I cant find all my files

Hi!
I just opened Lightroom 5 and all my files are gone.
Any ideas?!

have your operating system search your all of your hard drives for all files ending with .LRCAT
If you find any, double-click on them and see if that is the catalog you are looking for.
If not, restore the catalog from a recent backup of the catalog file.

  • Find all music files and move to one folder for all of family to access, find all music files and move to one folder for all of family to access

    I seem to have music files in various places on my laptop, on my husbands computer and our main imac.  What we want to do is put all music on imac so when each of us logs on we have the same files availabe in itunes, but we logon seperately so we can have different playlists and checked music. So here is what I want to do:
    Find all music files on each computer seperately and put everything in one folder one each computer, so three folders total to start...
    Move my husbands itunes library and my itunes library from each of our laptops to our main imac, making one huge itunes folder
    I want to store our music on an external hard drive, which I have, so I have a full library for backup purposes.
    I want all future music downloaded on any of our laptops to transfer to the main imac computer, again to keep one main library
    I want all video, apps, books, etc on each laptop to be available in one file on my main imac also so we can all use them
    So mainly I want to organize, organize, organize and put everything in one spot so things don't get all messed up and some items are only accessible to me some times and not my husband or vice versa.  We want to share everything we can so we don't have to pay twice. I have read many instuctions, but nothing seems to be helping me and was hoping someone could...
    Thanks, l

    I am totally running into the same issue as well. On top of that, when syncing to my iPhone, it took some of the tracks from my iphone and recopied them to the iTunes library, as new files, so now I have a ton of duplicates, and tons of tracks that can't find the iTunes folder, so they have the little "!" next to them.
    It would be really nice to have someone answer this question. I didn't think, moving my iTunes library to a bigger external hard drive would have caused all this madness

  • Forefox won't start in windows XP: I get the message that windows "cant' find the exe file" even when I click from the program file, rather than the shortcut.

    Delete the current Firefox shortcut on the desktop and create a new desktop shortcut via the right-click context menu on the Firefox.exe program (Send to > Desktop)

    Hi there, I have much files saved on pages ( ios ipad) , I just open it today and did not find .all the files !!!! Just 4!!! Taken in consider that I did not delete or making any wrong action. How I can return the lost files!!!! Help please
    its very important files!

    tis true
    I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
    I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

  • General searches do not find all applicable files

    all files meeting a search category in Finder do not show up in the results.  Even when I search for a known specific file by the exact name it does not show up when searching for it in Finder.  The same thing happens when I search in Adobe Bridge.  any ideas?

  • Apple script to find all duplicate files

    Is it possible to write an applescript to find all duplicate file names on my hard drive? My hd is almost full, and if I can delete duplicate files, it'll save me from having to buy another external drive.
    Thanks,
    George

    Why would you have found 20GB of duplicate images?  iPhoto has built-in duplicate detection, it can remove any duplicates or prevent them from being imported altogether.  Did you disable this in iPhoto for some reason?  Or were you still using folders and subfolders to store your photos?
    Just because two pictures have the exact same filename does NOT mean they are identical.  If this application you used simply compared their filenames, it's possible you actually lost all those photos and not just some duplicates.  ;(  Because many cameras reuse filenames after a certain point!

  • We just received our new mac and took it to the store to have the old files from our last computer transferred over.  Now we can't find all our files.  There was more then one user on the old machine.  How can we find the files from the other users?

    We need to find where the files for the other user on the computer are now located.  There were two other users on the old machine, which was taken into the store and ALL files were suppose to be transferred over to this computer. HELP!

    It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
    I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
    So what to do, what to do.
    Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
    I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
    When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
    Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
    The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
    It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
    So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
    The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
    So what you will have to do is this:
    Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.

  • Cant find Safari preference file in Mavericks

    I upgraded to Mavericks and Safari isnt behaving right.  It won't even launch at all now and just make my MBPR system fan scream like a banchee.  I figured I could delete the preferences file and disable the exstensions for a start.  Problem is I can't launch Safari to disable the exstension.  I also can't find the pref file either.  Looked all over....
    Plz help.
    Thanks
    Greg

    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Click Go  then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the trash.
    For extensions. From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

    hi DilbertG
    Thanks for the quick reply
    I have the PDF file local and select it from the browse
    button.
    The path is absolute.
    The address that IE shows is a MSN search for the PDF file
    name - eg the file name is Students with learning difficulties.pdf
    it goes to a MSN search and looks for Students with learning
    difficulties.pdf web pages.
    I test this in preview and does the above mentioned.
    Do I need to save the PDF in a different location so
    captivate can access it?
    Thanks for the help,
    Cheers

  • Finder-All My Files- Previous '_' days.. how Do I erase the usage history? without deleting the actual file?

    How do you delete the Finder history in All My Files?
    I have 35,000 plus in the Previous 30 days category
    I'd like to clear all these out without 'trashing' them
    I HAVE gone to Go, Recent Folders and Clear AND the Apple icon
    Recent items and Clear, and I still have every thumbnail of every photo
    ever opened in my All My Files history..... (thousands)

    I also had the same issue, but I just discovered that you can set the finder to show, for example, 'Desktop' content by default. There are a few options on the dropdown list you will find there, but I figure you may want to go with the folder that shows fewer or no items at all (since you hate to see that endless list of files). Wanna try? Follow the following path:
    Finder > Preferences > General > "New Finder windows show:"
    Then choose the folder of your preference; close Finder to refresh; reopen Finder and the long list will be gone. For good! Notice though that, in doing this, you won't be deleting any files from Finder but rather putting them out of sight when you run Finder. So, in case you really need to pull up a file based on history, they will be just a click away on the top of the Finder's FAVORITES menu. It's working for me, and I hope it will work for you, too.
