  • Files disappeared from LR (deleted?), but has pictures of LR and hard drive. How can I get the folder HD back structure in LR?

    I can be the first person to have ever done that. I don't know what I've done yet. I have spend hours to organize my folders. I had imported them all in the horrible mess that they were (many duplicates, etc.). After obtaining their almost perfect I went to delete what I thought, it was a trash folder. I think I must have accidentally deleted my pictures folder (where they were all stored). Strange is that the catalog has all the 10,000 photos, but I have no file. Not a single one. Not even the HD Mac one. All changes have been made in LR, I know better than to go messing around with something outside of Lightroom. All changes I made to the files are on the hard drive right now. I just need to find a way to find the LR folder structure. However, it won't let me import anything. When I try to add a folder nothing is re-elected under the menu folders. I don't know what to do. Help! I've been throwing these to print photos for a Christmas gift.

    Given that I'm not a MAC person, as far as I know is that this file preference is located in a hidden directory and so you must follow the instructions in the link.

    The user library file is hidden by default on Mac OS X 10.7 and later versions. For temporary access to the file library user, press Option and select go > library in the Finder.

    If you don't want to delete the preferences file, you can rename it instead, and Lightroom will create a new file, preferably when you launch Lightroom.

  • How to delete a picture library "referenced" without deleting the original photos in the application which is used to compensate for my projects?

    I made the mistake of setting up Apple Photos on my Mac Pro using the library option "referenced" (which is where my computer file are not copied in the Photos). However, throughout the year, I started to do the 'projects' in pictures by which I copied some files of original photos in the Photos app. My library is now made up of a mixture of many referenced files and some originals copied into the app.

    Now I did some heavy reorganization and clean up the photos in my computer folder, but obviously none of these changes can be found in the photos referenced in the Photo app.

    My goal now is to started using iCloud Photos but I want to do with a clean slate (i.e. without using one of the current referenced library that I have pictures).

    I have two questions:

    (1) is there a way to Photos to delete ONLY the pictures that are files referenced and not the originals that are copied into the app?

    (2) if the above is not possible, then what happens to my projects if I simply delete all the photos I have in the app? I'll always be able to see the photos of the calendar, that I did for example?

    I'm afraid that if I delete my entire library I will not be able to access my projects more in the future. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can manage this?

    Thank you very much.

    You can consolidate all of the photos that are referenced. If you have used photos referenced in the projects (calendars, books), select the photo in your photo library and use the command "file > consolidate."  This will copy the original referenced in your photo library.

    To find all the files referenced requiring consolidation of create a smart album:

    File > new Smart Album

    Set the constraint for the album 'Photo is referenced.

    Now you have all the photo referenced in an album. You can select the photos in this album and either use ' file > consolidate "to copy in the library or press the ⌘⌫ key combination to delete the picture from the library.

    Before you consolidate or remove a photo referenced, using ' file > reveal in Finder ' to view the original file.  This way you can remove the copy on your disk after you have removed the photo from your photo library.  If the referenced file is left behind, pictures will not remove.

    If you want to use your photo library with iCloud photo library, it is essential to consolidate the pictures referenced, because referenced photos cannot download on iCloud photo library.

  • I saved my adobe files temporarily muse in my computer when I restart my PC I see not the mt files, please tell me how to recover my files and how to record my entire Web site file using save option.

    I saved my adobe files temporarily muse in my computer when I restart my PC I see not the mt files, please tell me how to recover my files and how to record my entire Web site file using save option.

    When you talk about 'temporarily' as record files in the temporary folder and then by restarting the machine will lose files. You can save the file in any location stored as reader or office and then reopen the case should show all of the content without any loss.

    If the files are deleted or lost there's no way to recover those, sorry if this is the case.

  • How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal.

    How can I remove "the folder/Users/user/to/mygame doesn't exist." Terminal. Rises every time I launch Terminal. I am a novice. Thank you very much.

    1. Please select from the menu bar Terminal

    ▹ terminal preferences... ▹ Profiles ▹ Shell

    If the run command box is checked, uncheck it or enter the command to run automatically (if any), each opening of a Terminal window. Note: this is not how you define a default shell.

    2. If step 1 does not resolve the problem, see below.

    Back up all data.

    Select

    New Shell command ▹

    in the Terminal menu bar. Uncheck the box marked

    Run the command inside a shell

    If it is enabled.

    Copy and paste the following line into the text box that appears, and then press return:

    /bin/mkdir disabled_shell_files

    Close the Terminal window that opens. Repeat with this line:

    /bin/mv .profile .bash_history .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc disabled_shell_files

    History Shell and former initialization files will be saved in a directory named "disabled_shell_files" at the top level of your home directory. It is normal that some of these files do not exist, and therefore, you will get error "no file".

    Close the window and open a new test.

    You may already know that files with name starting in '. ' are not visible in the Finder by default. So, if you open the folder that you created in the Finder, it will appear as empty, even if it is not. If you need to recover a portion of the data in the files of the shell, use a shell such as nano-based text editor (1). Make sure that you're not recreating the problem. Otherwise, you can delete the folder.

  • How to delete songs in Windows Media Player 11 duplicate?

    How to delete songs in Windows Media Player 11 duplicate

    Hello

    Method 1:
    I would recommend you to rebuild the database of Windows Media Player and see if the problem is resolved.

    Here's how:
    To resolve this problem, delete the Windows Media Player database. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. exit Windows Media Player.
    2. click on start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
    3. Select all the files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
    Note: You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.
    4. restart Windows Media Player.
    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.
    Method 2:
    If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files.

    To do this, follow these steps:
    1. exit Windows Media Player.
    2. click on start, run, type % LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft, and then click OK.
    3. Select the Media Player folder, and then click on Delete on the file menu.
    4. restart Windows Media Player.
    Method 3:
    When you move digital media files on your computer, the file name and file path information remain unchanged in your library. Then when you select a file to play to its new location, a new entry is created in your library if you select the option automatically added to your library when played. As a result, your library can quickly contain a large number of entries, duplicate or invalid.
    To prevent it be automatically added to your library of music files

    1. in Windows Media Player, on the Tools menu, click Options.

    2. on the Player tab, clear the files of music to add to the library when played check box.

    Now, when you play music on your computer or the Internet, the file will not be added automatically to your library.

    Method 4:
    In the case where the duplicates are not removed:
    There are also third-party applications to do the job. You can search your favorite search engine and download third-party software to remove the tracks in Windows Media Player 12 duplicate.
