Mac question? -Duplicate file names appear once I have copy on mp3s

It seems that although the Compatible Mac box, it was a stretch far from easy to use or Setup for a non techno.

I figured out how to import a CD on ITunes and convert it to an mp3. Then copy it to the "rocket".

But my problem is when I copy a song or an entire album, when I turn on the "rocket", it shows duplicate songs and duplicates are in the Unreconizable folder and do not work.

This can become very confusing. Anyone has any ideas on how to import MP3s on a mac without getting these ghosts / duplicate files?

If I can't understand, I guess I'll try to return it and get an IPod. No use to me like that.

Help, please. I want to keep that player.

Your problem is that you used the Finder to copy files to the player.  Who creates the files 'duplicate' which are really containing of Finder metadata files.  They lead the players nuts.

I wrote a web page describing this problem and how to get an MP3 as the "rocket" to work with the Mac.  See http://guyscharf.wordpress.com/mp3-on-macintosh/ for more details.

  • Restore file sequence # annexed by Win 7 for duplicate file names

    How can I reset the sequence number that Win 7 automatically adds to duplicate file names. I have a file that is sent to me every day with the same folder. Windows adds a sequence # at the end of the name inside ().  This number continues to increase. How can I reset this number in Win 7?

    It will use the first available number in the folder.  If he uses (4), it is because 1, 2, and 3 were already taken.  Delete 'old', or save it in a new folder, and it will start again.

  • No file name appear in a thumbnail view of folders

    I use Windows XP.  In 'My pictures' folders are set up to display them as thumbnails.  For some reason any file names do not appear on records longer.  How this happened and how this can be fixed.  If I right click on the folder it will allow me to change the names of files, but then the name of the folder disappears.  This has happened to each folder in the "My pictures" folder

    The address bar is visible above the window where you see thumbnails of your photos?

    If this is the case, check and make sure that both 'My images' files are in the same place. They are probably, but stranger things happened...

    What happens when you switch to the icons or details? Show file names?

    Also, just to check, you must:

    1. Highlight the folder by clicking once (or by holding your cursor over the file, if you click once to open it).
    2. Hold down the SHIFT key
    3. Click while holding down the SHIFT key
    4. Choose open while keeping the SHIFT key.
    5. Then you can leave the shift key.
  • Question about file names and organization

    Background

    I connected my camera to my iMac and downloaded my photos directly into iPhoto without ever thinking about it. I just thought it was the way to do it.  Now that I began to rethink the organization / structure of how I want to drop my photos I find myself with what to do on all my previous photos.

    Question

    I am wanting to rename all the photos of my real FILE NAME to a certain format that I read recently on the subject, and I wonder about how this topic with all the previous pictures I imported into iPhoto.

    Is my only option to EXPORT all of the photos to a certain spot on my hard drive, rename them and then re - import in the iPhoto library, or possibly create a whole new library?

    I understand that the change of name to a photo in iPhoto does nothing for the name of the file on the computer so I'm looking for all of the options that I might have.

    iPhoto v9.5.1

    iMac 27 end 2009

    OS X 10.9.5

    3.06 GHz Intel Core Duo

    16 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

    Is my only option to EXPORT all of the photos to a certain spot on my hard drive, rename them and then re - import in the iPhoto library, or possibly create a whole new library?

    Yes. It's your only option to change the file names.  But here's the thing: If the photo is in iPhoto, then the file name is not just serious. Not at all. Never.

    So it would be totally useless.

    Replace the title by any means, and then if you move ever leaving iPhoto you can export using the title as the file name.

    I don't know what naming scheme you will think, but be sure that it involves no character ' / '. Avoid colon.

  • Printers Multifunction LaserJet Pro 476DN: Scan to Email - questions of file name

    When scanning to email, files always sent as "Scan.pdf", how can we change it so it includes a code of time as part of the file name?

    Hello

    This cannot be done.

    Since the server integrated Web (which is accessible by typing the printer IP address in your browser), you can open the scan tab and click e-mail Options.

    Of you can change the file name prefix as required, but which do allow use of specific prefix, not a dynamic date and time... those are are included in the email itself and can not be added to the fileame.

  • File name too Long to be copied to the same location on Different drive

    I have Vista 32 bit. I know the limits of length of file name.

    In my computer, I have a USB 2.0 hard drive, called 'J '. I have a Freecom 3 TB hard which the manual says is shown as 2 partitions for compatibility issues. It appears therefore as a partition 'K' and 'L '.

    I have a lot of music on my drive J, located in several subfolders. Number of files have reached the limit on the length of file name. TeraCopy using I'm just copy everything in the root of the drive of J in the root of my partition to 'L '.

    Out of thousands of files, 445 of them were not copied. I don't know the reason, but I guess that this is due to the limits of length of filename which is strange, because if the files are already on the J drive why can't they be copied to the partition of L? It's not like I'm adding a new folder in the partition of L, then put everything in there, I put everything in the root.

    TeraCopy is a button that allows you to see why the files were not copied. However it freezes if clicked, because there are so many files - it works when much less files are copied. I guess they were not copied because of file size limits.

  • The duplicate files that appear in the Explorer window

    I am writing a custom plug-in for a CMS.  I have a problem opening the files in Windows Explorer where each child record is listed twice.  However, every child is a folder is listed only once. This happens for any folder in the CMS.

    View the logs files to my plugin, it seems that Windows lists the contents of all folders, then it can show the hierarchy in the navigation pane.  Then when I click on a folder, it re - lists the contents of this folder.  I believe that it is this second call to the GetChildrenHandler which is originally in car show files duplicate since if I turn off the navigation pane and to clear the disk cache, only one instance of each file appears.  Note: I never get more than 2 bodies even if I re - view folders on a newer.

    I based my GetChildrenHandler after the GetChildrenHandler sample.basicftp.  However, I use 16-byte hexadecimal idenitifiers as asset ID instead of paths. I have in my plug-in intensive logging and that you have verified that when I create the recipe update of the file, the active code, active path, parent ID and active are all identical.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I thought about it.  I'm assigning a version 0 for the first version of each asset.  When I started the version numbering at 1, this problem has been resolved.

  • Question about file names

    I'm new to the Web design; I recently took a job of designing a Web site, and he went up with success. I'm rethinking the entire site, even if, as we were on a time crunch and we have time to come back and do everything the right way now. An odd question that I run upward against, however, is that when the site opens, on the tab of the browser that is supposed to say the name of the Web site, it displays the name of my file instead. Is there a way to fix this in Dreamweaver?

    Well, you will see a small text field in the bar code - Split - Design. In this text box put in the name you want to appear.

    You can also switch to Code view and locate an HTML tag called title and put the name in there

    Name of the Web site here

    I recommend that you learn some HTML and CSS if you are serious about web design. Another thing you must be sure to send a message.

    You can start learning HTML here: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp

    Really lets Dreamweaver, you can see what you're doing but learning that language is very important too.

  • question moveTo file name change

    Hi guys

    If you want to change the case of a filename for example...

    filename.txt

    TO...

    Filename.txt (using moveTo to make this survey a mistake, that the file already exists)

    .. is there no way to do that doesn't involve add arbitrary characters first, or actually make a copy of the file?  for example...

    filename.txt

    TO...

    FILENAME_arbitrary_chars_here.txt

    TO...

    Filename.txt

    ?

    Bravo guys

    I'm not clear on where it comes from, but if you rename a file, thenwhy not rename twice, first to change it to something else, then to change the name you want.  Another option would be to copy the data from the file, delete the file and write the data to a new file with the name you want.

  • This is what google problem or forefox. no example that appears once I have started typing a question

    I have long had only to start typing, and most of the time I could choose from a list that appears below. It has not appeared since I had to download a new version of Firefox. I don't know if it is a problem of Google or Firefox.

    When you type?

    Search box of Firefox search bar (see screenshot) generally has suggestions, but they can be disabled. To do this, you can check by clicking on the 'g' icon to expand the menu drop-down, then choosing Manage search engines.

    If you mean on the site of Google, if Google detects a slow connection, it can turn off the usual 'instant prediction results' research. You can go to Google search parameters and this parameter to be still on the force. https://www.Google.com/preferences

    If the problem is in the address bar of Firefox, which normally makes suggestions of your history and bookmarks, it's different. See: Awesome Bar - find your Firefox bookmarks, history, and the tabs in the address bar.

    Is this one of them?

  • 'File name' error too long when you copy a folder to a DVD disc

    When I copy a folder that contains a large number of files on an external hard drive, I have no problem, but if I try to copy the same folder to a DVD disc, I get a message indicating that a file name is too long.  My first question is why do I get the message for DVD and not the external hard drive?  My second question is: How can I generate a list of files in my folder that have too long names? My second question is already other post on the forum, but there was no answer.  Is it because it is not possible to generate such a list?

    Thank you

    It depends on what is called the 'file system '. File systems are how files are stored on a disk. Many of them have limits on how long the total file path can be. DVD and external hard drives use different file systems.

    If you want a list of all the files in a folder, open a command prompt. Type this in:

    CD "C:\path\to\folder".

    and press ENTER. Replace path\to\folder with the path of the file in your file that you want to check to make sure this filepath is in quotes!

    Now type:

    dir /s > 'output.txt '.

    and press ENTER. This will tell the guest to make a list of all the files in this folder and in each subfolder, and then store in a text file. This will allow you to view the list and I hope to find the long file names. Once you have found the long file name, go to that file, and then change the name.

    Here is an example of the above commands. Let's say I have a folder named "foo" in the My Documents folder. I first type:

    CD "C:\Users\Entegy\Documents\foo".

    and press ENTER. Now, I want the list of files to be placed on my desk. Then I type:

    dir /s > "C:\Users\Entegy\Desktop\filelist.txt."

    And voila, I have a list of all the content of foo on my desktop files. Just make sure that your path ends with .txt and you'll be fine. And don't forget to put quotes around filepaths!
