Garageband File not Found!

Hi,
I am wondering if there is a way to open/hear files that show up as not found when garageband opens?

I don't know how that would be possible. I am only able to have one project open at a time.
I have, however, been using certain files as templates. So rather than start from scratch, I'll do a "save as" and then use the tracks I need while deleting the ones I don't.
Does that answer your question?

How to use GarageBand at school and avoid getting 'File Not Found'

Last year we used Audacity and this year we used GarageBand to create podcasts.
We had students keeping their GarageBand project files on their USB sticks so that they could also work at home but many of them lost their work because they would get the message 'File Not Found'. The only work around we could come up with was to assign each student a computer and force them to only work on that computer and save their work in the GarageBand folder.
Why is it not possible to use GarageBand projects across multiple computers by transferring with a USB? I even had them do drag and drop from the GarageBand folder to their USB instead of doing Save As but neither worked without errors.
Sadly, many of these 160 students now have a negative opinion of Apple products and Apple software. I still like GarageBand, but it doesn't seem like a very good option for educational uses unless there is some sort of workaround that will allow my students to work on their projects on multiple computers.

the only immediate thought is that you didn't format the USB drives for Mac OS. GB files require it, they won't work under other formats

"file not found" for most recordings on GB

Hello,
I've used GB to record podcasts over the past few months and each time something very troubling eventually happens: I open the file several weeks later and am told that the track onto which I recorded cannot be found.
I tend to save my GB files on an external harddrive but given that I am new to the software, I haven't paid a lot of attention to where the program might save the media.
The files that are missing are usually .aif files. I have done several searches in to try and find the missing files but with no luck. The GB files themselves are saved in the automatic My Garageband Files folder.
I don't understand why the "file not found" issue only arises after a few weeks or months of not touching Garage Band. Any idea of how I can find these tracks? Or are they lost forever?
Any help would be so appreciated.

I'm a little confused by your question. You say you are saving GB files on an external drive, yet the GB files themselves are in your My GB Files folder. In any case, here are some things you can try:
Moving forward, when you save to an external drive, select Save As and choose "Archive Project." That should keep all audio files with the project and may solve everything.
If there is a GB file on your internal drive, double click on that and see if everything is fine (in other words, this assumes the same file is on your internal drive complete, and on an external drive incomplete).
If there is a GB file on your internal drive, or anywhere for that matter, control click on it, select Show Package Contents, and look in the media folder. All your audio files should be in there (and therefore recoverable).
If you are still having problems, try recording, saving, and working with your projects on your internal drive (and backing them up to an external drive in the Finder).

Error code "File not found Result code = -43" PLEASE HELP!

I keep getting this error message: "File not found Result code = -43" when trying to load instruments from the media tab. Does anyone know why this is happening and know how to fix this problem? I'm in the middle of a project and need help! Thanks.

So, I've narrowed down the problem to happening with the following steps (could someone possibly try this and see if the same problem is happening?)
If I load an instrument track and its blank and select a GARAGEBAND loop from the media list, I get the error message.
If I load a new instrument track and select any other instrument from the media list (besides a Garageband instrument) everything loads fine, AND THEN if I select a Garageband instrument from the list, it loads fine with no error.
If I select "No plug-in" in the channel strip after this, and try to load a Garageband loop, I get the error message and all other instruments from the media lists fail to load until I select "no-plugin" again from the channel strip and select an instrument from the media list BESIDES a Garageband instrument and then go from there (and can then load a Garageband instrument).
Is anything like this happening to anyone else? Does anyone have any ideas why this would be happening?

"File Not Found" on copy/paste files!

I had one big "real instrument" file that I decided to split into several smaller files. To do this, I would copy a section, paste it into a new file I had created, saved the new file, and then delete the original.
Now, when I try to open them, only a few will actually play. The others say "Audio File 'Recording#04.aif' not found,'" the Recording# varying with the tracks. It gives me the option to either "skip" or "search," the latter leading to a message that says the same thing, only this time with an exclamation point at the end. I then click "continue," which brings me to the file with a purple track section the same length as the music that used to be there, only now saying "file not found" and without any music on it.
Is there any way to retrieve these files?? It happens with 7 of the 10 files I did this with.

I dont have the latest version of GB. I have whatever version is on a 2010 macbook pro.
That would be some version of GarageBand '11, but did you ever run Software update, to be sure to have the latest GarageBand '11 version compatible with your 2010 MacBook? You can check the version number of any Mac application from the "About" panel. In the main menu bar click the name of the application in the upper left corner of the screen and select the menu entry "About ...". This will show the version number.
GB doesnt crash....the files just seem to go missing.
How much free disk space do you have? Running out of disk space could explain what you are seeing.
Do you have the latest driver for your audio interface installed?
Check the manufacturer's page: http://tascam.com/product/us-144mkii/downloads/
I can find crash logs....but the tracks are useless....i cant edit them or anything.
Do you mean you found the audio files in the "Media" folder, when you open the package? Then try to copy the audio files out of the package, and drag the copy back to the guitar track. Do they play?
Should i upgrade to the latest operating system and the latest version of gb??? Any help would be very much appreciated. 2010 macbook pro.
Upgrading to a different system and the newest GarageBand 10 will not help, if we do not know, what is causing the problems on your Mac. Run software update to make sure,you are running the latest update of your current GarageBand version.

Garageband - audiofiles not found

Hello everyone,
I relaunch an issue because I have not found an answer in former discussions.
Garageband displays an error message when I open a project - several aif audio files were not found.
I ask show the package contents of my project (User> Music> Garageband) and coincidentally, my files not found where there, but they have a .lbm extension instead of the .aif and weigh only 1 KB.
I made a bad manipulation? Is there a solution?

The .lbm files are no audio files. You cannot restore the audio of your tracks from them. What happened, before this problem first occurred? Did you run any cleaning programs to remove duplicate files or similar? Or did garageBAnd crash, before it could save the project and write the recordings to the disk?
Do you have a backup of your project from before the audio files went missing? Then try to restore the project from your backup.

Logic X EXS24 - audio file not found

I know this question crops up often and is usually a Garageband/missing downloadable contents issue but that's not the case here.
I'm a long time Logic user (pre Apple) and can usually work my way around issue or find answers online, but I'm completely stuck with this one.
I've been running my current setup for about eight months now (new Mac Pro, latest versions of Logic Pro and OS) with no problem at all.
I have an extensive sound library stored on external drives (Pegasus2) via Firewire and everything has been zipping along, then yesterday for no know reason EXS24 suddenly gives me the "audio file not found" message when trying to create a new instrument.
All previously created EXS24 instruments load just fine as the audio files were copied onto the project drive, but Logic no longer sees the library on my external drive.
The external drive is working just fine (troubleshooting shows no errors or issues) and I can access it just fine, load sounds into other applications etc), I can also manually drag individual samples into my EXS24 instrument so that it "sees" them, but very impractical to do this with so many audio files, and obviously that's not how it's supposed to work.
I thought I had found a workaround yesterday by making an alias of the folder containing the sound library and copying the alias to User/Music/Audio Music Apps and that worked while I was working yesterday, but on loading Logic today the problem is back.
I've reindexed the drive in question with Spotlight..
As mentioned, this setup has worked for months (and for years on my previous hardware) but suddenly Logic can no longer see those files via EXS24.
Any suggestions as to why this suddenly happened, and more importantly, on a permanent fix?
B.

It doesn't really matter where you put the samples, as the EXS will search for them when you try to load an instrument that references them.
The reason why the "davidfelton" bit is in there, is that the location of the samples is stored inside EXS files. At load time, if the samples are not at that location, the EXS will search for them, and once found, will write the new location back to the EXS file so it doesn't have to search next time.
If the EXS cannot find your samples, then open the EXS preferences and make sure your default search locations will find the files (ie you don't have it set to look on one drive, when the samples are on a different one).
Or you can use the project managers "resolve" function to update the sample locations to all the EXS files in one go.
Any probs, post back...

JBO:33001 bc4j.xcfg file not found in class path

Hi,
I am yet another victim of the age-old error JBO:33001 bc4j.xcfg file not found in class path, When i have my BC4JApp.jar in Tomcat Web-inf/lib directory. All the other jar files and class files in my webserver-application web-inf classes and lib directory works.
But Tomcat server is not able to read this bc4j.xcfg file. I can see in my jar file that this bc4j.xcfg exists and in the specified package directory. still the problem persists. My BC4JApp.jar is perfectly working when i use JDeveloper. but not when i use tomcat4.0 and call a JSP using BC4JApp.jar from browser (My environment is Jdeveloper3.2, Tomcat4.0+IIS in middle tier and oracle 8i as DB, everything on windows2k)
I have gone through almost all the threads possible that relates to this error in this form. None of them have a answer except to say "put the file in classpath". and last reply is "will fix in jDeveloper 9i. So what happens to us who are working in Jdeveloper 3.2?
1. I have this file in my jar file.
2. I also tried creating a seperate directory manually, with the same name as my package under web-inf/classes, web-inf/lib , just under web-inf directory and atlast under approot directory also. I tried having my package directory containing bc4j.xcfg in these folders one at a time and also tried having this directory in all these folders at the same time.
Still no solution.
Itz frustrating that neither proper documentation nor a right url page nor i am aware of available addressing this. page links given in above threads only gives me the wonderful page of ie's "Page cannot be displayed".
Is there a answer to this error and my problem. If this doesn't work, then i have to all the way develop from scratch creating my jsp using JDBC calls and Stored packages etc.
I don't want to give up on this Jdeveloper at this final moment because if this bc4j.xcfg file is found, my application will work perfectly. on these final moments, if this doesn't work, i am frightened to imagine to develop my application in standard way. Atlast, if thatz the option left,we have to do that bcos our production date is close by.
Please can some one in this forum or Jdeveloper help me to solve this problem. I am desperate and very urgent.
Waiting for a reply from Jdev team very much...
( I just posted in the other thread which is pretty old, dated backto May 2001, which was relevant to this error. Just to make sure it is noticed, I am posting it seperately too)
Thanks

Hi All,
For those who are following this thread, I got a solution for this error with the help of Jdev Team.
This solution may work, if you have deployed your application in Tomcat4.0.1. This is the environment in which I work and tested.
As you may be aware, Tomcat ignores value in CLASSPATH variable.
To see any files that are existing or newly deployed, it has it own way of detecting it.
Addition information on Tomcat working, you can follow this link,
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/index.html
Coming to point, Tomcat has got five classloaders and each classloader invoked, looks in their related directories for files in following order.
1. /WEB-INF/classes of your web-application
2. /WEB-INF/lib/*.jar of your web application
3. BootStrap classes of your JVM (Tomcat's $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext)
4. System class loader classes($CATALINA_HOME/bin/bootstrap.jar,CATALINA_HOME/lib/tools.jar)
5. $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes
6. $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/*.jar
7. $CATALINA_HOME//classes
8. $CATALINA_HOME/lib/*.jar
So All your individual application related files should be deployed in your application's WEB-INF/classes or WEB-INF/lib directory accordingly.
If your application files are unpacked, they should be deployed or copied under WEB-INF/classes directory
if the files are within a jar, they should be under WEB-INF/lib directory.
If your Jar-files contains bc4j components, then those jar files should be deployed under WEB-INF/lib directory. Also,do the next step to copy all relavant BC4J runtime libraries under lib directory.
IMPORTANT: Please remember to copy and paste all the required BC4j runtime libraries in the Same WEB-INF/lib directory along with your application jar files. This is the real reason which can solve this JBO:33001 to disappear. It worked for me.
To configure your directory for tag-lib uri's, use web.xml to set the taglib-uri attribute.
Put your web.xml and DataTags.tld in the WEB-INF directory.
Your simple web.xml may look like as follows.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
     <taglib>
          <taglib-uri>
               /webapp/DataTags.tld
          </taglib-uri>
          <taglib-location>
               /WEB-INF/DataTags.tld
          </taglib-location>
     </taglib>
</web-app>
You may then modify this web.xml to suit further requirements of your application.
Remember to stop and restart the Tomcat Server (service) by using shutdown and startup scripts after updating any jar files/class files/ JSP or source files deployed in Tomcat.
Sometimes, only this helps even though your context's reloadable attribute is set to true in Tomcat Server's server.xml file.
Hope this above information helps you to solve this error in Tomcat environment. My Sincere thanks once again to Juan and Jdev team for their help and efforts to solve this problem.
Thanks
Hari

Error on WWI server EHS_GLM_GENSERV: Results file not found on production

Hi Experts,
I need some help/advice. We have issues with our new EH&S WWI server.
This new setup working OK with Dev and QA (the WWI and GLM part is just fine), We did try to link this server to production then it gives below error.
Only difference between existing WWI QA and production server is that
Existing QA and development WWI server installed at location C:\Program Files (x86)\EHS\WWI
And Same path maintain on new server C:\Program Files (x86)\EHS\WWI
But existing production WWI server installation path is different C:\Program Files\EHS\WWI
So is there any customizing changes required from SAP side to avoid this error on production
Can you please advise on this.

ITunes: "File not found"

I have been having a problem for quite some time with iTunes and I can't seem to get an answer as to how to resolve it. On many of my songs listed in the iTunes library, when I click on the song I get an error message to the effect of "File not found. Would you like iTunes to try to locate this file?", and when I say "yes" to this, I get my "iTunes Music" folder (where my music files are stored) and I have to search around and find the file (which I am usually able to do) and then it plays. However, when sometime later I may try to play the song again, I get the same error message and have to go through the same process. Can anyone explain why this may be happening and how I can prevent it from happening again? What is the simplest way to store your music files on your hard drive to ensure iTunes captures everything and does not have difficulty locating files? Many thanks for your help and advice!

This really shouldn't happen. There are no setting in iTunes to prevent it.
If you want to do a bit of detective work, you find out where iTunes this the missing file is located.
If you want to try this, identify a track or two with exclamation marks.
Open iTunes Library.xml with WORDPAD. (it's in the iTunes folder)
Use search to look for the track or album name. If you know the actual file name you can use that but watch out for spaces, the space character is represented by %20.
WHen you have found a track or album you need to scroll to the line starting:
<key>Location</key>
This contains the path and file name.
Is it correct, or something different?
That might give you clue about files being moved or renamed.
If it is all correct them something odd is happening with iTunes.

Why am I getting File not Found alert when I type into my browser?

Why do I keep getting a File not Found alert when I type into my browser?
I have been using firefox for about 4 yrs now with very few problems. The problem I am having is that when ever I go to type in anything into my browser I keep receiving this message:
(Scroll down to see the rest)
File not found
Firefox can't find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/chrome/en-US/locale/browser-region/region.propertieschronic+fatigue+syndrome.
I recently installed Firefox 5.0 and this keeps happening. It happened with the 4.0 version a couple of days ago but mostly it is the 5.0 version that I am having problems with. When ever I want to do a search I have to manually type in google.com. Is there a solution to fix this?

The NuGet is a dll that was built with 4.0.0.0. The easiest thing to fix problem is target you VS project to use Net 4.0. You could get a new version of NuGet, but if you do make sure you rebuild your entire project. The dependencies in
the VS compiler doesn't always recognize updated libraries. So I normally rename the bin folder in the project and then delete the bin folder. VS will create a new bin folder and then rebuild all the source files. If your project contains
multiple projects then remember to delete the bin from all projects.

Cannot delete file error -43 file not found

I cannot find and/or delete a file. The error is -43 file not found. It prevents me form making a backup with carbon copy.
The file was in applications / illustrator / legal / strangecharacters.html (now in trash) and size 112kb.
I am the admin of the machine on OSX 10.4.8
I have read & write permissions
Owner og the file is system.
I cannot change the filename: Unexpected error code -43!
I cannot change owner: Unexpected error code 213!
I cannot drag the file out of the containing folder i.e. legal (i get grayed stop icon instead of the expected green plug icon at the mouse pointer).
I can drag the legal folder around i.e. to the trash.
I can not delete the folder and its contents with empty or secure emtpy trash.
I tried:

I logged out and back as admin and different user.
I restarted.
I tried to delete the file via Terminal with rm and with command below as suggested by apple technote. The result is not as desired:

I started up from a different volume and tried the above.
Anyone?

as in my previous post, i found that part of my hard drive directory was corrupt. .ie. short version: there was a discrepancy between what the directory knew to be on the disk and what the finder showed me...
so i did a startup in single mode (command-s) and type fsck -fy at the prompt to do a disk repair. took aout three runs and 20 minutes but after that i got the desired message: disk appears to be ok. i typed reboot which restarted the machine. i then ran disk utillity repair privileges.
everything now is fine.
note: working with bluetooth keyboard and mouse in single mode worked on my G5 (not sure though if this applies to all models), also fans make a lot of noise, like your machine is about to take off... dont worry)
hope this helps

Removing warning for "Default CSS file not found."

I am getting this warning in Flash Builder:
"Default CSS file not found."
I can not for the life of me figure out how to get rid of it. Any suggestions?

Default css file can be specified as a compiler option (per SWC, I think).
See http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=compilers_14.html
For example, flex framework has a default CSS file: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\3.5.0\frameworks\projects\framework\default.css
Do you have some library project or a swc with default css file option turned on, but the css file is missing?
