I can't find the backup file.

Hi all,
I have a simple question to ask to this forum.
I have a Compaq 6910p. I just re-installed XP pro (with SP3).
After I completed installation, I run HP Backup and Recovery Manager, to make a copy of entire partiton c: (I have 3 partition).
1st question:
When program started, I noted that software do not offer the choose to copy the backup file in a cd/DVD support and then I decided to make the disk as destination of the backup file.
Why program not offer other choose for destination file? Is it normal?
2nd question:
After completed the backup, I searched it on the disk the backup file to copy it on a DVD , but I not found it. Where is it?
Thanks for help

You should be able to verify the backup location by accessing the change settings option in the following document.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/set-up-or-change-automatic-backup-settings
If you navigate to the location indicated in the settings and it's still not there, try enabling view hidden files and folders to ensure it isn't hidden to protect it.
The backup may be too large to fit it onto a single disk. The only way I know to get a Windows Backup to span multiple disks is to use Windows Backup and set the DVD drive (which it wouldn't let you at the time) as the destination. It spans the backup across multiple disks at the time it is created in a unique way.

Don't you just love changes in interfaces?
I found the answer to my question.
When you attach a device (iPhone, iPad) to your Mac, in iTunes 12 in appears as a tiny icon in the second "row" of the iTunes display. Click the icon and the familiar iTunes display for the device appears. From there, on the Summary screen, you can see the dates of the backups of the device (iCloud and backup to the computer). You can also use the button to backup to the computer.

If you are asking about where iTunes stores backup files, see this knowledge base article for the info.
If a general statement of backups, then then you have to look at each application to see where it saves according to its preferences window.

Where can I find the backup files in iTunes for my iPhone, I want a copy

Where can I find the backup files in iTunes for my iPhone, I want to copy the backup files for all app's and phone numbers, I'm using Windows XP
I just need to know where its hiding, a link that shows an address where would sure help

First you'll need to make sure your XP is set up to view hidden files and folders.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
5. Click OK.
Now you should be able to track down your backup file at the location in the following document:

IWeb works, but I can't find the domain file!!!!

OK - this one has had me stumped for a few days now... I have iWeb (vs. 1.1.2 - from the '06 iLife). I need to find the domain file. It isn't in the home/library/app. support/iWeb folder. I didn't move it. I searched for it using command-F and using spotlight on my computer.
iWeb is to reset and start from scratch if there isn't a domain file on your hard drive. So I know it's there somewhere (at least, I think it is?). My site is there. I can publish. I can make changes, however I can't find the domain file to make a back up of it. I don't think that I made it invisible - could I have somehow done that? And if so, is it possible to find it? I believ the program only works if the file is named "domain" so I don't think that I could have accidentally renamed it.
Is there someone out there who can help me? I don't want to have to start from scratch and rebuild the websites.
Thanks for your input!

This is from Multisite's Technical Page:
Technical Information
While you don’t need to understand how data is stored to use Multisite for iWeb it can be helpful occasionally to understand what is going on behind the scenes. At a nuts and bolts level Multisite for iWeb stores all of its sites in your home folder’s Documents folder in a single package (which is really a fancy folder dressed up to look like a file) called “Multisite for iWeb Data.mfi.”
You can open that package like this.
Once you get your domain file straightened out I'd definitely get Varkgirl's Automator application to make frequent backups of that file. You can get it Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site.

Why does Itunes say it can't find the original file for a particular song?

why does Itunes say it can't find the original file for a particular song? and then asks if I want to locate it? I can't access a bunch of old song files. any new cds are available to me in itunes. all others are not accessible. how do i merge the new cd's with the old ones so that all the songs are playable in Itunes. thanks.

Of course, I have backed up to CD and/or external drive.
I'm wondering if you're attempting to maintain your library on your external HDD? If iTunes has been directed to use a location on your external hard drive as your iTunes Music Folder location (you can check this in iTunes > Preferences > Advanced tab) you MUST ensure that the hard drive is connected to the computer and mounted in the Finder prior to launching iTunes. If it isn't, it can cause this error to appear. This is probably one of the most common reasons this error begins to appear.
It seemed my purchased songs were the first to DISAPPEAR and I had to rebuy.(Nice scam in the bug?)
So... why not restore them from your backup? If, for some reason, this wasn't an option, you could have also recovered them from any iPod or iPhone they were currently synced to (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848), or, you can also email iTunes Store support and request a "regrant," which is a once-per-account exception they might be able to offer you and allow you to download missing purchases again.
I am now convinced this a HUGE BUG in 7.7.1. and possibly the previous version or two.
I'm not so sure... I've never run across this particular error (my library is stored on my internal hard drive, but copied to an external for backup purposes with an application other than iTunes or Finder. I don't think Apple will provide acknowledgment to issues experienced only by very small numbers of people... I'm one of those, perhaps foolish, individuals who allows my computer to download updates immediately, rather than waiting for fear of problems, and again, I've never had this error.

Where do I find the backup files when the iPhone is backed up?

Where do I find the backup files when the iPhone is backed up?
Thanks in advance.

On the Mac they're at ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup. But, there aren't files there you can directly use - the backup is actually a SQLite database.
iPhone Backup Extractor (Google it) is a free Mac utility that can access some parts of the backup.

I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to.. When I've tried to download and install again

I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to.. When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists." It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
What specific Window operating system are you using?
Let us go through the usual drill...
1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
Local Disk C
Program Files (x86)
Common Files
Adobe
and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
computer as Premiere Elements 13?
Let us start here and then decide what next.
Thank you.

My LV program can't find the iak file when the program is loaded from a different PC.

Hello all,
My LV vi with Fieldpoint I/O and it's IAK file are stored on the company network.  If I load and run the LV vi from the PC it was developed on, everything is fine. If I load and run on a different PC (that has an identical install of LV), the LV vi can't find the IAK file (all of the I/O pointers to the file are grayed out.)
Also, if I make an EXE out of the vi on the machine that can find the IAK, it won't find it if it's run from the other machine.
It is not related to whether one machine has different "rights", as they are identical. It's not related to different installs of LV, as they are identical.
I have found that this is related to the network login name/password, and to the machine's network name.  If I login on the second machine and try to run the program, it won't find the IAK. If I point it to the IAK it will run. If I save it and log out, and then login as a different user with the same rights on the second machine, it won't find the IAK again, until I re-point it there when I re-run it. This is true for both the vi and the EXE.
This problem makes deploying the EXE difficult to different machines, as the first time it's run, the EXE has to be pointed to the IAK. Pointing the EXE to the IAK is difficult as these installations have no keyboard or mouse.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this so the LV vi or it's EXE finds the IAK from no matter where it's loaded from?
Thanks,
Mike

Laura,
I figured I'd continue this thread because it's along he same line..
I have two Fieldpoint systems. They are identical, except for one thing...one has an AI-110 in position 7...the other has nothing. Both have the same IP address, etc and I swap the ethernet cable between them when I want to select which one I use. I use a dedicated ethernet card to the FP processor...and it's not the company net.
There are two IAK files...one for the system with the AI-110, one for the system without the AI-110. The two IAKs are in different paths.
Before I had the system and the IAK without the AI-110, I made an EXE of the code that woked with the AI-110, and it worked fine.
But now if I run the EXE after I've used MAX and opened the IAK without the AI-110, the EXE won't read the AI-110! I have to go back into MAX and open the IAK that has the AI-110 in it, close MAX and restart the EXE for the EXE to see the AI-110. (Max is NOT SET to "Download Items on Save")
I looks like the EXE is looking at MAX to get the IAK or a pointer to the IAK.
Did I build my EXE incorrectly? Shouldn't an EXE completely ignore MAX once it's made?
Thanks,
Mike

Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

You can't do that.
And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

Where can i find the cached file?

where can i find the cached file?.
while one video was getting cached . I could see the cached file in the cache directory that mozilla firefox uses which in my pc is .....Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\uujksq39.default\Cache. but later on when the full video was completely cached i couldnt find the file existing in that directory and i still have my session of that firefox opened and can watch the video from the firefox session.
since the cached video is still there ,there most be some place where the firefox is storing that file. is it the case that when the file is big (greater than some threshold value) firefox stores in some other directory?

You can do a search an the about:cache page.

Below is what comes up when I sign into iCloud - where are all the other applications that I need to backup?
Appreciate any answers to this query?

Your question is unclear. If you're backing up to your iMac, (via iTunes, with cable or WiFi), this has nothing to do with iCloud and the backup is stored on your iMac here:
: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
