When you elect to show hidden files, you'll see things like the $Recycle.Bin folders and desktop.ini files. That's just the way Windows works.
Desktop.ini files, BTW, are what tell Windows Explorer how to lie about what it sees in a folder.

Recycle bin has copy of every file edited with PSE6?

Its very disconcerting to check your recycle bin and find dozens of files you had no intention of deleting. I didn't realise this would happen and it meant I had to go back and check dozens of files to ensure they were still there. Why does this happen? Can I stop it?
I'm running on Windows XP

>As far as i know, PSE use the copy of image for undoing delete action.
That's not relevant to James' issue -- he hadn't deleted any photos, and thus didn't have any deletes to undo, but there were still photos appearing in the recycle bin.
I reviewed my notes, and what I posted above was subtly incorrect PSE does
sometimes use the recycle bin to implement undo of changes to files metadata. But you can safely empty the recycle bin at any time, and PSE will still undo corresponding changes to the catalog. For gory details, see this FAQ:

I just accidentally wiped out my entire music library. How can I get apple to help me download the purchased songs again? The songs went to my recycle bin and I immediately restored them but the files seem to have dissappered!

I just accidentally wiped out my entire music library. I sent everything to recycling bin and then immediately hit restore all items as I knew what I had just done. Now I can find where those files went. Is there anyway Apple can just send me my purchased songs again?

"$RECYCLE.BIN" and "System Volume Information" on a hard drive connected to EA4500

Hello
I've bought WD Elements 3 TB USB 2.0 External HD WDBAAU0030HBK hard drive for my Linksys EA4500. The hard drive was NTFS formatted. After I plugged it in I see "$RECYCLE.BIN" and "System Volume Information" folders on it via my Windows Explorer. I know these folders to be Windows system folders, but my hard drive is now connected to router. So do I really need them, or can I safely remove them?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The EA4500 does not have to anything with these folders popping-up since they appear on the computer by its design- system file and cannot be deleted permanently. I had read some notes on how to hide these files; you can try these if you want:
It works as a part of recycle bin in your desktop. To make this disappear, go to Tools > Folder Options > View and uncheck “Hide protected operating system files”. System Volume Information is where windows system restore files are located. If you do not want to use this folder then disable System Restore.
But just to be safe, leave it as is. This should not make any issues or problems in accessing the files from the HD using the computers connected to the EA4500.

I've lost the finder and desktop icons

Purchased new iMac 10 days ago but did not immediately transfer data from old computer. When I did, I transferred from a Backup on Time Machine using Migration Assistant . I did not merge the two users I had the New Jon (new computer) and the Old Jon (old computer transferred to the new one). I transferred applications and documents but did not transfer the computer and network settings. My reason for two users was that I knew there were programs on the old iMac (10.9.5, early 2008) that did not work on 10 and I was hoping to cherry pick.
However, the new iMac (10.10.2) wasn't seeing any of the desktop files in either user from the old Mac. I decided to delete Old Jon keeping New Jon and starting over again. When I did that, none of the Old Jon applications were deleted and are usable for both users AND the Finder is missing. Clicking on Finder it says that the Finder can't be opened. The finder had been working on both users on the new computer up to the point at which I deleted Old Jon.
Interesting to note that at one time (I don't remember if I was upgrading from 9 to 10 or it was a 10 upgrade) but the Finder on the old Mac also disappeared. I was on forums and seemed to be a problem that many people had. For me, the only thing that seemed to work was opening Activity Monitor and force quitting Window Server and after that the finder and desktop icon showed up. So I'm thinking it must be a program or file I have on the old computer. So, I thought I'd try downloading 10.10 figuring if I reinstalled I would get where back to an "out of the box" computer.
Even though it said I was downloading 10.10 the new install said it was still 10.10.2. All of the applications from the old Mac were still there and there was still no finder. I created a couple of new identities in the New Jon computer. Both of them have access to the finder but the Main identity does not. I have noticed that if you log under under one of the new identities and then go to the Main identity the Finder is there - but not if you log into the Main Identity first.
Can anyone give me hint as what I might do to where I might look or steer me to another forum? Hope this isn't too confusing. Thank you so much

How to create and edit a .ini file using java

Hi All...
Pls help me in creating and editing an .ini file using java...
thanks in advance
Regards,
sathya

Let's assume the ini file is a mapping type storage (key=value) so lets use Properties object. (works with java 1.4 & up)
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Properties;
public class Test {
     private static Properties props;
     public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
          File file = new File("test.ini");//This is out ini file
          props = new Properties();//Create the properties object
          read(file);//Read the ini file
          //Once we've populated the Properties object. set/add a property using the setProperty() method.
          props.setProperty("testing", "value");
          write(file);//Write to ini file
     public static void read(File file) throws IOException {
          FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);//Create a FileInputStream
          props.load(fis);//load the ini to the Properties file
          fis.close();//close
     public static void write(File file) throws IOException {
          FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);//Create a FileOutputStream
          props.store(fos, "");//write the Properties object values to our ini file
          fos.close();//close
}

I deleted some apps on accident, went to my recycle bin and saw they were in there so i restored them, but now i can't find them. Did i totally lose them?

I deleted some apps on accident. I went to my recycling bin and saw them in there. I tried to restore them thinking that they would just reappear on itunes, but they didn't. Is there a way i can get them back or did i completely lose them?

Which idiot at apple decided this was intuitive?
I too have lost months of work, because when Notes started to mysteriously appear in Mail, I deleted them (That makes sense doesn't it? - Its not MAIL) Why would any one then setup the best OS in the world to delete the actual notes (from within Mail) in the application you created them in???? with no warning and no backup. Months of work, instantly destroyed. This is why i pay the Apple prices!!
If Jobs was still around, heads would roll.

Help! When I go to mail, the bin and forward icon etc have disappeared

Please can you help? Help! When I go to mail, the bin and forward icon etc have disappeared

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Active Directory Recycle Bin and Infrastructure FSMO Role.

Hello!
In the book about Active Directory I have found the information:
"Once the Active Directory Recycle Bin has been enabled, the infrastructure master’s functions are performed independently by every DC in the forest. That is, the tasks just described are no longer delegated to a single DC."
I have looked for additional information and found only one article from trusted source: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc223753.aspx :
"When the Recycle Bin optional feature is enabled, every DC is responsible for updating its cross-domain object references in the event that the referenced object is moved, renamed, or deleted. In this case, there are no tasks associated with the Infrastructure
FSMO role, and it is not important which domain controller owns the Infrastructure Master role."
Someone have any additional information about this changes?
How Infrastructure Master role works, after enabling AD Recycle bin?

From my understanding is that the Infrastructure Role ceases to do the updating when cross-domain objects are moved-renamed- deleted and now becomes the function of the domain controller that did the action. This makes the role of Infrastructure Master redundant
thus no longer a necessary role.
When you enable the Recycle Bin - that's a forest wide operation meaning that each domain must be at least a windows 2008 R2 domain level and the forest is a 2008 R2 level -

I cant download a new tv episode because itunes says the disk is full that it is being stored on....however when I deleted many shows from my library it still will not download.....I went to my desktop and tried to empty my recycle bin and the empty recyc

I cant download onto my computer an episode I purchased because when I hit download it says that the disk I am attempting to tranfer to is full.....however iy had no problem down loading another show....(Jon Stuart) So I went to my library where I see my shows stored and deleted MANY and when I tried again to download ---I got the same message to full......I tried to empty the recycle bin on my desktop thinking it was holding too much but the choice to empty is not darkened so it will not empty....can ANYONE help?

Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop?
Here is how to do this:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Disks icon at the top of the AirPort Utility window
Click the Disks tab below the icons
Click Erase
The "Quick Erase" option will only take a moment or two
Now you can backup your MacBook Pro. If you connect an Ethernet cable from the MBP to one of the LAN <-> ports on the TC, the first backup will go 3-5 times faster than wireless.
Once you have the first backup done, you can use wireless for subsequent backups since they will only take a few minutes

Recycle bin, and new folders on desktop, of Macbook Pro

I bought my Macbook Pro (Mountain Lion) on Sept 2012. I am facing two issues: 1. The recycle bin is getting filled automatically with empty folders named 'recovered files'. 2. New folders are being generated on the desktop. These folders contain the movie files that I had inserted in my ppt and keynote presentation.
Please let me know how to address these issues.
Thank you.

Thank you. I can always empty the trash bin. What I would like to know is why this automatic filling of the trash bin occurs and how to prevent it from happening in future.
About the second issue, those are movie files already saved on the computer (transfered to the MBP with a USB). It seems each time when I use the presentation in Keynote or Powerpoint, these movie files in the presentaion are somehow extracted into those automatically-generated folders on the desktop. Though both these issues maybe harmless, they look wiered to me.

Recycle Bin and Core Dump

Hi Friends,
Why do we use core dump I mean "core_dump_dest" till now I didn't see any files in this particular destination.
My 2nd Question is where is the Recycle Bin created and can we adjust the size of the recycle bin according to our requirement.
Say,
SQL>> drop table stock;
I can get back the table from the recyclebin using flashback option. I heard recyclebin stores in the same datafile pertaining to the table dropped.
Update me regarding this.
Cheers,
Sailesh

Hi,
>>Why do we use core dump I mean "core_dump_dest" till now I didn't see any files in this particular destination
"A core dump is a memory image of the Oracle shadow process produced when an unexpected , unrecoverable or invalid condition occurs." It seems it was primarily used on Unix platforms and I think they are normally produced when the session or the instance terminates abnormally with errors.
>>My 2nd Question is where is the Recycle Bin created and can we adjust the size of the recycle bin according to our requirement.
In fact, the recycle bin is a logical structure within each tablespace that holds dropped tables and objects related to the tables, such as indexes. By the way, there is no such initialization parameter that can limit the "size" of the recyclebin. In addition, according to documentation, the objects in the recycle bin are dropped to satisfy space requests before any of the tablespace’s datafiles are autoextended.

Recycle bin and 'clear disk space'

a combination issue, in PC settings etc you have the option to manage disk space, mentions the recycle bin at the bottom, HOWEVER, it displays the bin as empty, while it actually has about 6GB in it over at least 1 of the 3 'drives' I have.
also, if you search for the reyclebin it'll always return nothing, the only access to it is via the desktop folder assuming you actually have one, 'This PC' (aka 'my computer' or 'computer') are still accessible via search so why not the bin?
both of these I find pretty stupid to the point I call them bugs, there been anything about this...?

Hi,
The storage occupied in recyle bin under PC settings is the same as the storage occurpied in the bin in desktop, that means if you empty the recyle bin in desktop, then the recycle bin at the bottom of PC settings will also display empty.
And regarding to this sentence
"if you search for the reyclebin it'll always return nothing, the only access to it is via the desktop folder assuming you actually have one, 'This PC' (aka 'my computer' or 'computer') are still accessible via search so why not the bin?"
I don't quite understand this sentence, but search result should be related with "Indexng Options" under Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Indexing Options

'same as the one on the desktop' well no, its not;
why would you think I'd say otherwise?
also, considering the indexing should already contain the desktop, that doesn't make sense either, and I definitely haven't turned off indexing anywhere.

Finder and desktop icons frozen after time machine backup

Finder desktop icons freeze every time after a Time Machine backup. *What's odd is that I can still use other apps, but I cannot select/open any item on the desktop*.
Adding to the strangeness, +is that what's left after the backup is finished is a blank space+ (beneath the HD icon). Typically, all the items on the desktop rearrange themselves to their original positions once the backup volume disappears (i.e. backup is complete).
I've run disk utility for permissions check, and all is well.
Would appreciate some guidance on how to fix.
This issue pre-dates the 10.5.7 update.

HI,
Try deleting these files.
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.

Ethernet connecton and desktop icons

configured the new time capsule as an ethernet shared HD via two ethernet cable to my wifes macs. Created desktop icons for her to use (she wants to use it as a 'shared' drive for her two computers. The problem is that every time her computer wakes up the icons disappear. Any suggestions to make them permanent? Tried doing it via "log in" options (like I do with my own NAS drive) but ti doesn't seem to work flawlessy for her.

Sorry about the delay.
Right now, my wife is using FireFox for her browser, while I use Safari. It works because, this way, she has her bookmarks (for example) and I have mine. She has her "settings"; I have mine. (etc.) We all loved it when we were using the ATT Yahoo! browser I mentioned before.
Okay, the kludge I was thinking about would only give you "half" of what you wanted here, and I'm not sure it would be the important half.
If for example, you had a Yahoo home page and your wife had an iGoogle homepage, what we could do is save a copy of your home page to your desktop as a web archive, called "his," and save a copy of her home page to your desktop as a web archive called "hers". To open to your homepage, you'd click on the "his" web archive. You'd be opening the file on your desktop, so it wouldn't "update". But all the links that are in it would work, and if you put in a link to your "real" home page into the home page (before you archived the "his"), you could then click on that and you'd be at your homepage proper. So, you'd never even have to see "hers" on the way to "his".
But settings and bookmarks are trickier. Safari is set up so that you get one set of Safari preferences/settings/bookmarks/history/passwords *per user account.* So even if there was a way to install two different Safari programs in the same user account, both Safaris would end up looking at the same set of preferences and settings (etc) files for that particular account. So you wouldn't be able to segregate, say, bookmarks using just Safari.
You could perhaps segregate two sets of bookmarks using an extension like Delicious Safari or Pinbar, where you'd end up hosting two different sets of Web Hosted bookmarks. But I'm not sure that that's what you're after, and that doesn't help if you wanted to have completely different sets of extensions, or security settings, or font smoothing or font zoom levels and so on.
