Please help!-I deleted the master file

Ok. for the first time I accidentally deleted a sitting from the original file folder. It's not anywhere, not trash, I searched the entire computer, etc.
Is there a way to restore it thru lightroom? I still have the lightroom files but of course they say the filename "IMG_0558" is offline or missing.
Please help. I can't call this client with this huge mistake.

Yes, that is what I normally do. However, this week I lost contact with one entire side of my family due to mental illness (not mine), and then my grandmother passed away as well. Her funeral was just yesterday. This doesn't excuse my failure to back up again but I was no mind to be handeling files and I should not have been. I should have gone to bed instead. I am a responsible photographer, this has never happened in 13 years. I've just had the worst week of that 13 years almost.
It's my own fault, and a mistake that I made. I just need help in trying to fix it if possible.
I'm trying the restoration programs now.

  • Can I configure to always delete the master file?

    Hi!
    If I want to delete a file, I don't just remove it from the cataloge, but to delete the master file, too.
    If I use the remove key, I get the (annoying) pop up, what I want to do: (sorry, I've a german version, so I just try to translate it)
    Delete from hard disk
    Remove (default selected)
    Cancel
    Is there any chance to avoid this dialog? Or at least to chance the preselected button, so I've just to use the enter key?
    Actually I've to
    press delete
    press left arrow key
    press enter
    That is a little bit annoying and error-prone
    Thanks a lot!
    P.S.: I just found out, that ALT+DELETE is a shurtcut to remove the file from the catalog. So it would be greate to have a similar shurtcut to delete the file from the filesystem.

    Thanks!
    But it is almost the same as CTRL+ALT+DELETE, which has a special meaning in Windows :-(
    So there is no way, to get a delete action, that easiliy deletes, without pressing four keys in parallel? :-|
    Perhaps, the developers of Lightroom could provide an option, so you get the pop up, but the default action is different. That would be really great.

  • I can't delete the master file, which is located on my external HD, through aperture

    I import a folder to aperture which is stored on my external HD, and keep the originals on the HD.  If I try to delete a master file with the option, file-delete master image and all versions, the photo deletes from Aperture, but not my hard drive.  I have even tried to delete my trash, but no luck.  Please help, otherwise I do not want to use aperture for file management, which was one of my major reasons for buying it.

    After you've deleted a file it from the project it goes into Aperture Trash. When you empty Aperture Trash (Aperture>Empty Aperture Trash) you will get a dialogue box asking "Are you sure you want to permanently delete all items in the Trash?" Under this there is a checkbox giving you the option to "Move referenced files to System Trash". If you check this box it will move the master to the system trash, and from there you can permanently delete the file.
    All this is to stop you from accidentally deleting work.

  • I have deleted the .layout files.... HELP PLEASE...??

    Hello everybody,
    I have joined the forum yesterday, new to Final Cut Studio. I studied the manuals and understood them to a considerable extent. I am a maths teacher and I video myself teaching maths and science at my home (Sony DSR 450 & Sony PD 170), in my small studio. I make educational DVDs using iDVD. It worked very well for some time. Then I bought Final Cut Studio and experimented with DSP. While creating more space in the hard disc, accidentally I thrashed the .layout files. Now whatever the project I do, while formating I get a message saying "The source file does not come with the .layout files...etc". I have tried encoding outside DSP in compressor and the imported into DSP.It was't helpful. I re-installed Finalcut studio.....it's of no use. In the forum someone suggested to by YANK. Now I am not able to procede with any new project as I cannot Build or format..........Completely stuck. Help me please.
    Original clips are imported from DVCAM using DSR11 VTR.
    kind regards

    Are you using a premade template, from a prior project that you deleted the .layout files from?
    If so, try creating a compleatly new project from scratch, (nothing to complicated, just a menu and any of the assets that were in the original project, that were giving you issues. Try an build this new project.
    If the project does build, then the other project file, (that was giving you trouble, may have a damaged or corrupt project file, but in any case, this shouldn't have been caused by the deletion of the .layout files. What may be going on here is that the iMovie source, (you originally used) may have been using these .layout files and when removed, DVD SP couldn't find them and this may have cause the issues you are seeing.
    Creating a new project from scratch, in DVD SP will sever all links to the iMovie projects. Also, when you say you exported out of FCP, you need to remember that there is a good work flow you should follow and that there are many ways of exporting and encoding assets from FCP to DVD SP.
    Here is my work flow:
    When the FCP project is ready for export, here is what I do.
    Export using the Quicktime Movie, (NOT Quicktime convertion) and un-check the make self contained movie box. This creates a reference movie that contains all of the changes you made to the original movie, (edits, transitions, audio/video levels, etc.) but still uses the original movie assets you captured from your DV source, (save disk space and exports much quicker.)
    Open Compressor and encode you project to Mpeg 2, (using one of the premade Apple settings for video) and AC3, (using A.Pack or if you are using Compressor 2, the Dolby audio option.) What this does, is give you a set of self contained assets you can import into DVD SP, that do not depend on any of the FCP assets to work and will also speed up the build process.
    Next, import the Mpeg 2, (.m2v file) and AC3, (audio file) into DVD SP as your DVD project assets and author you project as usual.
    Once your satisfied with your project, run the build, (not the build/format button.) If you do it this way, then you have the opportunity to preview you project in the Apple DVD player software on you computer, (using the VTS Folder import of the DVD player menu) before commiting it to disk. This alllows you to make sure everything works correctly, before burning media. If it builds ok, then click on the format button and burn your disk.
    Let me know how it goes?

    Hi Friends...
    I’m trying to delete a back-up file on mu TC but I get the message “The operation could not be completed because the item “bands” is in use. I’d like to start the Back from scratch, could help me out with deleting the current file?

    Sorry, I am very confused. I asked the following question....
    Is this the only backup file on your Mac, or do you have other backup files and data on the Time Capsule disk?
    The answer that you gave was....
    This is the only one
    Now you are saying that....
    But I have lots of other files on Time Capsule! The back up file is only one of them.
    Can you clarify, please?

  • Every time I sign in, it signs me out immediately. I've tried deleting the opm file and it's unable to do so because "Adobe CC is currently running this file." I've also changed my LAN settings and downloaded something else that was supposed to help me ou

    Every time I sign in, it signs me out immediately. I've tried deleting the opm file and it's unable to do so because "Adobe CC is currently running this file." I've also changed my LAN settings and downloaded something else that was supposed to help me out but nothing seems to fix the problem.

    I think you'll find that the official Adobe advice here is misguided.  First, deleting bits of the program and program data is, as you've noted, perilous and often impossible.  Shame on Adobe for doing such a poor job of coding that such steps are needed.
    The solution I recommend is as follows:
    Restart your Windows machine and boot in "Safe Mode" with networking using the F8 key just as Windows starts.
    Go to the Control Panel and select Programs. Find and Uninstall "Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop". 
    Reinstall it by downloading it from the website  https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
    Restart your machine.
    Only in "Safe Mode" are you likely to be able to accomplish these tasks reliably.

    QuickTime is a requirement for Premiere Elements (any version). Please download and install it so that we can continue this troubleshooting. Among other things, without QuickTime installed, you will not have QuickTime presets in Publish+Share and will not have available to you codecs supplied by that player.
    Please right click the Premiere Elements 11 desktop icon and apply Run As Administrator. Please review computer permissions..
    In the meanwhile, please reply to all the questions, including
    What is the description for your export choice and does it make a difference if your Export Save In location is the desktop or to Video Folder in Documents?

  • Rename, than delete the old file!

    Hy to all. I have an application which searches all the .txt files from a directory, than modify it's content, creates new file with the name of the old one + .tmp ending, then copies the modified content to is, deletes the old files and renames the new ones to the name of the old ones. My problem is that the renaming and delete does not work.can u help me with??? Some code please.Thanks!

    No, you provide your code. Use the CODE button or [code] and [/code] tags to make it readable.
    Provide just an SSCCE, as nobody wants to read through an entire application just to find problems with file manipulation.
    And describe precisely what "doesn't work." means.

  • I deleted the preview files and now the sequence on the timeline is missing

    I deleted the preview files to save disk space by doing Sequence/ delete render files, now the sequence on the timeline window is missing. what can i do te recover the already assembled sequence on the timeline?
    Help please!!!
    Elio

    First, are you sure that you deleted the Preview files, and not your media files? Can you check in Windows Explorer, that your media files are still where you had them?
    Next, if it was the former, and not the latter, this should not happen. Did PrPro give you any sort of message, when you loaded your Project? Something like "where is file xxxx.AVI?"
    There are instances where Sequence Timelines do not appear in the Timeline Panel. I'd not think that this would be one of those instances, but... is your Sequence still showing in the Project Panel? What happens if you Dbl-click on it there?
    Do start checking the sales for hard drives. Editing video without enough hard drive real estate is asking for problems. It will be money well-spent.
    Good luck,

  • How to delete the Generated files from application server(open hub)?

    hi experts,
    when i try to execute process chain the DTP it is giving below dump. Exception CX_RSBK_REQUEST_LOCKED logged.
    when i execute the DTP manually and trying to delete the previous request, it is giving for dump ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY.
    so to delete the generated file from application server, how to delete it for specific dates?
    Information on where terminated
    Termination occurred in the ABAP program "GPD6S3OE0BCVGC6L9DBNVYQARZM" - in
    "START_ROUTINE".
    The main program was "RSBATCH_EXECUTE_PROZESS ".
    In the source code you have the termination point in line 2874
    of the (Include) program "GPD6S3OE0BCVGC6L9DBNVYQARZM".
    The program "GPD6S3OE0BCVGC6L9DBNVYQARZM" was started as a background job.
    and when i check the dump it is point out at below code
    " Populate the lookup table for 0STOR_LOC
    SELECT * from /BI0/TSTOR_LOC
    into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF table L_0STOR_LOC_TEXT
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN SOURCE_PACKAGE WHERE
    STOR_LOC = SOURCE_PACKAGE-STOR_LOC.
    but the programme is syntactically correct only.
    how to rectify the issue.

    hi experts,
    We have written start routine to get the storage location text and sending to File located at Application server through OPEN HUB.
    here is the code written in the Transformations
    In the global section
    Text for 0STOR_LOC
        DATA: l_0stor_loc_text TYPE HASHED TABLE OF /bi0/tstor_loc
              WITH UNIQUE KEY stor_loc.
        DATA: l_0stor_loc_text_wa TYPE /bi0/tstor_loc.
    and in the code to get the text
    " Populate the lookup table for 0STOR_LOC
        *SELECT * from /BI0/TSTOR_LOC*
          into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF table L_0STOR_LOC_TEXT
          FOR ALL ENTRIES IN SOURCE_PACKAGE WHERE
                  STOR_LOC = SOURCE_PACKAGE-STOR_LOC.
    im sure there is problem with the Routine only. i think i need to change the code if so please provide me the modified one.
    thanks
