How do I 'see' Go Pro files in the 'Finder'.

When connecting my Hero 2 to the Mac, iPhoto found the clips and they're viewable in iphoto no problem. In order to convert the files to be edited in FC Express, I've used MPEG Streamclip. I've converted about 8 files so I now have the original clip and the Streamclip file. As I started to convert the 9th clip it came up saying there was insufficient room so it aborted.
I worked out that I must have 2 versions on the computer so for the files I hav ealready converted, I thought I would just delete the originals imported into iPhoto. When I used Finder - i can't 'see' these originals anywhere?

thanks Al - these forums are great
I've also been reading about the back up process using TM - I now realise the TM drive is full as it's trying to back up onto a 500GB disk every day and the GOPro files total 370gb. I think I'm going to buy a second back up drive and save the originals before I delete anything from thois hidden location

  • How do I remove an old file from the Finder Favorites list?

    Good Afternoon.
    I have a shiney new MBPro with 10.7.1.
    On my old machine running Snow Leopard, I had two .xls files I used often that I had dragged to the left side into the favorites. The truth is, I hadn't used them in months, but hadn't bothered to remove them. Then about ten days ago, the Bad Thing happened, and I had to replace my laptop rather suddenly. The nice folks at the Apple store transferred all the data and I was off an running in just a few hours.
    Now, I thought to myself, I should remove those two files since I don't use them any more. But how?
    If I click on them nothing happens. If I right-click on them, nothing happens. I can't drag them out because they don't drag and they aren't listed on the list of favorites that can be toggled on and off in preferences.
    I checked. The files did still exist but deleting them didn't remove their names from the favorites list.
    Any suggestions as to how to remove these two .xls files from the Finder's Favorites list?
    Thanks. A picture is below.

    The msot amazing person ,just posted an answer to my other question which worked here too.
    Three cheers for Kappy!
    Just hold down the CMD key and drag them off. How simple is that?? They didn't klnow this at the Genius bar when I asked this morning. I am amazed.
    I wish I knew how to send Kappy cookies.
    Thank you Kappy.

  • Why is do I see duplicates of files in the finder

    HI everyone,
    Whenever I put pictures into iPhoto I get lots of duplicates shown in the finder.  See the picture below.
    This only  happens with pictures, and only the ones that are in iPhoto.  The pictures ARE NOT DUPLICATED in iPhoto, but they show duplicates in the finder.
    The finder window that the duplicates show in is Finder >>> All My Files
    I have tried everything I can think of.  I have turned photo stream on and off and reset it a 100 times, I have deleted my entire photo library and created a whole new one, but still when I got to Finder >>> All My Files I see duplicated photos
    What can I do, I don't know how to fix this
    Can someone help me please

    Thanks
    This made me feel better about the duplicates shown in my finder, as the only show in the "All My Files" window. I guess that it is just the copies iPhoto makes to allow users to preview and so on, as I can't find the duplicates anywhere else.
    Cheers

  • How can i access my icloud files from the finder?

    I have tried dragging the icloud icon from the toolbar of safari to the toolbar of a finder window without success.  There are files from apps I would like to save on my cloud that do not natively support iCloud. 
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    -Fricaseed

    The Safari iCloud icon is for iCloud tabs which syncs all of your tabs in Safari between all of your iOS devices and Macs. So basically while you were dragging the iCloud icon into Finder, you were doing nothing. Also iCloud only saves information and files from certain applications such as Reminders, Notes, Messages, Safari, TextEdit, etc. If there are apps that do not natively support iCloud you cannot save their files to iCloud because Apple does not have a feature that can save any file from any app on your Mac. Sorry to tell you this.
    Hope this helps,

  • How can I see that a file has been sent for workflow?

    How can I see that a file has been sent for workflow?
    During the workflow phase, the file is locked for workflow. But when the file has been approved (or denied) it will have the same status as it did before the workflow process (unless you trigger the workflow by changing its location).
    You can see the workflow history in the "My Request" view, but this way of determining whether a file has been approved seems complicated.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the transaction code, but my question is not answered yet.
    For example, I use STMS_IMPORT in the Development environement to see the list of the transport that has been made in that environement.
    I now have a list of these transports, with a status. But I wanna know if that transport that has been created in the Development environement has been moved to the Sandbox environement.
    STMS_IMPORT shows me only the list of transports that has been created in that environement. It doesn't tell me if a transport in DVL has been moved in the QAS, SANDBOX or PRODUCTION environment.
    Thanks again,
    Julien

  • How do i drag media to the menu screens in premiere elements 13? I can't see my audio files and the menu screens at the same time. In prior versions it was easy

    How do i drag media to the menu screens in premiere elements 13? I can't see my audio files and the menu screens at the same time. In prior versions it was easy?
    It is very cumbersome to "re browse" for audio files/pics/movie clips to add to menu screens. Certainly there is a way to view the media and menu screen at the same time so I can drag and drop?

    Jayhawk
    I think I know exactly what you are seeking and believe it cannot be done in Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 as it can be done in versions earlier than 11 where the Disc Layout and Project Media are viewed side by side.
    Premiere Elements 13 uses a Movie Menu customization workspace which is not allowing viewing of Project Assets in the Expert workspace at the same time.

  • I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    On your iMac launch iTunes and at the top next to the Apple symbol click iTunes > Preferences > Devices and tell me what you see. You last sync should be there showing only a device name. If you have an older backup it will be there as well the difference is it will be the device name with a date and time stamp. Sync and backups are two different things and there is a chance iTunes made a backup the first time you hooked up your iPhone 5. 

  • How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

    How to upload words, exel, PDF file from the pc via itune to the iPad, and where will the uploaded file be saved? In the apps?

    You will need an app (or apps) on your iPad that is capable of reading the documents, as they will be saved with the app - if you don't have such an app then there is nothing to transfer them to or to read/access them.
    One method of transferring them is toconnect your iPad to your computer's iTunes, select it's app tab, and then scroll to the bottom of it - you should the apps That you've got that are capable of file-sharing (if you've got any).  Selecting/high-lighting one of them should then allow you to add files to it via the box to the right of it.
    An alternative way to get the documents onto your iPad is if the app that you want to transfer them to has a wifi setting, which will then allow you to transfer the documents wirelessly. You can also send the documents to yourself as attachments and then use Mail's 'open in' facility to copy them into your chosen app.
    Edit : more info on file sharing from the manual :
    File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
    Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
    On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
    Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, click Add.
    Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
    The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
    Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.

  • How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?

    How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?  These files were created on my MBA and when I changed the media type to iTunesU and then copied it to my iPad via iTunes, they did not appear.  I can see them using 3rd party software, but they don't have delete functionality.
    Thanks
    York

    Interesting note:  I can see the files when I use the search function, but when I tap either file, I return to my home screen.  The video does not open.  I can transfer the file to my MBA, and it plays fine, but I cannot figure out a way to delete them.

  • How can I remove a downloaded file from the desktop?

    Hi,
    I downloaded an install Internet Call Director exe file from my internet privider then was told that their system couldn't run on Mac OS 10. There are two files on my desktop that I can't remove. When I drag either one to the trash i get this message. "the item installICD.EXE is being used by another task right now.(Other tasks include moving, copying, or emptying the trash.)" There is nothing else running. I have tried renaming the file,Clearing the download manager, and anything else I could think of. The files will not open and will not delete even using CMD delete. I am not a computer person! How can I get rid of the files??
    iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.2.x)  

    If you haven't already done so, change the filenames so that they have an extension of .rtf, and then open TextEdit. Overwrite both files with blank TextEdit documents and then throw away the TextEdit documents.
    If the TextEdit method doesn't work, open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder and enter the following:
    tell application "Finder"
    set file type of (selection as alias) to "1234"
    end tell
    Select the file in the Finder and run the script. Repeat this for the second file; when done, try throwing them away again.
