Publishing AIR file deletes original icon files

I have seeral Flash/AIR projects where I have selected app icons in the AIR Application and Installer Settings dialog. Every time I build the AIR file, the entire directory containing those icon files is deleted. The files correctly end up in the generated AIR file, but how do I keep it from deleting my originals every time?
If it matters, I store the icon images in a subdirectory under where the .fla and accompanying files live, like this:
MyProject/
    project.fla
    something.as
    project.swf
    AppIconsForAIRPublish/
        icon-128x128.png
        icon-32x32.png
        icon-16x16.png
        icon-48x48.png
Why does it delete the icons and the containing folder after building the .air file, and how can I prevent it?

Another thing I learned is that you might have the icon file embeded in the application somewhere and that removes it from the include in AIR package screen.That shows the same 303 error. See more detalis here : http://spy6.blogspot.com/2009/10/error-creating-air-file-303error-some.html

Deleting Original Video File

Once you import a video file into Encore and transcode it can you delete the original file and still build properly or will that cause a problem? I do understand that you will not be able to revert to original if you do this.

In theory it should, in practice it isn't, unfortunately. If at all, you should only delete the source files after you have successfully built/compiled the entire project. Just transcoding is not enough to correctly update the project and states of the assets. There's no guarantees, though, so in all fairness, if you're tight on space, simply getting yet another hardrive and keeping the sources around would be better.

Problem creating air file with missing icon files

Ok, I am trying to create an air file, and getting some errors.
First, I am trying to create the air file using:
C:\IBM\...\air\notifier>C:\air\sdk\bin\adt -package -storetype pkcs12 -keystore ../vl.pfx vl.air application.xml
My application.xml file for the icons appears as:
<icon>
<image128x128>resources/icons/vl128.png</image128x128>
<image48x48>resources/icons/vl48.png</image48x48>
<image32x32>resources/icons/vl32.png</image32x32>
<image16x16>resources/icons/vl16.png</image16x16>
</icon>
The file paths are configured as:
air/notifier
     application.xml
     main.html
air/resources/icons
     vl128.png
     vl16.png
     vl32.png
     vl48.png
I get the following error:
C:\IBM\workspace\VectorLiveWeb\WebContent\air\notifier\application.xml(19): error 303: Icon resources/icons/vectorlive128.png is missing from package
C:\IBM\workspace\VectorLiveWeb\WebContent\air\notifier\application.xml(20): error 303: Icon resources/icons/vectorlive48.png is missing from package
C:\IBM\workspace\VectorLiveWeb\WebContent\air\notifier\application.xml(21): error 303: Icon resources/icons/vectorlive32.png is missing from package
C:\IBM\workspace\VectorLiveWeb\WebContent\air\notifier\application.xml(22): error 303: Icon resources/icons/vectorlive16.png is missing from package
I tried using the -C command to include ../resources/icons/. - but still get the error, can anyone provide any assistance as to how I can make the .air file?
Thank you,
JJ

Unable to save Photoshop files in original folder: file disappears

Hi,
At random moments when I'm saving layered Photoshop CS5 files, a message pops up with the following text:
Could not save "\...\FileName..." because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary access privileges. Use the 'Properties' command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file.
Well the strange thing is that I'm the administrator, the only user of this PC and even when I set/check the properties of the folder containing the files this continues to happen. What is even more disturbing is that I have to save my file as a new file in a new location and when I check the original file, it is no longer in it's original folder.
I save all my files to the local HD and I use an external device to backup my files. I regularly get notices on my backup device telling me that various files were deleted, but will be kept until I need the room. These are files which I did not delete, they are files which I'm still working on.
I'm having to save to the original job folder first, save to the desktop when I get the notice saying I can't save, and then save back into the original folder when I can't save on the desktop anymore because of the same error message. I sometimes get a similar Adobe error message which is basically along the same lines, but I haven't noted the exact text yet.
Recently I closed a file which I had saved and when I needed to return to it, it was nowhere on my computer. I'm very organised about file saving, so it's not a matter of saving files in the wrong place.
I no longer run my back up continuously while I'm working because while it's great to have the peace of mind that I'm regularly backed up, my files can get up to 2GB in size and I think the backup running at the same time is slowing Photoshop processes down, so I most often pause it until I take a break. On this occasion, I had been running it while working (smaller file) and so I was able to retrieve an earlier version from my backup which saved me from having to re-do the job completely. I didn't get this problem when I was using CS5 on Vista, it's been since I've been using Windows7 and my back up drive.
I only recall having had this problem with PSDs, but that could just be because these files can take up to ten hours to complete and there's a higher chance of getting an error message over a longer period of time.
It doesn't happen very often by there has been the very rare occasion where two versions of exactly the same file have been visible in the original job folder (same name on both files). To check if files are where they're supposed to be or if they seem to exhist, I have to close the job folder and re-open it.
I'll disconnect my back up drive while I'm working and see how it goes. It's not ideal, but probably worth a try.
I don't know if there's a connection, but occasionally windows randomly sticks a lock on zipped folders which I create, regardless of the permissions I apply to the upper level folder they sit in. I'm told by a friend that it won't affect other people accessing these zipped folders from other machines. I don't know if that's the case, I always change the zipped folder's permission to include 'Users' and that makes the lock disappear.
I will run this file disappearance thing by Microsoft, but I thought I'd run it buy you guys first in case you can shed any light on it.
Meanwhile here are my specs. If you have any suggestions on how I can boost my computer's performance for large format print work in Photoshop I'd be happy to know. It's not bad now, but faster is always more pleasant:
DELL XPS 730X
Total amount of system memory 6.00 GB RAM

Thank you,
Charlie

A great first chapter Charlie. Can't wait for the rest of the book.
The only time I've had anything like this happen, was in a new build after hooking the drives from the old system, but the permissions really were screwed up, and it was a straight forward fix. Is the machine networked perhaps? The files open in another app? I expect you answered this already somewhere in your forum equivalent of War & Peace. ;-) The lads on the Premiere Pro hardware forum can be disparaging about Dell and HP machines, saying their proprietary hardware and software are inaccessible, so I wonder if it is something along those lines.
I’d definitely unhook the second drive as a starting point, or at least double/treble check its permissions.
The only other thing I can think of is changing the state of ‘Save as to original folder’ in Preferences > file handling, but this is all very tenuous and straw clutching.

How to replace m4a conversion files with original mp3 files in iTunes library to reduce disk space?

Hello
I have a rather large music collection most of which is in mp3 format and also kept in seperate folders to my iTunes music. I had iTunes set up copy media to iTunes folder as m4a so now have two sets of files which are now taking up a large proportion of my hard disk space. Is there an easy way to move my mp3 files into the Itunes folder to replace the copies then delete the copied files.
Many thanks

By m4a are we talking compressed AAC? Those don't take up any more room than the equivalent mp3 and probably give you better quality.
Are you positive those files are m4a? If iTunes is set to copy media when you add it to the library I don't think it converts. It only converts when you import.
Since we're not talking replacing mp3s with mp3s I don't know if there is an way to more or less invisibly replace the files. If you were replacing a file with one of identical file name, you can trick iTunes into accepting it. Since the new files end in mp3 and the old ones in m4a I suspect you will end up having to add the new files and delete the others. This will of course mean you have to rebuild playlists and update tags. Before you delete the old copy you can use Dougscript "Copy Tag Info Tracks To Tracks" to transfer some of the tag information that you might wish to retain such as playcount, ratings, last played, etc.

Delete specific attachment file through Conversion Channel ?

version : iMS5.2 sp1
O/S : Solaris 2.6 Generic_105181-29
I wanted to delete specific attachment file(ex: ALTDESK.ZIP) through Conversion Channel.
So I set up like below..
1) In mappings file
=================
CONVERSIONS
IN-CHAN=tcp_intranet;OUT-CHAN=tcp_local;CONVERT Yes
==============
I only want to delete attached file from tcp_intranet to tcp_local.
2) msg-INSTANCE/imta/config/conversions
example mail header ::
--- omit ----

if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "STATUS=178030178" >> $OUTPUT_OPTIONS
else
cp $INPUT_FILE $OUTPUT_FILE
fi
=========================
4) The problems I face are
- All of zip files which are filtered is deleted. As you can see 2) I only want to delete ALTDESK.ZIP file
But, all of the zip-compressed files are deleted at the moment.
- This converison channel is work(even if all zip-compressed files are deleted). But sometimes this is not
working(2 or 3 times out of 10). I don not know why.
- Above all, I am not sure 2) and 3) settings are good. English is a second language to me. So it was
not easy to understand conversion channel setting in Admin Guide.
- How can I see the out put of "$OUTPUT_OPTIONS" ? I do not know where I can see that.
Is there anybody to help me ?

The section of the admin guide which can help is:
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6009-10/channel2.htm#42283
Here there is an explanation of how the mime headers of the message part would align with the entries one would put into the conversions file entry. (The document has an error where it talks about APPARENT_NAME and APPARENT_FILENAME. It should really say the words "NAME" and "FILENAME" respectively).
Based on that document, the MIME headers of your message part :
Content-Type: application/x-zip-compressed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=ALTDESK.ZIP
will align with a conversions file settiong of:
in-channel=tcp_intranet; out-channel=tcp_local;
in-type=application; in-subtype=x-zip-compressed;
parameter-symbol-0=NAME; parameter-copy-0=*;
dparameter-symbol-0=FILENAME; dparameter-copy-0=*;
message-header-file=2; original-header-file=1;
override-header-file=1; override-option-file=1;
command="/product/leeky/convert.sh"
and a /product/leeky/convert.sh script which reads something like:
#!/bin/sh
grep "$FILENAME" /product/leek/badfiles.list
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "STATUS=178030178" >> $OUTPUT_OPTIONS
else
grep "$NAME" /product/leek/badfiles.list
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "STATUS=178030178" >> $OUTPUT_OPTIONS
else
cp $INPUT_FILE $OUTPUT_FILE
fi
fi
The lines:
parameter-symbol-0=NAME; parameter-copy-0=*;
dparameter-symbol-0=FILENAME; dparameter-copy-0=*;
tells the conversion channel to make the environment variable $NAME avaliable to your program with a value corresponding to the "name=" clause on the Content-Type line of the MIME headers. The environment variable $FILENAME is made avalable to your program and takes on the value extracted from the filename=" clause on the content-disposition line of the MIME headers.
The document at :
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6092-10/conversion.html
may help provide other examples.

Deleting original images in referenced library

Stupid question - but how do you delete original images in a referenced library? I have used the function "File>Delete original image and all versions" and I thought that this had permanently deleted some originals that I didn't want - but when I look in finder, they're still there on the hard drive, they just don't display any more in Aperture. I can't believe you have to go and find the original file in finder to delete it...? What have I missed?
Thanks!

OK, have worked out that when I empty the aperture trash I need to tick the little box that says 'move referenced files to system trash' or something like that...
So...next question: how do I get the files that I've failed to delete properly back into Aperture so I can delete them properly - given that I don't know what files they are...

I have an alias of one of my external hard drives in my trash. When I click on "show original" all my external H D 's and my Mac hard drive show up. How do I delete this icon from the trash without loosing all my files?

I have an alias of one of my external hard drives in my trash. When I tried to delete it, it showed that I was deleting 80,000 files and counting. I stopped the delete process and when I clicked on "show original" all my external H.D.'s and my Mac hard drive show up. How do I delete this alias from the trash without loosing all my files? When I tried to drag it back to the desk top, it just made a duplicate and remained in the trash. When I turned off the external H.D., the trash was then empty. Tried rebooting the computer and then turning the external hard drive back on and the alias shows up in the trash again. Much help appreciated.
Rich

In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
If it does contain data...

How to delete Icon file in Safari folder?

In Safari v2.0.4 the Icon file contains the Favicons. In v3.0.4 WebepageIcons.db contains the Favicons. My Safari 3.0.4 folder still has an alias Icon file. SafariSpeed will not remove the Favicons. I assume this is because of the alias Icon. If I trash the Icon, it regenerates on startup. A search does not find the original Icon. Using Force Delete File - Home/Library/Safari, the Icon file is grey. I need to manually trash WebepageIcon.db to remove the Favicons. No reply from Scifience to my e-mails for help. How can I delete the Icon?

The Icons file has been locked, previously, without any help. When it is locked, I can not open the SafariSpeed preferences to select "delete Favicons". You suggest locking the WebpageIcons.db file, as well, but this does not resolve the problem in my hands. Have I made an incorrect move here?

HT3842 Does iTunes store the original music file and copy it into a separate folder? If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library?

Hi, on my last PC when transferring music to my new MacBook Pro i noticed i had about 6 duplicated of each song in every album i took hours in removing them.
I Just wondered Does iTunes store the original music file and then copy it into a separate folder?
If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library or vice versa. I didnt want to lose any music like i have some how managed to on my old computer.
Or should i keep both files of it in the Music folder and also iTunes library folder?
Which is best ?

DrewPowell wrote:

It does both at the same time.
When you add files to iTunes, it copies them into /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/ folder. The original file remains where it was.
You can drag a file to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes/ folder.
This will add to iTunes and move it to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/.
I keep a shortcut of this folder on my desktop then simply drag files to the shortcut to add to iTunes.
Then there are no "extra" files around.
