Local File Storage

Hi,
I was wondering where iCloud files were stored on iOS devices. like pages, numbers, and so on. Also are the files accessible to other apps?
Just trying to see if my app idea is possible.
Thanks,
Tin

i believe that you can write a text file in php and store it
to a directory - i would look into these methods (php) I also do
not see anything in the code above that is linking to any php doc -
so I do not quite fully understand what you trying to do here.
what do you mean by 'locally'? however, depending on the
length of the text, it may be possible to 'store' the text on the
users disk using a Flash SharedObject.

Cloud Versus Local file storage

I ahve seen little specific discussion about file storage. I know there is 2GB free but I assume that if I switch from CS6 and LR4 to the CC I can continue to store everything locally?

Yes, no different to normal.
Cloud software works the same as Creative Suites. Software installs locally, runs locally and files are saved locally. Only the Cloud license itself is Cloud based.
Storing files in the Cloud as a Cloud member is a free optional extra.

Local file storage in flash

Hi folks,
I have a php form on my interactive game (it is offline). The
users are supposed to create their own stories and submit them
using the form. The question is, how do I store them and where? I
don't need them to be e-mailed or anything, just stored locally.
What would be the easiest way?
here is my code:

My home network has an Airport Extreme w/Time Capsule as the base and then an Airport Express and a second Airport Extreme to reach different areas of the house. Is there a way to use the second Airport Extreme for file storage on this network?

My home network has an Airport Extreme w/Time Capsule as the base and then an Airport Express and a second Airport Extreme to reach different areas of the house. Is there a way to use the second Airport Extreme for file storage on this network? Network is administered through an iMac running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. Ideally, would like for the second Airport Extreme hard drive to appear on the list of devices in the Finder window.

Ok.. gottcha
The problem is network wise.. Yosemite is about equal to tin cans and string.. pathetic.
Here is my usual set of instructions to get anything working on Yosemite.
The best way to fix problems is a full factory reset of all the AE in the network.
Factory reset universal
Power off the AE.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the AE to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
eg AEgen5 and AEwifi for basestation and wireless respectively.
Even better if the issue is more wireless use AE24ghz and AE5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense.
2. Use all passwords that also comply but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
3. Ensure the AE always takes the same IP address.. this is not a problem for AE which is router.. it is a problem for AE which is bridged.. you will need to set static IP in the main router by dhcp reservations or use static IP in the AE which is tricky.
4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric..
5. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only.
6. Now mount the disk of the second AE in finder... manually.
Use Go, Connect to Server and type in the AE ip address.
SMB://10.0.1.2
Where you will replace that address with the actual address. The network resource should be discovered and then it will request the password.. type that in and make sure you tick to save it in your keychain.
There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.
Do as much as you want of the above... not all of it is necessary.. only if you want it reliable.. or as reliable as Yosemite in its current incarnation can manage.
The most important thing is point 6.. mount the disk using direct IP address and not names.. dns in Yosemite is fatally flawed.

Dmp 4400 can't play local files

I am using a DMP-4400 with firmware v.5.2.2. The unit connects to the network fine and is able to display webpages from the internet without problem; the ftp server is working fine also. However, when I attempt to play any type of local file ( located at /tmp/ftproot/usb_1/) the screen remains blank. I am assuming that the files are being found because the failover URL is not being displayed for either .mpg or .html files. I am using MPEG-1 type video files for testing. I have attached one of these videos along with a sample .html file I am planning to use to loop multiple files.
Video files are being run using:
"/tmp/ftproot/usb_1/melt.mpg" entered into the 'Local Storage Path' dialog under 'Play Video File Stored Locally' within the GUI.
HTML is being launched using:
"file:///tmp/ftproot/usb_1/play-local-mpg.html" entered into the 'URL' dialog under 'URL To Be Displayed' within the GUI.
These problems persist whether the files are located on internal memory or external USB drive. Any help will be much appreciated.

Peter,
I was able to fix it, The issue seems to be with the content, I transcoded it with VLC Player to MPEG-TS and it works. Kindly find the attached transcoded file.
Use
var playlist = new Array(
"file:///tmp/ftproot/usb_1/test1.ts"
If this answers your concerns please mark this post as "Answered"

Local file system for archive destination in RAC with ASM

hi Gurus .
I need an info.
I have ASM file system in 2 node RAC.
The client does not want to use flash recovery area.
Can we use the archive destination as local file system rather than ASM.
like /xyzlog1 for archvies coming from node 1 and /xyzlog2 for archive logs coming from node 2.
Imortant thing is these two destinations are anot shared with each nodes.
OS is solaris sparc 10.
version is 10.2.0.2

There is huge space in the storage.
Pls tell me in general ho wdo you do this.
Do we take and one disk from the storage and format it with local file system and share it among the 2 nodes?
If so then that mount point will have same mount point name if we see it from other node... ..ryt
In this scenario if one instance is down then from the same shared mount point which is on the same node(down) can apply archves?Here, Earlier you are using any ASM shared location for ARCHIVES ?
if so you can add a CANDIDATE disk to your existing ARHCIVE disk group(shared).
if not from LUN's after format, I.e. candidates based on that you can create a new DISK group(shared) according to your space requirements. THen you can assign to log_archive_dest_1 for both the nodes to single shared location(disk group)

ORA-00245: control file backup failed; target is likely on a local file sys

Hello,
our RAC (Linux, 11.2.0.3.0) is rather new and we are still on gaining experiences with that system...
When starting the backup with RMAN we are getting the following error:
Starting Control File and SPFILE Autobackup at 04-JUL-12
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03009: failure of Control File and SPFILE Autobackup command on ORA_DISK_1 channel at 07/04/2012 16:41:48
ORA-00245: control file backup failed; target is likely on a local file system
The reason for the error is clear ORA-00245 - in a RAC environment the location of the Snapshot Controlfile must be on a shared location.
When executing the RMAN command "show all" on each node, we are getting
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db/dbs/snapcf_PROD021.f'; # default
for node #1
and
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db/dbs/snapcf_PROD022.f'; # default
for node #2
When using a shared location for the Snapshot Controlfile do we still need to setup 2 different names for that file?
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/<shared location>/snapcf_PROD021.f'; # default
for node #1 and
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO '/<shared location>/snapcf_PROD022.f'; # default
for node #2
Or should we configure just one Snapshot Controlfile?
The RMAN setup for "CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO..." must be changed on both nodes - correct?
Hopefully my question is clear enough - any help will be appreciated.

No, it must be configured on a shared storage:Not really required, i've RAC setup and snapshot is configured on local storage.
Configuring the RMAN Snapshot Control File Location
The snapshot control file is a copy of a database control file created in an operating system-specific location by Recovery Manager. RMAN creates the snapshot control file so that it has a consistent version of a control file to use when either resynchronizing the recovery catalog or backing up the control file. In Oracle RAC, the snapshot control file is only needed on the nodes on which RMAN performs backups; the snapshot control file does not need to be globally available to all instances in an Oracle RAC environment.
See below from doc.

Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad. Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad. Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad. If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad. Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space. The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

If I delete a file in iCloud, what happens to the local file in ~/Library/Mobile Documents ?

If I delete a file in iCloud, what happens to the local file in ~/Library/Mobile Documents ? Does it get deleted to?
Hope somebody can help.
Thx.

I'm pretty certain that it gets deleted as well. If you try and open that mobile documents folder, it takes you to the iCloud drive folder. I've been searching for this same issue for the last 24 hours also as I inadvertently deleted my Keynote files stored on iCloud drive thinking I was just temporarily deleting Keynote from my iPad when upgrading to the latest iOS 8 version. (I needed space and thought, "Oh, I'll just reinstall later... Turns out I was in the iCloud storage area, not in my iPad storage area at the time and therefore deleted all my iCloud stored presentations. From every device.)

Signed applet to open local file problem with IE6 / Firefox

Hello
I have a signed applet to open a local file, with this code :
try{
   URL destination=null;
   File f=new File(adresse);
   destination=f.toURL();
   AppletContext ac=applet.getAppletContext();
   ac.showDocument(destination,"_blank");
catch (MalformedURLException e)
   System.out.println(e.toString());
...It works perfectly with Netscape 7.01 and IE 5.5, but not with IE6.0 or Firefox 1.0...
(using SUN JVM 1.4.2_04), and there is no trace/error message
With a http link, it works for all browsers...
try{
   URL destination=new URL("http://my.site/mypage.htm");
   AppletContext ac=applet.getAppletContext();
   ac.showDocument(destination,"_blank");
catch (MalformedURLException e)
   System.out.println(e.toString());
...Any idea ??

What happens to my local files once I activate iCloud?

Does my HD automatically delete everything and free up space? Before I turn on iCloud services and put my entire music and photo library 'up there' I want to understand what happens locally. I want to free up some HD space, but I'd like to keep a copy of everything locally on storage media. Do I need to do that first? Or do I need to manually clean up my HD once my content is pushed up to the cloud?

Does my HD automatically delete everything and free up space? Before I turn on iCloud services and put my entire music and photo library 'up there' I want to understand what happens locally.
What will happen:
When you move a file from your internal drive to iCloud Drive, it will really be moved. Deleted from the internal drive and stored in iCloud.
But once the file has been uploaded, the Mac will download a shadow copy of the file from iCloud, and this file will be stored locally on your Mac in your user library and also be included in your Time Machine backups. There is a short interval, where you neither can access the file in iCloud nor on your Mac. It is safer to copy to iCloud and not to move. Once you are sure, the document can be accessed in iCloud and uploaded successfully, you can delete the original. But because of the shadow copies you cannot save any space on your Mac using iCloud Drive.
Document types you can store on iCloud Drive:
Basically, you can store any type of document on iCloud Drive, as long as it is smaller than 15GB.
But for Music, it would be easier to use iTunes Match. This will sync your iTunes library between devices. And other than iCloud Drive, you can store the entire music library in iTunes Match and save space on your mac.
For photos, iCloud Drive is not optimal. You can store folders with photos, but they will not show up on your mobile devices in the Photos.app. And you cannot store your iPhoto Library or Aperture Library on iCloud Drive. Photo libraries need to be stored on a locally mounted drive. Shared volumes and cloud storage are not supported by iPhoto or Aperture.
Apple is developing iCloud Photo Library (Beta). See this link: iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ
This library is already available on mobile iOS8 devices, but not yet on the Mac. It is supposed to be supported later this year, when Apple releases a Photos.app for the Mac. Until then, you can only access this photo library using the web interface at https://www.icloud.com/ using the Photos(Beta) app on that page.

Using Adobe file storage

When using the adobe file storage, can you open a file directly from adobe or do you have to download it first on to your computer to open it?

You cannot open the stored file directly. You will need to download the file locally to the computer if you want to open it.

Publishing iweb in file storage and sharing service?

I am not very versed in creating webpages. I need to upload the iweb website that I made to my school's "file storage and sharing service" otherwise known as CITES Netfiles. I know that somehow I upload my iweb html files SOMEWHERE on this thing and it will show up as my website but i cant seem to figure it out and the the "help" on the phone cant seem to waste their time trying to help me understand. if anybody has any experience with this i would appreciate your help! thanks!

Welcome to the Forum!
Only the people who setup the Netfiles system will know exactly where you are supposed to upload your files, and also, what your URL is.
I found this support page for the University of Illinois system. You may be using it since you are from Ill. or maybe the page will help you understand the information your tech support people are telling you:
http://www.cites.illinois.edu/netfiles/web-publish.html
I checked the linked page about how to upload files to the system, and it's a little out of the ordinary. Netfiles appears to use a browser based "Upload Manager" as it's "Front End". http://www.cites.illinois.edu/netfiles/manage.html#upload
Netfiles does appear to support WebDAV (but not FTP)
http://www.cites.illinois.edu/netfiles/desktop.html
So you would have to tell iWeb to publish your site to a local folder, then use a program like "CyberDuck", "Transmit" or a program named "Goliath" to upload the site folder that's inside the folder that iWeb created. Special features like blogs and RSS feeds will probably not work with a server like this, although there are ways to link other blog services to your site.
Programs like Dreamweaver support uploading directly to a WebDAV server, but iWeb does not make those settings available, yet.

QM Recording File Storage Location

I am working on my first QM installation and am a little confused as to what to enter in the Recording File Storage location on the Configuration Setup. This was ordered and planned as a 2 server installation - a base Server and a Recording server. I am running through the Configuration Setup on the Base server and am at the point where I have to define either a Local or External Storage location. So, should this location be a location on the seperate Recording server?

Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
You cannot move the Library to a server of any kind.
See this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5168
for more. Note the comment:
“Additionally, storing the iPhoto library on a network rather than locally on your computer can also lead to poor performance or data loss.”

Am I required to save files to the Creative Cloud, or may I use a local file server?

Am I required to save files to the Creative Cloud, or may I use a local file server for in-office sharing?

You are not required to save files to the Creative Cloud.
The online file storage is merely and an additional service, but there are several benefits:
You file is backed up online in case the file is accidently deleted locally or your hard drive crashes.
Image previews of InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop files in the web browser for someone who does not have these programs and would otherwise be unable to view the file.
Share the file with someone else allowing them to comment and download.
