Where did my files go?

I just upgraded to Sierra. The former 'user files' seems to have disappeared. As far as I can tell all the files are still there but they have just dumped in a big folder "All Files." I have deliberately never lit storage iCloud because I have my own back ups and only turn it on for this update. But that shouldn't have messed with the filing on my computer system. Folder my documents is the same, but it's the only thing. My folder of images, music, just been thrown into a large bin folder. Is there a way to recover old files as I have years of old photos, documents, files and information that have been duly deposited that are earlier in trouble?

Where are you looking? In the side bar of the Finder?

You may need to enable the folders view again in the sidebar in the Finder preferences.

Click on the Finder Menu, then Preferences. In the preferences panel, click on the tab of the sidebar, and then select the records you want to display in the sidebar.

    "Could not complete your request because of a program error."  pop-up ads to the top when I try and file-> open.  My only work around has been to close and re - open photoshop, constantly.

    * Where a single file bugs or feedback for photoshop? Adobe or not care? **

    I can't find a better location. I saw that someone else posted a discussion Dec. 30, similar issues, so obviously that's not fixed.  In my view, do not open new files to be pretty important function regression. If I open as 10 files when I first open photoshop it's ok, but then when I forgot I need a file, I see this error, the programs are only open 15 minutes, I hardly did anything to cause a program error. I have to close and reopen everything. It is possible to make a new file.

  • To computer new catalog. Where are the files?

    In order to move to a new company, I installed LR on the new computer and find the catalog on the old computer. I copied the complete catalog file and copied to the new computer and set up this catalog as catalog for the new LR. I can see the file structure but next to each folder, there is a question mark and when I right click, there is an option to 'find the missing folder '. So what did I fact? Have I just moved previews without the real files? If Yes, where the actual files would be? Any help is very appreciated.

    Thank you

    Looks like you did not move the photo files. Here again on the old computer, anywhere where you have stored the (or anywhere where you headed Lightroom to store). The name of the actual file can be seen in the metadata Panel of the Lightroom library Module, it corresponds to the location on the old computer. To move photos to new computer, keep the hierarchy of unchanged files, move everything to the new computer and put the pictures in the same place exactly as on the old computer (if it were to d:\my pictures on the old computer, put them in d:\my pictures on the new computer). If you can not put the photos in the exact same on the new computer, keep the same hierarchy and re - link in Lightroom via these instructions: Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

  • Stop asking 'where's the file

    Hi all!

    I'm new and this is my first post! I use different versions of PE for years and is currently working with 8. It took me years to get to a level of video production that I would consider decent. I guess I'm a mind slow but seem to go a little better every time! One of the things that I have not been able to understand is how to get the hang of the program ask me where a certain file or files are when you open a project. I find that it is easier for me to reuse them or copy and rename an existing project file to avoid from any new together fresh ups every time. But when he does that it is always looking for files that I used once, but want more and I deleted from their original location. I just click on "Skip all" every time, but this can get annoying after awhile. I tried to empty the cache memory and even archiving projects, but he always asks me every time. Did someone knows a way so he can stop asking me this at least until I remove a file from its location again? Is there some hidden cache or something?

    Thanks for any help!

    Jim

    If you deleted the files on your computer, they will appear in your panel of project/media as a two-headed arrow, indicating that it is no longer a connection

    Simply select each (or more), right click and select Delete to permanently remove it from your project and you get those annoying messages 'find' next time you open.

  • Premiere CS4 Version 4.2.1 - where is the file "name"?

    I have my video files on a HDD that I connect to my laptop. My project files are on the laptop. I was able to work with the files for a long time without any problem. Today, I get the question 'Where is the file?' and I don't want to spend many hours to find all files, when I do not know why this happens so it could happen again. I first thought that first got confused with the drive letters, because I got a UPS Flycard network connector, but I rebooted the computer without it and you have the same problem. How can I let first find the files again and why did this happen?

    Well, this majority often occurs when the operating system assigns a letter of new/different hard drive. You can adjust the set outside of the operating system drive letter. Don't know your "flyback" card so don't know don't not how it might affect things. What is the current drive letter, and which was initially assigned?

    With PrPro, simply locate the "missing" first, when we ask him, and the program will then connect to all other assets in this folder. If you have assets in several files, you will need to do this for each folder containing assets for this project. The function of this form of dialogue will prove very useful.

    I would be the first release of PrPro (do not choose offline, ignore, etc. and then save the project file), discover the drive letters and set externally to what was initially awarded.

    Good luck

  • where is iWeb files store in OSX El Captain v. 10.11.2?

    where is iWeb files store in OSX El Captain v. 10.11.2?

    Can not find any directory under the "Library - Application Support" iWeb as suggested a few comments on the internet.

    Furthermore, can someone advise how to download the web site created by iWeb to internet, I tried "upload" function of iWeb and he just direct me to log on to the iCloud account.

    Thank you very much

    If you use a Mac with El Capitan, then there will not be any store for iWeb, because new Mac which not been shipped with iWeb for a long time.

    However, if you happened to load iWeb on your Mac from a disc, and then iWeb stores files of domain.sites under your user/Library/Application Support.  / Library/Application Support is the library system and you won't find anything here .

    To access your library from the user, you must click on the menu go upstairs and then press the 'alt key ' to your user library, but you may create, as the Mac ship automatically with iWeb, as has been the software not supported for the last 4 years or so now.

    To publish a site on the web, you need to get an account among many hosters autour - GoDaddy web hosting etc.  If you don't have a hosting account, that means first to register a domain name of your choice and then to buy the hosting for this, you will not be able to publish.  iCloud offers no accommodation, only a storage.

    Go to GoDaddy and register and domain name and purchase hosting and then download your site.

    Maybe you should consider new software also, like iWeb is old and not taken care of, then take a look at EverWeb instead.

  • When I deleted and then recreated the same account that all emails are now gone. Where did they go?

    I had problems with getting mail from my verizon email account. All of a sudden stopped working when checking mail. The transmission was fine. No server settings have been changed. Then as a final trial before the nightmare to finally give them, I removed the account and then set up again. I now get the emails, but all the 'old' disappeared. Where did they go?

    I read all the messages on the verizon smtp ssl problems but this (lack of e-mails that have been alreadiny in thunderbird) seems to be a matter of TB.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I don't think so.
    If you think it's a problem to check with your email provider.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    If you like Advanced SystemCare software that could restore some files from older versions to protect files against the changes and then check their settings or uninstall this software.

  • I was looking for where firefox downloads files from the web. Everything I can find is the download list window that has only a clear"" button.

(I use Windows 7 64 bit on an HP Pavillion laptop) Where is - this Firefox download files that it lists in its own small window of download, but you only allows 'Clear' the list, no copy or open, or move the file?
