Why cant i copy my files from my computer?

why cant i copy my files from my computer?

What happens when you try, how are you doing it, and what are the files (music, films, documents ...) ?
If you are trying to copy documents then you first need an app on the iPad that supports the type of file that you want to copy to it - the iPad doesn't have a file system like a 'normal' computer, everything has to be associated with an app. As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.
If you are trying to copy music or films then are you using your computer's iTunes ?

Why can't I delete files from networked computer?

I have my iMac G5 networked to a PC. Lately, when I try to delete PC files and directories from the Mac, I keep getting the error message:
"The operation cannot be complete because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items." It will not allow me to move files from the PC directories onto the Mac desktop either.
I have no problem in seeing all of the files from either computer. I can also delete Mac files while working at the PC. I have checked all connections and configurations. Is there anything special that I should check.
Thanks
Herschel

Are you using an Admin account to do these things? I get similar messages under those circumstances but when I use a regular account I can perform the edits (as long as I can see the content). I have no idea why this is so - but essentially you are using your OS X's server capabilities that are built into the non-server edition of OS X.

It could be because your camera must be relatively new model for the PSE you are currently using. Do you get any error messages when you try to transfer your photos?
For unsupported cameras there are essentially 3 ways to deal:
1) Upgrade PSE 10 the latest version (version 11) if at all possible;
2) Use the software that might have come with the camera;
3) Use Adobe's DNG converter and watch this video to learn how to use it:

Cany I Copy dng files from one computer to another....

...without losing the editing I've done in the develop mode? I don't want to move them, just copy them.

That's one of the big benefits of the DNG format, Pixeltaker. All your LR edits can be stored directly inside the file.
LR is a database driven application, so the database is the first place it stores all your edits. LR can be told to also store the exact same information automatically inside your DNG files, but it's not configured for this out-of-the-box. To insure the edits are written into the files themselves, you can do one of three things:
Before copying the files to another location using (Win) Explorer or (Mac) Finder, select every file in the Library module and press Ctrl (Cmd) - S. If you have hundreds of images, you'll see a progress meter appear in the top bar while it "saves" all the changes logged in the catalog to the DNG files.
Alternatively you could use the LR export function to select all the files you wish to copy, and use the export as DNG option. This will create a second copy of the files in a new location of your choosing, and the new files will contain all the edits.
As a third option, you can go into the catalog settings of LR, and on the Metadata tab check "automatically write changes into XMP." This basically tells LR to automatically perform step 1 to every DNG/RAW file live as you perform the changes. This will also apply retractively to any files in the catalog which have been changed, but not written to the files, so if there are many you should expect LR to grind away for a bit after enabling this option. There are some circumstances where this may have an impact on your computer's performance. When working on one or few files at a time, the live updating of each file will happen seamlesssly with no noticable impact. When adjusting hundreds of files at once, you may notice a slight performance degredation as every file is touched by LR with every single change. The degree of the impact really depends on your system, and the performance of the drive containing the RAW/DNG files. Many photographers (myself included) feel this option is the most convenient, and the tradeoff is well worth the occasional slowdown. With this option enabled, you could go straight to the master files and simply copy them to your new location, and all the changes will always be there.
If you have non-DNG RAW files, LR will instead save the changes into a sidecar XMP file, as the proprietary files created by the camera manufacturers do not have a space designated for logging your edits. This creates two files to manage while moving files around, so I much prefer DNG for simplicity.

You will be able to do copy & paste when 3.0 comes out this summer.
Or even better while the iPhone is connected to my PC can I view the address book on the iPhone and make changes using my PC keyboard?
No. You would make changes to the address book on your PC and then sync via iTunes.

Can't copy some files from Windows 7 to Mac OSX over network

Hi,
I'm running the latest version of Max OSX v10.8.4 on a brand new Macbook Pro.
I have followed the setup instructions at http://www.7tutorials.com/how-change-workgroup-mac-os-x-easy-networking to access my Macbook from Windows, and http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/24950/how-to-share-a-folder-in-os-x-with-windows/ to share some folders from my Macbook to Windows.
I am now trying to copy some files from my Windows 7 Pro (SP1) computer to my Mac, and have hit the following problems:
I can view my Macbook in my list of local networked computers on WIndows, but I cannot access it. Clicking on it causes Windows 7 to try and access it, but then I get a message after a minute saying the network path could not be found. However, if I manually enter the IP address of my Macbook in the Windows address bar (\\192.168.0.191), I can view and access all the shared folders. I can never access the Macbook via it's computer name (\\MACBOOK-ROB).
I cannot copy some files from Windows to my Macbook shared folders via Windows. There is nothing to distinguish these files from the hundereds of other files that I have successfully copied to my Macbook. They are pictures and music with no special characters in the filenames, not overly long filenames or folder paths, no access restrictions, or any other security restriction that I can see. However, every single attempt to copy these files to my Macbook results in WIndows reporting that access to the destination was denied.
I have tried both these above scenarios on WiFi and Ethernet, and the results are the same.
So:
Why am I unable to access my Macbook by it's computer name on the network? How can Windows see it, but not access it?
What are the limitations on transferring files over SMB that is (presumably) causing these specific files to fail?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

I have a fix for inability to copy files. I had the same problem moving a lot of old files across my LAN from a Windows XP machine to a Mac Mini running Mountain Lion. After confirming copy of some special file, I would get an error that terminated the copy operation, and info on the Mac side would show a locked folder.
I finally decided to eliminate all special files on the Windows side, before copying, by running
attrib -s -h -r /s /d [drive or folder]\*.*
in a command window. Running attrib /? tells what the arguments mean, but it doesn't explain that you need the *.* to make the command go through the hierarchy clearing the special attributes on all the files.
After I did that, and then used drag and drop between two Windows Explorer windows (one on the Windows drive, on on the target drive on the Mac), the whole move operation ran to completion without stopping either for error or to ask for confirmation.
I do not have a fix for the inability to access some computers by name rather than by IP address. I'm looking into the possibility of activating bind on the Mac but I haven't done anything yet.

Copying data files from Mac to Windows on MacBook running Parallel

How can I copy .doc files from Mac folders to Windows folders?
I am running Parallel but I cannot access the Mac folders and files when I am running Windows.
I cannot access flash drives from Windows either.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
MacBook Black Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Theres a feature called shared folders that works
quite nicely. I cant quite remember the specifics but
I have done it before. Or if you've got a few small
ones copy and pasting between work spaces now works.
Cheers, Arthur
Now all I need do is figure out how to turn on the sound when using Windows. Everything is as it should be on my Xp setup but no sound. Mac must be controlling this but I do not know where to look to solve this situation.
Have a great week,

How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?

How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone? I can physically copy the tunes as mp3's but the phone does not seem to be able to play all of them. Do I need to copy an entire album or can I just pick & choose individual songs? The phone is question is an LG running who knows what for an operating system.

AAC is Advanced Audio Coding. Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD). More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder). Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button. Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder. After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version." You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding. Hopefully your phone will play that.

Copy a file from URL to local HDD

Hi,
I've got 2 problems:
1. I'm an absolute beginner and an german-speaking user of this forum
2. I want to copy a file from within a signed applet (with full access permissions) from a URL on the server to a local directory on the client. It works with .txt or .ini files, but not with .dll or .exe. The .exe file has only 1KB instead of the 5MB and contains only something like "-1". Help!!
Here's what i made:
URL updateurl = new URL(getCodeBase() + "testfile.exe");
InputStream in = updateurl.openStream();
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("C:\\temp\\testfile.exe");
byte[] buf = new byte[4096];
int len;
while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0)
out.write(buf, 0, len);
out.close();
in.close();
Thanks for any help!

From looking at the code I can't see any blatant errors.
The only thing I can think of, is: is your code wrapped by a try/catch block which you are ignoring?
The reason I ask, is that maybe you are not downloading the file you intended in the first place. The reason I think this is because of the line:
URL updateurl = new URL(getCodeBase() + "testfile.exe");Shoudn't there be a separator between getCodeBase() and testfile.exe? Only a guess, since getCodeBase may already return the separator.
HTH,
Manuel Amago.

Copy a file from hard disk to a jar

Is there any way to copy a file from hard disk to a jar file?

Edited by: hajani on Dec 7, 2008 4:11 AMIf you really do mean 'jar' file an not 'zip' or 'rar' then you can use class java.util.jar.JarFile and write your own code. If you don't feel like writing a load of code then and you can guarantee that the 'jar' executable is going to be available then you could use Runtime.exec() or it's cousin ProcessBuilder. If you mean a 'zip' file then you could use class java.util.zip.ZipFile and write a load of code. If you mean a 'rar' file then you will either have to find a 'rar' class library or again use Runtime.exec().
