How drive letters are assigned to external drives and file path names?

How drive letters are assigned to external drives and file path names? MyBook is a drive letter (M) when it is connected to my desktop computer and another letter (L) when it is connected to my husbands office, USB key has the same letter, no matter what usb port is used. Is the letter assigned when the file is created and does not change? or is it to the port to which it is connected to? in what computer?

Each computer assigns the player to the first drive letter not used in alphabetical order.  It makes no difference what port it connects to.

WTF.

    Hello knottywolf,

    ·         Have you tried to copy the files from the external hard drive to the flash drive?

    ·         What are the type of files that can be played by your car stereo?

    ·         After a synchronization of devices, have you tried to copy the tracks instead copy the playlist?

    If you are not able to transfer the playlist directly from Media Player, you should try to copy the files to your external hard drive from Windows Explorer and paste them to the USB.

    Thank you

  • How can I specify the options of folders and files to memory cards in LR4?

    Hello!

    I read the sections Set import and file management preferences and settings to specify Auto Import in the manual. But they do not seem to answer my question. Other things that are written about importing files in Lightroom seem to relate only to importing photos to the Lightroom Catalog, that is not my main concern, although I do not want them imported into the catalog as well. But before the pictures can go to the Lightroom Catalog, they need to be improted, in other words copied from the memory card on the local hard drive. In short, all I want is for Lightroom to take over the responsibility of Canon EOS Utility and behave in the same way during the import/copy of the files on the local hard drive. How is Lightroom sets for this?

    I want to just this type of file and folder structure:

    J:\2010_08_02\IMG_0037.JPG

    J:\2010_08_02\IMG_0039.JPG

    J:\2010_08_22\IMG_0372.CR2

    J:\2010_08_22\IMG_0372.JPG

    J:\2010_11_29\IMG_1405.CR2

    J:\2010_11_29\IMG_1405.JPG

    J:\2011_06_17\IMG_2887.CR2

    J:\2011_06_17\IMG_2887.JPG

    ... etc!

    1. let's all start, where the heck can I specify the destination for the new photos folder?

    There is an option called see the import dialog when a memory card is detected under the general tab in Preferences, but there is no option of destination of the file associated with this.

    2. how can I tell Lightroom to leave the original file names as they are (i.e. IMG_2887.CR2) and place them in a new subfolder (i.e. 2011_06_17) in the destination folder (J:\), named after the date of the photo capture (17 July 2011)?

    There are a few options on the management of the files tab in the Preferences, but they do not seem to affect the import of files on the local hard drive.

    3 it maybe should have been the first question really. Lightroom is able to import files from the camera or card to the local hard disk drive at all?

    Of course, I expect to be able to do, but from the looks of him, I'm not too confident in this respect.

    To begin I would just copy my picture files, directly from the camera or a card reader in a destination folder of my choice, in the same way as Canon EOS Utility it. I didn't wat to simply import the files into the Lightroom Catalog and start working with the files directly from the camera or memory card. Hell no! It is not an external drive for the love of God!

    Please advise!

    I think what you want is on the right side of the screen import, down. There is a Destination area. It can be reduced. Just click on the small triangle next to 'Destination' to develop. Everything you need is there.

  • How a Variable are assigned just by being declared.

    Hello

    I'm new here. We use the Oracle 11.2. I have a question of PL/SQL.

    There is code below that takes variables in the DECLARE section and declares the variable v_sum_prcs_end that see you it used in the following select statement.

    Is there WAY TO this variable might have gotten one assignment by default other than NULL if not initialized? This variable is not mentioned anywhere before in this procedure. It is a procedure doesn't not part of a package.
              LOOP
                   <<Execute_Rule>>
                   DECLARE
                   v_sum_prcs_start DATE := TO_DATE ('19000101', 'YYYYMMDD');
                   v_sum_prcs_end DATE;
    
                   CURSOR PRD_DIM IS
                        SELECT *
                        FROM (
                             SELECT *
                             FROM (
                                    SELECT *
                                    FROM PRD_DIM_SRC
                                    WHERE wk_ending_dt BETWEEN v_sum_prcs_end - ((v_row_PRD_DIM_RUL.span_num_wks * 7) - 7 ) AND v_sum_prcs_end
                                    ORDER BY wk_ending_dt)
                             WHERE ROWNUM <= v_row_PRD_DIM_RUL.max_num_wks)
                        WHERE wk_ending_dt > v_sum_prcs_start
                        ORDER BY wk_ending_dt ASC;
    It is in a loop, as you can see, and he get initialized after this. Of course when the loop returns once again, it will have a value, but at the first pass, it is just ZERO? and if so the query returns all rows?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I'm new here. We use the Oracle 11.2. I have a question of PL/SQL.

    Whenever you have any questions, please post a complete script that people can use to recreate the problem and test their ideas. Include a full procedure or ananoymous PL/SQL block, and, if it is a procedure or a function, the code that calls it. Include CREATE TABLE and INSERT all necessary tables for instructions. See the FAQ forum<>
    Simplify the code you post as much as possible. In this case, the problem seems to depend on if or how a DATE variable to get the value before using a cursor. You can probably show only with a slider to 5 lines, without any of subqueries, using the column hiredate in scott.emp, which is widely available, so you don't have to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for her.

    There is code below that takes variables in the DECLARE section and declares the variable v_sum_prcs_end that see you it used in the following select statement.

    Is there WAY TO this variable might have gotten one assignment by default other than NULL if not initialized? This variable is not mentioned anywhere before in this procedure. It is a procedure doesn't not part of a package.

    What you are showing is the DECLARE section. You're not showing how the cursor is open. If v_sum_prcs_end has a value when the cursor is actually used, then you must be giving the value before opening the cursor. (Add a few calls to dbms_output.put_line to display its values at various points in the code.) If there is nothing mysterious past, it will happen in the BEGIN section, which has no validation, and not DECLARE section.

    The only ways I know to which gives a value to a variable in a PL/SQL are:
    (1) using the variable on the left side of the: operator, =
    (2) use it in the clause of SELECT INTO... IN
    (3) if it is an argument, which gives a default value (which is clearly not the case in this issue.)
    (4) use it as an OUT or IN ARGUMENT to another procedure. (This is not really a separate way to set the value, because the procudeure must assign the new value using first 3 methods, or call another procedure that does.)
    Again, if the variable has a value when you open the slider, then I think you're one of the foregoing, before opening the cursor.

    Moreover, why you open a cursor inside a loop? There is almost always a more efficient way to get rid of the loop and do everything in the cursor. Like a lot of work as long as you can in the SQL statement and only use PL/SQL constructs, such as loops, when there is no other choice.

  • How can I access my backup Windows folders and files?

  • External load and give the name of the instance

    I use this code to load and external swf, now how do I assign an instance name for this?

    var eventInitialLoader:Loader = new Loader();
    var eventInitialURL:String = parent ["eventPath" + ie];
    var eventInitialRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest (eventInitialURL);
    eventInitialLoader.load (eventInitialRequest);
    eventOdd_MC.addChild (eventInitialLoader);

    Thanks for the help!

    At a certain point in your code, that you must have a reference to the instance that you want to remove, then you can just do:

    [instance].parent.removeChild ([instance]);

    or set up a table:

    var instanceArr:Array = new Array();

    and when you load a new instance with the charger, do:

    instanceArr.push (myInstance);

    and to access:

    for (var i: uint = 0; i< myinstance;="">

    child var = instanceArr [i];

    (do things with child)

    child.parent.removeChild (child);

    }

  • Why external folder and files not showing in the files Panel?

    I think that I rescued my first external stylesheet to my root folder.  First of all, I've defined a class and under the rule definition and I chose the New Style sheet.  When the "Save Style sheet file as box came I give it a name general external_styles.css and recorded in the working files, save."  Then I set the CSS rule for the class and chose options. Finally, I save the page as a .htm file in the job file and it see the does'nt upward in the files Panel.  I also tried to save the page as a .htm in the folder root and it will not always be displayed in the files pane.

    I have trouble understanding the structures of files.  I'd appreciate any help to explain how to record the first style sheet external as it appears in the Control Panel files, otherwise I understand that I can not edit them or put them on the remote site.

    Hello

    First, you need to consider a logical data structure, it might look like this:

    I utilise.php, you could use *.html so too. Index.HTML is your file with which your site begins. The reference to your specific CSS files, must be given in your DW file, like this:

    It would be fantastic if when save my emails on my computer the file name can be customized to be something different than just the title of the message. As I suggested in the question, if it could be set up to be "date, time, sender, title" that would be great, much assistance during the passage of a .eml files between colleagues, or just simply organize your emails into folders. Is this possible and if yes, how does one?
