Where are files in 09

When I go Home to Pictures to iPhoto Library, I get an iPhoto Logo with the size etc but no files. Where are the actual files?
Thanks

For access to photos for use outside of iPhoto read Terence Devlin's treatise on file access. It is the best explanation of how to.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in it's rebuild library window, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

Where are files for my applications kept? I'm trying to do a clean install.

I have an intel imac OS 10.6.8. I have to do a clean install and need to transfer my files to a USB flashdrive because time machine hasn't backed up in 3 months. Where are files for my applications kept?

Since you mentioned Time Machine, I'm assuming you have an external hard drive? So why not make a complete backup - either with Time Machine or a bootable clone with CarbonCopyCloner or SuperSuper? Applications sometimes transfer well, but not always - it depends how many files/parts they have on the hard drive in different locations. There is no simple answer to your question because of that - it depends on the individual application. I'd back up all of it, do the install, and then use Setup Assistant to port things back.

Where are files for my Oracle 10g DB kept?

Hi, I want to set up a connection from Visual Basic Express Edition 2008 to my Oracle DB.
Where are the Oracle DB files kept?
Also, will the connection work? I have the Oracle XE ODBC driver...

To start a new connection, you have to browse with explorer for a database "file". A typical one you're looking for would be an .mdf file. Thought it was a bit weird but that's how it works with this IDE. There doesn't seem to be a way to connect to a server, then open a database.

Web Folders, where are files and content stored?

When files/content are added to Web Folders, via Portal, where are these files stored? In the database? file system?
Thanks in advance for any answers!

Thanks for your reply Sandeep,
So I assume a hot or cold back-up of the database/MRU will also backup all Portal content?

Migration Assit. - Where are files?

I used Migration Assistant to transfer Applications from my iMac G5 PowerPC to my new iMac Intel. All the Applications transferred, and some that I can't use or don't want there (I never saw an option to pick and choose), but where are the files? Word files, Excel files, etc. Shouldn't files in my Home Folder be transferred too? My Documents, Pictures, Stickies, etc? No pics are in iPhoto or music in iTunes.
Do I have to manually move them over or are they hidden somewhere?
Thanks, Sandy

I did find my User folder from my old iMac on my new HD and was able to move document files that I needed.
The folders labled Music, Pictures, Movies, Library were marked with a red negative sign, and tell me I don't have access privileges. I right clicked to Get Info and unlocked them and allowed Read/Write access. I then dragged the files into their appropriate folders under my User name on the new iMac.
I hope this is the correct way to move them.
Actually, I haven't moved my iPhoto Library folder yet, as I wasn't sure if the whole folder should be moved or just some of it. There are a lot of sub-folders in there.

WHERE ARE FILES FROM MIGRATION OF OFFICE FROM OLD WINDOWS COMPUTER, WHERE ARE FILES FROM MIGRATION OF OFFICE FROM OLD WINDOWS COMPUTER

I just followed directions of migration of my documents and Outlook from my Dell to my new iMac. Now, I can't find the files.

Refer to OS X Lion: About Windows Migration Assistant for general info about the procedure. Where the files end up depend on if you migrated your PC files when you first turned on the Mac or later, after you created its first user account. (Click on the appropriate section at the bottom of the 'about' article for more about that.)
It sounds like you did the migration later & the files are now in the home folder of another user account.

Where are files while they are being downloaded?

When I download tv shows, there always seems to be some interruption that stops the download, and causes it to start over. Does the data that I got already just go away? Where are the incomplete files stored during the download, and are they all still on my computer somewhere?

IMO i wouldnt think so, but there are hidden cache that are around, they only way to really make shure the are deleted, is by running a disk cleanup within the utlities

However I would like to know what files in itunes contain my library and playslists, and where they are located. Can anybody help me?

Scanning into iPhoto -where are files landing, and how to get copies?

Maybe if I describe my current situation, I can better understand what a good way of maintaining the archive of photos I've kept for 13 years is in a cross-platform manner. I just scanned a photo, and chose to tell the scanning software to send it into iPhoto. There it ends up in the package, in folders like Originals>>2009>>May 25, 2009 and May 25, 2009_2 for the second scan, etc, etc.
So I can either copy the files that are in those folders to the desktop, taking care not to remove or delete them, and then push them into my archive in the folders I want them, or I could save out each one as it hits iPhoto, using the Export function. I've got 18 years of film photos I'm going through to add to my digital archive the best memories of my wife, who recently passed. So if I find one of us at Fallen Leaf Lake in 1995, I want to shove it into my archive folder in a folder called 1995, and it's subfolder Summer. iPhoto has been a godsend in this project, but I also want to continue maintaining my application-independent archive, and am thinking that maybe saving out each photo as it hits iPhoto is the way to go. And is it possible I'm just not getting how to scan a bunch of related photos at once and have them all land in the same folder or event?
With every photo getting it's own folder in the package, today's date in the metadata, and it's own new "untitled event", I'm finding it difficult to make much progress.

Okay I've figured out a way to work with the scanned photo files before iPhoto. But what do I do to get them into iPhoto in a way that makes sense? I've got film-only photos I need from around 1990 all the way up till the recent past. So I'm looking at nine photos of my wife at our daughter's first birthday. To pull them into iPhoto without creating a bunch of folders, events, with today's dates.... Should I put them into folders with descriptive names in the hopes that that will cause iPhoto to assemble them into an event by that same name?
That is a good idea
drag the folder onto the iPhoto icon in the dock to import all of the photos in it as an event with the folder name
Also you can use file names (name managler - http://www.manytricks.com/namemangler/ -is a good program for renaming files) before importing to iPhoto
And use some kind of metadata editor to assign dates before pulling them into iPhoto? I whacked my entire iPhoto library a few days back over this this and some other sets of photos, because once I got them into the same "event", I used Command+A to select them for a date change. However that did not select all the photos in the event, it selected all the photos in the library. Then the date change put everything out of whack for all the photos - apparently it adds or subtracts to the Julien dates, so instead of making everything that certain date, in this case it adjusted all photos to lose about ten years.
You used adjust them and date - it adds a constant delta to the dates which does not work for scanned photos since they have no "date taken" - you want the batch change time and date to change all selected photos to a specific date and time (with the possibility of adding an increment to the time)

Where are files downloaded by Adobe Application Manager?

Once I've downloaded and installed an application using the new Adobe Application Manager (for Creative Cloud), where on my Mac can I find the file that was downloaded? (hopefully a big .dmg) I need to install the applications on multiple machines and I sure as heck don't want to make all those downloads over and over again.

You'll probably find that you have to download the trials of CS6 outside the AAM and install them.
e.g. http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
Then license them for the Cloud via http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/convert-cs6-licensed-under-ccm.html

Iweb query - where are files I have created saved to?

I have never previously used iweb in the 7 years I have had my computer. Now I have created a small website on it but I am struggling to launch it. I have chosen the FTP option and downloaded an FTP client (Classic FTP). That client has offered me a list of my imac files to launch but my iweb website is not there - and I cannot find it in Finder, to transfer it to imac. In iweb it only offers "save", not "save to". But all saves are successful, as each time I run iweb I get the most recently amended version of my website.
Any help gratefully received.

Unfortunately I'm a real novice and "fill in the publish details" doesn't mean much to me.
iWeb asks for FTP Server (I think it's ftp.nchsoftware.com), username & password - do I invent a username & password.
Classic FTP asks for similar info - do I put the same FTP Server info in? I assume I put the same username (my e-mail address?). I don't remember setting up a password but it says I have and I can't remember it. Have e-mailed nch for password help.
I've spent hours getting this far - it's v confusing for a pensioner like me.
Thanks for your help.

Where are files downloaded by Android apps?

Hello,
I just downloaded 10.2.1 on my VZW Z30 Friday and immediately downloaded DatAnywhere. I was able to logon without an issue, but am curious where the downloaded data goes, as I can't locate it. So where does the downloaded data from android apps go in the file system?
Thanks,
Matt

I'm not familiar with datAnywhere so can't comment on that app specifically.
