Need to find the kept removed files!

I am trying to get my new MacBook organized. I found that all my music files were double, so I decided to remove all the double files imported at a certain date. I checked "keep files", since I was a bit nervous if it was the right way to do it, but now I can't detect the "kept removed files". Where are they on my harddisk? They are NOT located under music/itunes music - where I would suspect to find them. I need to delete them properly, to free som gigas from the disk.

If they've been imported by iTunes, and you haven't specified another folder, they should all be in iTunes Music. Check for Unknown Album folders.
One possibility is that you've somehow duplicated entries in library; do all the tracks ask if you want to keep the original, or do some just delete without asking? If some delete without asking, they're simply aliases to the same files as the ones that ask.
If you imported them by dragging and dropping into iTunes from another folder (rather than directly from a CD), the originals will still be in that folder.

    I need to find the file location for my iCal in iCloud for my Mac. I inadvertently changed the file location in Terminal and need to restore the proper location but do not know how to locate that information. Any help is much appreciated,

    i need to find the download for ACR 7.3 to use my nikon d600 raw files. i have cs5 running on macbook pro with mountain lion OS.

    Hi,
    Unfortunatly the 7.x series of camera raw plugin is not compatible with photoshop cs5.
    You could download the 7.4 DNG Converter and convert your d600 files to dng copies which then photoshop cs5 will open.

  • Need help finding the right codec to play QT files

    Like many others who have posted, all the quicktime files on my drive have turned to black. Previously when I opened the file, I saw picture and sound. Now every single file has only audio, but the picture is black.
    I am operation on Mac O.S. 10.4.11. I am using Quicktime Pro 7.5. I have been trying to fix this problem for a month now. Many people have suggested I need to find the right codec, but so far I have not found it. I have tried: A52codec.component, AC3codec, MacOS 8.x, 9.1.x, Apple Intermediate Codec.com, Apple MPEG2.codec.component, Avilmporter-r7.component, DivX Decoder.component, DivX Encoder.component, DivX Pro 6.8.0.19 + keymaker, EnsharpEncoderMacOsX.cmg, Fbx 20091quicktime_macemu.pkg.tar, Fbx QT.pkg, Flipsformac, WMV Advanced.component, Flipsformac WMV Advanced Exports.component, Flipsformac WMV Import.component, IMXCodec.component, LAAME Universal Installer.mpkg, LAAMEncoder.component, QSSP_2.1.dmg, QSXEssentials.component, QSXEssentials.dmg, QTFvx.component, Red Quicktime Codec v3.1.pkg, Red Code iedcod.qt.component, Spectrograph.component, TSCC.component xiphqt.component, XviD_codec-r58.component, XviDELEGATE.component
    Nothing worked!
    I also tried to install Perian. This did not work.
    What should I do? Should I re-install my operating system and start over? About a month ago, all the video clips played just fine. Is there any solution?
    Thanks

    Hi Wangerer!
    I haven't even heard of half of those! You may have reached overkill on codecs!
    Get rid of some of them and read this:
    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, 3.1, 3.1.1, QT 7.3, 7.4.x and 7.5 and OS 10.4.11.
    Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.11 and have Quicktime 7.4 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 11 (which is no longer in beta) for Mac from:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15540
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    Adobe FlashPlayer should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2
    and then the latest version obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    and installed.
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS, but please see my footnote if you are running Leopard.)
    In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11, that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates up to and including 2008-004. (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    And now there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash should be. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards):
    http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
    FOOTNOTE
    If you are running Leopard:
    Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&sliceId=1

  • Error updating QuickTime7.  can't find the quicktime.msi file?

    I get an error message when I try to update my version of Quicktime7.  It apparently can't find the quicktime.msi file in the temp directory?

    First try this fixit:
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    If that doesn't work you may need the the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility
    Unfortunately the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility has been withdrawn by Microsoft because of compatibility issues with Microsoft Office so you will need to find a copy elsewhere – the installer is msicuu2.exe. You need version 3.
    Google  msicuu2.exe download
    mydigitallife in the above search has a copy of version 3
    Check for malware before installing it.
    After installing, To run the program  – All Programs>>Windows Install
    If you get  permission denied error, Try Run as Administrator – an option if you right click on the program.
    Try uninstalling Quicktime, this will probably fail, don't worry
    delete the following folder/files (I am assuming 32 bit XP, if you have something else it may be different, post back with info)
    C:\Program Files\QuickTime\
    C:\Windows\System32\QuickTime
    C:\Windows\System32\QuickTimeVR
    Download QuickTime onto your PC
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any instance you find of Quicktime
    Restart your PC

  • Where can I find the a downloaded file by Software update?

    Where can I find the a downloaded file by Software update?
    For example is there any way to find a package which is downloaded but is not installed(because the installation failed) (in this case 10.5.5) and I don't want to download it once again neither manually nor with software update.

    sina_golesorkhi wrote:

    In ~/Downloads
    For example is there any way to find a package which is downloaded but is not installed(because the installation failed) (in this case 10.5.5)
    Failed installs usually remove the package, just as a proper install removes the package
    All that remains for a proper installation is a Receipt in on of the following directories:
    ~/Library/Receipts (for user-specific installs)
    Macintosh HD/Library/Receipts
    for system-wide installations, including OS-X updates.
    and I don't want to download it once again neither manually nor with software update.
    If it did not install, there is no Receipt and the downloaded file is not on your system
    If you don't want to see it again in automatic updates, put it on ignore.
