I tried to use Filezilla and Cyberduck for file transfer over a simple FTP server. The problems I have is: • Filezilla: When I use it for file transferring, I check the 'Activity Monitor', the '% CPU' usage is like 150% - 200%. I was shocked. My mac start to become lag, so I stop it. • Cyberduck: When I download a folder from ftp, about 60mb, inside have small files (*.php, *.jpg etc).
Download: Osx Binary File Compare. Binary File Compare. Binary File Compare allows you to binary compare a group of files. It help you to binary compare a group of files. Given directory and filemask. Binary comparison can be done. A class that gathers file information recursively by directory.
It took about 8 hours to download the files(there is a time indication of how much time left in cyberduck). If I use filezilla, it only takes about 1-3 mins.
I notice, when using Cyberduck, it keep setting the permissions first, not really transfer the files directly. And it took quite long. Thus, I went to google, and I found that mac can use Terminal to connect to ftp server and download files. Ftp hostname mget * (download all the files) Now, another problem, let say, in my ftp I have: - blog(folder) - php(folder) - img(folder) - others folder I want to download 'blog' and its subsequent folders and files. Can I do it in 1 command line? If no, how do you download my 'blog' folder? I remember in unix/linux command, there is something like this: - remove -R blba which remove the folder blba recursively (its subsequent folders and files), I wonder if mac's terminal ftp command can support this.
Please advise. The curl program could help you download an FTP file, but it specializes in one-off URLs (http, ftp, etc). It is possible to use Perl to script something up to list then download, but its much easier to use wget!
However, wget is not a standard program of OSX so you will need to manually download, compile, and install it (relatively easy task, as long as you have Xcode installed.) •. • • Open a Terminal into the directory you saved the source. Run the following commands: $ tar xfvz wget-latest.tar.gz $ cd wget-* $./configure && make The wget binary will be produced in a src subdirectory. From here you can run the binary directly as./src/wget or install into /usr/local/bin: $ sudo make install Now, you only need to run wget -r and your FTP site will be recursively downloaded from that path!
Re: Having problems uninstalling CS3 on Mac OS 10.6.8 Jeff A Wright Oct 19, 2012 11:41 AM ( in response to umon ) Yes there is a chance running the cleaner tool can affect your other Creative Suite installations. Adobe Creative Suite 3 and CS3 point products include an uninstaller on Windows and Mac OS. If you want to remove the suite or an individual product, use the uninstaller. Don't manually delete application folders by dragging them to the Recycle Bin (Windows) or Trash (Mac OS). Launch the Adobe Acrobat X Pro installer. Follow the prompts to install it into the Applications folder at the root of your hard disk. Double-click the Adobe Acrobat Pro application and after Acrobat launches accept the license agreement. Uninstall adobe acrobat mac. To safely uninstall on Mac OS X, double-click the product installer in Applications Utilities Adobe Installers. Authenticate as an administrator, then select Remove Components and follow the on-screen instructions.
Just remember that the /path/to/download is relative to the username you login with. And FTP passwords are notoriously unsecure:).
How to Use FTP from Terminal to Transfer Mac Files By You can use FTP to transfer files from your Mac OS X Snow Leopard computer with an FTP server by using the command-line interface (CLI); to use the CLI, open a Terminal, or shell, session. To use a Terminal session, double-click the Terminal icon in the Utilities folder inside the Applications folder. When you open a Terminal session, you’re presented with a window that accepts text commands. You’ll see a prompt that consists of your computer’s name and the folder that you’re currently in, followed by your user ID.
