Question About Project File Location

I was wondering how important is the project file location when it comes to performance?
Currently, I store all of my adobe project files(AE, PRP, ENC) on my SSD along with my OS and applications.
Btw, I am familiar with the guidelines for disk usage, but cant seem to find anything that has covered this specific question.

My C:\ is an SSD, and that is OS and programs only. My D:\ is a fast WD 500 GB Raptor, and is reserved for Page file, My Documents. digital photos, and Video Projects. E:\ and F:\ are both WD RE4 RAID0s, so all my drives are fast.
I keep files which are frequently re-written, or replaced, off my SSD to avoid any risk of degradation due to repeated re-writing to the memory.

from list to open the download file;
As normal, It will open MsWord Automatic when download a "doc" file ; also It will open a new window of Browser to view a Html file;
I check the download process on client Browser; when download
file, The content-type always return "application/octet-stream";
Also the download File will lost the postfix of the file,
So Browser don't open the File Automatic;
I think If I set the correct Content-Type , Browser can know how open the file; So I use owa_content.set_content_type procedure
set the Doc file to "application/msword" , but the WEb Server always
return "application/octet-stream";
I didn't know how to do this problem, Plese help me.

I have a Tecra M2 and rely on your email update to ensure I have the latest drivers on my machine.
When I received a Toshiba support email on 14 April 2005 giving reference to a QFE from Microsoft I assumed it would be necessary for my Tecra.
I was very confused when I found that this QFE and subsequent ones posted on the 16 April 2005 relate to Pre SP2 critical updates no9t required if one has already taken earlier advice of updating to Service Pack, at the very least your narrative should make mention of this. I find it very difficult to believe that your updates are two+ years out of date.

Open and work on FCP project file located at xsan volume

It is recommended by apple to *open and work on FCP project file located at xsan volume*
or we should open , work and save our FCP project file from local drive only .
Is there is risk of corrupting xsan volume if we open FCP project file placed in xsan volume .
where should be the location of FCP project files ??????
Mac pro 2.66 , FCP 6.01, xsan 1.4

Opening a file twice is a indeed a problem. To prevent this, and for numerous other reasons, we use Open Directory. In OD you can configure that a user can login just once (concurrently).
In old versions of xsan it was not recommended to put project files on xsan, but nowadays it works fine.
Putting projectfiles on a san has the advantage that a user can work on any client. If this is not important in your environment these files can be stored locally.

Question about openning files using SDK 10.

I have written a Plug-In for SDK 9 that works wonderfully. One of the functions is for the user to be able to page (Next/Previous) between PDF files on our server. This functionality now longer works without crashing Acrobat 10. All I am doing is creating the URL path to the next/previous PDF, creating a CustomFileSys with the path and calling AVDocOpenFromFile.
Does this no longer work with Acrobat 10 SDK?
Thanks!

Should work fine, AFAIK.
For this level of issue, I would open a formal support request with developer support.

Default Project File Location

I just installed on a new computer and I cannot find out what to change to
point to a specific folder as the default project file location. It is not
in Scratch Disks.
Anybody know?
Steve

I think it just comes up automatically in the last folder used. Not sure that can be changed.

Default Project File Location - PE7

Can anyone help please
I have been looking for a way to edit my default Project file location. Have managed to change all the Scratch disk locations to my (Local) F: Drive, but I cannot see a way to change the default location for Projects to be the same drive.
I know I can set it each time I start a project, but it seems strange with modern software to be unable to define a default.
I've searched the Registry and can't find anything there, and I cannot see anything in Edit>Preferences. Also searched the forum, but couldn't find an answer.
Thanks
Colin

Thanks for the prompt and helpful reply. Really is much appreciated.
I'm going to print off your response and use it for my next project (in a couple of days).
Looks perfectly logical way of working.

Questions about properties files

Hello,
I have two questions about properties files.
1. Is it possible to import a properties file from another properties file?
2. Is it possible to have variables in a properties file as described below in code snippet.
Thanks in advance,
Julien.
Code snippet:
var_one=foo
var_two=$var_one bar
The second line would then read "foo bar"

Hello,
I have two questions about properties files.
1. Is it possible to import a properties file from
another properties file?If you write your own code to parse whatever import statement you decide to put in the properties file, yes. But there's no provision to do so in the core APIs or in the standard usage of these files.
2. Is it possible to have variables in a properties
file as described below in code snippet.Same as the answer to your first question. Though this kind of thing is more common, so there might be a library at jakarta or sourceforge or mindprod or something that does this.

Quick Question: Setting Render File Location

Hi all,
Quick question. I'm guessing with all the disappointment, the answer will be no, but I fully realize that I could have overlooked something so its worth asking!
In FCP7 (familiar phrase huh?) you could explicitly set a location for render files. I understand that you can save FCPX Events on different drives, as well as your projects, however it appears as if the Render Files are getting saved with a folder which also contains your .fcp project file.
I ask because I like having my project file on my internal so my Time Machine will pick it up when I have it hooked up, but all of those render files take up loads of space and I'd like that on my external media drive instead.
Is there:
a.) A way to tell FCPX to store Render Files in a different location
OR
b.) A way to move the Render Files to a different location without screwing up FCPX's ability to recognize the project and load it properly.
If so, great! If not, I'll send it along as a suggestion among with some others. Other than those overlooked technical aspects, I'm kind of digging the UI of FCPX and background rendering is saving me so much time its not even funny.

Hi Jorgen
I spent a bit of time on this today without any success.
In our studio, it's only me that edits... but I use a laptop and a macpro when things get serious. I have a RAID array tyed to the Macpro, and I access it with my laptop via gigabit ethernet.
I created aliases, and when I opened FCPX, nothing appeared. I also was not able to change the name of events I created, and while it would write the project name and events to the new aliased directories... when I reopened FCPX the events and projects were missing.
I then tried symbolic links via the terminal. No luck. I then checked ownership permissions, and made sure the permissions were ignored for the drive and everything was world readable and writable. No luck.
Have you had a chance to experiment with this yet?
Thanks

Question about PageMaker files

Can my old Mac Pagemaker files be open and used in the newer Mac with OS 10.6.8 which my Granddaughter has given me? If so, with all InDesign versions? I'm an old **** and this is the first time I'm trying to use a Discussion Group. How do I know when there is an answer? Do I have to keep this website open, or check back sometime, or will I receive an Email or phone call? Please let me know by means other that this site, to get started with. My Email is [removed by forum host] Thank you, Gerda May

Dear Peter (if I be so personal). First, thank you for deleting my Email
address on the post and saving me a lot of spam. Further, you were most
gracious in sending more specifics in regard to the answer of my question about
using PM files in InDesign.
However, I am trying hard to understand your instructions to unembed "links" and
bring them up to date. However, I have no idea of what links are, are they
something I would have intentionally done or are they automatic, and something
of which I have no control over? How do I locate them? Are these procedures
also necessity for using my old Photoshop 6 files?
I only use 2 Programs: PageMaker 6.5 and Photoshop 6. I have inherited a newer
Mac with OS 10.6.8 which has only the basic Mac programs in it. As you can
guess, I need to identify which are the proper newer programs to obtain for it,
with the least bit of effort and understanding.
I use PageMaker to write letters, and compose stories for printing in a Club
magazine. I also resurrect previous stories, that I've stored through the
years.
In Photoshop, I fix up new and old pictures for inclusion in stories and also
resurrect previous photos I've stored on an external Hard Drive, or placed on a
CD.
If you would be so kind to steer me in the right direction, I will be most
appreciative. Trying to understand computer things is hard for me, and often
times unsuccessful. Please just smile and don't laugh, I'll bet you can't take
shorthand or bake Dutch cookies, either! Looking forward to some instructions,
if you have the time, with many regards, Gerda May.

Getting Started with CFBuilder - A Question About Project Settings

Hello All,
I'm just getting my feet wet with CFBuilder and giving it a spin after over a decade's worth of experience with Dreamweaver and I have a question about setting up my work environment.
First of all, I have two computers that I mainly work from. My home desktop computer, and a laptop for when I'm on the road. I keep all of my web site project files syncronized between the two computers using Dropbox.
I've noticed that when I create a new project in CFBuilder it stores a few files in my project root like ".project" and "settings.xml". It looks like "settings.xml" stores information about which CFBuilder web server should be used for the project. Unfortunately this messes things up for me a bit because on my desktop a web site project url might be: http://desktop/myProject/ and on my laptop the project url could be http://laptop/myProject.
The reason this isn't a problem in Dreamweaver is because dreamwevaer stores its configuration/preferences outside of my project folders so I can essentially define any testing server I want for both the desktop and laptop.
Is there a way to configure CFBuilder to store project settings outside of the project folder? Or does anyone have a suggestion for someone like me who syncronizes their project files from their laptop to their desktop?
Thanks in advance for helping out a CFBuilder noob.

I would recommend using a distributed version control system (DVCS) with a hosted service, such as using Git/Mercurial and Github/BitBucket/UnFuddle. With Git, you can use a .ignore file to specify files/folders that you want to exclude from being stored in version control (I also exclude my CFBuilder project files from my repositories). You would then sync your local Git repositories with your service of choice, and they would be accessible from any machine.
There are many advantages of using Git and a hosted service over just Dropbox:
Each computer has a complete copy of the code repository, including all code changes over the history of your project.
You store code modifications in "commits", or small entries in the DVCS.
Commits can contain user-defined descriptions that help you identify what you did at each step of your development process
You can roll back commits if you break something in your code.
You can create "branches" of your code when you want to work on a specific feature of your application, and that branch is kept in isolation from other branches until you are ready to merge it back into the main production code branch.
You can have public or private hosted repositories on the various services, enabling you to work with a team or participate in open-source development.
There are Eclipse plugins available for CFBuilder that provide GUI tools for working with Git and hosted repositories (unless you are comfortable with using the command-line to do all your Git interactions).
I don't think you can separate the project settings from the project in CFBuilder.

Question about Project Lockdown

I've been reading through Arup Nanda's "Project Lockdown". I understand all of his rationals and procedures, but a few things leave me feeling a bit uneasy. Maybe it's just fear of the "unknown unknowns". In particular is the discussion on changing the unix access profiles for the oracle binaries. I have this uneasy feeling that if I were to implement those particular suggestions, it would end up biting me somewhere down the road.
Has anyone implemented all of the suggestions in this document? If so, what have been your experiences?

Arup Nanda_2 wrote:
Hi Ed,
Thanks Mark for pointing me out to this.
I have been using that for more than 8 or 9 years now, without any side effects. But as Emre Baransel reported that although he has been following that without any untoward effects, you should take every advise in the specific context of your environment. I have tried to put all caveats there; but there is no way for me to check all possible comobinations.
For instance, one of the advises is to remove executable permissions from extjob executable. If you are not using extrnal jobs from the database (99% of people don't), heeding that advise does nothing to your activities. But if you do external jobs, they are broken now. I have made that clear in the article; but I can't be sure if the reader will pay attention to that. But if you don't use external jobs, by changing the permissions you just closed a major vulnerability without applying the CPU patch, which may or may not close all the vulnerabilities.
Another is the case of nmb and nmo executables. If you are using Enterprise Manager to manage the O/S as well, then changing those executables will no longer allow you to do that. But if you don't do that particular activity (most don't), you again closed a major vulnerabillity without affecting your functionality.
For anyone who has ever authored anything, one thing is clear - the work is like broadcast, not point to point transmission. Even point-to-point. "If you explain something so clearly that no one can misunderstand, someone will".
It's not consulting which is situation specific. So, any work which is not prepared in context of a specific situation must be taken with that disclaimer - your mileage may vary. Understanding and testing is a must before committing the work.
Hope this helps.
ArupThanks for the response. Besides worrying about the "unknown unknowns" I also have a question about applying patches, especially the quarterly CPUs. Since, at some level, applying a patch is simply overlaying a specific file with a newer version, will this cause permissions to revert to default? Would we have to go through the process after applying a patch? I'll go back and re-read the original doc several more times to make sure I have a good grasp of what's going on here.

Question about pictures file in home folder

I am trying to create more space on my hard drive and have a question about the pictures file.
In addition to the iPhoto Library I have several folders named 1, 2, 3 etc each containing a bunch of photos; plus several hundred individual photo files.
My question is whether these files are duplicates of what is in the iPhoto Library - and is there an easy way to find that out?
And I guess also to find out how they got there in the first place. Could these be imports from disks as opposed to my digital camera?
Thanks for any help,
Laura

Hey laura,
I haven't used iPhoto for a while but from memory i think that i work similar to iTunes. Whne files are processed by iPhoto they are catalogued on the hard drive according to the iPhoto preferences. I would check out the iPhoto preferences and see if you can see anything in here that will tell you what is going on.

Question about Domain file size...

I have a dot Mac account, and my iDisk capacity is 1 Gb.
As I regularly back-up my Domain file from my G5 iMac to a FW external drive that sits on my desk, I have just noticed that the file size is now just over 1 Gb.
Can someone please explain to me why I still have almost 700Mb left on my iDisk, yet my Domain file size is over 1 Gb?? Obviously, there must be 'internal' files that aren't copied to the iDisk.
Thanks,
Rachel.

Wow, that's quite a discrepancy. 1gb Domain vs. 300mb site? Well suffice it to say that the Domain file contains all the information that is needed to generate your site. But it makes me curious too why you have such a large discrepancy. Do you have a lot of video on your site?
My site is only about 50-60mb and my Domain is roughly the same size. When I first started using iWeb, I used to poke around inside the Domain file quite a bit more than I do now. You can open up your Domain file by Control-clicking it and selecting "Show Package Contents." At one point early on when I was blithely dragging and dropping stuff into iWeb and publishing just for experimentation, I noticed that even after I deleted images or EVEN WHOLE PAGES, that sometimes the Domain file would still contain images and quicktime movies left over from the deleted pages. I didn't know what was going on and actually tried to delete the "old" items from the Domain file, but I ended up with a non-functional Domain file...lots of error messages saying it was missing this and that. So I started over completely with a new Domain file. I also noticed at the time that my Domain file was several megabytes larger than my site.
Since then, I have been very careful only to drag items to iWeb that will actually be used. The Domain-to-site size ratio has stayed pretty much 1:1. So I chalked up my earlier experience as a fluke. I don't know. Maybe there is an inconsistency somewhere. In fact, do a search here on "Domain file optimizing" or "Domain file bloat" and you may be able to find my questions about the issue. I never did get any responses, though.

Question about Password file

Good afternoon,
In the 2 Day DBA document it states:
>
When you invoke DBCA as part of the Oracle Database installation process, DBCA
creates a password file with one entry: the SYS user.
>
I created the database using DBCA and, it must have created a password file for me since I am able to log in remotely to the database.
The question is: I cannot locate the password file DBCA created, I don't know what its name is. Can someone provide me with the name DBCA uses for the password file ?
Thank you very much for helping,
John.

Hello SB,
>
post proof

I don't know if this qualifies as "proof" but... from the 2 Day DBA document distributed by Oracle, page 6-9:
>
When you invoke DBCA as part of the Oracle Database installation process, DBCA
creates a password file with one entry: the SYS user. Granting SYSDBA to a user adds
that user to the password file automatically.
>
I have no reason to doubt that statement. ;)
>
for some/many/most Oracle versions which you decided we did not need to know yours the file resides in
$ORACLE_HOME/dbs
>
I didn't decide you didn't need to know. I forgot to mention I am using Windows. As far as the Oracle version, since I used to constantly forget, I made the version part of my user name 11gR2, I can see how that can be easily overlooked.
Thank you for your help,
John.
