hello !
i have the following error-message when i try to copy chinese files:

VV-message:
[Can not copy attributes to folder "\\PLEXSTORX1A98\admin\ap\S\S4-China\.....\070628-历史文化名城保护规划\jpg\013历史旧城区研究范围特色街巷分布图.jpg".] Error.

Thanks, can you copy the files using Windows Explorer instead? I wonder if this could be a limitation of the NAS. thanks

hi, thanx for the answer, but this cannot be the solution for "the best" back-up-program, i found on the market to say: use WIN-EXPLORER!

i bought the software just because i need a alternative professional perfect automatic solution! - which, b.t.w. ONLY overwrites changed files!

could you explain me, what the message of vv, i posted before, mean?
maybe i can somehow change the files? which attributes does the programm mean?

thank you

regards stan

Sorry Stan, I did not explain myself clearly. I wanted you to test with Windows Explorer to check if it's a problem related to ViceVersa or the NAS.

Anyway, are the folders with the error marked as read-only or hidden? Those are the attributes that VV is trying to copy. Does the problem only happen with folders with Chinese characters ?

thanks

hello, i found a first problem with -non chinese-files

the cahnged-datum is before the create-datum, however that happened (wrong datum in a mobile pc, i think ???)

look at the screenshot:

file 109 was copied
the other has a wrong datastamp.

is it possible to change all at once (a batch saying: change all "change"-date to "created"-date, or something...)

in the next step i will check the "chinese" files.....there's more to come.

regards stan

hi, some experiments i made are shocking:

when i copy a file wird "changed"-date older the "create"-date, the result is, that the "change"-date is kept a nd the "create-date" is now earlier

original on server win2008: CR.: 2009 CH: 2008

copy on NAS threw vista & winexplorer: CR:2007 CH:2008

the years are examples. it seems, that the nas writes wrong "create"-date or something.

next i will check a copy to the vista-pc itself....

this is a catastrophy, because i habe about 10 gb of files that VV therefore cannot copy at all....

god save our computers! it's 2010.
