Help to recover audio from GB file
My macbook battery (getting old) ran out of power at 20% and I was recording important audio. I had no opportunity to save beforehand.
When I powered up again on mains, the file was there and its size is 283Mb which is consistent with duration and content of recording. But when I open the file up in Garageband first I get a message saying "error in reading/writing to file com.apple.garageband.cs", then the GB window appears and the file is only 4 seconds of silence.
Is there any way I can rescue this audio in some form? If the file size is 283mb, I'm hoping the audio is on my computer somewhere. Any help or would be greatly appreciated.
control-click the project and choose "show contents". then open the Media folder. if the audio file exists, it's in there. note that a crash/power down during a write can be a very bad thing, the file could be damaged, but perhaps with a little luck it will be salvageable.

If all you want is to create a backup of some file you can do:public class Foo
public static void main(String[] args) {
Foo f = new Foo();
f.createBackup("something.xls");
public void createBackup(String inFile) {
FileInputStream in = null;
FileOutputStream out = null;
try {
in = new FileInputStream(inFile);
out = new FileOutputStream(inFile + ".bak");
int read;
while ((read = in.read()) > -1) {
out.write(read);
out.flush();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (in != null) {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
if (out != null) {
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();

I want to capture just the audio from avi file. Here is what I did. I dragged the avi into garage band and saw a separate audio and video track. I tried to import the just the audio into itunes but it would only let me import both video and audio. I decided to burn the audio to cd and then import it into itunes. This seemed to work but I would like to know if there is a better method. I figure there must be. Anybody out there tried this?
i'm not near my GB machine to test this, but see if you can Share to Disk and make sure the Compress checkBox is not selected.

Recovering data from Temp file following transfer failure
Hey everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about recovering Lightroom data from temp files.
Last month I made a serious, serious error while transferring my files in Lightroom. I was off-loading a month's worth of material off of one hard drive onto another (in a rush to catch a flight), and used Lightroom's "Move" tool to do so. Problem was, they were both portable harddrives and one of them periodically lost power during the transfer. The result was devastating: the vast majority of the images and previews were lost to the black abyss. I did not have a backup of the RAWs or videos. It was... very bad.
However, I noticed that I could still preview the images in Lightroom. Somewhere, some of the previews still existed in a temp folder or in RAM.
I found two files called Photoshop Temp in my Windows Temp folder and backed them up to my drive. Together they're over 6 gigabytes and do not respond to opening in Photoshop, nor Lightroom.
Is there any way to recover some of the data from these caches?
Thanks so much!Hi,
Is your cube contains 0customer field?? If there is no use of it then remove from the cube so that it gets eliminated from update rules too. If the data type of that object is Char, then remove the alpha routine property in the infoobject level.
Check the file type in the infopackage also,whether it is checked as CSV or not.
Hope it helps,

How can i cut the audio from 1 file and put it on another?
I have these2 files of the same movie, 1 is amazing quality but theres no audio. the other is crummy quality but has perfect audio. How can I cut the audio from the good audio version and paste it onto the good video file?
btw i have quicktime pro is that changes anythingOpen the movie and press "Command J". This will bring up the properties window. Click on the Audio Track or Video Track and the "Extract/Delete" buttons will light up. Click "Delete" and it'll delete the currently selected track, click "Extract" and it will extract the selected track into a new movie. Just use Delete on the correct track and you're halfway there.
Then, select the movie that is just an Audio Track now, do "Command A" then "Command C" to copy the audio track. Go to the movie that's just a video track, move the insertion point to the beginning of the video then do "Option Command V" to add the Audio Track to the Video Track side by side. -
Extracting audio from video file to edit...
i know in imovie it's easy you just select the video then go up top and select the extract audio tab...
but how can you extract the audio from a video file in final cut so are able to edit the audio and video files separately from one another WITHIN final cut??no output volume? ... you need to check your setting under the View menu > Audio Playback ... where are you sending the audio? maybe you're routing it to follow the video out through firewire to your DV device, in which case you need to turn up the speakers on your DV monitoring equipment
...or is this a muxed MPEG file? if so you need to demux it before bringing it into FCP, or better still, convert it to a more appropriate edit codec (you can use the excellent and free MPEG Streamclip application to do this) -
Record audio from .exe file
Hi we had created an entire project of 2.5 hours of around 140 slides using Adobe Captivate 6. We had put the slide notes as text and published an .exe file and shared the same with the client.
However, now we have lost the source captivate .cptx file and have to redo the project from scratch. We have the powerpoint presentation for each slide so putting the objects as per the .exe is not an issue.
We figured the easiest way to have the audio is to record directly from the .exe and then put the audio files in captivate, rather than putting slide notes and repeating the entire process.
Is there a way to directly record audio from the .exe file? This will reduce our effort with respect to the pronunciation of words.Double-click your .exe file and let it run, do not close. If you're on Windows 7 go to
C:\Users\your user name\AppData\Local\Temp\
and look for a folder like CPE7770.tmp. You can use the date and time stamp to locate this folder.
Your swf file will be there.
If on another Windows OS, the path should be similar.
You can also use software like Audacity or Audition to record audio from your computer. Set up will depend on your system config.

No audio from avi file-PE4 & Vista 64
I looked at the post for this topic from Adobe. Did all the steps regarding the audio driver for not hearing audio from ALL clips. I can hear any sound from the headphones jack for ANY audio device. And the AVI file plays back with sound in WMPlayer and in Windows Movie Maker. When I go to Preferences, Audio hardware, default device - the ONLY device listed is the Premier Elements Windows Sound. Beneath it is the ASIO settings. That contains the proper setting for the Realtech sound card. I am not able to select the ASIO device as the new default device. I followed the Adobe post closely but I still get no sound output from PE4. What next?
I do show the ASIO button in the Audio Hardware window.
The only reason that mine does not show on the screen-cap is because it fades out in the GUI, when it's open.
Did we determine that when this file is played, in say WMP, you do get Audio? Unfortunately, with the new forum software, I can't see anything, except the post to which I am replying. [Edit] Yes we did.
Did you have any luck with ASIO4ALL?

Audio from media files becomes corrupted, but video from same files remains fine.
I've been recording footage on a Sony nxcam in AVCHD 1080p 30fps for use in a premiere pro project. After importing the files into premiere they all work perfectly fine, no video or audio issues. I edited an entire narration using only the audio from the media files, and then left my computer for about an hour to get lunch. Upon return, the audio in the files skips huge chunks, and ends about a minute before the video ends, but the video seems unaffected. Deleting and reimporting the files doesn't solve the issue, somehow only the audio in media clips seems to have been severly messed up. This happened again earlier this morning, a media file was working fine, and then suddenly only the audio has huge chunks missing out of it, and the remaining chunks are all bunched together with no gaps so that the audio ends minutes before the video does. Any ideas?
Close Premiere and go to your Media Cache Directory for Premiere. Select ALL and Delete those files. Open Premiere and that project and let it conform again. See if the audio is fine.

Help me capture stills from mov files of kodak camera created in pal format
I did not know the difference and saved movie files on my kodak digital camera as pal format - it was top of list - i need to capture some stills as single photos from those files. I have switched to NTSC format for future and will want to capture stills from movies in that format also
does anyone know if quicktime pro 7 will di what i want or what i need to reach my goal?Even the free version of QT Player allows you to "copy" frames. These could be "pasted" into a new blank using any image editing software.
What ever frame is showing when you stop playback will be the one copied. More control by using the right left arrow keys.
The Pro upgrade can export a frame to many image formats. It doesn't matter that the format is PAL. NTSC and PAL are TV playback settings. Your computer doesn't care. -
I have Quicktime PRO and need to edit some avi files. Upon opening up some DIVX files, I have lost the audio. Their is a prompt saying I need some plug ins and dropped me on the quicktime plugin page. I read through all the plug ins but I am not sure what the problem is.
Does anyone know how I can bring back the audio in these files? Many thanks.

Please help me recover a lost PDF file from Adobe Reader XI
Hi,
I was filling out a VA form 5655 in Adobe, and twice today, I lost my file and I just cannot type all of this stuff again, because I had to do so much math and typing and more math. All of a sudden "bloop", it was gone. When I try to go into file, then revert, revert is not highlighted. I tried pulling up history and it said there was no history. I just don't know what else to do, and I need this for the morning. Please help? ThanksHi Pat,
I filled it out directly from the blank PDF online, and never got a chance
to save the whole document. I did however save it about 1/2 way through,
but yet cannot find that 1/2 of the document either. Thanks.

Hello Sir/Madam,
Previously I was using Microsoft Wndows XP Professional,with version: 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600.
I took .bkf files by using the Backup utility (i.e. Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools and then click Backup)
And paste it to my external hard disk.
Then I used OS :Microsoft Windows 7 Professional(Version 6.1.7600 Build 7600).I formated my system deleted all the partitions and created new partions and installed Windows 7.
Now I have the .bfk files in my external hard disk and I want to recover my data from that .bfk files made from xp-sp3 pc to windows 7.
Plz help me.....
I downloaded Windows NT Backup - Restore Utility and tried to install NtBackupRestore_x86.msi .But it will not installed in Windows 7 with a message that this requires Removable Storage Management. Since RSM is not included in Windows 7 how does
one access old Backups from Windows XP?
Will the NtBackupRestore program be updated to be compatible with Windows 7? plz help................................Yes, you need to first install Removable Storage Management software before installing NT-Backup.exe in Windows 7. To know more about restoring backup file, you can read this post: http://belanalavade.blog.com/2014/04/15/how-to-repair-damaged-bkf-file/
Berdooook
No. You do not need to install Removable Storage Management in Windows 7 to read NT backups!
You go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/974674 and download the package for Windows 7 that Microsoft has published specifically for this!

Encore adds random static (Popping and Crackling) to audio from AVI files
We spend the whole day today trying to debug this problem... any help would be greatly appreciated.
We have a large conversion project where we are capturing VHS videos and converting them to DVD.
For those that require chapters, we are using Encore CS4.
All of the videos were captured the same way, in an AVI format.
We have found that when we load them into an Encore CS4 timeline, we will hear random static sounds -- pops in the audio.
We believe the AVI file is clean. We can watch the video in Windows Media Player, and the audio is fine. We can burn the AVI file to a DVD video using another low-end package (Power Director) and the DVD is fine. The AVI files have been run on other systems, and the audio crackling sound does not present itself.
But when we try to use Encore, some of the files exhibit the crackling sound. (Note that not all of the files have this problem. But those that do exhibit the problems will exhibit them every time.)
We tried loading them into Premier -- same thing.
So, this problem seems to be limited to Adobe tools.
We are running Windows 7 on an Intel i7, ATI Radeon card... a really fast, strong, stable system.
At this point we're not sure what to try...
We have attempted to pre-encode them using Adobe Media Encoder. Same results, regardless of which audio settings we try.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
