Where are files when they are being downloaded

When I download tv shows, there always seems to be some interruption that stops the dwownload, and causes it to start over. Does the data that I got already just go away? Where are the incomplete files stored during the download, and are they all still on my computer somewhere?

    Mac desktop. 10.6.8. Text edit. Not locked. Read and write, not read only. Documents are locking when they are moved from desktop to another folder or saved directly into that folder on the server. Not happening with anyone else but me and the boss's computer so has to be in the properties for my text edit software. Techies can't figure it out after trying for two weeks. Boss can do a cut and paste and put into a new document, but that's starting to become a problem.

  • TS1630 My iPhone 4 says the headphones are in when they are not. I am not getting any sound from the speaker. Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Any ideas anyone?

    My iPhone 4S  has no sound through the speaker generally, although the speakerphone does work.  It is indicating that headphones are in, when they are not.  Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Resetting the phone has not resolved the problem.  any ideas what could be wrong?

    This just happened to my brand new iPhone5. I tried turning all the way off and then on AND plugging and unplugging. Only to discover that simply connecting to the charger worked!!!
    Very frustrating though!!

  • Ipad saying earphones are in when they are not

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

  • Why does my Ipad say headphones are connected when they are not?

    I do not have sound on my iPad1. When I try to turn up the volum it indicates headphones are connected, but they are not. When I do use headphones they do work. I have rebooted the iPad, reset and restored the iPad and the issue still exists. Is this a straight hardware problem?

    iPad has a mechanical switch inside the jack so it knows when the headphones are plugged in.
    It may be stuck.
    Inspect it to see if something is in there, such as toe jam.
    Blow the port out with compressed air.
    Try inserting and removing a headphone plug several times.

    IMO i wouldnt think so, but there are hidden cache that are around, they only way to really make shure the are deleted, is by running a disk cleanup within the utlities

  • Trying to combine folders within LR4 from two separate drives without creating duplicates--sometimes it won't let me transfer to destination folder because it says files are there when they are not; other times, allows duplicates to transfer

    Trying to consolidate 261K+ of images within LR4 between two drives.  Someone who was "helping" me with my Library in LR4 for some reason took some but not all of the file folders from my main backup drive (M) and duplicated them onto a partitioned hard drive (E) directly on the computer.  The duplication is huge, so I am trying to condense them all back onto the original backup drive M, particularly since I believe there are also folders on the partitioned backup drive E that do not appear on the main one M, and there are many more file folders on M that are not on E, so that is the destination drive.
    CONSOLIDATION:  When I try to drag either the file folders or the individual files from the duplicate drive E to the original drive M to combine the two drives since the folders in many cases for some reason are not identical, sometimes LR4 says the files already exist when they clearly don't. Other times it allows me to drag and drop all files, even if the exact duplicates are already on the destination drive, thereby doubling the number of files per image and creating more duplicates.  Right now I am opening each file folder on the duplicate drive E, looking at what extensions and file names are there, scrolling to the original drive, making sure they appear to be identical, then going back to the duplicate drive E, deleting the images in the folder, removing the folder, and moving to the next folder on the duplicate drive E.  *There has got to be a simpler way.*
    CONSOLIDATION APPROACH: I did start to create file folders names A, B, C and group file folders under them to reduce clutter, since those header folders can be closed down when not in use, but now I am wondering if I should have done that alphabetization to the main backup drive rather than to the partitioned backup drive.
    My goal is to consolidate the two drives down to one, delete as many images along the way that I know I will never miss, then backup the catalog and export it to an external drive and then copy that to yet another drive for offside storage.  Does this sound like the proper plan?  Last time it took almost 24 hours and over a terabyte to export the catalog.
    DUPLICATION:  I also have many file folders that have the exact same image in them.  One portfolio image may actually be in eight different folders, with the exact file, file name, file size, and date, even though I always have checked "no duplicates on import,"  How can this be? What is the best way to sort through duplicates?  Why are the files in some of the duplicate folders not in numerical order? If I do a search and call up a file # and find 15 duplicates, the only way I can find where those duplicates reside is to take each duplicate, right click to Locate Folder in Library, then once I find it, I have to go back to All Photographs>Text.search for file #, go to the second duplicate, right click to Locate Folder in Library, then once I find it, I have to do it all again.  Is there a simpler way to see all the occurrences in their respective folder locations at once?
    SEARCH BY FILE FOLDER NAME ONLY: I also find I can't search for a file using a folder name (for example, "John_Doe").  I can only search by file #, keywords, or camera/lens/date, etc.  Why will it not work to use All Photographs>Text>search for Doe? In other words, if I didn't keyword the individual files as John Doe, I can't search for them by that moniker.
    BACKUP:  It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR.  Really?!
    FOLDER LIST PRINTOUT: Is there a way to print out the Folder list (other than a screen shot)? I have so many file folders on each drive since I sort not by Year/Month/Date but by subject. It makes trying to compare duplicate folders quite unwieldy. 
    SLOW RESPONSE:  And finally, as though that weren't enough, why does LR4 continually blink to a white screen after each keystroke?  Takes forever just to be able to click through images, view info after hovering, etc. All other programs are closed down and the operating system shows very little memory being used.

    A brief and probably non-helpful answer: I know of no way to eliminate your large amount of duplicates other than by repetitive, tedious manual effort.
    *There has got to be a simpler way.*
    I hope you're right, but I don't think there is a simpler way.
    BACKUP:  It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR.  Really?!
    Yes, really

  • Why can't itunes locate my music files when they are there?

    I think that this happened when I checked off both "keep iTunes media folder organized" and "copy files to iTunes Media Folder when adding to library."I had all of my files located at C:\Users\Beata\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media   and then I noticed that itunes made folders for all of of my music files because I have checked off the keep iTunes media folder organized. Ever since then, itunes can't find all of my files but only some of it and I don't want to go one by one to locate all of the songs. All of my songs are located in the same location which is C:\Users\Beata\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music  I changed it to this location because all of my song files are located there and the place where it was located before, I didn't find the song files on there. I also noticed that itunes would oragize and create folders for my songs in the my music library and I thought that was the reason why itunes couldn't find the files because they were in the wrong location so I moved all of those folders to C:\Users\Beata\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music  So, is it because all of my files are in folders since itunes organized them? All of my files are in album, artist, and song title folders. Where should all of these folders be located at? Also, iTunes creates multiple folders that have the same name and should I just leave the folders be or organize them myself because I have folders that have the same exact name as in the artist and title but it has different song files in the folders. Should I combine the files into the same folder that have the same artist or should I just leave it that way?  Please ,I really need help as I have tried almost everything.

  • How to tell if multiple files are selected when they are opened in windows

    Hello, can someone help me, my question is how to tell if multiple file selections were made when they were opened (right-click->open). Through modifying the registry I already have my Java program start up when a file with specific extension is double-clicked.
    The problem is when multiple files are opened at the same time, an instance of java program is created and run for each of the selected files. Ideally I would like it so that only one instance of java program is run, regardless of the number of selections.
    When you try it with Microsoft media player or winamp for example, it seems that only one process is created and run (I don't see many processes spawning when I watch it using task manager). Maybe this is more of Windows issue rather than Java programming issue. Any help is appreciated.

    If anybody wants to know, this can be solved by either 1) using DDE 2) using DropTarget (from Windows) 3) make a light-weight EXE dispatcher (eg. in C), and use file to have IPC between the dispatcher (which gets the filepath for each of the selections) and the java program. There can be other methods of course. Using the second option is the simplest but it requires WinXP and higher. I implemented it using option 3.. the downside of this is there's a warning message pop up when trying to open many (>20?) files at the same time by Windows. However, option 1 'seems' to have the same limitation. Having a java program created each time for each of the selections seems to be too slow, for viable option.

  • Finder de-selects files when they are locked/unlocked

    I have several encrypted disk images that I use to store various personal info on:  financial data, logins/passwords, health info, etc.
    Whenever I update the content on any of them I make a copy of the .dmg file, then rename the copy with the date and time in the filename.  For example, if I have a test.dmg file, when I update content in it, I would make a copy and rename the copy like test_201401051459.dmg.  That way I have a series of backups of each iteration of the encrypted disk image file.  (I've had encrypted disk image files get corrupted in the past, so this is a simple way to make sure I can open at least one of the previous backup files if necessary.)  I also "lock" each dated copy of the .dmg file to prevent accidental deletion.
    At the end of each month I move all of the dated backup .dmg files to an "_Old Data" folder.  In order to do that, I select all the .dmg files I want to move into the subfolder, then right-click (or ctrl-click) on them and -- continuing to hold the Ctrl key down -- I click on "Get Summary Info" to open a single "Get Info" dialog for all of the files so I can unlock them before I move them (if I don't unlock them, then Finder will make copies instead of moving them).  As soon as I de-select/uncheck the "Locked" option in the "Multiple Item Info" dialog, Finder de-selects all of the selected files in the Finder window and also narrows the column they're displayed in (I always use Column View in Finder windows).  This forces me to manually re-widen the column so I can see the entire file names, and manually re-select all of the files so I can move them into the sub-folder.
    This is changed behavior from Snow Leopard (from which I upgraded to Yosemite).  In Snow Leopard, Finder left things alone.  It didn't decide all on its own that files should be de-selected and that column widths should be narrowed to what it thinks is right.  This turns a relatively simple operation into an unnecessarily-more-complex operation.  Pure PITA.

  • ITunes thinks tracks are empty when they are not

    Hi--
    My problem is that when I try to burn imported (original) tracks to disk from iTunes, iTunes says "tracks are empty." iTunes recognizes and plays the tracks; can import them; but seems unable to recognize them when asked to burn to CD.
    Any advice??
    thanks--

    Yes, they are in a playlist--and they play back. I think the files were SDII or WAVs originally off Pro Tools.
    Thanks!

  • Ichat buddies are grey when they are online

    I have set up my daughter with a minimac. they have a netgear WPN824 wireless router connected to a comcast modem. We have set up and tested Skype video chats and they work fine. But iChat (version 5) shows all buddies offline and grey even when we know one is online (and that person reports that we show 'offline' and grey on her buddy list). Our status is online and available. We are running SL 10.6.1. Normal internet connectivity is fine.
    Could this be a port setting issue for iChat?

    AS indicated in my first post in this thread you and she have to check the Security setting in iChat first.
    They are found in iChat menu > Preferences > Accounts and it is a tab on the right.
    There are several Allow and Block settings.
    If the name you have for her is not blocked and the names she has for the rest of you are not Blocked then you have to check if the Names are "right".
    In iChat 4 (Leopard) you can have one of several type of names that can Log in to the AIM servers. These can be an AIM one or one of the Apple ones.
    You have to choose how you enter the names to make it work.
    Your Buddies also have to be entered as the Correct "type" as you add them. You have to select either AIM, @Mac.com or MobileMe for @me.com names. Getting this bit "wrong" will make the Buddy appear as if they are Off Line (Greyed out).
    In Snow Leopard/iChat 5 they have made in simpler in adding Buddies by just entering the whole Buddy name even if it as an @mac or @me.com suffix.
    So check the name is spelt correctly.
    If Leopard that the Screen Name is entered as the Correct type.
    (it can be complicated if she has Allow Buddy List Only and she has your names "wrong")
    Most likely though she has Internet Sharing ON or has the Firewall set to Allow Essentials Only in Leopard which will block iChat (Use Allow All or Allow Specifics)

  • Changed over to email, when adding contacts to email, says they are invalid when they are not.

    Since changing over to the new improved email system, so I could be more organized, when I try and put my contacts in, it says they are invalid and doesn't recognize them.  When in fact there are no spelling errors, the emails are typed in correctly, with correct characters.  I am so frustrated.  Any answers? 

    There are no known issues with the creating of contacts. We would like to see the methodology of input  as well as the content you are putting in. I have sent you a private message so we can work further on this

    okay, let's check to see if this is a problem in your case:

  • IPhoto warning me that pics I'm importing are duplicates when they are not

    I just got a new mac and am attempting to import my pictures from an external hard drive.   IPhoto tells me that pics are duplicate and shows me two thumbnails that are not duplicate pictures.  To be honest I do not know if the filenames are duplicates or if it matters (they are stored in different folders on the hard drive).  How do I get iPhoto to just import these pictures and also keep the ones that it thinks are duplicates?
