About orphaned files

Hi,
I tried to run a sitewide link check and realized that one of the orphaned files listed was "update_payment.php" ...
So I did a sitewide search for "update_payment.php" and realized that indeed , a couple of javascript were calling this file out ("GET","update_payment.php?q="+str,true);
That means "update_payment.php" is not an orphaned file ... it is needed ... I also got that with some images files that were listed as orphaned when they were needed ...
The question is : How can we make the most of this DW feature ? What are the limits ? Anyone has tried it out yet ? It sounds wonderfull to have an option that can get rid out of all those files you acccumulated and don't need anymore !
If DW can find all files that contain "update_payment.php" then it should be able to work out if "update_payment.php" is being called out anywhere (as long as the filename is not given dynamically obviously)...it doesn't seem to work that way ... "update_payment.php" is a file that is harcoded in php and js files ... why DW considers it as orphaned ?

Hi, thanks for the reply ... it seems like it is not very good with php either when it comes to this kind of link <?php echo SITE;?>add_tour.php" ... how can we make the most of this feature ?

How can I delete orphan files from my itunes library all at once?

My itunes library has 0ver 200k files and about 30,000 were on an external drive that crashed leaving me with 30,000 orphan files that I want to delete from the library. Too many to delete one by one, how can I either sort them by this field to select all with shift click or is there a script to delete them?

AAC is Advanced Audio Coding. Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD). More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder). Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button. Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder. After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version." You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding. Hopefully your phone will play that.

My MacBook Pro (2010) running Mountain Lion is getting slower and slower. How do I fix the orphan files?

My 2010 Macbook pro is running slower and slower. I went to the Genius Bar about eight months ago, and they botted up from the disk, and let it go through and find what its process to find and fix what I think were "orphan" files. I cannot remember what they did, but when they did it, the speed on my Macbook picked up considerably.
I have since upgraded to Mountain Lion, but these problems do not seem related to that. My 500 GB HDD is about 80% full.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

Removed orphaned files...

Hi there!
Yesterday I had another system crash and was forced to shutdown my PowerBook. I restarted, logged in as Admin, checked the permissions and my user sparseimage. After that I rebooted with the Tiger-CD to check the harddrive itself.
After all, some permissions need to be fixed, but everything else seemed to be fine.
In the system.log I found a line, which told me that 16 orphaned files were removed. That was after the first reboot after the crash.
Is there a possibility to find out what files that were?
Months ago I had a similar problem. No errors were found at all, but a preference file was corrupt (or missing). So I discovered this error only because the application looks "different".
I know that a system crash is always bad for a filesystem, but it is possible to find out which files are corrupt? I read about a lost+found folder, but it's not in my root directory.
Another more general question: Did I something wrong (I mean AFTER the crash)? I also have Disk Warrior. Is this program better for a filesystem check?
Thanks for Your help!

Hi, Martin.
A close reading of Fsck - The UNIX® File System Check Program, which is available online in HTML and PDF formats, would indicate there are situations in which orphaned files will be removed without the creation of the lost+found directory. In some cases, the problem is simply corrected without a need to then add an alias to the files in the lost+found directory.
Orphaned files are not necessarily corrupted files, but rather files which have been "orphaned" with respect to the drive's directory, i.e. disconnected from the directory in some fashion. Granted, an orphaned file is also often corrupted, especially if it is a fragmented file (one that could not be written to contiguous space) and all its fragments could not be found. However, Orphaned status does not necessarily imply "corrupted."
If the actions on the files in question were not noted in the log, and since there's no lost+found folder, there's no way to know.
Finding corrupted files is the proverbial "needle in a haystack" quest. However, the techniques in my "Finding corrupted files" FAQ can help.
IMO, Alsoft DiskWarrior is the tool-of-choice for repairing hard drives when Disk Utility cannot correct the directory corruption. At present, it can only be used with PowerPC-based Macs: a version for Intel-based Macs is pending.
Intel-based Mac users can employ the following third-party tools for directory repair until a Universal version of DiskWarrior is available:
• Micromat TechTool Pro v4.5.1 or later.
• The Universal version of Prosoft Engineering Drive Genius.
It doesn't sound like you did anything incorrectly. You may want to review my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ for a recommended procedure and related information.
Good luck!

URLs in orphaned file list?

when I check for orphaned files on my very old, very messy
website I see urls like "/http:/java.sun.com",
"mailto:[email protected]" and nothing happens when I choose
"open file". I can delete them from the list but when I run the
orphaned files check again they're all back! what's going on?
I recognize most of these as files and links that were
deleted long ago (them and the pages that linked to them). How is
dreamweaver finding these links and what are they doing in the
orphaned files list?

I have a Tecra M2 and rely on your email update to ensure I have the latest drivers on my machine.
When I received a Toshiba support email on 14 April 2005 giving reference to a QFE from Microsoft I assumed it would be necessary for my Tecra.
I was very confused when I found that this QFE and subsequent ones posted on the 16 April 2005 relate to Pre SP2 critical updates no9t required if one has already taken earlier advice of updating to Service Pack, at the very least your narrative should make mention of this. I find it very difficult to believe that your updates are two+ years out of date.

I get an error when starting firefox on several user profiles: the bookmarks and history are not functional something about the file being in use.

Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 workstations, the appdata folder is redirected to a network share at \\server\profiles and several users are unable to use bookmarks getting an error about the file being in use. I'm wondering if maybe my antivirus (Trend Micro) or my backups (Symantec) might be locking up the places.sqlite for these users? Though I don't understand why it would be for some users and not others. I can't be the first one and I'm not coming up with anything searching google endlessly. Anybody else run into this?

hello, yes this is likely caused by an external program locking access to the bookmarks/history database. you could try renaming the file in question & see if it is working when it is regenerated, this will clear bookmarks and the history though, so keep a backup...

Acrobat X freezes when I run a JavaScript Action after about 200 files.

Acrobat X freezes when I run a JavaScript Action after about 200 files, batches with less than 200 files work well. I can watch the Acrobat.exe process in the resource monitor and when the Threads reach about 2000 and the Working Memory reaches 500mb, Acrobat freezes. The JavaScript creates 2 redaction areas, applies the redaction, then saves the file to another location. I've tested it on both Windows Server 2008 and Win7 32bit. I'm running Acrobat X Pro fully update to 10.1.10.

It is possible to have the Redaction tool search for a text string across multiple PDFs without using the "Action" wizard or batch processing. You will have to learn the exact steps to properly set the properties for each string of text. You can also review the items marked for redaction and either accept, remove or adjust as needed each one.
There are 3rd party tools that can also redact PDFs and they existed long before this feature was added to Acrobat. Appligent Document Solutions Redax..
Appligent even has a server based product for large amount of files or using watched folders.

I have flip4mac program in my mac
How do I edit.

Let me help getting your question back to something we might understand.
- You are exporting your video AS .wmv
and
- when you export it, there are black bars left and right of the image.
How do you fix?
Ok - what was the format of the video prior to your exporting it? When you edited it in FCP, what were the sequence settings? That will help get the right settings for flip4mac.

Question about upload file to sever in jsp.

i found some articles about upload file in jsp, and most of suggested that the third party classes will be used.
but i want to know the basic technology behind them, for example what kind of class needed ( using java.io.* as usual)
and what the process for writing a file to sever.
any document or url link useful will be very welcomed.
best regards

Uploading a file is similar to sending any other kind of data, except that it must be encoded differently than a standard HTML form... Typically you will set up your form like this:
<form action="/upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
<input type="file" name="myFile">
</form>
The enctype declaration is necessary -- your file won't arrive intact any other way. However, the JSP/Servlet specs don't provide any code to deal with forms which are encoded this way, so things like request.getParameter() don't work. You will either have to roll your own code, or use a third party library.
For more information, see RFC 1867, File upload in HTTP:
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1867.html

What does it mean exactly when the file quarantine feature warns you about unsafe file types?

It says here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3662 that "when you open a potentially unsafe file in Finder, Spotlight, or from the Dock, the file quarantine feature will warn you about unsafe file types. If you open a quarantined file, you will receive an alert asking, "Are you sure you want to open it?" You should click Cancel if you have any doubts about its safety."
Am I correct in thinking that when this ^ appears on the screen, it means the file you're trying to open is unsafe but not totally harmful to the Mac? Which means you can still open it and it won't be much of a problem?

If you know that you went to web site shown and downloaded the file shown at the date & time shown, then it's most probably exactly what you think it is. If a panel pops up for some software that should NOT have been downloaded -- as in a file that's part of the operating system -- then all sorts of alarms should go off. This is a classic technique for password grabbers -- you open something like Software Update and are completely expecting to have to type in the username and password of an account with Administrator priviledges, but if it is some nefarious program that you somehow downloaded and has substituted itself in the place of Software Update, then who knows where your password and username are going to get sent off to! If you got a panel like that and it said "Software Update" is an application downloaded from the internet. Or "Mail" is an application downloaded from the internet. Or "TextEdit". Big alarms!!!
This is why when you are downloading software you should type in urls directly, or click on them from a search page rather than some random link in an email/ad/etc. If I type get.adobe.com/flashplayer into the url bar on the browser then I know that I really went to adobe's web site and got the real flashplayer (unless something is REALLY wrong!). When you click on some link it might be going to anyplace at all -- including places that you don't want to go! This panel gives you one last chance to double-check that the file you are opening is what you think it is and it came from where you think it came from.
