Synchronization with no network (swapping files with a memory stick)

I've been searching this forum and reading the docs for DbLite 10.2 and I have not seen this mentioned.
Is there any provision in the mobile server and mobile client to synchronize the DbLite database by swapping data via some physical media like a memory stick.
In a military application that we are involved with, we are being asked to provide for situations where DbLite will exist in locations with no network to connect to.
I'd appreciate if anyone can provide any info or documentation references on this point.
Thanks

Morgan,
There is a sample demo called Open Transport demo. It allows you to transfer data via a physical meduim, a floppy disk in this case. It comes as a part of Mobile Development Kit. I am on 10.2.0.2.0 at the moment. Please look at $OH\Mobile\Sdk\samples\Sync\win32\opentransport. I think this might be what you are looking for.
Thanks.

Is there a problem with USB Memory Sticks and OSX?

This may not be the correct forum for this question but I don't know where else to ask!
I am having problems with a 64GB USB Memory Stick. Acrobat Reader can't read a pdf file on the memory stick but no problem from the hard drive. Acrobat Reader won't work from the memory stick. Music files (aif) won't play from the memory stick.
The memory stick came formatted for MS-DOS but I re-formatted it to MAC-OS Extended. I can write files to it but they don't seem to work from there. Is there some incompatability with OSX that I am not aware of? I would welcome some advice.

MAke sure the drive is inserted and mounted, then launch Terminal from /Applications/Utilities. Type:
mount
and hit Enter.
One of the lines returned will contain the words, "/Volumes/<name of your flash drive>". Copy that whole line and paste it here so we can see what's up.

If you use 'Disc Utility' you can format the stick (this will erase its contents) to be exFat which will still work with Mac and Windows but allow a larger file sizes to be placed onto the stick.
Disc Utility > Click the drive on the left > Erase (tab) > Change format to ExFat > Erase > Try putting the file on to the stick again.

How do I move a file from a memory stick to a an external drive using a mac (copy paste doesnt work)

How do I move a file from one memory stick to another using mac pro? copy paste doesnt work

Have you tried simply dragging the file from one stick to the other? Do you know the format of the memory sticks (Macs can't write to those formatted as NTFS without the use of third-party software)?

Files saved on memory stick on pc show as original file name followed by .XML and i cannot open why

files saved on memory stick on pc show as original file name followed by .XML for example tester.doc.XML, is there any reason? I cant open these on mac, if i put it back in PC is shows file as normal without .XML. Confused.com any ideas.

I have files on my work laptop (PC) e.g. document1.doc (word document), I then save it to my memory stick (which i have reformatted, I also tried my external disk drive) and then take that to my macbook, plug it in and in finder it then shows as document1.doc.XML, which i cannot open. It happens to all types of files, it just seems to add .XML on the end of everything.

How to I transfer a photo file to a memory stick

How to I transfer a photo file to a memory stick so that I can use the USB in a photo frame?

First the USB stick needs to be formatted in a format the frame can see. That is usually FAT32, the Windows and mostly Universal format (It probably already is formatted like that).
Next is what photo cataloging and editing program are you using? If it is iPhoto you need to Export the image or images you want to place on that card/stick. Not sure how that is done exactly as I don't use iPhoto but it is one of the menu item options (Could be under the File menu item).
Then during the export it should ask you where you want to exprt them TO. you would browse to the USB stick and select it. If it Auto places them on your dekstop then use Finder to coy and paste them from your desktop to the USB stick. Or you can try Drag & Drop (I personally never use that as I've never like it) from the Desktop to the USB stick.

How to delete locked files on flash memory stick

Several files on my memory stick have somehow become locked and cannot be deleted. When I unlock them in their Info window and then close the window, they revert to locked status. How can I delete these files?
iBook Mac OS X (10.3.9)

When I unlock them in their Info window and then close the window, they revert to locked status.
This suggests that the items have the schg flag set; it is possible to turn the flag off, but if there's little or nothing else you want on the drive, you're better off by copying the remaining items if any to your hard disk and then reformatting the flash drive in the Disk Utility, which is in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder. If you still want to clear the flag, follow the instructions for your version of Mac OS X on this page.

How do I download documents/files from a memory stick onto my MacBook Pro into organised folders

How do I download documents/files from a memory stick on to my MacBook Pro and organise in to Folders?

Hi RockingRon,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The Finder application on your Mac is what you need to organize and manage files. The link below will explain how to use it. See item #8 - your memory stick will appear in the Devices section of the Sidebar on the left.
Mac Basics: The Finder
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2470
Mac Basics: Applications, files, and folders (OS X Lion)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2476
Organizing files and folders
If you want to add more folders to set up an organizational scheme, here's how to create a new folder:
Make the Finder active (click the desktop, click inside any Finder window, or click the Finder icon in the Dock).
From the File menu, choose New Folder; a new "untitled folder" icon appears in the active Finder window.
Name your folder by simply typing a name in the highlighted text box next to the folder icon.
Or, you can simply press the Shift-Command-N key combination.
To organize your files and folders, drag any file, folder, or application that you want into your new folder, or drag the folder into any other folder to establish an organized hierarchy.
Cheers,
- Judy

Automator to sync with a memory Stick

i am looking to have a memory stick every time i plug it in to my mac, to automatically check with a folder on my hard drive and sync up any changes with the 1 folder (and subfolders) bi directionally (same stick and folder every time)
this is a mem stick that i take to work and sometimes modify files elsewhere as well as i modify the files on my computer.... sometimes there will be 1 file on the stick newer then 1 file on the computer and will beed to sync bi directionally. it would be nice if this was autmatic, but if it has to be a "triggered event" i can live with that too
thank you in advance

Carbon Copy Cloner might do this for you (google it. free).
1. Select the source. Deselect everything. Then select the one folder you want to backup.
2. Select the Thumb as Destination.
3. From the CCC Menu, select "Schedule Tasks..."
4. From the "Run this task...." dropdown, select "when target is reconnected".
Now, it should kick on when you put in the thumb.

How to see hidden files on my memory stick?

I have 4 memory sticks and 2 are completly useless now having all 4GB full of deleted files that are still on the stick somehow but can only been seen when I plug it into my PS3 and click 'see all'.
Is there anyway or apps to see everything on my memoery stick or simply wipe it back to 'factory settings'?

Open Terminal and type:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE && killall Finder
It will show all the files. To return it to the default settings, change TRUE for FALSE

Need simple instructions to move .jpeg file to usb memory stick

Firstly, is a USB stick called a remote disk in Apple talk language?
In finder I see devices and remote disk. I try to move a .jpeg file to that (while assuming it is the USB stick that I stuck in the back panel of the iMAC) but nothing seems to happen. I can't see anything. There are no files there and if I click nearby in the left panel it keeps wanting to close or hide.
All I want to do is move one .jpeg file to a USB stick then bring that stick to a professional printer asap.
Hope that someone can help.

A Flashdrive (USB stick) or Memory Card icon looks like white square box on both the Desktop and in Finder Devices. In Finder you will also see an Eject button just to the left of the Flashdrives icon. Yours may not have a name like my example, because I name mine to make it easier to keep track of them.
To move images to the Flashdrive, you should be able to simply drag and drop then to either the Desktop or Finder icon.
To check and see if the images have copied to the Flashdrive simply highlight the Flashdrive on the sidebar.
Lastly always Eject External Drives and Flashdrives before disconnecting or unplugging them.
Additionally if you get an error or can not write to the device message, then the Flashdrive is probably formatted for Windows.
Hope this helps you out.

Low data transfer with memory stick on a Satellite A100-207

Hi, whenever I stick the memory stick from my Sony Ericsson P990i Smartphone into my notebook it says it has detected new hardware and needs to reboot to use it.
I kinda expected this first time, but it does it EVERY TIME now. Which means transfering files onto the memory stick takes a lot longer than it should and it is far easier (but a lot less convient) to transfer them via my network to my main home PC and use the card reader in my Epson printer to put the files on the memory stick.
Anyone know why this happens and how to stop it. I need to regularly update files on the memory stick as they are edited both on the laptop and the phone (via QucikOffice which comes pre-installed and alows editing of word and excel files).
Any help or ideas is appreicated.
Andy

I agree with Andrej. You should be 100% sure that this card is compatible with the card reader on the notebook.
Furthermore what transfer rate do you expect?
I think every card has different write/read access times. So do not compare it with other cards.

Problems with 10.4.9 and USB memory stick??

Since I've updated to 10.4.9 I'm having nothing but grief when using my Memorex USB 1GB memory stick. I use it for backing up crucial files (e.g address book, etc.)
Now, when I attempt to copy files to the memory stick, the system goes into an infinite loop (spinning beachball forever) -- even all night long, even though the files I'm transferring aren't very big. Some of my files copy, but some don't.
This has happened three times now. The Finder is "not responding" and won't even let me do a relaunch -- I end up with a blank screen with a corrupted menu bar. The only thing that gets me going again is to Power OFF, twice!! After the first power off, pause, power on, I just get the Apple logo and spinning spokes. Soon the fan comes on full force in the CPU. Runs forever. So, power off again, pause, power on and this time the start up is OK, my desktop etc. all appear OK. (I remove the memory stick before powering on).
On the latest attempt, I had to power off and on three times before things were OK.
I erased the memory stick to start fresh, but still, the same problem -- and infinite Finder loop when attempting to copy files over. Lots of available space. Some files/folders copy. But when I simply try to open a folder on the stick, ....the infinite loop again.
What's going on??!!________

The repetitive powering off and on has resulted in a damaged drive directory and/or corrupted system files. Although you can try repairing the hard drive I suspect you will have to reinstall OS X.
Try this first:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If this doesn't help (and I don't think it will) but the hard drive is repaired and OK, then you can reinstall OS X by doing an Archive and Install which does not erase the drive:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.
If the hard drive cannot be repaired then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall OS X.
