[dba-Tech] File Sharing Problem

I find very bizare and have difficults to believe it has something to do
with the orientation of your pictures.


I would advice you to first doe a scan disk on both systems for the
disks in question (source and destination).
If explorer crashes over network it has probably more to do with errors
on the disk or even network problem.

Secondly, if it really has something to do with orientation of the
picture, turn of image preview of the destination folder and subfolders.
Set view in details.
This will avoid Explorer to analyze your picture and create a thumbnail
when copying those files.
If you still get crashes it is imposible due to orientation because
explore does not analyze the picture anymore. I must be disk error or
network error.
Try only copying the files in question and not all files at once.

Hi Ron,

No, I don't think so anyway, the share was set for the entire My
Documents folder - including all it's sub-folders. Below that is the My
Pictures folder and below that I have various sub folders. The one that
seems to be the one most noticed because it has my most recent photos in
it is in a Canon sub folder with sub-folders below that named for the
date the photos were taken. The Canon Upload Wizard adds the date named
folder and puts the picture files into it during a dialog that comes up
when the camera is connected via USB cable.
Nothing I am doing has done anything differently for the photos that can
be copied verses the ones that cannot. I just had a few pictures in a
few folders that caused this error and when i looked into them, I
noticed that every one I had a problem with was a vertical verses a
horizontal picture. At least 90% of my pictures seem to be horizontal so
it only happens in some folders.

I'm thinking that perhaps there is some Canon program that is doing
something with the vertical shots to make them so they appear rotated
correctly for Windows and that is somehow opening the files in a manner
that will not allow them to be shared from outside the system?
I guess I should have a look at the Canon camera site and see if they
have any leads for me.
