OS10.10.5 adding files to hardrive problem

I went to add files to my Macbook Pro hard drives (1 internal and 1 external) from a USB, but when I drag ANY file to ONE of the players I've got the following msg

Cannot move the element "whatever" because "name of the disk, try to pass to ' is not editable.

Never seen this before and the ONLY way I see to add the disk is hitting authenticate then add my user password and only the will SO it allows me to copy files to the disc, but only once so I do that WHENEVER I copy a file...

Just to be sure I ejected the disk and plugged on my MacPRO and am able to add files. Is there a setting on my MacBOOK pro that does this?

anyone?

Reset user - file property See post by Linc Davis

You may need to restore the permissions on your user account. To do this, start on your recovery partition (hold down the command and R during startup) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In the Terminal, type: 'resetpassword' (without the), press return, and then select the admin user. You do not have to reset your password. Click the icon of your Mac hard drive at the top. In the list box below, select the user account that has problems. At the bottom of the window, you will see a box labeled restore Home Directory permissions and ACLs. Click the button to reset there. The process takes a few minutes. When you're finished, restart.

  • I have to remove the duplicate files, but having problems by selecting more than one file in the player at the time.

    I have to remove the duplicate files, but having problems by selecting more than one file in the player at the time. How can I select multiple files at the same time so I can just delete them. I used to be able to do this in previous versions of Media Player, but this function seems now blocked or unavailable. The problem is this: through previous use of media player, it plays all my multimedia files several times whenever a device support has been added. He would try to save the files on my main drive, but since there is not enough room this would save the files somewhere else. This happened several times, I suppose, because when I upgraded my computer and a media scan was conducted he found duplicates of all my media various times of at least 6-8. I've consolidated since my plates on 3-disc multi to, but have now records duplicated hundreds and thousands of duplicate media files. Previous versions of Media Player would allow me to select all files and then delete them both of the reader, but also from my hard drive. So now I'm stuck with more than 300 GB of duplicate media I have to search line by line through all my hard drives to find each duplicate both, unless I can get media player to do what it can. Any help in this area would be appreciated.

    Hello

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. is Windows media player files in double creation during playback of music files?

    To delete duplicate entries, click on another feature tab in the drive (for example the current playback), and then click library.

    If this does not remove duplicates from your library, you can use the Add to library dialog box to search computer to analyze a file on your computer the duplicate entries not valid-pointing. The player will remove invalid entries in your library that point to files that no longer exist in the folder.

    Complete the steps above for files that are stored in the hard disks.

    Method 1: Use the add to Library dialog box search for computers

    (a) start Windows Media Player.

    (b) press F3 on your keyboard to open Add to the library of the find computers dialog box.

    (c) click the Browse button to locate the folder on your computer so that your library contains invalid entries. Specify the location of the folder in the box look in.

    If you are not sure what duplicate in your library entry is not valid, you can add a path column to display in your library. Specify the folder on your computer that corresponds to the path not valid file displayed in your library.

    (d) click on the Search button.

    The player will search for digital media files and playlists in the folder that you specify and remove invalid entries in your library that point to files that no longer exist in the folder. If not valid in double entries point to other folders on your computer, repeat this procedure, specify a different folder every time.

    If only a small number of duplicate entries exist, you can delete those invalid manually by right-clicking on the invalid entry, and then clicking Delete .

    For large double-number of entries in your library (or if all your library is duplicated), it might be better to create a new library and delete the files.

    Method 2:

    After you remove the duplicate entries, run the troubleshooting of Windows Media Library settings to solve this problem.

    Open the troubleshooter in Windows Media Library

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-Windows-Media-Player-library-Troubleshooter

    Let us know the results.

    I hope this helps.

  • Adding file to a jpeg file information affects quality?

    If I add only some info file to a JPEG (no photo editing), it alters the quality of the picture? As if I put only in a description for the file of information on...  Photoshop will understand that I changed only the information about the file and not the photo itself?

    Added information about the file will not affect the quality of the jpeg, as long as you file > save it after you have added the info file. I recommend adding file information in Bridge so you don't have to save in Photoshop. Simply select the photo of Bridge, choose file > file Info, add your info and your done without affecting the quality.

    I created folders in the root and Idex.htlm file, but when I ADDED a file to the file, the INDEX or photos. Files HTML moves downwards.

    see you soon,

    I do not think too that you can have the index at the top of the "stack".

    However, you can group the files / folders by Type, Date modified and file size by double clicking on the topic at the top of the File Manager.

  • moving files after computer problems

    The macbook pro that I used for all my homework for a class, died, and now I am forced to transfer files from the hard drive the computer via firewire. I created a website for a class, unfortunately the class is not a class of web, and I don't know much about dreamweaver, just trying to create something simple. However the I don't know that move files outside dreamweaver is a very bad idea, so I am nervous. Is there an easy way to move files without any problem? I am not very practical with the program, so any help would be appreciated. As you can understand, I would like to move the files as soon as possible...

    Copy the folder root DW site and all its contents to a new location.
    Open DW on the new computer. Adjust the site definition to point in the

  • Problem of passage from CS3 to CS4 - adding files to book

    I had a script which worked beautifully in CS3. Now, we moved to CS4 and he refuses to cooperate with me. I tried a solution on the forum, but it does not work for me.

    Creating book

    var myBookFileName = monchemin + custom "Modules/PW.indd";
    myBookFile = new file (myBookFileName);
    myBook = app.open (myBookFile);
    myBook = app.books.add (myBookFile);

    Add the cover page
    myFilename = monchemin + custom "Modules/PW_Cover.indd";
    myFile = File (myFilename);
    myBook.bookContents.add (myFile);

    Add the rest of the personal folders

    ...

    For some reason, when it comes to the bookContents.add statement, it opens a save as dialog box. I wonder if there is a setting in InDesign CS4, rather than a script problem.

    I would really have no idea.

    B

    Looks like you are trying to add a document in CS3 in a new book of CS4. InDesign wants to save the CS3 CS4 document and therefore gives you the Save as dialogue box. You can go through all the existing CS3 documents you want to add and save out them of CS4, or add a few lines of the script that will do it. (Change the name of the variable I used if it is used elsewhere in your script.)

    // Creating book
    
    var myBookFileName = myPath+"Personalized Modules/PW.indd";
    myBookFile = new File( myBookFileName );
    myBook = app.open( myBookFile );
    myBook = app.books.add( myBookFile );
    
    // Add the front cover
    myFilename = myPath+"Personalized Modules/PW_Cover.indd";
    myFile = File(myFilename);
    
    // Save cover document in current version
    myDoc = app.open(myFile,false);
    myDoc.save(myFile)); // will overwrite CS3 file with CS4 file
    myDoc.close();
    
    myBook.bookContents.add(myFile);
    
    // Add the rest of the individual files
    

    I didn't test this code. Let me know if you have any problems.

  • File download video problem

    When I used to click on links to before mp4 files, a popup would show by asking what I want to do with it. now, he opens a new tab and begins playback of video file. I have not added the new plug-ins, but I think that there was an update to Firefox. I was wondering how I can solve this problem. THX!

    Yes, it is a new feature on Windows. If you want to prevent Firefox to play natively MP4s, which basically turn Firefox to the previous behavior, you can pass a parameter under the covers.*

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste the media and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click on media.windows - media - foundation.enabled to change its value from true to false. Not sure if it takes effect immediately when you reload the tab than you or you need to restart Firefox before it takes effect.

    * Technically, this setting controls the use of the code provided by Microsoft for H.264 decoding. MP4s using another form of coding can still play after having reversed this setting.

    I can only imagine that the problem may arise from opening the file in text mode and write on it (0x0A) a line break character: the system can automatically add a CR (0x0D) in order to maintain the standard CRLF. Try opening the file in binary mode instead (fopen with "wb" specification).
