Search using Windows explorer

Searching works using the default browser search page, but
does not work when I user the Windows explorer interface?

Have you cheeked the permissions? On my machine Windows explorer
uses the system account. Its possible that the web interface is
using different account with more rights.
Right click on the o: and choose user profile. This will show
you which account explorer is using.
Then login with the same account in the browser and see if there
are still differences.

Photo problems and can i drag and drop files using windows explorer?

i can only sync photos frm my com to my touch but i cant choose which photos i want and i tried searching for the files in itunes and i cant find them, thus cant delete them...
on top of that, i can access the files in my touch but cant find any option to delete them...
when i go the photos tab in itunes, it only shows me the window to sync files and the 2nd question too...
because when i drag and drop on itunes, it's quite laggy...and if i use windows explorer to drag and drop, will the duplicates on my playlist appear as 2 files or will it be like itunes where it can detect the main file and simply adds it to the list?
thank you...
sorry for the wall of text...

There's no manual mode for photos just different ways to sync but here's a simple "How To" on managing your photos so that it's easy to add and delete what you want on the iPod:
1 Create a folder on your hard drive to hold the photos you want on your iPod. Call it iPod Photos for example
2 Drag the photos you want from your usual picture folder into the folder you just created
2 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
3 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
4 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
5 When you want to change what photos are on the iPod just add or remove the photos from the folder you have made and syncronise the the iPod
You can't drag photos or music to the iPod from Windows Explorer, you have to add content through iTunes or you'll not be able to view or play it.

How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door. Am I missing something? Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk? Please help. Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi penguin247,
Regarding your questions:
1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.
Link to picture
2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).

I just downloaded Autocad to my downloads file, how do I take it from there to my Parallels Desktop without using "Windows Explorer"?

I just downloaded Autocad to my downloads file, how do I take it from there to my Parallels Desktop without using "Windows Explorer"?

Did you download it from Adobe or a pop up? If it was a pop up do not open it. Make sure you only get it directly from Adobe here:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
There is some malware that poses as Flash, in pop ups.
Then do as macbig explained double click on the file,
After you open and install the .dmg reboot your computer to complete the installation

Problems in using Windows Explorer with VPC Virtual PC?

Has anybody experienced problems in using Windows Explorer with VPC Virtual PC?
Lacking any "forbidden" or "appropriate usage" guidelines, I regularly use Windows Explorer (Windows 2000) to transfer file from the desktop. I have occasionally sensed that this might be wrong. Today I inadvertently clicked the MAC harddrive instead of the Desktop (within Windows Explorer) and caused all manner of mischief.
Any other views please?

Let me correct this:
I regularly use Windows Explorer (Windows 2000) to transfer files from the "Mac" desktop
Any ideas please Virtual PC VPC users?

No Default ACL when using Windows Explorer?

No matter what Default ACL I specify on any user's account,
adding new documents using Windows Explorer causes an initial
ACL of "Published". Also, when I right-click on the iFS network
drive and select "iFS User Profile", it shows the Default ACL
as "Published".
Is this a known feature?
I want my users to be able to do everything from Windows
Explorer, but they need to copy and paste "template" folder
structures. If they do this in Windows Explorer, the ACL's do
not get copied. I could understand if someone says the pasted
folders are new folders, so they should get the user's Default
ACL, but even that isn't working, so the users must go through
each folder/file and reestablish an ACL using Windows Explorer.
BTW, The Web Application copies the ACLs in a copy/paste
operation.
Thanks,
David Frankel

This is not the expected behavior for Oracle 9iFS. Please
contact your Oracle Support Services representative and log a

Transfering Files Using Windows Explorer

Rather than using windows media player, why can't I just use windows explorer to add photos to my droid 2? When I hook up my droid 2 to my computer with the usb cable, the droid appears in windows explorer. I want to just drag and drop photos to the droid. I have tried this with a couple of photos and it seems to work. Will this method cause any problems? It seems a lot easier than using windows media player to "sync" files.

It apeaqrs that they automatically go into the photo folder. I was able to access them via the "Gallery" app.
I wonder why the user guide doesn't recommend this since I find it a lot easier to do than using the "sync" process?

Specify an input file using Windows Explorer

Hi, I'm very new to Orchestrator.
Instead of writing stand-alone PowerShell scripts to perform tasks against an input file, I would like to use Orchestrator, thus avoiding the need to write the code.
Is there a way to specify an input file using Windows Explorer via Orchestrator? When invoked, I would like my Runbook to open up Windows Explorer, where I could navigate to my input file, then press OK and have my automated processes run. Do
I need to look beyond Orchestrator, say towards Service Manager, or is this natively available in Orchestrator?
Thanks,
Nick.

Hi,
there are several Ways.
you can use the SCO Webconsole, to start a Runbook and put in a Porpertie.
you can use SCSM with SMPortal to define the File
or you can use the free EUPSCO Portal, to build a Webfrontend for SCO

Multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe while using Windows Explorer Preview Pane

I'm trying to understand why our computers behave differently while browsing PDF files using Windows Explorer with the preview pane turned on.
All are Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.
The scenario: Open Windows Explorer with the preview pane turned on, go to a folder full of PDF files, and start single-clicking on them, one by one down the list. Keep Task Manager open, on the Processes tab, showing processes from all users, as you click on the PDF files.
On two of the computers, you can keep clicking right on the down the list, and the preview pane shows the PDF file contents immediately with each click. The Task Manager does not show any instances of AcroRd32.exe running, and the machine does not slow down no matter how quickly you go down the list of files. You can keep clicking all day.
On the other two computers, as you keep clicking down the list, after about six or seven clicks, the machine starts getting slower and slower in responding to display the PDF contents. In Task Manager, you see multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe executing, and the list keeps growing with more instances - I've seen up to 8, with memory allocations to some of the instances approaching 700MB! One of the CPU cores goes to 100%. If you stop clicking in Windows Explorer, eventually, the machine recovers, and the list of multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe shrinks, but never goes away completely until you close the Explorer window.
What could account for this difference? One of the users is complaining - he often browses folders of scanned PDFs looking for invoices, transactions, etc., and has to go slowly to keep his machine from bogging down. I don't know when this behavior started.
It doesn't matter if it is a shared folder on a network resource or one locally on the machine, or if it is an admin or standard Windows account - the behavior is the same. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader, to no avail.
Thanks for any ideas.

Yes i'm having this issue to.
Becomes worse after display many documents in pane, worst even if scanned images are in.
After killing the process, sometimes it generate even more process.
After Killing all the process, sometimes need to deactivate the pane view and activate
again to restore normal preview.
Sometimes it takes a lot of time to progress to file below, if i wait, going to files above, it pass
the file that shows delay, without any problem.
I add received from Microsoft, in answer to the same issue to uninstall adobe reader and install
latest version. It become a bit more stable, but problem still shows.
Abobe reader: 10.1.0, ATI latest drivers 11-07
Please, Help!

No preview, thumbnails, or search in Windows Explorer 64 bit Vista

No preview in Windows Explorer for 64-bit Vista... is this supposed to be fixed in 8.1.2? Also, can't perform Windows Searches against the contents of PDF files, and the majority of PDF thumbnails are not showing up in Explorer. Not interested in using Tim Heuer/Foxit because it crashes frequently and doesn't deal with searches or thumbnails.
I assume all these problems are related to 64-bit--when can we expect a fix?

There is no fix - the pdfshell driver doesn't support x64 Windows.

Searching in Windows Explorer - Help!

Hello everyone! I'm hoping someone can help me. I have made a bunch of pdf files searchable and then when I am in windows explorer and i click on search it only searches the content of the doc files. how do I get it to search the pdf files content also? Thank you for your help!

The best method is to open Acrobat and go to Edit>Search (shift-ctrl-F). Select the desired folder and complete the rest of the form. This will search all PDF files.
The alternative is to use the DOS command line tool find or findstr. If you use Win 7 and index your files (I try not to index because of speed and space), you can go to the Start>Control Panel>Indexing Options>Advanced>File Types and select the PDF content to be indexed. I have some PDFs that I can find words in and others that I can not. I guess the latter is due to encryption or such, not sure. In such cases, I was able to use the Acrobat search function to find the files, but not the DOS search. The latter would mean that even 3rd party search engines (I use AstroGrep) would not find those. So if the text is available literally, you can find it with one of the basic searches. However, Acrobat is more robust for the search of PDF files and will find them even when the file search engines will not.
If you have previous Windows versions, you have to change the file search option in the registry. However, you can still use the DOS commands. Just open DOS (Start>Cmd and enter cmd), and you can use find and findstr. To change the directory you use 'cd <directory>'. You can get help on the commands by typing 'find /?' or 'findstr /?', but I recommend just using Acrobat.

DX4000 Search in Windows Explorer not working

I'm the administrator of a 6TB DX4000 which is the NAS at our office of 4 PCs. The Sentinel holds about 25GB of our working data (word, excel, pdf, and other files), which I back-up every 2 days onto a WD My Passport Ultra UDB drive. I can do this using Copy/Paste functions in Windows Explorer. The USB drive can be connected via my PC or, for faster back-ups, via one of the USB ports at the back of the Sentinel (I have configured the USB drive as a shared folder). During and after the backups, everything works well (all of us at the office can save, modify, and create new folders and files). The only problem is that Windows Explorer stops displaying files/folders, also the WE search function stops working for a few hours in all PCs. Thus, we cannot locate files when the search function is not working, which is a big problem for us. This happens irregularly (sometimes after each backup and at times every couple of weeks). I’m quite certain that this issue is being originated by the backup process. I have tried a few things: restarted PCs/Sentinel/Switch/Modem to no avail. All updates have been carried-out. Also, I checked other forums/threads but haven't found a similar problem. Everything is working fine, except that we can’t do searches in WE (also searches don’t work in Word or any other software). Inexplicably, WE starts to work again by itself in full capacity a few hours later. Please let me know if there is a solution to this issue. Thanking you in advance.

Hi Gramps, Many thanks for your thoughts. It took me a while to try various ideas, hence my slow response. When Windows Explorer was not working, Remote Desktop Connection was not working either (it was hung-up and would not load further than saying something along the lines of: updating desktop settings). However, the Dashboard remained operational during this time. In answer to your query: Yes, I shared the USB My Passport from the Dashboard when I first set-up the system 9 months ago. Following your ideas, I unshared the drive using the Dashboard. This took few hours. Then I rebooted the Sentinel and all the PCs. I’m glad to report that the WE is now fully operational and that the WE search function is now working. Also, RDC is working again. I’m beginning to agree with your thoughts that File Indexing is the problem since I have been disconnecting the USB My Passport as soon as the copying of files was completed (thus Indexing may have been incomplete). Please let me know if there is a way of testing if “File Indexing” has been completed. Much appreciated.

How do I find the directory where my bookmarks are kept using windows explorer?

Neither firefox nor internet explorer work anymore on my administrator account, but internet explorer works on my guest account. Perhaps a virus caused this. But windows explorer works fine. Computer is so fouled up I want to just buy a new one, better and cheaper than fixing the old one.
I need to locate my firefox bookmarks and need to know how to transfer them into the new computer.
