Folders on the root level of boot drive

Hello. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if there are long-term or detrimental consequences to keeping a folder called "C/" located on the root directory of my boot drive in Snow Leopard.
An explanation: I work at a television station, and one of our video distribution systems is switching from a satellite-based system to a web-based client and download distribution. The online Java client for this distribution method defaults to setting a download folder of "C:/Downloads" which is clearly more suitable for Windows than OS X. If the default remains unchanged when a mac user begins a download, a folder is created on the boot drive called "C/". Inside that folder is another folder called "Downloads".
If there are no ill effects to be had from keeping this folder structure on the boot drive permanently, I'll likely create a folder action that will simply move the mpeg files from "Downloads" to a server that will automatically convert the mpeg files to something more suitable for Final Cut Pro. The editors in my shop won't have to worry about changing the download folder EVERY TIME and manually moving the downloaded file to our conversion server.
Thank you to anyone who can provide some input on this. For the moment, I've gone ahead and set this up on a test machine, and I'm waiting to see if it blows up...:-)

Boy would I ever love that!
Since the distribution is being handled by a company that also has an integrated editing/playout system for video, I imagine it was designed to favor that system rather than our current Final Cut setup. I'll make it work either way, it's just whether I'll be happy about it or not.
I'll keep this thread open for a couple days, see if I can get some feedback on it. If at the end of a week, I haven't found any problems of my own, and can't get a definite yes or no from anyone else, I'll leave a follow-up and mark it solved.

Bad idea to create new folders at the root level?

I have several clients who have been Mac user's since OS 8 and even earlier. When they transitioned to OS X they did not learn to use their local home folder properly and they continue to maintain a very cluttered folder structure at the root level of their hard drive. I believe one advantage they probably find is when sharing files the files are easy for other network users to find when they log on to each other's computers. But, I thought I read somewhere at one time that this was bad practice. Can anyone point me to a good article which explains the OS X file system that I can give these people to read? Or, am I worrying about nothing? I'm setting up an OS X Server for them so they can use Time Machine to backup - will the time machine backups contain all of these files and folders stored outside each user's folder?

I can't answer the first part, but yes, Time Machine will back-up the entire system (other than some specific system files, caches, logs, trash, etc.), unless they're specifically excluded via TM > Options (I suspect you wanted a different answer -- sorry).

How do I bring sub files and folders back to "Root Level?"

Hi Everybody,
I have a frustrating situation.. Time Machine wouldn't work on my iMac that was dying, so the only thing i could do is use Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) to back it up. However, I did this wrong.
With CCC, you are supposed to have created a GUID partition on a bootable external HD and backed up your Mac HD to that, so everything is at the Root Level, ie. /Application /Library /System /Users and all the other folders and invisibles ie. .usr .var .tmp ... then you can boot off this external HD and reinstall your system.
I did not know any of this, i thought CCC was like Time Machine, so I just made another folder on my External HD that was labeled "CCC Weekly Backup". Its in an exact replica of my HD, it is just not at "Root Level".
It is on my External HD "Erik 2012 Home" then inside a folder called "CCC Weeky Backup."
How can I move it, so that it isn't in the folder "CCC Weekly Backup"?? and just inside External HD "Erik 2012 Home" ??
Every time I do this with CCC, it just keeps putting my files inside that "CCC Weekly Backup" I can't just copy them to the "Erik 2012 Home" cause I don't know how to select the invisibles. Even when I just select my Application Folder and .var .tmp /Library it *always* puts them in a folder "CCC Weekly Backup".
ANy help would be appreciated. Our daughter was born in July and all her pics and videos are on there cause I started using CCC in June, cause my Time Machine stopped working then. So all of June, July and Aug. are in these CCC Backups I can't restore
Thanks so much, as always you guys are the best here!

Hi Manvir,
For troubleshooting your issue, please go to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\ find your Web Application (represented by a port number), then delete an unknown folder created by sharepoint, namely vti_cnf from all the folders and sub-folders in
your web application.

Can't write to root lvl of boot drive in 10.6

after doing some installs and uninstalls I find that my MacBook Pro with 10.6 will not allow me to save anything to the root level of it's internal hard drive. (Can't create a new folder either) error msg "...could not be saved, you don't have permission"
When I do a Get Info on the HD my name (I'm admin) not listed in Sharing & Permissions, yet a Get Info on an indiv folder will list my name w/ read & write permission. What do you think is going on and how can I fix this. (Yes I repaired permissions with Disk First Aid to no avail)
Thanks,
Paul

If you launch the Terminal utility and run this command
ls -l -d /
what do you see? (Those are lower-case letters "L".) On my Mac I see this:

What is root level of backup drive

I have instructions to transfer backups from current backup drive to new backup drive. It says to drag the current backup drive to the ROOT LEVEL of the new backup drive. What is the root level?
Thanks,
Kathy

That is not the proper method. Here is the right way to do that:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the New backup drive. Source means the Old backup drive.

Auto start processes at the root level

I am running a 10.3 server with both squid and dansguardian. Everything is running very smooth. But I don't know how to get both of them to start at boot. If I have a power failure and the system restarts, I want it to start both squid and danguardian on the root level automatically. I don't want the server to do an auto login with those just in the start up items. I hope I have made my request clear enough.

You need to create a StartupItem in /System/Library/StartupItems
Look at the existing StartupItems for a template of how to set them up - you need a directory for your script, plus a startup script and a StartupParameters.plist file. For most cases it's simplest to copy one of the existing items and edit it to your need.

How to move the photos from my boot drive to a newly installed hard drive?

- regarding iPhoto's storage, etc.... Where is the iPhoto library located anyway? And - how to transfer it to the brand new hard drive?
I want to add a ned hard drive just to keep the media there, so I would like to transfer all the GBs worth of photos (the whole iPhoto library or - what folder, really?).
What do I need to do in order to accomplish this task?, and assuming that there is no problem moving all the photos (as I understand it would mean Originals, Modified & Data) - can I then just delete the original iPhoto Library (but from where?) somewhere on my boot drive?
Basically - I want to move all the photos from my boot drive to the newly installed hard drive, and after a successful move, I'd like to delete all the same photos from its original location (the boot drive).

One addition to Larry's steps: make sure the external drive is formatted OS X Extended (journaled) and have it set to ignore ownership as seen here:
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Azure File Storage - Creating a directory at the root level using REST

I have a Xamarin / iOS project, and looking to use Azure File Share as a back-end.
With that in mind, I'm playing around with the REST API and have generally got things working with (a) Blobs and (b) Account-level access to Files.
Specifically, I can successfully request a list of File Shares, so I have the general call structure worked out.
However, I'm stumped about the exact incantation necessary to create a new directory at the root level of a share.
I've tried the following three variants, but all result in Forbidden - Server failed to authenticate the request
request.Host: myaccount.file.core.windows.net
request.AbsolutePath: /myshare/subdirname1
request.Query: ?restype=directory
string to sign: PUT\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nx-ms-date:Sun, 30 Nov 2014 16:07:25 GMT\nx-ms-version:2014-02-14\n/myaccount/myshare/subdirname1\nrestype:directory

I did note that trying to get the contents of an (empty) root directory doesn't behave quite the way I'd expect
request.Host: myaccount.file.core.windows.net
request.AbsolutePath: /myshare/
request.Query: ?resttype=directory&comp=list
string to sign: GET\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nx-ms-date:Sun, 30 Nov 2014 16:23:17 GMT\nx-ms-version:2014-02-14\n/myaccount/myshare/\ncomp:list\nrestype:directory
Authenticates OK, but generates FAILURE BadRequest - The requested URI does not represent any resource on the server.
Which is different behaviour from pulling the list of blobs from an empty container (returns 200 with an empty xml list of blobs.
I've been through the File Service REST API document (dn167006) and found the azurestoragesamples on codeplex, but the former is unclear on working with the root level and the latter is from 2011 and predates File Storage.
Any insights?

First, thank you for the quick response and the suggestion about looking at the response content for the string to sign being used. I wasn't aware of that and obviously it's a fantastic resource for figuring this kind of stuff out.
And what it immediately revealed is it wasn't some subtle oddity in my construction of the STS, it was that I was doing a client.GetAsync(...) and not a client.PutAsync(...). DOH!
With that sorted, it was trivial to fix.
In terms of the List Directories and Files, though, there's still a problem.
FAILURE BadRequest - The requested URI does not represent any resource on the server.

The response XML is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

   <UriPath>/myshare</UriPath>
</Error>
I originally thought it might be because the share was empty. However, I'm targeting the same share in which I created (apparently successfully) the subdirectory.
So I'm still confuzzled on that.

Viewing only files at the root level in a folder?

When I click on a folder, I see all images in the folder including all the images in the subfolders. If I still have a few loose images in the root level of the folder (outside the subfolders), how do I view only the loose images?

Funny, John. LR's pretty intuitive, but it continues in the Photoshop tradition of a thousand things up its sleeves, if only you know where to look. I guess I was feeling helpful last night. I'll work on suppressing that :)

This is quite concerning because it leads me to think something else is wrong. I read somewhere else that .Net Framework 4.5.1 is required for RM, but the system requirements on MSDN don't mention that. Any help greatly appreciated.

How to pull the root level XML tags in the XML source-SSIS?

Hi All,
Can anyone please help out with the following requirement?
There is a XML file data which I need to pull it to database. Please see the attached XML file.
Question: When I am trying to pull the root level data (i.e. CreationDateTime and FileNumber) from XML source in the dataflow, the respective tag is not seen in the input. Can anyone help me how can I get those values in my input to pull the data to Database?
Thanks & Regards,
Sri

Hi Sri,
In SQL Server Integrated Services, we can generate XML Schema (XSD) file based on a XML file with XML Source Editor. For more details, please refer to the following steps:
Double-click the XML Source in the Data Flow Task.
Browse the XML file for the XML location.
Click the Generate XSD button to generate an XSD file.
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong

Moving folders to the root of the mailbox

Is there a way to move a folder from being a subfolder back to the root of the mailbox. I have accidentally moved one of my root folders into another root folder making it a subfolder. I can change it on the exchange server through the web interface, but this takes them out of Alphabetical order.

In Mail? Yes. Just click and hold the folder, and drag it up to between two top-level folders you get a "lollipop" place indicator that has the circle just left of those top-level folder icons.
Then you can move it down the list again to the right position. You might need to collapse the folder trees temporarily to place it exactly where you wish.
