Zip files compatible with windows

window error when using Mac zip file "too many files"

If you select a single text file, then right-click on it and select Compress, I would expect this to produce a ZIP file containing just a single file i.e. the text file.
If however you select a folder then the ZIP file would contain not only the folder, the obvious files in the folder, but may also contain some invisible files like .DS_Store
Ok, the above is what I expected, I have just been testing this and this is actually what happens. A single file e.g. a text file when made in to a ZIP by right-clicking and selecting compress produces a ZIP file which contains the following
thetextfile.txt <--- (the text file)
__MACOSX <--- (an invisible folder)
__MACOSX/._thetextfile.txt (an invisible file in the invisible folder, this is not the text file itself)
So, yes it is more than one file in the ZIP file. By the way, you can 'see' what is in a ZIP file by using Terminal.app and typing the following
zipinfo nameofzip.zip
You can use Terminal.app also to create a 'clean' ZIP file containing just the text file the command looks like this
zip nameofzip.zip thetextfile.txt
Then to check do the zipinfo command again.
There is also a a commercial tool do simplify doing this, funnily enough it specifically mentions the __MACOSX folder etc. See http://gotoes.org/sales/Zip_Mac_Files_For_PC/

    Hi mybrojer.
    I will be glad to assist you.
    The file that you download from the Canon website is .ZIP file.  When you select [RUN], it unpacks the setup folder.  Please disconnect the printer from the computer and follow the instructions below to install the printer:
    Open your [Downloads] folder.
    You will see two icons with the name: MF4350_MFDrivers_W64_us_EN.exe. Double-click on the yellow folder icon with this name.
    In the folder you will see two listings for [Setup].  Double-click on the [Setup] that has the type as [Application].
    The "MF Drivers Setup Wizard" will open.  Proceed through the steps and restart the computer.
    After restarting the computer, connect the USB cable and allow the installation to complete.
    Print a document.

  • Which version of oracle developer suit is compatible with windows 7  32 bit

    Can somebody plz let me know which version of Oracle Developer suite is compatible with windows 7(32 bit).And plz tell me the link through which i can download this.I want to download this software for making practice of Oracle Forms and Reports by installing it at my PC.
    i had downloaded ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip from Oracle's site but while installing it it showing the error msg in the log as-
    Using paramFile: C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Temp\install\install\oraparam.ini
    Checking installer requirements...
    Checking operating system version: must be 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2. Actual 6.1

    Exiting Oracle Universal Installer, log for this session can be found at C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2012-08-13_03-14-21PM.log
    Please press Enter to exit...
    Please provide me some solution for this---

    Oracle Developer Suite (ODS - Forms 10g) 10g R2 (ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip) is not certified on Windows 7, however it will work. Oracle has certified Forms 11g (Fusion Middlware 11g R2) for Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit).
    You can make ODS work on Windows 7, but you have to change a few things before installing to make it work.
    Checking operating system version: must be 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2. Actual 6.1Failed <<<<>
    This is a fairly common bug (not just with Oracle). The Oracle installer was written to check for a specific version of Windows rather than check for a minimum version of Windows.
    Fix 1: Right-click the Oracle setup.exe and select Properties and then click the Compatibility tab and select "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP SP3".
    The Oracle installer also is unable to check the amount of Virtual Memory (VM) available when the VM is set to "System Managed."
    Fix 2: Open the System Control panel (Start => Control Panel => System OR press Windows Key and Pause Break key). From the System Properties window, click the Advanced tab and click the Settings button under Performance. Change the Virtual Memory settings to 2048mb min and 4096mb max. Then save and restart your computer. See Microsoft - Change the size of virtual memory for more information on changing the VM. (Note; after the installation is complete, you can - and should - change the VM settings back to System Managed.)
    Lastely, the Oracle installer is not designed to work with the Windows 7 User Account Control (UAC) functionality.
    Fix 3: Right-click Oracle setup.exe and select "Run as Administrator".
    Done, now you are ready to run the Forms 10g setup again.
    As I mentioned above, Forms 11g is certified with Windows 7 and is also the only supported version available so you might want to skip Forms 10g and go straight to Forms 11g. For this you will need to download and install WebLogic Server (WLS) 10.3.5 and Fusion Middleware (FMw) 11g R2. Install WLS first, but do not run the configuration at the end of the installation. Then install FMw and run the configuration during this installation. Also, you will want to run both installers "As Administrator".
    Hope this helps,

  • Illustrator 10 compatible with Windows Vista?

    I'm looking to purchase Illustrator 10 (can't afford the $600 for CS3). Is it compatible with windows vista? I've been all over the Adobe website, but there is no information pertaining to any upgrades or FAQs on the subject.

    You'll be trying to run an old version of Illustrator (now at v.13) on an operating system with which it was never tested, so all bets are off.
    However, users have reported success with Illustrator versions going back as far as 8. After installation, you will most likely need to do the following:
    Right-click on the Illustrator EXE file, choose properites, click the compatibility tab, and then select...
    * Disable Visual Themes
    * Disable Desktop Composition
    * Disable display scaling on high DPI machines
    It's going to be difficult to purchase a legal copy of such an old version.
    Caveat emptor.
    Also make sure you update to 10.0.3.

  • Is PE10 compatible with Windows 8? Having trouble with the organizer.

    Is PE10 compatible with Windows 8? Having trouble with the organizer

    It does sound very Watch Folders-esque, however, it seems strange that there are many folders involved. Are all the folders under a single parent folder perhaps? If so, you could try renaming or moving that folder. Additionally, to clarify, all 60 files are images, correct?
    Additionally, you can try creating a new catalog, just to see if that lets you in. Hold down the Shift key while launching the Organizer. If you get the timing right, the Catalog Manager will appear.

  • Is itunes compatible with windows 8.1

    is itunes compatible with windows 8.1

    Bull-pucky the latest version is compatible!  I have spent the better part of a great Sat. downloading versions all the way back to 10.7 even deleting the Library.itl   file and starting fresh.  I am running Windows 8.1 / 64-bit. . . . .went into ITunes Store today and all of a sudden NO WORDS OR DESCRIPTIONS APPEAR, ONLY PICTURES OF ALBUMS.  How's one supposed to purchase anything when you cannot see what you're clicking on?  ITunes has long had issues with Win 8.1 which I'm aware of, but THEY have done something from their end (possibly with this new $7.99 per month change coming)  I'm assuming if I had a Mac this wouldn't be a problem, but this just stinks!  I purchase a ton of music and have 16 published stations, do they not want my $$ any longer?  Not negative towards you, sorry - can you help?

  • Adobe Acrobat 5 not compatible with Windows 8

    When I try to open up files saved in Adobe Acrobat 5 my new computer with Windows 8 gives me a message that they are not compatible with Windows 8. What do I need to do to be able to open these files on my new computerwth Windows 8?

    Did you install reader or such on Win8? AA5 is not even compatible with Win7, though it can be made to work with work arounds for the 32-bit version. I suspect you also have a 64-bit system, which I think is totally incompatibile with AA5. Download the Reader XI and try to open the PDFs with that. I suspect they will open fine.
    If you want to create PDFs, you will need to purchase AA XI.

  • Unzipping Mac .zip files on a Windows PC

    Does anybody know of a Windows program that will decompress Mac .zip (gz) files reliably? I've Tried StuffIt Standard for Windows but it quits every time with a warning, "Engine Error:Internal Error." Sure, I can make .sit files on the Mac and use Stuffit to expand them in Windows, but that's not the solution I'm looking for. If I already have a Mac .zip file on my Windows PC is there any way to open it without using a Mac?
    I've searched these forums but all my searches come up with answers to the opposite question: How do I open Windows .zip files on my Mac?

    A .gz file is not a "Mac Zip file" but a GNU Zip file, which is commonly used on Unix and Linux computers (OS X is a form of Unix).
    You can get a gzip application for Windows here, or Google for something like "gzip for Windows".
    Archives made by the Finder on a Mac are regular zip files (.zip files), just like the ones you would see on Windows.

  • Is CS3 Design Standard compatible with Windows 7 64-bits and MS Office 2010 Pro Plus?

    Hi,
    I have been googling around to see if Adobe CS3 Design Standard is compatible with Windows 7 64-bits with MS Office 2010 Pro Plus, but I couldn't find a decent answer.
    If anyone here has any idea on this, please let me know.
    As far as i know Adobe CS3 comes with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro which is not compatible with MS Office 2010, so I am sort of worried that I will need to upgrade my CS3 to CS6.
    Any advises are welcome.
    Thanks.

    I don't know if Acrobat 8 is Win 7 64 bit compatible or if it's supported. The rest of the apps should be fine.
    But I do think you'll have issues with Office 2010 files being placed into InDesign.
    Moving to CS6 is something you should be thinking about very soon. You only get upgrade pricing until the end of the year, but I highly recommend taking a look at Creative Cloud. At $29.99/month for the first year it's a bargain.

  • Is this new Photoshop compatible with Windows 7?

    I tried to use an older version of Photoshop on my computer, but it was not compatible with Windows 7.  I was looking for the new version, but everywhere I read, it said it wasn't compatible.  Now I was considering the Photoshop and Lightroom bundle as a monthly package, so I wanted to find out if they are compatible with my PC which still runs on Windows 7 O/S.

    Do you mean can CS6 open files generated in Photoshop 7?
    Yes. To my knowledge without exception.

    Many and sincere thanks!!

    You need to have your computer looked at for upgrading and evaluate your third party hardware, software and files.
    To fix your issue is too complicated and lengthy to go into all of it here, it will require the services of person very familiar and experienced with Mac's to first recover your data and then restore OS X back to a functional state which may or may not require new hardware/software installed.
    You can hire the services of a local Mac computer support technician experienced in these matters.
    Have them look at your Wifi security/speed, RAM amount, extra storage and computer backup proceedures in the process.
    Good Luck.
