Uninstall of Adobe Air leaves folders and files

We have a server which had Adobe Air installed. This was removed but there are still program file folders with files inside. Why hasn't the uninstall removed these files ?
Is there a tool or a way to do it properly or do we just have to delete the folder paths as I know Registry entries will also be existing.

So, from my understanding of uninstallers, there is an install log which documents all the files that was installed. When the uninstaller runs, it removes all of these files and then deletes the folder. However, in this case, it does not remove the bin file and so does not remove it, and then when it checks the folder it sees there is a file still located in it so it does not remove the folder.
I was unable to locate a way to change this in the LabWindows/CVI distribution. An option might be to include the bin file in the installer. However, I'm not sure exactly what this bin file does and if this would cause any future issues. Another option would create a bat file that is distributed with the uninstaller that uninstalls the program and then deletes the folder.

After Photoshop Elements quit working for the second time in three months, I uninstalled it and now cannot get it to reinstall from the disc. Nothing happens when I insert the disc. All I can do is look at the folders and files and see nothing that tells me how to start the installation. Clicking "open with Auto play" gives me irrelevant options, view photos, share, etc. I'm running Windows 8. This program has worked, although buggy, for the past year.

Plugged in memory card, exsiting folders and file names were renamed and unreadable

First time using this forum, so excuse and formatting mistakes. I will try to provide as much information as possible.
Today I plugged in my 16gb Kingston memory card after a shoot. The memory card had existing folders and files in it. When I looked at it in Bridge, though, the folders had been renamed as such: DCIM had changed to DBIL, _EDIT had changed to _^EDIT, _MG_7674.CR2 had changed to _LG^7674.CR2 and so forth. Lots of replaced letters and added symbols. Also, nothing can be opened now. I tried copying on of the images to my desktop, renaming to it's original name, but that did not work. I also plugged it back into the camera, and what was readable moments ago is now resulting in a "No Image" screen.
Help!
I am using Adobe Bridge CS6, a macbook pro with OS X version 10.6.8, and a canon 7D

Have you applied all updates to CS6? You should be at Photoshop CS6 13.0.6.

Finder has stopped putting my folders and files in alpha order. What happened?

Finder has stopped putting my folders and files in alpha order. What has happened?

When you check and reset that file setting back to alphabetical order, does it stick?
Sometimes a user permissions issue may cause a slight problem, so if this is the
only issue, you could try to 'repair disk permissions' in Disk Utility, However if there
is some other problem and this is only a symptom, something else may be the cause.
If files have been moved between user accounts, then previous account settings &
user permissions may be included with the moved file, so this matter may require
you to look into the settings within each file, via Get Info on the highlighted file name.
You can change permissions and privileges to some extent within this area.
And at times, a simple restart may be required, if the unit has been on awhile. Given
a portable computer, unlike a desktop, your use may not include leaving it on for
months at a time; so it probably has been restarted more than occasionally. Mine,
set to automatically sleep & spin-down the HDD when not in use, is up for months.
Good luck & happy computing!

MY system folder, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac) How do I remove them

I have a Macbook Pro running Leopard 10.5.8. I had a problem with my my operating system (my fault, I moved a file I shoudnt have) couldnt boot up but was able to boot up from a backup. I managed to repair my original system except now all the system folders, including hidden folders are littered with duplicate folders and files with the suffix (from old Mac). For the most part the dupes are an exact copy, but not always. I want to remove them to free up space and cant imagine duplicate folders in the /system/library are not hindering my computer. But I dont know where to start and am afraid of doing irreparable damage. Any ideas

How to recover lost folders and files - Pls help, help...

Some days ago I lost all of my 15 GB folders and files that stored in my Macbook Pro hard drive called DATA. I brought my Macbook pro to an experienced computer tecnicians who providing data recovery services. To his and my suprise, after checking, scanning it a few hours, he said their is no way to recover because he did not find any trails at all. The computer still seems working properly - I have no problem with any applications. There are few other folders in the DATA hard disk containing pictures, computer programs still remain. These lost folders and files contain mainly documents (word, excel, power point, pdf etc) which I accumulated in my many years working !!!!. I did not make a back up since last September partly because I think Mac is very safe.
The computer with me all the time on that day and only my son used Power Point to make a simple presentation on that evening - he can not save it on the folders the he normally use - All the folders and files are gone.
I will appreciate it very much if any of you can tell me what would be the possible causes and more importanly how to recover the lost folders and files. They are very very valuable to me.
Many thanks for your kind attention

First, did the data actually get deleted, or is it still there somewhere? Try searching the drive for some of the documents, perhaps it's all just in another folder on that drive.
If it's truly gone, it's impossible for us to say what might have happened to make it unrecoverable. Perhaps someone using the computer used Secure Empty Trash, or securely erased empty space on the hard drive. Perhaps it was overwritten by other stuff before you noticed. It's possible the hard drive is starting to fail, though this seems like an awfully specific problem for that to be the issue.
Or perhaps the tech you took the computer to didn't know what he was doing. Why not try recovering what you can on your own? See Recovering deleted files.
You should be aware that no computer is safe. All computers rely on hardware that may fail and software that can have bugs. You absolutely MUST maintain a good set of frequently-updated backups... no fewer than two full backups of anything you don't want to lose.

Formatted HD, but have backup of all the folders and files of Firefox. How can I restore everything, including plugins, bookmarks and saved settings?

I have formatted my computer's HD because of a problem with Windows 7, the thing is that Windows 7 didn't start, so I couldn't backup my Firefox settings, bookmarks, plugins, themes, personas and etc. the right way.
I also don't have a Firefox Sync account.
What I do have are all the folders and files of Firefox, because I just created a new partition and installed Windows 7 again, what I'm having trouble is finding a way (if there's any) to restore everything from my previous installation to the new one.
I have searched for days on both Google and on te Firefox forum with no success, the only questions I found are about restoring a profile, but what I'm trying to do is the same thing that the Firefox add-on " FEBE " does, which is restoring everything to the previous configuration.
Here's alink to the add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/pt-br/firefox/addon/febe/
I have tried copying, pasting and overwritting from the " .default " folder to my new installation of Firefox (yes, Firefox was closed), but when I opened it again, nothing was restored.
I every single folder and file Firefox ever created on my computer, this includes the installation folder (at Program Files), the profile (.default at AppData) folder, the Mozilla folder (ProgramData) and the Mozilla Firefox folder (also at AppData).
I also had the FEBE add-on installed, but like stated before, unfortunately I couldn't start Windows 7, forcing me to create a new partition to install a new copy of the OS.
Thanks in advance.
PS. Sorry if I made the text too long and/or if I mentioned the same things twice, just trying to be thorough.

Hi Sdarts,
I apologize for the delay in replying to your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are having issues restoring your Firefox user data.
Please see the following article, which explains how to restore your Firefox user data using a previously backed up Profiles folder, which seems to apply to your situation:

Please let us know if this solves your problem or if you have any questions.
Thanks!!

How to print a list of the folders and files in a higher level folder?

I want to print out a list of the files that I have in a folder. It contains a nested series of folders with files in each. I want to print a list of folders and files in the same order that I see them on the screen. I'm seeing them in the finder in List format.
If I select all, copy, then paste into a word processor, I get all the files and folder names reorganized alphabetically, which I don't want. Also, I don't get the file size or date modified when I do this.
I'd prefer not doing 30+ screen shots then having to print them all individually.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brad

The way I moved from 10.3.9 to 10.5.8 was to use "ditto -rsrc" and copy the user homes and the data share to an external firewire drive. Then did the same in reverse.
I found the key to data and share permissions to make sure that the users had the same UID in Leopard that they had in Panther.
You can then use "sudo rm -rf" to remove any folder from the relocated homes that you want. Remember if you do choose to remove "~/Library" from each users relocated home, you will be removing any iCal calendars, login.keychains, browser bookmarks, custom screensavers and wallpapers, etc.
Users don't really care if they can login and do any work. But there will be much wailing, gnashing of the teeth, and anxiety, if they lose their bookmarks and wallpaper.

How to create a folder with standard contained folders and files in SharePoint 2013?

I've got folders and files on my SharePoint 2013 site that form a template when I add a new folder for a customer. When I create a new folder for a customer, I want those folders and files added automaticly to that new folder. How can I do that?

How would I go about doing this without Visual Studio? Is that possible? Need to create Folder templates.
Every "new folder" created should have nested folders already included.
Company Name (New Folder 1)
Company Documents (1.01)
Tax Documents (1.02)
Bank Statements (1.03)
Extreme novice, please give as much details as possible! I'm trying to implement SP 2013 without all the 2013 software (Visual Studios, SharePoint Designer, etc.)
Thank you!

Finder not able to view folders and files on EHD after updating to OS X 10.9.4

I can see still see 'Hitachi' in the 'Devices' Sidebar, but I am not able to view folders and files on this Hitachi XL2000 2TB FAT32 Hard Drive (EHD) that is USB connected to the iMac below.
Late 2013 Apple iMac (27-inch Display 2560 x 1440), 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.8GHz, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X4GB, 512GB Flash Storage, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5, Magic Trackpad, Apple Wireless Keyboard and OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks
All was fine until I updated from OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 earlier this week, so now when I double-click on 'Hitachi' it just loads and loads with nothing happening and never displays the folder and file contents of the EHD.
Also, confirmed that Hitachi EHD has been removed from Spotlight indexing per System Preferences > Privacy > + > Hitachi and it was so this does not seem to be an indexing issue.
I have used OnyX and Apple Disk Utilities unsuccessfully to try and fix this problem.
Interestingly, Backblaze online backup still sees the EHD and connecting this EHD to a Win 8.1 PC also sees the EHD.
Further, I ran the commands below in 'Terminal' to make sure the drive was visible and got the following results which shows that the EHD is not hidden.
iMac:Applications john$ chflags nohidden /Volumes/Hitachi/
iMac:Applications john$ GetFileInfo /Volumes/Hitachi/
directory: "/Volumes/HITACHI"
attributes: avbstclinmedz
modified: 07/10/2014 23:26:44
Finally, I installed XtraFinder and am still not able to see the contents of the EHD, but when I installed OmniDiskSweeper I can navigate the EHD folder tree with no problems and can see the contents of the EHD, but when I try and open up a file it opens Finder which loads and loads and nothing happens.

Apple Support was quite helpful, but in the end I will wait to do a clean install of OS X Yosemite which is due in the Fall and not try and fix OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks.
It turns out that I run backups on my '/Users/john/Library' and the size of this folder before the 10.9.4 update was 1.07 GB and after the update it is 806.9 MB which is baffling, but in the end all of these problems should be resolved with a clean install of OS X Yosemite.
One lesson learned for the future is that I will wait on installing an update until it has been in the wild for awhile as a quick OS X Mavericks Finder Problem search and similar searches show there could be an issue.

Unable to rename folders and files on SharePoint mapped drive.

I just installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 and have mapped a drive to my SharePoint "Shared Documents" folder. I am able to open, save, and delete files and folders. However, I am unable to rename files and folders. No matter how long of
short of a name I use I get the following error:
"The file name you specified is not valid or too long. Specify a different file name."
I've mapped the "S" drive to http://hostname.domain.com/Shared Documents/
I am a SharePoint Admin, and have confirmed that if I do not have this problem if I log into SharePoint with IE. I have also confirmed that others are not experiencing this issue. Also, this issue did not exist on my previous installation of Windows
7. Therefore I assume this is a config issue.
Also, in "My Computer" it shows the mapped SharePoint drive as a "FAT" filesystem.

Did some more testing. From my mapped drive, I can create new folders and files, and delete them. I created a folder in Windows Explorer, when I tried to give a name it gave me the above error and saved the folder as "New Folder". No matter when
I try, I cannot rename this folder unless I log into the SharePoint interface.
Next, I tried this from the command line. I moved to my S drive, and did a "mkdir test" and was able to create a folder named test. Next I tried to "rename test testing" and received the following error:
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
The full path is S:\test. If I do a "mkdir testing" I am able to create the folder. If I try to rename the folder in Explorer, it gives me the "file name not valid or too long". I'm obviously well under the 260 character limit, so there
has to be something wrong with the fiel name, or drive mapping.
Also, when I "dir" the S drive it tells me the drive has no label. "Volume in drive S has no label."
I'm having the same issue with files. I can create a file, modify it, delete it, but can't rename it.

How can I explore the folders and files on my phon...

How can I explore the folders and files on my phone from my phone (lumia 920)?

the file system including all the data pertaining to that partition is closed on windowsphone8, unlike that of Symbian.
the only part you will be able to see is what you would see in this post here: /t5/Nokia-Lumia/Transfer-file-for-920/m-p/1605954#M24335
the rest is locked unless you have developer access, and even then not much as you would just use the SDK to make your applications.

How to move folders and files using UJFS

Hi guys,
I need to move from one environment to another the folders and files in the structure, cause the backup / restore (UJBR) doesn't move that part, now I need to know how to do it in the transaction UJFS . ( I'm using SAP BPC 7.5 NW Patch 8)
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Rodrigo

Thanks for your answer,
In this case, I'm going to move the files and folders from one server to another, so it's not the scenario you mentioned.
Cheers,
