Where are the temp files?

My wife was working on a powerpoint presentation in the newest version of Microsoft Office and it just closed. Where would I find the temp file? She did not save it. Is it gone? What do I have to do to make myself her Superman in instances such as this?

Hello skin:
The Microsoft Office help has information about the autosave feature. I use Office, but have never had to recover. It appears that the process is automatic and that the temp file is deleted when you close the program. There is a note that this feature is not a substitute for periodically saving a 'work in progress.'

  • Scratch Disc Full: Where are the temp files kept?

    Hi,
    I just tried to open a few of very large image files (9GB in total) and when I did I got the message "scratch discs full". Now I understand why that happened, but it seems to have eaten a whole load of disc space that wont come back. I've since closed photoshop, restarted my Mac, etc. but about 10 GB is still used up where it wasn't before. I can't locate any temp files anywhere (prefs only tells me the scratch disc is my Mac HD, not which folders it's in). Can anyone help me with this? Where are Ps temp files usually located on a Mac? I need those 10GB back!
    Mac OSX running Photoshop CS3
    Thank you!

    Hi again Chris (or anyone else who cares to contribute),
    My Mac's HD space continued to disappear and I have now, finally, located the cause (I think). I checked the system log (Stystem Profiler/Software/Logs/system.log) which was itself 4.5 GB in size (too large I think?). However, when I went to the file location (/var/log/system.log) I also noticed that the "asl" folder (in the same folder as the system log) was 20 GB in size!! Having read a few forum posts about similar issues, I took the risk of deleting both the system.log and the majority of files in the asl folder. This seems to have worked a treat (I now have 25GB returned to me).
    As I said in my original post, this all started happening when I opened a few very big Photoshop docs (ones with layers). Do you have any idea what caused / is causing this to happen? I haven't opened Photoshop since deleting the asl files, but new ones still seem to be appearing in the asl folder. They are tiny (100KB at most) but I'm a little concerned I haven't fixed the problem. Any suggestions?
    I can't see why new asl files would be appearing when I haven't even opened Photoshop.
    I'm running on OS 10.5.8
    Many thanks,
    Matt
    P.S. By the way, the size of the system.log seemed to be caused by a repeated message regarding RealPlayer, which I assume is unconnected, but I have included it below just in case (I've removed RealPlayer from my Mac to see if that helps, but the asl files still seem to be appearing):

  • Where are the audio files located?

    You know how when your video source is missing, it shows that ! with a yellow triangle around it? Then, when you hover over the !, it shows you where iMovie expected to find the video, and then you can just move the video there and it's fixed. But for audio, it doesn't show you where it is supposed to be located when you hover over the ! in the audio file (music green bar).
    So, where are the music files supposed to be located so that it can find them?
    Thanks!

    To the best of my knowledge, iMovie simply links to the music file from wherever it is located in your system. That could be the iTunes Library, your Desktop, an external drive, or other places. So if you move the music to a different location, I assume that iMovie will lose track of it. iMovie doesn't actually import the music to the project - it's just referencing it (as far as I'm aware).
    If you know the name of the track (or tracks, or artists), try doing a search both within iTunes and on your hard drive using Spotlight. If found, the best solution is probably to drag it again into your project, then do the necessary edits if applicable.
    Note that, in iMovie the music tracks are identified by song name - it's shown at the beginning of the green audio bar. So the songs shouldn't be too difficult to track down. It's just a pain having to re-instate them.

  • Only sequences, where are the media files?

    I recieved a project that has only sequences in the browser, but in the seqences, the edited clips are there. Where are the media files? I'm used to having the media files in my browser with my sequences. Since I have sequences but no media files, I'm not sure where the media is that the clips (in the timeline)are pointing to. I know where my source files (QT) are. just not sure where the media files that represent that

    If you are working from the same volume as the original projects, or at least a volume with the same name and folder structure then you are fine. If you want, you can select all the medial files in the sequences and drag them to the browser if it helps you to see what you have. Personally, I think if you are not changing any of those sequenced you're just as well to leave it as it is. Are you seeing video when you play those SD sequences? If yes then they are already pointing to the original media. FCP doesn't create its own media unless you render, and even then, it still uses the original in that process. So if you can see the video, you're all set. It's when you see those white clips in the timeline that you have to worry.
