Lao Bo,
yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
find / -iname filename -print
This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
find /Users/username -iname filename -print
Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
ls /Volumes
Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.

Aperture 3 project does not display any images in one Project

This is a strange situation. The bullets below outline the situation:
The project does not display any images
When I place the pointer over the project it shows there are 500+ images
I have located the RAW images stored in my aperture library
I can pull up the images using a smart folder and searching for photos taken on the event day
This is happening only to one of my projects that I know of (weird!!)
I have tried to 're-add' the image by both importing and dragging and dropping into the project, neither works
I tried the following basics:
Fixed permissions
Rebuilt the database
Tried to re-import the data, but when I have the 'don't import duplicates' these are not an option
Found the images in my Aperture library
I created another project and drug all of the images into that project
Any idea how I can fix this?
My fear is that if I delete the original project, the original master images will be deleted.

The most common cause of this is some sort of stuff in the search box at the top of the browser that you don't expect to be there. Just clear it and all your images should show up.

One note - if you drug your images from one project to another it moves them vs copies them unless you hold down the option key.

We've used the 400 to 800 firewire cables with limited success in the past...dropped frames was the main problem. Only used them until the Sonnet FireWire PCIe Card came in to allow a 400 firewire.

Hi,
S_alr_87013611 is a report where we can see the planned and actual costs in cost elements in cost center wise for a specific controlling are for a given period.
Please check if your GL accounts are assigned with the cost elements in FS00.
If not create them.
You can assing all cost elements to many GL at a time using
OKb2_ Give the range and the cost element for each range eg, expenses range - cost element 1, incomeange _Cost element as 11 etc.

Missing sound. my Mac Pro does not have any sound

My computer does not produce any sound when playing back any media files

Good Morning gmcres,
If you are not hearing sound from your computer, take a look at the troubleshooting steps below. Is this only happening in iTunes? Are you able to hear system sounds (alerts, etc.)?

Trash not displaying any images

I saw the same issue elsewhere on this forum but I can't find the thread now. But I have deleted 221 images in A3 which are now sitting in my Aperture Trash. When I click on the trash it doesn't show any images. I can right click and empty the trash but say i want to restore an image I can't as I can't see them. In the filter at the top right i have Show All so there is nothing filtered.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the issue may be. I'm guessing it is a setting of sorts that maybe I have overlooked as opposed to a bug but any thoughts would be appreciated.
Regards

Just a question on this. Does anyone know if when you delete an image in A3 whether it actually moves the image or whether it just tags it as deleted and the Trash is effectively a smart folder looking for any images that are tagged trash. Then when you empty the trash Aperture actually then takes these marked images and trashes them? (Does Aperture at this point permanently delete the image or send it to the computers trash where it can in theory be recovered?).
The reason I ask is because if the former is correct it might make sense with regard to some other activity I have seen with A3. As my understanding is that with the smart albums they should update automatically and instantly? So if I have a smart album looking for the keyword landscape say and I tag a new photo as landscape it should instantly appear in the smart album? As at times I have had to go in to the smart album untick the keyword look up 'landscape' and then re tick it again to get A3 to show the newly tagged photos.
So it could be that I am somehow having an issue related to this. Additionally I have an album that aperture shows as having say 23 images in but when clicking in to the album there are in fact only 22 images (with all stacks expanded).
It doesn't seem that anyone else is seeing these issues so I wonder if it is an Aperture database issue or an Aperture software issue and whether reinstalling A3 may resolve whatever issues I have? However this will lose all my settings I suspect?
If anyone has any knowledge or ideas then please let me know. Thanks.

My mac pro crashed. Apple genius people said to reinstall snow leopard. I did and it failed to start after i installed. I started with the power button, tried to install upgrades, and now I get only a grey screen with spining wheel.

How can I restart a mac pro that shows only a grey screen with a spinning wheel. I reinstalled snow leopard (10.6.3) over 10.6.8 because apple genious people said I had problems with my library files after a time capsule crash. I reinstalled but when done I got only a blue screen. I restarted with the power button and tried to insall 10.6 combined upgrades. I got an error message that it could not install because of an error. When I powered down and tried to restart, I get only a grey screen. My optical drive does not open so I can't restart from another source.

Restart, holding down the mouse button. That should eject the disc. Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC. Then, pop in the install disc, restart with it in again, select your language, and, when the menu bar pops up, select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. select the boot volume and repair the disk.

Opinions, Mac pro 12 core or 6 core for video editing?

Hello everyone,
I know that this a most likely a rhetorical question but i currently have a mac pro 12 core 2.4ghz 12 gigs of ram (plan on upgrading to 32 gigs) and a 6 core 3.33ghz 12 gigs of ram. I do a lot of video editing (starting to use Final cut pro X) and i do a lot of visual effects work in Adobe after effects and 3D animaton work in cinema 4d. I am only keeping one of the computers.. what are your guys thoughts? Should i keep the 12 core even tough it has a lower clock speed, or should i keep the 6 core since it has a higher clock speed? I dont mean to ask such a dumb question but i want to hear what your guys thoughts are.
Thanks in advance!

If you rely on cpu alone, it may look like it is working, or lagging, or wating, but with the combined power of GPGPU can make all the difference.
Communicating over Quick-Path is okay but Intel knows that they need to up the GT and L3 cache to improve it more. ie, there are times when two 6-core Mac Pros are faster than one 12-core, given the same GHz.
the real reason people bought dual with lower clock was hoping it would do more work, but when you have 3.33GHz a lot of work that cann't be dispatched and is not multi-thread or multicore all benefit.
W3680s are relatively cheap @ $600, you will not find X5600 sets unless you can make your system pay for whatever you throw at it and do so in a year to write it off and pay for doing more projects and more income.
This guy goes kind of crazy with custom setup 12-core 3.33s, 960GB SSD PCIe and 96GB RAM.
More RAM helps some areas but not rendering. So find the bottlenecks or throw everything at the problem and hope.
$1660 a piece X5680 - $1470 on Amazon

http://www.amazon.com/Intel-X5680-Processor-Socket-LGA1366/dp/B003ELYSJQ/
Only if you shop ebay for used parts, and by then whatever Intel and Apple agree on next go round new is a better system solution most of the time than to throw $3000 into an older system. $3k would be another 6-core 3.33 if that helps.

I do not have any icon for videos or movies on my IPad 3

I do not have any icon on my IPad 3 for videos or movies. How to get it
Message was edited by: carboran

If you mean on the home screen, you should probably get an iOS update. If you mean within specific apps, you should probably close down the app, reset it and try again. If you mean in general, you should reset the iPad (home and hold button together until apple logo shows). If you mean in life, you probably need to get to an apple store to get your iPad looked at or borrowing a pair of glasses.
Hope this helps and good luck.

Mac Pro Screen not displaying correctly

I have had a problem with my mac which is i have recently bought. The problem is that occasionally the screen will become fragmented and be all over the place and i am unable to see anything and i have to restart the laptop. This happens at least twice a day and can happen when i shut the lid of the mac or i am on it. Another problem that i have is that a message often pops up stating that my mac has to restart and i'm not really sure why. If anyone else has this problem and has sorted it out please let me know.

The CO11N Goods Movement Overview does not display any materials for BOM

Hello folks;
I can't seem to get a hit when searching for my particular question, which most likely is an easy one for most of you.
A new BOM was set up consiting of individual materials (no sub-assemblies).
After a production order was created (CO01) and released and a reservation was created, the user went to the CO11N transaction to process the first Operation (Issue the components to the Order).
He clicks the "Goods Movement" button and the "Enter production order confirmation: goods movement" screen that displays is blank! There are no components listed with the "261" movement type.
All the other BOM's that we process do not have this problem and their components appear except for this new BOM that was created.
What are we missing?
I'm sure this is an easy question for you folks since I am mainly an ABAP'er with some Logistics config experience.
Thanks in advance.
Scott.

Thank you so much. The person who created the Routing did not click on any of the Backflush flags.
I will have them fix the Routing.
Thanks again.
Points awarded.

Rented movie; will not display; native video app will not display any of my videos

I rented a movie last night using the iTunes Store app on my iPad. The movie just barely started, then froze. Now the native video app doesn't work at all. I can tell that it's "on" when I touch the "video" app -- the screen displays nothing, but it's dimly lit. Help! Has anyone else had this problem?

Carolyn: I was able, through more research in the discussion groups, to find a solution that resolved my problem! In the HD>applications folder>safari>get info I checked the "open in 32 bit mode" box. Then I went to Adobe Reader>preferences>Internet and unchecked the box "display PDF in browser using" [Adobe Reader 9.3.3]. I then closed my Safari Browser, restarted the computer and, happy days are here again! On my older G5 I only had to set the preferences on the Adobe Preferences, as Safari 5.0.1 only appears to work in 32 bit mode, as the 32 bit mode check box was not there. You may want to pass this on to other users with the same or similar problems.

HT201401 My new Iphone 4 camera is not functioning. When I click the phone icon. The photo shutter appears, but nothing else happens. I've shut the phone off and turned on serveral times. The same thing occures.,

My new iphone 4S camera is not functioning. When I click the phone icon, the shutter appears. Then the screen only shows the shutter. When I go back to the home screen and click the phone icon again. The photo screen only shows a black screen. The button to take photos is locked the entire time. I've turned the phone on and off several times.

Basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Have these ALL been tried?
