Trying to eliminate period underscore on file names now being shown on all my files

My MAC just started showing a period and an underscore on all files.. (._) how do I get rid of it? 

Hi
I have managed to find a previous library on another external hard drive and managed to add folders to i tunes.  It hasn't put all of the songs I had on previously on there, but it is all of the ones that I no longer have the cds for now.  All of the other songs I have got cd's for so can just redo them. 
I am assuming now that all the songs are back in i tunes this will be my most up to date i tunes library now.   Once I have got my additional songs on would you recommend backing up the new library to an external drive again. 
Thanks for your help, I have never had this problem before, it seems that whenever there is a new version of i tunes more problems arise!

    I have an iBook on itunes and I am trying to upload a new version of the book. I am following the workflow through iBooks Author and when I fell out all of the infromation for the package on iTunes producer i then hit the deliver button and I get the following error message:
    The package name The Gallbladder-4.itmsp contains an invalid character(s).  The valid characters are: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, dash, period, underscore, but the name cannot start with a dash, period, or underscore.
    As far as I can tell the file that is being referenced does not meet the criteria axpressed in the erro message and in fact that file has been created by iBooks Author so one would think there shouldnt be an error.
    I also get the following to error messages:

  • Bidders names are being shown to puchaser before the submission dead line date

    Dear Experts,
    We are using SRM 7.0 for e-procurement.
    as per the standards, the bidders names who got registered/participated in this tender should not be visible to purchaser before the deadline date. But in our case, it is being visible to purchasers at 3 different places even before the submission deadline.
    The places are
    - Queries and replies button from purchaser
    - Tracking tab from purchaser side
    - in C-folders where the bidder uploads the document.
    Any suggestions on how to avoid this?
    Thanks & best regards,
    Ramana

    Hello Ramana,
    do you use PPS?
    If yes, what about Two-Envelope RFx Response using the business function SAP SRM
    Procurement for Public Sector Functions (/SAPPSSRM/SRM_PPS)?
    As of SAP enhancement package 1 for SAP Supplier Relationship Management 7.0 (SAP SRM 7.0), you can also use a two-envelope RFx response procedure (business function SRM_SOURCING_1).
    If it does not match your requirement, you can use WD_BADI_DOMODIFYVIEW BAdI from WD_BADI enhancement spot in order to hide concerned fields.
    Regards.
    Laurent.

    Hello Esther,
    the problem seems to be that the temp folder of the target Integration Builder system can't be found:
    'The system cannot find the path specified
    at [..] FileAccess.getTempDirectory([..])'.
    You'll experience the same problem if you try a file based import or export within the Integration Builder directly.
    I would recommend to continue the search there. You could check if the environment variables (for Windows: TEMP and TMP) of the OS of the system with the target Integration Builder to an existing path. Check also if the WebAs can access this path.
    Good luck
    Frank

  • I'm trying to invoke EXCEL or POWERPOINT file into the browser IE 6.0.  The

    I'm running TOMCAT locally on my PC (running Windows NT).
    I'm trying to invoke EXCEL or POWERPOINT file into the browser IE 6.0.
    The output is coming out all scrambled (almost like ASCII code or something),
    where it seems like the applications are not firing up.
    However, an MSWord file shows up fine. So I go to the WEB.XML file in the TOMCAT\CONF
    folder and notice that a MIME type has been set up for MSWord and not the other two.
    I set one up for EXCEL and POWERPOINT but the XLS or PPT files still don't work.
    So, just for kicks, I comment out the MSWord MIME definition but the MSWord file still worked!!!
    I can't figure out what's going on here.
    I'm stopping and starting the TOMCAT service each time I make changes to the WEB.XML file,
    but it seems like none of the changes are taking affect.
    I install all the viewers for MS-Word, ppt, and excell.
    But in Netscape it works fine.

    To support various file formats in IE browser while using window.open like .doc, .docx, .ppt, .pptx, .xls, xlsx etc.,
    The following code can also be used to force any format to get launch outside IE
    For these first configure a filter in web.xml and then include the filter class in given path

  • I have a 2009 MB Pro. I have been trying to do some cleaning of files and discovered that in Finder, All Images, I am experiencing a frustrating problem. I spent a few hours trashing over 4K images and within a few hours, I had as many more. Help!

    I have a 2009 MB Pro. I have been trying to do some cleaning of files and discovered that in Finder, All Images, I am experiencing a frustrating problem. I spent a few hours trashing over 4K images and within a few hours, I had as many more.  I did a couple of thousand trashed images and half hour later, more arrived. There are a lot of images that seem off the internet, including gif.s, png.s. Help!

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • Error when trying to run the rcu.bat file as part of OBIEE 11g installation

    when trying to run the rcu.bat file as part of OBIEE 11g installation on windows 7 64 bit I am getting the following error
    "windows cannot find C:\Users\manoj\Desktop\Oracle.Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again".
    Please help me how to overcome this error, I am not able to understand why it is looking for C:\Users\manoj\Desktop\Oracle.
    Thanks
    Manoj

    after setting the ORACLE_HOME and Path environment variables also....I am still getting the same error...so is it like RCU can be run only on windows 7 32-bit machines and it does not work on 64-bit machines? and also it seems like the previous versions of OBIEE 10.1.3.X does not support windows 7 64-bit machines...
    please help me finding a solution to this error....
    and what are all the versions of OBIEE can be installed on windows 7 64-bit machines?
    can't we install OBIEE 11g on windows 7 64-bit machines without including RCU?
    thanks

    I’m trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message “The operation could not be completed because the item “bands” is in use. I’d like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

    Sorry, I am very confused. I asked the following question....
    Is this the only backup file on your Mac, or do you have other backup files and data on the Time Capsule disk?
    The answer that you gave was....
    This is the only one
    Now you are saying that....
    But I have lots of other files on Time Capsule! The back up file is only one of them.
    Can you clarify, please?

    I am trying to download a variety of files and when it is finished, the Mac freezes up and the task bar continue to blink on and off.
    I have to go into Firefox and actually quit the application to continue. Any help is very much appreciated.

    are you backing up files, or doing a Time machine backup, either way, the Time machine will STOP when finished and show "last backup at XXXXXX"  meaning its done...... OR if when transferring files, it will show a progress bar on your desktop and vanish when files are copied.
    Open up the Hitachi drive (your G drive is made by Hitachi, and the best made by the way).....and see if the files are there.
    a MORE VISUAL way is to open the hard drive file, and drag and drop files INTO the Gdrive and you can see them visually be copied there as you do it.
    To see your HD on your desktop GOTO  FINDER......PREFERENCES....then GENERAL TAB.........check the box marked HARD DRIVES.........then your Gdrive will appear on your desktop........open it from there,  and DRAG and drop files from anywhere INTO the Gdrive....... easy visual way to see the files being copied into the Gdrive.
