• Try to copy a folder with subfolders, some don't copy, get the message that the folder names are too long under Windows 7

  Hi, when you try to copy a folder with lots of subfolders, some files don't copy.  I get a message that the folder names are too long, and the only option is to ignore these files.  Anyone know the maximum folder (and also) name length that will copy windows 7?

  Thank you

  Hello
   
   
  a. What are the data you're trying to move?
  b. what operating system (for example Windows files) files?
  c. What is the method that you use to copy data?
   
   
  Windows 7 supports filename up to 260 characters. I would ask you to decrease the characters in the file name and then try to copy the files.
  
  Let us, run disk checking hard disk utility and then check.
  Here's how:
  1. open the computer by clicking the Start button, click computer.
  2. click on the drive you want to check, and then click Properties.
  3. click on the Tools tab and then, under check for errors, click Find now. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  To automatically repair problems with files and folders that the scan detects, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will be a problem, but not to fix them.
  To perform a thorough check, select search and attempt to recover bad sectors. This analysis tries to find and repair physical errors on the disk itself, and it may take much longer to complete.
  To check for errors file and the physical errors, select both automatically fix errors in file system and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.
  4. click on start.
   
   
  Depending on the size of your drive, it may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.
   
  Important: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data can be lost.
   
  I hope this helps.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• Help - just sync Sansa Fuze 4 GB and not selected folder names

  I just sync Sansa Fuze 4 my wife Go with Windows Media Player and folder names are not preserved. It's the folder view using the artist name and it is not how the songs were - they were on the PC as "Classic country" etc. That's happened? I have one without Fuze 2 GB that displays correctly when I sync the files... How can I fix it?  I'll try to redo with her in another mode to USB using windows Explorer to load the files and see if that makes a difference, but why the difference between the 4 GB Fuze and Fuze 2?

  
  

• Any significance to the folder names?

  I have just flashed the new fuse to the latest version of the firmware of my wife.  I changed the mode of meteorological service of the Canada.  Now I'm ready remove all music that came pre-installed on the "rocket" because they are all in MTP mode.  When I delete existing files, it is important to keep the same folders and folder names?

  As if I want to install pictures and video files, they into specifically named folders to read correctly?  If so, what records are crutial for keep?

  The "rocket" will find your content just about anywhere, if folder names are not that critical.  However, content placed in the files of audio books and Podcasts is treated specially.  But no worries, the "rocket" automatically creates the standard for you files if they are missing.

• Folder OSX sort criteria when Dates are used as folder names

  Hello

  I treat and store a lot of pictures in my computer and then, of course, eventually transfer to external storage. I used day/date/year (June 1, 2016) as the format of the folder names. OSX does not sort the folders based on these dates, instead it sorts them according to the number of days (I think). Is it possible to get the Finder to sort according to folder names and come to understand that the names are in fact dates?

  Thank you very much.

  Faurie

  Not that I know of.

  To have the Finder by names of date, you can use the format YYYY/MM/DD (01/06/2016), which is quite standard in accounting, etc..

  Note also that Finder can sort by date of creation, implemented to date and date added timestamps. If you do not see these columns in a Finder list view window, right-click on any column header and check what you want to see.

• Why did LR change my photos imported in a date folder names and moving them to my disc external hard to my C: drive internal?

  I just started using Lightroom version 4.4 recently. I imported my 1 hour and Keywords photos files. I have all my photos on an external drive and my catalog on my drive is internal.

  All my files were remaining on my external drive that I would like but then recently, after keywording a folder full of photos LR would change my folder name on the date the photos were taken and

  export to my internal C: drive. I somehow inadvertently changing a default setting? How can I prevent the LR do this? Help, please. I'm stuck until I can solve this problem.

  It happened because you have not read carefully the import dialog before pressing the button import.

  The next time you import, look at all the parameters and confirm that they are what you want. In this case, you forgot that you said it to copy or move the pictures, when it seems that Add would be the option you want. These are at the top of the dialog box.

• Prefixing 'My' in front of the folder names, Explorer causing bad paths

  I have an external hard drive with three folders and seen in the Windows Explorer, they are named 'Documents', 'My Music' and 'pictures '. After that WMP began failing to find the music on my drive, I removed and added the folder to my library and noticed the road now omitted the 'ma' - 'H:\Music '. Of course, a list of dir in a command window shows not 'My' in front of one of these folders.

  What is the problem? These are not associated with my current user account, but is there some other baggage that makes the names are not displayed correctly? Any suggestion why the Documents folder is not affected in the same way? It has already forced me to recharge my library of music once - should I just change names from folder to something like "Musik" so that Windows don't screw with it?

  Hi pdizzle,

  I suggest you rename the files to my music etc. on the disc.

  If the problem persists then I suggest you scan the computer for malware infections or viruses and remove all infections, check if it helps.

  The scan below only works on the 32-bit version of Windows

• Some folder names to avoid moving message in them

  31.0 running on Windows XP SP3. This is the second time I've noticed this problem but I didn't report one and don't remember the details.

  I created a folder named '_OpenCart' Local When I try to move mail in my Inbox by drag-and - drop or other methods in this case, the mail does not move. No error is generated, the message simply remains in the Inbox and _OpenCart remains empty.

  Change the name of the folder to '_Open Cart' (note the space) solves the problem. Can I change the name back again and again, and when the space is there I can move the mail folder. If I remove the space in the folder name, and then I can't move mail in the folder. The file can be opened and I can read messages that have been put there when the name was "_Open Cart", and I can get out message to other folders, but I can't add more messages in the folder "_OpenCart".

  Thanks, your explanation makes sense and I agree in a perfect world, it should be fixed, but I'm sure that there are more important things to work on.

  I checked the link you provided and I will try to use characters that appear not to cause problems, such as space and the dash force my files frequently used for the top of the list.

  Overall I am pretty happy with TB, much less eccentric than my old Eudora, although I always use up automatic off-mail I don't want to clutter my Outbox.

• General question: which limits the max RAM, you can install? Why is he still limited?

  Hi all

  I have a p7-1254 Pavilion with 8 GB of RAM installed. I thought that perhaps it would be better if I installed 16GB. Then I read the specs of my PC and it says "Supports 8 GB of RAM".

  Why would it be limited? What is the reason RAM gets limited on some PCs?

  Hello:

  You are right. The maximum memory that can be installed in your PC is 8 GB.

  Why is there a limit?

  This is a hardware limitation of the motherboard chipset, or a limitation of the BIOS that cannot be changed.

  Memory is limited to a certain extent in every PC.

  As PC evolves a day 16 GB will be that 2 GB is now.

BUT there is a message saying that I only have a limited number of swaps in the region (and now I go out)

  Issues related to the:

  1. Why is there a limited number of area swaps?

  2. is there a way to get around this limitation? Or I will have to buy a DVD of the entire drive and watch my DVD region 2 on my TV?
