which I'm trying to transfer music to. It just says 'track 1' for the entire CD, and can't be copied. Says unknown error -50 when I try to import. Any ideas?

So...I'm trying to transfer my itunes music to my laptop. I set up a new itunes on my laptop and, with great difficulty (I'm not technical), I've managed to be successful with the help of my memory stick, which saves wasting CDs.
However, for some reason a few tracks by a couple of artists don't seem to have transferred. So I had the idea to burn a CD and then copy that directly to my laptop.
There doesn't seem to be any trouble burning the CD - that works fine. I just select audio CD, and done within a minute or so. But when I then put the CD in my disc drive, it doesn't work.
It says 'track 1', with no other tracks for the entire CD. When I try to import it, it says 'unknown error -50'. I've tried tinkering with the import settings, but it makes no difference.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I'm not that computer literate, so please make it idiot proof

You can use the bootstrap tar.gz files that are found in the same directory as the iso on every mirror. If you go to the download page, select the mirror of your choice, you will see a file called "archlinux-bootstrap-2013.10.01-x86_64.tar.gz" (one for i686 also). That is what you need.
Unpack it whereever you think is appropriate, if you have enough RAM you can use /tmp. Then after setting up the partitions in the host (Kali/Debian, or whatever), you can arch-chroot to that unpacked directory. There you will find all the tools necessary to install (pacman and the arch-install-scripts).
This method has one issue though, and that is that the arch-chroot script (and maybe others) requires some pretty new versions of various things. In particular, I think that a pretty new version of bash is required. So I am not sure about the viability of this solution on anything debian, as their stable repos tend to be pretty conservative. It also means that you need to have a pretty good understanding of the install process, as you will still mostly follow the beginners guide, but it will require a few changes in the procedure.
Good luck.

Says it is paused when I try to import.

When I try to import from my camera, iMovie says the camera is paused even though it is playing on screen and in my camera. Any thoughts?

Welcome to the discussions.
Which camera?
Which iMovie version?
Which iMac?
Which QuickTime version?

I have been importing images via card reader with no problem. Now all of a sudden I can see the images on the screen but when I try to import the computer says that it can not read them and quotes numbers of the images. Any idea how to solve?

Please give us the exact error message.
Please state your operating system.
Please state the exact version of Lightroom you are using.
Please give us any other relevant details.
What does this mean: "Now all of a sudden I can see the images on the screen"? Are you looking in Lightroom or your operating system or the camera screen? Where?

You can only remove a credit card if you are on the computer. If you are trying to remove it via a device like a iPod you will not be able to do it. However if you are on the computer you click on sign in in the upper right hand corner of iTunes, then view account then edit payment information. Once you get there click none.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The total value of your purchase including any taxes needs to be less than the credit available or your credit card will be charged.

When I try to import pictures from media card to iPhoto, I'm getting the error 'The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format.' The file is a jpeg and I've never had this problem before.

What version of iPhoto?
What colour profile is the shot?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Now when I try to launch AE or PremierePro I get this Last log message was: <140735120521568> <GPUManager> <2> Sniffer Result Code: 3. I have trashed the CUDA program and reinstalled Premiere and AE but no joy. Same message followed by another error box with options to Retry, Send to Apple or ignore. I have tried all 3 options but nothing works! Every time I launch either program same message appears.

I just purchased an Novella MiFi ~ I have an Ipad 2 wifi only. My ipad will recognize the device, but when I try to connect, is says I am not connected. Suggestion?

Getting connected to a mifi the first time was goofy for me as well. The message you are getting means you have not satisfied the security on the my yet.
On mine, when I set it up, I had to declare a password. But it never recognized that password for connecting devices. Turns out the password was only used for changing system settings. When connecting a device what it really wanted was the device code, similar to a router key- not your password. So look through the paperwork and find the key, and try that.
I think you mean novatel, who make a number of mifi units.

HT4101 Exclamation point in red when I try to import photos onto iPad from SD card

I get an exclamation point in a red circle when I try to import photos from my SD card using the CAmera Connector accessory. I have successfully used this method for over a year, but all of a sudden, I'm unable to import. I have installed iOS 6. Please help!

Hi mpt95,
I have the same problem with met 3rd gen iPad.
I tested with 2 camera's and 2 different sd-card. Here are the results:
Canon Ixus: SDHD class 4: Connection oke, Import just fine
Canon Ixus: SDHD class 10: Connection oke, Import just fine
Nikon D3500: : SDHD class 4: Connection oke, no import! Get the red Exclamation point
Nikon D3500: : SDHD class 10: Connection oke, no import! Get the red Exclamation point
Problem is not related to the SDcards, but the combination with the Nokon D3200.
Read on the net that pictures should be in the DCIM folder, and should bet no longer then 8 Characters.
I checkeg this, and it was correct. The red exclamation mark is a mystery and I cannot find the solution on the net. So far.
What camera are you using?

Since you have already isolated it down to your home network, if following Steve's instructions do not fix your issue, contact your Internet Service Provider or Router Manufacturer and make sure your network is set up according to this information: iOS and OS X: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

When i try to import my pictures from my camera i get an error saying unreadable files. What do i do to import them?

First launch Image Capture, located in the Applications folder, and see if you can upload the phiotos to a folder on the Desktop. If you can then import the folder into iPhoto.
Then reformat the memory card using the camera's format option, take a few test photos and try importing into iPhoto again.

Well, think about it. This is a Lightroom forum. We are here to answer questions about Lightroom and how to solve problems in Lightroom. Your permissions issue is an operating system issue, not a Lightroom issue. I didn't mean to be sarcastic. But there are plenty of Internet resources that will answer that question.
I just went to Google and typed in "change disk permissions", and there are links for the Mac as well as for Windows listed. There's no sense in me rewriting instructions that are already available.
