Where does iTunes store the custom EQ settings on my hard drive? (OSX 10.6)
Bought a new Mac. I moved over my iTunes library via export and then import. The songs are on an external drive. Everything went perfectly... except for my custom EQ settings.
The songs still have the custom EQs, but the equalizer itself doesn't have those settings anymore.
For example: for quiet songs, I have a custom EQ called "+6" that boosts the overall volume by 6db (far left EQ slider). If I click Get Info on a song with that custom EQ, I can see that it's still there (in the song's info, I mean), but the EQ itself is missing all of my custom EQs.
I have a full backup of my previous hard drive (not to mention that I still have the old Mac). Where can I find those EQ settings? Surely they're in a file somewhere, right?
The last time I did a clean install of Windows on my PC, I backed up the entire iTunes folder on a separate HD partition. After reinstalling iTunes, I copied the iTunes folder back to the C drive and all of the many EQ presets I had created were restored, along with the music. That was in late 2011. I came to the conclusion that this was how you back up the custom EQ settings.
I guess I made a mistake by assuming it would work again this time. Did I? I repeated the process today when I reinstalled Windows, and all the presets I had created did not get restored and now seem to be gone... Is there any way to recover them?
I spent a lot of time tweaking the different frequencies to get them just right and hope to not have to repeat that process.
All of the settings were created using the custom presets, and not on individual MP3 tracks themselves.
(iTunes version just installed: 11.0.2.26)

Where does Spotlight store the info when it catalogs a Hard Drive?
Before I realized it, Spotlight was cataloging 6 hard drive (partitions) that I use for BackUp. Now I'm sure this is taking up some hard drive space, and I'd like to find out where these files are stored so I can trash them.
Does anyone know where they are stored? Can you selectively find one (but not trash my main HD info?)
Thanks,
SteveSpotlight stores its indexing data on the volume that is indexed in an invisible folder named .Spotlight-V100, so it isn't using any of the space on your startup drive. Put the volumes you don't want indexed into the Privacy pane of the Spotlight panel in System Preferences.
BTW, if your backups are on the same drive as your startup volume, that is, you have simply partitioned a single drive to have everything, just in different volumes on that drive, your backups won't do you any good if the drive fails. And they do fail sooner or later.

Hi, on my last PC when transferring music to my new MacBook Pro i noticed i had about 6 duplicated of each song in every album i took hours in removing them.
I Just wondered Does iTunes store the original music file and then copy it into a separate folder?
If i delete the original file from finder will it remove it from my iTunes library or vice versa. I didnt want to lose any music like i have some how managed to on my old computer.
Or should i keep both files of it in the Music folder and also iTunes library folder?
Which is best ?DrewPowell wrote:

It does both at the same time.
When you add files to iTunes, it copies them into /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/ folder. The original file remains where it was.
You can drag a file to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes/ folder.
This will add to iTunes and move it to /Music/iTunes/iTunes media/.
I keep a shortcut of this folder on my desktop then simply drag files to the shortcut to add to iTunes.
Then there are no "extra" files around. -

Where does portal store the username after a successful log in?
We have an intranet application, we use the portal security and login screen, etc.
I have written a stored procedure which requires two parameters. One of them we already have at the time we need to call it. The other is username. All we need
to know is how to get the username at the time we must call it. Where does portal store the username after a successful log in for the particular session this user is logged into?
I tried using the following syntax,
When i log in using PORTAL30 then it returns,
SQL> select portal30.wwctx_api.get_user()
2 from dual;
PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER()
PORTAL30
But when i logged in using some other user i.e.rtemps it returns,
SQL> connect rtemps@mpdb
Enter password: *******
Connected.
SQL> select portal30.wwctx_api.get_user()
2 from dual;
PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER()
PUBLIC
Why does it return PUBLIC, instead of RTEMPS?
rtemps is a Database user though.
How do i test this script for portal users?
Also my application is a multiple user application.
So at a given time, there could be more than user logged in, also there could be more than one sessions of the same user logged in.
what happens in that scenario?
Thank you,
Kalpastill not working..
The first page my user goes to log in, is
http://159.225.218.59/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.draw_custom_login_page
when i look at this stored procedure, it makes a call to the following procedure,
PORTAL30_SSO.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login
and passes a parameter ssousername
From here my user is directed to the home page, which is built using the portlets, the URL for the same is,
http://159.225.218.59/servlet/page?_pageid=255,257&_dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30
This is where i want to pass the ssousername, so as to keep track of what the user is doing.
Question 1: where does this page physically reside, or how do i add the parameter ssousername to this page?
I have 1 HTML PORTLET, on this page, and the code behind this looks like,
<!-- PL/SQL Language Definition Section -->
<%@ page language="PL/SQL" %>
<%@ plsql parameter="i_pagenum" default="1" %>
<body>
<table width = 760>
<tr>
Link 1
</tr>
</table>
In the above code, when they click on link 1, it calls a database stored procedure(rpt_param_prov), which is also a psp page.
In here, i want to pass the parameter ssousername.
e.g. the link should look like,
Link 1
Again this is a HTML portlet, so i don't think it will recognize the psp tags.. so that probably might be another issue.
But this is what i want to accomplish. So i can use the user who logged in, for my audit trail application, which will be inserting a record in a database table, everytime, the user runs reports that are being clicked.. like link 1 in above example.
I don't understand why this is so hard.
When i tried
portal30.WWCTX_API.get_user, it still brings back PUBLIC or PORTAL30_PUBLIC. -

How to make iTunes recognize the music library in my external hard drive after instaIling Yosemite? I tried re-setting the media folder location, but it didn't work. What else should I do?
The issue is not related to the external drive. iTunes Match has difficulties matching tracks ripped fom CDs because they may differ slightly from the versions on sale in iTunes. You can try the match again. Otherwise do a search of this forum. There are already many discussions on this subject here that may help you.

Where does Keynote store the audio files in a presentation
I have slides with individual audio files. When I import or attach the file and then save the presentation, it changes the file name to .mov extension. Where does Keynote store those files? I would like to edit the saved Keynote version, but cannot locate the .mov file!
I'm not exactly sure of what you want to do, and I'm not sure if my answer is the most efficient, or even wholly correct, but here goes ...
When you save a KN presentation (a KN doc) which includes an audio (or movie) file, you can save it 2 (3?) ways: either without or with the file being copied into the document, or as a "package". In a test file I just made with 3 white slides (title, slide with song, second slide with song) the results:
without: 3.8 MB; with: 9.4 MB; package: 9.4 MB. The essential difference, aside from size, is that if saved without, if you play the KN on another machine which doesn't have those audio files on it, the audio won't be there. To make the KN truly portable, you must save with, or as a package. (I'm not too sure of the concept of package in KN. In PP, saving as a package means you end up with a folder, which contains the PP and the media files, each as separate entities. Saving a KN package yields not a folder but a file, which looks to me identical to the result achieved by simply saving with, and seems to behave identically, as well.) The audio file you used will in any case remain where it was before you used it, but, if the KN doc is saved with, or as a package, a copy of it will go into the KN doc.
But then, what do you mean by "edit"? What do you want to edit, the KN presentation, or the audio file within it? If the former, I don't understand where the problem might be. If the latter: using the QT inspector within KN, you can change the length of the audio file (where in the song it starts and stops), whether to start it on click, or automatically after transition, or to loop it. If you wanted to do some other, more exotic audio editing, like reverbs or other effects, I'd do that on (a copy of) the original audio file (found wherever it was before) with another app (GarageBand, for instance), and then I'd replace the first, non-edited, version of the audio file in the KN doc with that.
Have I missed something?
Message edited by gbdoc: maybe someone will chime in to clarify the difference between "saved with" and a "package" -
Where does ITunes store my apps on my PC?
Does ITunes store my downloaded and/or purchased apps locally on my PC? My SSD hd was filling up so I moved all the directories from the C:\...Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup directory to my D: hd and now I'm having a problem getting apps to restore to my IPod that I had to wipe clean and do a restore on. So, I need to know if I moved those apps or what.
Also, is there a way to re-download those apps back to my PC if I did move them?
I need to get this IPod restored back to my ITunes account so all my apps will be associated back with this IPod.iTunes playlists are stored within the library database iTunes Library.itl. Perhaps you need to create a m3u playlist for use with your other software. Right-click on the playlist name in the sidebar for export options.
Or use iTunes to manage the content on the device in the way that it is designed to.

Where does flash stores the local shared object data
HI All,
I'm using shared object to store local data:
var so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(storageName);
// Store the data
so.data.userName = userName;
so.flush();
Where does it actually saved on my hard disk (in windows vista operating system).
10x,
Liorhttp://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Live Docs_Book_Parts&file=lsos_087_3.html
The term local refers to the location of the shared object.
In this case, Adobe Flash Player stores the SharedObject file locally
in the client's home directory.
When you create a shared object, Flash Player creates a new
directory for the application and domain. It also creates an empty
*.sol file that stores the SharedObject data. The default location of
this file is a subdirectory of the user's home directory. On Windows,
this directory is the following by default:
c:/Documents and Settings/username/user_domain/Application Data/Macromedia/Flash Player/web_domain/path_to_application/ApplicationName/objectName.sol
If you request an application named MyApp.mxml on the local host, in the Flex context, and within a subdirectory named /sos, Flash Player stores the *.sol file in the following location on Windows:
c:/Documents and Settings/username/user_domain/Application Data/Macromedia/Flash Player/#localhost/flex/sos/MyApp.mxml.swf/objectName.sol -
HT1414 where does Itunes store previous backups in a Windows 8 environment
I'm trying to restore from a previous back up and I used to be able to locate them in Vista - but I haven't been able to find all the previous backups in Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key. -
Where does iMovie store the individual clips?
I know where iMovie stores the project file (which has all the clips inside it), but where does it put each individual clip itself? I want to edit them using another program, but the only way I can do it for now is by opening the project file and exporting each individual clip.
Hi Steve
My bet is that it will crach Your project.
I would if satisfied with my editing. Copy back to Camera to TWO new miniDV
tapes. Carefully secure that there is a great overlap - say several minutes.
(Why - errors on miniDV tapes are more common in beginning and end of tape)
Then when ready - delet the movie project and - re-import tapes into a
new project.
ALL editings will be un-undo-able. So this is a nerve shattering experience.
Alt. Get a big external hard disk !!! Mac Extended - formatted !!!
Mac Exchange / DOS / UNIX formatted WILL NOT do.
And copy the movie project to this for further editings or just to store it.
(I don't use "Empty - trash" in iMovie even if several in this forum says that's
not so destructive as in previous versions of iMovie)
Yours Bengt W
