Something has changed on the Upload Scores system. I have been doing it successfully for many years, but in the last couple of weeks I have run into a problem. I cannot identify where my uploaded MIDI files have been housed on the server. There is no problem with the pdfs, as I can click on the file name and then read off the server address. But if I do this with a midi file, I just get playback. The address used to appear in the bottom left hand corner when the file name was clicked on the upload screen - but this facility seems to have disappeared.

What do I do, as I now have a number of uploaded MIDI files whose whereabouts are unknown!

Hi Mike, a software upgrade was run recently, and possibly it changed the way some files are accessed, but it may also have to do with some changes in your browser or a new player you installed on your computer.

Anyway, the file address is not really important anymore. There is a trick where you just use the file name instead of it:

Instead of writing: Just write: Regards,
Carlos

Hi Mike,

I think you can retrieve the address by reaching the MIDI file page through the "Recent changes" or the "Upload log" pages. As an example, I tried using last MIDI file you uploaded a couple of hours ago, and I found its address at http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/images/0/0c/D105-App2.mid. I have to check whether something changed on the upload page, anyway reaching the file page through the "Recent changes" or the "Upload log" pages may be a solution for files submitted already.

Guys, Thank you for your speedy response. Thanks to you I have found where these files were lurking and posted them on the composer and works page. I tried the shorthand method suggested by Carlos, but it would not work for me, so I have put them in the old fashioned way.

Thanks again

Mike

Hi Mike, you just made a typo, that's why your first attempt didn't succeed; check in this link:

Thank you Carlos. My mistake!
