File Transfer issue between 10.4.11 + 4.4 Android phone

Hello.

I recently got a Polaroid link 6 "A6WH smartphone, Google Android KitKat 4.4 running, and despite being told of Polaroid that I should be able to transfer files (ie. photos, music, videos) between this phone and a G4 aluminum PowerBook running OS 10.4.11 (old, Yes, I know!), I can't. I was told that I have to download Android File Transfer, which I did, but it didn't work (it only works on OS 10.5). Android File Transfer is Version 1.0 - I don't think that there is no earlier version.

I tried to search on this forum and elsewhere online, some have suggested other programs, such as AirDroid, but when I tried to download them, they would not work with OS 10.4.11.

I was able to transfer files over a Bluetooth connection - and only from the computer (and not vice versa). The USB cable provided with the phone doesn't seem to work (anyway) without a program to make it easier.

Any suggestions for transfer files (ie. photos, music, videos) between these devices - via the USB port, or even simply through Bluetooth, back from the phone to the computer?

Also, are all the programs available to convert video to MP4 format files, as I can't get the phone to open any other format - BTW, free is better!)

Note: I would have gotten an iPhone, except for the fact that we tried to get rid of some AirMiles points that were about to expire, and they have not one!

Thank you

I have (and have had) smartfones non-Apple for some time

To transfer ALL kinds of files, I just use an intermediary "cloud service".

Many here will advise you http://dropbox.com/ as a reliable and free service

* NOTE: Dropbox is more supported by OS X Tiger with their desktop app - but access via the Web site is not affected (I use TenFourFox: a fork of Mozilla Firefox ESR 38 for Power Macintosh and Mac OS X Tiger PowerPC as a browser)

  • I can't transfer file via airdrop between the macbook pro and my iphone 6.

    Hello world

    just bought a new macbook pro 2015 and I can't transfer file via airdrop between the macbook pro and my iphone 6.

    Can someone please help me solve this problem?

    Thank you

    < re-titled by host >

    First check the steps to run the drop:

    Use AirDrop to send the contents of your Mac - Apple Support

    There are some work around to try airdrop work:

    1. Turn off Bluetooth on your Mac.
    2. Delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    3. Re-turn on Bluetooth

    You can find more info here:

  • File transfer huge difference in rates between two laptops

    On my laptop Lenovo T61p running Windows XP with 2 GB of RAM, I see avaerage 60KO/seconly files (import) transfer speed, while the other HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop computer running Vista with 4 GB of RAM is to give 500 KB/sec transfer rate. Both are on the wireless network. Why is such a big difference? What factors could cause such a bad performance on T61p?

    -vp

    Never mind. I found the reason for low file transfer rate. It was because of the importer of media and NT Shadow utility running on the system backup.

  • How does the file access work between Mac and VM

    Hi I am a new user to the Fusion of the VM. I have a new Mac, and I loaded Fusion of VM, some Serif desiging websites software and Vista. So, how to file access works between the Mac and the VM? All my files are on my hard drive to the Mac. I am ready to use the Serif software to make changes to my site, but how do I access files? Can they stay on the Mac and be shared - how do for them? Or transfer them to my hard drive to the VM?

    Thank you.

    Can connect the guest in an operating system file system Virtual Machine as if it was another physical Machine on the LAN once properly configured at the level of the BONE in both operating systems using industry Standard SBM/CIFS shares and has nothing to do with VMware Fusion provides in itself that the Virtual Machine has a virtual network adapter connected.  No matter if it is set to bridged, NAT. (default) or host-only because you can communicate between the host and the guest with any of them.

    The other option is to use VMware shared folders and or files in reverse.  While the second is a nice feature, it is problematic during the installation/uninstallation of some software in Windows Welcome and my need to be disabled mirrored folders for installs it / uninstalls and then reactivated.  To understand the issue take a look on note them it applies more so what is there in the if APPLIES to Microsoft KB Article below: article.  Take a look at you receive an "Error 1606" error message when you try to install or remove a program from Microsoft if the files in reverse are or have been activated and you get an Error 1606.

    In addition to the files shared VMware and or files in reverse, you can also drag and drop files between the host and the display of the Virtual Machine, for example from office to office.  Note: All of these VMware features require the VMware Tools installed in the supported host operating systems.

    Or of course, you can move the file system of the client files if you wish.

  • File transfer a BIG bug! Amazing transfer slow and full bandwidth used!

    I read about this since 2014! How Skype does not solve this problem yet? Amazing!
    I am transferring files between 2 PCs on Win7 64 bit and latest Skype (update), full bandwidth of 1.5 Mbps downloading (and I am sure is that Skype to use 100%!) and one day calculated for the transfer of 250 MB! It goes like a turtle! What the hell Skype is the download otherwise files?

    Horrible, please fix!

    Transfer of cloud of image files is not yet implemented on Office of Skype for Windows. File transfer is always P2P.

    Update: after further investigation, the problem is actually with the files containing the apostrophies. They are converted to xml literal "' and then probably the battery cannot download the file because it does not exist with this name.

  • Can a large file transfer solution be designed using BITS?

    Gurus!

    I need your help to design a large file transfer solution. I need to transfer files from a network of about 70000 PCs in a central records repository. The size of the files must be transferred to the PCs range from 10 MB to 2.5 GB. Is it a good idea to use the background intelligent transfer service (BITS) to transfer? Or is it better to use a custom or off the shelf solution FTP (such as IBM managed file transfer) for this? If I use LOCKS, what are the advantages and disadvantages?

    Please let me know gurus!

  • Of Treo 680 Bluetooth file transfer

    I am trying to send a file using Bluetooth on my PC (Vista) on my treo 680.  I know that they are paired correctly because I can hotsync via the bt connection.  However, when I try to send a file (.txt) via the Bluetooth connection, windows tells me "invalid argument was provided.  Anyone can shed some light on this problem?

    At this point you may need to contact the manufacturer of your PC and see if your PC Bluetooth stack has the service available for file transfer. If you follow the instructions on the Web page I provided about sending files via Bluetooth, then the issue may be with your PC Bluetooth.

    Message relates to: Palm i705

  • Droid: Bluetooth file transfer

    I have a USB Bluetooth adapter for my computer at home and I would like to know if it is possible to use it for the transfer of files between the Droid and your computer.  The first tests seem to indicate that there is no way to mount the SD card via the Bluetooth connection.

    I would like to know if you have any experience with this topic.

    Not natively. But there is a demand for it, called Bluetooth file transfer.

  • Large file transfer problems.

    I use fusion combined with a blu - ray player external firewire and anyDVD Ripper blu - ray to my AppleTV conversion. In most cases, this works very well. until I need to transfer a big file (10-30GB) on the host system, in this case, Mac OS x 10.5.6. If I try to drag / move, has the transfer eventually times out. If I try to go in a shared folder, the same thing happens. If I connect a 500GB drive usb external drive formatted in FAT32 and 450 GB of free space and try to transfer directly on the hard disk inside the guest operating system, abandonment of merger, immediately say there is not enough space free, but as mentioned, there are a lot of free space on the disk. The - only - way I have found to join these big files the host operating system is to copy on my NAS via CIFS Server, then back on to welcome addition-A BATCH - transfer times to an already long conversion operation. If this file transfer configuration can be fixed, I'm ready to sign up for merger. Otherwise, I may have to check Parallels.

    You said ' until I need to transfer one of the great (10-30GB) "and you can not create a file more than (2 ^ 32)-1 bytes (it's one byte less than 4 GB) on a FAT32 partition.  So if minimum file size is that you said earlier "10 GB" you cannot use a volume formatted FAT32 to transfer the files, but you could use a volume formatted NTFS to transfer the files and write directly to this heartbreaking disk.

    Or you need to transfer directly through a connection network between the host and the guest not to use shared folders on VMware but a SMB/CIFS.

  • Identify the best way to transfer data between applications in Essbase

    Hello Experts,


    One of my clients uses Hyperion System 9.3.1 and they try to understand if the partitioning might be a way to automate the transfer of data between applications Essbase (using the partitioning of replication).

    The challenge, they say, is that they may need to send the budget a source application (SLVQ) data to an application (consolidated) target. Data can be changed in Conso and returned to the SLVQ for review.

    They get warnings when they define partitions in both directions because the partitions are overlapping, but it works.

    Are there concepts or reasons why they should not use this function (transfer in both directions)? Is this something that is used by other companies?

    Their alternative is to export data in text file, then reload with rule files. It seems more difficult to define (MaxL scripts-> text files-> rules of files) with more chances of getting errors. Is there some other effective solutions which we do not understand?

    Please suggest.

    Thanks in advance

    Kind regards

    Hi Lisa,
    other than the scores, text file
    There are two more, according to my knowledge

    1 XREF
    2 HAL (Hyperion Application Link) using adapters essbase

    We use the XREF and HAL to our company to transfer data between applications according to the needs.
    I hope this helps.

  • Mini Mac server - attachment of external hard drives file transfer speed

    Hi guys!

    I wanted to increase the speed and storage capacity to transfer to my Mac mini file, so I bought a box of external hard drives. The one I bought is: http://www.icydock.com/goods.php?id=219

    Built-in the Mac mini hard drives transfer the file to 60 MB/s (writing and reading) and I wanted to get better speed of file transfer, so I bought an SSD that is going to be inside with an another HARD drive of 3 TB for archiving my files. The housing is connected by USB3.0 (5 Gb/s) for the Mac mini.

    [SSD-> files I opened every day] - speed around 550 MB/s write and 500 MB/sec in reading

    [HDD-> Archives, files that I have does not open very often] - speed around 150 MB/s write and 150 MB/sec in reading

    So I did some benchmarks on my new Setup, and the speed is not really what I expected. Transfer of file max speed I have achieved is about 100 MB/sec in writing on the external SSD plugged into the mac mini. This transfer has been filed since an iMac 21 "2011 with an SSD (with almost the same speed read/write than the box) so it's quite disappointing.

    It is possible that the Mac has a 'file transfer speed limit' is somewhere? Or whatever else that could affect that?

    More information on my setup:

    Mac Mini server 2012 - 2 TB RAID 1 - Mac OSX 10.9.5

    iMac 21 "2011 - Crucial SSD 275 Gb - Mac OSX 10.9.4

    IcyDock external enclosure - 4 bays, USB3 5 Gb/s

    -Red WD HDD 3To

    -Crucial SSD 1 TB

    Together internal Gigabit Ethernet network

    Thank you!
