Trouble moving files from 10.9 to 10.4

Goodmorning,
I have many '.mov' files for a movie I am editing. The file has 2 codecs on it, AAC, and H.264. it is 1920x1080, 24p footage. When I open in on my OSx10.9 Mac, it plays fine in quicktime. When I plug my hard drive into my 10.4 mac, the file opens, however it has this green flash layered over my footage. It is not sequential, it just randomly flashes green. I would like to know why this is happening, and How I can fix this problem. Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

I think you may have to resign yourself to that. 10.4 Tiger? It is ancient (nearly 10 years old) software, probably the version of Quicktime Player (6?) can't play these movies properly. You could try running an older version of VLC on it and see if you get better results.

I am having trouble moving files from iPhoto to a thumb drive. Sometimes I can move 20 photos next time I can only move 2 photos or 0---this is during the same session. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. Can someone please help?

I am having trouble moving files from iphoto to a thumb drive. During the same session sometime I can move 10 photos at a time, the next time I can only move one photo and sometime no photos will move. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. I was using a MacBook Pro and had no problems like this. I then upgraded to the MacBook Pro with Retina Vision and this is the computer I am having problems with. Can anyone please give me a suggestion in how to fix this problem. THANK YOU.

iPhoto problems should be posted in their forums.
I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.
Needs clarification. You upload from your computer to the internet & download from a website/internet to your computer. So which are you trying to do? Either way, sounds like a browser issue. You need to post in the forum of whichever browser you are using.

Having trouble moving files from iWeb to iTunes

I recently added a podcast page to my website www.soapboxhavoc.com and would like to submit it to iTunes. All goes well until iTunes asks for the file location. I put in the page url but it didn't work. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Is this the link you're submitting?
http://rss.mac.com/rgerard1/iWeb/Soapbox%20Havoc/Podcast/rss.xml (note the use of "http" instead of "itpc" as shown on your site)
If it is, you have a couple minor errors to fix as shown at this testing site.

Trouble moving files from desktop to external harddrive

Hi there-I'd love some advice
I have all of my FCP express files on my desktop-the render/capture, etc. I'm trying to copy them to my Lacie external harddive. I keep getting error messages such as "cannot copy, error code 36" and various other things. Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing or what the problem is. I made a mistake and now have tons of gigs of files on my desktop and have to get them off. Help-Please!

Right click on the drive icon on your desktop and do 'get info'
Check out the format. If it is ms-dos, it needs to be reformatted. Please be aware that reformatting drives erases all material. Back up things you can not afford to loose.

Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.

I am having trouble transferring files from an old MacBook (2007) to a MacBook Air over a wireless network. The connection was interrupted and the time was over 24 hours. Is there a better way to do this? I'm using Migration assistant.

Issue in moving files from data fodler to processed folder in background

Hi All,
I am facing one issue in moving files from data fodler to processed folder in case of background execution.
When i am executing the file in the foreground, i can move the file from Data folder to processed folder. I am using SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE FM to move the file from data folder to processed folder. I can see the file in processed folder once the program is executed.
But in case of executing the same program in background, it is giving me the error "Failed to move the file to processed folder" in the spool of SM37 and i can see the file still laying in data folder.
I tried to check other programs which acesses the same folder as the above program, whether they are able to move. They are able to move the file to processed fodler successfully both in foreground and background mode.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Deepa

Hi Sanu,
Please use teh following code to move the file from source to target folder.
This is a code showing how to create and use COPY command of UNIX in ABAP
PARAMETERS:
Input file path
p_input TYPE localfile,
Processed file path
p_proc TYPE localfile.
Declare the Types to file data
TYPES: BEGIN OF L_X_OUTPUT,
sys(200), " Please note, there are asterisk before and after sys (i.e.sys)
END OF L_X_OUTPUT.
* Internal table to store file data
DATA l_i_output TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF l_x_output WITH HEADER LINE.
* Variable for the UNIX command
DATA: l_v_unix_comm(255) TYPE c.
Copy command of UNIX
CONCATENATE 'mv' p_input p_proc
INTO l_v_unix_comm SEPARATED BY space.
For example the Copy command is stored as below
cp u2018/data/interfaces/input/input_fileu2019 u2018/data/interfaces/processed/processed_fileu2019
Examples of UNIX Command *u2022 mv filename1 filename2 --- moves a file (i.e. gives it a different name, or moves it into a *different directory (see below) *u2022 cp filename1 filename2 --- copies a file
Execute the UNIX Copy command.
This command will copy the file from input file path to the processed file path
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD l_v_unix_comm
ID 'TAB'
FIELD l_i_output-sys.
IF sy-subrc eq 0.
write: 'File is copied successfully using UNIX command in ABAP'.
ENDIF.

I am having a problem moving files from a iMac in location mac in another location. I have tried using Dropbox and the Public folder in the i disc. When I drag the files into dropbox they become alias' and I can't open them at the other end beca

I am having a problem moving files from an imac in one location to an imac inanother location. I have tried using Dropbox which is installed in both locations but when i drad a file ino yhe app it becomes an alias. When I get to the other location it says I can't open the file because the " original application that created it is not present". This is despite the fact that the app that created both files is installed in both computers. If I use the Public folder in the idisc, when I get to the other location the file isn't there. Am I forgetting to turn something on or off? Should I manually sync the Public folder and if so how? Thanks

Moving files from PowerMac G3 to MacBook Pro

I have a new MacBook Pro and am moving files from all my old macs onto it. I found an old beige desktop PowerPC hard drive but don't have a monitor for it. Also, I have ancient 3.5 floppies that I need to read and the old beige computer has a slot for that. So, the question is: How do I get my files off the beige G3 and onto the new computer when the beige PowerPC has NO firewire?

One solution is to find any old crappy monitor and hook it up to the beige G3. Then you can configure it to use Ethernet, and set up a small Ethernet network with your new MacBook Pro. It is a little complicated, but not difficult.

Computer freezes when moving files from USB, or to another partitioned HD

Hello, i've been moving files from two USB's to my Macintosh HD, and when I do that, the computer kinda freezes up, i can move the cursor, but not kinda click anywhere, and then a minute after or something, it gets normal again, but the transfer is going horribly slow. this happens when i move from Macintosh HD, to Macintosh HD 2 (a partitioned one). the files are 2 gb each USB. which means im transferring 4 gb at the time.

I have 6 folders on my hard drive. These folders were created by downloading a bunch of rar files, then extracting them each to their own folder. I have not touched the permissions, so they should be the default of me having read/write and everyone else having read (correct me if i'm wrong).
Using two Finder windows, I drag and drop the six folders from one hard drive to another, and hold down the Apple key so that it moves instead of copies. I let go and it starts copying the files (since there is no "move", but rather a "copy and then delete").
I would recommend you don't use this method to move a lot of files between drives. it's much safer first to copy and if the copy is successful to delete the original afterward. there was a data loss bug in OS X a while back that wold sometimes lead to total loss on both the source and the target when doing this.
this bug is supposed to be long fixed but still...
How is the hard drive you are moving the files to formatted? what yo describe sometimes happens when moving a lot of stuff to or from FAT formatted drives. also, repair both drives in disk utility. repair disk, not permissions.

Moving files from iMac to iPad

I had a problem with my iMac this morning. I couldn't send an E-mail message, so I thought I'd try to use my iPad for the first time. I wanted to move the message I had typed in my iMac's E-mail program to my iPad's E-mail program. I called Apple Care Protection, or whatever it's called. Anyway, I was told that there was no way to do what I had wanted. I would simply have to retype the message in my iPad E-mail program.
The technicians/advisors at Apple Care Protection are about as good as you can find, and the one I talked to was probably right. However, I just have to check on his advice one more time. Is it correct? Is it true that there is no way to transfer files from my iMac to my iPad? I find that amazing.
I have the latest operating systems for both my iMac and my iPad installed; however, I am using a late 2009 model iMac. Could that be the problem?

Thanks for your very informative response. It's a model for the way questions should be answered. It was especially interesting to see your comment about my 2009 model and Handoff. The screen had said that, and the technician I talked to said that the screen was right--OF COURSE--but I still was gob-smacked, as the Brits say. I had thought that the operating system was the only important thing, and that since I had the latest operating systems for both my Mac and my iPad, that I could do anything that Macs and iPads can do. Well, live and learn, and one more thing to learn will be to use the cloud apps that you mention. Finally, it's interesting that you mention Evernote. I know that everyone says that it's the greatest, but I couldn't do anything with it and finally uninstalled it from my computer. I found that Apple's Notes did everything I wanted in fine style. No complaint there.
Oh, I finally understand why you mentioned Dropbox. Sure--I think. I have DropBox. I guess you are saying that I can export a file to DropBox from my iMac and then send it from DropBox to my iPad. Well, maybe, but right now I'm having trouble sending files from DropBox to anywhere, and I have given up on trying to get help from DropBox. Thanks again.

Trouble moving music from my iTunes to my iPhone.

I downloaded the new iTunes software very recently, but now I seem to be having trouble moving music from my iTunes library onto my iPhone. If I click and drag the track to the iPhone icon, the icon is completely unresponsive. If I right-click the track and hit "Add to iPhone" nothing happens either. My iPhone is synced to my laptop and 'Trusts' it, so I don't understand why I'm not getting any response from my phone when I try to move music into it.
This is especially frustrating as when I tried to download the new software for my iPhone it suddenly and inexplicably went into recovery mode, and though I recovered the phone's data from backup all my music has been deleted from my phone and I can't get it back.
Am I doing something wrong that I'm unaware of, or is there a problem with the software? Any feedback would be hugely appreciated.
