Project Settings on Network Drive

Hi Folks,
I just got my Buffalo Link Station and I came up with an FCP-question.
In order for me to access my projects from all my computers in my network I wanted to copy the "Final Cut Projects" Folder to the shared drive. Will that chance the performance of FCP in any way? I know that I can't work in one project from two computers, but that won't be the problem.
Just wanted to know if there are any problems with running the projects off a network drive.
Thanks for your help

I just wanted the project settings on the network
The project's settings are part of the project file. You can store the project file on a network drive, but it would be better to copy it to the computer you're working on or on the external drive that the media is stored ... since you'll have to have that drive connected to the working computer anyway.

Flash Builder 4 super slow when Workspace and Project is on Network Drive

Hi I was wondering if maybe it is not common practice to create a workspace and project in a Network Drive? When I do this Flash Builder runs extremely slow ( build workspace slow, saving slow, code hinting slow, undo slow, etc, etc, etc). Very painful!
When I place the same project locally on my C drive everything runs fine. So should I not be running things off the network? I would really like to since all my files are on the network with backup system. Can anyone offer some advice? Or maybe I need to optimize something? Thanks
- D

Hi.
Having your workspace and project on a network drive is not recommended as Flash Builder writes and reads a lot from the workspace and that will be slow.
A version control system such as svn or git with a repository hosted on your network drive should be perfectly fine. (You only take the hit when you check in and check out)

Robohelp 9.0.2 Access Project Files from Network Drive or SharePoint

Hello everyone!
I was wondering if anyone has suggestions for the following scenario:
Mutliple content authors traveling around the world need to access centrally place project files.
I know using a network drive is a bad practice, and I've been testing it with little luck today. Has anyone used SharePoint to house projects in the past?
What is the best way to share these projects on a network? It's becoming very necessary for us to do so, and I was wondering if anyone has had any success.
Ideas anyone?
Thanks!
Jerry

Hi Jerry
Assuming SharePoint can function as a Source Control system it should work. Note that Source Control systems perform a variety of tasks. Librarian, Traffic Cop, etc.
With any Source Control system the files are centrally located. They have to be, no? But in my experience, you configure each of them in a similar manner. You designate a "Working Folder" that is on your local C drive. As you check files out and work on them, they are copied to your working folder. When you check them in, they are copied back to the server and updated. So you are working locally but the content is centrally located. Assuming SharePoint works that way, it should work for you.
Cheers... Rick

Error saving Project 2010 files to network drive - doesn't see network drive

ANSWERED (11 April 2014):
So it seems the resolution to this is to simply create a new share with a different name. I used the existing folder (to retain NTFS permissions) and just select to Add a new Share (applying the same Share permissions as the non working Shares).
Deploying this new Share via Group Policy as a test resulted in staff being able to open files from Windows Search, save files through MS Project and the Share being accessible through browsing SMB.
All problems resolved by using a new share name for the existing folder. Seems to be a corruption in the namespace.
Note: I had previously deleted the share and recreated it. I had removed all NTFS permissions and readded (through both the GUI and icacls). This didn't make a difference.
Only changing the name of the share fixed the problem.
Original Question
Already
posted here... but Microsoft Support has not responded.
It seems some staff on some computers are having problems saving MS Project files to the network. This is only since an upgrade to SBS2011 (from SBS2003). The only difference now, is that network drives are mapped via group policy rather than a 'net
use' script.
This is affecting users on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, with either MS Project 2007 or 2010. The users have full change access to the folders and can create new files and modifying existing files, just not a MS Project file. Other file tyes, e.g
Word .docx, Excel .xlsx, Adobe .pdf files, all work fine. These files can be opened, edited and saved normally without problem.
To replicate this:
The user opens an existing file or creates a new file on the network folder (either through Windows Explorer or MS Project). They then click File > Save in MS Project and receive the following error (see pic below):
An interesting symptom of this is that if you select File > Save As in MS Project, the Sae As dialog box doesn't remeber the path location of the network drive. MS Project instead prompts to save the file in the local users documents folder (see pic below):
If they browse back to the original folder where the file was saved and choose to save it there, they are of course, prompted to overwrite the existing file and they can save the file. But the same thing happens every time they open the file.
It seems the problem is that Project isn't seeing the path of the file or that the network drive is attached.
If a user closes the file without saving it, they are prompted to save the file and the prompt shows the drive path:
Do you want to save changes to "N:\... Projects\Active Projects\CC...\F4 Project Plan File\004 Programme\test project file.mpp"?
But choosing to save the file gives them the same result as Save As, they are prompted for a new location as if the original file location doesn't exist.
I have disconnected the mapped drive and connected it again using net use but get the same error.
I have reinstalled MS Project 201, installed Project 2010 SP2 and installed Windows updates and it does the same thing, exactly the same symptoms.
Further, if the user opens a file from the network drive, the file shows in the Project recent files list. If they try to open the file from the recent files list in project they get the following error:
"Project cannot open the file.
-Check that the file name and path are correct.
-Check that the file format is recognized by Project.
Project files saved in a version earlier than Microsoft Project 98 can't be opened...."
This is a test file that I created on the user's computer and network drive, This is being opened with the same version it was created in. If I browse to the folder in Windows Explorer I can open the file. Of course, I then can't save the file (I still get
the original error). I'm logged on with Domain Admin privileges.
I've checked these links from other threads (neither apply to my scenario):
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/983458/en-us|
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/excel/thread/2eeea140-7e6c-4cb9-a89b-06d2102bd9f7/
I've downloaded my TechNet version of he software and installed it with Sp2 and Windows updates and it does the same thing. This also happens on the Remote Desktop server (Server 2008 R2) using MS Project 2007.

Case 1
This error message appears when the document is open on two or more computers that are running different operating platforms. For example,
if the document is open on a Macintosh computer and you open it on a second computer running Windows or Windows NT, the error occurs when either user tries to save the document.
This problem stems from a difference between the ways Macintosh OLE and Windows OLE open files. As a result, you cannot save a file on two different operating platforms at the same time.
Case 2
This error occurs in Word 97 for Windows if you save to a MAPROOT type network drive connection on a NetWare server where spaces exist in
the file or folder name.
Case 3
This problem may occur if an anti-virus program running on a network has the ability to scan for macro viruses in documents in shared network
folders.
For example, if you have the following:
a shared folder on a network server
-and-
an anti-virus program is running on the network server that is set to monitor the shared folder,
when you attempt to save a document (across the network) to the shared folder, the anti-virus checker may cause the error to occur.
Case 4
This problem may occur on Novell networks when the AutoRecover files path is either blank or set to a network drive.
According each, please try the following workaround:
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods appropriate to your situation.
Case 1
Method 1:
Move the document to your local hard disk for editing. Move it back to the server after you finish.
Method 2:
Save a copy of the
file with a different
file name, and work on the copy, either on your hard disk or on the server.
Case 3
Method 1:
Move the document to your local hard disk for editing. Move it back to the server after you finish.
Method 2:
Do not use spaces in the directory or document names.
Method 3:
Do not use MAPROOT-drive connections. Map your drive connections to the volume-level only.
Case 4
Turn off the anti-virus protection on the network server and then try to
save the document. Contact your anti-virus protection software company for additional details and/or updates to their programs.
Case 5
Set the AutoRecover files path to your local drive. To change the AutoRecover path, use the following steps:
1.
On the Tools menu, click Options.
2.
On the File Locations tab, select AutoRecover files and then click Modify.
3.
Change the Modify Location dialog box to a
folder on your local drive and then click OK.
4.
Click OK to close the Options dialog box.
Hope that helps.

I can't map a network drive from Windows 7, using the exact same settings that work fine with Vista or XP

I have Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium,and I can't map a network drive. I use a Cisco VPN client to connect to my University network, and then when I go to map the drive I get a message that it can't be found. I have done web research it seems that I am unable to edit the local security settings (apparently you can do this in Ultimate and Professional versions), and that this may be the culprit. Does Microsoft make some patch available? My IT people, and the tech help at HP are baffled by this. If Windows 7 Home Premium does not allow for mapping of network drives, then I'm dumping it and returning to Vista. Has anybody had similar problems?

Day 2 of trying to map a drive in Windows 7 Professional:
My journey to ____..
Begins:
I purchased Windows 7 Home 3xuser license pack for ~140 US I kep hearing friend sayhow much faster it was than Vista 32bit so I thought hey let’s “upgrade”
.. I looked up the definition of the word “upgrade” the following is what I found:
1.
To exchange a possession for one of greater value or quality; trade up.
2.
Computer Science
To replace software or hardware with an upgrade.
3.
Computer Science
a.
To replace (a software program) with a more recently released, enhanced version.
b.
To replace (a hardware device) with one that provides better performance.
So we,re all clear on what an upgrade is suppose to be. I wanted tomake sure I understood before I proceeded.
I installed a copy on my latptop Toshiba Centrino 1.83 Ghz/3 G Ram decent computer for all intent and purposes. It’s been working fine
on Vista but running slow. So I went through MS “requirements checking” to determine if my computer passed the MS test and worth of such the honor and also get MS’s blessing before I moved forward with the “upgrade”.
I proceeded with the upgrade went relatively smoothly had to uninstall a few programs but I figure that’s such a
small price to pay for such great enhancement that I will receive from my “upgrade”. Approximately 4 to 5 hours later after minimal reboots I was all set to go with my new upgraded OS. It was working as prescribed faster than Vista cleaner
interface sorta, helpful little taskbar gadgets. I was stoked that night I went to be thinking I will go to work and be a rock star on my brand newly “upgraded” computer.
Oh and by the way, I was so thrilled about Windows 7 I even upgrade my home computer as well.
I go into work and I have a very big user migration that night, I am an network engineer and I use my laptop for work I use Visio, Wireshark
and others, all the tools that help us do our job efficiently and effectively.
I sit down turn on my computer it boots faster than Vista and I’m just chomping at the bit to get going have lots of work to do. So let
go back for a minute an look at the definition of “upgrade”
“3.
Computer Science
a.
To replace (a software program) with a more recently released,
enhanced version.
b.
To replace (a hardware device) with one that provides
better performance.”
So were good on what upgrade is?
I have my computer up I have logged in (locally) not on a domain as I was not when I was on Vista OS. I wanted to attach the server to get some
files so I go to map a drive………………. Hmmmph ….. that’s weird I cannot map a drive …… let’s try this again……… hmmmph…. what this domain thing going here I
never need that before in the lesser product Vista but ok I’ll add my
\\servername\folder and my domain.org\username..... hit enter and hmmmmmph …. It ask me for my password again.. well I could have fat gingered it so I’ll type it in reallllllllly slow.. hmmmmmmph ….. again no such luck…
So I decide consult a colleague of mine who recommended I “upgrade” to Windows 7. After speaking with me he tells me oh! You need
Windows 7 Professional to do the same things you did in Vista home … I’m perplexed by this but let’s once more take a look at the word “upgrade” to “enhance
and/or make better
”. So now I’m a little perturbed by this little bit of information but I suck it up and decide I’ll drop another ~100.00 US on an “upgrade” to Professional small price to pay for such a great product.. I mean have
you seen those commercial WOW!
I make my purchase download and once “upgrade” to new “upgrade” with even more improvement over Vista and XP I mean
with those two OS’s it took me all of 5 second to map a drive SURELY Windows 7 Professional will map a drive like no one business.
After
few reboots my computer has been fully “upgraded” and ‘upgrade” again to W7 Pro and I’m off to the races ready to get to work cause my migration will be starting in a few hours and I want to be prepared. Sytsem reboots quickly
I’m logged and ready to start getting my information I so desperately need. I go to map my drive I figure I’ll help W7Pro out I’ll be proactive and use “domain.org\username” that way W7Pro
will like me and think oh! this man is brilliant. I hit enter with my correct password that I type realllllly slow. …… waited it’s thinking for sure this is it .. the anticipation is killing me the excitement is overwhelming …….
THUD my world just came crashing down ..no luck .. no login ..no mapping drives…I’m now on hour 6 of this ridiculous journey to the “upgrade” to “upgrade” ____. So now I’m left to forum because MS surely does not
think I am going to pay them $275.00 and hour for support on something that should have work right out of the box.
So I’m on day to I have tried everything on this forum page to get my mapped drive to work with nothing working for me. It appears that
if I want to use my computer I will have to rolled back to the lesser (Vista).
Just in case you’re wondering how I made it through the user migration. I had my co-worker bring me my XP computer worked like it’s
was suppose to.

Possible to locate Event & Project Libraries on Network Shared Drives?

My iMovie is running on a Mac Mini.. but I have all my media (iTunes, iPhoto, wish to have iMovie too) stored on large drives attached to a G5 via eSATA and shared on the network over Gigabit Ethernet.
The drives on the G5 show up on iMovie Event Library but not on Project Library.. cannot drag any events into the shared drives from within iMovie (have little yellow triangle with exclamations on them)
The internal drive and any USB drives directly attached to the Mac Mini do allow dragging to though.
is this the limitation.. are the only drives the eligible to locate Event and Project Libraries internal and drives directly attached to the computer running iMovies? That would be a shame.. the eSATA drive shared over GigE have a much higher transfer rate than any USB 2.0 drives that are attached to my Mac Mini..
any help will be appreciated..

Got my answer..
NOTE: To use an external hard disk with iMovie, it must be formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). *iMovie doesn’t support network-attached storage* or external flash memory drives.

Cannot Start a new project with a mapped network drive

When I try to start a new project with Encore and save the file to our network cluster (An Isilon Server), I get a file not found error message. When I try to do this to a local drive, it works just fine. None of the other Adobe products (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects) have this problem with this network drive.
Greg Glaser

Yes, it worked on the local drive, and also to a Windows Networked Server that was not the Isilon. Even after creating the project and moving it to the Isilon, it was generating error messages after a few minutes of use. The Isilon is using a BSD variant of Linux and Samba. The really strange part is the all other Adobe products from the Production Suite work with this server without any problems at all.

Encore Project Settings and Encoded file is less in Encore than on my Drive.

Hi,
Before Encoding my Premiere Pro timeline in Media Encoder, I had set up my all my menus and all my assets in Encore CS 5.1. After I had done all that, I pressed the "Build button and it said I had around 23 GB left (I am making a Blu-Ray DVD)
So I went back to Premiere Pro CS 5.5 and Encoded my Project through Media Encoder. I set it it H.264 Blu-Ray, PCM Audio, Target Bit Rate was 18.5 and Max Bit Rate was 20. The estimated file size said it was going to be around 23 GB. This was perfect.
So I encoded it and when it was done, on the Hard Drive, it was 23 GB, just like to was supposed to be.
I then imported it into my Encore project and put it on the timeline. I then looked at the Build tab to see how many GB I had left on the Disc. I wanted a little room.
It said I am only using just over 20 GB and have a little over 4 GB left to use..
Why would this happen? I now have more free space.
In Encore, I wento to File ------ Project Settings ------ Default Transcode settings ---- and that was set at:
Max Audio/Video
Codec MPEG 2
Bit Rate = 15 MBPS.
The Audio was on Dolby.
There was a drop down list, in the Bit Rate category, that I could have chosen to use 20 or 25. I left it at 15 for now.
If I go back and choose 20 or 25 would that make the encoding of my whole project (Menus and h.264 Blu-Ray) a little better quality than it is now? Will it increase the size of Encoded project so when I hit the Build tab again it will show I have less space available to use? I want to make the project as good as it can get without going over the 25 GB limit.
One other thing.
Wih my final project on the Encore Timeline, when I have the Sequence active, on the Project tab in Encore it reads: 19.1 GB Encoded (Audio and Video). the final encode is 23 GB. Why is it going down to 19?
The video looks good and I could burn it to a Blu-Ray now and it would look great. I just want to know if there is some way to make it a little better inside Encore without having to Encode my whole project at a higher Bit Rate knowing that It will be a little less when I bring it into Encore.
Thanks in advance
Premiere Pro CS 5.5
Media Encoder 5.5
Encore 5.1

Many issues in this; one problem is understanding file sizes and Encore's handling of project panel sizes and build panel sizes.
See post 7 here:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4838089#4838089
Regarding bitrate calculators and a shorthand method mentioned by Jeff Pulera, see his post 2 in that same thread. I see that it was regarding DVD; I wonder if someone has a shorthand like that for Bluray?

Trouble synching mapped network drive in Windows 8

Hello
I have recently bought a Sony Vaio Pro13 with Windows 8. I have also just upgraded to Windows 8.1. I have another laptop running windows 7 to which I have mapped the network drive at my place of work. On the W7 computer, files are available offline and I can
synchronize them without any problem using the VPN.
I mapped the network drive to my new laptop running windows 8 but only about half of the offline files were made available offline and it was not possible to synchronize. I then started again, by deleting the mapped drive, deleting the offline files in the
CSC folder, moved the folder elsewhere and increased the space available for offline files. I then successfully mapped the drive and copies of all offline files were available on the laptop (after about 2 hours of synchronizing!).
However, I have not been able to synchronize the files since. The VPN works for other things (e.g. subscription websites which need a VPN connection) but the network drive is showing as either offline, or when I try to synchronize, the process begins and then
I get a 'failed' message (currently 'the username or password is incorrect'). This can't be the case, or I wouldn't be on the VPN or accessing emails via Outlook - and in any case, it worked once with exactly the same credentials. I double checked in the windows
credentials as well. The sync centre also says that the drive is 'offline (background sync)'.
My IT administrators do not have any suggestions apart from removing 8 and installing 7 because they do not currently support Windows 8...
Do you have any suggestions as to why the VPN works, the files have been made available offline, but the networked drive will now not sync?
Thank you
Liz

Hi,
It appeared to be network issue, please try to update you NIC driver and then change power option of network adapter:
Open Network and Sharing Center.
Click the Change adapter settings link in the upper left of the navigation pane.
Right click the network connection you want to enable/disable power management support on and click Properties .
Click Configure .
On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box.
After these steps, turn off Firewall and please restart computer and check the issue again.
If it doesn’t work, please upload the screenshot of error message and event log here for further research.
Hope these could be helpful.

Is it possible to refer class files by mapping network drive?

Hi,
Is it possible to refer class files from the server(By mapping network of client's server) and specify this in project setting. If yes, how?
Right now I copied all class file needed, to 'myclasses' directory of jdevhome. this approach is working fine but the page is taking 20 to 30 minutes to refresh.
What could be probable reason for taking this much time to refresh a page? what could be alternative for this?
Will the mapping of drive and referring it will improve the performance?
I am connected to server through VPN and using Window based JDeveloper.
Regards,
Adarsh

Hi Adarsh,
For the first part of your query, You can create a new Library in Project Settings to refer to the server classes.
As for the performance issue, there could be many reasons. Do you really think class loading is the only reason for the same? You might want to check in the Log window as to which process is eating up your time before loading the page.

Unable to Open Project from a Networked computer

Hi All
We have just recently installed Robohelp V6 on a computer in
the office and after making sure that RoboSource is connected and
visible, I have come to my desktop machine and made sure that
1. I could connect to the Robohelp "Server"
2. that I could map to the drive that the project file
resided
3. that I could ping the "server" computer
All appears to be fine, except that when I try to open the
Project file from the "MAPPED" drive, I get the following error
msg:
"OPEN PROJECT WAS CANCELLED OR THE APPLICATION WAS UNABLE TO
LOAD THE DATABASE FOR: T:\Content\Grail2Aug07Help.cpd"
It is the Project file
grail2aug07help.xpj that I am trying to open.
The project WAS currently opened and in use my another person
on the "server" computer, so I wonder if this is the reason for the
message.??? If I cannot get the project opened. how do I then make
sure that files that I want to alter are "Checked In/Out" by me and
are also seen, by other users as being CHECKED OUT...??
PLEASE HELP..!!
Regards

Your project should live on a local drive (e.g., the My
Documents folder on your PC). Version control can live on a mapped
(i.e., network) drive.

thanks

Hi,
Is there any error message throwed when you reconnect the mapped drive? Can you directly access the UNC path of the mapped drive? What VPN programs do you use? Please check if the VPN client connect correctly.
You could refer to the thread below to check if the AD account is restricted by VPN.

Unable To See Network Drive from outside Home Network..even when using DynDNS

Hi
I have just got a Freecom Media storage Network Center which I have attached to my WRT150N router.
I am attemting to permit access to authorised users to files on the drive via the internet (presumably via ftp).
Here is what I have done:
Swiitched on DynDNS on the web admin page in the router (used DynDNS.com free service.
Obtained a user addess which is middle-earth.dyndns-home.com from DynDNS, which is linked to my Virgin Media IP
Switched on Port Range forwarding with
Ports 20-21 as ftp
Port 80 as http
Port 57 as DNS
Selected "both protocols"
Set the IP address to route to 192.168.1.42 - (this is the IP address which the web based software for the Network Drive reports as.
However the configuration of the TCP/IP protocol in PC attached by LAN cable to the router is "Obtain an IP address automatically" (i.e. dynamic?). If I change these settings and specify static IP addresses   will I not muck up internet connection to Virgin Media.
what I was hoping to acheive was typing     ftp:// middle-earth.dyndns-home.com
in the address bar would let me see the network drive from anywhere!
I have tried using DNS pinging on Ports 20, and 21 but that tells my ports are closed. i have also tried switching off my software firewall (Kaspersky) and the router firewall, but this does nothing.
What have I done wrong or no done!!
Thanks

I think the problem is solved.
The Freecom device needs to use a different part of its interface to be assigned a static IP address, which I have now done. At my last try it was visible from two independent views outside of my network.
On another front, I am appalled at Linksys or Cisco, who are not prepared to advice on getting more from their produicts if they are 'out of warranty'. The online chat tech said I could ring an 0871 premium line number in the UK. When I rang that, I was told as tthat as my unit is not faulty and was out of warranty I would have to use their pay per incident service.
That is not a way to deal with customers. When it comes to upgrading or replacing network equipment, I will look to a provider who is interested in their customers.

Copy a file from local drive to network drive!

The subject says it all but I'll explain. I have a web application that runs on a tomcat and mysql. I have a bunch of clients in a local network that uses the application.
Server is running Windows 2003 server and clients are running windows XP.
On a client request a file is created on the server in "temp" folder. The file name is "justAFile.txt".
On the client pc a folder "temp" is shared for reading/writing.
What I want is the server to take the IP address of the client, and then based on that address to copy the file "justAFile.txt" to it (for example "\\192.168.0.20\temp\" - that is the client address).
I have the address of the client:
String userAddress = request.getRemoteAddr();I use this code:
FileOutputStream outFile;
PrintStream p;
String bonFileName = (justAFile.txt");
String destinationFileWithPath = ("\\\\192.168.0.20\temp\\skladPrint\\"+bonFileName);
try {
    outFile = new FileOutputStream(destinationFileWithPath);
    p = new PrintStream( outFile );
    p.println ("a textto be written on a file");
    p.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
     %>Error writing to file<br><%
}This code can create a file on a local drive with no problems, but when I try on a network drive it fails. Even for testing purposes I set the shared folder to a maped drive "Z:", and again no luck.
I've spend all my day till now in reading articles in inet, but haven't found one that will solve the problem.
I also tried creating a batch file (exec.bat) that has in it:
move \temp\*.txt \\192.168.0.20\temp
and then executing it with:
String[] executeCommand1 = { "cmd.exe", "/c", "\\temp\\exec.bat" };
Process p1 = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(executeCommand1);
p1.waitFor();But again no luck. When I execute the file from command prompt, it moves the file to the shared folder, but when I start it from the java application with the posted code, it DOES NOT move the file...
Any help will be appreciated...

Try using the jCIFS project. This package allows you to access shared folders on a PC if you have a good username/password.

Hi, searched on google for long time and found nothing. I'm working in a small office (13 iMacs and Mac Pros) and the Finder have a strange behavior.
In my office, 12 iMacs and Mac Pro are using OS 10.6.8 to 10.8.3, and there is a server that contain a backup of every project and every user must save his project at the end of the day on the server. The server is a Mac Pro first generation with 8GB RAM running 10.7.5 server, and a 2TB HD that is shared with everyone.
When a user want to access a folder on the server drive, the windows of the folder randomly close.
For example : User A want to save his project in folder "Macintosh HD:Client X:Project Y" So User A open the remote "Macintosh HD", than "Client X" folder and "Project Y" folder, but "Project Y" close by itself. User A must reopen it from "Client X" folder. I have a lot of complain since it's irritating and a waste of time when you want to drag your document and the target folder close by itself. It's not a lost connection since the remote drive stay mounted. The problem was there when the server was running 10.6.8 and I tough that the upgrade to 10.7.5 server will solve that, but no luck. Since it's a 1st gen Mac Pro, we can't try 10.8
The problem affect client on every version os Mac OS, from 10.6.8 to 10.8.3
Any idea ?

What is your network drive attached to? Is it a NAS or a shared drive from another computer. Either way get it connected locally to a computer and you should be able to find a file undelete tool (there are even free ones) that can restore the files that you have deleted.
I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this thread for background. The thread may shed some light on exactly what you did wrong. ITunes shows all the copies of the files that are the same as each other. If you delete them all you end up with none.
