Is there a way to find where you imported files from?

I imported a batch of photos from a wedding. Edited them all, and then I moved the original files from their native folder. This created the "This file is offline or missing" dialogue. I tried moving the files back but with no luck. I think I just forgot where they were originally at.
So, my question is, is there was a way to find out which folder you imported the files from so I can put them back in place and export them without losing a weeks worth of edits?
Thanks,
Cody

If you left click on the question mark it will throw up a dialogue (a) advising you that the file is missing (b) show you the last location it was located and (c) offer you the option of pointing LR in the direction of where the image can be found. Often, when LR is given the new location for one image it manages to do the rest.
The alternative is to right-click on the top level folder in the libraries left hand panel and choose 'locate folder'. Again, once the top level folder has been located LR usually updates the sub folders.
When moving folders etc around it is better to do this from within LR itself therebye preventing these sort of problems.

Is there any way to recover photos you have deleted from iphoto trash?????

Is there any way to recover photos you have deleted from iphoto trash;ie emptied trash..

Depends on the version of iPhoto - some details would help us help you
If you have iPhoto '11 then the photos go from the iPhoto trash to the system trash and you can recover them there and import backinto iPhoto
Otherwise you you are looking at data recovery software like file salvage http://subrosasoft.com/software/filesalvage or a data recovery service

Is there a way to transfer word/pdf/exe files from my pc to iphone?

I've got a couple of books in my pc and are in word and exe format, is there anyway that I could transfer them to my iphone?
Thanks in advance ^^*

I use an app called Folders. It allows you to create folders and sub folders and works pretty much like a "my documents" folder. You can transfer and view word. excel, powerpoint, pdf, video and photo files from your pc via wifi. You can also create and manage the folders on your pc while connected.
One conneted it just sees your iphone folders in a window and you can drag and drop.
There's a free version and a paid version, the paid version lets you email files from your phone.
You can also lock and hide folders, such as sensitive documents pictures and videos.
All in all it's one of the most useful apps I've got as I've tried a few others and this seems to be far the easiest to use.

Is there a way to find out ALL the files an FCP project uses?

Okay. Firstly, I'm an idiot. I don't know why, but at the START of the project, I didn't think I'd end up with so many little tiny bits and pieces... so I didn't really plan the organization of this thing. (My next project will be meticulously organized, I can assure you.)
But, here I am, and here's my problem.
I've got a pretty big project I've been working on for six months that's probably taking up 250 GB of space on my computer (spread over two 350 GB hard drives). It includes 125 GB of source footage, hundreds of little Motion projects (including various "drafts" of each one), PSD images, LiveType files, an assortment of Soundtrack Pro files, AIFFs, exported clips from all the various cuts of the project, etc etc etc. Stupidly, I always saved things in different folders, using a system and thought process that "seemed like a good idea at the time".
Problem is, now that I'm (nearly) finished with the thing, I need to archive the "final cut", and all it's many source files (such as Motion projects, which may need to be edited later if this project gets sold into foreign markets, etc).
Suddenly, I realize how important Organizational Skills really are.
But is there a way (simple or not-so-simple) to find out EVERY SINGLE FILE that's referenced on a timeline? (I have lots of stuff imported into the project that I know isn't used on any timeline, but I'm afraid of moving or deleting things for fear of never finding it again.)
I'd love to get some sort of "printout" (a list or something) of every single file.
The idea is, I would then move ONLY those files to a newly-organized filing system, which could be easily archived/backed-up. It would also be great to keep the RENDER files, too, so that I won't have to re-render everything when I pull it out of cold storage.
Am I dreaming an impossible dream?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

There is, go to browser and cntrl click on any one of the columns,
and select - show/source. A new column named "source" will pop up and will show where everything "lives". Click on the header at the top and it will justify the column as well. You'll notice this won't show anything for your seq.'s. of course, but will show stills/audio/motion files...
Once you have the new column, you can drag it next to the "name" column and get a grab of it and print it if you like, or whatever.
If you want to do this for just 1 seq., then can create a new bin and double click it to open it. Cntrl-A (select all) in your main seq. and just drag all into the new bin. You will see only what's in that seq. with the "source" column right next to it.
From what I've read, you seem to get the MM thing and it's obviously what you'll need to do to archive as the guys said. But what your missing is a file path system to where everything resides.
Hope this helps and that I've read you properly,

Is there a way to find all the locked files my computer?

I am having trouble importing some files into Aperture and I discovered that one of the reasons might be that some of the files are locked. I know how to unlock them but I'd like to find the locked files and unlock them all at once. Is there a way to do that?

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Is there a way to automatically collect the log files from a AirPort or TimeCapsule base station?

Hi there,
the headline says basically all: Is there a way to collect the log files from a Time Capsule 7 AirPort from time to time? They are overwritten quite soon but I want a complete log of all activities to my access point.
The AirPort Utility says something about SNMP. Is this the way to go? Some kind of demon on my Mac that retrieves and saves the logs like every two days?
I want to copy the access logs, I am not interested in Time Machine backup logs.
Thanks.

There is a way to do this via Syslog. On the Logging & Statistics panel (within the AirPort Utility), you can point the AirPort's system logs to a Syslog "server."
This would require a "dedicated" network client to receive the logs.
Unfortunately, setting up a Syslog server is a bit intensive initially, but is simple to operate and maintain.
Please check out this Apple Support Communities thread: Directing Syslog message to a file

Is there a way to find out what each file in core does?

I would like to know if there is a way to know what the packages in [core] does (i.e., even during install)? If I re-install, I only want to install the packages that I need. There are some packages that I understand from experience, such as Wifi for wireless and some from experience from other Linux distros as well, but there are other particulars I don't know about. TIA

run pacman -Qi pkgname for each package you want to learn about. The Description at the bottom should give you enough information for your purposes. You can also see if its required by anything else that's installed.
You could, of course, write a script that does this for all files in [core], snips out the descriptions, and cats them to a file.

Is there a way to find old ( iPhone) back ups from iTunes

where are they stored (mac)

You're welcome.
FYI:
iTunes only keeps ONE normal backup, per device. It's actually an incremental backup, in that only data that has changed is actually backed up. Any other backups listed would be backups from restore points. These backups are time/date stamped and are not overwritten.

Is there any way in Finder to search for files and display their path to make it easier to move a file type to one folder without generation duplicates

Trying to consolidate all media files (mp3, m4a) into one folder for iTuned. Each time to try to move files I end up with duplicates and copies. If I could see the path (folder) in finder I could only move groups. searching for all mp3 file finds all on the iMac regardless of location. I don't want to them one by one having checked the Get Info display.
Any help, suggestions appreciated.

This puts the path in the title bar.
http://osxdaily.com/2007/12/02/show-full-directory-path-in-finder-window-title-b ars/
I also have the path showing at the bottom of a finder window: View>Show Path Bar. This seems to show the path more competely
Also, get FindAnyFile.

Is there any way to automate converting just sln files from VS2008 to VS2013 ?

My general problem is that we have a large number (approaching 300) of "local" sln files that have not been converted from VS2008 to VS2013 although their underlying vcproj files have (so they are now really vcxproj / vcxproj.filters pairs).
This happened because these projects were converted along with "global" sln files that also contain these projects and are in fact used to build product. The "local" sln files are more geared toward development, so the idea has
been to upgrade them over time as they need to be worked with in VS, which is still an option. It should also be noted that these "local" upgrades must be done so that they do not redo the vcxproj files in any way or needed adaptations get
zapped and must be redone by hand.
So ... does anyone have a suggestion how to automate the conversion of these remaining sln files
without affecting the connected proj files? devenv /upgrade does not seem to have the ability to leave the proj files alone unless I am misreading.

Hi A Jarrett,
Thanks for your reply.
I sugegst you will need to check if if
these files can be created in VS2013.
Since the VS2008 is really old version, and generally we open an old project with the closed VS version, for example, I sugegst you could check whether you could open all files in VS2010, and then test it with VS2013.
In addition, I suggest you can try to open the your project solution using File | Open Project... and then pass the path to the solution project file check this issue again.
I find a similar thread about how to convert project from old version VS to VS2013, you can try the jsck's suggestion to check your issue.

Is there a way to have all/ the important files shared on two mac computers without a service like dropbox?

I was looking to get a Mac Mini to use with my Cinema Display so I had something of a desktop computing station. I am concerned though of the ability to have all or at least my word documents, power points, etc., graphic projects, my pdfs, and my non iphoto images transfering between computers. I currently have a macbook air running 10.8.4 and plan to upgrade to Maverics when it comes out. I DO NOT want to use a service like Dropbox. I would much rather prefer a smooth and automatic transfer of the files without any steps to transfer. Please let me know if AND HOW this is possible.

Simple file sharing SHOULD do this on the local network as BDAqua points out. If you want to physcially move files without having to go through uploading and downloading via Dropbox, use FileDrop. It's free and files go directly to the receiving computer through your LAN - in ONE step.

I am switching computers. Is there a way to copy the mozilla program file from my old computer and "install" it on my new computer? Or do I need to redo the complette install?

I have a new computer. Can I copy the mozilla program folder from my old computer to the new or do I need to do anew install from the website? I do know that I can transfer bookmarks and such but what about the entire program?

Is there any way to recover the iTunes Library file from the iPod Touch to preserve metadata like Date Added?

Topic.
I used software (SharePod) to retrieve music from my iPod Touch after my original harddrive failed, but the program does not retrieve the iTunes Library file needed to import the metadata into iTunes (though it shows in the program itself). The music backed up with no issue, but I don't have what I need to preserve things like Date Added, Play Count, etc. Any solution if I have only the physical iPod Touch?
