Anyone keep the original files stored outside of Aperture?
I upload all my RAW files to Aperture, and throw away the files on my desktop afterwards.
I have heard a few stories on here of people's libraries getting corrupt, updates deleting projects etc.
Does anyone keep their files on a different drive or location just for archival reasons?
And I don't mean using referenced files.
I like to have it all in Aperture.
Thanks!
I did keep all my files out of Aperture, originally. Now, I don't. I found I never needed that archive. And, it contained all the shots that I'd discarded out of Aperture. I'd have to go through them all again, discard, rate, fix, etc. Oh that'd be painful!
Importing into Aperture's the first thing I'll do. After a quick scan to mark cmd-9 discard the ones that are worthless, I'll emptry the trash and export the entire project to an external f/w drive. Depending on the project size, and if I'm remote or not, I may export the project to my iPod even, as another backup.
Then when I get back home I export the project again and import into the Desktop machine's Aperture and remove the project from the laptop. The desktop machine uses a few vaults. One on an always connected f/w drive, one on a half-the-time connected drive and another that is a portable Lacie drive that is almost always with me.
Every few weeks the drive that's in the safety deposit box is swapped out, too.
(FYI, I use rsync and Superduper to backup everything else).
Use the vaults! They're near automated and really quite simple to use.

I'm not sure if this was a recent update in Mavericks, but when I used to delete items from iTunes it would ask something along the lines of:
Do you want to keep the original file or move to trash?
Now I no longer get this, instead iTunes asks:
Are you sure you want to delete the selected song from your iTunes library?
After which, if you choose the option "Delete Song", you get no option to keep the original file, it just straight up deletes if from my library and hard drive. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? For whatever reason, I want to be able to keep the original file on my Mac, without keeping it in my iTunes library.
I've tried resetting dialogue warning, and this hasn't made a difference.

Acrobat 5.0 How do I keep the original file name after I have converted a Word doc to PDF?
MY colleague has a certain setting in Acrobat that allows him to keep the original file name when he converts documents from Word to PDF. Every time I convert Word, Acrobat overwrites the filename and names it "untitled.pdf". I would like to retain the original name and for Acrobat to simply add the .pdf file extension to the original name. How do I do this?
I have no idea what you are doing for sure. Does your WORD document have a name. I opened a WORD document and selected the Acrobat Distiller printer for AA5, I got the file menu for selecting the name and it was automatically filled in with the DOC changed to PDF. If you are using PDF Maker, then you will need to search there - I removed PDF Maker for AA5 years ago and can't view that part. I see the same types of options in PDF Maker for AA8.1.2 as I saw in the printer for AA5 and guess it is the same. The untitled.pdf suggests that you never saved the original DOC file so it has a name.

Why does imovie need to keep the original file after I have edited?
I record basketball games with my ipad and I keep the footage but cut the video so I can make highlights for the season. Thing is, these original videos are usually close to 10GB each and over an hour long.
I might have 5 minutes of highlights when Im done.
So to save space in my Imovie projects, I kept the clips i want and deleted the videos. When I came back to add more video to my season project, it said missing file.
Does it need to save the entire original media after I cut the video? I dont want to keep every game on my computer, I just want to keep what I cut and throw the rest out. But Imovie is asking for the original file.
Any solutions for this, or do I need to upgrade to a more professional editor?Hi
You are using a - Non Destructing Video Editing program.
Meaning that Your movie in making ==> Project - DO NOT contain any movie or material at all - BUT only a text document pointing to where material is stored e.g. folder iMovie Event's, other hard disks, DVDs, CDs or USB-memories.
And if any of these storage's are moved or disconnected - iMovie get's lost and can not View Your Project.
iMovie - do not have any "Media Managing Function" as FinalCut Pro (as it can reconnect moved material and create a complete contaning folder)
Even when You Shared Your movie - there still will be links back to material - to make it possibly to further editing's, and Sharing in other resolutions.
This is the cost of working this way. So I use an external hard disk for storage
- MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange will not work for VIDEO
- Moving Video Event's - MUST BE DONE WITHIN iMovie Application - ELSE connections will be broken - meaning HARD to IMPOSSIBLY to mend later. Be aware !
All other material I store in Folders named as movie project + date - all from start on the external Drive.

How can I get the Voice memo's source computer file to keep the original file name?
I ran out of space in my iPhone some weeks ago and I've been cleaning up. I am pretty much done deleting the photos and apps. The only thing I need to finish is erasing my voice memos. I already synced my music/voice memos with my computer, the only problem is that when I get the files from the iTunes media it changes the name and makes it extremely hard to organize. I want to upload this files to another website so I can access them freely.
I would REALLY appreciated if anyone could tell me how to fix this or if you have another method please tell me.This is pretty straightforward.
If the file isn't too big you can just read the entire file contents:
set fileContents to read file "HD:path:to:the:file.txt"
Once you've read it in, you can iterate through it with a repeat loop like:
repeat with eachParagraph in (paragraphs of fileContents)
-- code here to process each line
end repeat
Within the loop, eachParagraph represents each successive line in the file, so all you need to do is pull out the data you want. Now your subject says that your file is tab-delimited, but your example uses commas, so you may need to adjust this script depending on what's actually the case:
set my text item delimiters to tab -- or "," as appropriate
set firstName to text item 1 of eachParagraph
set lastName to text item 2 of eachParagraph
set emailAddr to last text item of eachParagraph
-- rest of code here to send an email
The last thing to do is to reset the 'text item delimiters' to their previous value so you don't end up getting confused.
So, putting that all together you end up with something like:
set fileContents to read file "HD:path:to:the:file.txt"
set oldTIDs to my text item delimiters -- additional code to remember the current TIDs
set my text item delimiters to tab -- or ","
repeat with eachParagraph in (paragraphs of fileContents)
set firstName to text item 1 of eachParagraph
set lastName to text item 2 of eachParagraph
set emailAddr to last text item of eachParagraph
-- rest of code here to send an email
end repeat
set my text item delimiters to oldTIDs -- restore the TIDs for cleanliness
Note that this should work for reasonably-sized files (up to a few thousand records). If it's much more than that you may need something a little more sophisticated to read the file progressively rather than all at once. -
I'm attempting to recover a group of lost files from Time Machine. The files are backups from a mobile app within User/LibraryMobile Documents/.
I'm able to find the lost files, but Time Machine failed to restore them after I select 'Keep Both' and then enter my Admin Password. The screen returns to the desktop and the finder window for the file I'm trying to recover, but nothing else happens.
I hope someone can help.

Keeping the original file without matching! (On purpose)
I have a question for you that i couldn't get the answer from searching the forum.
I want to know whether it's possible to upload a song/track and on purpose not setting itunes to match that particular song.
The reason is that i have alot of bootlegs and mashups in my library, and when itunes matches those songs, they overwrite and remove vocals and other things.Steffenevers wrote:

No. There is no way to force an upload.

If a "bootleg" in your library is matching to a track on the store then it is not a "bootleg" in the traditional meaning of the word. "Bootlegs" or unauthorized live recordings that have never been officially released by a band will not be for sale on the iTunes Store so there is very little chance they will match to anything on the store. What, exactly, are you seeing get matched?
A solution to you not hearing the expected version of a song on your iOS device is to sync the music in question to the iOS device via USB. Then you will be ensured of always having the "correct" version of the music on your device. -
How to export a file keeping the original timecode
Hello all,
I'm struggling to find out the way to do the following:
I have an entire footage file and from that I need to cut specific interviews to be translated however I must keep the original timecode where I extracted these interviews from so the editor knows where to place the subtitles (as s/he will be using the file as a whole and because it is a foreign language they won't know the correct place).
Does anyone know how to do this? Using FCP7 btw.
Thank you so so much!!!You cannot export a single QT file that has multiple timecodes embedded into it. What you can do is drop on the TIMECODE READER filters onto the clips so that they visibly show the timecode on the screen as reference.

I keep getting " The song**** could not be used because the original file c
Ok, I'll try not to get my problem too confusing or complicated. Had a virus and had pc repair store wipe and reload my operating system. They backed everything up and put it in a folder on my desktop. I reinstalled i-tunes. Opened i-tunes. checked my library. Everything is there but duplicated. I manually dumped all duplicates.(That was fun!) I try to play songs. I keep getting " The song** could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
I locate my i-tunes files in C drive, docs/settings, my docs, i-Tunes, i-Tunes music. I see an icon showing MPEG4 with a musical note and little "lock" symbol in the corner. I double click that icon and i-Tunes opens up and the songs starts playing. If I shut my pc down and restart it, go to i-tunes find that song and click it it always plays now. Okay that's one song fixed. Also if I find the icon in C drive again the little lock symbol is gone. Now down to the meat of my question; am I going to have to do this individually with all 2700 songs? Please tell me a faster way.
Thank youIf you know where all songs are located on the computer, I'd suggest just removing everything from iTunes and then adding it back in.
Edit > Select All
Edit > Delete
*Choose the option to Remove from library
*If prompted to move to recycle bin, choose Keep File
Then click File > Add Folder to Library and navigate to the folder on your hard drive that has your music in it. You can choose your iTunes Music folder, for example, and this will incorporate any subfolders you have stored in there.
The lock icon suggests that the file is "protected," so most likely purchased from the iTunes store.

Are ratings, keywords, metadata etc stored in the original file?
I've not been able to quite figure out if the keywords, ratings, iptc metadata etc are written back to the original files or if they are only stored in the database and/or XMP sidecar files. Can someone enlighten me on this one?
I shot almost entirely in jpeg and really enjoy the lightroom experience as a whole. Over the last few years I've changed platforms and software packages a few times - sometimes my metadata came with the files, sometimes it didn't. I like both Bridge and iView as they write the data back to the files and I'm really hoping that this is the case with Lightroom. Anyone?I couldn't find an application called "Rember" but ran TechTool. There were no problems encountered with this machine!
I have had no luck in restoring the original Lightroom library. As a result I am using Lightroom only "as needed."
The original library is "in storage" should some solution emerge.
When I can install V1 I will use the program again with the hope that there is an efficient back-up procedure documented in the help files.
When using Lightroom in a limited way I had 2 additional crashes without loosing the new library. However some of the images that I imported as referenced files do not show in the Library mode but are included in the count and are visible in the Slideshow and Web moduals.
This is frustrating and hope there is a good procedure documented in V1 to deal with backing up the library. I liked the Aperature Vault.
I am cautiously optimistic that this problem will not re occur -
I cannot play music from my itunes library. I keep getting an itunes message that says, “The song could not be used because the original file could not be found.” Is there a fix for this? Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a fix for this? Thank you.
Hello Turintest2,
I am having a similar problem. I have over 4000 songs giving me this error. I certainily don't want to go in one by one and find them. I know you wrote a script for Windows but I am a Mac user. Is there a fix for me? Here is the info on where the song is currently (used by doing the get info)
Here's a shot of my preferences:
Just FYI, I know that apparently iTunes is looking for this music in the trash. However, if I go here:
Then I find the music there as well. (Which is where it is in my preferences.)
Please help! I don't want to have to go through over 4000 songs and update them one by one. -
Hi. I have been having problems with my PC and recently removed a lot of rubbish to clear it somewhat. I dont know if that is relavant however on top of that I have just received my replacement iPad2 which i had a proble with and thought I would just tidy up my tunes before sycing. The problem is that everytime I click to play a track in iTunes on my PC, whilst the track is showing on my itunes, it comes up with a warning 'the song cannot be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to find it'. I have tried clicking 'locate', but all that appears is 'music Library' 4 different dates. Help i am very confused, can any shed any light on this
Thank youSounds like you have somehow moved your itunes music library to a different location to where iTunes thinks they should be. Your music should be in a folder called "iTunes Media>Music". If they are located there, try going into iTunes, right clicking on one of the songs and then "get info". When the box pops up, on the first screen it should give a location line where it thinks the music is located. If it is differen't to where you music is stored, try and match it up to the location line that was in the "get info" box.

What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files?
What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files? It seems that I'm not allowed to link my iPad mini and my work iMac using two different accounts, so I'm wondering how to make my single personal account work for both, while keeping personal vs work files reasonably separated.
Thanks for any suggestions.Is it possible for you to upgrade your account to iCloud Drive? That would mean, all Macs upgraded to Yosemite, and all mobile devices to iOS8?
See: iCloud Drive FAQ and iCloud: About using iWork for iOS and iCloud
In iCloud Drive you could create two separate custom folders, one for work documents and one for private documents and organize your documents there. Don't use the app specific folders (Keynote, Pages, Numbers, ...) , because you can only create one level of folders inside these folders. -
I cannot play music from my libray on either my external drive or my laptop. I keep getting the same message - "___ song (all of them) could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have changed the path several times under preferences and it still won't recognize any songs from either my laptop hard drive or my external drive. I can't play any music at all.
I think I've fixed this on my machine. If you look in the ITunes folder there is a subfolder called Previous iTunes Libraries. In my case for some reason this contained the one which had always worked and a new one was in the main folder. I closed iTunes, deleted the new one, and moved the old one back to the main folder, then opened iTunes. It then rebuilt the library and it plays correctly. Hope it works for you.

i-tunes could not be used because the original file could not be found.could not locate.this error occurs on most of my songs in my library and will not play even though they are in my i-pod and play with no trouble.can anyone please help?
I was not complete clear.
Since you never changed the settings in the advanced section of iTunes preferecnes, you have to chech that your music is really in the location setted in the folders reported in the advanced section. If not you have 2 ways: reset the position of this folders or in the actual disk organisation or in the pointing on the preferences.
If you press the reset button you just give to itunes its default setting as for the position of the music files: probably this will be a good choice if you have never changed any default preference.
But before I would check the folders and see if the songs are really there
In my iTune I have this, and I believe it is the default.
