Find the file location of  picture using Photos app?

I could not find the original photo file location anymore using Photos app. Anybody?

I have the same question. In iPhoto I used the Menu command to "Locate in Finder," and if the image had been edited, I would have the choice of locating either the original file or the modified file.
In Photos I see there is a menu item File>Show Referenced File in Finder, but it hasn't been selectable for me from any view I've found so far, so I'm not confident it's even meant to do the same thing. I would like to get to my files outside of Apple's software, do I need to opt out altogether?

    I need to find the file location for my iCal in iCloud for my Mac. I inadvertently changed the file location in Terminal and need to restore the proper location but do not know how to locate that information. Any help is much appreciated,

    You should find "Preferences" in your Edit menu in iTunes.

  • "system cannot find the file specified" when launching a java app

    Hi,
    we are receiving an error message saying "The system cannot find the file specified" when launching a java app on a server. Exactly the same configuration on another server does not give the same problem.
    The dialog box with the error message only presents one button - OK - and after pressing the button the app continues to run normally. This however is a big problem for us as we are trying to convert the apps into system services using the wrapper (http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org).
    Note: the problem exibits itself with and without the use of the wrapper.
    I am not very comfortable about reinstalling the JRE on a production server. Is there any way to see what file it is missing? Debug options or something similar?
    The JRE in question is 1.4.2_06. Many thanks in advance for your answers.

    if not setting Post-Processing option results in a cryptic error why doesn't Adobe do one of at least three things?
    1. Don't let user click Export on Export dialog if nothing's selected for Post-Processing.
    2. Default Post-Processing to Do Nothing
    3. Give the user a hint as to what the problem is when the error occurs instead of issuing cryptic error message.
    Allowing this error to persist for so long is ridiculous.

  • Finding the file location and address on Mac

    I have filed away a short video (of me crossing the Millau Viaduct on my motorcycle) but I can't find the file's location in order to attach it to an email. Spotlight finds the file and I can play it but I can't get at it to attach to an email.....grrrrrr! I even tried making an Alias but that won't attach - even more grrrrr.

    The first thing I'd try is to select the file in spotlight and press command-return to reveal it in the Finder. Then you could drag it into a mail message. (You can also press option-command to see a path to the file displayed at the bottom of the little preview window.)

    I can not export photos onto DVD. After I click export, close iPhoto, click Finder, At this point I can't find the file to burn. (copy to be used on Windows) Sorry for the lame question....new to mac

    So it sounds like you are trying to burn a DVD with photos on it so the photos can be either transferred to or displayed on a Windows PC, is that correct?
    For the purposes of this I am going to assume you are using iPhoto '11.
    Gather the photos you want to burn to DVD in one album in iPhoto. This is not absolutely necessary but it sure makes things easier for me.
    Select that album, then go to the File menu and select Export...
    In the dialog that shows up, select the File Export tab. Select the setting you want to use for export. Click the Export button.
    Another dialog will show up. Set the location to Desktop and click the New Folder button. Name the folder something nice and descriptive and click the Create button.
    Click the OK button. Quit iPhoto as the rest of this work will be done in the Finder.
    You will now have a folder on your desktop with that nice descriptive name. Find it and select it. Go to the File menu and from it select Burn "Descriptive folder name" to Disc...
    Insert a blank DVD when prompted.
    Let the finder complete the work and eject the disc afterwards.
    That's it. Best of luck.

    Hi paulo23,
    ''Would it make a difference if I would delete firefox altogether and try fresh?''
    It could not be ruled out it may help.
    A clean reinstall may solve the issue and so could be tried but not as a first step and take care with what you do.
    #First I suggest you '''back up your current profile'''. <br />Do this before trying even a new profile. You want to make sure you do not lose data such as bookmarks passwords or settings, or if you do that you may recover them. Put the backup folders and files somewhere safe outside Firefox profile or program paths. (Your Desktop will do)
    #* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    #Next just try a clean additional '''test profile'''. And when it comes to trying to print again use safe mode, and make sure any and all Firefox Plugins are disabled.
    #* [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles#w_creating-a-profile]]'''_creating-a-profile'''
    #* If you are new to using multiple Firefox profiles then because we do not document this in the Sumo KB (other than for Thunderbird) you may be interested in reading my tips in two adjacent posts [/questions/990973#answer-548376] & [/questions/990973#answer-548377]
    #* Also see

    #** [[Disable or remove Add-ons#w_how-to-disable-plugins]]'''_how-to-disable-plugins'''
    # If that failed to help then it is worth trying a '''clean install''' of Firefox and that involves trashing the firefox ''Application'' (Windows: deleting the program files) NOT the Firefox Profile.

  • When I try to open a picture in iphoto a message tells me the file cannot be found. How do I find the file?

    When I try to open a picture in iphoto a message tells me the file cannot be found. How do I find the file?  It does not happen with all the pictures.

    Is you library a "referenced" or "managed" library:
    That message is generated when a library is a "referenced" library and the location of the files have been moved from where they were when originally imported into iPhoto.
    Are the photos that this is happening to in the same Event(s)?
    What system are your running?  Where is your library located? How much free space do you have on your boot drive?

    My computer is saying it can't find the file 'iTunes64.msi' when I try to update or redownload iTunes how do I fix this? I've tried just about everything I can think of. I am using a dell laptop running windows 7 and have tried changing the file location to run the update in all of my iTunes files as well as when I've tried reinstalling it.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I just got a new Mac Mini, and now when I try to import photos into Lightroom, iPhoto try to load them first, then Lightroom can't find the files.  Big problem.  What to do?

    I just got a new Mac Mini, and now when I try to import photos into Lightroom, iPhoto ties to load them first, then Lightroom can't find the files.  Big problem.  What to do?

    Simple:
    File -> Export to get your photos out of the iPhoto Library. In the Export dialogue you can set the kind to Original and you'll get back exactly what you put in.
    Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    Once exported, you can then trash the iPhoto Library - just drag it from the Pictures Folder to the trash and empty it.
    After that, if you're entirely neurotic about it, just put the iPhoto app in the trash and empty it.
    Regards

  • I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a General Failure box stating 'The system cannot find the file specified' yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a box stating
    General Failure. The URL was "http:// etc etc".The system cannot find the file specified.
    Yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I am having the exact same problem with Windows 7 Professional. Out of the blue, this issue just started a few months ago when running my monthly Windows Backup where I have used a USB drive for the last 3 years, and never ever had this issue before. Most
    of the solutions listed on the Microsoft websites and answers deal with
    "Restore" functions, not the
    "Backup" itself. I have 3 folders being skipped during the backup.
    So I went and changed the Backup from "let Microsoft choose files, directories, etc" to "Let me choose". I included the files and folders that were being skipped, and ran the "Backup" again, and got the same error message,
    but the files that were skipped the first time were "Backed up" finally. This issue is somehow related to my "Libraries"?
    The 3 backup problems are:
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book Recordings. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book CD Label-Cover Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book MP3 Tag Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Did a "checkdisk" - no problems. Ran a program to fix registry - no problems. All updates up to date. I guess I could eliminate these folders from the Backup folders in the
    Library, and just choose them under the "Users" locations, and be done with it. But I really want to understand this, and fix it. This is within Windows 7 and may be related to Windows Media Player or
    some recent Windows update.  Thanks.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    I've had MS Office:mac 2011 on my imac for around 18 months now.  Outlook has just disappeared and when I find the file and open it it tells me that there is a problem and I may need to re-install it.  I've just done this using the installation disc which, then said the installation had been successful.
    Outlook is still not working.  Can anyone please advise me on what to do next.

    Remove MS Office 2011 completely (here are instructions) and reinstall it.
    It's not a simple or fast process but it is important to follow all of the steps in order to get all the files that Office scatters around. This will not affect your data files, only MS Office and its preferences.
