Briefcase has left an empty copy after I moved it.

I noticed a strange behaviour in my computer, specifically the Briefcase folder. When I created the folder, the first icon I see is regular folder icon, until I pressed the Enter key. If I moved by using the cut command, it is moved to another location, and I'm more in its first position. But when I do one Briefcase with the same name in the same place, it is named new portfolio 2. When I close and re-open the folder where it is located, the previous portfolio appear, although its empty and the icon is a regular folder, not on the Briefcase icon. Similar to when the file has been moved, he left a copy empty and not visible until I make another folder of Briecase with the same name. If anyone can help me explain why and how to get rid of the copy.

Hello ma.slzr

Portfolio such as implemented in Vista has serious problems, and it seems that they are not going to be fixed.  The reason may be that, in practice, the case is obsolete.

If you must use Briefcase in Vista, create a new Briefcase object each time, rather than stick a former.   Use the new command on the desktop to create, and then use Windows Explorer to move it to the destination folder before adding files to synchronize.  Even in this case, in my experience, portfolio won't be reliable.  Often, it crashes and it loses files.  Prior to Vista, I used the Briefcase for years without problem.  On Vista, it was nothing but trouble.

Fortunately, Microsoft provides a new and much better synchronization tool called Toy Synch.  You can find it here:

http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=c26efa36-98E0-4ee9-a7c5-98d0592d8c52

Synch toy 2.1 is more flexible and more powerful than the Briefcase.   I use it all day on Vista and would highly recommend it.

  • VMware ESXi 5.0 - "move to" data store a vmdk file has left at the original location

    Hi all

    I had to free up space on a SAN data store.  For this I used the function "move to...". "browser data store in VsphereClient.

    Did not notice directly but after I moved my E: drive vmdk file, he took no source data store.

    How can I make sure that vmdk (the source data store) may be deleted without impact on the vm?

    1. If 'vmkfstools d' report without lock, so I guess I could assume it is safe? Is there another way to check?

    2 vmkfstools seems not having the '-d' option in vSphere CLI? (East - this only accessible from ssh console on an ESXi? quid vCenter then?)

    In the data store, the files were:

    -Vm\win2k8_data.vmdk [SAN03] (data disk D :)

    -[SAN03] vm\win2k8_data - ctk.vmdk (-ctk looks that it has been created by Veeam)

    -[SAN03] vm\win2k8_transactlog.vmdk (E: transaction log 128 GB drive)

    -[SAN03] vm\win2k8_transact - ctk.vmdk (-ctk always assuming that it was created by Veeam ~ 8 MB)

    Steps to follow:

    -J' turned off the virtual machine using these car

    S ' installs 2 files on the E: drive

    -Removed the vm disk (<-my mistake? maybe this step left a lock file? in power vm off?)

    -Added the disk from the data store where I copied it

    Thanks for the help!

    behd

    Hi Behd,

    The best way to check if the vmdk on the source is not being used would be to add this vmdk to an existing virtual computer and turn on... ? If not used or is locked by one that turns on with success.

    If it has an instance running it wouldn't let you put under tension and raise an error of file locking. ?

  • Simple? How do you want 'INSERT' function to return the empty space after a field?

    All,

    I just have a PET of brain? I have a situation where I have a field that must return a single space, with a value that has a space before and after it.

    Example:

    In the text == > I'm < field > go to the office. <-notice no space between the two am, < field > and will

    I mean if set to FALSE, then "I am * not * going to the office."
    If true, then "I go to the office."

    If it is true, I am just RETURN(""); <-this returns a blank space


    If FALSE, I tried:

    RET = 'no '.
    RETURN ("" & ret & "");

    This property returns "I am notgoing to UNRWA. <-don't notice any empty space after the 'no '?

    I tried

    RET = 'no ';
    RET2 = ("" & ret);
    RETURN (Insert (ret2, 3, ""));

    Always the same result. What is strange, that is, if I do a RETURN (Insert (ret2, * 2 *, "")); then he comes back "I'm not tgoing to office" <-note the space between the "o" and the "t"?

    Ideas?

    I forgot about it. Depending on which version you use, DAL actually supported a function that will make the hard space for you, like this:

    Val = FLOAT (160) & 'not' & CHAR (160)
    Return (Val)

    If you have the Mavericks.app installed on your Mac or an external drive connected, the App Store is picking up.

    If you disconnect the external or move the copy of the application to a USB etc., eject.

    Relaunch the App Store and see if you can now download Mavericks from the pga of purchases.

    You can also set the date and time manually on your mac, uncheck the set the Date and time automatically

    Choose a date as February 2, 2016. You should be able to install your earlier copy of Mavericks.

    Set the date and time right now once done.

    KazUtsumi, I recommend first meeting AT & T and check to see if they provide a digital filter for your configuration and make sure that everything is in the right order (generally the fax must be one of the first things that connected to the telephone line).

    With regard to the installation, what else do you have on this line (telephone, answering machine, credit card machine, etc.) or is it a dedicated fax line?

We will try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts"I try to use the, restart firefox, I do it and it tells me to restart, but then I do and still get the same message. I've sent probably 25 crash reports with my email account, and nothing was in or solved in the last 3 weeks. Can someone help me please?

    Hey bartender,.

    Download, install and run Revo Uninstaller: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html mode advanced to see if you can correctly uninstall Firefox using this program.  I found it often works (and does a better job) when Vista uninstall process (or anything that was supplied with Firefox).  Make sure that you ONLY remove items related to Firefox in the areas of advanced (which is all it should be, but sometimes it offers more than it should)-when in doubt, make a note of it and leave it alone.

    If this does not work, see the following article on the Mozilla site on how to unininstall Firefox: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20Firefox.

    Here is another article on Mozilla's Firefox unininstalling.  It goes a little deeper than prior: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Lightroom has left while the import is in execution-photos are missing.

    Lightroom has left while the import is in execution-photos are missing.  How can I fix the index (?) so that I can see the pictures?

    When I look at some of the records, the number of pictures is 0.   In the 8.1 WIN it says there are 10 pictures (for example).

    If tried to re - import a fold er who had 0 photos in Lightroom, but it is said that the 10 photos are already there.

    Lightroom is not a file Explorer. It is not "air" inside a folder and see how many photos is there, just like Windows Explorer. If both should not match.

    If you are unable to import the photos, which means that they have already been imported and you will need to find in Lightroom. Then, go to the library Module and perform all 4 of these steps to find your photos:

    1. Click on all of the photographs in the catalog Panel
    2. Disable all filters (once or twice Ctrl-L)
    3. Develop all batteries (Photo->-> develop all batteries stacking)
    4. one of those 'missing' photos search by file name
  • CC of the Illustrator has stopped working after I moved around some fonts

    Hi all. I had a few problems of fonts with Microsoft Excel on my mac earlier today and has messed around with the fonts, essentially moving them from one folder to another, remove duplicates, etc.

    I must admit at this point that I am no Mac expert and I wouldn't do things the way of trial and error. and I can do something that I would that my CC I start now.

    I can't undo what I did as I don't remember what I was doing, and Time Machine isn't any help.

    I can not reinstall the CC because I did not setup and now Adobe won't let me not download again as apparently my OS is supposed to be out of date, even if it still meets the requirements minimum (OSX10.6.8) said.

    What should I do?

    IluvAI,

    May have moved members of families/family Verdana/Tahoma fonts out of the crucial folder or the disabled.

    You can try to move their back/activate them.

    or this specialized forum (where you can be able to find the answer in the previous discussions),

    There seems to be some uncertainty about your operating system and CC: according to this page of Adobe.

    You can not use it, but the reports in this forum say that it is possible (at least in some cases).

  • Files becomes locked after be moved. Help, please!

    I am running XP Home SP3. I recently had to repair my OS of the OSDisk from my computer, because of an accident of BONE. Almost everything works fine now, except when I move any kind of file or folder (regardless of the means of transport [copy, cut or slip]). After I moved the file or folder, whenever I try to open it, it tells me access is denied, and I can't remove items without using external programs like FileAssassin.

    Although I realize that there are many people who will say "go in safe mode and give yourself permissions... '. "That can allow me to delete THESE files, but it will not solve the problem and allows me to move files here on out.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I would have to question the way that files have been placed on the disk after the accident of the OS.  It is possible that these files are still attached to the owner under the old system.  Even if your user name is the same on the new system, the owner as determined by Windows is based on the SecureID (SID) on the file, that will be different on the two systems.  My first step would be to go to the top of the page directory of these restored files and take possession of them to make sure that your new user has:
