Scratch the full disc: where temporary files are stored?

Hello

I just tried to open some files very large image (9 GB total) and when I did I got the message "zero a full disc. Now I understand why, that's happened, but it seems to have eaten a bunch of disk space that's not coming back. I closed since photoshop, rebooted my Mac, etc., but about 10 GB is still used where it wasn't before. I can't locate all temporary files anywhere (prefs only tells me that the scratch disk is my Mac HD, not the files, it's in). Can someone help me with this? Where are the temporary files Ps usually located on a Mac? I need these 10 Go back!

Mac OS x running Photoshop CS3

Thank you!

Photoshop removes all scratch files remains when it launches and disassociates them when they are created so that they will automatically get deleted if the application crashes.  You should not be able to see them at all.

You have something else to fill your disk.

If your scratch disk is set to the OS boot volume, do not forget that the BONE will fill up space for virtual memory, and more exchanges of scratch your Photoshop files.

  • Where the license DRM for music files are stored

    Hello.

    I received an email from moduslink yesterday, they will ship vista in max. 3 weeks ;-) I wonder when I'll get it? But I found something else, I'd like to know:

    on the laptop with Windows XP pre-installed, there was these pre-installed music files (shared documents folder) with different music etc..

    I copied these files on my desktop-pc computer and (of course) the music is not played due to the absence of DRM-rights... (btw: I really hate this kind of thing DRM!)
    WindowsMediaPlayer 10MS on my desktop pc tries to download these DRM files, but cannot get a connection to a server. Probably because, I suppose, the right DRM of these songs is only stored locally somewhere on the laptop.

    On the laptop I have MediaPlayer 11 installed (I didn't want it, but I clicked OK for an update of WMP10 and did not know that it is just the upgrade to 11...).

    OK, with 11 WMediaPlayer, I guess, I can't save my license... files? ! ?

    Are the license files of these music titles stored somewhere on the hard drive? and where?
    Therefore, it would be best just to copy these files from my desktop pc license.

    I don't know if there is the same music-files included with Toshiba-Express-Vista-set at level - Programm (?)
    , so I want to store (including DRM files) on the desktop pc and then paste them to the laptop.

    you have a few tipps?
    Thank you, goodbye, kai

    Hello

    To my knowledge the DRM files has nothing to do with the operating system. The mp3 files must run on XP and Vista, but you know...
    I m not a music license expert ;) and can only suggest

    However, I studied a little on the net and it seems that the DRM files are stored
    in Windows 2000 and Windows XP in this folder:
    drive: \Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM

    In Windows 98 and Windows Millennium Edition (Me)
    drive: \Windows\DRM

    If you can't find the DRM folder, the exact location of the DRM folder on your hard disk is stored in the following entry in the Windows registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DRM\DataPath

    That's all what I found, but if you want to get more info on the DRM please check this Microsoft Knowledge base article:

  • After a restore to the factory settings, where personal files are?

    I recently had a problem on my laptop (gateway) that prevents Windows to boot the system.  I went through the automatic tests on splash screens.  Files were good, the disk check was good, went to a restore point, but still was not able to start.  I got a message that there was no specified "configuration change".  So I chose the option to restore factory settings.  I didn't need a disk to do - it took place without no boot disk required.  There was a message related to the restoration who said that my files could be stored on the hard drive partitioned part.  I couldn't get to my personal files anyway, so I decided to take the chance to do the restore and hope that Windows would save my stuff.  Well, Windows is running, but I can't find my files.  The page of my computer shows 2 hard drives, 'Local' and 'Recovery', but I don't know how to access recovery or if my files are still there.

    Is there a chance that my stuff is still in this machine, or I'm just the GROUND?

    Thanks in advance for any kind souls who can solve the riddle!

    Hello

    "Recovery" partition will be the software that was used to perform the recovery to factory settings.

    We should never touch except to make recovery disks, failure of hard disk for you to reinstall Vista on a new hard drive.

    Windows does not save your data when you perform a restore to the factory settings.

    Your recovery software factory settings is provided by the gateway.

    It is an Option in their software.

    It is the gateway to this topic information.

    "Restoration with automatic data backup.

    http://support.gateway.com/s/software/MICROSOF/Vista/7515418/7515418su532.shtml

    All files and existing files are copied to the C:\Backup folder on the hard drive and a new copy of Windows is installed.

    You will need to contact Gateway Support and ask them where to find your data saved their recovery process if the information above did not save where gateway said it would.

  • Scratch the full disc - need advice on disks

    Hello

    I have a brand new installation of i5 Intel Core with 8 GB of RAM and a 300 GB HARD drive. Full specifications below:

    • ASUS P7P55D-E Pro
    • Intel Core i5 750
    • 8 GB Corsair Dominator PC12800 1600 MHz DDR3 (more fan)
    • NVIDIA Quadro FX1800 768 MB
    • Corsair TX650 PSU
    • Antec 300 case
    • WD Velociraptor 300 GB
    • Samsung F2380 23 "monitor
    • Wacom Intuos4 graphics tablet

    I use the WD Velociraptor 300 GB, 10 000 RPM drive as a single drive on this computer. There are currently 150 GB free. The reason why I had such fast propulsion was to deal with large files and boost, loading time.

    I get the error "scratch disk is full" when you try to open a .psd file - 4.3 m x 2.4 m, 150 dpi CMYK and is about 173 MB. Also, I noticed that the 150 GB remaining fills.

    So, my questions:

    1. Should I think about getting an extra drive?
    2. If so, a reader scratch must be fast or if the disk with the operating system should be faster?
    3. I have WD 2 x 500 GB disks that I can transfer to this computer - it would be good in a RAID0 array?
    4. How much space work disk would I need to deal with the bigger files? I have some that are several GB in size, but never had this problem of scratch disk before, even on the previous system, which had only 2 GB of RAM.

    Well, you will need more free space on your hard drive.

  • Where the imported video files are stored?

    Hello

    Just changed CPF to PP. I know not to expect differences between the two programs, but I can't understand where PP stores its images in the camera once imported?

    In FCP, you set the images to be captured in a Capture folder on a disk to work.

    I have imported a lot of sequences now but do not know where the files are stored on the disks?

    Can anyone help please?

    Thank you

    You must transfer the files from your power off on your hard disk before ingest via the media browser in first.

    The only thing that makes the first is links to these files. Also first does not move the files.

    They are always in the same place when you place on your computer.

  • After you run a PC Optimizer program, it is strongly recommended that you register and use the full version of Optimizer Pro, are - this a comeon?.

    After running a PC program optimizer it tells me how many there are mistakes and States: completely optimize and clean your computer, it is strongly recommended that you register and use the full version of Optimizer Pro, are - this a comeon?.

    "is this a comeon.

    Yes, a very common scam.
    As suggested Palcouk avoid "optimizers". Also to stay away from on the 'free' online virus scans, analyses of driver, registry cleaners and something similar who wish to access your machine in real time.

    For the most part all you need is to run Windows Disk Cleanup and do a casual drive defragment (don't defragment SSDS so, single drive type hard disks).
    For something a little more thorough you can use CCleaner (but do not use the registry cleaner - not necessary or desirable) CCleaner is open source (free).
    And if you need a bit more disk space to uninstall the software, you do not use.

  • Cannot find the default folder named temporary file where downloads get automatally sent to download.

    I have an acer aspire one.  It stops on its own and won't stay on.  Sometimes it turns on but the screen does not do anything, but the backlight.  I'm on the view of web acer and found my exact problem.  I need to load the BIOS update and install it.  I tried to doload, but the file went in a folder called temporary files automatically.  I can't find temporary file anywhere to open the BIOS download. can someone tell me where is hid it temporary file that Vista uses to default downloads?
    my name is tom.  Thank you

    There is no default location for downloads - usually the location is selected when you click on the "Save" button and then you know exactly where it is.  I guess because you know the name of the file you downloaded.  We will do a COMPLETE system for the file search and then we'll find out where he went.  If it does not find the file, then download has failed and should be tried again (this time trying to pick the location where it will be saved).

    To search for the folder C: whole disk in Vista go to start / search and type in ' or '. As you type, you'll see two hyperlinks appear just above where you type and we'll search everywhere.  A click on it.  Who will do a fast indexed search and bring up a dialog box.  Click on advanced search.  Click the drop-down location and find the C: drive and click on it. Check the box "include not indexed, hidden and system files (might be slow).»  Then click on search.  You will now search your entire hard drive to the specified file.  And Yes, this isn't a very effective way to search the entire disk for a file but it is how it is done in Vista.

    If this does not work, then try to search for temporary files (you are of course on the name - it doesn't seem right to me) which is probably the name of the folder where it was sent using the same process as above and see if you can find it.  If more than one rises, see each one until you find your file.  If it is through Internet Explorer, and then see the following for the location (although I am not sure if this is the place for which you're searchinng): http://www.milincorporated.com/a2-temporary-internet-files.html.
