Why can't I drag one folder into anoth

If I create a new folder within Zen Media Explorer, why can I not drag another folder into it's
This is how I arrange my MP3 albums on my PC ARTIST NAME folder--->ALBUM NAME folder--->MP3 TRACKS
but when I use media explorer to transfer just one album from a multi album folder it transfers it without creating a folder of the artist name therefore I would have to do it manually, but thats isn't possible either.
Now although this is fine on the player (if ID3 tags are completed) when I come back to media player I don't have the artist name info.
Am I doing something wrong or has anybody else found this to be a problem
Thanks

Thanks Jerry. I just found this out by reading the "What has been lost in Numbers 3.0 upgrade" post by virtue of posing my question here ... In desperation, I downloaded FilemakerPro 13 trial and I am getting quite excited by this although I have commented to Apple that they may want to think about using the now redundant iWeb developers to build a new iWeb with DB capabilities integrating the new Numbers with all it's 09 features restored for ease of use. Will they listen? I doubt it. Ha. Cheers

    Drag and drop doesn't work - instead do a File -> import -> movies and select from there.

  • Why can't I move a take into another folder?

    I've been beating my head against this for days. Seems like I'm missing something really simple. I have two tracks, each of which have folders with a number of takes. I just want to drag a take from one folder into another.
    I get that you have to hit that little button in the top right corner of the folder to allow you to grab something. But when I grab a take, it only allows me to drag it around within that folder, and not into another folder. I've searched high and low, what am I missing here? Or is this a bug?

    Try unpacking the folder (the region menu).

  • Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location.

    Images I move from one folder into another are disappearing, at first it was occurring immediately and only if I did not copy and paste the images. Today however I found out that images I had been using for days just up and vanished from their new location. A few of these images had copies in another folder that remained and the ones I couldn't find may or may not have ever had copies. I had backed up my system with time machine recently as well, so I went into the backup to retreive the lost images. When I searched and found the backup copies I got the error "the file alias cannot be opened because the original cannot be located". The crazy thing is that the images that remained on my computer did not give me the same error and opened like they should.
    In short images that I am creating, saving, and using are disapearing so epically that even time machine versions are affected when retrieval is attempted. Any suggestions as to what I could be doing wrong without realizing it? Or perhaps other people have had similar bugs that are software related and have a solution?

    Hi Kevin,
    I understand what you tried to do but it doesn't work that way. Swapping drive names will just mess things up.
    You should be able to reconnect the files though: in the Locate Referenced Files dialog make sure you click the Show Reconnect Options button — this will give you access to all the connected drives. Locate one of the files and hit Reconnect All. Should do the trick.
    Best

  • Why can't I drag a clip into the timeline?

    I just loaded PP CD5 onto my Win 7 laptop.  I can import movie clips into my project, but I can't drag any of those clips into the timeline.  When I try to drag them, I get a hand with a "do not enter" symbol.  No error messages of any kind.
    I vaguely remember having this same issue when I loaded PP CS5 on my Win 7 desktop several months ago, and I thought I found something on the forums that told me how to fix it, but I can't find it now.  Perhaps a change in the preferences?
    Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Did you actually create a sequence? If not, go to File > New > Sequence, or drag one of your clips to the New Item icon at the bottom of the Project Panel. You can also click that to get the New Sequence option.

  • TA22875 Why can't I drag MP4 Files into Imovie?

    I'm trying to frag MP4 files into I Movie and when I release the mouse it just returns them to where they came.

    OK
    We here are not Apple or employed by them - the thoughts and wisdom of Apple is very occult to many of us !
    We are as You - Users and trying to be of help for other users !
    The thing is - I don't know about Codecs, and please take this the right way when I say - I'm not interested in Codecs.
    I just want to drag my movie files taken in whatever format I take them in and drag them into Imovie to work on them.
    mp4 is a fairly common format?
    then I have very little possibility to be of help - as I only can guide You a bit of the way to understand and work around this Problem - I never denied it to be.
    But it seems that every Camera company makes there own solutions and to make Video editing programs or DVD authoring ones that can use every strange Video Codec availably - is impossibly - Not even FinalCut or Avid or Adobe Premiere can do this.
    .mp4 - is no more Video Codec as any folder or hard disk - and tell that my material is on a hard disk, doesn't help us in understanding where it goes wrong.
    So if You want to get this to work - then You need to set of a minimum of interest in howto get it right.
    To find out the Codec
    • Open the file with QuickTime-Player (as it can open many many more Codecs than iMovie can use)
    • here open Inspector [cmd+I] and read
    Video Format (Codec) : nnnnnnnnnnnnn
    Frames per second : YY.yy fps
    What does they say ?
    If You feel offended and don't want - There is no solution as I know of.
    AND - I have no intention to offend at any cost - but need info (and so does the others here too) to be able to reach out a hand

  • Why do my photos on my computer take up 5.5 GB but syncing them to my iPod Touch they take up around 15 GB, and why can I only select one folder to sync, and not multiple folders?

    I have wiped the iPod a few times and tried from different computers. All the small things get more frustrating every day with apple.

    I'm a little confused how that would help the problem I have...care to explain it a little differently?
    The Camera roll, on the iPod Touch, is where photos taken by the iPod (if it has a camera), screenshots and downloaded pictures are stored. Since they have "originated" on the iPod they are not on your computer - yet. So the total size of the photos on your iPod (in your case 15GB) will be made up of photos you have synced from your computer (5.5GB) and the Camera Roll of 9.5GB.
    In the Photos App, notice the line named Photo Library (I mentioned it in my previous post). That folder contains all the photos synced form your computer. If there is an extra line above the Photo Library, named Saved Photos, this is the Camera Roll and it is where those screenshots, downloaded pictures and camera shots are listed.
    Cruicially, if you ever need to Restore your iPod, the Camera Roll (Saved Photos) will be deleted, so you may wish to save the contents of the Camera Roll onto your computer. My method is; when the iPod is connected to iTunes, look in My Computer for an extra drive (it should show an iPod icon) and copy them from there to a folder on my computer. If I want them on your iPod, I paste them into one of the folders I intend to use for Syncing with the iPod. Once they have been successfully saved, I can go back the My Computer/the iPod and delete them from the Camera Roll.

  • Can you move Photos from one folder into another?

    Doesnt seem like you can.
    Can you?
    And can you create new folders on the Finder level within LR like you can in Bridge?

    You can when inside a folder. Drag from the image not the grey border. If in doubt grab the center if the image.

  • I want to create a "batch file" that will copy files from one folder into another, overwriting what is currently in there.

    I've got a game that has a folder with Saved Games (Okay, it's Minecraft). I don't always have my external drives because I take my Mac Mini from my house to my friend's house and of course back after we finish playing.
    There are times where I want a back up so that if something happens we can restore it as easily as possible.
    What I've been doing is copying the particular saved game and pasting it to my desktop, replacing the new backup over the old backup. I'd like to be able to create a "batch file" so that I can just double-click on it and it will copy and paste overwriting the old version.
    Since this is being automated I've been thinking. It would be nice to have 10 backups which I would like to have numbered from 1 to 10 (and not 0 to 9).
    I'd like the batch file to delete backup 10 then rename backup 9 to 10 and 8 to 9 and so forth until backup 1 becomes backup 2 and then my live copy then gets copied to my desktop. I guess that one really doesn't need a number after it. It can have the exact same name.
    Don't worry about automating the restore. I just want the backup part of it automated. I'm not a UNIX guy but I've tried to figure it out and it is just not working. So ... if someone out there can reply with a solution for me that would be great.
    Extra credit for automatically compressing the backups with the built in compression utility so my backups use less space.
    Thanks in advance.

    I have another psd (adjustment_layer.psd) file that only has one layer, and it is an adjustment layer. . 
    That is possible. An adjustment layer must be over a layer. The layer that it is over can have its visibility off but there needs to at least two layers in your (adjustment_layer.psd) file.  For you can not have and adjustment layer without a layer to adjust.
    Are all your PSD file the same in size  x px by y px at z DPI?
    It would be easy to create an action just to add the adjustment layer you want if your (adjustment_layer.psd) file adjustment layer, layer mask is a reveal all or hide all mask. You can Batch the action or use the Image processor script and have it include your action that add the adjustment layer  you do not need to write a script.
    I would also record that action to add the adjustment layer clipped to the layer below. There is a bug in CS4 and CS5 Action Player. Actions that have recorded adding adjustment layers to be applied to all layers below may play incorrectly.  You will have to pay to get a fix  for this bug for Adobe is not going to apply a fix the the current releases of Photoshop. The bug is so far slated to be fixed in CS6 time will tell.

  • Missing thumbnails after dragging a project into another folder?

    Why would cause whole bunch of photos in an album to not show up in browser/viewer after dragging and dropping from one folder into another?
    If I click on the root folder where the project is located, all the photos show up again on the browser/viewer. But when I click on the specific album within the folder, they disappear again.
    The only way I can find to get Aperture to display the photos in the album is to close the app and relaunch it, which is extremely annoying when I just want to move a couple of albums around.

    Looks like this is the closest to the trouble I am having. I am having the same issues. just downloaded the trial version and imported all my iphoto library but all my video files are missing those thumbnail in the browser format... well actually regardless how I view the file, thumbnails are missing for all the videos. To me, it doesn't do anything even if I restart the app...

  • Moving topics from one folder to another

    Can anybody please help me on this issue. Is there any way i
    can move topic from one folder to another without disturbing the
    link and all that. I am afraid to move topic from one folder to
    another because i feel that it might disrupt something behind the
    scene.

    As Peter said, it all should work fine. If it doesn't your
    projwect either suffers from a corrupt CPD-file or there already
    exists a file of the same name in the destination folder.
    If such a file has been copied there from outside of RH,
    you'll have to remove the offending file using Windows Explorer.
    If there is no such file, close your project, delete the file
    named <projectname>.cpd and open the project again.

  • Why can't I drag and drop music from a folder on my PC into my iTunes window?

        Why can't I drag and drop music from a folder on my PC into my iTunes window?
    I have not found any article that has answered this question. They have come up with things like open the side bar and it will work, or you are using wrong format of music. Now this all happened when I upgraded to iTunes 10 and has not worked since and it worked fine before. Music format is correct, I have even gone as far as copying a file already in iTunes and trying to add it again. As soon as the files enters the frame of iTunes the music files icon the pointer is carrying turns into a circle with a slash through it.
    ITunes Ver. is 11.1.5.5  Windows Ver. is Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center
    Files I have tried adding are standard MP3, 256 kbps purchased AAC Audio file, MP3 converted by iTunes into a 256 or 320 kbps AAC Audio file. None can be draged and droped but all can added by going to File/Add File to Library...  or File/Add Folder to Library...
    Add items from your computer to your iTunes library
    Do either of the following:
    1. Drag a file or folder from the desktop to the iTunes window.If you add a folder, all the files it contains are added to your library.
    2. In iTunes, choose File > Add to Library, locate a file or folder, and click Open.
         I can add files and folders by doing number 2 above but can not doing number 1
    I have gone as far as uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling per apple procedures below.
    Steps
    1. Remove iTunes and its related components from the Control Panel
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended effects.

    I had this problem on Windows 8.1.1 and iTunes 11.2.2.3
    To resolve it from within Itunes I did :  Edit, Preferences, Sharing.
    I took the tick out of "Share my library on my local network"
    Click OK.
    Closed iTunes/
    Reopened iTunes and I can drag and drop.
    I went back into Edit, Preferences, Sharing and put the tick back and clicked OK.
    Works fine now.

  • Why am I having trouble importing vCards? I follow the Help Center instructions by dragging and dropping, but some don't sync into the cloud. And why can't I drag multiple vCards? I have over 4,000. Please tell me I don't have to do one at a time?
