Commenting a Template Project File, but how?

This would be really handy (from the Logic Pro 8 User Manual, p. 154):
Tip: You can add a descriptive text to your templates by adding a comment to the
project file in the Finder. The Templates dialog displays the icon assigned to a template file, making it easy for you to change a template’s icon. For more information on how to add a comment to a file, or change the icon of a file, see the Finder Help.
Well, I added some Spotlight Comment in the File Info Window of some of my template files, but they do not show up in Logic. A new icon does, however.
Sometimes I just overlook something really easy on my Mac (after all these years...). But what is it this time?
Anyone any idea? Feature only working on Leopard?
Thanks,
Marius

I too tried this some time ago. I made several attempts before giving up. Perhaps I gave up too soon but the method seemed very straight forward in the manual. So I too would be interested in hearing from anyone who managed to do this sucessfully.

    Then you won't be able to use that backup. You might as well delete it and start over.

  • Final Cut Pro X Project file corrupt, how to restore for backup when not prompted by the program?

    We have a project on an iMac 13 4gb RAM. We have discovered that it is not the event, but instead it is the project file that has become corrupted. When we try to poen FCPX it crashes, and reports that it has crashed. however, if we remove the project file and leave the event and then try to open FPCX, there is no problem. Looking online, usually FCPX asks if you want to open from the backup hat FCPX makes of yourproject. However, since we cannot opn FCPX with the project, then we cannot do this!
    Just as a side note, this is a VCE media project that is due tomorrow... So any ideas are extremely welcome!!!

    This is absolutely ridiculous:  a Project is a work so complicated, there should be MULTIPLE backups (as in Logic or Photoshop) and an easy "Restore from Backup" File command!  Instead, you must manually COPY from the backup folder in Finder -- OUTSIDE the program (and which contains only the most RECENT backup) into the parent project folder for the particular project.  This capability is almost useless, since the only backup you have might be just 15 minutes old.  Then you are up a creek.
    Fortunately there is Time Machine, and you can use that to go back far enough to find the work you accidentally destroyed (or APPLE destroyed) and MANUALLY copy that over into the correct folder using Time Machine restore procedures. 
    I am finding, which led to rant, that when I delete an Audio Effect, the Whole Project is deleted when the audio track is selected.  I'm doing something wrong, or here's more work for the programmers.
    Really, this is unacceptable work.  And thank goodness for my Time Machine.  Program 101 in work like this is MULTIPLE backup capability and an easy restore command.
    This needs to be addressed pronto.  I'm holding my breath.

  • Trouble finding old templates/project files

    I created several relatively intricate DVD menus several months ago and then had to transfer all the project files and associated media to a different computer. Now I can't seem to open any of the menus I created.
    It seems like it should be simple but what is the extension of the primary project file in DVD SP? Are they *.layout files? When I try to open these, DVD Studio pro just sits idly and does nothing.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.
    thanks

    I was able to work this one out myself.

  • "Volume not found" I have 3 iphoto_libraries stored in a external disk, while the actual files are in other external disk. Ive moved together iphotolibraries and files but: HOW CAN I TELL THE LIBRARIES WHERE TO FIND THEM NOW?

    I have three iphoto_libraries stored in a external disk PASSPORT (one for each trip imovie Im making -Ive managed this way the libraries so to not confuse the trips) while the actual files are in OTHER external disk LACIE. And everything was fine: imovie find each library, could work with it, or iphoto could edit the files.
    But one day everything crashed at the same time: i opened iphoto to find 3 different scenarios:
    1) iphoto_library GREECE was there, but not the albums i prepared. no events. when double click in any of them: "Volume not found"
    2) iphoto_library ITALY was there, and the albums i prepared too, but empty.
    in both cases I can only see the photos in 'photos'  because 'events'  shows some events with photo preview and some with no preview, just some kind of preset clipart palm tree, but if i enter the event, photos are there but again: when double click in any item: "Volume not found"
    3)  iphoto_library ISRAEL was there, the albums too, when double click in any of them: all OK
    The 3 libraries was managed the same way. Meaning: Ive imported photos to iphoto from external disk LACIE in a iphotolibrary stored in another external disk PASSPORT. Also: I don't have unchecked the option "copy to file" or something like that. photos where moved, not copied. Also i have all the movie_libraries in the PASSPORT as well. What happened??
    Solution? Nothing yet. Ive moved now all the photo folders from LACIE together in PASSPORT with the iphotolibraries but problem persist:
    HOW CAN I TELL THE LIBRARIES WHERE TO LOOK FOR THE VOLUMES NOW?
    "Volumes" are the original files aren't them?
    Please help. this is so annoying to try and find in the forum, to tricky to explain
    I have a Macbook pro retina Yosemite 10.10.1 / iphoto 9.6 (910-29)/ iMovie 10.0.6
    THANK YOU
    Vicky

    The 3 libraries was managed the same way. Meaning: Ive imported photos to iphoto from external disk LACIE in a iphotolibrary stored in another external disk PASSPORT.
    This is not clear, especially when you say
    I don't have unchecked the option "copy to file" or something like that. photos where moved, not copied.
    Especially as the message you're getting is typical of a library where the ' option "copy to file" or something like that' is unchecked.
    So it's a simple question:
    Are you these Managed or Referenced Libraries?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • LightSwitch is still looking for an entity property that no longer exists in any project file. How and why?

    I recently performed an across-the-board rename in my LightSwitch application and development database. (No worries, always backups.) I know that directly editing the .lsml files (Client.lsml, Common.lsml, Server.lsml) isn't supported - you must be careful.
    That said I've been able to use find and replace within these files with great success for simple refactoring ... until now.
    I renamed "WcsNum" on my Job entity to "JobNum".
    I have a data grid whose entities include a relationship to "Job" and display a couple of Job's properties, all very typical. Now whenever I open the screen with the data grid and it's populated with one or more entities that have a reference to a
    job, I receive this:
    The property 'WcsNum' does not exist on type 'LightSwitchApplication.Implementation.Job'. Make sure to only use property names that are defined by the type.
    The spooky thing is, the text WcsNum no longer exists anywhere in my entire project. I've used Agent Ransack to search my entire project directory including the main LightSwitch project, my WCF RIA Services project, and any related files.
    I've even exported my database schema (and data) to scripts and searched those for it -- nothing.
    I've tried "Clean Solution", as well as manually deleting every obj, bin, and GeneratedArtifacts directory in both projects. There are no remaining occurrences of this reference, I don't know where it's getting it from.
    I also tried deleting the settings from %UserProfile%\Documents\Microsoft\LightSwitch\Settings, which I regularly clear anyway to discard manual column sizes.
    As I'm typing this I'm searching the contents of every file on my entire computer for "WcsNum", in case there's some other local cache that needs cleared. Feasible with a solid state drive.
    If I can't find it this way, it must be stored differently, or within a binary format that Agent Ransack doesn't recognize as ANSI/Unicode.

    For the first question, in Solution Explorer, you'll find a folder under the LightSwitch project called "Data Sources". But here's the bit you might be missing. You have to switch to back to
    Logical View, if for some reason you've switched to File View. You won't see the data sources if you're in
    File View. And seeing as you've got Luminous Tools installed, if you have made the toolbar visible, then you have a button to do it all for you "Show Data Sources". Then you simply right-click the data source that is your RIA
    Service, then select Update Data Source. I hope that makes it a bit clearer for you?
    As for not seeing a Rebuild Project command, you might be looking in the actual LightSwitch menu. What I've done is only put commands in there that directly relate to LightSwitch. Any others will appear in one of two groups in the context menu underneath
    the LightSwitch menu. Rebuild Solution, Rebuild Project, & Cancel Build, should all be together. If you still can't find it, let me know. Any images of what you're seeing on the screen would be very helpful for me to know what to advise you.

  • Created .rpd file but how do I connect in OBIEE Answers?

    I have created a .rpd file using an Essbase connection but am now stuck on how I connect an Answer query to it in the OBIEE dashboard tool itself. When I create a new analysis, I do not see my newly created .rpd in the list of available connections. Should the RPD be saved in a specific folder? Do I use some fucntion within OBIEE to connect to the newly created .rpd? Am I missing out a section where I connect to the .rpd file, like in FR when you connect to a new Datasource?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You need to make the repository online for queries. Follow this:
    - Login to Weblogic Enterprise Manager http://SERVER:7001/em
    - On left pane, go to folder Business Intelligence --> coreapplication
    - Go to "Deployment" tab and then "Repository" tab.
    - click on "Lock and Edit configuration"
    - Select repository to load, enter repo password and then click Apply.
    - Then click Active Changes and then Restart all obiee services.
    Once this is done, you'll be able to see and work on your presentation schema in Asnwers.

  • Corrupt log file, but how does db keep working?

    We recently had a fairly devastating outage involving a hard drive failure, but are a little mystified about the mechanics of what went on with berkeleydb which I hope someone here can clear up.
    A hard drive running a production instance failed because of a disk error, and we had to do a hard reboot to get the system to come back up and right itself (we are running RedHat Enterprise). We actually had three production environments running on that machine, and two came back just fine, but in one, we would get this during recovery:
    BDBStorage> Running recovery.

    We thought, well, perhaps this is related to the disk error, it corrupted a log file and then died. Luckily (or so we thought) we diligently do backups twice a day, and keep a week's worth around. These are made using the standard backup procedure described in the developer's guide, and whenever we've had to restore them, they have been just fine (we've been using our basic setup for something like 9 years now). However, as we retrieved backup after backup, going back three or four days, they all had similar errors, always starting with [4096]. Then we noticed an odd log file, numbered with 4096, which sat around in our logs directory ever since it was created. Eventually we found a good backup, but the customer lost several days' worth of work.
    My question here is, how could a log file be corrupted for days and days but not be noticed, say during a checkpoint (which we run every minute or so)? Doesn't a checkpoint itself basically scan the logs, and shouldn't that have hit the corrupt part not long after it was written? The system was running without incident, getting fairly heavy use, so it really mystifies me as to how that issue could be sitting around for days and days like that.
    For now all we can promise the customer is that we will automatically restore every backup as soon as it's made, and if something like this happens, we immediately try a graceful shutdown, and if that doesn't come back up, we automatically go back to the 12-hour-old backup. And perhaps we should be doing that anyway, but still, I would like to understand what happened here. Any ideas?

    Please note, I don't want to make it sound like I'm somehow blaming berkeleydb for the outage-- we realize in hindsight there were better things to do than go back to an old backup, but the customer wanted an immediate answer, even if it was suboptimal. I just feel like I am missing something major about how the system works.

  • Well i can load Class from file, but how i save it to file?

    Hello,
    Let's say we can load some Class using ClassLoader, but if i want to do the opposite? I would like to make a .class file, for this i have got Class object and few methods.
    the start would look like this;
    Class<?> cl = ....;
    String nameWithPackages = cl.getName().replaceAll("\\.", "/")+".class"
    File file = new File(nameWithPackages);
    ... Well now i need to fill the class file with the data, any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Nothing appears on my screen after I log on, I know I need to delete files but how do I go about it if I can't click on anything bc there is nothing there :(

    After loging in my screen is blank. Even the apps that automatically open don't open. nothing appear. I know i have a full memory but I can't delete anything help.

    You have voiceover on. First try tapping the home button three times fast to turn it off.
    If it is still on the gestures are different. You tap once to choose an item then double tap the item to activate it. Remember everything that was one tap is now tap then double tap. Start with the lock screen. Tap, then double tap your code. Swipe with two fingers to open, if the screen doesn't slide with two fingers try using three.
    Tap then double tap each of the following. Settings> general> accessibility> voiceover > off.
    Good luck.
    Edit. I'm not sure if you need two fingers to slide to unlock. Try with one finger. If that doesn't work try two.

  • I backed up TBird with Mozbackup, but cannot restore: I unzipped the PCV file but how do I restore my profile from that?

    The unzipped PCV file includes an address file and multiple mail files in plain text.
    What next?

    Why do you say "of course"? You didn't tell us what you had or hadn't done, so someone needs to ask.
    It would seem that mozbackup didn't make a legitimate "zip archive", or is buggy and doesn't recognize a good zipped archive.
    Since you have unzipped it manually, you are now in possession of your old profile, so you could follow the usual steps to reinstate an old profile into a new Thunderbird. Essentially, you copy the contents of the old profile over the contents of the new profile.

  • How to restore a song from the "Project File Backups"

    Help! I recorded onto an external harddrive, then copied all the project folders to a different drive. Now, I can't find the project files, but I can find the "Project File Backups" in the Project Folders. I suspect the original project files were saved separately from these folders on the original hard drive, but that is long gone, so I am hoping some one can tell me how to recreate the project from the files in the "Project File Backups" folder.
    ANOTHER CLUE: Stranger still, I can't find any of my logic song files using FILE>OPEN, SPOTLIGHT, nor FINDER- Only those that still populate the "open recent" list.
    Any ideas? Thanks friends!

    Hi there
    Your Project File Backups are simply the previous Project files you've saved. These files are essentially the strip settings, layouts, midi, and pointers to the audio files of your Project.
    If you have trashed the audio files then your are outta luck. This is why you should Consolidate (File-->Project-->Consolidate) all of your projects into one Project Folder on your HD. That way all of your Audio files as well as your sample files and UltraBeat files remain consolidated within a Project Folder. You can then Copy that entire Project folder to another location and have all of the respective files for that Project.
    Sorry for your loss.
    Regards,

  • How do I update template-related files on remote server

    I've created a template as a way to keep the pages consistent across my intranet site but when I need to make changes to the template, I'm unsure how to update the remote files to follow the changes. In order to update locally, I go to Modify>Templates>Update Pages but how do I get my remote files to sync to the local file changes created by the template change? Is there a setting somewhere that allows remote files to follow local file settings that have been changed by a template?

    I don't necessarily need FTP setup since the remote server is local as well (intranet site on web server located in-house). But I've tried syncing the files within the files panel group by doing Site>Synchronize and choosing "Entire Site" and "Put Newer Files to Remote". It then analyzed the files for a while but didn't do any updating after all its analyzing. Is this what you're talking about, Thuy?
