IDVD Render Files (are there any that can be deleted?)
Hi all
Just to make certain, whether or not iDVD is still working from an older iDVD rendered file, is there somewhere to delete these files? Render files?
(like FCE stores them)
Perhaps not
In this particular case, I deleted an old movie file, but created a new one with the same name. I just wanted to make sure because I still see the same glitch from a particular frame in the movie.
(I'm sure it's the source media)
I'm dragging QT movie files directly into iDVD
(have not had any problems)
Thanx
No information here - guess there are no iDVD render files
Thanx
Mike

Are there any libraries can be used to generate Type 1 font postscript file
I am trying to create a Type 1 font postscript file. But I found it is hard to find the library to generate the Type 1 font postscript file. I just found a library named iText which can create the Type 1 font PDF file.
Are there any libraries can be used to generate Type 1 font postscript file?
Thanks!I don't see much benefit with the current ODI adaptors for planning if it is an EPMA type planning application.
They have been specifically designed to work with classic planning applications.
It certainly is possible to load into EPMA interface tables using ODI though there are no direct adaptors and it takes quite a bit of effect to get them into the correct format.

Are there any command can list all container and XML doc which in DB
When I use BDB XML shell,
are there any command can list all container or xml document which in database,
maybe like command dir(in windows), can list all exist directory and file.
Thank very much.
Henry WangHi Henry,
When I use BDB XML shell,
are there any command can list all container or xml
document which in database,
maybe like command dir(in windows), can list all
exist directory and file.If you type "help" in the dbxml shell you'll get a list of all the commands available. As you will observe, you can use the "getDocuments" command to retrieve all the documents within a container. You will have to open the container first.
If you want to list all the files within a directory you'll need to simply use the command prompt's "dir" (naming all your containers within a directory in the <container_name.dbxml> would allow you get the list by running a "dir *.dbxml" command).
Not sure that this is what you really want, but if you would like to keep track of all the containers within a directory, or other directories, you can use a container with a special role, that of a catalogue, to hold the list of all created containers on disk, and eventually other specific information.

Hello. My mac can't connect to my time capsule. There is no response and I can't put it back to the originals definitions because all my files are there and I can´t loose them. (sorry about my bad english, but I really need help!)
Your files are unaffected by a reset.. no reset via the reset button on the TC harms, deletes or does anything to your files.
The Factory Reset universal
Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
Release reset.
If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Here is how to do a fully manual setup for TC which is sometimes necessary with Mavericks in particular.
Airport Utility shows "unexpected error - please try again" when connecting to Time Capsule -
Are there any cache you CANT delete? Invisible files!?!?!
My MBP is getting pretty full so i downloaded Whatsize to see where everythings at. i found a cache folder that was about a gig large, so i moved it to the trash. and then when i tried to empty the trash it said that a file was in use (one from the cache file) so i stopped, and did not delete it. Is there any caches you cant delete, something that will effect the performance of my computer? or is it ok to go ahead an delete and open up the space?
One other issue is when i ran Whatsize it located a file called "Private" with such things as "ver" "ect"" "temp" in it. it is pretty large. but i can find it anywhere on the hard drive. i even tried to spotlight it, but nothing of the such came up. i have no idea what it is. i kinda want to delete it, but im not going to if i dont know what it is. any help would be appreciated. thanksCaches which you can't delete should be kept in the cache folder. There are programs open all the time unless you boot into single user mode or connect to another Mac with target disk mode. I would not mess with the caches too much, as some are always being written to. Deleting a file which is being written to can cause data corruption.
Best to backup your data and only delete files from those folders which are safe which I've outlined:

My files are there but itunes can't 'see' them.
I recently relocated my itunes library using itunes own settings for where to put the ibrary, then running Conslidate.

The relevant file path information from both seems to be:

Both file paths are valid - both real files exist in the listed folder.
I SUPPOSE I can go through my entire 12,000+ track library searching for randomly lost media links within iTunes, then use the 10+ clicks it takes PER TRACK to tell iTunes where the file is. Even though the path in the XML look accurate.
Any ideas? And please don't tell me to dump my iTunes library itl and xml files and start from scratch. I have dozens of playlists, layers smart playlists, etc. I can't even imagine getting all that setup again.OK, here's what REALLY doesn't make sense.
After manually fixing a lost file, NOTHING in the XML changes. Not one single character changes in the XML file. I diff'd the whole file before and after - no difference. So, basically, it goes out and 'finds' it and updates something that we can't see to repair the connection, meanwhile we are left to think that this XML file has the library data in it.
Mind you, the media file(s) are present and accounted for in the file system - correct name and path and everything - before and after I go Locate the file when iTunes complains about it being missing..
iTunes is so overbloated, we can't even fix stuff when we see precisely how it is broken. -
Are there any PCIE CAN Cards Compatible with Labview RT?
Hi,
I am looking for a mini PCIE CAN card or PCIE 1X CAN card that will run under Labview RT. Are any of you using a PCIEC AN card with Labview RT?
Thanks,
PhillipHello Phillip,
I do not believe that we have any PCIe CAN cards. Here is a link to the PCI CAN cards that will work on LabVIEW Real Time(http://sine.ni.com/np/app/main/p/bot/no/ap/icomm/lang/en/pg/1/sn/n24CI,n21:17,n17:icomm,n19:Real%20T...). Please let me know if you have anymore questions. Have a great day!

When I click on Filed(in upper left hand corner of screen) a drop down box appears which includes several choices including Open File. When I click on Open File it shows many old downloads which I don't want or need to save. I can delete them individually but there are many many of them. Can someone give me guidance on how to deleter them all at one time. Thanks my friends.
hello cardavfl, i think in the open file dialog in the windows file picker you only can select one item at a time.
it would be better to look at the top of the file dialog ("look in:") where this folder is located on your harddrive & then use windows explorer & go to this path - then you can press ctrl+a to select all items at once (or use the mouse to select them all) and to delete them ... -
My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard. I erased and re-installed by putting the iMac in Target Disk mode and usin my MacBookPro as the host. But after numerous attempts I still can't get it to boot either from the HD or DVD drive. I just get the white screen after the wheel stops spinning. I can't get it to run Hardware Test - just get the white screen. If I use Disk Utility via my MBP it says the disk appears OK. All the Snow Leopad files appear to have been installed. What can I do?

Perhaps you installed the wrong version OS X onto the iMac, you can't use the disk from another Mac.
clean the disk.
If it's not working then use this method to create a bootable 10.6 USB from the iMac machine specific 10.6 disk or the 10.6.3 retail disk on your other Mac, use it to boot the iMac with.

Render Files Are Being Saved onto My Mac Book Hard Drive...?
Hi All -
So, I was highly curious as to why I have such little disk space on the hard drive on my Mac Book Pro and discovered that there is a file called "Render Files" on my hard drive which contains an enormous amount of video footage from movies I've edited in FCP.
I don't understand why these files are going into my hard drive...? I have an external My Book connected to my computer. In FCP under System Settings, on the Scratch Book tab, Video Capture, Video Render and Audio Render are all checked off and to the right of this my My Book is listed. So I thought everything would be going into my My Book external drive.
However, I looked into My Book and noticed that there is a file that says Capture Scratch that seems to have all of the captured footage of these movies. So, I'm thoroughly confused as to what this "Render Files" file is doing on my hard drive and how can I just get all video footage to automatically store on my external My Book drive. I'm afraid that if I delete the files in the "Render Files" that I'm going to create a real disaster.
Any advice or clarification on this would be most appreciated.
Thanks so much!Hi -
Couple of options for you to consider:
Open the Render Folder that you have found on your internal hard drive and sort the files by date. Are the files recent / from the current project that you are working on?
If they are then I would go to
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm
download Preference Manager and trash your preferences. This will cause you to lose your current preferences, favorites, etc., which you will have to manually reset - but often clears up strange behavior in FCP. I would then go back and reset my Scratch Disk settings to the external drive.
Is there at Render Files folder on your external drive? Open that and sort be date and see if your current project render files are there.
If they are, that would mean the render files you found on your internal drive are from projects prior to you assigning the files to your external drive.
Hope this helps.

nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?
Time Machine has been working just fine, but in the last week or two it has given up the ghost. I reset the connections to the drive, and it will basically save a few bytes of data and then hang.
Although Apple originally announced, prior to the release of the first 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBSn), that it would support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks, they removed that option before they did finally release the base station for sale.
Since then, Apple has posted (as you have noted) that they DO NOT support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks. As far as I know, they have not changed from that position and those who do these backups find that they become corrupted over time. Sorry, but it sounds like you just confirmed that for yourself.
1) Has one of the recent updates either on the AE (firmware) or OSX disabled this function?
No. Again, this feature has never been supported by Apple for every generation of AEBSn released.
2) Are there any changes I can make to get this working again?
If your data backups are critical to you, then you will want to use a different solution for your Time Machine backup destination drive strategy. I would suggest that you connect your WD My Book directly to your Mac in the mean time.
Your other options would be to either use a Time Capsule (which interestingly does support TM backups to AirPort Disks) or a non-Apple solution like the Drobo FS or HP MediaSmart server. -

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! At this time, QuickTime does not support the playback of .mkv files. For more information, see the following resource:

There are many a thousands of people who are producingvideos on completed DVDs. As an amateur videographer using iMovie first nowusing Final Cut pro to produce completed ready to distribute DVDs, I find ithard to believe at the meeting you mentioned anyone with common sense wouldhave explained the scenario above. On an amateur level so many folks have beencreating videos of Weddings, Home Movies, and many different Special Events. Onin particular are sports events. I shoot a sports event like Mix Martial ArtsEvents utilizing several video cameras. Then editing with Final cut Pro andsometimes iMovie. All of my completed videos that have been edited in either ofthese two programs are shared (like hand in glove) with iDVD. Short of steppinginto the commercial world Apple has deleted many people from producing a semiprofessional looking product.
I do not know if the can be answered here in the format buthere it goes!!
Simple question. Since apple has extinguished iDVD Are thereany other Software programs that can produce the end product iDVD did? Googlesearches with years of outdated info does not give good references. Withoutlooking to go commercial, the Apple Macintosh Computers built internal Softwareprogram like iDVD is the only program I know of that can help folks on mylevel!!
It doesn't seem there are any programs that takes off fromwhere iDVD left off. My end products (complete videography from start tofinished printed and burned DVD) needs to have the mapping and control usingthe semi professional look iDVD gave!
Have any ssuggestions?Thank you Klaus 1
I have 4 latest Macs All have iDVD. The question was not where to get iDVD.
The question for anyone who knows is: Since apple has extinguished iDVD Are there any other Software programs that can produce the end product iDVD did?
I appreciate your input but it realy does not answer the question. iDVD will soon not be able to work with newer versions of Macs as it has been left behind by Apple!
Once again:
It doesn't seem there are any programs that takes off from where iDVD left off.

Imovie cannot do this. More importantly imovie cannot save the project to Video_TS folders like iDVD did.

Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?
I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility? That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says. Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation.
