How to set directory for preview files?

I have my Media Cache folders set to an external hard drive, but Premiere Pro still continues to create hundreds of rendered preview files in the default location of Users/username/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/8.0/Adobe Premiere Preview Files, filling up my main disk and then crashing when it gets full. Is the preview file folder a separate setting somewhere?
Mac Pro 5,1, OSX 10.9.4

I am having a problem with this as well since installing 8.0. PP 7.2.2 and previous versions did not have this issue.
When I set the Media Cache preferences to store all cache on an external hard drive it will in fact do so with the exception of IMS files which it still puts in the default of C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Media Cache Files.
Win 7 Pro
PP CC 2014
2014.0.1 / 8.0.1

  • How to list directory for required files

    private int checkForFile() throws Exception

    I have to check for all matches in the pattern, if any one file is missing it should specify that the file not found.

    the pattern string contains 7 possible file names
    like MYFILEE.dat, MYFILEG.DAT, MYFILEH.DAT and so on.
    I know how to list the directory but I have match for all 7 possible file names. If some file is missing today and Pattern.matches has matched only 6 of them then it should stop continuing and throw file not found message
    i hope u understand my requirement

  • How to change directory for VOD files

    Hello..
    My company has recently asked me to install the Adobe Streaming Server 4.0.  I was wondering if it is possible to have the server software reside on the C: drive, while having my VOD files on seperate D: drive.  The staff here wants to separate the software (server in this instance) from the individual flash video files, so they have set up two drives.  Any suggestions here?  Can this be done, or do the files have to reside inside the VOD folder on the C: drive?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your interest in FMS 4.
    Yes , you can have the FMS installation in the C drive and the media files any where else. Go to the FMS installation directory and to the conf folder under it. There is a fms.ini configuration file where we can edit the settings for the vod folder. Find a variable VOD_DIR which is now pointing to the vod/media folder under FMS. Change it to the location that you would like to have.

  • How to set up a basic file sharing server for my small architectural business?

    I have no idea if I have posted in the correct area as this is my first forum post within the apple support community!
    I have been using a 21.5" imac running 10.6.8 for the past 5 years to run my small home based architectural design business. I have been using the internal hard drive & backing up the necessary data to a simple usb external hard drive. I am now looking to firstly purchase a new imac 27" retina and purchase new autocad lt 2015 for mac software. I am looking to have another imac (my old mac) running in conjunction with the new mac. I want both macs to be able to access the same data and am slightly unsure what is the best way to achieve this.....As my old mac is currently only running snow leopard and an old version of autocad for mac 2011 it wont run on any more recent OS. Essentially i believe I have 2 main options with this.... (1) I Accept that I have to purchase 2 no. autocad lt 2015 licences @ a cost of £2300. Or option (2), I only run autocad on the new mac as this will be the primary station and the old mac used for primarily for admin & accounts. I have also recently discovered that it is possible to rent autocad licences for £300p/a which may also be another option (3)!
    I previously had a problem where my hard drive failed on my mac & lost all data on the internal hard drive, luckily I had been backing up all data regularly to my external hard drive and now loss occurred! Obviously with any new system I want to ensure that my data is safe!
    I currently utilise about 250GB of data for business operations but this will obviously grow with time.
    In the future I would like to have the option of potentially being able to access the network data remotely via macbook pro whilst abroad although at this stage this really isnt my primary objective. Although I believe I could achieve this through apple remote desktop.
    I suppose I should provide some information with regard to the required speed of the system...I regularly open 50-100 photos at the same time totalling around 250-500MB. I would like the system to be able to handle this fairly easily.
    I have been trawling through forums and to be honest they are totally confusing me. I have also spent time on the phone to the apple business team and have also discussed my objectives with a member of the apple team in store.
    There have been various options advised to me and I really do not know which is the most appropriate route forward.
    1 - Using a mac mini as the file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the mac mini to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    2 - Using a time capsule as a file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the TC to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    3 - Using the new mac hard drive and linking the 2 macs via thunderbolt (old mac does not have thunderbolt and so I guess I would need another new mac?!) and then backing up the data to a time capsule.
    4 - Using a RAID based server and linking the 2 no. macs.
    Sorry to ramble but any advice really would be greatly received!

    Hi sblemings,
    Welcome to the community.
    I think with your scenario you should ask yourself, how complicated do you want the setup to be and how much time would you have to be able to resolve an issue should one occur with this setup.
    All the options that have been advised would work but they come with complexity and therefore time.
    1 - Using a mac mini as the file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the mac mini to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    2 - Using a time capsule as a file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the TC to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    3 - Using the new mac hard drive and linking the 2 macs via thunderbolt (old mac does not have thunderbolt and so I guess I would need another new mac?!) and then backing up the data to a time capsule.
    4 - Using a RAID based server and linking the 2 no. macs.
    Sorry to ramble but any advice really would be greatly received!
    option 1
    Would be a way to achieve what you want, it would centralise your files and you would only need to backup your file server (as long as all the files you wanted backed up were on it). This could be achieved either using the client and sharing various folders or using Server which would give you more options than you would possibly need.
    option 2
    This is exactly like option 1 except that you wouldn't have to administer another mac however you may limit any future growth.
    option 3
    This option I probably wouldn't pick, you could achieve this with firewire and use a firewire to thunderbolt adapter (saves you having to buy a new iMac)
    option 4
    This option would, depending on your RAID level, give you disk redundancy but remember you would still need to back this up, as RAID is NOT a backup solution.
    I would also ask is there a pressing need to keep the old iMac in service and complicating things by having a server / NAS? Could you not just transfer all your information over to this and continue with the one backup? I would say that doing it this was would be the simplest way of achieving what you want from what I can take from your question.
    As for remotely accessing your data, if you have the right hardware the way to achieve this would be to use a VPN and connect back to your data. However a potentially easier way for you ,would be to use a service like logmein or teamviewer to connect back.
    Hope this helps, and by all means any questions please ask.

    Heyy man, i think, u did not get my problem.
    all i have to do is:
    i have to create a zip file, and we should secure it with password when creating. and whenever the user wants to open that zip file he should provide correct passowrd otherwise he could not read that file. So, we should check for that also.

  • How to Stage directory for Oracle EBS R12.1.1 on Window Server 2008 ?

    Hi Every Body,
    1- How to Stage directory for Oracle EBS R12.1.1 downloaded from e-delivery.com on Window Server 2008.?
    -- I have download all files from e-delivery and check the md5 and all files are OK.
    I extracted the entire files with winrar program to the same directory and during the unzipping I was notified to replace these files (dvd.label and component.label) and I agreed each time. So >>
    2- Was that a problem ?
    -- I have setup vc++ from VS6 , the sp6, cygwin , ... and set up the active directory and the domain.. and all other requirements.
    BUT when i started the ebs set up it raise the "*Os User and Group Check*" error.
    even if I am the only user and sure I am the Administrator. and also I run this Command to be sure
    C:\>net localgroup administrators and it said that the administrator is one of the administrators group.
    3- Somebody said that I have to change the temp and tmp folder to be on c:\ drive >> might this solve the problem?
    thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Most of the instructions you have mentioned , already was configured.
    except for the tmp and temp directories.
    And even I changed them from System Properties >> Advanced >>  Environment Variable under User variable for Administrator and System variables , the problem still exist Os User and Group Check .
    I attach the conf_VIS.txt file because I thought it may help.
    http://www.4shared.com/document/1bS6aio5/conf_VIS.html
    Actually I am not sure about the rapid install patch version but I have download the EBS R12 from the following link and I think it contains the recent installer version
    Link >> Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
    http://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=11250138
    Note If you still can not open the link just suggest a suitable file hosting and I will upload to you. here I used 4shared and hoped it suits you.

  • Directory for archiving files with errors

    HI ,
    My Scenario is file to RFC Asynch.
    when ever the PI picks file from the source directory that file need to delete from the path and need to be archived to some other patch.
    And if the file has wrong data it need to archive to error archive folder.
    For this I used  Archive processing in filesender adapter and I also used directory for archiving files with errors(for wrong data files).
    Now the files are arching successfully in the given archive folder for successful messages. But the error files (wrong data which are throwing mapping error in MONI) are also archiving in the same archive folder.
    But these error files need to archive in error archive folder.
    How can I achieve this?
    Thanks in Adv..
    Vankadoath.

    you can use raja's logic ..........in addition in second receiver do a simple mapping UDF to delete the file from the SUCCESS folder. otherwise your file will be archived in both the folder success and errror
    see this code.
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) para.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
                   DynamicConfigurationKey keyFileName1 = DynamicConfigurationKey
                   .create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
                         inputFileName = conf.get(keyFileName1);
      *File f1 = new File("/usr/sap/XX/"+keyFileName1);*
      *boolean success = f1.delete();*
      *if (!success){*

  • How to set value for trim and bleed using jsx script?

    I have tried using bleedoffsetRect but somehow it is not working. Can anybody please help me on how to set value for trim and bleed using jsx script? Any example will be highly appreciated.
    Following is the code I am trying with:
    var _saveName = new File ( root_path +_strFileName+".pdf");
        var _saveOpts = new PDFSaveOptions();
        _saveOpts.printerResolution = 300; 
        var bleedarray = new Array();
         bleedarray[0] =9.00;
         bleedarray[1]=9.00;
         bleedarray[2]=9.00;
         bleedarray[3]=9.00;    
        _saveOpts.bleedOffsetRect = bleedarray;

    I would expect although I've not actually tried this for the bleed off set box to be larger than the artbaord and the first two values to be negative or 0…
    var bleedarray = new Array(-9,-9,artboard.width+9,artboard.height+9);
    Where 'artboard.width' & 'artboard.height' you will have calculated from your file. An Array(9,9,9,9); would not constitute any boxes bounds.

  • HOW TO: set anchoredObjectSettings for .palce() object?

    Hi, I'm currently working on interesting script for GREP placing, and I'm wondering how I can set anchoredObjectSettings for .palce() object?
    for(i=0; i < found.length; i++)
        foundElem = new File (myFolder + "/" + found[i].contents);
        found[i].place(foundElem); // Placing Ancored Object
        // HERE IS WHERE I NEED SOME HELP: how to set "anchoredObjectSettings" for just placed Ancored Object
        //anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition = AnchorPosition.ABOVE_LINE;
        //anchoredObjectSettings.horizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.TEXT_ALIGN;
    Here you can download example files - script, InDesign file and images, that should be placed into InDesign file with script
    Dropbox - GREP placing.zip
    PS: I believe this script will be very useful, so if anybody have any ideas/suggestions, and want to help me with further development - this would be great!

    Hi Kai, this script is still under development, here is updated version attached (now it can also place files/images by file name only, without extension):
    #target indesign;
    //#include  "! Basic functions.jsx"
        GREP place files.
        This script will ask to select source folder with files to place,
        and then, with dialog box (or prompt) [this is not implemented yet, so I use static GREP value while developing]
        will ask to type GREP find expresion to search for text placeholder, that need to be replaced with file from source folder we just selected.
        TODO: Check how it works with other than image formats
            Also, this might be usefull to make anchored frame with column widh, and fit image proportionally
    scriptName = decodeURI(File(app.activeScript).name.slice(0, -4)); // detect name of current script without expression
    function Alert(msg) // function for native-looking alerts

    Top part with Windows/Mac filtering was copy-pasted from default InDeign script "ImageCatalog.jsx" as example and modified - I'm not sure if all this stuff is needed, I haven't test if it works the same without those filtering on both OS - if that's not needed - then thanks for tip!
    PS: in your findWhat \l{3,4} will not catch .ai files
    and what means .source at the end? is that doing necessary escaping, so with it it's posible to write \l instead of \\l

  • Change default directory for Creative files (such as Media Databa

    I'm using a Zen xtra with WinXP Pro on my company laptop. The Creative software puts a lot of files (7 MB!) in my user profile under Document and Settings. Unfortunately, this is making my profile larger than my company allows, since they back up the profile over the network.
    How can I change the default directory for these file? I can't find any .ini files that might declare the path, and I can't find anything in the Windows Registry that points to my profile.
    Help please?
    Thanks,
    Luke

    Thanks for the suggestion of deleting the JetFileBackup folder, Micromouse. I'll try it.
    Any other files look deletable? Without any way to move them, I may have to try deleting some and see what happens.
    I'm not even sure which Creative programs can be uninstalled (other than Nomad Explorer) and still be able to use MediaSource to play songs from my Zen Xtra (through a USB connection). Windows Add/Remove Programs says that I've used all of these programs today:
    Creative Jukebox Driver
    Creative MediaSource
    Creative MediaSource AudioSync Plugin
    Creative MediaSource NOMAD Jukebox 2/3/Zen Plugin
    Creative NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra
    But all I've done is open MediaSource and start a playlist from my Zen Xtra. Anybody know which of those can be uninstalled without affecting my use? (Maybe this deserves a separate topic.)
    Thanks,
    Luke

  • How to set View for Completed items inside Tasks?

    How to set button for 'View' and see Completed items or not completed inside Tasks?

    Hi,
    You want to set custom views for Tasks folder so that when we click a view button, it will show all Completed or incomplete tasks, am I correct?
    Which version of Outlook are you using? There are existing views for completed/incomplete tasks in Outlook. In Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013, we can find the buttons under View tab > Change View. Click Completed button to view all completed
    tasks; Click Active button to view incomplete tasks.
    In Outlook 2007, just click View > Current View to switch between different views.
    If I've misunderstood something, please feel free to let me know.

  • How Can I Search for Media files by Length?

    I want know how can I search for media files (mov, mp4, flv and movie files in general) by their length?
    If this search function is confirmed as definitely not possible on the OS, I would appreciate someone recommending app that might be able to perform such a search?
    Many thanks

    No possible way. Because the files may be enoded with differing codecs, compression, etc., you can only sort by file size, not the 'length' of the movie files.

  • [JS][CS3]how to get refrence for source file

    Hi All
    I am new and learning javascript Gradually Could any one help on this as i do have a code for load style but don't know how to get refrence for "source file" and "targetDoc"
    targetDoc.importStyles(charImport, sourceFile, clashPolicy);
    targetDoc.importStyles(paraImport, sourceFile, clashPolicy);
    Can any one figure it out
    Many Thanks

    I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, could you please elaborate?
    Do you want to load all the styles from one document into all 100 documents, or do you want all the styles from the 100 documents into 1 document or what is the goal?
    The following will let you choose a folder of files, open each of the files in it and import the styles from source document. It is not a complete script, make sure to test and modify before running on anything else than test files :-)
    var MyFolderWithFiles = Folder.selectDialog ("Choose a folder");
    var sourceFile = File.openDialog("Choose the styles source");
    var myFiles = MyFolderWithFiles.getFiles("*.indd");
    for(i = 0; i < myFiles.length; i++) {
        theFile = myFiles[i];
        app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
        var targetDoc = app.open(theFile, true);
        app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;
        targetDoc.importStyles(ImportFormat.CHARACTER_STYLES_FORMAT, sourceFile, GlobalClashResolutionStrategy.LOAD_ALL_WITH_OVERWRITE);
        targetDoc.importStyles(ImportFormat.PARAGRAPH_STYLES_FORMAT, sourceFile, GlobalClashResolutionStrategy.LOAD_ALL_WITH_OVERWRITE);
        targetDoc.close(SaveOptions.YES);
