Library Gets Deleted After I Import it

Everytime I open my iTunes, my library is blank. I import all of my music, but once I close iTunes, the next time I reopen it my library has been deleted. It seems as if the library folder is automatically being moved to my recycle bin. How can I fix this?
Thanks

... Eset's Nod32 or Smart Security (especially in conjunction with a "the library cannot be saved" message when closing iTunes) ...
Possibly Kaspersky too, Katrina ...
I haven't quite seen a blanked library file with Kaspersky yet ... but have found at least one case recently of it mucking around with library files in a crash-inducing sort of way:

(A bit nasty the way it can "fake" a user account specific issue. It makes sense, but doesn't help with the diagnoses.)

Library gets deleted after I close itunes

Hello,
For some reason my library gets deleted after closing itunes. When I re-open itunes i can watch my recycle bin get filled up with my library its an .xml file. If I hit restore it does nothing!!! This is getting very annoying, and the geniuses at itunes blame windows (couldn't tell me why) and the sony store (where I got my computer) blames itunes! Also I get a ton of .tmp file in my itunes folder while I use itunes, and they don't delete.

Anyone!!!!

Photos don't get deleted after iphoto import, help

I posted this in the iphoto forums but got not answers....
photos remain on my iphone after have imported them into iphoto and selected 'delete originals' after import
anyone know a fix?
thanks!

me too!
Here is my setup and my steps.
I am running iTunes v9.0.1 and iPhoto '09 v8.1 and Mac OS X 10.6.1 and a first generation iPhone.
STEPS I TOOK
1. I plug in my iPhone and iPhoto Launches (as expected)
2. I see my iPhone in iPhoto under devices and it's selected
3. I click on Import All…
3a If I tick "Hide photos already imported" on, iPhoto does understand that the Photos have already been imported.
4. I click on the Import All button and tick "Apply to all duplicates" and choose Don't Import so that I don't end up with duplicates
5. After all my photos have been imported a window comes up with the message, "Delete Photos on Your Camera?" — I click on Delete Photos
6. The photos remain on my iPhone. (Arghh!)
I have tried to tell iTunes to "Sync photos from" and chose a small album in the hopes that this would trigger something but it only adds the small album and keeps the photos that are still on my phone that I wish to remove.
Has anyone found any further information on this issue?
I tried some other things.
-I started up iPhoto while holding down the alt key and created a new Library to isolate my library
-I created a new library
-I chose to import
-When prompted I chose to delete the photos from my iPhone
THIS WORKED! (finally)
OK, something interesting happened this time. On my iPhone, my Photo Album contains a Camera Roll (1) (in brackets there is a one, indicating one photo and next to 'Camera Roll' there is a preview of the last photo I took with the camera. It is not literally the last photo I took with the camera, in fact it is the last photo I took before updating my iPhone - I have updated my iphone twice since that photo was taken. Anyway I click on that photo and I get a blank library on my iphone. Not sure if the preview thumbnail should be there but now my iPhone is blank.
Next I quit iPhoto.
I relaunched iPhoto (with alt being held down so I can choose my main library - just to be sure of things)
Now that I have all the photos off my iPhone I am happy but this deserves more testing just to be sure this isn't a sticky issue.
Does anyone else have any other ideas on this issue?
PS I had already tried a restore and restarted my iPhone to no avail.
Thanks

Sound on clips gets deleted after quiting FCP X, why?

Sound on some clips I imported from my GoPro gets deleted after I have quit the program and go back to it. However, in the FCP X events folder, the original media still has the sound in the clip. I do not understand why this is happening.
Does anybody have any advice?

One slight point about Patrick's info.
Since version 10.0.3, FCP X has been able to edit multicam and most people agree that it does so in a far superior and easy way.
I would also suggest that as a beginner you completely ignore the "Help" menu as it can be very confusing.
Instead download these 2 hours of FREE video tutorials and you will see and learn exactly how to use FCP X in no time at all:-
http://www.izzyvideo.com/final-cut-pro-x-tutorial/
Finally do not spend a penny on FCP X until you are sure it is right for you.
You can achieve this by downloading the FREE 30 DAY TRIAL:-
http://www.apple.com/finalcutpro/trial/
So within 30 minutes of reading this post you could have FCP X sitting on your desktop and be starting to edit with it . . . and all without spending a penny!
P.S. If you already have FCP 7 & and it does what you want, you should stick with it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

All the photos dowloaded to the photo stream in my mac, will it be saved forever or does it get deleted after reaching 1000 limit ?

Photo stream photos will be deleted once you reach 1,000 unless you import them into iPhoto. You can set your iPhoto preferences to import them automatically.

When I sync my iPad to download new pictures to my library, my existing library gets deleted. How can I stop this from happening?

When I sync my iPad to download new pictures to my library, my existing library gets deleted. How can I stop this from happening?

The way I sync mine is to have an 'master' folder on my computer, and underneath it I have separate folders for the photos that I want to sync to the iPad - I then select the master folder in iTunes and the folders underneath it are synced to the iPad, each getting their own album.
There is some info on syncing folders on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

Calendar items get deleted after computer restart

Hi, I keep having this problem of my calendar items getting deleted/cleared after I restart my computer. Basically, I sync my handheld on two computers, one is work PC and the other my home PC. Changes are done on both PCs. I modify items on my work PC then sync with the handheld. When I get home, mostly during weekends, I also sync my handheld with my home PC. No modifications are done on the handheld. These past few days, I just noticed my calendar items in the Palm Desktop that the items I added/modified a day ago is no longer there. I have already lost a couple of appointments because of this. Please help.

With Palm desktop 6.2 there is an issue with losing data but it is mostly seen on Vista systems. This issue has been escalated to Palm Engineering.
When you shutdown your PC, do you close Palm desktop or leave it open? We have seen leaving Palm desktop open, when the PC is shut down, to cause data loss. Another cause of data loss can happen by having Palm desktop open when a Windows update occurs. If you are not using Palm desktop, close it.
Here is a procedure for recovering the data.
You can recover the data from your user folder provided you have only sync'ed once with the PC when you discovered the data missing. When you sync to the PC there are files created for each PIM category in your user folder. For Example; datebook.dat or datebook (Depending on the version of Palm Desktop) and datebook.bak. Using Palm Desktop version 6.2 the file names are .mdb and mdb.bak. For 6.2, the files are located in the username folder in PalmOSdesktop in my documents.
The files are named .dat and .bak. When you sync, the current data is stored in .dat. The next time you sync the data in the .dat file is copied to the .bak file. You can rename the .dat to .old. then rename the .bak to .dat. If the data in the .bak file is intact, it will now be in Palm desktop when you reopen Palm desktop. I have included a link to show you how to find the userfolder on the PC.
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=26674
Here is another link regarding data loss;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=39503
The best way to backup your data is to use the export feature in Palm Desktop. Make a new folder on the PC desktop named Palm Desktop Backup data. Next, select the category you want to export. You will get a window that asks where you want to save the file, save in the folder created on the desktop. There is a button that allows you to select currently selected record or all, select all. If you don't select all, then only the record highlighted is exported. You will then need to name the file for export, I suggest the name of the category, eg: datebook (With current date). Do this for all critical data in each category. With the data exported to the folder on the PC desktop, you can save this data to a flash drive, external hard drive or a CD-RW. With this method you will have your data in a seperate place than Palm desktop and the device. If you "Lose" data again, you can import the data back into palm desktop.
Make sure that when you make changes in palm desktop or the device to export the data to the folder created for the backup.
Here is a link for other options for backing up your data;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28751
Here is a procedure for backing up your data for disaster recovery, like this situation.
The best way to preserve your data is to export the data in each category in Palm Desktop to a seperate folder on your PC.
Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that is convenient. Name it something like Palm Desktop Data. Click on the link below and follow the instructions on that page for the export procedure.
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28734
Make sure you select all for the range in the export window.
With the data saved in the folder you created, make a copy of that folder and save to a flash drive, cd-rw or external hard drive.
Anytime you make a change in Palm Desktop, export the data that was changed to that folder and save again to the external media.
With this process you can always import the data back into Palm Desktop anytime you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop or if your computer/hard drive/device crashes.

Open TRs not getting deleted after TECO production order

Hi,
We're having an issue. We're using WMPP interface to supply the production line for the production orders. The auto TRs are generated when the production orders are released.
After TECO the production orders, the open TRs are not getting deleted automatically.
Could anyone know if these TRs get deleted automatically when we do the TECO production order?
If yes, do we have any restriction or condition based on this, the TRs get deleted?
Please explain.
Thank you.
with regards,
Muthu.

Hi Abhijit,
Thank you for your reply. It does not help me.
The auto TR creation is happening now as required. No issue on this.
When you do the TECO, it also cancels the TRs. I tested this also.
There're some scenario this open TRs cancellation is not happening. I do not know when these open TRs are not cancelled. If you know answer for this, please let me know.
Thank you for your help and time.
with regards,
Muthu.

Pagefile gets deleted after reboot

I have moved the pagefile to another partition and left a small piece on the system drive:
C: (Windows) 200-500 MB
B: (Temp) 4000-16000 MB
When I set the pagefile size, the pagefile gets created immediately, but after reboot it gets deleted again and remains only on the system drive. So after reboot, there is only 200 MB pagefile, not 4200 MB. And the total available memory is only a little
bigger than the amount of RAM, not 16 GB as it should be.
What is wrong? Am I missing something?
I have Win7 Pro SP1 x64, and a lot of free space on B:. Both partitions are on the same SSD disk.

Hi Xars
Thanks for your digging and we found similar cases with yours,so I tested on my own machine and turns out it is actually related to the Drive letter. Since The letters A and B are usually reserved for floppy disk drives, it's not recommended to
assign A and B to anything other than a floppy or floppy substitute even you do not have a floppy disk drive installed. I suppose Windows might not let you if you do this thinking "putting a pagefile on a floppy disk!"
We found sort of workaround for you but it still takes a lot of works, and it even need to reformat you hard disk.
Therefore, we recommend changing driving letter and we think it is the best way to avoid this kind of issue.
About Change, add, or remove a drive letter(Windows vista and 7 )

You could refer to similar case “Pagefile on a volume that uses "A" or "B" as the drive letter”

Po getting deleted after goods receipt and invoice verificatiob done.

Dear all,
PO is geeting deleted after GRN and IR has been done. it should not happen.
PO is not getting deleted whn SES is made and release and giving standard error.
but PO is geeting deleted after GRN and IR has been done. it should not happen.
please help in this case.
thanks.

Hi,
That's correct, System is working as designed.
When all the procurement process is finished, it must be possible to delete the PO item for example for archiving purpose .
You can see the on-line help on that matter:
You cancel items in a purchase order by deleting them.
Please note that an item may only be deleted if it is closed (that is
to say , there is no outstanding quantity to be delivered or invoiced).
Items are regarded as closed if, for example:
· the ordered quantity (or more) has already been delivered
· the ordered quantity has been invoiced in full
· no related follow-on processes (such as reservations) are active
in the stystem."
As you have already received the goods and posted the invoice, the deletion of the item shall have no effect. The procurement process has been completed.
If however you try to delete the item after GR but before invoice receipt, the procurement process is not complete, therefore the error occurs.
Also note the item shall be marked as deleted, but not actually removed from the System, it shall still be available for reporting.
I hope this is answering your question.
Regards,
Mauro

Will all my iPhoto library get deleted if I buy iPhoto from a new ID?

Hello,
I have iPhoto on my MacBook Air. It seems to be somehow there from both my dad's and my ID, or sometimes just my dad's. I don't know how that's even possible, it's really confusing. Anyhow, I just want to delete it and get it only from my ID. The problem is that I'm worried that if I delete iPhoto, all my photos saved in the iPhoto library from Photo Stream etc. will get deleted. I can't even find the folder where iPhoto saves all the images, so I can copy that folder and create a back up. Please suggest a solution, and please let me know the location of the iPhoto Library folder. Also, how do I find out which application is from which Apple ID?
Thanks!

iPhoto saves all your photos in the iPhoto Library, normally in your Pictures Folder.
Reinstalling the app, regardless of the ID associated with it, will not affect this.
But always, always have an up-to-date back up.
