How to save Bridge info (ie collections) before system re-install

I am about to do a clean install of my XP system.
I currently have Bridge CS4, and have saevd a number of collections.
How can i save the collection information so that once I have done a clean system install and reinstalled Bridge that I can reinstate the bridge data so that I will still have access to all of my collections. I don't want to save the collections out to folders, as this defeats the point of having the collections!
I may also upgrade to CS5 (if that has any influence on the answer).

wel, I wouldn't say that there is 'nothing' to save. If I don't do anything, I will loose all of my collections. this is valueable information that I need (for example, collections for online portfolios, etc, which link to files all over my catalogue).
I am hoping to find out which exact config files i need to ensure i have so that I can make sure I don't loose this information. I will be able to keep the harddrive letters the same, so the paths won't change.
As for upgrading to windows 7 64bit, 8 GB RAM - this is on the cards, but not for another 6-9 months, and will be brand new machine.
Reinstall is required for now, as XP is slowly grinding to a halt. Has been 3 years since last clean install. And I need to keep this machine ticking along for the time being.
Can anyone confirm exactly what settings files i need to grab to ensure i don't loose my collections?

    Hi all,

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi

    SAP DMS - Document Management System
    SAP DMS are for storing documents such as CAD drawings, Materials pictures etc.
    With the document management system, users will be able to view the documents with ease within their SAP systems.
    Installing the SAP DMS requires a little bit of planning on how you want to do it.
    You have to give a little thoughts to stuff such as :-
    1.  The total numbers of documents that will be store monthly.
    2.  The average file size of each documents.
    3.  The capacity of your present R/3 system.
    4.  Your present network bandwidth.
    5.   Document Archiving Strategy.
    6.   Backup and Recovery Plan.
    Additional purchasing of hardware are required, especially if you have large amount of documents to stored.
    With this in mind, you can then decide on how you want to do it.
    You can do this in a few ways :-
    1.  Import the documents into the R/3 system.
    2.  Use an external document server.
    3.  Have a dedicated PCs where all the documents are stored.
    Most companies that intend to used DMS will opt for Option 2 as they does not want to overstretch the R/3 database.
    Options 1 requires you to setup the conversion interface. 
    The conversion interface allows R/3 to automatically covert your files and import it into the R/3 database.
    Here is a simple example of storing documents into your PCs, just to have a feel how the SAP DMS works:-
    For those using Citrix, you have to set this at the Citrix Server where the SAPGUI is located.
    Configure SM30 - V_TDWE_C1
    Put this command in your autoexec.bat
    SET HOSTNAME=PC1234
    Restart your pc.
    You can create/manage your documents in transaction code CV01N / CV02N
    Assigning Documents to a Material Master Record
    Access a material master record in Create or Change mode, and select Basic Data. 
    To create links to documents, choose Additional data -> Document data.
    The Link to Documents dialog box appears.
    Assign one or more documents to the material. 
    If you do not know what the document number is, you can search for it using the search help or by choosing Find document.
    When assigning a document to a material, you have the following options:
    1. Viewing the document by choosing it in the Link to Documents dialog box.
    2. Viewing any originals of the document by positioning the cursor on the document and 
       choosing Display originals in the Link to Documents dialog box.
    To return to the Basic Data screen, choose Continue.
    Save your data.

  • How to save GPS info to an image's Properties

    Dear All,
    I am trying to save GPS information to an image, but I 've got an error message: "The parameter is incorrect. WinRT information: Cannot write to the specified property (System.GPS.Latitude). The property is read-only."
    Could you please help me to find out what's the wrong with my source code?
    And is System.GPS.Latitude a read-only property? How can I change the property to read/write?
    double GPSLatitude = 25.125965;
    List<string> propertiesName = new List<string>();
    propertiesName.Add("System.GPS.Latitude");
    IDictionary<string, object> extraProperties = await photoStorageFile.Properties.RetrievePropertiesAsync(propertiesName);
    extraProperties.Add("System.GPS.Latitude", GPSLatitude);
    await photoStorageFile.Properties.SavePropertiesAsync(extraProperties);
    Thanks,
    Angie

    I'm trying to achieve the same result, but using a BitmapEncoder.
    The Latitude works fine but I just can't seem to get the Longitude to write to the file correctly.
    (All the other properties are working fine.)
    The inputStream is from the webcam via a capture control.
    Pretty sure the decoder would behave the same if inputStream was from an StorageFile though.
    Any ideas please?
    Windows.Storage.Streams.IRandomAccessStream outputStream = await imageFile.OpenAsync(FileAccessMode.ReadWrite);
    var decoder = await Windows.Graphics.Imaging.BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(inputStream);
    BitmapEncoder encoder = await Windows.Graphics.Imaging.BitmapEncoder.CreateForTranscodingAsync(outputStream, decoder);
    BitmapPropertySet bitmapPropSet = new BitmapPropertySet();
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.Subject", new BitmapTypedValue(txtPhotoSubject.Text.Trim(), PropertyType.String));
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.GPS.LatitudeNumerator", new BitmapTypedValue(new int[3] { 47, 38, 24471 }, PropertyType.Int32Array));
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.GPS.LatitudeDenominator", new BitmapTypedValue(new int[3] { 1, 1, 1000 }, PropertyType.Int32Array));
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.GPS.LatitudeRef", new BitmapTypedValue("E", PropertyType.String));
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.GPS.LongitudeNumerator", new BitmapTypedValue(new int[3] { 122, 7, 470316 }, PropertyType.Int32Array));
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.GPS.LongitudeDenominator", new BitmapTypedValue(new int[3] { 1, 1, 10000 }, PropertyType.Int32Array));
    bitmapPropSet.Add("System.GPS.LongitudeRef", new BitmapTypedValue("N", PropertyType.String));
    await encoder.BitmapProperties.SetPropertiesAsync(bitmapPropSet);
    await encoder.FlushAsync();
    Here's the resulting properties...
    EDIT (2nd Oct 2013)
    Only thing that seems to fix the issue is to not include the LongitudeDenominator property.
    Commenting out that line works ok.
    I also needed to leave the LatitudeDenominator as 1,1,1 and just include the whole seconds.
    Close enough.

  • I uninstalled acrobat 7.x and chose to save license info.  Now I can't install CS2.  How can I uninstall license info?

    OK,
    I bought Acrobat 7 quite a few years ago, but it cost me $450.  I believe I should be able to keep using it or at least the alternative (CS2 ?)
    So I went through the instructions to remove Acrobat 7 from my computer (Win7) and when it asked if I wanted to save the License information I clicked yes.......I think that was a big mistake, because later I downloaded CS2 and the installer won't work.
    Error Message:  Error 1310. Error writing to the file: C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat7.0\AcroPDF.DEU.  Verify that you have access to that directory.       abort      retry     ignore
    I believe I have to remove the Acrobat 7.0 license information from my system, but I don't have the abilities to do it.  I have attempted changing permissions on the folders, but no avail.
    Can someone please help me?  It seems that Adobe no longer supports me in any other way than this community.
    Thanks
    Curtis

    That message doesn't suggest to me anything about licenses. Rather it does suggest a problem with permissions on that folder and the user you are using to install. Can you create files in C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat7.0?

  • How to transfer account info out of Previous System folder?

    I ran an archive & install (using the OS 10.4 install disk) and neglected to check Preserve User Settings. The information is in Previous Systems, but now that the install has created new user account info I'm not sure what to do. I can copy in the whole user account from Previous Systems, but then I have multiple accounts in Users and I don't know which controls, or if that's a problem. Is there a way to transfer the account settings from Previous Systems into the new User account? I notice that direct copy won't work -- Library won't allow it. Move individual files? Thanks.

    Hi Ravi,
    u can try it manually to delete the User defined objects..
    or u can use the prg: RSDG_IOBJ_DELETE and in that u can give some selection of objects for the deletion..

  • How to save address book & mailboxes prior to new OSX install

    I need to re-install Leopard and delete everything on the drive, because the entire system seems messed.  However, I would like to keep my mail boxes and my address book.  Can I save these on a thumb drive and then reload them after the install?  How do i do that?   Thanks.

    Hello,
    On Mail...
    First Quit Mail, then I'd backup these two Mail folders, by right clicking on them in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
    Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
    Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
    (Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
    Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place, same for the Mail Downloads folder... only the plist is separate.
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    For Address Book, quit AB...
    Files...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist

  • Best way how to write FPGA data in rt cRIO system in tdms file

    Hej,
    I am struggling to write measured data from an analog input (NI 9215) sampled at up to 20 kHz to a tdms file in the rt system (crio-9022). I just need to save several periods of 4 arbitrary analog signals at frequencies between 5 Hz and 1KHz. So storing up to 50k values should already be enough.
    I use a high priority and a low priority loop. First I tried to adapt the example from the "Getting Started with CompactRIO - Logging Data to Disk" (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/11198). But when I used this in my high priority loop (running at 1ms), the loop runs out of time and the rt system becomes unresponsible. If I change the number of elements to write (the number of elements to wait for in the fifo read block) it becomes better, but still data is lost because the loop finishes late.
    So I was thinking to create a RT fifo and to store all the values from the measurement first in this memory inside the high priority loop and then write the values to the tdms file in the low priority loop. This time I used the read/write fpga block instead of the FPGA fifo block. It was already working better but writing the files to the tdms file took a lot of time since each value was read and written to the tdms file individually. Unfortunately I could not find a possibility how to write the whole rt fifo to the tdms file at once. Is there a block available or is it possible to create a big array first and then write the data to the tdms file at once? My code I tried is in this second picture.
    I hope someone can give me some tips which method should be better for my project and a hint what I did wrong or what I can optimize. I stucked for days now on how to save my measurements on the cRIO system.
    Thank you very much in advance. Have a nice weekend.
    Best regards
    Andy
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    HiXiebo and Christian,
    thank you very much for your answers. Actually, my high priority loop is much slower. I run it with a maximum loop time of 50us = 20kHz or slower, depending on my Signal I want to measure. So my data producing rate is maximum 4*8*20k=640 KB/s. My low priority loop runs at 2ms to 5 ms (much slower then the high priority loop), since I am doing just some simple math calculation there and control the front panel in this loop.
    I understand that it is much more efficient to write blocks of data (e.g. 1024*32KB instead of just 32KB) to a file with TDMS. But is it also the same for a queue or RT FIFO, i.e. does the block size of the data chunks also matter for the queue and RT FIFO?
    @Xiebo: I understand that caching the read data from the FPGA in the high priority loop first will improve my code. But I do not know how I can cache the data I read? I was thinking to do it with the FPGA FIFO, but the FPGA read/write blocks seem to be faster for me and I do not know why? Can you tell me a block/vi to cache the data I read from the FPGA or maybe even an example?
    @Christian: This NI_MinimumBufferSize property looks exactly what I was looking for. But my question is now if I should put the tdms write VI's in my high priority loop and read directly from the FPGA FIFO buffer to the file as it is done in the Disk logging example at http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/11198? Or is it better to read the data from the FPGA via the FPGA read/write function, write the data to a RT FIFO in the high priority loop and then write the data with the  NI_MinimumBufferSize property option to the tdms file from the RT FIFO in the low priority loop?
    In summary, I am still unsure if the FPGA FIFO or the FPGA read/write function with a queue or RT FIFO is better for me and how I can create a cache to build chunks of data blocks to write.
    Thank you very much in advance for your help.
    Best regards
    Andy

  • How to Save the "Document Info" Details Action Via

    I saved the "Document Info" details in illustrator manually using "Document Info Pannel". Could you please expain how to save the "Document Info" details through illustrator action.
    Thanks,
    Prabudass

    When in the document info window of a file there is a small triangle in the top right corner from this you have fly out menus to save/delete or show metadata templates. You can use this to save groups of metadata. Once you have a bunch of groups you can quickly use this to set your info. Bridge will also allow you to append or replace metadata from these saved templates too

  • How do I save Bridge workspace settings so that screen opens as I want it?

    I use CS3 on Intel iMac.  Recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, but had printer problems and have uninstalled and gone back to Leopard fttb.  Software wiped of course and carelessly I didn't save PS settings.  CS3 now reinstalled.
    I use Bridge to scroll through my images and then open in PS.  I know how to save my own customised workspace (Window, Workspace, Save etc) and I make it Workspace 1 in the lower right boxes.  I like the panel maximised without any of my desktop showing (e.g. as when hitting the green button top left) and I like Folders opened up showing in left hand panel, with files showing in vertical film strip on right.  Every time I open up Bridge the panel is smaller than the one I saved so I have to maximise the screen.  Also Favorites opens up, not my Folders so I then have to open up several sub folders to get the right ones.
    Before uninstalling then reinstalling Leopard, Bridge appeared the way I wanted but I can't figure out how to do it again i.e. it doesn't come on the way I left it.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.
