User Library iMessages file attachments

I've notice in my user library there is a folder for iMessage attachments and then dozens of subfolders in that folder. In those subfolders are every attachment I've ever sent or received. Is it safe to delete the subfolders with the attachments? They are taking up valuable space.

I consistently delete mine. It removes the image from your computer though, thus disabling the option to view it from your iMessages app on the Macbook.

Adding File Attachments via Reader

Is it possible for Reader users to add a file attachment? Is there any way in Designer to script a button that would enable this, or am I being a bit too ambitious? I'm using LC8, whereas the users have Reader 8.
The form I have is Rights Enabled, but as far as I can see only Acrobat users can add file attachments.

Not with LiveCycle Designer forms. The PDF is a background image and the XML form fields for the content layer and teh XML forms know nothing about the objects in a PDF file.

I've just opened iTunes on my Mac with an error "The iTunes Library.itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file.". I created a shirred library so that all users on my Mac can access the same library. Help?

I have just opened ITunes on my Mac and the following error occurred "The iTunes Library.itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file.". When I setup my Mac I created a shared user area to contain my ITunes library so that I could share it with another user logged onto my Mac. However the error above gives me the impression that the library file is locked... I've checked and it does not seem to be locked under the "get info" fie information. Has anyone come across this before and found a solution?

You also need to make sure you have both read and write permission for the file, or for the whole iTunes folder for that matter. That's also done in Get Info for the file or folder concerned.

Photoshop CS6 files saved to User/Library/Caches/Temporary Items

Many of the users on my school network cannot save their Photoshop files to a specified folder. Instead the files are automatically saved to User/Library/Caches/Temporary Items folder.
I've changed the File Handling Preferences with no results in changing this issue. Since a couple users did not experience this problem, I'm wondering if it might be a permissions problem.

With the new versions, you have to be more precise with Folder redirection :
com.apple.MCXRedirector

I want to open a domain.site2 file outside the default folder (User/Library/Application Support/iWeb) with iWeb11, but iWeb only opens the domain file in the default folder. If I delete the default domain file, iWeb wants to create a new site. Help please

I want to open a domain.site2 file outside the default folder (User/Library/Application Support/iWeb) with iWeb11, but iWeb only opens the domain file in the default folder. If I delete the default domain file, iWeb wants to create a new site. Does anyone have the same problem or know how to fix it?

In Lion the Finder folder is now invisible. To make it permanetely visible enter the following in the Terminal applicaiton window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
For opening your domain file in Lion for the first time or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an applicaiton.
Just launch the applicaiton, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate

Can''t see inbox.mbox file in user library

For some reason, I can't see a .mbox file for my inbox when I look in my user library Mail folder. I can see a junk.mbox; I can see a deleted messages.mbox, but no inbox.mbox (or sent.mbox, for that matter). Can someone tell me where those messages live in the library? They must be somewhere, but I can't seem to find them. I am about to migrate to a new Mac Pro, and want to make sure everything gets to the new machine. I am currently using my laptop as my main machine, because my aging dual-867 mhz. MDD machine is nursing a dying hard drive, and nothing has been able to repair it, so I stopped using it. Of course, I still have a lot of mail on the old machine, and I wanted to archive the inbox contents to a .mbox file that I could import to the new computer. Are these mailboxes different from other mail folders? Thanks for any help.

Hi and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.

After Effects warning: Could not create the file '/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.0/dummy

I have just downloaded the trial After Effects CC. I'm running Mavericks 10.9.4 on my Macbook Pro.
When I try to launch After Effects, this message appears:
"After Effects warning: Could not create the file '/Users/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.0/dummy'"
I have followed the advice from other posts on this issue regarding resetting all of the permissions in the Adobe folder in my library to read and write , but it doesn't change anything. I still get the same message when I try to launch the program. Moreover, there is no After Effects folder in my Adobe folder, even though it's clearly in my Applications folder.
I also uninstalled After Effects and tried to reinstall it, but to no avail.
I sure would like to give it a try, as I was planning on purchasing it, but this is just one more issue in a long irritating line of issues that have arisen since trying to download it from CC.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

I am having this problem and this response does not make sense. I made the "Preferences" ,"Adobe" & "After Effects" folder along with the 10.0,11.0,13.0,13.2 folders all read/write. Can't seem to find an answer.

How external users can upload files in document library hosted in onpremise SharePoint?

Hi all,
We have setup a document library(DL) in SharePoint site hosed on-premise with no direct access from public zone/internet being an intranet solution. We have some external users who need to upload some files that needs to go in this document
library. These files are quite confidential in nature so security is a prime requirement. Following are the couple of options I have in mind:
1. External users upload their file in their designated folder to secure FTP using their own credential set. And also there is a background process (kind of directory watcher) that keep looking at the all the folders
and moves the files to document library
2. We host a single page application which has One time password (OTP) kind of feature. External user comes to the secure site to specify Vendor team name and mobile number. OTP is generated and user is asked to specify the password along with file
they would like to upload. This page also maps the vendor name with respective folder in DL and moves the files to SharePoint there on the fly.
Pls. share your opinion about these approaches. Also welcome your thoughts if there is any other better option.
Thanks.

Hi,
I agree with the Margriet, the first option is simple and safe, the users could not access the document library directly.
For security, it is an importance for users not access the document library directly, it will reduce the risk of the documents in the library.
Thanks,
Jason

Damaged file attachments for several users

All of a sudden, a handful of people are reporting that file attachments on email are corrupted (jpegs with jagged lines in them, pdf files with garbled text, .sit and .zip files that don't open) and I'm not sure what the source of the issue is. Anyone had this happen before? I'm on server 10.4.11.

I have rebuilt one of the effected mailboxes with mailbfr, not sure if this will cure the issue.

Access the user/library from a Time Capsule File

Ich habe vergessen die Mail-Library und das Adressbuch zu sichern, bevor ich den alten Computer entsorgte. Die Dateien sind aber noch im Time Capsule vorhanden. Wie kann ich die Benutzer-Library hervorholen, unter OSX Lion ist sie versteckt und ist nur mit <alt> Gehe zu sichtbar.
I forgot to save the User/library ie the addressbook and the mailfiles of my old LapTop. Now I got the Bakupfiles from Time Capsule but the Lybrary is hidden in OSX Lion! How can I manage this problem?
Thanks for hints.

Adobe moves project file to User/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems folder when I export using Encoder

Ever since the Adobe Premiere CC 2014 update, Adobe has consistently been moving my project to the User/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems folder whenever I export using Encoder. It adds a "_1" each time I export so eventually I have to resave (and rename) a project entitled, "Project_1_1_1_1_1_1" to the folder it was originally saved in. HOWEVER, this only happens when I drag my sequence to a preset in Encoder. If I export from Premiere and then queue it to Encoder, there is no problem.
I contacted Adobe and the man who assisted me proceeded to delete all of my preferences and told me my problem was now fixed. However, it still happens.
Has anybody else had this problem?

Sorry, I should have made it clear that the exercise I asked you to try was just a troubleshooting step to confirm whether the project gets moved when it's originally saved to the default location. I didn't mean to suggest that you should limit yourself to saving your projects there.
The next step would be to save a new project to your preferred path, then export and check whether the project remains where you save it.
But now I'm confused as to what the actual problem is since you say that "a copy of my project does exist in the original folder." Are you saying that when you export to AME, Premiere somehow loads the temp project? If so, what exactly are you basing that conclusion on? Perhaps posting a pair of screenshots of Premiere's title bar before and after exporting would help. That will show the path of the project.

Multiple file attachments in InfoPath 2010 Form

I need to attach at least 10 files in an Infopath form and it submits to a form library. is there any limit for attaching multiple files in a form and how can i increase the size for multiple File Attachments in Central Admin?

Hi fadnan,
For every web application, the document upload limit is the combined limit of all attachments that can be added to a list item. This is in the General settings for your web application in Central Admin.
In case of Infopath forms, it depends upon user session. You can view this setting in Central Admin > General Application Settings > Infopath Forms Services > Configure Infopath Form Services. Scroll down to User Sessions.
By default "Maximum size of user session data" is defined as 4MB but you can increase this limit to upload larger files. Hope it helps.

OWA Users cannot access .snp attachments

One of my user complains none of the user can access or download .SNP (MS Access Snapshot File) attachments from OWA 2013. When a user clicks on the attachment they get the warning message "Access to this Attachment is blocked. Recipients may not be
able to view the attachment, either."
But the same file is easily accessible from Outlook.
I have tried Set-OwaMailboxPolicy -Identity OwaMailboxPolicy-Default -AllowedFileTypes ".snp" and restarted the IIS Service but no luck!
Do I need to have Office Web App Server to be able to download these .SNP files? Is there any way around to allow such files in OWA out of the box?

Hi,
I recommend you should check the owavirtualdirectory also with the following command:
Get-OwaVirtualDirectory -Identity "ServerName\owa (Default Web Site)" |fl name,server,*FileTypes
If no .snp type, you should to add it.
Get-OwaVirtualDirectory -Identity "ServerName\owa (Default Web Site)" -AllowedFileTypes @{add = ".SNP"}
The following article for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123515.aspx
AllowedFileTypes
The
AllowedFileTypes parameter specifies the extensions of file types that the user can save locally and view from a web browser. If the same extensions are in multiple settings lists, the most secure setting overrides the less secure
settings.
To enter multiple values and overwrite any existing entries, use the following syntax:
<value1>,<value2>.... If the values contain spaces or otherwise require quotation marks, you need to
use the following syntax: "<value1>","<value2>"....
To add or remove one or more values without affecting any existing entries, use the following syntax:
@{Add="<value1>","<value2>"...; Remove="<value1>","<value2

TS1717 unes, i have windows 8, i get the message, "the itunes Library .itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file. how did this happen, how do i fix this?

the message"The itun, library .itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file". i have windows 8. how why did this happen? how do i correct this and prevent another occurance? I am able to access itunes on my i5, ipad, and my old i4 that i use solely as my ipod now. At the time problem occurred, i was connected to ext hard drive that hold over 190GB music, to add to my library. I am now unable to add to my library using my laptop. any advise/help is greatly appreciated!!

I just had the same problem and was able to fix it after trying a couple of things I found after a search.
The solution that worked for me:
Find iTunes folder - it should be in C:\Program FIles (x86) or similar depending on your operating system
Right click the entire folder (no need to open it) and click properties
Click the security tab
Click edit and highlight the user name under which you logged in.
Click the box next to full in the allow column, which should check everything
Click apply
Open iTunes
This worked for me.

How To Fix: "The iTunes Library.itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file."

I can't reopen my iTunes after I have to force quit when it does not respond. I get this message:
"The iTunes Library.itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file."
I've read to do the solutions. I right clicked on both the iTunes and Music folder and went to info for each. On both the lock at the bottom of the Get Info was locked. All of my users including admin can read and write all files within those folders. They are even a shared folder. I clicked on the lock to unlock it, typed in my admin password, and went to the gear to apply to all files inside. After doing that I keep getting the saved message.
I tried another way that I've found online to move my ituneslibrary folder to the desktop and then open my iTunes. In theory the iTunes is supposed to ask for where the iTunes library is. Once that is prompted you quit iTunes and drag the iTunes Library folder back to the folder from the desktop and reopen iTunes to apprently solve the problem. However, when I move the iTunes Library file to the desktop and try to reopne iTunes the icon just keeps bouncing and when I right click the application does not respond.
This problem is only resolved if I restart/shut down my macbook pro which is a 15-inch Core 2 Duo with intel. It will be 5 years old in December. I currently have Lion and the latest iTunes 10.5. This problem started in late December.

If you hold down the option key when starting iTunes, it will allow you to select a library or create a new one.
You can create a new one, and then add all of your iTunes music back in by simply dragging the old iTunes music file onto iTunes.
There are more detailed instructions at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451#
It will show you how to re-build your iTunes database file.
