Entire contents of folder missing

I was copying a folder of music (a specific CD that I have on another drive) into my iTunes library and rec'd an error msg (I didn't pay much attention to it). When I looked to see if the music was transferred into my iTunes I noticed that the songs in that folder were missing a link so I checked the folder on my external drive and they are completely gone. The songs are listed in iTunes but the original files are gone (I hadn't yet copied them onto my iPod).
I've never seen anything like this. I'm currently doing a search of my entire system for one of the songs and nothing is coming up. Ideas? What could have happened?

Somehow they ended up in another file. I have no idea how it happened though because I didn't even drag the missing file across that one when I was dragging & dropping. Very frustrating.

  • How to view ENTIRE contents of folder

    I have a clip art folder of over 5 thousand items. When I click on the folder heading, I see a list of all the items. But to see a thumbnail, I have to click on each item.
    How can I open this folder so that I can see ALL of the thumbnails at once, so that I can get a quick scan of what I want?
    Thank you!

    In the Finder open a window in icon view then do command-j and increase the icon size and make sure show icon preview is checked.

  • Load content of folder located in /content/dam/

    Hi,
    I'm trying to load the entire content of folder "/content/dam/myFolder". Is it possible? I've tried this piece of Java code
    File folder = new File("/content/dam/myFolder/");
    File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();
    if(listOfFiles == null){%>
         NULL<%
    }else{%>
        NOT NULL<%
    but I allways get the NULL message.
    Also if I try
    folder.exists();
    it returns false
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi,
    I don't think using the standard File API is a good way to access the repository.
    Instead you should use the repository API to find the Node for your path and its children. For assets you can also extend your code to use the DAM API to get actual asset functionality such as renditions.
    Hope this helps.

  • I recently created a new folder, dragged some items into it, and found that the entire contents of my desktop appeared to be in there as well. This happens every time I make a new folder. Any suggestions?

    I recently created a new folder on my MacBook, dragged some items into it, and found that the entire contents of my desktop appeared to be in the folder as well. This happens every time I make a new folder. Any suggestions?

    Csound1 What Ive been trying to explain is that I have been running bootcamp, I open the app where the first screen is the introduction, i hit continue, the first time I select "download the latest windows support software fromm Apple" then I return and instead select "Install Windows 7." Then hit continue. The third screen is where I "Create a Partition for Windows" I set Windows to 80 gigs then hit INSTALL. As stated before Bootcamp cannot find the install drivers saying "The installer disc could not be found." My windows software is on a USB drive not a disc, I tried using a virtual disc reader to make it appear that the windows software was running on a disc, still no luck. What I would like to know is how to install windows on bootcamp.

  • Printing the entire contents of a folder

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook with Tiger, and I'm trying to print an entire folder of Word documents at the same time. I tried creating a desktop printer so I could drag and drop the files, but my computer just opens a Word window (to the very annoying Word default screen, asking me if I want to create a blank document) for each document I drag in. Is there any way to elegantly print the entire contents of a folder?

    Hi alex!
    Unfortunately, not in OS X.
    But take a look at this utility Printwindow. Corrected Now.
    EDIT: OOPS! That link seems to be broken. I'll see if I can find a new one.

  • Can I send the entire contents of a mailbox to another person as a .zip?

    I have a mailbox folder (MobileMe) that I specifically created in Snow Leopard Mail to segregate several hundred emails from the rest of my inbox. I would like to send the entire contents of this folder to someone via MobileMe - is this possible?
    In other words, how do I insure that someone else who is using Snow Leopard Mail will be able to view and open all the emails in the folder that I want to send to them (as if they were looking at the same folder on my own computer)?
    Is there a file somewhere in my user library that I can simply copy to a new folder, zip, upload to MobileMe, and send someone the download link to that will accomplish my goal?
    Many thanks!

    The mailbox you created in mail will be in your user account folder>Library>Mail>Mailboxes. You should see the MobileMe folder that you created in Mail.
    I'm not sure how it would work if you have attachments involved. If so, you will have a folder for attachments and messages. If so, maybe you would have to copy the whole mailbox.
    If it just has a Messages Folder, then all your messages are there. You can copy and send that.

  • "wdp" folder missing under the bin folder

    Hi All,
    I have no clue whats going on.
    I have been successfully developing my WD application and deploying it on the server.But recenetly i added a few Value Nodes and value attributes to the Component Controller and tried to deploy the application but the deployment terminated in between without any messages.
    I the rebuild the project and saw a lot of errors pertaining to my Import Statements in my java files which i am using for writing my business logic.
    The unresolved import is the Interface file of my component controller.On checking further inside the bin folder in the navigator view I found that the "wdp" folder itself is missing.
    I even deleted all the Value nodes and attributes that i had created but it didnt solve the problem.The "wdp" folder is created internally by the system.
    I even created a new WD project and pasted the contents from the previous project but the same wdp folder went missing again.
    Can someone tell me whats happening. Why is the "wdp" folder missing and how i can regenrate it so that my application may work again.
    i am not being able to slove it at all.
    Warm Regards
    Krishna

    Hi,
    Remove the project from workspace. Import it fresh, check component controller for errors.
    If there are errors,
    a) Go to the location of project in folder strcture
    b) Check properties of files : .project and .classpath
    c) If they are read only, change them explicitly to - read only false
    d) reload & rebuild the project

  • Disappering content in folder portlets (3.0.9)

    I built a page with multiple (3) levels of tabs. On the lower level of these tabs folder portlets and portlets of content areas folders are defined. When developing all looks well in that session and so all content is shown correctly.
    When I log in later with any user, so also as the owner of the page and content, the folder portlets won´t show up! But when I edit the page and hide and unhide the portlets in most times the missing show up again.
    Help me understand the problem and find a solution.
    Thanx, Dolf-Jan Mulder

    May be a problem with caching. I suggest you report this problem to Oracle support for assistance in determining the problem. But first, make sure that you have applied all the 3.0.9 patch sets available on Metalink.

  • BI Content Tab goes missing in between the Project

    Hi Experts,
    I have been finding a very strange behaviour in the BI 7 System of late. The BI Content tab has gone missing suddenly and its been more than a week till now. We have been installing and activating BI Objects regularly and suddenly one day its gone blank. I am a Tech Manager and was surprised when my consultant told me that BI Content tab is missing. I wanted to check if anyone else has faced this problem and if so whats the way out. Pls also let me know what are the reasons behind this so as to not repeat these mistakes in future. Would appreciate an immediate response - Swami.

    Swami,
    This is surprising.
    Check, whether you are able to access BI content from menu (RSA1->Goto-> Install BI Content)
    Adjust the screen resolution and check whether the BI content tab is hidden.
    Also check in tcode : RSORBCT.

  • How do I upload the entire Edge Animate folder to the cloud?

  • Applications folder missing from Dock and Finder

    I was a little confused to find my applications folder missing from the Dock on my Macbook Pro today - I can't think of anything which I may have done to actively cause it to go missing. I opened up the finder and dragged the applications icon from the LHS of the finder onto the RHS of the dock, but rather than reappearing in the doc it just disappeared.
    When I went back to the finder to try again I discovered that it had vanished from there as well. I ran a search in the finder for "applications" and found the applications folder in the results, but when I try to open it I get the following error message "The alias “Applications” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found."
    Does anyone have any ideas on what might have caused this or on how I get my Applications folder back on the Dock? Any help would be really appreciated!

    The Applications folder on the dock is a shortcut, or more specifically, an alias.
    It sounds like what you did was to drag the Applications item from the Finder sidebar...which is also an alias. By dragging it from the sidebar, it's as if you'd dragged an icon off the dock. It poofs and disappears.
    To get them back, open a Finder window and navigate to Macintosh HD (or whatever you've named your hard drive). At the root level of the drive lives your Applications folder (the actual folder, not an alias). Drag that one to the sidebar to replace that shortcut, and drag it again to the Dock to replace that shortcut as well.
    If you click on Macintosh HD and all you see are System, Library, and Users and have no Applications folder, then something terrible has happened.

  • Ipod dumps entire content and must be restored and synced each time.

    Second Generation iPod Nano. iTunes on Dell XPS410, Windows Vista.
    Battery depleted. Plugged Nano into computer. Got a "may be corrupted screen; try restoring"♦Computer recognizes Nano; I restore and screen confirms successful restoration and tells me to sync. Sync takes place and completes successfully however my Library for the Nano device shows in "graytone" and cannot be accessed. I eject the Nano; unplug it from the computer and it works fine. Once I again plug it into the computer, everything dumps out of the Nano and I have to start the Restore/Sync process all over again. Each time the Nano is unplugged and replugged to the computer iTunes it dumps its entire content!
    Would most appreciate any suggestions!

    I have tried connecting the ipod via the front and back USb 2.0 jacks on my desktop. I have only one external drive connected to the computer. Doesn't matter whether I remove it or not, the same problem occurs. I do not have a network. My drive letter for the ipod is letter z so it is not disk recognition which is a problem. 1/3 of my music comes from I-tunes, the rest I rip from my Cd's (like Linkin Park, Slipknot, Dir en grey). I only used about 650 MB worth of the ipods 30 gig drive capacity. Doesn't matter which version of the itunes software I use, it gives me the same problem. The recovery loop occured after just after 2 weeks of purchasing it from the apple storeand I took it back with only 12 songs in it. The restored it and 10 days later, the same problem occured. Recently, the ipod has been entering the recovery mode much more frequently prompting me to believe the hard drive is malfunctioning.
    I have scanned my computer and the Ipod with everything from Norton, AVG, McCafee, and trendmicro and found no viruses, bugs, worms, etc.
    Any suggestions to help me resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ice

  • Albums folder in iPhoto Library folder missing

    The Albums folder in iPhoto Library folder missing. This means when I try to sync photos to my iPod (video) in iTunes, none of my photo albums show up (though I can seclect a specific folder useing year, month day, etc.). It also mens that I must navagate through the date folders to find photos when trying to attach them to e-mails.
    I am running a G5 with the latest version of OSX, iPhoto, iTunes.
    How do I recreat this folder?
    Thankd for any help.
    Cheers__ Heath

    Hi Heath,
    iPhoto 5 now stores the Album information in a data xml file. The Albums folder within the iPhoto Library folder is no longer used. At some point, usually after a rebuild, you will no longer have that folder in the Finder.
    If you need to access photos from an album it is very difficult for a third party application to navigate the iPhoto Library in order to find the photo you need. You will have to know the date of import in order to find the photo.
    There are some third party applications that can read the xml file and can navigate the iPhoto library and show you the Albums. Hopefully more applications will be revised to read this file.
    Until then you will have to Share/Export the photos to the desktop. You can then navigate to the desktop to use the photos (example: web uploading from online photo site)
    If your application supports drag and drop, you can drag the photo from an open iPhoto Library window into your application.
    For email you can also use the email icon within iPhoto to open a message with the highlighted photo attached.
    You can also use spotlight to find images in an Album...
    This is what I have done using Spotlight to find my images that are in iPhoto albums without opening iPhoto..
    In iPhoto, select the album, then select all, go to Photos/batch change.
    Change the comments to text. In the text field I put the name of the Album.
    Do this for each album.
    Close iPhoto.
    Open Spotlight and put in the name of the Album ( you have to remember the names of the albums or have then written down)
    In the spotlight search results. click on "show all"
    Under "Images" click on the "xx more" to show all the images in the album.
    Make sure you have it in icon view, the icon view box is the last one on the blue images line.
    Now you can control click on the image to "reveal in finder", open in iPhoto or Mail, etc.
    I am not sure if this is going to make you happy and it is a little more work, but you can find images in albums and even view them in a slideshow (by clicking the play arrow at the end of the Images highlighted blue line) using Spotlight, all without opening iPhoto.
    One important thing to know is you can set up a graphic program to be an external editor (when you double click an image in the library} such as PhotoShop or PS Elements. You set up that within iPhoto Preferences. Just make sure you save the image flattened and with the same name. The edits will then be relected in iPhoto when you hit "save".
    Two Apple kbs for you to read
    Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
    About the iPhoto Library folder
    Also, when you choose a folder to sync for your iPod, choose iPhoto in the drop down menu in iTunes, then choose the Album you want to sync. Do not choose a folder on your hard drive and then the Albums folder in the iPhoto Library folder.

  • How do I mark the entire contents of a RichTextBox (gRTbxInfo) with a background color of white?

    How do I mark the entire contents of a RichTextBox (gRTbxInfo) with a background color of white?
    I have code that finds / marks words with a different color.  Now I want to remove that color.  I've started with the following, but cannot complete it.
        //int iLength = gRTbxInfo.Length
        int iLength = 10;
        TextRange trText = new TextRange(gRTbxInfo.Document.ContentStart, gRTbxInfo.Document.ContentEnd);
        TextPointer tpStart = trText.Start.GetInsertionPosition(LogicalDirection.Forward);
        TextPointer tpSelectionStart = tpStart.GetPositionAtOffset(0, LogicalDirection.Forward);
        TextPointer tpSelectionEnd = tpSelectionStart.GetPositionAtOffset(iLength, LogicalDirection.Forward);
        TextRange tpSelection = new TextRange(tpSelectionStart, tpSelectionEnd);
        tpSelection.ApplyPropertyValue(TextElement.BackgroundProperty, new SolidColorBrush(Colors.White));

    Isn't that just
    TextRange tr = new TextRange(rtb.Document.ContentStart, rtb.Document.ContentEnd);
    tr.ApplyPropertyValue(TextElement.BackgroundProperty, Brushes.White);
    Hope that helps.
