Recovery of of folders from imported tapes

Hi,
I have been managing the backups here for 6 months now and I needed to re-inventory the annual tapes for the past years.
Some of those tapes were from another DPM server.
I had a recovery request and I'm having trouble getting what I need. A specific folder. The problem is that I have imported and recatalog the tapes, but I'm not able to see the list of folders on the tapes...
Is it because this drive was backup on 2 tapes and i'm missing one? I'm confused...

Hi,
Yes, it is possible that the data source you want to recover a folder from spanned across multiple tapes, and until you re-catalog the other tape you will not see that data source listed under the external dpm tapes. What you can do instead is right-click
that tape and view the tape contents, and if that datasource is listed, select that data set and copy it to another volume. As the data is restored, once you observe that the desired folder is restored, cancel the copy. Then you can manually copy the
folder to the final destination and delete the restored data you don't need.

Recovery from imported tape media fails and causes DPM management console to crash with ID: 917

Hi.
I have a newly installed DPM 2012 R2 on a Windows 2012 R2 with a standalone dedicated SQL server which is causing me a bit of a headache right now.
I'm about to restore some files from an imported tape media, the tape is from our previous DPM server (DPM 2010). I have identified the media and cataloged it and i'm able to browse it to choose wich files to restore. But as soon as i try to
finish up a restore job it causes the console to crash.
My server is running just fine with backups and restores from i.e tapes that is backed up by this server - no problem there - but imported is not working.
Below is the message from console when it crashes.
Connection to the DPM service has been lost.
Review the application event log for information about a possible service shutdown. Verify that the following services are not disabled:
            DPM
            DPM Replication Agent
            SQLAgent$MSSQLSERVER
            MSSQL$MSSQLSERVER
            Virtual Disk Service
            Volume Shadow Copy
ID: 917
Any ideas?

I'm guessing if you checked your event viewer, you would have the same error after the crash. I'm hoping Microsoft has a fix for this besides restoring the database...

I'm trying to import my old "on myMac" mail folders from my 4 yr old MacBookpro to my new macbookpro. Help. I didn't have iCloud or me mobile. I searched apps but can't find anything that addresses this problem. I liked the old mail program and how I could create many files or smart mailboxes. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you don't have a backup copy of the Domain.sites2 file that iWeb uses to create the site you'll have to start over from scratch. However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing image, audio and/or video files in the published site in the reconstruction of the site.

Importing folders from Address Book

Hi all,
I'm new to iPod and am wondering if there is a way to import folders from Address Book. At the moment I've got a long list of names in alphabetical order (some duplicated because they exist in more than one folder).
Thanks,
Andrew

You might want to ask for further suggestions in the Mac OS X 10.5 forum, then. Someone there might know how to get the database from Address Book 5 into AB4, if it's even possible.

Importing Mail folders from a Time Machine Backup

Hi,
i just finished setting up my brand new MacBook Air, what i wan't able to do was to import my Mail folders from the last backup of my previous MacBookPro and merge them into Mail on this computer.
To be more detailed, on my last computer i had some folders i created to store some important emails from work, from a specific person or for a specific porpouse.
I would definitly need those folders with the emails they contains on this computer too.
What i have is a backup made from time machine on an external device. I cannot restore Mail from it because it says it's a basic application of osx and cannot be deleted. Is there a path or a specific way i can find those folders with and bring them on my new computer?
Thanks a lot to all who will help me.
To be more clear, here is a screen of the type of folders i mean:

This item in Pondinis Time Machine stuff may help:
You can restore entire mailboxes or individual messages

Import mail folders from Snow Leopard into Lion

Hi,
I've just switched from my MacBook Pro (MAC OS X Snow Leopard) to a new iMac (MAC OS X Lion). On both machines, I've been using Apple Mail.
Now I want to import the Mail folders from the Mail in Snow Leopard to the Mail in Lion. When using FILE > IMPORT FOLDER nothing was imported: Both settings, importing from Apple Mail and importing ".mbox" files, did end in a message saying that the folders could not be imported.
So I figured out how to access the library folder in my user account on lion and pasted all the mailboxes from Snow Leopard to LIBRARY/MAIL/V2/MAILBOXES. After that, I deleted the "envelope" files from LIBRARY/MAIL/V2/MAILDATA. I started Mail and it created the envelope files from scratch. Now I can see the mail folders, but they are all empty! However, when I browse to the mailbox files in the Finder (LIBRARY/MAIL/V2/MAILBOXES), I can see that each mailbox ".mbox" folder has an "Info.plist" and a folder "Messages". Those folders are not emtpy!
How can I get my Mail in Lion to properly display the messages in the folders?
Any comments are welcome! Thanks for your support!!
Regards,
Matthias

Could you please explain the whole process of exporting mail from Snow to Lion. I have been trying for weeks on two diffrent computers and I can not get it to work.
I have moved the library, not sure to delete the envelopes. How do you export the mbox-files ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

HELP! Cant import folders from ext drive to itunes

I've recently had problems with my PC so, decided to copy all the stuff from my 60gig iPod to my external hard drive. I uninstalled iTunes then reinstalled it & tried to copy the folders from my ext drive back into itunes but, it's not moving them all. A number of folders exist with the name of the band & these seem to be ok - they look like typical folders in a windows explorer view. There is a shaded folder called "music" which when opened then contains more shaded folders with the folder names of "F00, F01" etc. These folders will not import to itunes no matter what I do. I have tried to "import folder" but it doesn't work, I have tried to move the folders back to my C drive but itunes doesn't recognise them. I have updated the "advanced" tab in the preferences to my ext drive / pointed to the folder "music" but, it still doesn't import the files. Can anyone help or offer some suggestions please? I'm really hacked off by this as I cant sync my iPod up as I'll lose everything on it. thank you!!!

You are not the only one... Several threads exist on this topic - iTunes refusing to import (all) files from folders - but no solution yet it seems, and Apple is not responding at all...

Import from VHS Tapes

Hi: I got my ipod in 2011 and synced it to my old computer. The music that Is on it is from imported cd, so I cannot transfer purchases to my new computer. I also want to keep the settings, favourites, folders, and information that is on my ipod. How do i sync it to new computer? Please Help.

You will also have to copy the iPod backup file to the new computer and then restore your iPod from backup using that backup. The file is located here:
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory
You can also make a backup on the new computer by conneting the iPod and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting BackUp. When you retore from backup sometime the app folder structure get messed up.

Import Public Folders from pst file

I am trying to import our Exchange 2007 public folders into our managed Exchange 365 account at Microsoft. I created the Primary Hierarchy public folder name, PublicFolders, but don't understand how to use pst import to get the public folders
under this main folder. All I have accomplished thus far is to use Outlook to import the public folders into the administrator Outlook account on the managed Microsoft O365 server. They import into a folder called IPM_SUBTREE in the administrator
mailbox on the server. Do I somehow have to move the public folders from there to the actual public folder location? I really need and appreciate any help.

Hi,
For this issue, I recommend you post to Office 365 forum which is staffed by more experts, you might get a better help there. Thanks for understanding.

Selectively importing particular folders from iPhoto

New user to AP.
When one imports the iPhoto library into Ap, how does AP handle images that were in the iPhoto "modified" folder? Does it bring them in as separate master files or as versions of the originals?
Secondly, and assuming the answer above was that AP makes versions from the "modified" folder, can I just bring select folders from iPhoto and still get the versioned files from the modified folder? Or, is the only option to import the whole enchelada. I'd like to bring certain rolls over from iPhoto as projects as reference files without bringing all rolls, still maintaining the originals with modified versions as versioned files in Ap.
LoL. If anyone can answer this question you're awesome for putting up with my confusing description.
I just don't want to import the entire iPhoto library, it's too huge. I need certain rolls with the work I've done, but I also need to maintain the originals.

I figured it out.
1. Create a project.
2. File>import>folders into a project.
3. Browse to ..iPhoto\Originals\desiredfolder> [select and import with custom name plus counter]
5. Select the album just created.
6. File>import>folders into a project.
7. Browse to ..iPhoto\Modified\desiredfolder> [select and import with custom name plus counter]
Modified pic files will go into the same album and sit side by side with originals.

Unable to properly capture HD video from miniDV tape in FCE

unable to capture HD video from miniDV tape
When I connect my Sony HDR-HC3 miniDV HDV camcorder to my iMac via firewire cable and use Final Cut Express to capture the video from the tape, I do not get a Capture window that allows me to specify in and out points, I just get a playback window that immediately starts capturing and the only option I have in this window is hit ESC to stop capturing. If I let this capture window continue to capture the video from the camera with miniDV HD tape, then the entire tape would be captured as one massive single video clip.
QUESTION: Is there something I change or do to make the proper capture window appear where I can specify in and out points to capture from tape for each clip?
NOTE: using same camera and tape with iMovie with automatic capture enabled, all the clips get captured properly. I also tried to use the manual setting in iMovie and it worked too.
More details(read only if you want more information)
I have a several miniDV tapes containing HD video created on a Sony Sony HDR-HC5 and Sony HDR-HC7. Unfortunately, both these camera were stolen, and I have since moved to a camera that uses flash memory, not tape. However, I need to get the video footage off these tapes, so I bought a used Sony HDR-HC3, it plays the HD miniDV tapes just fine and iMovie reads the video from this camera just fine, but Final Cut Express does not.
When I setup Final Cut Express, I used the Easy Setup and specified:
Format: HD
Rate: 29.97 fps
Use: HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60
These setting match those of the camera and recorded tape. If I use any other settings but these, then Final Cut Express never sees the camera and never opens any capture window at all. Using Quicktime 10 movie inspector on the clips captured by iMovie from same camera, all the clips match this setting too.
Final Cut Express version 4.0.1
iMovie 09 Version 8.0.2 (821)
iMac 2.93 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3 running
Mac OS X Version 10.6.4
My Final Cut Express scratch disk is a Seagate 2TB external USB 2.0 Hard Drive that has been formatted to be Mac OS Extended (Journaled). This external disk is also where iMovie successfully captured all the video from the same camera.

Thanks for the answer. It makes me sad. I thought using Final Cut Express would be an upgrade to a more robust editing system from iMovie, yet iMovie does a superior job of logging and capturing video from HDV video on miniDV tape in comparison to FCE. Not only does iMovie capture each clip on the tape into it's own video file automatically, it also includes timestamp information in the filename indicating when the clip was originally recorded, which appears to be something that is missing from Final Cut Express. Now I realize that HDV miniDV cameras had a relatively short life span in the consumer marketplace and have since all been replaced by flash and hard drive based AVCHD cameras, but from circa 2004 to 2007, miniDV HDV camcorders were very popular and I am sure there are lots of consumers that must be super frustrated by Final Cut Express limited ability to log and capture clips properly from these cameras.
Assuming I do not want to make a rough cut of video in iMovie and prefer to begin my editing project in Final Cut Express (not doing XML export of iMovie project), I need to determine the best way to get clips captured via iMovie into Final Cut Express and determine if there is anything inferior in the iMovie captured clips that I need to be aware of. So far it appears that both iMovie and Final Cut Express reduce the 5.1 surround sound captured on the HDV miniDV tapes to stereo sound, which is not a big lose given the 5.1 sound was recorded from camera's built-in microphone, but it makes me wonder if the video is reduced in any way by the iMovie import process, examining the video in quicktime's inspector window the video appears to be the same in both iMovie and FCE, but I'll research the answers to these questions elsewhere on this forum and post additional questions if I do not find the information I need.
