Logic 8 Deleted all my desktop files/folders.... !!!???

I just downloaded some groove templates from LogicCafe.com and ran into something quite disturbing and or interesting. So the file downloaded to my desktop... its a .lso file named MPC3000Q.lso. I double clicked it and it opens fine in L8... there are 2 packed folders with the midi regions in there for the groove templates. In the quantize drop down menu sure enough there are all the MPC Groove Templates. Here is were I ran into trouble... I hit Apple+N to open a new session... because the MPC3000Q.lso was just a test, I select the "Close and Don't Save" options. When the new session opens I'm presented with a pop up window reading *"Project MPC3000Q.lso has not been saved since it was created. Delete the created folders and files?"* So I selected delete... This deleted every file on the same level as the MPC3000Q.lso file... sooo EVERYTHING ON MY DESKTOP! I was able to recover this stuff from the trash but I was quite alarmed by this. This could potentially be a VERY BAD thing! I can repeat this every time... and played with it a bit by placing that original MPC3000Q.lso file inside its own folder... and it did what you'd expect it too (delete that folder and everything inside of it). But I'm sure everyone can see if for example if you did not have this file inside its own folder (like I didn't) and for example had this file placed inside the folder where you normally keep all you sessions (on a root level) and chose delete, it would delete everything inside that folder. Here is the bad part... even if you were aware of this and found out before emptying your trash... when you go to retrieve this stuff from the trash every file has now been taken out of its original folders and placed in one huge pool of files. The folders and sub folders disappear. So reorganizing your projects which were just mistakenly deleted would be a next to impossible task as you can see. So no real acceptable way to recover from this mistake as far as I can see. Hope I'm making sense. And I hope Apple will take a look at this soon.
Can Any of you reproduce this (take caution when trying!)? Has anyone else already experienced this? I couldn't find anything in my searches.
Cheers!

Hi defeq.com
Although I was not able to reproduce what happened to you - This here happened to me:
This morning I answered some guys post about Logic deleting everything in the same level as the project folder under certain circumstances. I Tried trouble shooting for him but could not recreate it.
Then this happened to me today:
When working in Logic 8 in Leopard all of a sudden it stopped communicating with my Unitor8 via USB. I restarted but the Unitor 8 Which I reset twice would NOT communicate with L8 anymore. It would remain in patch mode (red light lit though CPU is running)
I've had this erratic behavior many times since the past years on many computers so it wasn't really new. All one needs to do is reinstall the Unitor Family driver.
So I decided to do so:
I inserted my Logic Studio DVD and opened the installer and checked ONLY the Unitor family Drivers. After completed install I restarted the Mac. Everything went fine. So I booted L8. While booting I saw my hardrives on the right side of the desktop flash once. I thought that to be strange and took closer look.
Now my boot drive was missing from all the drives on the desktop and in the sidebar window...
I tried to Apple+Click on a Application in the dock. The finder opened the applications folder and showed me the app I had clicked on. But I could not navigate to the root of my System Drive even via the "path" sysmbol in the toolbar. So I hit shiftappleg and entered /Volumes/MySystemVolume - it showed my volume "Grayed Out" in the finder window...
I tried repairing the disk and permissions but nothing was wrong with my boot drive apparently besides the fact that the finder (and all other applications when wanting to open or save) could not "see" my system drive... I could launch all the apps normally that were residing on the SystemDrive in the AppFolder... So this kept getting weirder...
So I opened my favorite application Tinkertool System and went to the Tab Files and chose the underlying tab "Attributes" which shows me Macintosh HFS and Finder Attributes... I pulled my SystemDrive onto the Drop Area and discovered something VERY amazing: The Display in Finder option had mysteriously been altered to "INVISIBLE"
I changed it to Visible and there it was - My System Drive... Showing up in the finder...
I made a restart to make sure everything was OK....
After the restart the following settings had VANISHED:
1) Pixadex = ALL ICONS (I had 230 MB) of sorted icons stored in my Application Support Folder
2) All my Safari Book marks were gone - They were still in ~/Library/Safari - but the Bookmarks.plist was UNREADABLE even with a text editor and XML editor
3) Numerous other applications had LOST their authorization preferences so I had to re-authorize many of my Audio Unit plug-ins...
4) My Dock had been reset
5) My Monitor arrangement had been reset...
6) My date and time had been reset
7) My energy settings had been reset.... (I had NOT zapped the P-RAM)
Since installing Leopard 2 weeks ago - I have CAREFULLY monitored ANY activity after INSTALLING anything in order to be able to troubleshoot - and this problem definitely occurred right after installing the USB Family Drivers and launching L8....
There was really NO HARM done other than the sweating that I did troubleshooting but if L8 is capable of doing what happened to this other guy loosing his whole folder and now doing this to me - where are the limits? When is someone going to get REAL hurt.
Please Apple - I am sending you this post as a BUG report as well - could you PLEASE look into this as there has to be some kind of VERY dangerous MALFUNCTION within Logic or its Installers.

    When I download firefox, using recommended setting, or my own, all the sub files/folders like plugins, modules, updater end up on the desktop as well as in the file location. And when I try to put them into the file location, they don't. And when I delete them, FireFox won't open. I tried deleting FireFox and reinstalling it multiple times, and a message pops up sometimes that says FireFox may not have installed correctly, so I follow the steps, but all the extra icons on my desktop don't go away. This has happened every time I have downloaded FireFox. The browser itself works, but I need to know how to get rid of these icons, but still be able to use FireFox. This is on a new computer, with Windows 7.

    After computer would not boot and could not be repaired, I reformatted the HDD, reinstalled Vista plus all service packs and updates, recovered files from Microsoft backup and installed new copy of Firefox 3.6. Firefox will not run.
    I have deleted all old M0zilla profile folders and reinstalled Firefox again to no avail.
    After intallation was completed, the automatic startup just placed a small box on the screen "Import wiz". This just sat there with no activity. After I closed this box, none of the Firefox start buttons would open the program -- just the blue rotating icon for about 2 seconds then nothing.

  • I deleted all my iTunes files and need help recreating them.

    Hello everyone
    I accidentlly deleted all the iTunes files (NOT the content, just the files iTunes uses in its database). When I tried to create a new database, iTunes moved all my my music videos into the Movies or Home videos, which I don't want. I have a copy of my folder set up that I want iTunes to use and to not alter (exactly as it was before I deleted the files). Here is what I thought I need to do. Please corect me if I am wrong:
    1. remove all the files that iTunes has relocated to different folders (IE, basically delete them all)
    2. copy the folders onto the drive I use for my media
    3. start itunes
    4 unselect Keep my files organized
    5. scan the folders
    6. Select all the music and videos and classify them as "Music" or "Music Videos"
    This should keep all the files in the same folders as the backup copy, without moving them to Videos or Home Videos. I assume this will also retain the current Artist / Album / Song hierarchy.
    Is this correct?
    Any better way to do this?
    Thanks everyone who can help!

    1) If you bought them from Apple you canprobably download them again.
    2) If you back up your computer as you should, they will be on the backup.
    3) If you stop using your computer this instant (because as you use the computer it overwrites deleted files even if you have lots of space), buy recovery software ($100+), there is a  chance you can recover some of them, though they may have lost filenames and will be in quite a mess.

  • Exposé hot keys disabled after Time Machine "Delete all backups of file"

    I have been having the same problem that was initially mentioned in this topic:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5850265#5850265
    Namely, sometimes after I restart all of my Exposé and Dashboard hot keys have been turned off (but not the Spaces hotkey, just F9-F12). My hot corners for turning off or on the screensaver work just fine, but I have to manually go in and turn back on my Exposé hot keys. Some people said it was associate with WoW, but I am not running World of Warcraft. This last time it happened (this morning), I had removed all backups of a few files in Time Machine (what's the point of having a backup of a rented movie after the 24 hour viewing period has expired?). I have been looking for a way to report this to Apple, but have been unable thus far.
    I just tested it to see if you have to restart, and you do not. About thirty minutes ago I turned all the Exposé hot keys on, and just a minute ago I deleted a backup of a file on my Desktop in Time Machine (by selecting, "Delete all backups of file ______") and the hot keys had been disabled again.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to fix this?

    Mechanist wrote:
    At some point I told Time Machine to get rid of backups of a particular file using the "Delete all backups of ..." option. Time Machine duly deleted the backups of the file and stopped making new ones.
    Not exactly.  It did delete the existing backups, but didn't make any new ones because the file hasn't changed since then.
    The easiest way to get it to back it up is to make a minor change to it (the name or something in the contents), then change it back.  Time Machine should back it up on the next backup.
    Alternatively, you need to force a "deep scan," where Time Machine compares everything on your system to the backups.  Usually, just starting up from your Recovery HD will do that, although sometimes you have to start from it and Repair your internal HD to trigger it. 
    If you're not sure how to do that, see Using the Recovery HD and/or #6 in Using Disk Utility.

  • I cant delet all the itunes files o my cp to download the

    I cant delet all the bonjur files to download the new. Itunes what do i do

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device.  Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software.  A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • Best way to transfer and delete all project related files?

    I want to work on a project while at school and home.
    1. Is Media Manager the best way to transfer everything I need from one mac to another?
    2. Is there an automated way to delete all of my files from capture scratch, etc. on the school mac when I am done transferring everything to my disk? I would like to make sure no one else can access those files, though I do not want to delete anyone else's work.
    Thanks.

    Go get yourself a big, fast portable firewire drive. Plug it into the school computer. (make sure it is properly formatted first!!!) Navigate to your project's capture scratch folder. Drag the folder to your hard drive. When it's done copying, open as many files as it takes to satisfy you that it has copied successfully.
    Then drag any photos, music, narration etc files to the hard drive. Finally, copy your fcp project file to the hard drive.
    When you're SURE you've got everything successfully, un mount the firewire drive. Then do all the above again, but this time drag the files on the school computer to the trash and empty the trash.
    All this assumes no other twit captured into your folder, but hey what the heck, live and learn.

  • Even via time machine the new osx lion has deleted all my latest files in iPhoto and will only revert back to an old 2009 backup?

    even via time machine the new osx lion has deleted all my latest files in iPhoto and will only revert back to an old 2009 backup?... Help?!

    Have you verified that the original files are missing from the Originals/Masters folder?  There are time when the library might appear empty due to a damaged database file but still has the files.  If you can open the library package via the Finder to see if the files are really missing or just can't be seen by iPhoto there are fixes you can try.
    If the files are there make a temporary, backup copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • My imovie seems to have completely crashed... and I'm hoping someone can help me. I have moved all my projects and events to a folder on my desktop. I've deleted all the plist files I can find and I still cannot get it to open.

    Please help... it seems all is lost as all I kind find on this subject seem to lead to nowhere. My engagement was on imovie, a school project, several videos of our son. You will have to hold my hand through this process... as I am not very good at this type of thing.

    Hi
    Yes this can be many things - and I can only guess/suggest.
    A. a very common origin to make the Mac un-happy is to - PANIC-HALT - when the round multicolored thing appear.
    So much can go wrong by doing this - and if done often problem builds up that can result in a real disaster.
    B. NEVER - move or alter any folder named - iMovie Event's resp. iMovie Project's - as iMovie has no search function - moving them results in that iMovie get's 100% lost.
    One can move them - but this HAS TO BE done within the iMovie application (as it is up and running)
    C. preference files - there are TWO or more Libraries on Your Mac. First and easy to find is the one You see when opening Your Start-Up Hard Disk window = Root Library == the WRONG ONE
    What we need to find is the one in Your User-Account folder (icon as a house) - and this is in Mac OS X.7, X.8 and X.9 HIDDEN. To see it do:
    ( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )
    or - do like this. 
    On the Finder window at the top left of the screen,
    Hold down the Option key and clicked on Go. 
    This allowed You to see the Library folder and select it. 
    Then keep the Option button pressed down in order to see and select the Library folder. 
    Once found it, You are able to navigate to the iMovie preferences file and move it to the trash.  iMovie then start’s up fine! 
    Now here in Your User Library - find Preferences and trash
    com.apple.iMovie.plist
    com.apple.iMovie3.plist
    com.apple.iMovie7.plist
    com.apple.iMovie8.plist
    com.apple.iMovie9.plist
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    and find
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
    Now restart iMovie.
    I Prefere another way to find out if this is the problem.
    (after all folders (iMovie Event/Projects are moved into original place)
    • go up to Apple Menu
    • Down to System Pref's
    • Select Accounts - Create a new User
    • Go down the Apple menu - Log OUT
    • Log into as the new User
    Now try iMovie
    Does it work at all ? (Yes You don't see Events or Projects in Your original Account just now)
    If so - Then we know that there is a corrupted pref file to be trashed.
    Else - the problem are much more severe.
    D. After Panic Halt / Forced Quit - I always do -. to keep disasters on arms length.

    • Start from other HD or DVD - then run Repair Hard Disk (Apple Disk Util tool)

  • What did Tiger do with all our desktop files?

    When we closed out an imaging program, we noted that all the files and folders on the desktop were gone. just the Hard drive icon was there. There was maybe 15 folder with several GB total on the desktop. But the desktop was clean. The trash still had a lot of old files/folders, but nothing from the desktop was in the trash. This is very serious, and I'm wondering if anyone knows how a iMac could selectively delete so many files, w/o emptying the trash.
    Thanks.
    -wayne

    One possibility is that you have a sever case of directory corruption. The files may still be there, just that the system lost track of them. This type of thing can happen for any number of reasons. Are you certain that these were not temporary files? What imaging program were you using? Did you remember to save your work? If you saved your work can you find it?
    If it is a directory problem you will want to start by booting from you system install CD and running Disk Utility to see if it can repair it. Directions for doing that can be found here:

  • Profile Manager deleted all of my files - not just the profile. Any tips on what happened and how to resolve?

    I created a profile with Profile Manager. It dumped a lot of files into the directory that I selected. At that point I wanted to delete the profile and the associated files. When I selected the Delete Profile and Delete Files option it delete all files and folders in the directory - not just the profile files. It offered no warning that it was going to delete more than the profile files. Why did it do this and is there a way to recover the missing files? OS = Windows 7.

    You should never select a folder to be used as profile folder that already has files in it.<br />
    You should always choose a new and empty folder because you can use the Profile Manager to take up an existing profile by choosing the location.<br />
    Removing the profile and opting to delete the files will remove all the files in that folder and remove the folder as well, so be cautious with doing that.

  • I want to delete all the ".aae" files in my iPhone5(iOS8.0.2).

  • How Do I delete all the Music Files at on

    Without reformating my Zen Vision:M how do I erase all the music files from the player. I have found that even though I have approx. 0 gig of music on my computer the Zen tells me that I have 9 gig. I want to remove all the music files and re-sync with the pc. I have also fixed a great deal of the "unkown albums" on my computer to have the names and art so I don't want to duplicate the music. Oh and I would like to be able to do this without reloading the firm ware. THANKS!!

    You should be able to use Zen Media Explorer to do this. Just use it like Windows Explorer: highlight the albums (folders) you want to delete, hit delete and it should take them off the player (may take some time).
