Media Player 12: No destination folder for CD copy...

Hey there,
I've got this 500GB external USB drive that was synchronizing with WinMedia 12 flawlessly...BUT I had to change the drive's letter (from H: to X:)....and since then WM12 won't give me the option to choose a destination folder nor will copy any discs.
It's that menu:
----> Library / Tools / Options / CD Copy
But under "copy the music to this destination" there's nothing, not even the default Music folder in C:
The "change" button doesn't work and when I put a CD and hit Copy, I get an error about WM12 being unable to copy the disk...
I tried reverting the drive back to H:, but it made no difference.
Help!
PS: My Win7 Pro is in brazilian portuguese, so I'm not sure my english version of the menus' tags is accurate...

Hi,
This issue may occur if the "Default Music Library locations" refers to an unavailable location.
To troubleshoot this issue, please reset default library location as below:
1. In WMP, click the arrow besides Organize, choose Manage Libraries -> Music
2. If the default save location is unavailable, please choose another location and set it as default save location.
3. After that, you can rip CD
After rip, try copying it to the USB drive.

I am using Firefox 3.6.13 and have installed Windows Media Player 1.0.0.8 for Firefox. However, if I attempt to open a file with a .wmv extension it appears to function properly, except, that I cannot "play" the file. What am I doing wrong?

You probably have not seen anyone reporting the exact same problem as you. All three crash reports have the same crash signature and as currently ranked 67 it is not the commonest of reasons for a crash.
I hope you enter your email contact information when reporting crashes. I note you see this crash when using videos, others may possibly see this crash in other circumstances.
You have already tried the obvious, attempts at a fix so it is now down to wait and see, maybe developers working on the bug will report something or fix it.
Did you try my suggestion of installing portable ESR ?

How choose destination folder for images edited in external program?

Using LR 2.3 with the Windows 7 beta. It seems to me there should be a preference or option to set the destination folder for an image sent for editing in Photoshop. The default is the folder where the originals are located, which seems to me to be the worst choice. In any event, I can't find where in LR the user can choose a destination folder for the edited image. Ideally, the user should be able to choose this for each set of images being edited, and the choice would be available in the dialog that appears when the user sends an image out to Photoshop.
So is there a way to set the destination folder for the image that results from sending an image out for editing in Photoshop or other external application?
Any help with this would be very much appreciated.

Thanks very much. I have CS4, but haven't installed it yet. So I have been using the rendering option. Apparently that is part of the problem, because I seem to recall that there was a Save As option shown when LR 2 was compatible with whatever the ACR with CS3 was.
Saving with originals seems an odd default. I wouldn't think too many photographers mix processed work with originals, and making the destination folder choice always available wouldn't seem to be a particularly difficult piece of engineering.
Anyway, your answer was very helpful.

How do I change the destination folder for Icloud Itunes down loads?

How do I change the destination folder when I download songs from the Icloud?...I want the songs to go to an external hard drive and not the hard drive on my pc

You might want to ask that question over in the iTunes for Windows forum. They should know if it's possible to change the location to and external drive.

Why does file picker unexpectadly closed by Windows message keep hanging Firefox 4 when trying to browse destination folder for download?

Whenever I try to download a file, Firefox 4 asks me to choose a destination folder, then when I browse and choose the folder for the download, Firefox just hangs, and I get the file picker unexpectedly closed by Windows message. I end up having to use task manager to close Firefox.

The post I was responding to said,
"Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps. "
Somehow, I think that means Windows...
I've tried Firefox in Safe Mode - it makes no difference.

2nd destination folder for iTunes media appears in my external hard drive ?

I've been having trouble with my external hard drive that houses my iTunes media (33,000 songs).
I've solved that issue, but during the course of it, because the external was flitting in and out,
I believe the destination for media in iTunes preferences went from : /Volumes/iomega/iTunes Media to
simply "/Volumes/iomega"
Now I have a new external hard drive folder named "Music", and all activity in it is just from yesterday.
My guess is when all this was happening, I'd get the "do you want to organize your media" question from the advanced preferences.
One time I pushed "yes" and a lot of files started buzzing. I didn't want to wait for 33,000 songs so I stopped.
Am I right in guessing iTunes was reorganizing my stuff to the new folder "Music"? Less than 1,000 songs are in the file, and
those are no longer in the old "iTunes Media" file. There's really no consistency to what shifted...it might be a single
song shifted over while five others on the same album stayed behind. I can't just shift the folders back because it will replace
the original artist folder with the new one, which will lose a lot of songs. I tried manually to shift some back song by song and
it worked OK. But it would take forever to shift them back in that fashion.
Is there a way to get everything back in a single folder? If I do the "organize" thing thru iTunes and let it run, will it
eventually shift everything from my old "iTunes media" folder to the newer "Music" folder that appeared yesterday?
And will iTunes then recognize that as the active media folder and I'll redirect new media to that folder??

Here are the typical layouts for the iTunes folders (albeit Windows images):
Older versions of iTunes would put artist folder inside the media folder, newer versions inside <Media Folder>/Music. I'm guessing that your library was in the older layout, even if the main folder was called iTunes Media, instead of the new one. There is an option to move from the old layout to the new one. Moving from the new one back to the old one can be achieved by tweaking a hidden preference file in the media folder. There are however good reasons for preferring the newer layout when it comes to moving your library to a new drive or computer. Details in Make a split library portable.
Have I understood the issue? If you really want to force the old layout edit the file .iTunes Preferences.plist in your media folder and change the integer from 1 to 0 then turn the "Keep media folder organized" preference off, then back on again.

Destination Folder for Lightroom 4

What should the desitnation folder be for Lightroom 4?

Megan, I agree with Rob. Here is what I teach my students. When you shoot (it doesn't matter if JPG or raw; if both, just delete the JPG before importing), what you conceptually have is a negative (of course, it's actually a positive). I keep the organization simple and put all my images (with two engineering details specified below) in one "bucket", my Negatives folder. I export my favorite pictures, potentially (probably) after some editing, to a subfolder under my Pictures folder. So, if you have taken img1.jpg, img2.jpg, and img3.jpg, after import, you'd have, maybe, d:\negatives\img1.jpg, d:\negatives\img2.jpg, and d:\negatives\img3.jpg . Maybe you edit and want to save the first image as a flower picture, don't do anything with image 2 (or delete it), and export image 3 as a portrait. Perhaps, you'll end up with d:\pictures\gardens\roseGardens\xyzGardenDallasTX\20121211'DoubleDelight'Rose(338pm).jpg and d:\pictures\family\john\20121211(1131a)JohnStudyingCrystalCreek.jpg.
Now for the engineering details. Most people will cycle through the image names (img_0001 through img_9999), so I divide my negatives folder by quarter - 20124Q, for example. The other "gotcha" is that if you are shooting with more than one camera, set one to be your default camera. Pictures from other cameras shoudl be renamed - e.g., "img_3773{PowerShotS100}.jpg" so that the images don't overwrite each other.

Flash Media Player which handles bitrate switching for live streams?

Hello. I've got a very short timescale to find a solution for a way to display livestreams with bitrate switching. Does anyone
know of any opensource players which can do this effectively? Or do the inbuilt components in CS4 deal with this ok?

Thanks,I have read that article. Based on that article the NetStreamInfo.maxBytesPerSecond is not an accurate measurement to base dynamic switching on. This seems to be the basis of the bitrate switching in both the longtail player, and the adobe examples that I have tried. That article suggests using the dropped frames property, in conjunciton with bufferlength to determine if switching is neccessary. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a player online which handles this successfully. That being said, I can't believe I'm the only person trying to implement dynamic bitrate switching for live streams so surely there are some players out there which can do this successfully? If anyone knows of any code available which does this successfully I would appreciate knowing where! The examples provided by Adobe https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=fms35 unfortunately don't work either.

Where do i change my destination folder for download of CS6 products

thank you if possible answer.

Hi svensevens,
While downloading the software, it will prompt to select the folder to download, you can specify then.
The default location is usually the 'Downloads' folder on your computer.

Why is the destination folder for expdp Datapump NOT recognized ?

I entered the following command:
expdp "D:\mydata" TABLES=CTEST DUMPFILE=tabledata.txt
Curiously the resulting dumpfile is created in the directory
...\Oracle\app\oracle\admin\dpdump rather than
in D:\mydata as intended.
How can specify the target directory for the dump file otherwise?

If you look in dba_directories view, you will see a default directory into which datapump will place/read dump files. You will find something like DATA_PUMP_DIR which points to the default location. Read and write are granted to imp_full_database and exp_full_database roles.
You can change this with the CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY data_pump_dir AS <fully qualified location in single quotes >; command,
Or you can create a new directory with the same command and your own directory name. You will have to GRANT read, write ON DIRECTORY <mydir> TO ...
Now, you can use the DIRECTORY argument in the impdp and expdp

How can the built in media player (MP3 etc.) be disabled in Firefox for Android?

I am trying to figure out how to disable the media player so that media files get downloaded for playback later using my preferred Android media player. In my search for a solution I found the about:config method for the desktop version of Firefox but settings don't appear to be implemented in the Android version at this time. I'm on a rooted phone so command line / config file hacking is an option if that's what it takes.

Unfortunately not as it's a redirect link for a podcast (see: http://twit.tv/show/this-week-in-tech/407 for example the audio link takes you to http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/aolradio.podcast.aol.com/twit/twit0407.mp3 ) Since this is how they get paid for their content, I'd rather not try to bypass it if I can help it. What I'd really like is behavior Firefox (on the desktop, at least) used to have: click the link and it treats it as an unknown file and just downloads it.

How do I force Safari to use Windows Media Player as my default WMV player.

I am subscribed to a educational program called "the Epson Online Experience", and the entire program is in Windows Media Player videos. I was using Safari and Mac OS 10.3.9 with no problem what so ever, until Quick Time updated itself. Now I can't get WMP to play at all in Safari, or in Camino or IE either. The browsers just keep trying to play the link in Quick Time.
I did download Flip4Mac, but with no luck. The links now appear to open, appear to be downloading the buffer, but will stay on that screen for hours if I allow it.
Does anyone know how to make Windows Media Player the default media player in Safari? or for that matter, in Camino (or if I MUST, I guess I would be willing to try it in IE too if I could make it work.
Thanks for the help!

Welcome to Apple Discussions. Your post seems to have been lost in a sea of Safari problems.
Usually items triggering media players create a file, which is downloaded into your system. Check your download folder for the file. If you can't find it, access the same file again via Safari.
Once you locate the file on your HD, click on it. Then, command key + I will bring up the info panel for the file (or simply select "more info" in the preview panel if you're in the finder's column mode). Go to the bottom where you'll see "open with". There, you see "quicktime" listed as the app. for opening the file. Click on the drop down menu and find the Windows player and select it.
Back to the info. panel - select "change all". This will revert all files of this type on your HD, plus future files to the Windows Media Player. Double click on the file to activate the video. Future selections in Safari will automatically open the correct media player. One other note, for the player to open automatically, you must check "open safe files after downloading" in your Safari Preferences>General panel.
Post back with results.
