Hide .LCK files

For some reason Dreamweaver CS5 is not hiding the _notes folders or .LCK files. I have freshly reinstalled and updated, but this problem persists. All documentation says these files should not be visible, but here they are.
Please let me know how to hide these files, the way they should be, the way they were in CS4. You can even check out the .LCK files currently.

In the expanded File panel, VIEW | Show Hidden Files.
By the way, leaving this enabled is the only way you can see files such as ".htaccess" in your file list....

Hiding LCK files

Is there a way to hide the LCK files in Dreamweaver that the
Check In/Check Out system creates? It sure makes it hard to upload
a bunch of files at once.

CI/CO would be useful in this situation. Both of you need to
be using it.
I suppose the easy way to cope with the LCK files would be to
sort the files
list by file type. Could that do it for you?

Search Remote Files... or ...How Do I Delete All of My LCK Files?

hey everyone.
i need to delete a bunch of .LCK files from my server so
Dreamweaver
will stop telling me someone else has stuff checked-out and
that i need
to enable blah blah blah. i can't just check everything in
because A.
that would take forever and B. the "person" who has them
checked out is
actually me, from a previous site definition that is now gone
because i
had to recreate it.
unless i'm missing something (and i've been spending some
time looking
for it), there doesn't seem to be a way in Dreamweaver (at
least in
version 8, which is what i have) to search for files on the
remote view.
and even if there was, it doesn't look like the remote view
displays
hidden files, i.e. .LCK files.
my server control panel does give me the option to search for
files
using the file manager, but it only searches the folder you
have
selected, and no sub-folders. there are hundreds, maybe
thousands of
folders on this thing, and it would really take a long time
to click on
each and every folder, search for the .lck files, and then
delete them.
so, my question is, what would be the best/easiest way to
find and
delete .lck files (or really, any file for that matter) on
the remote
server?
thanks!

i do NOT want check-in/check-out enabled. i'm trying to get
rid of it
altogether, but i tried selecting the checked out files to
check them
back in, and it said there were none.
there is no "unlock" option, so i guess i need to pick check
in. but
here's my question, since it's this other instance of "me"
that has them
checked out, will this work? it's not recognizing me or my
computer or
whatever as the person who has them checked out. i think it's
because i
had to recreate my site definition about a week ago or so,
and i deleted
the old one. so it's like a user that no longer exists has
them checked out.

How can I hide hidden files again?

Hi I just bought a new macbook pro with maverick 10.9.3 I believe and made my hidden files viewable to extract certain data. But now I want to hide the files again how do I go about doing that?
thanks!

You could try it in Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
Then:
killall Finder

How to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

how to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

Within Aperture you have Images, which are constructed on-the-fly from two files (the Master and the Version). You get an image-format file _only_ when you export an Image. You select the file name (usually a scheme) when you create an image-format file (that is, when you export). Look under "Aperture→Presets→File Naming" for built-in Presets. You can, of course, create your own or customize any provided.
The Preset is applied to only the file newly created by your "export" command. It is not applied to the Image in Aperture (unless you rename your Versions or your Masters).

My Java File gets a .LCK file attached - do not want it there

I have a couple of Java files. When I go to compile them the IDE will not enable the compile option from the drop down list. I found there is a .LCK file in the same directory with the same name as my File..
IE if my file name was Basketballs.java there is a .LCKBasketball.java
When I erase the file from the directory it allows me to compile it but once I compile the file it creates a new .LCK file and the whole problem starts all over again.
What must I do to stop this .LCK file from being produced so my file does not get locked from use.
Or is this a silly virus that somebody put on my computer?

This is a question the should have been asket at the unidentified IDE's website. It does not involve Java.

Hide eml file attachments in Convergence

How to Hide "Hidden Files"??

This is a question that has stumped AppleCare when I called them last week, and the "Geniuses" at my local AppleStore yesterday....So, throwing it out here. On upgrading my new 17" MBP last week to Snow Leopard I discovered the Finder was showing a lot of System files that normally are "hidden". IE: bin, cores, etc, mack kernal, tmp, usr, var. The regular way of dealing with these files is to make them "hidden" with a Terminal command, but that didn't work. I reinstalled Snow Leopard twice, that didn't work, the Genuis applied a Widget to hide the files, that didn't work either. Somehow the Snow Leopard installation has labelled these files as visible and will not allow Terminal to re-label them so that they go back to their proper "hidden" state.
I cannot with Snow Leopard find a way to "Archive and Reinstall" so that I could sort of shove aside the troubled system and put another clean one in place like we could with Leopard and previous OSX installations. So does anyone have any ideas what may have happened here and how I can address it without the painful solution of wiping the HD and reinstalling and re-registering everything like Photoshop, FCP, Lightroom, Aperture and a host of other software? Something I am trying to avoid. Thanks............

How to hide raw files

Hi All,
I have a Nikon D70s and shoot in both raw and jpg. When I upload to iPhoto 08, it uploads both .nef and .jpg files, which is fine, and then displays both photos. I want to be able to hide the .nef files until I need them. Is there a global setting that will automatically hide .nef files?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is no universal setting to hide any kind of file. But you could create a smart album based on the criteria Photo is RAW. It will display all of the raw photos in the library and make it easy to hide them en mass.
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.

Hide Sidecar files appearing after upgrade?

How do you hide Sidecar files NOW appearing in NEF photo folder on desktop after Yosemite upgrade? In Adobe Bridge, you have option to hide sidecar files. Can't find a way to hide them from view in OS Finder folders.

Oh, good idea!
Changing it in explorer is forcing a rewrite of the tags, enough so that itunes can now recognize them.
Did you ever have a window 7 beta (build 7000) looking at those files? That version had some problems that affected MP3s.
It sounds similar to a wide-spread issue where itunes will not read tags that other programs will read.
Your situation has a different twist, in that they were all originally ripped with itunes.
Anyhoo....they have somehow gotten corrupted, either from itunes or something else. I don't know what you have on your PC and what is common among those 700 songs that got hit.
I can't think of anything at the moment that will rewrite all the tags quickly, except for MP3 validator - but I wouldn't want to use that on my library, because it takes the tags back to v1 and loses artwork.

Is there a way to hide ALL file extensions?

Hi
I am looking for a way to get OS X to hide ALL file extensions on the entire computer. I don't know why, but they really annoy me! I liked OS 9 and earlier because they didn't have them, and including them in OS X seems like a step backward to me. Wherever I can I simply don't save with file extensions (MS Office still retains this ability), and most applications will still open their files if you delete the file extension, but I do have a number of applications that require a file extension (such as OmniGraffle Pro), and it is very laborious to have to go through every file in order to hide the file extension. Is there some kind of master setting that you can apply to a volume in order to hide every file extension in it?

Hi All,
I have found this tutorial that partially solves the problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NhRFxJCAQw
It is a quick way to hide the extensions of all files that have them in a given folder and the folders inside it, using automator. It does not hide the extensions of any file you add to the folder subsequently, and you can not apply it to a volume or a home folder. It is more of a labour-saving tool than an actual solution, but it is vastly better than having to get info for every single file.
As the author of the tutorial notes in his video, this is an option that apple could fix by just adding one more check-box to the finder preferences window. Or better still they could have just left things the way they were before and not introduced them in the first place... does anyone even know what they are for anyway? (Apart from to annoy you with a random bit of text at the end of a filename that you didn't place there.)

LCK files being created with PAK files when processed through ODDC

I'm encountering a problem where after commit of a batch in ODDC the files are transferred to the server, but the PAK files are accompanied by a LCK file that is preventing the Distributed Document Capture service from picking them up and processing them. This started occurring after ODDC Patch 4 (14538424) was applied. I'd blame the patch, but not all users encounter the problem. Users encountering the problem are using Win7 and IE9. That said, users that don't encounter the problem are using the same OS and browser. Has anyone encountered this before? What was the resolution? I suspect it's a browser setting, but haven't identified it yet.
Thanks

I stumbled on a link in the oracle forum which says that the "create or replace package XXX" at the start of the PL/SQL procedure when run seems to intermittently cause the ORA-04068: existing state of packages has been discarded problem.
As per the solution suggested an “alter package XXX compile" can be executed after the changes are made and then we would no longer get the error in BPEL/ESB and dont have to bounce the server too.
__http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=185762_
However the above solution does not seem to resolve the issue.
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Over-riding .LCK files on Inherited Website

Is there any way of over-riding .LCK files?
I’ve recently been given access to administer a
department webpage at a university and defined a site on my
computer - but when I accessed the server's directory I found the
.htm files have the .LCK extension. I was able to download the
files but am prevented from uploading any files. The original
webperson has left and no one has any information.
I was checking the archives and see that the .LCK is related
to Dreamweaver's "check-in/check-out" feature which allows tracking
of files when working in groups. But since I'm now become "the
group", how do I over-ride this feature so I can work on the .htm
files?
~CK

Just delete the lck files on the server as I mentioned
before.

.lck files not automatically deleting

We save all of our .fm book and chapter files to a central server, and recently we've noticed that when we close a file the .lck file does not automatically delete. Thus, we are having to manually delete this before updating books, opening files, etc. We're using FM8 on PC's with Win 7 x64. We have FM set to run in XP x32 compatability mode, which is working pretty well for us aside from the aformentioned issue.
Has anybody else run into this? Any ideas on a fix?
Thanks! Scott

Do the lock files actually still exist?
If you're discovering them because FM is complaining on open, then yes they effectively still exist (although possibly only in server FS cache).
But if you're merely seeing them in a file browser, they may or may not be there. Doing a refresh may or may not clear up matters,
Browser currency is a fundamental, and probably intractable, problem in computer science. Many OS'es don't even attempt to keep track of multiple local and remote browsers that presently have a dir open, much less asynchronously force-refresh them when the dir contents change. Windows tries to, with an assortment of performance, nuisance and failure modes.
I blame Bill Gates.
Reboot the server .

HUNDREDS of .LCK files

Hundreds of .LCK files are appearing on our server - most of
them with Hidden file attribute set. The CPS log shows all these
entries, typically by a single user, at a very specific date and
time - seems to be when the user is trying to publish a file.
Anyone know what is causing this? I can search/delete them in the
file system, but I want to know the cause.
Also, other symptoms we are experiencing are "Access Denied"
and "Contact System Admin" when other users try to publish. Also, a
".new" is appended to the filename when this error occurs. Only way
to fix this is to rename the file in the file system.
I have a mixture of Contribute 3.11, Contribute 4.0 and
Dreamweaver 8 users. I have CPS version 1.1.
Any suggestions/help is greatly appreciated!!!!

I'm not sure I have an answer for you on this, but I assume
you know that the LCK files are how Contribute locks the actual
files on the server to prevent 2 folks from editing the same page
simultaneously. That being said, the LCK system kicks into gear
when, at least for us, the administrator (who is in DW MX) has
enabled the "Check In-Check Out" functionality for the site. The
administrator gets messages in Contribute when a page is "locked"
by a page author (meaning they are currently editing the page, have
clicked "Save For Later", have clicked "Send for Review" or have
exited Contribute without "disposing" of their draft in one of the
above methods). Make sure folks are either publishing their drafts
or "disposing" of them in one of these ways so that the locking is
not occuring accidentally.
Aside from that, the LCK's are normal and go away when a page
is published. It's possible that you may have enabled the approval
system "Send for Review" and this is starting to tie things up (you
should probably have a lot of concurrent emails being sent as well
in this case).
As to the other errors you're getting, sometimes we get those
too, and yet we are able to just close the error box and things go
as intended. Other times not, and I think the whole thing is
related to how much traffic the CPS server is handling...we tend to
get more errors when things are really busy.
Again, not sure if this was helpful, but maybe just some
things to consider!
