Trying to open/share a .band file from another computer?

Hi there,
My friend is trying to send me a .band file with all the processing they've done and wanted me to touch it up a bit. For some reason we can't figure out how to send it properly so that I can open it on my end. It sends as a 1kb file that won't open. Is there a way to do this?
I appreciate any help!

a .band file is actually a folder (to any other OS besides Mac OS X), with which typical email systems can't deal .
have your friend ctrl-click the project file and choose the "Compress..." option. send the resulting .zip file

How do I import a iWeb file from another computer to my computer? I have Lion and iweb version 3.0.4

My friend has been working on a website on her iWeb on her computer and I would like to take over on mine. Does anyone know how to do this?
thanks!

Once you copy the Domain.sties file from your friend's computer to yours consider the following:
In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Trouble loading file from another computer! Help!

Alright, I'm currently making a Flash animation for a final
exam project in school. I started it yesterday and today I thought
it would be a good idea to work on it at home, so I transfered a
copy of the Flash document to my Kingston USB mass storage stick.
When I tried to load the said document onto the computer I'm
currently on a message box popped up saying "Unexpected file
format" and fails to load the file. The same thing happens when I
try to load another Flash document that I had also stored on the
mass storage stick.
I'm using Flash MX Professional 2004, and I'm fairly certain
that the Flash program at my school is either Flash MX Professional
2004 or Flash MX 2004.
Can anyone help me?

My imported backup html files from another computer do not show up after import

I am currently transferring files from my macbook pro to a pc netbook. I already exported my firefox bookmarks via an external drive and accessed the html file on my new netbook. After importing the html on firefox on my new netbook, the bookmarks do not show up on my bookmark list.

Please see this article on how to move your bookmarks and settings from one computer to another: [[Moving your Firefox bookmarks and settings]].
Caution: Restoring bookmarks from a backup will overwrite your current set of bookmarks with the ones in the backup file.

"Error 1 when trying to open and read datalog file from several subVi's

So, I've been coding up this model based controller and have hit a snag:
The program starts and opens a datalog file and passes the refnum to two loops.
At a regular time interval (every 2 minutes), one loop (that's iterating once per second) writes the current information to a datalog file.
Meanwhile, another loop (that's iterating continuously) checks to see if the file is big enough to support training of the model, if it is, then the training process begins. Once this happens a period of recent information is read from the file. Initially, this read would fail and return 0 data. However, this problem was fixed by passing in the data file path rather then the refnum and having the vi open,
read, and close the data file. With the path, the vi was able to read all the data. However, still in the same loop, another vi downstream tries to read the file and returns error code 1, and no data is read. I tried passing that vi the path and seeing if it made any difference to open, read and close the file. But even then the read failed (with error code 1).
I don't understand why it can read in one vi and not the other!
Does anyone know what is going on here? It seems that semaphores would probably solve the problem, but would prefer a simpler solution. Thank you very much.

Try passing the data to the continuous loop through a LV2-style global. That way you are only access the file in one place. But then that begs the question, if the data is passed internally, do you really need the file at all?

How to copy files from another computer

Hi,
My daughter is logged into my server from her home. We ar trying to copy files using select all copy/ paste to my folder on the server.
We have copied about 82 images all jpegs. but thy all say 0 bytes.
What did we do wrong?
Thanks
Martin

Try to drag and drop the images to the server share.
While your description of your actions do not imply an error of execution, it might be worth trying an alternate method.
Also, what is your daughter's computer? Is it Windows? Since this is the OS X Server discussion thread, I will assume the server is a mini running Mountain Lion.

Cannot delete .band files from desktop

I was working on a file in GarageBand, I saved the .band file on my desktop, but after I quit GarageBand without saving the work, the .band file went a little weird. I tried dragging it to the trash and cmd-delete it but the message came up saying "The item “Recording Final.band” can’t be moved to the Trash because it can’t be deleted." Later I launched GarageBand again, and when I tried to drag the weird .band file from desktop to the GarageBand icon on my dock, the dock appears to crash, my wallpaper went gray for a second and then the dock came back up. Also when I select the file and hit space bar to do a quick look it shows up saying No Items Selected. I like to keep my desktop tidy don't want these files here blocking the way. Anyone knows the solution to the problem?

The first thing I'd do is just restart your system. You might find the file has disappeared. If not, try deleting it again. If you get the same error msg, do as follows.
Enable 'show path bar' in Finder > View. Highlight the problem file and make a note of the path.
Open Terminal and use the
rm <path to file>
command to remove it (remove the angled brackets). If you want to be on the safe side, use the command
cd <parent directory of file>
to move into the correct folder first.
Example
Suppose the path is:
Lion > Music > Garageband > problemfile.band
In Terminal, you'd type
cd ~/Music/Garageband
Then type
ls -l
Assuming you see 'problemfile.band' in the list, type
rm problemfile.band
If you get an error, try
sudo rm problemfile.band
and enter your admin password (which will be invisible when you type it).
If you still get an error msg, post back here, stating the error msg.

How do I stop my Macbook Air from transferring your information from another computer?

Just purchased my Macbook Air. When I started it up, it asked if I wanted to tranfer information from my other computer. the first thing it started to download was the music and it suddenly froze when it had a 1hr and 46 mins left and now I can escape out of it. It is the only thing that is on my screen. I ended the transfer on my PC but it wont clear out on my Macbook Air. Is there a way to restart the computer so it will retry the tranfer without the music?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Hold the Power button until the Mac turns off, and turn it on again.
Instead of transferring your files from another computer through the network, copy your data from your old PC or Mac to an external drive, connect the external drive to your MacBook Air and transfer your files

Is this what you downloaded: iTunes 10.7?
When the update fails what if any error report do you get, specifically? Please do this before trying again:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard 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 Utilities menu. 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.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro 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.

Export .band file from Windows PC to an iOS device?

I want to send a .band file from My PC to an iPad with Garageband.
iTunes wont let me drag and drop the file into my iPad.
.band files aren't recognized by my PC.
I can't find this question/solution anywhere on the interwebs.
Background:
My friend, living 100s of miles away, has a Mac with Garageband. He is sending me a project and I want to recut the song, and I thought I could do that on my iPad. I just bought Garageband a few days ago for iOS (so I'm alittle new to GB). I don't have a mac; just an old PC.
Would these work:
1.Can I import each of the seperate tracks from iTunes into 1 project on the iPad? I don't know how.
2.Should my friend email it,uncompressed, to me and open it from my iPad? Would that work, regardless of how big the file is? (it wont work with dropbox)
3. Could I do this on a Mac that doesn't have Garageband? Will I need iTunes on that computer?
4. Could I download something on my PC to make it possible to drag the file into iTunes?

GarageBand on a Mac and GarageBand on an iPad are very different applications. You can share GarageBand projects created on an iPad to your Mac by syncing with iTunes or sharing it to iCloud, but GarageBand projects created on a Mac are not necessarily compatible with GarageBand on iPad. There is no official way to upload these projects to an iPad. If you create a project on your iPad, your friend could finish it on his mac, if you use the same iCloud account, but the other way around is not supported. See this discussion on GarageBand and PC:
Re: Can I drag a .band file created on my iPad BACK into GarageBand to edit again?

HT202879 I am stumped - trying to open a recent Pages file but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. I recently updated Pages but it is not consistent.

I am stumped - I am trying to open a recent Pages file (created with a newer software that I thought was correctly installed recently) but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. Pages 09 version 4.3 shows as my current version.

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
Note: Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
