Corrupted Folder

I have a corrupted Preference folder that is hiding a bunch of preferences. I moved it to the trash but it isn't allowing me to delete it. It says it is being used. How can I delete this?

Shutdown & restart. Then you should be able to trash.
Or startup using your Tiger DVD & then trash it.

Hi Gaoooooo,
The backup folder you are referencing is located in the storage area in which your itunes program resides. Meaning it's typically on a storage device such as a laptop or desktop computer.
You are saying that due to space limitation your backup foler is corrupted???
Your backup folder is listed in your itunes program on the stoarge device in which it was created. If you will go to the area in itunes that provides for 'preferences' clicking on preferences takes you to an area where you will see applicatoins one listed as 'devices' once clicking on devices this shows an area in which the backups are listed.
The device itself will not corrupt your backup due to storage limitations. The device sends the data to the stoarage area and it is there that the backup is created.
IF you backed up your device to an itunes program on a storage device such as a laptop or desktop the backup will still be there waiting for you to restore that backup to your device.
Sorry is this is too long.

Can not delete corrupted folder

Hi there,
I'm using SharePoint Foundation 2010 and am having problem with one of the site collections.
It's a simple 'Team site'. The problem is that I can not delete the certain folder, which seems to be corrupted.
Symptoms:
if I try to delete it I receive error "Access Denied", even though I use farm admin account.
if I try to 'Manage permissions', I receive error "Can not complete this action".
if I try to 'Edit Properties' (rename library) I receive error "Access Denied".
'View Properties' works good.
Looking in WebDav, the folder doesn't exist.
if I try to create a new folder with the same name within the same root library, I receive error that folder already exists.
Steps taken:
1. the entire site collection was backed up (using Backup-SPSite) and restored (Restore-SPSite) to the newly-created site collection within another Web App
and content database - the corrupted folder was carried over and the issue remained the same.
2. tried to use .NET methods to delete this folder but received error:
$rabbit = Get-SPWeb "https://site1.sharepoint.local/BD"
$damaged_folder = $rabbit.GetFolder("Services/Technical Team/Mit")
attempted to delete:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $damaged_folder.Delete()
Exception calling "Delete" with "0" argument(s): "Cannot remove file "Mit". Error Code: 16389."
attempted to move to Recycle Bin:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $damaged_folder.Recycle()
Exception calling "Recycle" with "0" argument(s): "Cannot remove file "Mit". Error Code: 16389."
Looking at the properties of $damaged_folder, I've noticed that property 'EffectiveRawPermissions' was blank, while for the normal folder it was set to 'FullMask'
I've tried to update it but received an error:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $damaged_folder.EffectiveRawPermissions = "FullMask"
"EffectiveRawPermissions" is a ReadOnly property.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am facing the same
problem.
I tried to delete the folder with a powershell command and with a console application. The result is :
Exception calling "Delete" with "0" argument(s): "Cannot remove file "Folder". Error Code: 16389."
At line:1 char:77
+ [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity]::RunWithElevatedPrivileges({$folder.Delete<<<< ()})
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : DotNetMethodException
The last possibility it's maybe to remove lines on the database!
Does anyone has triedthis solution?
Thanks in adavance.

Corrupted folder in Music - Nokia 5230

I have a Nokia 5230. Some time ago, I ripped a CD and copied it to my Music folder on the phone in a folder named, let's say, "Joe Blow". Somewhere along the line "Joe Blow" became corrupted. I tried to delete it but was unable to. I tried to write over it and the tracks all appeared under the album name and artist name but so did the corrupted files. I was finally able to again delete the music tracks and leave the corrupted files in the artist folder. I was also finally able to rename the "Joe Blow" folder using an old version of PC Suite. I renamed the "Joe Blow" folder with the corrupted files in it "zzzjunk" to put it at the bottom of my Music folder. I have tried to delete this folder and the files within it using an old PC Suite version, the most up to date Nokia Suite version, OVI player, the File Manager on the phone itself, and raw file mode in Windows XP and LINUX using the terminal. Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Aha. I found THIS THREAD and used CheckDisk in Windows Vista. CheckDisk found and corrected the corrupted folder, "zzzjunk". It left the useless content in a contiguous file named "zzzjunk". I was able to delete the file "zzzjunk" left by CheckDisk.

AVCHD corrupt folder structure? crashes iMovie 9 ... repair?

Hi,
I shot almost 300 clips with a Canon HF11 a while ago. Tried importing to iMovie 9 (latest update) and crashed every time I mounted the camera.
The clips play fine in the camera's internal memory, I backed them up. In fact, I returned the HF11 and bought an HF20 and dragged/dropped the AVCHD folder onto the HF20 and they play fine internally too...
Also crash my iMovie when I mount the camera though... no chance of importing the clips to the library.
Some people told me the AVCHD folder is corrupt, maybe I pushed record again too fast before the camera could have processed one of the clips, etc.
I have done a few test shots after cleaning the internal memory and guess what? The new files import very easily, plug and import...
So, is there a way to FIX/REPAIR/REBUILD the data on the AVCHD folder so I can import to iMovie with all clip data, etc.? I know I can convert to AIC with Toast Titanium... but that would mean losing the metadata (dates in which each clip was recorded)...
Thanks...

You might try Voltaic HD to see if it can read and convrt the files to Apple Intermediate Codec.
After you have salvaged your files, reformat your camera's hard drive using the controls on the camera.

Corrupt folder in cFolders

Hello we have a folder in cFOlders that can't be opened, deleted, touched. We get "Technical error."
Is there any way to 'fix' corrupt folders?

This is kind of trial code please run this for sample data..
then after successful run may be u can try for your problematic folder..
you can get the col_id topic_id and other things from the URL of the page or
by right clicking on the URL link and properties...
What i am doing in the code is using the existing COPY AND PASTE functionality in the cFolders
to copy the docs across folders...

Corrupted folder structure

I am using my TimeCapsule to store the backup but also to store iTunes/iPhoto libaries. This was adviced by AppleStore to have this setup with a MacBook Air. And was working perfectly till today.
After tranferring a move to iTunes the connection was lost and both iTunes as iPhone libaries are corrupted on the TimeCapsule.
Folders are shortly shown and disappear again.
If I open these folders in Terminal and perform an ls -al a message is shown:
ls: .DS_Store: No such file or directory
ls: Music: No such file or directory
Same for the iPhoto folder
ls: .localized: No such file or directory
ls: iPhoto-bibliotheek: No such file or directory
Can anybody suggest how this can be repaired?

This is really serious.. and it is impossible to repair the library in its current situation.
Sorry but I think the Apple store people are simply wrong.. iphoto is not reliable on a network drive.. what has happened is standard problem. Check in the iphoto discussion area.
What is worse is I guess you have no backup.. completely defeating the whole point of the TC.
What I would do is remove the hard disk from the TC.
This will void warranty but you have no choice.
Plug it into a usb to sata cradle and plug into a computer. You can then use disk utility to attempt to repair the library.
A half way between that.. you might try a full archive of the TC.. the option is in the airport utility latest versions.. you will need a 2TB (or 3TB) USB drive plugged into the TC and it might do a straight copy even if the library is corrupted. Normally corrupted files will not copy but a direct transfer might not care.

Any ideas as how to recover a corrupt folder it?

I have a folder on my desk top that will not open. It contains many different types of files that bI really need.

Try using disk utility to repair your hard drive first, also repair your disk permissions. If you are still having trouble try using Diskwarrior for repair your directories.

HT1660 Cleanup Corrupt Folder and Files

I've really screwed up my iTunes Files and folders. I've looked for "Clean Up" software to get it straightened out but none exists for the problems I have. When I open iTunes I get my music list. However when I go to CCleaner>Tools>File Finder>C:\** and search I see songs that are duplicated in many files and or folders with their path. Sometimes as many as 10. Many of these aren't showing on my iTunes song list, when I open it on my PC. First Question-Is it possible to move these songs shown in CCleaner to the proper iTunes folder to reestablish them on my iTunes song list when iTunes opens. If someone uses CCleaner, and has a "basic" songlist with just the song and maybe artwork, can you look with CCLeaner as I discussed above and tell me what song is listed an what the path is so I can use this as an example. Second Question- Can I use this list of songs with their path and move them to one or more folders to recreate them on my iTunes Song List? Third Question- I have all the songs I want on my songlist already on my iPod, and I'm being careful not to Sync my iPod and loose them, but can you tell me what settings to check and where they are to be sure I don't loose them from my iPod. Fourth Question- ( Quite possibly the easiest to do) I had the idea of cleaning up all my iTunes on the computer, erase EVERYTHING then do a clean reinstall of iTunes, then use a third party software to rebuild my iTune on my PC from my iPod, BUT when I used Revo uninstaller and even did an advanced cleanup, all my songs reinstalled themselves when I reinstalled iTunes. How do you do a COMPLETE new clean install of iTunes so I can do the transfer from my iPod onto a brand new clean reinstall of iTunes on my PC?
I would still be interested in how a song shows itself in CCleaner file finder. How many entries for a song and what file paths are listed, for a given song.
Also with a clean reinstall how can I recover ALL my downloaded music?

Hi Douglas,
I'm getting an almost identical error in state messages reported by one of my BDPs:
SQL MESSAGE: spProcessStateReport - Error: Message processing encountered a SQL error 232 at record 1 for TopicType 900: "Arithmetic overflow error for type int, value = 2266061824.000000.", Line 0 in procedure ""
We have ~60 BDPs and they are all running the same hardware/Server OS, which is a Buffalo NAS with 2008 R2 Storage Server.
The solution proposed below is not a viable option and says nothing about the cause or solution of the error.
I get the feeling that there is some data in the .smx that SQL doesn't like, but I have not idea what or how to fix it.
Did you ever find a resolution to this? Yours is the only post I've come across that described this problem.

ITunes folder corrupted - advice needed please!

Hi, I have had problems with iTunes breaking songs and losing album artwork for several months now and I have come to the conclusion that I must delete the 'iTunes' folder in 'My Music' (I have tried much else to no avail). I am almost 100% certain that is the route of the corruption. The problem is, although I can put up with losing my playlists and play counts, I have an iPhone and obviously need to retain its settings and apps. Is there a way that I can go about deleting this folder, while retaining these things?
Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks,
James

Seems like noone has the answer about corrupted files - iTune creates a real mess in organising music files you have collected - I believe it is iTune the cause of all corruption problem with your music folder (iTune shoud never organise anything on a windows platform) - if you have found a solution to access the corrupted folder and recover all files I am interested - then adios iTune - don't want to use it anymore - liked it - now despise it
Bad iTune

I can open every folder except one.

So I can open every folder without a problem but then I try to open one and Bridge crashes. I've tried deleting and adding it back in but that didn't work. Any advice would be great!

I've tried deleting and adding it back in but that didn't work
Try creating a new folder (use your computer system for this) and copy or move the contents of the problem folder to this new one.
It can be a permission problem for that folder or just a corrupted folder, it happens sometimes.

Reconstruct -m showing corrupt mailboxes, Version not recognized

Hi,
Using Sun Messaging server version:
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.2-4.03 (built Sep 22 2005)
libimta.so 6.2-4.03 (built 04:37:42, Sep 22 2005)
SunOS mailstore-7 5.10 Generic_137137-09 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-240
As a normal monthly maintenance task I perform a reconstruct -m on our mailstores, but this time, I got back a LOT of errors of users with corrupt mailboxes.
The next step is I tried to take users (1 at a time) with corrupted mailboxes and use reconstruct -ifr /user/jreed7, that looks successful:
/opt/SUNWmsgsr/sbin/reconstruct -ifr user/jreed7
user/jreed7/INBOX
Reconstructing...
user/jreed7/Trash
Reconstructing...
user/jreed7: fixed quota root usage
Then I tried using reconstruct -p primary -u jreed7 -m and this was not so successful:
/opt/SUNWmsgsr/sbin/reconstruct -p primary -u jreed7 -m
user/jreed7
user/jreed7/Trash
=user/jreed7
=user/jreed7/Trash
[08/Jan/2010:15:25:23 -0900] mailstore-7 reconstruct[9581]: Store Critical: Mailbox corrupted, Version not recognized: user/jreed7/Sent

?user/jreed7/Drafts: Invalid mailbox
I'm not sure what to do next. I have seen posts similar, however, not the same as my issue.

PEP64 wrote:
that seemed to work. I don't understand why reconstruct -ifr (which zeros out the idx files) then forces reconstruct on all folders in the mailbox didn't work.The "reconstruct -r" command will only process folders that exist in the store database. The "reconstruct -m" process appears to have removed the record of the mailbox from the store database due to the afore mentioned corruption.
Running "mboxutil -c" on the mailbox re-creates the record.
This is why I suggested running "reconstruct -r" before "reconstruct -m".
Unfortunately I don't have any of the users passwords to be able to log in as them to make sure they can get to the once corrupted folder(s).
Thanks again for your expertise Shane. I didn't spool the output of the reconstruct -m on all 35,000 mailboxes because I've never seen this problem until just recently. The list is quite long, so I might not hear anything else about this for a while. It is always a good idea to capture the output of reconstruct -m/recontstruct -r commands for future reference.
There is 1 that I was not able to recreate and I believe it might have something to do with the fact that the name of the folder Family and Friends has spaces in it.You can quote the folder name e.g.
./mboxutil -c 'user/blah/Family and Friends'Regards,
Shane.

Corrupted thumbnails??

I use Lightroom 2 to import photos onto my Mac Pro (Snow Leopard OS), then move to Adobe Bridge (most current version) to browse and choose which to open into Photoshop CS4. On a recent shoot, about 5 to 10% of the images (taken on three different compact flash cards) from my Canon 5D Mark II had corrupted thumbnails in Bridge. They either showed no image, just the CR2 RAW logo, or the image showed with a significant portion of it blocked by random colored vertical and horizontal lines. The photos all were fine in Lightroom. I closed Bridge, threw away the cache, and reopened and all was well.
My question is what is going on? Getting rid of my cache is a pain, because I have to wait many minutes for many files to reappear in Bridge. Is there a way to prevent this from happening again? Could it have been related to the fact that I imported 700 or so very large files (RAW files from a 21 megapixel camera are 25 to 30 MB each)? Thanks!!

I closed
Bridge, threw away the cache, and reopened and all was well.
You first could have used the option to Purge cache for folder using the
Tools/cache menu instead of deleting the whole cache folder.
I use Lightroom 2 to import photos onto my Mac Pro (Snow Leopard OS), then
move to Adobe Bridge (most current version) to browse and choose which to open
into Photoshop CS4.
If you only use LR to import your files why not use Bridge for this?, You
can add several options for it in Adobe Photo Downloader that is in Bridge
(get photo's from camera). Explore the advanced option window.
My question is what is going on? Getting rid of my cache is a pain, because I
have to wait many minutes for many files to reappear in Bridge. Is there a way
to prevent this from happening again?
It might have been a corrupt folder but it might have also been something
else. I tried using LR for import files (include to convert as DNG as I'm
used to for all my Raw files) but have no problems with viewing them in
Bridge. Personally I prefer the renaming options in the Photo Downloader but
that's my opinion )
Could it have been related to the fact
that I imported 700 or so very large files (RAW files from a 21 megapixel
camera are 25 to 30 MB each)? Thanks!!
I really doubt that, (I have the same files, did not try this amount but do
work with this amount, and more in Bridge without this problems) unless you
did something in between with removing card from reader in an incorrect way
or closed one of the apps during caching but still can't imagine that to be
the cause, or if you copied the files manual to an other location, etc. etc.
Nevertheless you might consider to refresh the preferences for Bridge (hold
down option key while restarting Bridge and choose reset preferences)

When I distill Quark Passport files the PDF corrupts some fonts

This doesn't happen to all the text - sometimes bold text changes to normal and italic becomes normal. This has only happened recently though. In the past files have distilled OK. Quark is in Classic and Acrobat Distiller is in 10.4.11

As Don mentioned - could be a font problem. Corrupt fonts, font cache - even a corrupt folder.

OS X won't install to hard drive after downloading

I may be having hard drive problems and may need a new drive but I wanted to try everything before that. I could not boot up this morning. Just the grey scene and spinning wheel. I called tech support and was instructed to go through a disk repair and repair permissions. The disk repair itself took almost 5 hours. During the scheduled call back with tech support, I was instructed to download and install Mountain Lion, which took about 4 hours. This is where I'm having problems.....the Install OS X screen keeps showing "installing OS X on the disk "Macintosh HD". Time remaining 34 minutes. The barbershop sign shows no movement and the time remaining stays on 34 minutes. Is this indicative of a failed hard drive in need of replacement?

Hello
I have this powerbook g4 running Ubuntu Linux (or it was). Now I wanted to try the OS X so I checked if the firmware had to be updated (on apple.com), and if the current OS X would install on my powerbook. It seemed all was good to go..
But when I try to boot the install cd/dvd it loads the apple logo and the flashlooking 'loading-circle' just to make me feel like success , THEN it either crashed with a distorted apple logo or gives me this 'Corrupt-folder/Kernel panic' logo.
I tried almost everything to fix it, I've read half the internet info on this topic - all with no luck!
Remember I'm new to mac so I might have overlooked something, somewhere..
Can anyone please help me out - I want to have a look at the OS X
