• Can't free up space for Sierra install

  After downloading mac os Sierra, I started to install it. I forgot to check my disk space. now I'm stuck in this message:

  Mac OS could not be installed on your computer - there is not enough free space on - to install.

  I tried to go into safe mode. no luck just a white screen. tried to erase some files in the terminal it says that it is read-only. tried to change the permissions chmod 777. no change. I don't know what to do.

  Hi Hzmajin,

  Thank you for downloading Mac OS Sierra! I understand that you are now stuck in the installation due to a lack of disk space on your Mac. Great way to try to start in safe mode to resolve. Given that it did not work, I start up your Mac in recovery then try a reinstall of the OS X earlier if possible. If you made a back up with Time Machine, you can restore the Mac since this backup or you can use to clear the drive completely and then reinstall OS X. After you upgrade to Mac OS Sierra, you can then manually restore your data from the backup of your Mac. If you do not create a back up before you tried to upgrade and archive and reinstall does not work, try using target disk Mode to access the disk drive on the Mac and remove the unwanted data in this way. The links below will help you with the suggestions I provided.

  How to reinstall OS X
  

  OS X can be installed on the same version or an earlier version of Mac OS X, without deleting your data. You don't need to remove or disable the existing system first.
  Boot to OS X Recovery now command-r immediately after start-up or you restart your Mac. Release the keys when you see the Apple logo. Start-up is finished when you see the OS X Utilities window.

  If you do not want to wipe your drive before reinstalling OS X, open utility disk from window OS X Utilities, and then use disk utility to erase the drive. Quit disk utility when done.
  Erase the disc is not necessary unless you transfer your Mac to a new owner, the partitioning of your drive for use with Boot Camp, or attempt to solve the problem as disk utility cannot repair.

  Choose to reinstall OS X OS X Utilities window, and then follow the instructions on the screen.
  This installs the latest version of Mac OS X, which has already been installed on your Mac.

  Restore from a backup

  If you have a Time Machine backup of your Mac, you can restore this backup the OS X. This erases the disk you restore, then replace everything on this disc with OS X and other data from the backup. To continue, OS X Recovery starting, then choose restore from the backup Time Machine and follow the instructions on the screen.

  Share files between two computers with target disk mode

  These steps should help you in obtaining Mac OS Sierra installed on your Mac with success. Please use the Apple Support communities to post your question. Have a great day.

• Can I retrieve a deleted document after emptying the Recycle Bin?

  Can I retrieve a deleted document after emptying the Recycle Bin?

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/freeware/system/fwdatarecovery.html (first try Recuva)

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/DiskDigger.html (try this second - if it still doesn't work the chances of recovery are very slim, but we invite you to try the other options to see if they work better)

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/easusdfr.html

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/restoration.html

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/downloads/Recuva/dlrecuva.html

  http://www.SoftPerfect.com/products/FileRecovery/

  http://techpaul.WordPress.com/2008/06/23/how-to-recover-your-lost-files/

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

  Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• Problem writing files in the shared documents directory.

  Hello

  I'm new in the development of the PlayBook. I am trying to create an application that can save image file within the shared documents directory (so another image viewer application can find). Here is my code:

  var file:File = File.documentsDirectory;
  /////////////////////////
  Try to write a file...
  var jpgEncoder:JPEGEncoder = new JPEGEncoder();
  var jpgData:ByteArray = jpgEncoder.encode (bmp);
  file.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onFile_SaveComplete);
  leader. Save (jpgData, filename);

  I got a file save dialog box when I call «file.save (...)» However, once I typed in the name of the file to save and press the 'OK' button, I got the exception like below:

  Error #2044: Unhandle IOErrorEvent:. Text = Error #2038: file IO error.

  to flash.filesystem::File$/getFile()

  to flash.filesystem::File$/get_documentsDirectory()

  .....

  .....

  The same code run perfectly on my desktop, so I wonder if there is some other restriction in OS PlayBook to stop me from saving the file in the shared document directory? So, should I sign my application with certificate?

  [I read the document and understand that 'File.documentsDirectory' must be writable...] May I have I'm misunderstanding... ? ]

  Best Rergards,

  Hey,.

  Welcome to the forums! This has just been discussed in a previous thread of yesterday. Basically, file navigation dialog boxes are unfinished and lead erros weird whenever you try to use a method that requires a browse dialog box. work around right now must use the FileStream class to write your files on the hard disk of the playbook, until all the dialogues are fixed on the platform.

  Here is the link to the previous thread. inside, you will find the work around the code that you can adapt to your needs. also, there is a little more explanation:

  hope that helps. Good luck!

• How tio changes the programs installation directory, I want to install?

  How tio changes the programs installation directory, I want to install? I'm trying to install a lot of programs is always installed in "Local disk C" that low memory space. Please tell me how can I install the programs in other folders such as "Local disk D and E and F.

  Win needs 15% free space for proper operation.

  Using various hacks registry posted on various sites to redirect the default program installation folder to another drive is not supported by MS and can cause problems.

  Most of the programs when you install them have the option for a custom install, where you can specify where / which drive to install, but not all programs have this option. Even if you install a separate drive various files/folders will be written on victory drive.

  If the drives D, E & F are separate partitions of a disk, you will need to modify/extend partition in win

• Models of DW: 'this document uses the following files not in this site.

  I recently started using DW templates in CS6. It was a bit frustrating at first, but seems well wouth it. I've created quite a few pages in the folder root of hares and have no problems there. However, I created a new folder to a different section of my site (mysite.com/new_folder/new_page.htm), and then went to save a new page of the model and got the message "this document uses the following files not in this site. Its the same site, just a new folder which is placed at the root.  When I save the page in the new folder there to make a copy of duplicant images, css scripts and place them in the new folder to work? Must be a way to do it and have DW know where to find the original files surely?

  Thank you

  I downloaded a test page... It turns out that the 'message' was just misleading and all the Info page has correct links. Everything is good

• My Documents is empty

  I was to be transferred to a new laptop using XP Professional on both machines.  After completing the files and Settings Transfer Wizard and applications reinstalled, etc, I noticed that nothing had appeared in the My Documents folder, set apart from the sub folders (but they were empty) and folder icons were "attached" circular arrows  Manually, I copied the contents of My Documents to the new laptopm, but had to stick to My Documents by following the path on the C: drive.  Once there, they were still not visible from the link of My Documents at the top of the list of folders in Windows Explorer.
  Someone at - it ideas?
  Thanks in advance.

  Thank you.

  The problem was actually a problem with the synchronization of files with MS Small Business Server.  I still don't understand all the details, but C:\Documents and Settings\\My Documents is not what is synchronized, and although I had copied the files to this place that they did not show in the 'direct' version of My Documents (which is what is synchronized).

  Someone just spend more than a day to reconfigure the laptop and SBS and it works now, I think.

  Thanks again.

• How can I specify the installation directory for the packages installed on Windows clients?

  This article (Creative Cloud help |) Create or modify packages) mentions that you must specify the installation location on the command line in Windows for CC packages:

  
  

  Installation location

  The Application Manager offers you the following options for the deployment location:

  • Deploy to the default directory of the application: The default player is system unit; the default path is \Program Files in Windows/applications under Mac OS.
  • Directory to specify when the deployment: Allows users to end to specify the installation path when the package is deployed. On Mac OS, users are invited on the user interface, while on Windows, it's a command-line only option.
  • Specify directory: enter the path to the location to a specific installation location

  I have chosen "Specify the directory for the deployment" when I built the package.  I also added parameters for deployeur batch of Exceptions (Creative Cloud help |) Using Adobe deployeur Exceptions) indicating the installation location for the exceptions.

  How to access the command line options during install?

  • I tried setup.exe /?, and setup.exe -?, and the installation continues straight on the pilot of c: (small SSD drive; need to install on the 1 TB SATA drive on the HP workstation).
  • I looked for the MSI command line options, and there is not to change the installation location.

  There is a post somewhere that explains it?  I had no luck with my research in the forums on the web.

  When the "Specify the deployment directory" configuration is selected then you may need to use a deployment tool to deploy this package and need to call for the installation .msi.

  I hope that under Microsoft section can help. It has all the command line to install msi.

• models and documents/directory local css

  I have reviewed the documents and technical notes online, but somehow missed how to do the following with the models.
  
  < root > (global.css)- + - < dir1 > (local.css), page1.htm, page2.htm...
  ................................ |
  "... +-dir'n ' > (local.css) page1.htm, page2.htm...
  
  I can't understand how to create a model that connects two of the global, site wide, css and a local, a specific directory, css.
  
  "" < LINK href = "... / global.css ' type = text/css rel = stylesheet >
  "< LINK href="./local.css "type = text/css rel = stylesheet >
  
  I tried a bunch of different ways, but the model application process changes the local directory to point to non-existent files in the Templates directory. I am looking for a way to block the binding of path in the model and it remained unchanged by the process of model when applied.

  If you set the href of the link external css editable, you
  don't have to remember to put it when you make a new page of the child.

  It will use the default value that you set when you created the combo box.

• iMac running HOT after Sierra installed

  Someone at - he had a problem or noticed that their Mac running hot since the installation of Sierra?

  In addition, 2 days ago, I got a notice that I had short-term memory application and iTunes and Safari have been paused. It was not all applications running overnight and I have 20 GB of RAM and it showed 18,86 GB have been used. I had to basically force iTunes and Safari to close, and then restart the iMac to free the memory and be able to access the computer.

  Never had these problems before the Sierra has been installed. The iMac never ran "to hot' (more than 121 degrees last night - due close to refresh it).

  So if anyone ran into any of these questions or knows a solution I would be very happy.

  Thank you
