Smart folder too long!

Hi there
I have had to create a smart folder to filter what goes on my ipod as the library is too big for the ipod drive
I have been doing this for a few months and have now found that the window where you enter the variables is too big! It won't scroll down to the older variables and can't be resized.
So the question is, how can I view all the variables in my smart playlist?
cheers

The conditions editing box does not have scroll bars so there is no way to scroll down to see items off screen. The only way to get to them is to delete enough conditions that the bottom of the edit window comes into view.
The best way around this problem is two use three smart playlists. One has conditions 1 - 20, the second with conditions 21 - 40, and the third selects playlist 1 and playlist 2.
If you need to limit the number of tracks, then you might want to use a smart playlist to do the limiting. Say you have created playlists 1 and 2 as above. Playlist 3 could then select playlist 1 and playlist 2 and could then be set to "Limit to 20 GB selected by [your choice]". I put in 20 GB as an example, you would put in the appropriate limiting size.

Spotlight comments search and smart folder fails

Spotlight search of the "Spotlight Comments" field fails after a file is saved in TextEdit or iWork programs.
I reproduced this failure, 100% of the time, in OS X 10.8 and 10.8.1 (with iCloud enabled or with it iCloud disabled) and can not reproduce this failure in Mac OS X 10.7.x
The steps to reproduce are simple and quick:
Create a new test file in TextEdit and Save it on the Mac (saved as, for example, test.rtf)
Quit TextEdit
In the Get Info panel for the test.rtf file and enter some unique text in the Spotlight Comments: field, for example XYZZY:
In Finder create a new Smart Folder (File > New Smart Folder)
Create a search criteria in the Spotlight comment field for the unique text from step 3 (XYZZY in this example) and hit Save and name the Smart FolderNote, the test.rtf file immediately appears in the smart folder
Open the test.rtf with TextEdit and change the text and Save the file.
Note, as soon as you hit Save in TextEdit the test.rtf file disapears from the SmartFolder. This is the error. Also note, the Spotlight Comment value (in this example, the text XYZZY) is unchanged, it still exists.
See attached screen shot after step 7 that shows the smart folder no longer shows the text.rtf file even though the search criteria is met.
I have reproduced this error with TextEdit and Pages and Numbers but not with other applications that are not iCloud enabled.

What MrHoffman said.
But if it's easier, you can wrap it in Automator and have Automator ask for the Folders: (Test on a sample of your files before running on all 700 files)
(do you really own 700 movies??)
The Workflow is:
Put this in the Run Shell Script Action (and pass input as arguments":
PicDir=$1
MovDir=$2
for f in $PicDir/*
do
     if [ ! -d "$f" -a "${f##*.}" = "jpeg" ]; then
          comment=$(mdls -raw -name kMDItemFinderComment "$f")
          if [[ $comment != "(null)" ]]; then
               picname=${f##*/}
               movname=${picname%.*}.m4v
               if [[ -e "$MovDir"/$movname ]]; then
osascript <<-EOF
tell application "Finder"
set comment of file (POSIX file "$MovDir/$movname") to "$comment"
end tell
EOF
               fi
          fi
     fi
done
(BTW, I know that this is a bit of sloppy scripting (wraping an osascript in a Bash Script wrapped in Automator, but it does what you need)

Source path too long :-Unable to delete mutiple number of folder and files from windows 2008 R2 file server

Hi Team,
we have a file server on windows server 2008 R2, I have copied some data from one server to another server using robocopy . I have checked access permission it seems okay no issues with access permission. but when i am trying to delete these folder i am
getting below error message
Error message:-
The source file name are larger than is supported by the file system.try moving to a location which has a shorter path name or try renaming to shortcut names before attempting this operations

I have tried everything , but nothing help , getting same error
could any one help me regarding this.
Regards, Triyambak
I have not looked at the other thread mentioned, but usually when this ends up happening, There are several ways to go about it. One is to map a drive to the UNC path deeper into the folder structure.
So instead of C:\long\path\that\we\dont\want\files\in
You map a drive.. lets say M:\ to \\computer\c$\long\path\that\we\dont\want
Now, when you open Explorer to M:\ you've elimintated the length of the path down to M:\files\in which is completely usable.
The other way, is to shorten the names of everything. For example...
Folder structure like this:
Root
-----Folder1
-----Folder2
--------------Folder2A
-----Folder3
--------------Folder3A
Rename all the folders to shorten up the path. Rename Folder1 to '1' Rename Folder2 to '2', Rename folder3 to '3. Then try to delete. If it's still too long, go one folder deeper. Rename Folder2A to '1' and
Rename Folder3A to '1' and so on. Basically keep renaming everything to a single digit character and eventually you'll shrink the path down to where you can shift-delete everything remaining.
Hope that helps.

DFS Error 9061 (Replicated folder offline for too long) won't go away

We have a server that got disconnected from a DFS replication group for too long. The error says to remove the server from the group and re-add it. I've done that about 6 times and I keep getting the error. I even tried deleting the replicated folder on
the server so it would copy from other servers but the error just won't go away. How can I get rid of it and get the folder replicating again?

Hi,
Based on your description, we can try to following the steps described in the section

The specified file or folder name is too long,the url path for all files and folders

The specified file or folder name is too long,the url path for all files and folders must be 260 character or less
can we increase this limit?
MCTS,ITIL

Hi,
As I understand, you want to increase the length of URL path in SharePoint 2010.
Per my knowledge, this limit cannot be increased. SharePoint limits URL length because all relative URL links are stored in the clear forms on the SharePoint content DB and often this links are used as primary keys to link one table with another. Fields
which are used to store these links (for instance tp_DirName from the AllUserData table) allow storing only 256 characters.
There are several ways that you can resolve or mitigate URL length problems in the SharePoint Server 2010 environment. The following list provides suggestions:
1. Upgrade all the end-user browsers to Internet Explorer 8, which has a longer URL length limit.
2. Use shorter names for sites, folders, and documents and control the depth of the site and folder structures to reduce the lengths of URLs.
3. If possible or allowed, use ASCII names for sites, folders, and documents. This will avoid situations where the URL will be lengthened by being encoded.
4. To reduce the risk that the SharePoint Server 2010 end-users will encounter problems because of URL length limitations, we recommend that you apply the following effective limits in the deployment:
256 Unicode (UTF-16) Code units - the effective file path length limitation, including a domain/server name
128 Unicode (UTF-16) Code units - the path component length limitation

Web application deployment takes too long?

Hi All,
We have a wls 10.3.5 clustering environment with one admin server and two managered servers separately. When we try to deploy a sizable web application, it takes about 1 hour to finish. It seems that it takes too long to finish the deployment. Here is the output from one of two managerd server system log. Could anyone tell me it is normal or not? If not, how can I improve this?
Thanks in advance,
John

Hi John,
There may be some circumstances like when there are many files in the WEB-INF folder and JPS don't use TLD.
I don't think a 1hour deployment is normal, it should be much more faster.
Since you are using 10.3.5, I suggesto you to install the corresponding patch:
1. Download patch 10118941p10118941_1035_Generic.zip
2. Uncompress the file p10118941_1035_Generic.zip
3. Copy the required files (patch-catalog_XXXXX.xml, CIRF.jar ) to the Patch Download Directory (typically, this folder is <WEBLOGIC_HOME>/utils/bsu/cache_dir).
4. Rename the file patch-catalog_XXXXX.xml into patch-catalog.xml .
5. Start Smart Update from <WEBLOGIC_HOME>/utils/bsu/bsu.sh .
6. Select "Work Offline" mode.
7. Go to File->Preferences, and select "Patch Download Directory".
8. Click "Manage Patches" on the right panel.
9. You will see the patch in the panel below (Downloaded Patches)
10. Click "Apply button" of the downloaded patch to apply it to the target installation and follow the instructions on the screen.
11. Add "-Dweblogic.jsp.ignoreTLDsProcessingInWebApp=true" to the Java options to ignore additional findTLDs cost.
12. Restart servers.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Can Aperture not be set up to show a "Last Import" smart folder?

I'm trying to make the transfer from using iPhoto to using Aperture.
One thing I found really great in iPhoto was the smart folder that was simply set to show the last import, no matter when that import was done - whether it was today, yesterday or 6 months ago.
The reason I found this so handy was because I set my iPad up in iTunes to only sync the photos from that Last Import smart folder, rather than all my photos.
That way, every time I synced my iPad, I always had my most recent photos on my iPad, no matter when the pictures were taken.
Now with Aperture, I cannot see a way to create anything similar. The best I can do is to create a smart folder with photos imported within the last month, let's say.
But the problem with that is that if I haven't imported any new photos for over a month, then the next time I sync my iPad, then all my photos will no longer be on the iPad.
If I create a longer timeframe, to let's say 3 months, then I might end up with way too many photos trying to sync across, and that's something I don't want. I could end up with hundreds and hundreds of photos, and I don't have the free space to be able to do this!
When I used "Last Import" with iPhoto, then I always only had around 50 or 60 photos, because that's just generally how many I usually imported at any one time. Sometimes it was more, sometimes less, but the average worked for me.
So to sum up: Can Aperture not be set up to show a "Last Import" smart folder, regardless of date?
Or alternatively, is there any way I could "hack" or "trick" Aperture into doing something like this so that I always have a managable amount of the most recent photos on my iPad?

Hello Brett,
that does not seem to be an easy probem as you discovered.
Some Workarounds:
You might to use a smart album rule "Import session is" instead of a date range, but that will not be automatic.
Create a folder "recently added" and keep your recent projects inside that folder; create a smart album at the top level of that folder; move older projects somewhere else.
Or enable the Photo Stream - that is the current replacement for the "most recently added" album; it will (is supposed to) always show the most recent 1000 images.
If you are familiar with AppleScript, you can make Aperture run an AppleScript on import (Import Settings) to add your imported image to an album of new images. From time to time remove the older images.
Sorry, but no really convenient way to do it..

ITunes v10.6.1.7 "Copying files failed. The File name was invalid or too long."

I'm trying to organize my music files using iTunes 10.6.1.7 and I keep getting the error message "Copying files failed. The File name was invalid or too long."
I've got music folders by artist in both the iTunes Music folder and the iTunes Media/Music folder. When I add certain files by drag/drop they sometimes get lost and I don't want that to happen anymore. I used to just consolidate my music files using the File/Library/Organize Library option and that worked, however now when I do that, I get the error message.
I'm a novice and the only online stuff I see is both confusing and refers to earlier versions of iTunes.
My concern is that I have heard that people lose entire libraries of their music when they trry to fix things like this and I don't want that. If this is of any importance, I have several files called iTunes library and temp library. I have no idea what that all means but I'm scared to death of it.
Also, I can't get to the "re-organize library" link at all. It won't let me.
One thing that be of some interest is that when I pull up the properties of the music and media/music files they are marked "read only" I'm also afraid to touch that!
Please help and please know that I am a dummy. Be kind and be clear. Step by step would be great, with images even better. Thanks.

Perhaps nobody knows the answer? We're fellow users here answering questions in our free time when we think we've something useful to contribute.
You can choose to *Consolidate selected tracks* with a right-click menu. Perhaps if you can identify a specific track that won't consolidate and examine the full path to the file & the path that iTunes would create when it consolidates the problem might become apparent. For example iTunes may not be able to move files if the source or destination path length exceeds 255 characters.

ITunes installation error - no C-drive, invalid C-drive, or specified path too long

This is an answer rather than a question as answer to a previous question seemed unresolved and I had similar problem which I have resolved. I thought posting it might help others...
My OS System disk wasn't set as the C-drive (how or why I'm not sure, but I have several OS installations and 2 hard-drives and must be a result of the way I installed these). And so I had no C-drive at all (except when I plugged in USB Pen's they would appear as C-drive).
iTunes wouldn't let me install unless I had a C-drive - probably said I had an invalid C-drive or something. So I tried creating a virtual C-drive by mapping the C: drive letter to a new empty folder on my system disk (G-drive) to "C:". See - http://ask-leo.com/i_have_no_c_drive_but_some_programs_insist_on_it_what_can_i_d o.html
This DIDN'T resolve the problem as it merely created a different error message - it said: "The specified path is too long C:\Program Files" NB This is despite me telling it to install iTunes to the G-drive.
Solution: I removed the virtual C-drive (ie. mapping of "C:" to the new folder) and instead in My Computer -> Manage -> Storage -> Disk Management, I assigned the C: drive letter to a drive partition I use for storing media (I plan to name it back else several programms will fail to store media correctly). I also moved the iTunes.exe installation file to that C: partition in case that helped. Installation (still told to be the G-drive) was now successful.
What I noticed is iTunes created the following path - C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.0_02\lib\ext - and dumped this file there: QTJava.zip Looks suspiciously like an install file for the bundled (and required) updated Quick Time, which it obviously requires to be dumped on a C-drive. Once installed I doubt that file will still be needed, so I'll delete it after I restart (it won't let me at the mo).
If you don't have extra partitions that you can assign C-drive to, then you could either try Adding (rather than changing) the C: drive letter to your current System disk. IN FACT I'M THINKING THAT'D BE THE BEST THING TO DO ANYWAY as then all programmes will use the correct system disk regardless of whether they think they should be using G: or C: (though I've not tried it, so can't be sure this works). Alternatively I reckon you could connect a USB stick and assign C-drive to that (if it isn't in fact automatically assigned it). Allow it to dump the QTJava.zip file on to it and once installed, you can remove the USB Stick - NB I'd suggest using the Safe Removal. (Well, might be worth restarting first in case it is referencing anything on it that isn't finished until restart.)
Hope this helps someone as was driving me potty coz I couldn't update my iTunes and thus couldn't sync my iPhone!

Hi AltafB,
For your situation, you can short the path for the source code. Or use a short path for build agent folder in your build definition. You can refer to the links below to solve your problem:

Cannot delete file: filename too long

Sometime ago, I made a copy of a hierarchy of folders under my "Users" folder to another drive as a quick backup. I no longer need this copy of folders and files. So when I tried to delete these files I got a message that some filenames are too long. When
I look at these files they mostly seem to be part of Internet Explorer temp directory, and also some files used by Mozilla Thunderbird, so they were likely created by these utilities on purpose. I cannot rename them to shorter names, or even move them to lower
folders. I can't even copy their filenames to show you what these filenames are! When I use the DOS prompt's "dir /x" command these files do not even have any 8.3 short filenames either, which I could've used to delete them with. There are over 400 of these
files!
I know what the problem is, the Windows OS has a limit of somewhere around 250 characters for filenames and complete pathnames. I've seen some utilities advertised saying that they can delete these files, but they all require money. Anything that's free?

Hi,
It is just for testing. It is good since the files can be deleted in Linux.
However, if you don't have Linux, it needs to find the way to delete the files under Windows.
Since the files are located in Internet Explorer temp directory, you could use Disk Cleanup to clear the Temporary Internet Files.
Also, check if the following KB is helpful. It has several methods. Go to check if 8.3 name creation is disabled.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;320081
Best Regards,
L.S
Regarding it being in the Internet Explorer temp directory, it actually wasn't. Remember I said in the original posting that this was in a backup directory of these directories, so Disk Cleanup has no way of knowing that this belongs to Internet Explorer
or anything else. Also there was a Thunderbird directory having the same issues as well, which Disk Cleanup wouldn't have touched no matter what.
Okay, I checked out the state of the filesystem registry. The "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" entry in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" is set to non-zero, meaning the feature is in effect. Interestingly it was set to 2
rather than 1, but I doubt that makes a difference.
Even if I disable this feature right now, all previously created files still won't be assigned the 8.3 filenames, just only those files that are newly created will have the 8.3 filenames available.

Please provide us the information which give details(document) about the Administartion of OBIEE 11gR2 on Linux).
2) The issue with installation of OCDM Sampple Reports though successful installation of OCDM Data Model.(First Installation Type from OCDM Installer)
Thanks & Best Regards,

I think, I cant Attach the file here and character limit is 30K for the post here so putting below the few lines of Log File content:
I can email the screen shots docs and complete log file on request if needed.
It stuck in Configuration Assistance screen -

Hi Please check my answers
1) How to login to Analytics after OBIEE 11gR2 installed on Linux - ( in our case we use user as Administrator and tried password same as username, even checked with the user weblogic and other but no success. Please provide us the information which give details(document) about the Administartion of OBIEE 11gR2 on Linux).
The current OCDM version does not support BIEE 11g, so you need to install BIEE 10g. In next release(will be available soon), OCDM will support BIEE 11g.
2) The issue with installation of OCDM Sampple Reports though successful installation of OCDM Data Model.(First Installation Type from OCDM Installer)
The importing will take a long time, you can login database with ocdm_sample_sys/ocdm_sample_sys, and use "select count(*) from tabs;" to monitor the import process.

Taking too long time to get LOV

HI,
I have created a customer folder in which the query retuns 0.5 million records.
I have created a item class in airline_name column which is being used in the worksheet as parameter.
The problem is it is taking too long time near about 2 min to get LOV when the user wants to search the exact name.
Thanks,
Himanshu Tiwari

Hi,
Usually, you should not use the folder that the report is based on to define the LOV. You should use a separate folder to define the LOV that is optimised to return the content of the LOV.

How to delete a Smart Folder?

I have been trying to delete a Smart Folder in the Search section of Finder. I have not been successful! I can't even open it or access it. I tried dragging it to Trash and it pops back to place. How do I eliminate this folder?

Yeah, that got introduced with 10.6.7. Too many people were dragging things off by mistake so they gave it the same process as removing something from the menubar. Too bad they didn't implement it for the dock...

Trying to restore a lost Thunderbird profile, but can't "move profile" because filenames are too long

I'm having a problem with Thunderbird that is addressed in several postings here and on "mozillaZine," but in trying to follow the instructions given for fixing it, I have run into a new problem that I don't see addressed. The original problem is the one described in this thread, where my folders and everything have just vanished, and I'm prompted on startup to create a whole new profile:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1040003
Following the links in that thread, I get to this -- and since my address book has also apparently disappeared, I click the internal link to the section headed "Lost Profile":
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Recovering_a_profile_that_suddenly_disappeared
Step 1 then sends me here:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder_-_Thunderbird
Step 2 on that page says, "Copy the profile folder to where you want to store it." When I try to do that, though (using Windows Explorer on Windows 7), it gets partway through the copying and then hangs up because it runs into a filename that is too long to copy. And according to the prompt that tells me this, there are many more such long filenames still to come.
Do I ignore this error and just skip those files? That means the profile copy won't be complete, which I would think would be dangerous and/or would just cause further errors. Or is there some simpler way altogether to do what I originally set out to do, which is recover the profile that just mysteriously disappeared?
Again, I'm running Thunderbird on Windows 7, and had been using it for years without ever before encountering this extremely irritating glitch. I'll be grateful for any help.

I very much appreciate both these answers and will save them for future reference if needed. The problem seems to be resolved, although not for any reason I can explain. What happened was that I suddenly had three problems all in the same 24 hours or so: a very slow, almost unusable internet (I thought connected with my "IPv6 Connectivity"), then the Thunderbird crash, then Google Chrome not starting. Whether and how these are all related, I don't know. Anyway, while I was sitting here unable to get e-mail or get back into this forum, I decided to try a System Restore just for the heck of it, even though someone else had reported this not working. And it too seemed to fail, at first, giving me an error message that said the system couldn't be restored due to an "unknown error." But clearly at least part of it worked, because I am seeing some earlier settings, and Thunderbird then started -- almost normally, except for needing my passwords entered again.
So I'm running "MozBackup" now in hopes of having the profile readily available next time this problem comes up. Also, Chrome is now working again after I did something or other with the security settings, and the internet seems normal even though my IPv6 status still shows "No network access." I really don't know what's been going on, but for whatever reason everything seems fixed. For now. :-S
Again, I'm sincerely grateful for your efforts to help me. Now that I'm a member of the forum I'll try to do the same for someone else.

Consolidating Library Error: File Name Too Long, But What File?

I am trying to consolidate my library to put all my music (very unorganized) in one spot so I can back it all up. When I try to consolidate, it takes a second to prepare, then immediately brings up an error window saying "Copying Music Failed. The file name was invalid or too long."
How do I fix this? I really would like to back up my music!

Hi, ZeroGravity107.
This can be a tricky problem to figure out since iTunes doesn't specify what file name is "invalid or too long" and there's no documentation on what determines if a file name is "invalid or too long".
We had one user report that he was able to use his/her keen eyesight to note the last file that appeared before the error message appeared and it turned out that file was the cause of his/her trouble.
If your eyesight isn't that keen, I'd suggest concentrating on the file name being too long possibility.
The entire directory path leading to the file is considered part of the file name so, as an example, iTunes' default settings might place a particular file at C:\Documents and Settings\ user name \My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\artist folder\album folder\whatever.m4a.
Is the directory path leading to your consolidated location much longer than that?
polydorus has suggested a way to look over your file names: Assuming your music is currently in the default location, make your way there with Windows Explorer and select List in the View menu menu and see if anything stands out as being unusual.

Smart folder too long!
