Rescue and Recovery: is long path and file name OK?
I am using T61 6466 5wG. For full system backup I am using R&R 4.21, and a WD Mybook USB HDD. I did regular backup before using R&R. When a virus attack happened, I tried to recovery my computer, but then I found I only get the folders back while not the files inside. Then I tried to find something back by using the function of "restore individual files", but nothing found still. Most of the lost files have common features, either very long file name or very long folder and path name. One noticing that the size of each backup file is pretty large and reasonable.
So I am wondering what was actually happened to my backup and restore? Is it a backup failure or a restore failure? Dose the R&R have problem with very long file names or path names? If it is only a restore failure, is there any possibilty to find my old files back?
thanks for the info.,you could also try long path tool. it helped me with error 1320 in Win 7.,

Rescue and Recovery Crashes While Deleting Backup Files
I've seen many threads in regards to Rescue and Recovery crashing while deleting backup files, but no solutions were ever mentioned! I have a T400 (Vista SP2, Intel T9400, 4GB RAM, 300 GB HD) and was quickly running out of disk space. After finding mention of Rescue and Recovery I was able to delete some of the backups but not all. For example I have one from 2008 (18GB) but it won't seem to delete. I let it sit for quite a while (over night) but it still didn't delete. Does anybody have a solution for how to get R&R to delete this files? Or how to delete these files manually? Thanks in advance.
Hi,
in this situation I assume, you are using the GUI for the deletiong of the RnR Backups.
What I always prefer is the rrcmd.exe which you can use with the "delete" whicht so that the backups that you want to will be deleted.

My rescue email address no longer exists and I can't remember my security questions. HELP
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

during restore of my backup on iphone 5s i saw my photos and videos get doubled on ios 8.0 and moreover
if i use to go at my computer and then open my iphone and in folder i see some files name local disk and my photos
please help my memory doubles.I'm not sure, but I know it's not recommended to upgrade to iOS 8 on anything older than an iPhone 5. I only lost my music playlists and music that was on my phone, but that music is also on my iTunes, not the playlists though, and I don't want to go through ALL my iTunes library to fix it either... But it seems I don't have a choice right now.
Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to iCloud Drive, keep iCloud till OS X Yosemite comes out, if your computer is a Mac. I also just noticed that all my documents on my phone are gone from Pages, BUT if I go on the iCloud website they are still there. Hopefully it will all work itself out when I can update my macbook pro to OS X Yosemite.
If you backed up your phone and all your purchases off your iPhone prior to trying to upgrade you should be fine... But I'm not even remotely sure. -
I just downloaded lightroom 5.6. Why do I have fill light and recovery but not highlights and shadows?
Your photo is using legacy processing version (2003 or 2010). Click the lightning bolt up near histogram, or use process drop-down at bottom in dev module (right panel, camera cal section) to use current processing version (2012).

Rescue and Recovery tool - problem with recovering files stored on USB memory stick
I recently had to use the Lenovo Care Rescue and Recovery tool to restore my 300 N200 to a previously backed up state.
As part of the Rescue and Recovery I selected the option to save user data in My Documents to a USB memory stick before restoring to the backup. This seemed to be successful (tool confirmed that 300MB of files were saved). But when I wanted to restore the files from the USB memory stick back to the laptop none of the folders/files is visible.
I checked the memory status of the USB memory stick and this confirms that 300MB space is taken up - but no files visible!!!
Can anyone help??ttt

Rescue and Recovery won't recognize backup files.
I have backup files on a usb drive, an ultrabay drive and the main hard drive and it won't recognize any of them. Anyone else have this problem?
-Mmanusoft, welcome to the forum,
attach the usb drive and then check it's recognised in BIOS. While you're in BIOS ensure that you optical drive is set as first boot device and place the boot disc you created in the optical drive. Save your settings and restart.
The system will boot to the R&R on the disc and in theory you should be able to then install the image.
Consideration; on the systems you move this image to the service partions will probably be no longer functional. I say probably as I've never done this with W7.
Hope this helps

I cannot load or delete I Tunes from my computer. What comes up is- The folder path "program files" contain an invalid character?
That's normally produced by a damaged iTunes.msi. The basic treatment for it is given in the following user tip:
["not a valid short file name" and "invalid character" install errors|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2368028]
... but since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Downloads Center, things have grown more difficult. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now start with *step 4* from the user tip, and proceed from there.
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.) -
Today I tried to update my ThinkVantage System, but the laptop was accidently restarted when ThinkVantage Rescure and Recovery was being updated. After the laptop was restarted, I ran the update program again and the ThinkVantage Rescure and Recovery couldn't be updated when the progress went to 91%. The following error was displayed on the screen:
"Windows cannot find 'C:\Users\hooklee\AppData\Local\Temp\{7E4C16BB-8F76-4940-8505-98E93C00B...\spmtr.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."
I restarted my laptop and re-executed the update program several times, but the same problem alwasy occured. Probably due to the failure of ThinkVantage Rescure and Recovery, now my ThinkVantage Productivity Center cannot run, either.
I looked into the directory "C:\Users\hooklee\AppData\Local\Temp" and noticed that there was no such a sub-directory at all. I searched the Internet on google with the keyword "spmtr.exe", but only two Chinese pages about the same problem (without solution) were found.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem or provide some clues about a possible solution? Thanks in advance for your help.

How to add new text and an empty space before a file name with Automator
I can create a new service to add to multiple files some text before the file name but I need to add even an empty space; e.g. file name original becomes: new text(space)file name original. The aim is to add this text and space to multiple files.
I hope to be understood. Please can somebody help me?
ThanksThis is an old Apple-supplied AppleScript that will do the job.
IMPORTANT: note the conditions of use: it will choose the frontmost Finder window to operate on. Therefore, open the folder you want to change the names of and make it the front finder window BEFORE running the script.
Add to File Names
This script is designed to add a prefix or suffix to files in the front window of the desktop.

[SOLVED] Find and replace quotes with underscores in file names
I was looking to replace all of the quotes in file names in a directory with underscores. I seem to be having a problem doing so, though. Running the find command:
find . -name '*[\`\'\"]*' -exec sh -c "mv -i '$0' '${0//[\`\'\"]/_}'" {} \;
I get a > inviting me to continue the command. What am I doing wrong?
Last edited by gogi-goji (2010-01-03 02:19:13)@lolilolicon: yeah the -exec part does give another level of quotes, so you can run into trouble with scripts inside -exec.
I didn't know you could give {} as an argument after sh -c and $0, that solves the problem of not knowing which quotes to use around it in the -exec part.
$ find -mindepth 1 -exec sh -c 'mv -v --backup=t "$0" "$(echo "$0" | sed s/[\\x27\"\`]/___/g)"' {} \;
mv: `./a b' and `./a b' are the same file
`./\'' -> `./___'
`./\'"\'' -> `./_________'
mv: `./$0' and `./$0' are the same file
mv: `./a' and `./a' are the same file
mv: `./$(echo crash)' and `./$(echo crash)' are the same file
`./"' -> `./___' (backup: `./___.~1~')
`./\'\'\'' -> `./_________' (backup: `./_________.~1~')
Or with the other substitution method, it doesn't interpret \x27 (you could use $(echo -e \\x27) or you have to use ...'\\\''...
$ find -mindepth 1 -exec sh -c 'echo mv -v --backup=t "$0" "${0//['\\\''\"\`]/___}"' {} \;
$ find -mindepth 1 -exec sh -c 'echo mv -v --backup=t "$0" "${0//[$(echo -e \\x27)\"\`]/___}"' {} \;
mv -v --backup=t ./a b ./a b
