Location of Temp Files

Post by arthurlewis »

I made a recording with Amadeus Pro 1.5 and didn't save before I closed my Macbook Pro to put it to sleep. When I opened it again, the machine froze up, and I had to force a reboot. Is it possible my recording is still lurking in a temp file somewhere? The other similar posts I've seen on the forum mention that Amadeus will move temp files to the Trash, but I don't see any there. I've also inspected the "Open Files and Ports" using Activity Monitor, as suggested in another post, but nothing there either. Am I out of luck?

Thanks,

A

It should do that, but only next time you launch it. You can then take the files out of the trash and try to open them with the "Import Raw Data" function.

Sorry, I forgot to mention: I've already launched Amadeus Pro twice now. Nothing new in the Trash. Where is it moving these files from?

The temp files volume given by MacOS X. This depends on the version of
MacOS X, your particular system setup, etc. On my computer the temp files
are typically something like

/private/var/folders/Ad/AdLoZUU7HhaKD4CsvtEp4++++TQ/TemporaryItems/Temp_Amad_000001.amadeustemp

That was the first place I looked. OS X must have cleared it out when I rebooted. Arggh. Thanks for your help!
