Duplicate folders NAME~1 appear in PSE9 Elements 9 Orgainser folder view

I am running Photoshop Elements 9 (PSE9) in windows7 and I am having a problem of apparently empty duplicate folders in Organiser's folder view (thumbnails on the right, Windows Explorer type folder list on the left).
A new apparently empty folder structure has appeared on in the folder view, identical to my main set of photo folders but containing no thumbnails and with a truncated folder name, eg DigitalPhotos becomes Digita~1 and FamilyandFriends becomes Family~1.  If I delete any of the apparently empty subfolders in the duplicate folders, it deletes all the real jpgs from the hard drive and they show up as a missing file when I click on the proper thumbnail in the proper folder. It would appear to me that the catalog is referring to the same underlying file at two points for my whole catalog.
As the folders are apparently empty there is no ability to use the delete file option and uncheck delete file to delete only from the catalog
I have tried..
- catalog optimise
- catalog repair anyway (no faults found)
- catalog repair rebuild visual similarity index
- deleting the thumbnail file from ProgramData\Adobe\etc. then rebuilding all thumbnails (took hours) - I thought this had solved the problem when I checked very late last night but it wasb back when I turned on the computer this morning.  I am now questioning whether in fact this solved the problem or if this was my imagination/ lack of sleep
They clearly shouldn't be there and I am concerned that double-links to the same underlying file will cause me corruption-related trouble.
Any ideas?  I am really concerned the whole thing is going to crash on me and erase endless hours of work.
Thanks
Kimberley

  • Duplicate file name suddenly appearing in audio stems

    I have a FCP project that I've been working in that includes sequences with Dialogue, SFX and Music audio stems cut in (as .wav files). The Dialogue stem is mono and is not affected by this issue. The SFX and Music stems were imported as SFX L, SFX R, Music L, Music R. After lining everything up, I panned the SFX and Music stems and stereo paired in FCP to keep the tracks together and in sync while we made additional picture changes.
    Months have passed working in these sequences and I have just noticed that the Stereo SFX and Music stems in my current sequence all seem to suddenly have the same name. In other words, SFX L and SFX R both display SFX R in the sequence and Music L and Music R both display Music R as their file name in the sequence. Isolating each track and playing back confirms that the SFX L and Music L are still being referenced... FCP has just decided to call them SFX R and Music R instead.
    Has anyone else had this experience? It seems to be some sort of corruption in the metadata or something. I ran a quick Audio EDL and everything looks correct... SFX L and Music L do come up. If I turn off stereo pairing and go to the item properties for these tracks, FCP will let me rename the file name to be correct again. Does anyone think this is worth doing? I don't want to end up with a corrupt project.
    We have been duplicating sequences and copy/pasting video and audio to/from different timelines. Perhaps this is how this issue started... I have other reels in this show that this hasn't happened to.
    Thanks for any advice!

    It's probably faster and better to perform a match frame of the files in question, and re edit them over themselves. Just to refresh the names and references.

  • PS elements 6 (folder view)

    In PS elemenents 5 I was able to view pictures by folder name. I was unable to do the same in PS elements 6.
    Is it possible to organize/view pictures by folder name in PS elements 6? If yes, how?

  • Lightroom 4.3 Duplicate folders being created on import

    Hi, is anyone else gaving issues with duplicate folders being created with Lightroom 4.3 on import?
    When I import photos, they go to a folder with a name "XXX" for example.
    The folder is in a hierarchy of "2013, March, XXX".
    Lightroom creates a folder  here and above 2013! It is making a mess of my library.
    Also, when I import using Photo Mechanic (great software that just works!) and then do a "synchronize folder" in Lightroom, only 1 photo is transferred.
    Is there a fix for these bugs?

    It looks to me as though you've fallen victim to the "capitalisation" issue....in your Folders Panel your year folders names have the word "LIBRARY" in capitals, yet in the screenshot of the import dialog you are importing to "LR_Library_2013". I guess at some point you changed the capitalisation, and although the OS doesn't distinguish between the two formats, Lightroom unfortunately does.....so although all the images/sub-folders are within the one actual year folder, Lightroom sees them as two different parent folders.
    So which one is the correct format as shown in Win Explorer? I'm guessing the lower-case version? If so, the quickest way to fix this is as follows:
    1. Backup your catalog.
    2. Create a root level folder on the C drive, call it whatever you want, say "Capitals Fix".
    3. Right-click on the "LR_LIBRARY_2013" year folder in the Lightroom Folders Panel and select "Update Folder Location". In the file browser that then opens, browse to and select the "Capitals Fix" folder on the C drive.
    4. Don't be alarmed as the 2013 folder will disappear from the Folders Panel, "Capitals Fix" will appear but all the sub-folders that were listed under 2013 will now have "?" marks.
    5. Now right-click on "Capitals Fix" in the Folders Panel, and again choose "Update Folder Location". This time browse to and select the correct "LR_Library_2013" folder on the A drive. You may get a "Merge" dialog box, select "Merge" and everything should resolve itself.
    6. Repeat if needed for the 2011 and 2012 year folders, though as you're likely not importing into there any longer you may not encounter the problem.

    If the OS is saying they're in use, they are. That message indicates that something on the boot drive is linked to the other disk or vice-versa. Quit all applications and try deleting again. If you get the same message, you'll have to track down what's open. One way is to launch the Terminal.app in /Applications/Utilities/, type in this command, hit the return key, and get the /dev/disk information for the attached disks:
    df -h
    This is an example of what you should see:
    /dev/disk0s10 52162400 35274040 16888360 68% /Volumes/<name of other HD>
    Then, enter this command, hit the return key, and peruse the output for the culprit(s) on that other drive:
    lsof /dev/disk0s10
    The only thing that should be listed is something like this, but that shouldn't prevent the disk from unmounting.
    Finder 260 username 27r VDIR 14,20 68 425847 /Volumes/HD/.Trashes/501
    If there are other processes and open files, you'll have to stop the processes. Launch Activity Monitor, check the process number that's running (in this example it's Finder w/process #260), select it, click on the Quit Process button, and click on the Quit button in the dialog box that pops up. Now, try deleting the folders.

  • Cannot use duplicate table name error in AMDP

    Hi Experts,
    I'm developing an application which has the following architecture
    SAP UI5->Gateway->ABAP Managed DB procedures(AMDP)->HANA SP(Stored Procedure)
    We are having a very peculiar problem where the gateway service works inconsistently for the same input data.
    i.e If I execute the same service n number of times, I get the results successfully for say n-3 times but the other 3 times I get a "RFC Error :Error while executing Database procedure"
    There is no change in the input data or DB table data during all the executions.
    Running the stored procedure stand alone in HANA studio works all the time.
    We tried executing the AMDP from SE24 and the same behavior occurred.
    When trouble shooting we found that the exception occurs inside the AMDP when the call db procedure statement is executed.
    Could you please advise what could be the possible reason for this any tuning parameter/unavailability of db connections?
    Or could you please suggest some other troubleshooting mechanism by which we can zero in on the cause?
    When I go in the debug mode I can see the exact error as
    cannot use duplicate table name:  [288] SAPXXX.ZCL_PLAN_MAINTENANCE=>GET_COMP_TYPE#stub#20140905055908: line 15 col 3 (at pos 492): cannot use duplicate table name exception:
    where ZCL_PLAN_MAINTENANCE=>GET_COMP_TYPE is the AMDP class and method. SAPXXXis the schema.

  • IOS 8.1 Mesages/Text Message Forwarding - Duplicate Computer names

    I just upgraded to iOS 8.1 on my iPhone 6.  On my IPhone, when enabling Text Message Forwarding to my devices I noticed that my Mac's (15" MacBook Pro 5.1 Late 2008 with Yosemite) computer name appeared there twice. As expected, only one of the two duplicate computer names was successfully activated (switched to green) for text message forwarding,
    I had recently changed/edited the Computer Name of my Mac in System Preferences/Sharing panel.  The duplicate names that appear in Text Message Forwarding is the previous/old name and the existing name of my Mac described above.
    Is there a way to delete the old name from appearing in Text Message Forwarding by changing something on my Mac, such as editing or deleting a plist?
    Thanks in advance for any constructive assistance, comments or suggestions that can help me fix this.

    Problem solved! 
    I changed my iCloud password and the duplicate device names (ghost devices) disappeared from Settings/Messages/Text Message Forwarding on my iPhone.
    I hope this helps somebody with a similar issue.

  • Podcasts broken in 9.2 with error "A duplicate file name was specified"

    Ever since the 9.2 upgrade my podcasts have not been able to update. The following error message is displayed when I click the icon next to the podcast:
    +There was a problem downloading "... podcast name ...". A duplicate file name was specified.+
    Digging in the iTunes download directory I see that a directory entry is created for each podcast (with a .tmp suffix). Inside there is a download.mp3 that is zero bytes in size.
    I've tried reorganizing the library, restarting, reinstalling, etc.
    Not sure if this matters, but I've been mounting my itunes library via nfs for the past five years or so without any issue.
    I tried to see what iTunes was up to via dtrace/iosnoop but it appears that they've gone and restricted that at the OS level -- so no luck there. Any luck here?

    Close iTunes, delete the download directory, and restart.

  • How can I fix incorrect connections caused by duplicate file names?

    I have many slides, scanned over the past 10 years, with duplicate file names and filed by date.  I converted my Elements 9 from PC to iMac and many incorrect connections occured.  Is there a way I can correct these connection errors?  This problem involves about 5% of my 25,000 photo files. 

    Duplicate file names don't mean duplicate files for the Organizer, there are other criteria like folder location, pixel size, date taken.
    I assume you are using the catalog conversion process in the organizer : do you get a message saying some files are already in the catalog?
    Did you use the recommended way for the migration from PC to Mac?
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
    Edit,
    Also, with PSE11 and PSE12, many users think that people tags and pictures are not imported because they don't use the new categories panels and don't see them immediately.

  • OC4J  10.1.3 WSA -assemble "Duplicate type name" error

    I am trying to expose a Java class as a web service using the WSA tool assemble command. The return result of one of the methods is reasonably complex and includes two variables the classes of which both extend the same base class e.g. (bean bits missing for brevity)
    public class Value extends DatasetMember {
    private double value;
    public class Text extends DatasetMember {
    private String value;
    When I attempt to assemble the web service wsa spits out
    Error: uk.gov.ecoconnect.webservices.datatypes.DatasetMember - Duplicate type name "uk.gov.ecoconnect.webservices.datatypes.DatasetMember" for Java type "{http://uk.gov.ecoconnect.webservices.datatypes/}DatasetMember" found. To remove this error do not specify a single typeNamespace for all value types or specify a mapping file. This error could also be caused when an erroneous type has been used more than once.
    If I use AXIS against the same classes I get at correctly generated wsdl file.
    Is there any way to get wsa to generate as wsdl that utilises the <extension> element?
    Is there an alternative OC4J mechanism that I could use to achieve this?
    I'm guessing that if the answer to the above questions is no I guess I'm going to have to move to using AXIS instead.

    Hi Tzhang,
    Thanks for the udpate.
    What spcific changes you made to make this work? can you please share that with us?
    By looking at the exception, it looks like it's failing when trying to clear the datasource connection cache. I even opened the admin_ejb app. All it has is some MDB using JMS queues. But I didn't find any datasource references in that application.
    Regards,

  • Duplicate folders in photos - the solution

    Starting with iOS 5 I was frustrated that I had what appears to be duplicate folders in Photos.
    The iPhone one, Photo Library, and the one that I sync from on my computer.
    Both had the same pictures
    Problem solved....
    It turns out that if you add a sub folder to the one on your computer you sync with (Wallpaper, Family, or whatever)
    you will see "Photo Library" which will contain all the pictures from the folder you sync with and
    "Wallpaper", "Family", or whatever folders below it with only the pictures you place in this sub folder on your computer.
    In otherwords iOS5 expects you to break up the pictures in the folder you sync with into focused catagories.
    Neat...
    Be sure you have "All folders" turned on when you sync

    This has been the same since day one with iOS 1.0 with the original iPhone.
    All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are stored in the Photo Library. Photos in the albums or folders below include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. Photos on the albums or folders of photos below are not duplicated as in taking double the storage space.
    This way you can view the photos in an album or folder only by selecting the album or folder, or you can view all photos in all albums or folders by selecting Photo Library.
    A photo cannot be in an album or folder without being in the Photo Library.

  • Dynamic UIs: Error: Duplicate variable name

    Hello Friends
    I am facing one difficulty in dynamic UIs and i.e. whenever I want to add some more Dynamic UIs to the existing one it throws error like "Duplicate valriable name".
    I am having my code in wdDoModifyView
    Whatever I want to show in the start I put that code in if(firstTime) and whenever I am adding something I put that code in if(!firstTime).
    I also used view.resetView() but that too didnt worked.
    Can anyone gimme some idea how to get rid of this problem on adding some more dynamic UIs.
    Help me

    Hi Vivek,
    Check this link..
    http://help.sap.com/search/highlightContent.jsp
    One small idea..
    use a global varaible say count....
    in the wddomodifyview
    .createElement(IWD<"UIElement">.class,"<UIElementName>"+count);
    count++;
    so when ever you add new element it will have different id's

  • Duplicate folders?

    I downloaded and installed Photoshop Elements 11 as well as Premier Elements 11. They seem to run okay although I just tried some very simple things.
    Maybe I did the installation poorly but...
    Now on my desktop are two folders 'Adobe Premiere Elements 11'   and   'Adobe Photoshop Elements 11'
    In addition, in 'Program Files / Adobe' there are two folders with the same names as above, although with very different looking icons.
    I would like to clean up the desktop. Can I move the folders somewhere and/or can I delete them?
    Thanks for your advice, in advance.
    DKK

    On the desktop the "Adobe Photoshop Elements 11" folder has two subfolders,
    PSE 11 
         This one has "ElementsOrganizer" "ElementsSTIInstaller" and "EISetupPrerequisites" folders plus about 100 other files, some very small and a few quite large.
      and
    ReadMe
         This one has about a dozen small readme type files
    The second desktop folder, "Adobe Premiere Elements 11" has a similar structure for the subfolders.
    In the Adobe folder in Program files I also see the folder
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11
    It has many subfolders as well as a couple hundred files.
    Ditto for
    Photoshop Elements 11
    Those latter folders don't look anything like what is on the desktop.
    I would like to either move or delete the desktop folders, if possible.
    Sincerely, DKK
