How to find corrupted file causing problem with FCP?

I couldn't use Log and Transfer of FCP 7.0.3 for AVCHD from Canon Vixia.
By starting from different user account Log and Transfer worked which means I have a corrupted file in the directory of original user account causing the error of Log and Transfer. What will be the easiest way to find the corrupted file?

If the new user acct test allows you to work with the software, it usually means a dead pref file. The easiest way to deal with these issues is to run Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager software (free) to delete the preference files in FCP.
Open it up and look under the FCP settings in the Advanced tab. It gives you the option of selectively deleteing the various pref files associated with the app.
First back up all your FCP prefs then start deleting them one by one. Once you figure out which one is the problem, restore all the others.

How to find corrupted files

With my 2 yr old macbook, I cannot update my recently purchased iphone 4 when an ipdate is available. I get message: "...device isn't eligble for requested rebuild." I have worked with Apple store Genius bar staff 4 times with no sucess. Latest attempt was to erase HD, reinstall OS X, and only reinstall itunesin orde to test the update feature. In this scenario, with only itunes on the macbook, the update is successful. However, after I drag and dropped many, but not all, of my programs and files from the saved data on external HD back onto the macbook, and tried an update on a different iphone 4 (in our family plan), same problem. So I guess somewhere in what I transferred back onto the macbook is a bad file. I suppose I could go through the tedious process of transferring one program/file at a time onto the macbook, then trying the update again, but I can't do an update after each transfer because there is no new update to download, as they come out only every so often.
Is there a program that can scan the external HD to find bad/corrupted files? I have Spring cleaning and Drive Genius, neither of which seem to have the features to do such a scan (they do have disk scan, which I have run, along with Apple's Tech Tool, and all such scan operations have show no problems)
(to complicate this, this apparent bad file on this macbook likely came from my white intel based iMac. I first discovered this "updating of the iphone 4 problem" on the imac. When we bought the macbook, we bought one to one and had the Apple store do a complete transfer from the imac to the macbook in its first time set up. I purchased the iphone 4 in Sep 2010 and first tried an update in Nov 2010, which failed. I have been back to the Apple Genius bar 5 times since then with this problem. During one of those visits, Genius suggested trying to do just the update of my iphone 4 from the macbook, and that is when we discovered the macbook had the same problem. So this bad file likely was transferred to the macbook in that initial set up transfer. Furthermore, this macbook is still under AppleCare, yet that does not seem to mean anything to the Genius Bar. Tomorrow I will call applecare about this, but in the meantime, if anyone out there has a clue, I'm much obliged.

I didn't know of this console feature. I see Mozy.backup doing something. I had tried Mozy on this imac a long time ago and stopped using it, and I thought I had deleted it. When I just now searched for mozy, all I get is .pdf file. Do you think this could be the problem and how would I get totally rid of mozy files? Thanks

Corrupt contact causing problems with rest of contact list

Hello,
Tried using the search function, but got nothing that helped.
I have one corrupt contact that I cannot delete or edit. This contact is about 25 into my list of 567 and as a result, any apps that need access to the contact list do not work, as they cannot read beyond this corrupted contact. So Vlingo, WhatsApp, etc. Are not working properly.
Anybody have any idea what I can do to solve this?
Give them nothing, but take from them EVERYTHING! - King Leonidas
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I am having same problem too on my BB 9300. Next to 'new contact' I have ' * No contact * ' followed by about 12 empty spaces, followed by my contacts with one corrupt contact within. I cant fill up the space and I cant delete or edit the corrupt contact too. Please, is it possible to delete all my contact?I dont mind to restore all afresh. I will appreciate if the solution stated here could be forwarded to xxxxxxxx too.Thanks

Media on new external hard drive causing problems with FCP 4.1

Hi gang
I bought a new 160 gig external hard drive due to my internal media drives becoming fairly full of media (20 gigs left on each). The external is being used only for media. I removed ownership permissions on all the media drives but now when I boot up the computer, the external won't show on the desktop (am using the encryption keys that came with the drive). If this is the case I can open any FCP project. If I can get the external drive up on the desktop (usually by switching the firewire port from back to front), then none of my FCP projects will open up (have to force quit due to "not responding"). This is drivng me nuts!!
Any ideas ??
thanks . . . .

Thanks for the replies. I bought the drive from an Apple reseller, told him it was for media storage and he sold me the drive with a Macally hardware encrypted "enclosure". I guess I could (or should have) increased the size of my three internal drives but will return this sucker as the replies I have received all indicate the encryption "feature" is one I don't need. Taking it back and thanks for the advice . . . as always this forum is extremely helpful !!

How do I find corrupt file that would be disallowing proper exporting of movie?

How do I find corrupt file that would be disallowing proper exporting of movie?

I usually start by exporting to AME (as opposed to encoding "in-process" by clicking Export in the Export Settings dialog). Then watch the preview in AME's Encoding panel to see where it chokes. Adding an adjustment layer over the whole sequence with the Timecode effect applied--and scaled up to full frame width--can really help isolate the location.
That approach can be a pain in cases where it chugs away for a long time before encoding fails. In those cases, I use a divide-and-conquer approach:
Is it the video or the audio?: Disable all video tracks and encode. Then re-enable the video and mute all audio tracks
Where in the timeline is the problem: Export the first half, then the second half (using In/Out Points). Then keep dividing the half that fails until you've narrowed it down to a relative handful of clips.

How to find duplicate files in Finder with Automator or Apple ScriptEditor

Can anyone tell me how to find duplicate files in Finder with Automator or Apple ScriptEditor.

D'oh! It's actually fairly easy - I just right clicked on the file, Get Info, Artwork tab, then dragged the picture to the desktop, from where I can do what I like with it. Never mind, nothing to see here, carry on.

Question about how javac finds referenced files.

Hi
I am just beginning to learn Java and have got some questions related to packages.
I have two classes:
MyClass.java
package pkg;
public class MyClass {
     public void prn(int x){
     System.out.println("Integer: "+x);
Test.java
import pkg.*;
public class Test{
     public static void main(String[] args){
          MyClass obj=new MyClass();
          obj.prn(2);
Directory structure
/root/ jprog/MyClass.java
/root/ jprog/Test.java
Executing the following sequence of commands gives me:
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java
# javac -d . MyClass.java
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java pkg/
# cd pkg
# ls
MyClass.class -----compiles.
# cd ..
# javac Test.java
Test.java:5: cannot access MyClass
bad class file: ./MyClass.java
file does not contain class MyClass
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
MyClass obj=new MyClass();
^
1 error
Now after reading another thread on this forum I came to know that the compiler finds the
MyClass.java in the wrong package. Using verbose option with javac shows this.
So I move it to some other directory and everything works.
# mv MyClass.java /root
# ls
Test.java pkg/
# javac Test.java
# java Test
Integer: 2
Now the question begins:
Suppose we go back to how the files were arranged before I moved the MyClass.java file and
I change the Test.java file by adding
package pkg2;
statement to it.
Now everything compiles
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java ---I have deleted pkg and .class files
# cat Test.java
package pkg2;
import pkg.*;
public class Test{
public static void main(String[] args){
MyClass obj=new MyClass();
obj.prn(2);
# cat MyClass.java
package pkg;
public class MyClass {
public void prn(int x){
System.out.println("Integer: "+x);
# javac -d . MyClass.java
# javac -d . Test.java
# ls
MyClass.java Test.java pkg/ pkg2/
# java pkg2.Test
Integer: 2
Why isn't the MyClass.java file causing any problems now?
Using the verbose option with javac shows that the compiler goes straight for the pkg/MyClass.class.
My readings of Core Java Horstmann tell me that the compiler always looks in the current directory. javac documentation also doesn't help. I know that the documentation recommends that the source file locations should match the package statements.
I'm just trying to learn how javac finds referenced files.
Any help??
Thanks a load in advance.

I know that the
documentation recommends that the source file
locations should match the package statements.This is not merely a recommendation, it is a requirement.
Both javac and java find classes by traversing the classpath. The classpath should contain directories (or jar files) that correspond to the top of a (part of the) package hierarchy.
For example, if the Java code for your class is in a file C:\src\pkg\MyClass.java, and MyClass.java declares the class to be in package pkg, the classpath should contain C:\src. Classes are then found by transforming their package declaration into a directory structure.
Please note that javac works on files, not classes. Therefore it is necessary to specify the full filenames of the files you want to compile, even if you have specified the classpath. By default, javac will put compiled class files in the same location as their sources, so the classpath for the java command should also contain C:\src.
The exception to the rule is when all classes for the program are in the default package (i.e., they do NOT contain a package statement). In that case, it is possible for javac (and I believe java as well) to find all classes in the current directory, so it will "just work".
You can specify the classpath using the -cp parameter to both javac and java.
Hope this helps.

My Mac is 15 months old and all of a sudden it has started resetting the time and date then I get a message saying not all apps will work because of the pre Jan date any help as to why ? Causing problems with wireless router.

My Mac book pro is 15 months old and now suddenly it has started resetting the date and time, causing problems with applications and my wireless access. Any suggestions as to why this is happening and how to fix it?

Seems the time isn't being saved to your computer correctly, it may be a corrupt file that isn't saving the time anymore.
You can move the
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
file out of your Users/Library/Preferences folder to the desktop and reboot.
then go to your System Preferences > Date and Time and set a time server close to your location (or in your time zone)
(trash the file on the desktop if no ill issues occur later on)
or you can follow/bookmark these support docs to reset your PRAM and SMC (and for future reference)

I don't remember exactly where OS X is keeping it time settings now, but I think one of those choices should help resolve your issue and won't hurt anything giving them a shot. Perhaps someone else could refresh my memory.

If I install the update to Adobe Reader 10, will that cause problems with Acrobat Pro 9?

Firefox (version 15.0.1) is telling me I need to install an update to Adobe Acrobat 9.4 in order to view pdf files in my browser. I use Acrobat Pro 9. The update is actually Adobe Reader 10, and I am wondering if I install this, will it cause problems with my version of Acrobat Pro?
Because I am not sure if this is so, I have temporarily disabled the plug-in and now pdf files download automatically rather than display in my browser. I would prefer they open in my browser but do not want to upgrade to Acrobat X.
My OS is Windows Vista. I did not include the "troubleshooting information" file because I'm not sure what specific info is being requested.
Thanks for any help.

Hi WMdotcom
did you try to view pdf with your acrobat pro 9 ?

The only way to move files or folders/subfolders without causing problems, that is not creating 'missing files' is to do this from within the Organizer, not the OS (Win/Mac).
You can create folders and move pictures from the Organizer.
Note that if you are moving the files of several subfolders into a single one, you run the risk of wanting to move files with the same filename into the same folder ; your OS won't allow that. So the Organizer will rename pictures if needed.
If you want to do such a big reorganizing task, absolutely do a full backup before. There is no advantage for such a reorganizing from an Organizer point of view, but if you need it for some reason, it has to be done from within the organizer.

Hi there
Sorry for hijacking your thread as put by Dahveed. However I have resolved my issue so I thought I'll share it with the rest of you.
I checked for the error 3194 in youtube and I found some good videos that tell you how to resolve the problem. The issue I was facing was the actually (I know because I have resolved it now) the communication between my computer and apple server which can be fixed as following (if you are using windows):
There is file in following directory:
C:\Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
The file normally has no extension and it is in file format. You need to open it and make sure that every line that has apple server id starts with "#". In my case one of the line started directly with the ip address and then gs.apple.com.
Perform your restore/update after that and hopefully it should be resolved (mine did).
Cheers

Upgrading to 10.5 causes problem with Entourage

I have a problem which I believe to be a Mac OS problem even though it affects Entourage v.X. After upgrading the OS from 10.4 Tiger to 10.5.8 on a PowerPC Mac, Entourage crashes when opening mail that contains complex html. This only happens with the main user account and never happened before the upgrade. Email that only contains text and URL links opens OK. Logging out and back in to a new User, I am able to open and view the same emails that caused problems with the main user.

Generally when an application crashes in one account but it does in another account that indicates that something in the account where the application crashes is corrupt.
You have two choices then. You can either find out where the corruption is located and repair it or if that is too bit of job you can switch accounts.

If there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.
Most commonly used backup methods
Sometime that won't work and you need to do more

Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4

Frustrating problem: Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4. What happens is this. When I am in PS CS4 or CS3 and run the following script it runs fine. When I am in Bridge and go to tools/photoshop/batch and run the same script it runs until it wants interaction with preference.rulerunits. How do I get it to quit doing this so I can run in batch mode? Any help is appreciated. HLower
Script follows:
// this script is another variation of the script addTimeStamp.js that is installed with PS7
//Check if a document is open
if ( documents.length > 0 )
var originalRulerUnits = preferences.rulerUnits;
preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES;
try
var docRef = activeDocument;
// Create a text layer at the front
var myLayerRef = docRef.artLayers.add();
myLayerRef.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
myLayerRef.name = "Filename";
var myTextRef = myLayerRef.textItem;
//Set your parameters below this line
//If you wish to show the file extension, change the n to y in the line below, if not use n.
var ShowExtension = "n";
// Insert any text to appear before the filename, such as your name and copyright info between the quotes.
//If you do not want extra text, delete between the quotes (but leave the quotes in).
var TextBefore = "Lower© ";
// Insert any text to appear after the filename between the quotes.
//If you do not want extra text, delete between the quotes (but leave the quotes in).
var TextAfter = " ";
// Set font size in Points
myTextRef.size = 10;
//Set font - use GetFontName.jsx to get exact name
myTextRef.font = "Arial";
//Set text colour in RGB values
var newColor = new SolidColor();
newColor.rgb.red = 0;
newColor.rgb.green = 0;
newColor.rgb.blue = 0;
myTextRef.color = newColor;
// Set the position of the text - percentages from left first, then from top.
myTextRef.position = new Array( 10, 99);
// Set the Blend Mode of the Text Layer. The name must be in CAPITALS - ie change NORMAL to DIFFERENCE.
myLayerRef.blendMode = BlendMode.NORMAL;
// select opacity in percentage
myLayerRef.opacity = 100;
// The following code strips the extension and writes tha text layer. fname = file name only

Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.
