Where are the "keep both files" located when restoring in time machine?

I just tried to restore my mac hd using time machine and selected "keep both" instead of replace. Now my mac hd has much less remaining memory and I would like to delete the duplicate files but I can't find them! Anyone know how to find them? Thanks

Hi, thanks for responding. I was trying to restore the whole mac hd not just a file, I thought it would be similar to windows but it isn't. I had 576G remaining on my mac hd now I have 147G. I can't find anything that shows mac hd 1 or original or anything obvious. I had updated a program that seemed to go wrong so I wanted to go back prior to that update. Even after the so called "restore" it didn't go back, it seems to be the same except a chunk of my 1TB internal drive is now full of a copy of the hard drive and I can't find it to delete it and get back my space. Also, I did try a proper system restore using the install disc but the most recent restore point was May 2013! I thought backing up on Time machine meant you could go back to any back up point. Any ideas on how to find the copy of the internal hard drive that is hiding somewhere on my computer? Thanks

  • Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

    Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

    Define "the Aperture files".
    Read this concise guide.
    The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals".  Your Originals are never altered.  What went in is what comes out.
    Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file.  This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture.  There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image.  Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved.  These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original.  They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
    When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture.  "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing".  The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple:  create them by exporting.  Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
    Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom.  Note that I say "transitioning".  You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information.  Adobe provides a tool and some instructions.  I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
    As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
    We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
    If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
    Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database.  Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager:  that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.

  • Satellite L650 - Where are the Office setup files located

    Hey there
    I have a problem with office 2007 on my L650 and need to locate the setup files/cabs to run the setup program again.
    Anyone have any ideas where the files are located?
    Cheers
    BTW the prob with Office is when I click a file to open in office (ie: work.docx) spits up an error saying action only valid for products installed!
    yet the icon is there and everything is installed, this only happened 2 days ago for no apparent reason.
    I tried to go directly to the MS Office folder and initialise word from the 'EXE' and this gave me an out of memory error.
    Tried to uninstall from Control Panel and still a different error came up.
    Anyways if anyone can help please.

    As far as I know the Office is preinstalled on the notebook and you cannot restart the installation furthermore its just an trial version and if you want to have a full version, you have to make a purchase.
    In your case I see just one solution: the unit needs to be set to factory settings again to get Office working again.

  • Where are the Spry Javascript files located in Dreamweaver CS4?

    I am sure this is a trivial question but I cannot find them.
    The Adobe Web site states that Dreamweaver CS4 ships with Spry 1.6. I am trying to create a SpryNestXMLDataSet, but cannot find where the js file is stored, to copy it to my site. I do not see anything in the insert Spry data set wizard that allows me to create a nested XML data set. Thus, I can get Dreamweaver to add the xpath.js and the SpryData.js files, but I cannot figure out how to add the SpryNestXMLDataSet.js file, nor find a copy within the Dreamweaver program files.
    Thanks,
    Van

    Hello Van,
    Dreamweaver only includes the Spry files that can be configured using 
    the DW GUI. As there isn't a nested XML configurator yet, its not 
    included in dreamweaver.
    On Mac you can find the Spry files here: /Applications/Adobe 
    Dreamweaver CS4/configuration/Shared/Spry/
    On Windows its probably something like c:/program files/adobe/
    dreamweaver cs4/configuration/shared/spry/ But i don't own a windows 
    pc so I cant tell

  • Where are the software update files located?

    Because I get charged for my download traffic (don't ask--one of the drawbacks of living in the country), I set my software update preference to download the latest 10.5.4 update. That way I can then transfer the update file to our other computers. However, I can't find where Apple sticks the file.
    Thanks,
    John

    Hello John,
    That ability to "Install and keep package" in Software Update, doesn't work.
    It use to be an extremely useful thing, but now no longer works in Leopard. Instead you will have to download the Update from the Apple site and then you will be able to keep it, and only use Software Update to tell you want you need.
    In 10.3, not sure about 10.4 I could collect all packages, which I would then burn onto a CD. But alas, no more.

  • Just where ARE the site definition files?

    I've just received CS4.  I want to move it to my more powerful laptop when I install it.  I know how to do that and I can move site files, but where are the site definition files?  I really don't want to have to set up each site from scratch.  Is there one (or more) files that are the name, url, location, id, password etc for each of the (many) sites in CS3?

    To import/export site definitions (not site files):
    On the old computer:

  • HT201250 when restoring a time machine backup to a new computer, does it affect the new operating system on the new computer

    when restoring a time machine backup to a new computer, does it affect the new operating system on the new computer?

    That depends on how you do it.
    By far the best, easiest, most reliable method is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up, to transfer your apps, users, data, etc.   That doesn't disturb either the OS or basic Apple apps that came with the new Mac.  See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion.
    There is a facility to restore an entire system from Time Machine backups, including the version of OSX on the backup, but that's for use when your internal HD has been erased or replaced only.  It's not a good idea to restore the full backup of one Mac to a different one.  Depending on the circumstances, the installer may not allow it.  Even if it does, the Mac may not start up, or may kernel panic, or not work properly.

  • Where are the tutorial exercise files?

    Where are the exercise files referred to in the photoshop tutorials?

    Most of the video tutorials on AdobeTV won't have excercise files to go along with the video. If they do, they'll be listed under "Show More Details" in the About This Episode section.
    There are a few resources you can use if you'd like to follow tutorials with exercise files to go along with the steps.
    Lynda.com is a great resource for learning Photoshop. To have full access to the learning tools you have to buy a subscription, but many of their lessons have accompanying exercise files.
    http://blog.fitnyc.edu/technology/2010/11/11/exercise-files-for-lyndacom/
    You might also look into Level Up for Photoshop. It's a plugin that you download and open in Photoshop that guides you through step-by-step tutorials within the actual program. All of the exercise files for Level Up are included when you download the plugin.
    Hope this helps! Good luck

  • How do I change the pre-filled file location when I choose Save As?

    16 September 2013
    Using Windows 7 Home Edition and Firefox 24.0
    I always want Firefox to offer a location when I download stuff. At the moment it fills the Save As file location with a location I never use and it is the same one every time, and I don't know how to stop this from happening. How can I teach Firefox to fill the Save As location with another file location, for example Desktop?
    NB This is absolutely not about setting the default under
    Tools/Options/General/Downloads/Save Files To...
    although everyone automatically assumes it is.
    Background: After using Firefox for a few months on my Windows 7 machine, I then imported old Firefox settings from a VISTA machine.

    You may want to reset the prefs file, it should show the last place you saved a page from.

  • How can I choose the volume which I want to restore by Time Machine? I have two volumes.

    Does anyone know how to restore one of two volumes from Time Machine?
    I have been using SSD and HDD on my MBP.Today, I replaced an old HDD to a new HDD and tried to restore from Time Machine.
    Unfortunately, Migration Assistant couldn't choose which volume I want to restore.
    On Time Machine, I could choose the location, but it was just a copy, not a restore.
    Some files address has been changed, so I have to correct the location for every apps on SSD.
    For example, "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/" has changed to "/Volumes/Macintosh HD//Macintosh HD/Users/"
    I want to make a new HDD be exactlly same as an old HDD, so I don't need to adjust file locations or rename the address.
    Thank you in advance.

    In SCORM-compliant LMSs the "mechanism" for transferring interaction data is via JavaScript variables.  SCORM uses a standard JavaScript API that all compliant LMSs are supposed to understand and interpret correctly.  (I use the words "supposed to" because the reality tends to be that they all interpret the standard a little differently.)
    If this is a "locally developed LMS" then all bets are off.  You should in theory be able to transfer quite a bit of information, but with a home-grown roll-your-own system at the other end, you have no way of knowing how it will handle that information.
    You need to talk to whoever built or is currently in charge of this LMS, hopefully someone with technical knowledge and expertise.  Get them to tell you how much of the SCORM standard is actually supported.  Only then will you know if you can use some more advanced Captivate functionality to pass more scoring information (e.g. interaction data as well as score/pass/fail).
    If your current LMS is truly only able to accept a couple of values, and your customer wants more than this, handball the issue back to them.  They'll either have to upgrade their LMS or revise their requirements.
