How are you trying to copy them? What steps do you take and what happens when you try it? Under Linux, I see no reason why you can't copy that file. I created a test file like this in the shell (bash): touch "Albinoni concerto%2F1:1. Allegro.ogg" opened my home directory in Konquorer, single-clicked on the file, typed Ctrl-C to copy, moved to another directory and typed Ctrl-V to paste, and the file copied fine. Unless there's a bug in your version of Konq which mine doesn't have, it should be able to deal with file names containing spaces, colons and percent signs easily. If that doesn't work, do you get an explicit error message? If so, try copying the files using bash. Open a terminal, and cd to the directory where the CD is mounted. I don't know what that will be on your system, but it could be something like this: cd /media/DISK say. You could try listing the contents of /media or /mnt to find out for sure where the CD is mounted. Once you have cd'ed into the right place, try viewing the files to ensure they are real files: ls -lh *.ogg Assuming they aren't all zero-length, check that they're readable: hexdump Albinoni*1.\ Allegro.ogg | less ought to do it. If you get a screen full of hex codes like this: 0166bd0 8db8 6716 e0bd 9243 4775 6eb0 9f2c a246 0166be0 c276 8580 d85f 987e 585c fa07 bfe8 4814 0166bf0 b59a 401d 8668 830a 5b35 e56c 670a 27bf 0166c00 53a5 a55b 563b 78de b3c7 69bc 1600 83b7 it looks good. Hit the Q key to exit and try copying the files to a new folder in your home directory: mkdir ~/Albinoni cp *.ogg ~/Albinoni Do the files copy now? If not, what's the error message? -- Steve ---------------------------------------------------------------------
