SIMPLE : Move FIle from Mac to SMB system

I would like to move 1 file to a SMB connection. The script works when moving the file from afp to afp. But when I run this script I get a message that the program can't deliver the file.
So I have always connection between the disks (Script that starts every day)
The path is OK but I guess it's something with privileges? Don't get more info about that from scripteditor.
tell application "Finder"
activate
set this_file to ("SERVER1:DATABASES:DATA1:test.txt")
move this_file to ("smb:192.168.000.000:X:DATABASES:DATA1:") with replacing
end tell
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
or ("Volumes:X:DATABASES:DATA1:")

You approaching this in the wrong way.
When you ask the Finder to move a file you specify the source file and the destination directory.
You're trying to provide a URL, and that's the mistake.
If your SMB volume is mounted on the desktop then its path will be /Volumes/SERVER_NAME, and you can just reference it by name, therefore you want something more like:
tell application "Finder"
  set this_file to "SERVER1:DATABASES:DATA1:test.txt
  move this_file to folder "SERVER_NAME:X:DATABASES:DATA1:"
end tell
As far as the Finder is concerned, the first element of a path is taken as the volume name.
You might want to add some error checking to ensure the volume is mounted before trying to move the file, too.

    how do i move files from mac mini to external hard drive

    The simplest method would be to drag & drop the files you want to move to the external drive using the Finder. Just open both the source and destination locations in separate Finder windows.

  • I cannot open a .mov file from MAC on a PC

    I have a Mac Dual G5 with Mac Os X 10.4.8 and I was making a short HDV movie(only 4Giga) in FCExpress.
    I export the movie in H264 1920 X1080 in the QT Conversion window and save them in a .mov file (with blue QT label).
    After saving I can open and view the movie with the Mac, no problem.
    I make a copy on a DVD for mine friend.
    I will open the movie on his PC but it don't work.
    He had a Pentium Dual 840 3.2 Ghz Window XP Pro service pack 1 and 2, 2wDirectx9 2 giga Ram 256 nVidia Ge Force 6800
    On the PC we install also Quick Time Pro 7.1 for Windows with register number.
    When we activate the .mov file on the PC(.mov file from the Mac) we see the Quick Time window in black or white without image.
    We try many times but we cannot find a solution..
    To day we buy by the Apple Store QT MPEG 2-Playback Component for PC.
    After installation we have every time the same problem, no image in the QT windown.
    What can I do?
    Thanks for assistance

    Dear Sir
    I find a solution for the problem.
    What you say is correct, it is a codex problem.
    I download a other program Cineform Aspect HD.199 U$.
    Now I can open easy everyone .mov file on the PC(.mov files from the MAC).
    Mine conclusion: QuickTime Pro for Windows don’t support H264 codex,
    and don’t support any .mov file from the MAC !
    Apple make big publicity on their website for QT Pro 7 for Windowns.
    They say “QT Pro 7 for Windows support H264 codex”.
    I try many days with Apple Support team, they don’t find a solution.
    Good evening and thank you for assistance,

  • Cannot copy files from mac via smb

    I have a very strange effect since I went from 10.6 to 10.7. (I am on 10.7.2 now).
    My Windows 7 PC can no longer copy files via SMB from the Mac to Windows.
    I first thought this has to do with McAfee Endpoint Encryption, since the error message is
    "Catastrophic Failure" (nothing else) in a small popup window which says McAfee Endpoint
    Encryption in the title bar.
    But then I discovered I can also not copy files to my Ubuntu system. The error message I get on
    Ubuntu (11.10) is: "Operation not supported".
    Both systems (the windows and the ubuntu system) however can copy via SMB from other systems
    or among each other. It's actually from the Mac with which I have problems.
    Nothing has changed for my Sharing Settings, but the only way currently to get files from my Mac
    to the other systems is through an external harddisk, not over the network.
    I see messages in other forums talking about that SMB in 10.7 is broken and Apple changed
    to an unstable code base, but I can't find real helpful information on what the source of this
    problem could be.
    Any ideas?

    The guy who controls the GPL licensing created a new scheme to prevent hardware manufacturers from limiting users to what the manufacturer wanted the users to be able to do (see Tivoisation). Samba, the code that Apple used for SMB took up that licensing scheme. So, Apple had to find another method in Lion.
    Try turning on the Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) in your windows boxes and use that instead
    I don't have much need for smb file sharing, so I don't have many details. I have seen hints that certain passwords don't work, but I don't know why.
    Some useful sites for possibly finding a solution are MacWindows and MacInTouch.

  • Problems viewing exported .mov file from Mac for viewing on PC

    I am working with a reporter who has a PC at home while I am editing a video for her using FCE 4.1 on a MacBook Pro, using HD footage from a Canon Vixia HF20 AVCHD camera. I burned a draft of the video we are working on for her to look at on her home PC, exporting the FCE project as a straight .mov file. But she could not view it on her PC even though she has viewed .mov files on her computer in the past (but this is the first time she has tried to look at .mov file exported from FCE on a Mac). What might the issue here be? Do I need to export the file in a different way? Might she have an older version of Windows Media Player or be unable to view certain versions of .mov files on her computer? Should I hand it off to her instead as an .mp4 file? Any help much appreciated.
    Douglas

    You'll need to copy the Apple HDV Codec to your MacBook. Since it won't be Intel native (unless you get FCP 5.1) you'll have to force QuickTime Player to run in Rosetta; it should be a setting in the Get Info window for QT Player. You should then be able to view the video (though I haven't tested this myself).
    Hope this helps.

  • How to move files from mac to external drive

    I need to free up storage on my macbook pro, I bought an external drive and have copied the files over.  Then in finder after transfer I moved the files to trash off of my MacBook.  However, when I check the storage it still shows the same amount of storage space taken up.  What are the steps after transferring files to external drive to clear storage on harddisk?

    Slightly surprised this has been asked several times before - "More Like This" on the right.

    It's likely that the drive is malfunctioning or that there is an internal hardware fault, but to confirm, see below.
    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Is there a way to connect my iPhone 4S to my Mac directly,
    say ... via a program or such on my MAC, to drag and drop the photos and Movie files,
    directly into a folder. ??????????
    Reason want to connect iPone to MAC or MAC to iPhone is ....
    I have no DATA on my iPhone Mobile plan at moment.
    So Photosync app is no good, as I can't download the app to my iPhone.
    I can download a Photosync to my MAC ...
    but with the Photosync app you can only send data.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • How do I move files from my mac to icloud drive to free up space on my mac

    How do I move files from my mac to icloud drive to free up space on my mac?
    I moved one file; then when I went to delete it from the Mac it said i was deleting it from the iCloud drive. How do I leave it in iCloud drive, but get rid of it on my Mac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Are these videos in your camera roll or purchases made from iTunes.

  • I can no longer play quicktime mov files from a canon firestore

    I can no longer play quicktime mov files from a canon firestore from an HDV camera that play on other macs and play in vlc. It happened all of a sudden. Files that I could play before no longer play. It seems to be something wrong with the quicktime codec management because the files do not play in premiere and final cut pro. In FCP it says: File Error: 1 File(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown. These files work on other computers. I have four drives and it doesnt matter which file i attempt to open on each drive, these files are unreadable on this system. Please help. Possible issues might be a corrupted index, but i dont understand how that can go across four different drives.
    Model Name:          Mac Pro

    Apple kindly updated Quicktime and rendered Firestore files unplayable. I think a recent update of iTunes was the culprit.
    Solutions: What I did. Wipe the system disc. Re-install Snow Leopard. Re-install FCP7. Don't update Quicktime or iTunes to anything after Jun 2011. QT v7.6.6 is the last good version. That'll get your files back.
    A colleague tried a different approach. For this you need a pre-July 2011 version of the file QuickTimeComponents.component.  It is in the system/library/QuickTime folder. Delete your current one and drop in an old one.
    However if you're working with Final Cut X, I think you screwed until Focus and Apple work something out. My address is on my contacts page at teevideousadotcom if you need any further help.

  • Using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook

    When using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro, that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook, will emails, contacts and calendar entries be moved to Outlook on the new MacBook or into Mail, Contacts and Calendar?

    I doubt they will. But then I'm not sure as I used a migration program once about 18 years ago and totally FUBARed the system I had at that time and I've never used one again.
    For me the reason to have a new system is to start fresh. Installing only program that I now use and manually copying data over from the older system.
    Not sure your older version of Outlook, and the outlook mail boxes, are compatible with Office/Outlook for Mac 2011.
    A better place to ask this question would be on the MS Office for Mac forums.
    Hope it all works out for you.

  • What's the best way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my 2014 MBP?

    What’s a good way to move files from my 2012 iMac to my MBP?
    I prefer to do graphic work on my 21-inch iMac (2012 version). But when I travel I need to copy files to my 2014 MBP. I learned that my 2012 iMac is too old for use of AirDrop, so I’m copying and moving files with a flash drive. That seems slow and clumsy. Is there a better way?

    Target Disk Mode would provide a direct connection between the two Macs:

    Nothing simpler than that is available.

    It isn't a "Blue Screen of Death", the website doesn't load and the Firefox screen turns completely (no search bars left) tinted blue color that Windows 7 uses. I am guessing this is related to an addon but not sure. Here is a picture: http://i1176.p
