Location of files that i add to project

When I add a file from the media browser into the project/ resource central are the video clips I add moved?
Example: My video files are on my external harddrive and my project is saved on my local hard drive.  If I add video clips from my external hd to the project that is saved on my local hd will the videos be moved to my local hd?  If I remove the external hd will the video clips still show up in my project?
Thanks

Working FROM the DVD will be a horribly slow process, and that DVD will always need to be in the drive, when you edit.
Instead, I would suggest that you Copy over your Assets to the drive with the Project. I create a folder structure, with my Project as the "root folder," and then below that, I have my Videos, Music, Audio, Stills, etc. These folder contain Copies of my Assets, which remain untouched on my NAS.
As for the Project file, itself, this ARTICLE might be useful to understand what it really is.
Good luck, and hope that helps,

  • How can I make an ant file that launches an AS project app in a debug flash player that traces to the flex console?

    How can I make an ant file that launches an AS project app in a debug flash player that traces to the flex console?
    Basically I like the control over the compiling process that I get by using Ant - but I really want traces to come up immediately without having to switch contexts.
    I have an ant file that successfully launches a swf in the flashplayer - but I don't know how to make the flex console start displaying the trace output. I assume that I will have to point it to the appropriate trace output file - but I am not sure how to have ant even address the console.  Is this possible?
    Here is the the target node from my ANT file:
        <target name="launch">
            <exec executable="${FLASHPLAYER_EXE}" errorproperty="trace.output">
                <arg line="'${DEPLOY_DIR}\test.swf'" />
            </exec>
        </target>
    Thanks for any thoughts, or alternatives!

    For the record, I ended up using Logwatcher - it worked perfectly.

  • How to go to the location of file that I received ...

    How to go to the location of file that I received on skype? I was able to do it easily in old version. 
    Now, I recieved the zip file. If I click on the file, it shows the Zip File View. I don't know where that file is downloaded. (of cuz, need to dip where I set the download path.) In old version of Skype, there is a link where we can open the file in windows explorere.
    I would suggest that the Skype UX or development team needs to read "Don't make me think" short book. 
    Update: There are other people who reported the issues in 2013 http://community.skype.com/t5/Modern-Windows-from-​Windows/Where-are-the-files-saved-that-someone-sen​... Please don't copy all metro skype UI to skype desktop without thinking about usability and royal user expereince. Thanks! 
    Note: Another thing: THis forum seems like it let me post without me logging in. But when I submit the context, it redirects to login page. So, I chose to login with my account and it redirect back me to this forum and the post that I wrote a few min ago was totally gone.. Seriously?

  • Error: "We're having a problem opening this location on file explorer. Add this website to your trusted sites list and try again"

    Hello,
    When i try to open document library from SharePoint Production portal then it throws the specified error. However, when i open document library from SharePoint Development portal then it opens it in file explorer quite easily.
    Production portal is on https whereas development portal is on http. Also, UAG has been configured on production portal.
    Any idea where it's getting stuck up? Surely, this is not a browser issue on Windows 7 as it's opening the development portal's document library on the same machine.
    I've also done following things:
    - Configured Desktop Experience on production environment
    - Installed the hotfix for Windows 7
    Regards,
    Sohaib

    Hello Sohaib.
    Here is the list of causes defined here.Hope it helps you
    The cause and the resolution methods are the following:
    Cause: There is a missing Root site collection...
    Resolution: Check and ensure,  that the “Managed Paths” are not changed in the web Application’s page, there is a (root) explicit for
    this web application and there is a working Root site collection.
    If for any reason this is not the case in your environment, you may try the following:
    - Apply (if not already) the following Hotfix to one of those clients:
    Error when you open a SharePoint Document Library in Windows Explorer or map a network drive to the library after you install Internet Explorer 10 in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2846960
    Then, try to delete the cache of the IE browser before reproducing the issue. Check the result..
    - Try to temporarily disable the Antivirus and test again.
    - Check if you have installed the Desktop Experience feature on the SPS13 server.
    - Check if you face this behavior with all users, Or only with some specific ones, Or with all different client OSes.. 
    Otherwise you will need to collect the logs to further analyze...

  • Is there metadata of any kind on an export file that shows me the project file from where it was created?

    Is there any way in looking at the meta data of a .MOV exported from Final Cut 7 that allows me to see what the project file was? I have this exported file, but I can't locate the original project file from where it was from. Was hoping there would be some sort of data that exists that shows me the directory. I've searched by filename and date created all over my drives but no luck.

    Well, FCP comes from an age where it was assumed the editor had his $#%^ together.
    EDIT: One of my mentors had the conviction that every day when you left the cutting room, you should leave it in such a way that a perfect stranger could walk in in the morning and pick up right where you left off. I really strive to live up to that ideal. I know we all get crazy busy and don't always properly archive our stuff, but it DOES save a lot of headaches down the road.

  • ITunes can't locate music files THAT I CAN

    Last night, when I opened iTunes, each song I clicked on gave me a "!" next to it, followed by this message:
    "The song XYZ could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
    Well, I know exactly where the song is, which is where all the songs are and have been for some time on my LaCie external drive. They are, in fact, still there. When I go to a music file through the Finder and double-click the file name, it plays--through iTunes--and is recognized by iTunes thereafter. I could do this for all 2,500 songs, but I have a life to live in the next three to four years.
    Why is this happening and, more importantly, what can be done about it?

    this can also happen anytime the external drive is not available... i have 1/2 my library on an external drive and whenever the power goes out in my neighborhood, iTunes temporarilly looses the link to the external drive... my neighborhood was built in the 1920s, and the power goes out many times a year... i use an old powerbook for my iTunes computer, which i keep plugged into my stereo... when the power hiccups, the external drive goes down, but the powerbook continues on it's battery... if iTunes or the external drive get too confused by going up and down, then i just powercycle the external drive and reboot my powerbook and everything has normally gone back to normal... the power issues are part of the reason i wanted to keep as much as i could on the internal powerbook drive... and i keep everything backed up...
    anyway, i'll try you suggestion for the "option" on launch... i had to replace my external drive which finally died (from 2001)... so now i need to relink the files back to iTunes, hopefully not manually since i have about 2500 files to fix... i did copy all the files from the internal disc to the new external drive and merged the libraries, then tried using the iTunes preferences to point to the folder in the external drive... but that didn't work in my case... it still sees 1/2 of the files still in the internal drive and still has "!" for all the files on the external drive...
    for tlee61, this makes me wonder if you might not need to check the iTunes preferences to see where it is looking for your files. if you set it up to store all files on the external disc, and it is set up to copy in the files to the iTunes library, then that option in the preference file for the library location might have gotten changed inadvertently... if you have iTunes set up to NOT copy in the files, and your files are in random locations on the external drive, that may be much harder to solve... i'm not positive of the best approach... i think there may be an option for iTunes to search the drives for music, like when someone installs/runs iTunes for the 1st time... but i'm not sure, off the top of my head, how to trigger that... i may be looking for that option if i can't seem to figure out another way to relink my files... but i'm afraid that it will try to either copy everything from the external drive to the internal drive, where there is no more space, or that it will try to copy the files on the internal drive to the external drive, where i've already merged the files (and eliminated some duplications)...
    i very much want to keep all the metadata... so i'm hesitent to experiment blindly too much since i don't want to do something that "imports" all the songs, but looses all the metadata... in my case, it would be easier to relink the files manually than attempt to recreate all the metadata...
    if i find a solution besides just manually relinking files, i'll let you know...
    i expect there is a way to solve this...
    luck to us both-

  • ITunes can't locate some files that are right where they should be

    I'm using iTunes 12 for Windows.  I keep a huge iTunes library at home on a mapped NAS share and the same library at work on a local drive.  Every week on Monday I sync my entire iTunes folder from home to an external drive and then bring that external drive to work and sync it to my local drive there.  (Note: This is a one way sync; I never sync in the other direction.)  This system has worked flawlessly for six years.
    Within the last six weeks, I've started to get error messages on my work system saying that many (>1600) media files of various types cannot be located.  I assumed corruption was the issue so I deleted my entire 500GB iTunes folder and re-copied everything back over.  Not just the media files.  Everything.  The problem persists and I cannot figure out why.
    I have confirmed that iTunes on the work computer is referencing the correct iTunes library file.  I have confirmed that iTunes is pointing to the correct iTunes folder.  I have confirmed that the "missing" iTunes files are right where they should be.  (I have always had iTunes set to move imported media into the iTunes folder so there is no stray media floating around on either system.  And I have iTunes set to organize the media.)
    It is worth noting that I started seeing this around the time when I upgraded to iTunes 12.  When I upgraded to iTunes 12 I had to change the path to my home library from "\\<NAS>\iTunes\iTunes Music" to "M:\iTunes\iTunes Music" due to a bug in iTunes that created iPhone syncing issues if the iTunes library is on a network drive.  But I can't figure out why this would matter.  The path on the work computer is correct and all media files are there.
    Ideas? I just don't understand how deleting everything and starting over doesn't solve the issue since there is NO issue at home.

    Thanks again for your help with this, tt2.  (I keep wanting to call you "Alan".)
    I totally botched the repair process, including my library and media collection, four different times.  If not for the fact that I had a complete, up-to-date copy of my library and all media files I would be completely scr3wed right now.  I'm going to outline the mistakes I made for the benefit of those who might reference this thread in the future.
    A big part of my struggle was the underlying assumptions I was making about how the iTunes database is maintained and tracked.  It is not the same as the digital asset managers I use for work—Lightroom, for example.  I really had to quit thinking for myself and pay attention to what tt2 wrote about the way the iTunes db works in the link he provides earlier in this thread about making split libraries portable.
    The biggest mistake I made is failing to understand that after you move the iTunes library files (but not the media files) to a new iTunes drive or directory outside of the existing iTunes folder and then shift-click to open that relocated library in iTunes you have to set the iTunes Media folder location (in preferences>advanced) to the empty iTunes Media folder in the NEW iTunes folder.  You do NOT set it (or leave it) pointed to the old iTunes Music/Media folder where your files [may] actually reside before consolidation.  This mistake can make a bad situation much worse. 
    Finally, I did not have a split library in the sense that my media files were outside of my iTunes Media folder.  Because of this, when I incorrectly pointed the new iTunes library to the old iTunes Media folder and then consolidated I created 9,936 duplicate files.  I had a complete back up which made eliminating the duplicate files a simple process.  Without the backup I would have been in trouble.
    So...to fix my problem I followed tt2's instructions and did this:
    Backed up my entire M:\iTunes folder including libraries and media files.  If everything goes well, this backup will not be touched.
    Created a new A:\iTunes folder plus an empty A:\iTunes\iTunes Media folder.
    Moved everything from M:\iTunes to A:\iTunes EXCEPT for the iTunes Music* folder.  (*It was the new iTunes 9 and later hierarchy but with the old name.)
    Shift-Clicked to open iTunes and selected the iTunes library inside A:\iTunes.
    Once iTunes was open I went to Edit>Preferences>Advanced and made the empty A:\iTunes\iTunes Media the location of my media.
    Went to File>Library>Organize Library and choose "consolidate". After hours of file copying, my issue was resolved. A:\iTunes is portable.
    Confirmed that the new A:\iTunes library correctly links to all media in the A:\iTunes\iTunes Media folder and then deleted the M:\iTunes directory with the old M:\iTunes\iTunes Music folder inside.
    NOTE: It bears repeating that the problem solved was that I could not move my old M:\iTunes folder to a different workstation w/o breaking some of the links.  However all the links worked fine in the M:\iTunes location.  If this were not the case then this solution will not resolve anything. 

  • How can I get Premier to locate files automatically upon opening a project?

    I have worked several days on a project in Premier 13, importing several dozen movies and stills.  The program had no trouble locating the files that I had imported whenever I closed the program and reopened it.  Last night I turned off my computer. Tonight when I opened the project the program could not locate the files. I found I can locate them manually, but this is extremely tedious and time consuming. How do I get Premier to locate these files as it did before?

    Where are the files located?
    If they are on a device that is not part of the internal system of your computer (ie, an internal hard drive) it could be that the program is having trouble re-mapping its way to these files each time you restart your computer.

  • Sharepoint 2013 explorer view error - problem opening this location in file explorer (HTTPS + Win7 Enterprise 64 bit + IE9 32 bit + Office 2007 32 bit)

    Hi,
    We have a problem using Sharepoint 2013 explorer view. (Error - We're having a problem opening this location in file explorer. Add this web site to your trusted sites list and try again).
    I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit, Office 2007 32 bit and IE9 32 bit. And the sharepoint site is a https site.
    Some people in my organization are able to browse and some users getting the above error. (with the same client machine configuration)
    If I clear my browser cache, closes the browser and open it then the explorer view is working. But after a minute if I try again I'm getting the above mentioned error. This 1 minute expiration happens is since the first time I have used explorer
    view, not since I opened the browser.
    I have tried the following on my machine:
    1. Modified the web client service to run automatically.
    2. Verified the sharepoint site is part of trusted sites (https://*.spsite.com/)
    3. Compatibility mode is turned on.
    4. Tried adding
    AuthForwardServerList in the webclient registry settings under parameters. (restarted the web client)
    5. Verified the BasicAuthLevel set to 1 (since we are using SSL). Tried setting the BasicAuthLevel to 2 as well. (restarted the web client)
    6. Tried installing software update for web folders (KB907306).
    Verified the below on the production server:
    1. The web application has the root site collection.
    2. It has WebDav Publishing disabled under IIS Web Server feature.
    Could some one please help me in resolving this issue?
    Thanks.

    Hi  Deepak,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to use "Open with Explorer"  in a document library.
    For your issue, please verify the following:
    ActiveX controls must be enabled in IE.
    As you are using Windows 7 Server as the client computer, you must install the Desktop Experience feature from Server Manager.
    Make sure there is a working Root site collection.
    Install this hotfix for windows 7 work with sharepoint 2013 :hotfixv4.microsoft.com/.../463266_intl_x64_zip.exe

  • When I downloaded pics from my camera to iPhoto it put them in a file that was named with the download date. Can I do that with Aperture (as the download default)?

    I recently replaced iPhoto with Aperture. When I download pics into Aperture they are place in a file that's called "Untitled Project." When I downloaded pics from my camera to iPhoto they were put in a file that was named with the download date (YYYY MM DD). Can I do that with Aperture (as the download default)?

    My apologies.
    When I import I have an Applescript that stores the images in a year month day folder-project structure so I haven;t used the default Aperture behavior in some time. When I tested it out to reply to you I was doing it from the file system and it picked up the date from the folder.  mea culpa.
    Anyway the closest you can get is to have Aperture split the images by date. IN the Aperture preferences set the project split granularity
    Autosplit into Projects
    and then in the import window set
    Automatically split projects.
    This will give projects named Month Day, Year (ie: Mar 13, 2012) there is no way to change this
    As I said I have a script that runs on import and sets up a structure like:
    Of course many here will say not to name projects this way, that Aperture has the ability to sort by date and you're better off naming projects something more meaningful. For them that is true and it might be for you also. For me I like to store my masters this way, it works for the way I shoot.

  • Is it possible to have media files copied to a new location as you import them into a project?

    I have roughly 800gb of footage i've taken over the past 2 years of traveling, and I am making a single video montage... The files are located on an external drive, making them slower to work with. I have a 1tb ssd but not enough free space to copy all the files to it for sorting. What i want to do is have the files copy over to the SSD as i add them to the project, so that only the footage i'm going to use gets copied over to the SSD. The only way i can determine if i am going to use the footage or not is to scrub through and mark Ins and Outs in premiere...
    So i guess my question, in the simplest terms i can ask is, Is there a setting in Premiere, like the project manager tool which allows you to consolidate used media files to one destination, but one that will consolidate files as you add them to the project? or could i do this manually by repeatedly using the project manager tool to consolidate files periodically?
    Hope that makes sense...
    Oh, and yes, i have considered other methods to my madness, like reviewing the footage outside of premiere before deciding if i will use it or not, frankly, i have over 4000 pieces of footage and it's just much faster to scrub through them in premiere than to open each one in vlc to review. It's also much more convenient to mark my ins and outs as i review the footage, so premiere is my only option.
    Thanks!

    You can easily (and better, IMHO) do what you want in Adobe Prelude.  It's part of the CC subscription, and may have been included with CS6.
    Open the Ingest panel, navigate to the external drive where you have your source clips, make the thumbnails in the Ingest panel comfortably large, click a video clip to enable scrubbing, and use the J-K-L keys to navigate playback through the clips.  Put a check mark on the clips you want and be sure to select and set up the Transfer option on the right side of the panel before ingesting.  Don't select the Transcode option.
    Cheers,

    to database,

    I can.  This is a bug you are seeing we will have fixed in a future release.  You are working in a "Local" form (not an online form) and that "Add submit button" should not be shown at all, that is only for an online form.  If you move your form online when signed in, then it would have a Submit button automatically in Web View and in Page View would be able to be turned on and off.

  • How to add folder/project name to a File Naming preset

    Here's a tip to automatically add the name of the Project or its parent Folder to the filename during Import or Batch Change.
    I always used a custom field for adding my client's name to the filename upon Import or Batch Changing versions or masters. But often I would forget to change the custom name, and since it's auto-populated with the previous entry, I'd end up with a bunch of files with the wrong client's name on them. That looks kind of bad. So once I saw with Aperture 3 you can add the Project name or Folder name when relocating referenced files to the new folder structure, I was excited to be able to do the same for the filenames at import. Well, no such luck. They're not an option when you create a custom File Naming preset.
    However, I recently decided to poke around inside some plist files, and found a workaround. I discovered the format string for Folder Name is %F and Project Name is %P. The trick is getting the code into the Format Field where you create the preset.
    Create a new File Naming preset by choosing "edit" from the Version Name menu during Import or Batch Change. Drag everything you want in the name into the Format field, and enter %F or %P where you want the Folder or Project name. The tricky part is that you can't insert it between two existing criteria. It only works at the very end. After you have it in place, you can drag the criteria around to get it in the order you want.
    The alternative method is to insert the code directly into the plist. PLEASE, always make sure you're working with a copy and have a good backup when you're poking around in such things. If you have trouble getting the code to take from within Aperture, you can try this. Same as above, create a new preset, but this time, enter an F or P where you want the Folder or Project name. Give it a unique preset name and save it. Then Quit Aperture. Navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/FileNamingPresets.plist, and make a copy of the file, then open with Property List Editor. Dropdown the plist and then dropdown the item you want to edit. You should recognize it by the preset name. Now the easy part. Click in the FormatString field and insert the % character before the F or P you entered in the Format field. Save and you're done.
    I discovered later that while the Folder and Project name works just fine during import, for some reason only the Project name works during Batch Change. The Folder name simply creates a "-" in the filename.
    In case this is seen as a hack and gets deleted, I'm also submitting it to http://www.macosxhints.com/ and I suspect if anyone from MacCreate sees it, they'll steal it too, as they're known to do.

    I do not think there is an out of the box way to do this.
    The immediate solution that comes to mind is using a workflow, that runs everytime  a document is uploaded/item created, which may be too much for your scenario.

  • Is there a way to automatically sort/filter the itunes music list by files that  cannot be located?

    I have quite a lot of files that can't be located, and want to delete them all at once rather than clicking on everyfile to choose delete. Does anybody know of a way to sort the itunes listing so that I can group them all together to delete, or a way to automatically purge them all from the itunes file?

    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.
    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,
    Peace
