  • < Unspecified file name > file is larger than the maximum size supported by datastore '< indeterminate datastore >.

    I know that this issue has much spoken in the forums, but the answers are always to make sure that your block sizes are set to 8 MB - mine are already. Let me explain:

    I have a virtual machine with a large amount of connected storage - something along the lines of discs 10 x 1.99 to. Sit all VMDK on partitions of the VMFS of 8 MB of size block, including the configuration of the VM (location of the pagefile).

    Every time I try and snapshot of the virtual machine, I see the "< unspecified file name > file is larger than the maximum size supported by the data store ' < unspecified datastore >. All other virtual machines instant fine, but any other VM has a similar amount of storage as the VM problem.

    I have now moved the configuration files of the virtual machine to a new partition VMFS 5 of 1.91 TB, but the instant error persists. Most of the readers is sitting on VMFS 3.33 or 3.46. It will take me a while to move all VMFS 5 to see if that solves the problem.

  • Adding file names when using "combine the files supported in acrobat.

    Adding names of files when using "combine the files supported in acrobat.

    Is this possible?

    Either as a note at the bottom of each page or a note on the print?

    Without having to write or copy and paste the names of files in the PDF by hand?

    As in "automatically"?

    What it is for:

    I do guides step by step for some software for computer magazine.

    I am taking screenshots of the software and they are sent to the art director as a bunch of .tif files to be used for layouts.

    I need to be able to show him where to put the numbers (1,2,3 etc) for steps-by-step and where he can cut the screenshots.

    I am therefore files .tif Guide to the artistic director. Using Acrobat 9 Pro I can easily combine all the .tif files into a PDF with the extension of the shell "Combine" supported files in acrobat.

    And using the comment & markup tools, I can easily ad numbering, arrows, important areas and so on.

    However, these guides often include a lot of screenshots, so it is important for the Artistic Director to be able to quickly identify each screenshot. And for that he needs the name of the original .tif file to follow the screenshot in the pdf. So that when printed out the pdf and made his page layouts, there no browse and compare a pile of screenshots without a name.

    When you combine files in Acrobat format (in flat PDF rather than a portfolio), you will get bookmarks for each document referencing the original file name. If they are not displayed, click the button in the dialog box Options combine to turn them back on.

    Since you're combining a series of pictures, you'll find yourself with a bookmark for each page - so the value seen initial of your PDF "bookmarks and page Panel" to file on the file > box properties dialog and you have close to what you want. Write the names of files in the footers is possible but requires script to extract the bookmark names and page numbers, then write a watermark on each page.

  • Try to restore a lost Thunderbird profile, but can't "move profile" because the file names are too long

    I'm having a problem with Thunderbird that is addressed in several comments here and on "mozillaZine", but trying to follow the instructions for fixing it, I ran into a new problem that I see not addressed. The initial problem is that described in this thread, where my files and everything just disappeared, and I am invited to start to create a new profile:

    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/1040003

    Following the links in this thread, I get to this - and since my address book has also apparently gone, I click the internal link to the section titled 'Lost profile':

    http://KB.mozillazine.org/Recovering_a_profile_that_suddenly_disappeared

    Step 1 then sent me here:

    http://KB.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder_-_Thunderbird

    Step 2 on this page says: "Copy the profile folder where you want to store." When I try to do it, however (using Windows Explorer on Windows 7), he gets to halfway through the copy and then hang up because it clashes with a file name that is too long to copy. And according to the prompt that tells me this, there are many more yet to come long file names.

    Ignore this error and I just ignore these files? That means the copy of profile won't be complete, which I think would be dangerous or would just cause other errors. Or is there some simpler way quite do what I originally planned to do, which is to recover the profile which has mysteriously disappeared?

    Again, I'm under Thunderbird on Windows 7 and it was used for years without ever encountering this extremely irritating glitch. I'll be grateful for any help.

    Here are three different approaches, I suggest:

    1 see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-multiple-profiles and see if you can switch to that you want to use the Profile Manager.

    2. While TB is NOT running, use a prompt with the following commands: Note: place the entire path in quotation marks.

    • CD "the full path of your current profile directory name '.
    • xcopy "the full path of your"good"profile name" / s/h
    • now check with the Windows Explorer, and switch to him as above

    3 change "profiles.ini" (using a text editor such as Notepad) to point to the profile 'good '. "profiles.ini" looks like this:

    [General]
    StartWithLastProfile = 1

    [Profile0]
    Name = default
    IsRelative = 1 * change this to 0 *.
    Path = yt20rg5n.default * change this to the path and the name of your profile of "good."
    Default = 1

    Let me know how it turns out.

  • File names image missing from the underside of the Photo Image

    I recently spoke with someone from Apple support and they confirmed that displaying the name of the file Image is a present feature in iPhoto, but was lost in the update photograph.  Their suggestion was to send feedback to Apple.  He said that it is the most effective way to get results and more of us than that best the chance we have to see this feature in a future update of photography.  It was my return to Apple:

    "Thank you for the update photograph... I appreciate some of the improved features that have been made for him. However, I would like to note that the absence of the names of files that appears under the image is cruelly.  I find this information very useful as I get pictures from other sources and helps determine the ownership of the photos.  Now, I'm a little lost without her.

    While the screen may look sharper and more user friendly for some, it would be good to know that this feature could be made available View (display Image File Name) option.

    Could I do that as a suggestion for your next release? »

    If you are also missing this feature, I encourage you to submit your comments to http://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html

    iPhoto has used the names of files as a default title to be displayed as thumbnails, if no title has been assigned. Photo for Mac displays only the titles under the thumbnails, if a title had been awarded. He makes a distinction between a title assigned user and a file name.

    As a workaround: in the tip section the user to change the title of a photo file name - have a look, we have posted a few Scripts from Apple:

    Photos will show the title under the thumbnails if you select the titles in the menu: view > metadata.

    An alternative workaround: you get pictures of the power.  It allows you to browse your photo library with fields of metadata under the thumbnails - keywords, titles, names of files. You can customize what you want to see in the title or subtitle.

    But I support the request for better support of metadata in the pictures.  The feedback form is here: Feedback - Photos - Apple

  • 5.6.1 pages how to insert a file name

    In previous versions of Pages I could insert the file name or the full path of a document in the foot. I create multiple documents for our society. This has been invaluable when changes had to be made to a document or form. I can't find this option in Pages 5.6.1. Where at - it go? How can I insert a file name?

    Pages v5 (all versions) has been a complete rewrite - no no from the Pages ' 09. Insert menu: file name was never added to the application. There is no provision in the application of v5 Pages to insert the entire path either.

    If you click on the document name in the title bar, a Panel opens with the file name have been screened, and paste that in your footer. He was never a capacity in Pages ' 09 to insert a path of the document.

    The following AppleScript will display a POSIX path for the currently open document in Pages. It will support installation of Pages three different scenarios:

    1. V5 installed only with the open document pages
    2. Pages ' 09 installed only with the open document
    3. V5 pages and Pages ' 09 installed and running with open document

    2. File menu: Option key: Save under... Pages_path. Since the File Format: selector, select Application. A .app extension will be added file name. Click on the box to hide the Extension. Save to your desktop. This is the clickable application.
    3. When you want the complete path of the open document, you click on the Pages_path icon on your desktop and a dialog box is displayed. Select, copy and paste this path into your Pages document.

  • Strange file names...

    Hi all

    I have come across this before and someone tried to help but so does more...

    The question I have is that my ReadyNAS102 I have several folders containing a large number of photos. My other half uses a Mac while I use a PC. The original question, I was using Windows 7 but I'm now using Windows 10 and turned up the same question!

    As you can see, there is a file name very strange that on the Mac, is stated correctly and contains all the data. On my PC (Windows 10), the file name is different, and when I try to open it, it displays the below error.

    All records have been made on the Mac and I can open them. So I do not understand why the strange record the fact. The properties of the folder show also 0 bytes that can be disturbing, but on Mac it appears correctly.

    Add to that, my NAS has suddenly decided to forget my IDs so now cannot access the web page again based so yet an another re-installation of the operating system is necessary... I tried to retrieve the password, but as usual when this happens which displays an error too. For this reason I am unfortunately unable to advise what firmware is installed, the last time I have open a session that saw an update available so I'd say I'm just 1 revision behind the current.

    Any help with this would be extremely appreciated I'm completely fed up of this product and the feeling that all the data is constantly vulnerable to losses.

    Hello

    You see these strange names in Windows because Windows SMB does not support the non-standard characters in the name, such as colons. Windows uses the colon to designate records for paths. Windows will not let you register the colons in filenames, but Linux prevents you from creating a colon in a file name. You should be able to access it through the GUI and rename the file/folder, or on something like FTP or SSH.

  • Titles or subtitles of the file name?

    Is it possible to automatically generate the titles or subtitles of the file name? I have a video made up of several small files and you need to insert their names under the name of a chapter, or at least as a subtitle. FCPX only supports to support the generation of TC.

    The short answer (obtuse) is not. Not in FCPX alone.

    I seriously doubt you will be interested in this procedure, but someone might be.

    You need movement (this is the only expense here), TextWrangler and a droplet of Automator (see below).

    First, gather all your files of clips in a folder.

    Drop the file on the files in the folder (the automator app/drop) that will create a text file with the names of all files in the folder. When you are prompted to save the file, you can name it and save it wherever you want.

    Gout Gets the names of files from the Finder, and they are complete paths, such as:

    / Users/fx/Desktop/txtLicenses/Aardvark Cafe readme.txt

    [You can download a copy of the 'Files in the folder' drop HERE ]

    Open a window in TextWrangler, and then drag the text file to a blank page (very cool - TextWrangler automatically opens the file with drag and drop.) [TextWrangler is FREE of Barebones.com (http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/) software, everyone should have a copy! The most recent version is 5.0.2 in date 25/12/2015]

    Type the command + F to open the Find/Replace dialog box. Make sure that Grep is checked.

    To find them, use this regex:

    .*\/(.+)\.. +

    [translated: find everything up to and including the last ' / ' character, can find everything up to the last period and save it as a game (the parenthesis) and then find everything at the end of the line]

    As an alternative, use:

    \1\n

    [Translated: prints the substring and adds a newline character - it will be double space lines of text]

    In the drop-down menu with the label of 'g', save... (model - something like Remove Path and FileType) so you can find it again easily.

    The text from the above example will become:

    Aardvark Cafe readme

    [and will follow an empty line]

    [I recommend you do all your spelling at this point.] Make sure that all text is as you want it to appear in FCPX. Repair later gets a bit dicey. and generally it is a good idea to start over if you need to make changes to the text file.]

    Save the file with another file in TXT format.

    On the move:

    Create a project generator. It can be almost any length, so accept the default value of 10 seconds. You will be stretching out in FCPX in any case.

    Add: Generators > text > file

    [You can use the Inspector to Format to choose the font, size, etc. and the inspector looks for color and 3D options].

    In the Inspector of the generator, find the section, load your text file

    Set the speed to Custom

    Reset the Custom speed setting

    Publish the speed of Custom setting slider

    Save in FCPX (and create a category called subtitles)

    When you save the generator in FCPX, the file being used is hard-copied in the media for access folder. You cannot publish the setting browse generator, so all files subtitles prepared in this way are projects of "One Shot". You can throw away them once your project is completed because their utility essentially died with the FCPX project.

    In FCPX, apply the generator to the plot and develop it to adapt to the length.

    Keyframe of the lines of text to match the timing of your video. This is where double spacing will be useful because it is a real pain in simple lines of keyframe and you will need a bit of space for a step-by-step. You can, of course, import the audio portion of your story in motion, create a project for quite a long time for the entire length and key image subtitles in movement. You can export as, eventually, the subtitle project as ProRes (if you do not use 4444, then you can apply the Composite blend mode add to the layer that you use in FCPX as the background should be black.)

    If all of your clips are the same length of time, then using the subtitle generator is a snap. Set a keyframe at 0 for the appearance of the first line and in the end, the last line should appear, simply drag the speed until the last line shows control (should be at or close to 100%). The generator systematically displays a single line both throughout the progression of his 'read'

    I found that the faster is to import the audio in motion and create a Motion project, the length of the audio used for subtitles + a little extra at the end.  Listen to the audio, and for each line that you display, add a keyframe... little whatever it is. When there is a keyframe for each line, listen again and adjust keyframe values to display the line. This will leave you with linear transitions from one image to another key (and overlapping in some cases, or the appearance of lines before image real key because of "Rounding errors") - is NOT a problem! Just select 1 keyframe, type command + A to select all the keyframes, and then right-click on a keyframe and select constant on the menu drop down. This will create a step-by-step through each value and you give the * discreet * timing you have need for the text to appear at the right time.  Remove the audio track and save the project as a generator of FCPX... it is faster and easier to export a track video overlay.

    You need movement 5.1.x or better (there are serious problems with 5.0 versions and file generator.)

    I know it doesn't look like it, but this method of captioning is much easier than ANY other software of captioning I've tried in the past... NO timecode or the special formatting is required... other recommended spacing to double.

  • How can I get the 8.3 file name short AND way?

    We use some old DOS programs and need to use the old format back (filename.xxx). When the files are in the long trees, it is very difficult to find the names of files under Windows.

    There was a response published in Google (http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview/id/522710.html) which works very well under XP, but when I use it in Windows 7, I get the long file name.

    Does anyone know how to do this?  The program can be changed?  Here is the program of this flajason-ga posted, but it must be updated for Windows 7 (I only know how to program in Foxpro).  Thank you, Alan

    After my last comment, I read your details a little closer.
    The last script I posted was to list out a whole directory in 8.3 format.
    If you are looking for a friendly way of Clipboard to recover the 8.3
    for individual files, that will be more to your liking.

    Same thing as before. Copy the below into Notepad and save it with a .vbs extension.
    Except that this time, you can simply drag and drop a folder or file icon
    on the .vbs file and it displays the short path in an input box.
    where you can copy the value and use anything you want to.

    If you're industrious, you can also save the .vbs file in your
    Folder "send to" (C:\Documents and Settings\ [yourname] \SendTo) to have
    It is available in your context menu with a right click.
