Cleaning unused files from a session audio folder

I'm currently cleaning up unwanted files from my computer to free up space. I think I remember seeing a post about a program that will help me clean up the session audio file folder. I just need someone to point me in the right direction.
Thanks

Another question...
I think I made the mistake of choosing the option to save ultrabeat samples to my sessions folder. I say 'mistake' because there was no particular reason for me to chose that option. Can I safely delete those files from the session folder without harming the session itself?

Cleaning unused tracks from the session audio folder.

I'm currently cleaning up unwanted files from my computer to free up space. I think I remember seeing a post about a program that will help me clean up the session audio file folder. I just need someone to point me in the right direction.

Yeah, you have to decide whether you want to include absolutely everything in your Project folder (you would if you wanted to take the logic file and everything that you needed for it to work on a someone else's set-up, for example) or whether you want to save the particular requirements for that specific project and make sure they're all there so that nothings missing when you go back to it in two years time (still assuming you're working with the same plug-ins and so on..)
No-one can exactly take account of the future, so it makes sense to consider the basic stuff, anyway, but there isn't much point to saving samples from Ultrabeat or the EXS 24 if you're just going to keep bringing the project up on your own machine, all those samples are in the Library to be used on any project, it only matters if you do something to change them ?

Getting rid of files in the project audio folder

I can delete unused files from the Bin, but doing that does not delete them from the project audio folder. The only way I've found to get rid of the unused files to to save a copy. Is there another way?

Missing files from crashed session

I was working on a mix down when the system started to crash. I managed to hit save before the crash.
I reopened audition. I went to open the session but all the support files I recorded were not showing up on the component files side. The files are still in the folder but when I open up the session no tracks open up but the master track.
I tried downloading all the files to audition and then opening the session but the same thing happed. No tracks but the master.
Please help.

Lorne, this is a known issue that has, hopefully, been addressed with the 3.0.1 patch. Download and install the patch. It won't help you recover the now-corrupted session, but it might prevent it from happening again.
You have to rebuild the session. Get rid of the corrupted session file and create a new session from scratch. The good news is that any presets you might have saved in the FX racks should still be there. As I recall, those presets are not session dependent.

HT201272 I lost all my files after dowloading Icloud and updating Itunes on 24 September 13. having reloaded the computer and and files from an Emergency Backup folder I can no longer see My Library in Itunes or in Itunes store, and my ipod and ipad aren

can anyone help with retrieving My Library in Itunes and Itunes store - having updated Itunes and Icloud on 24 September 13, my computer failed and I lost all my files which were eventually backed up to an Emergency Backup. my computer is now working again and I have down loaded Itunes and transferred all the files from my Emergency Backup. Non of the music went back into Itunes, so I had to find these files and manually moved them to Itunes. The music is now in Itunes, but I no longer have the folder named My Library, which I think is the reason my Ipad, ipod no longer sync any additional music I have added to Itunes. Does anyone know how to rectify this please.
Many thanks. Crusey

iTunes expects files and folders to be in very specific locations. When you start iTunes it looks for a file called library.itl which is in the iTunes folder. It then uses all the references in that file which tell it where all your media files are located to build up the view you normally see. Probably you moved the library file so iTunes cannot find it and it will make a default one which is empty. When you plug in your iPod it isn't recognizing the library since it is not the same one to which you synced last.
Simply put, you need to undo all your file moves. Not as eaily done as stated but since I cannot quite see from here exactly what you spent an hour doing last night it will be up to you. Did you make a backup before doing all this?

Can't drop files from Downloads or Documents folder on the dock to any other Finder window

I have been downloading some files and dragging/dropping them into another folder for the last 30 minutes or so. They're downloading to the default Downloads folder, and then I've been dragging them from that folder in the Dock, which opens like a fan, and dropping them into another folder (my Documents folder) in an open Finder window.
All of a sudden, I can't drop files from the Downloads fan anywhere else. I also tested, and can't drop files from my Documents folder or my Screenshots folder, two other folders that are on the right side of my dock and open up like a fan.
I can drag them, but when I hover over the folder that I want to drop them into, nothing happens. If I let go, they just stay in their original folder (the Downloads folder).
So basically something happened with the folders on the right side of the dock that's not letting me drop the files anywhere else from the Dock. If I open the folders in their own Finder window, I can drag/drop just fine. It just won't let me do it from the Dock as I had been.
Any ideas? I've tried restarting as well as sleeping/waking as I saw recommended on here, but no luck.

Open Finder, press Option key, select Go > Library, open Preferences, delete com.apple.dock.plist and reboot

Help required with downloading files from inside WEB-INF folder

I am working on a web application and I have an upload script which uploads different files to a foler called 'uploads' . To stop users from accessing the folder content I have put it in the /WEB-INF/.
In my JSP file, I used to link to the uploaded files like this before for users to download them :
if(filesListIterator.hasNext()
files = (FilesBean)filesListIterator.next();
<tr><td><a target="_new" href="<%=files.getFileName()%>">"<%=files.getFileName()%></a></td></tr>
}I need to know how to alter the above link to make it access/download files from the /WEB-INF/uploads/ while still restricting direct access to the files.
Thanks

Anything under WEB-INF is not directly accessible via the browser/ client. You could try defining the JSP/ Servlet inside web.xml deployment descriptor and see if you can access the file from there.
I think a better way to accomplish this would be to keep the file outside WEB-INF , and use other techniques to protect the folder that contains the file - for example password-protection, or defining a .htaccess file and serving a 403 Forbidden error.

Moving aac file from music to ringtone folder

Can someone please help me figure out how to transfer a converted .wav file (now in aac format I believe) from my iTunes music folder to my ringtones folder? I've searched every possible area I know to figure it out, but still cannot.
Thanks,
S

If there isn't a file explorer app already installed on your phone, you should download one from the Play Store. I personally like ES File Explorer, but I know there are many other ones out there.
Once you have a file explorer installed, you will need to locate the music file you want to move. That might be a challenge unless you know where it was saved. Once located, you will move or copy it to the "ringtones" folder for phone call tones or the "notifications" folder for text and email message notifications.

How to generate trace file from different session?

I have a cron job which starts several Oracle stored proc (Oracle 9.2). I want to generate a trace file when the job is running. I know I can use this alter session command before I start this job. But this is my session not the job session. So this command won't generate trace file for job's session.
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS '10046 TRACE NAME CONTEXT FOREVER, LEVEL 8';
Appreciate any ideas.
Thanks.
S.

Easiest way is to use database control/grid control - click trace session button!
The 'old fashioned way is'
begin
DBMS_SYSTEM.SET_SQL_TRACE_IN_SESSION(SID,serial#,TRUE);
end;
find sid and serial# in a select from v$session
There are other ways too but this is probably the easiest.
You'll need appropriate privileges to run this .
Cheers,
Harry

How to get rid of unused files from robohelp 7

How do I delete should I do about the unsued files?
Robohelp 'help' on the unused file report help' is an outrageously bad joke:
Unused files report
You cannot remove these files from within your project. Use Windows Explorer to delete the files.
Note: Avoid using Windows Explorer or your version-control application to remove files.
Peter

The files are not shown in project manager because they are not part of the project. They are still within the project's folders though.
If you are not using version control, then you do just delete them using Windows Explorer.
I believe the incorrect information has been corrected in later versions of RH.

Advice for cleaning up files from my drive

I'm going through old directories and want to delete what I do not need from old projects and transfer what I do to other drives.
Is there any reason to keep:
1.) Thumbnail Cache Files?
2.) Render Files that have subfolders called Constant Frames?
3.) I found a whole bunch 2 GB files called Sequence 1-av1, Sequence 1-av2, etc. These files will not open when double-clicked on. A message indicating "File Error: Wrong type. displays, and when I drag them into the QT player, it indicates The movie could not be opened. The file is not a movie file. What are these? Can I delete them?
Thanks.

What's up, Nick?
If I delete my Compressor Files from my external hard drive, will my project files (my movie) still be intact without any changes at all?
How about my Color Files? Can I delete them from my external HD with out altering my project files (my movie)?
I'm working on a very short movie, and I have a 1TB external but it's almost full from all my different compressions and color gradings.
Also, can I delete older saved versions of my project without effecting my latest version?
Thanks,
Trey

Getting a document file from the transcribed audio file

I would like to know how to get a "document" file from the transcribed files created by Soundbooth. The files created by SB have 'xml' or 'xmp' extensions and I do not know what to do with these files or how to "read" them.
I am on a macbook pro MAC OS 10.5.5. I have latest versions of Word, and Final Cut Pro.
Any help would be appreciated. This is my first foray into the world of Adobe products.
Thanks,
Eric

The Transcript XML files conform to the XML Standards, and are a "marked up" text document containing several pieces of information. You can open the file in TextEdit (on Mac) or Notepad (on Windows) and you should be able to see what sorts of metadata is saved for each word in the transcription. Each transcribed word is stored in a data block, along with its timestamp, the duration of the spoken word, and some other metadata. This information is invaluable when importing the file into other applications or databases.
Neither Soundbooth nor Premiere Pro support exporting the transcript without the additional metadata or XML tags right now, but since it's a basic text file, it should be a very simple chore for a script to parse that file and write out each transcribed word to a new file.

How do I clean removed files from my library?

Hey!
When a .mp3 file is downloaded, when you update your library, it usually creates a copy of the file so when you remove them it won't be missing. That happened to me and now I deleted those files from the music folders and they still are in the library. what should I do?

Send your feedback to Apple. This issue has been discussed numerous times on this forum (do a search on Podcasts). What you are seeing are the ones that are in iTunes in the Cloud as well as your new ones. You can go to the My Podcasts tab for a less cluttered look, but for the nonce, the list view will show all of them:

Is there a way to automatically clean unused images from the DAM?

I'm trying to find a way to clean up the /content/dam folder from unused images and other assets.
Is there an automated tool for this? Search and remove type of SQL or XPath query?
How would I go about doing this?
(Manual removal is not an option. We have hundreds of images)
Thanks a lot in advance guys,
David

You are welcome. You can also find some script here [1] that does delete operation on DAM. You have to extend this script to check for references. Best way to do that would be to write a servlet that will return number of references based on DAM path and if result is zero then delete that node.
Or use CQ OOTB servlet (Use Curl command to check response)
http://localhost:4502/bin/wcm/references.json?path=<YOUR DAM ASSET PATH>
if this return empty then there is no reference.
