Over 100GB!! Is this Accurate I seriously doubt it...

Ok well on the 23 May we get some message about being above 80gb. At the time I found this to be fairly suspect. I myself probably use the internet the most out of anyone within the house and for the month of May I haven't downloaded that much apart from the odd patches for games, drivers and a couple of games I got off steam. No more than usual. Everyone else within the household has a very low download rate compared to me. Anyway on the 30th of May we get a message saying we are now over 100 gb????? So in 7 days after we have seen the warning message about being at 80gb we have used 20 gb???? It doesn't make any sense especially considering the fact everyone ensured they didn't download or upload any big files due to the warning.
We had a 80 gb warning as well for January which we received in February. I found this close to acceptable as in January I downloaded a hell of a lot probably about triple the amount I downloaded in May yet we reached just over 80 gb for January.
Is there anyone that can look into this for me?? I seriously doubt we went near 100gb I don't think it would even be possible for us to do this. In my opinion this seems very wrong indeed.

Hi Smudge
To be honest, I don't believe that there is a delay in the email as such, there could be a delay in it being sent rather than it arriving late - but I anticipate that really isn't the case.
The problem as I've mentioned before, is that the 80GB email doesn't actually say how much has been reached, it could be anything from 80GB to 99GB. Hence a couple of Steam games of a few GB could easily put the figure over 100GB.
This is clearly a massive failing, and BT should do something about this - but I'm afraid it appears to be falling on deaf ears. There are more and more people reporting this situation.
However here is an interesting situation. Someone has reported in the BTinternet newsgroups that they had received the 100GB email and that it was actually sent to them in error! Now if this information is 100% accurate, then this does open up a serious problem in that how could it be sent error, and how accurate are the usage figures ?

Windows installer folder - Over 100GB

Hi Guys (and Girls)
We have been doing a routine check on a terminal server and have found out that it has over 100GB of files inside the windows/installer folder.
We have found the route cause to be Microsoft office failing to install updates due to a GPO setting, we have now allowed the updates to install correctly but cannot see a way of clearing all the files that are here due to the failed updates.
Can somebody help point me in the right direction ?
Thanks
Carl

Hi,
You can use msizap.exe command to remove the orphaned files and folders in the Installer folder, but please note that some of your applications will not be uninstalled properly after deleting the files and you may not patch products anymore because product
registration is missing.
For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:

IOS7 op syst induces me to motion sickness, vertigo, nauseas, and eye hurting. I took all indicated steps as a solution and nothing happened. I wonder if APPLE is taking this HUGE issue seriously? People with Epilepsia has ended in the hospital!!
Today I went to the APPLE STORE in the Aventura Mall, Miami FL and the Staff pretended not to have heard anything about the subject, this could imply an I don't care attitude or lack of knowledge of what is all over the news and internet on this major issue.
The solution given about going to settings, general, accesibility, reduce motion ON does not solve the serious problem. What it most worry me is that I am wondering if I keep on using the IOS7 op system this issue of the motion sickness, dizziness, nauseas, etc coul cause brain damage?

I don't think Apple would actually do anything about it. They have a 30 day return policy and if customers aren't happy with the product they can return it for a full refund. In fact, I am pretty sure when you select agree to the "Terms and Conditions" of using the phone - it covers the fact

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? If you have not already, be sure to update 12 to 12.1, using an opened project's Help Menu/Update.
But to the immediate questions, assuming Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit....
1. No, it is what it is. But, are you applying the same transition each time? If so, then highlight/select all the clips involved (all at one time), then Timeline Menu/Apply Default Transition will do just that for the highlighted/selected clips.
To highlight/select more than one clip at a time, hold down the Shift key of the computer main keyboard and then click on each clip that you want in the group selection
or
with your mouse cursor draw a rectangle around the clips that you want to select
2. Are you using the Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Expert workspace Pan and Zoom Tool? Or the pan or zoom presets under fx Effects/Presets/? With those you can do pan or zoom, not pan and zoom.
Or, are you in the Elements Organizer 12 Slideshow Editor using the pan and zoom effect there? Or, are you using keyframing the Motion Scale property for zoom and the Motion Position property for pan?
Are you asking about photos with landscape or portrait orientation?
The pan and zoom tool does one photo at a time.
Have you read the Adobe documentation on the Pan and Zoom Tool?

You can do an out-of-warranty replacement at an Apple Store for a fee, get a 3rd party site to repair it, sell it for parts, or get a new one.

IS THIS LEGAL ? I HAVE SERIOUS DOUBTS !

I have just seen an advert for the Full Retail FCE 4 from a POWER SELLER on eBay.
The price is £50 as opposed to £129 normally.
This is the explanation he gives for the low price:-
"In this auction we have another great deal for the professioanl video editing suite of Apple Final Cut Express 4. We have aquired some serial codes and a DVD master disc for this software. Each purchase will be supplied with a BURNT DISC of the original master and their own unique serial for installation and registration.
We must stress that each serial code can only be used once otherwise a breach of copyright has been made."
I have never heard this talk about "acquiring serial codes" before and am sure it must be illegal but can't be absolutely certain.
Any ideas ?

Further info:-
This business also sells Mac computers amongst many other things and claims that the FCE 4 and other software it sells is on a "RETAIL BULK LICENSE".
Put simply it sounds as though they are buying Bulk Licenses so that they can install these applications as and when necessary on the computers they sell using their MASTER DISC.
Sometimes they buy more Bulk Licenses than they require and sell them off in this way.
It almost sounds plausible but I have serious misgivings.
The company, apart from trading elsewhere, has been a Power Seller on eBay for the past 4 years, so you would imagine that if they were dodgy, they would have been spotted by now.

RAID Admin reality check -- this software needs serious work

Folks: This is a combination rant about RAID Admin 1.5 (on OSX 10.3.9) and plea for any suggestions for things I may have missed.
RAID Admin -- an utterly crucial tool for responsibly administering an X Serve RAID, itself offered for use in mission critical applications. But RAID Admin is just one frustration after another.
1. Can't start due to broken Java or somesuch. As reported by several others elsewhere, and experienced herre, some QT upgrade breaks ability to launch RA. Thee's a "solution" of rolling back QT -- doesn't work. There's a command-line workaround for launching, but if this is really broken Java, how can you trust other functions of RA? Anyhow, we're running it from console of X Server with non-recent-QT.
2. Finding the RAID Array is totally hit or miss. (And BTW -- don't get hosed by the little feature that it's not sufficient to have the RAID hooked up by fiber... you also have to have the ethernet cables connected). Sometines RA finds the nearby RAIDs by itself, sometimes it finds one of two, sometimes none... figure on entering the IP addresses by hand.
3. Serious memory leak. Leave RA running for a few hours and it ***** up >100% CPU (on dual G4), huge amount of memory, and is almost completely unresponsive (apparently due to huge disk activity to swap virtual memory). Example: after 12 hours uses 372 Meg of real memory and 1.3 G of VM. Quit and restart fixes the problem... but do you really want to do that in midst of lengthy admin operation?
4. Array Conditioning: Seems like a great idea -- but how can you tell whether it's doing anything useful? It generates errors to the event window showing bad blocks.... OK great... what do they mean? Is it fixing them? Where is its output? Maybe we could learn that from the docs....
5. Oh right... no docs. Still stuck on RA 1.2 docs. No mention of Array Conditioning found anywhere in Help, or at apple.com... except to advertise that the feature exists.
Graham

William, thanks for your response, comments inline below:
I have not personally experienced any of the first 3
issues you note. And I've run RAID Admin on 30-40
different systems, and monitored 100+ RAIDs, over the
past 3 years.
... it is good to hear a general level of satisfaction...
Are you experiencing this on just one system --
have you ever tried another machine?
What do you mean? We have one X Serve, and one RAID, and that's the one we need to admin. How would we introduce another machine into the scenario?
I'd suggest that your Java installation has
serious issues.
Why would you suggest that? As I noted, the Java-suspected issue was not on the machine that I reported the rest of the problems on. It simple obliges us not to use RAID Admin remotely (and conveniently) since all the remote machines are up to date with updates including QT.
Also note, it's impossible for RAID Admin to have a
leak. Java has a garbage collector. Therefore, if
there's a leak, it's a JVM problem, and not a RAID
Admin problem.
That line of argument would be correct if the leak was due to orphaned objects -- ie: objects no longer refered to and not garbage collected. There's nothing to stop a program in whatever language just consuming more and more memory because the programmer neglected to throw away unneeded objects.
However, since posting, the Array Conditioning operation has completed, and I've noticed that the memory eating behavior has stopped. I've posted a correction on this.
For #4 and #5, I'd suggest reading the Kbase article
which details the updates and what they're good for:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302780
Where on that page are you seeing info that addresses 4 and 5? This is in fact the one page I was refering to: it advertises the feature, but where are the docs?
I'd suggest you figure out what's wrong
with your Java installation.
No reason to suspect Java on the server, where we are running RAID Admin.
I posted some command-line options which will
give diagnostic output in other threads,
... that could be useful, could you be more specific about where you posted them, and do they cover the result of Array Conditioning?
Thanks again for your answers,
Graham

Aperture Size Over 300GB, is this too big

Greetings,
I have a library a little over 300 GB in size, and growing. I am about to upgrade to Aperture 3, but am scared because if anything happens to this file, I am toast, (all of my family pictures there). I know there are a trillion discussions about how to save files, but my main concern is if I should split the library's up into smaller ones, (perhaps by month), and if so what is the best method of doing so but still have access to the pictures with ease. What is a good size for a library so it is easy to manage.
Thanks in advance.

Michael-
Yours is a common problem, even typical when folks use Managed Masters. With a 300+ GB Library you are no doubt currently using Aperture's (unfortunately default) Managed-Masters setup, which invariably leads to overfilled hard drives on single-drive boxes.
Splitting into multiple Libraries is a very bad idea, unnecessary and defeating of the purpose of an images management app. Once you switch to the more appropriate *Referenced-Masters Library* Aperture will help you keep from overfilling the internal drive.
First off, all *hard drives should be less than 70% full.* That is important for speed and stability. Don't try to do anything until <70% full is achieved for all drives. To get to less than 70% full move data off of the internal drive to external drives.
The Aperture Library should live on the internal drive for best speed.
Best solution (after you achieve minimum 30% free space on all drives), especially with mobility-hardware computers like laptops and iMacs, is to reconfigure your image Masters to have a *Referenced-Masters Library* on the internal drive with the Masters referenced on external drives via FW800 or (preferably) eSATA; however Referenced Masters usually do still work adequately with Masters accessed on externals via slower methods like FW400 or USB. After a slow reconfiguration process it will work fine, your speed and operation will be recovered and the Referenced-Masters Library will remain a reasonable size, not again grow to overfill the internal drive.
Note that Vaults back up the Library but a Referenced-Masters Library does not have the Masters in it, so Masters must be separately backed up. *I very strongly recommend that back up of original Master files be performed BEFORE importing into Aperture.*
Aperture 3 has improved methodology for handling Libraries. I suggest that your steps should be:
• Back up your current Library with its Masters to a Vault on an external drive.
• Move data off of the internal drive to external drives to get to less than 70% full.
• Install Aperture 3 and set it to use your existing Library on the internal drive.
• Back up the Library with its Masters to another Vault on an external drive. Do not delete or over-write the first Vault you made; this second Vault is a redundant copy of the same Library but after conversion to Aperture 3. Probably you will never need either Vault but it is good to be careful.
• Use Aperture 3's tools to reconfigure your Library to be a *Referenced-Masters Library* on the internal drive with the Masters referenced on external drives.
• In the future back up Masters before import into Aperture or any other images management application. Then with the new Masters on external drives select Store Files: "In their current location" from the import window when importing into Aperture. This will maintain a *Referenced-Masters Library*. Routinely create Vaults to back up the Library.

Why can't I sync more than one computer? This is a serious design flaw.

I have a macbook and so does my wife. So, who gets to sync and who ends up in the streaming ghetto? This is a pretty crappy design choice. We should both be able to sync to a combined library on the appletv so that we don't have to fight over who gets a less convenient experience on the appletv.
You can call it the "marriage saver".

You just need to get two Apple TV's and perhaps an HDMI switch so you can easily go back and forth between the two without having to buy another TV. Instead of getting a switch one person could use HDMI and the other could use component output but that might cause some problems as well. If you're only going to use Synching then AppleTV looks just like an iPod and you both need one of your own. It really isn't as ridiculous as it sounds since it's $50 cheaper than the 80GB video iPod.
Maybe you should both agree to stream. It works really well. Perhaps set up a common iTunes to synch from. Good luck .. I've got similar issues with both kids and wife! So I've an AppleTv in the Den for the kids (synched with Kids stuff) and in the Family room we have another AppleTV synched with more grown up stuff. To go back and forth we just stream to the other library.

I am being told I am 'over quota' and this software will not open my trash. I have been trying to copy things off my inboxes to trash and then to the archives.

I cannot open my trash, it says it is now 'over quota'. I cannot even received emails if they are sent there!
I have been trying to make my settings higher in the 'advanced' menu to no avail.
I have been trying to move emails out of my INBOX to the trash and then to Archive subfolders but evidently EVERYTHING falls under this 'quota'. What the hell can I do? This is ridiculous, obscure and a terrible and extremely user-unfriendly software.

What is the exact error message?
Where is the message from, your email provider, or Thunderbird?
What is your account type, POP or IMAP?

Finder error -36 when transferring some sparse images over 100GB+

Hi,
I'm currently backing up sparseimages of different sizes onto backup hard drives for video editing.
I'm using the latest iMac with Mountain Lion.
I use Sparseimages in order to seperate FCPX projects (best way to keep organised so far in my opinion).
Although with the amoung of footage and size of files, I need to backup them up on different drives every so often to free up some space for myself.
While transfering the backups I noticed the error -36 would happen on the finder for some files. Specifically the larger ones sized 100GB+.This is for my work and is VERY important. So whoever can find me a good fix or explanation for this issue, will have my greatest gratitude!
Now before I get bombarded by questions and abused by "its already been covered - google is your friend", here are the setup and the things I found out about the issue:
iMac w/ OSX 10.8
- Thunderbolt to Drobo 5D (with 5x 3TB drives)
- USB 3.0 Startech Dock for 3.5" Sata hard drives - I'm using a WD 3TB internal drive on the dock
1. In most cases transfering a file between the following locations causes the WD drive to eject and the finder to create a -36 error:
(In every case, smaller sparseimages are copied just fine - anything 100GB+ just ejects the disk and causes the error)
- Drobo 5D to WD - Ejection + Error -36
- iMac Fusion Drive to WD - Ejection + Error -36
- Drobo 5D to iMac Fusion drive: NO ERROR
Now before you go and say that it may be an issue with the particular drive i'm using in the dock; I've swapped the WD drive I want to copy the files on with another WD drive and managed recreated the same error.
I've used Carbon Copy Cloner and got an error saying I shouldn't modify or change the disk while transfering when attempting to transfer the larger files.
I did find a way around it, but it's really long and would take days to do. It's to create a new sparseimage on the desktop and transfer all the content of the old sparse into the new one then transfer the new sparse into the WD docked drive. For some reason... that works, although, generally it takes a few hours to transfer one of the 100GB+ sparses, and having to copy the entire content onto the desktop then yet again copy it to the WD drive seems lenghty and unecessary. There MUST be a fix, I'm sure there's a way around it. Otherwise I'm stuck for the next few weeks with transfering alone
Thanks in advance for help!
Luke

Sorry, I see what you mean, although I'm having difficulty figuring out which one it could be for the following reasons:
1) Corrupt Directory:
The sparse images in question, the ones giving me the errors, mount fine if I run them directly from the Drobo 5D. They also can be transfered successfully to the desktop and can run from there too. But transfering to the 3.0 USB dock causes the error.
2) Failing Disk:
I've used a different 2 different hard drives in the same dock and tried to transfer the same sparse images... but no luck! Although copying it straight onto the deskop is fine. So the drive hasn't failed.
So that's why I reckon it has something to do with transfering large files to the Dock.
Any suggestions will help! It could be the docking station but I thought it could maybe be the OS handling the large files the wrong way or perhaps an issue with USB 3.0? I don't know...
NOTE: There are generally no errors, I can transfer many many files and folder at a time without an issue. It is ONLY when the file is very large and transfering that it EJECTS the drive and causes the -36 error
UPDATE:
Just saw your update! Will do a block test on the drive now, although, as I mentioned early on this comment, it seems to be that the other drives I used have the same problem.
Also, I was wrong, it's Seagate drives I'm using, if that makes any difference?
So many drives here, I'm getting confused! hehe

Over 100GB!! Is this Accurate I seriously doubt it...
