Essentials.xml missing - how to restore?

I had to reinstall my Creative Suite 5.5, and after doing so, when I try to start Flash, I get the following message:
The following panel layout is missing or could not be read:
/users/myusername/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Flash CS5.5/en_US/Configuration/Workspace/Essentials.xml
The application will not have a correct layout. Please load one from Windows ->Workspace
If I OK the error message, Flash loads, but there are no panels and if I try to open a file, I get a "Failed to Open Document" message.
Any ideas how to fix this? I'm on a MacOSX.
Thank you!
Julia

After Updating iBook on my ipad , Some PDF files missed . how should restore them

After Updating iBook on my ipad , Some PDF files missed . how should restore them?

Your posted question is the key to your answer - sync them back to the iPad. You can still connect the iPad to your PC, launch iTunes, select your iPad name from the left side under devices - then go to the apps tab in iTunes and select all of the apps to sync again.
Make sure that the Sync Apps heading is selected as well. If you make changes to the app configuration, click on Apply in the lower right corner of the iTunes window.

Can anyone tell me how to restore my itunes library and playlists? After I downloaded mountain lion my library is missing and my devices can be synced to only one library ...the missing one

That .itl file actually is the library -- at least the critical part of it although the library is actually many files and folders.
Try starting iTunes and immediately hold down the option key. When it asks, guide it to the .itl file.
It's really hard to say without being able to poke around your computer. Upgrading should not delete the old library, but still it happens to the very, very few which is why we make backups before updating. If the old library file is gone then so are your playlists. You can always see if the following is of any use:

I used this to restore my deleted notes from Time Machine, hope this helps others
closed Notes,
turned WiFi off,
entered finder/go+option/ to 'get to library': /Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Notes/
entered TM and selected the 3 files/ hit restore/ keep both (just to make sure, then I deleted the newer file, not the 'restored' file when this worked out)
opened notes and my deleted notes were back so I copied my notes into pages as a backup,
turned on WiFi and the notes disappeared!
replaced my restored notes by copy/pasting my backups into notes/iCloud....
notes/mac would not show across iCloud.... don't remeber this being an issue prior to Mavericks when 'all' notes were selected?
Apple needs to hear from us so they can fix glitches like this. TM was created for instances like this, hopefully this is just an oversite. Pass this along to Apple Feedback/iCloud/bug. If enough of us flag such issues, hopfully it's addressed on the next update.
Dear Apple, this should be much easier than it is. We should be able to open Notes, go into Time Machine, and restore anything regardless if it's on my Mac or on the cloud.

Can not open dreamweaver due to missing menu.xml file, how do I fix this problem?

@alicia - We have seen such issues before
Allow me to quote David Powers from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1192197
The menus.xml file is normally in your personal configuration folder. Before going to the trouble of reinstalling, try deleting your configuration folder. Details of how to find it are here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494812.
When you launch Dreamweaver, it should build a new configuration folder.

* If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
* Make sure that the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

Database restore from backup--miss some transaction log backup files.How to restore?

One database with full recovery model
it runs full backup at 12:00 am on 1/1 one time.
Then transaction log backup every 3 hours. 3:00 am, 6:00am,9:00 am, 12:00 Pm, 3:00Pm,6:00PM,9:00pm,12am......
If we can't find 3:00 am, 6:00am, 9:00am transaction log backup files, could we still restore to 6:00am? We still have all transaction log backup files after 12:00Pm.
Thanks

NO..log files are incremental and connected.If any log file is missing you cannot restore to point which comes after backup which is lost or damaged.Like u miss 3 AM trn log backup now even if you have 6,9,12 AM trn log backups its of no use .

How to restore old prefs, etc after clean reinstall of 10.3.9?

Due to a fiasco with Drive Genius I was forced to reformat and reinstall 10.3.9. Luckly, I was bright enough to manually copy over the entire contents of the drive to a firewire drive before I started the drive genius project.
I was able to find directions on how to restore my users which worked perfectly.
I've copied all the apps back. But all the apps were in the main drive rather than in users, so the prefs, registrations etc are, I assume, stored in the old library.
Is there a way to replace the new library with the original to avoid several days work digging out the original packaging to get the serial numbers for re-entering so I can get back to work right away?

The serial #s, etc were in fact in the original main library. I was able to restore the use of all the programs by manually replacing the missing items in each folder in the library. It took over an hour, but I got it all back and saved me from having to rummage through storage boxes for the original documentation to retrieve and re-enter all the info.

"index.xml missing" • Do I laugh, cry, or scream?

After a variety of hardware problems with my iBook (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1523536&tstart=0), I have a new software-related problem.
Some of my Pages files are acting up on me. When I try to open said files from Finder or from inside Pages I get the "index.xml missing" message (I'm using the iWork '08 demo version I downloaded today--I can't access the multiple licensed copy of iWork on the install disk from my IT guy until tomorrow).
When I open the package contents of the problem files, sure enough--there's serious data missing. How could this have happened to some of my files by not all of them? (Hierarchy/where the files are located within my Documents folder doesn't make a difference. All the files were created by the most recent version of Pages too....)
Am I totally screwed?!? Please tell me there's some way to salvage my files.

Hello
I met this kind of behavior when I tried to use from account B a document created in account A.
As I am most often playing safety, I had a backup but I know than even if we repeat million times "computers are not perfect so, always keep backups", users will continue to miss this rule … until they loose some important data.
I don't know which kind of code removes the Index.xml.gz files so I'm not sure that a file recovery tool would be able to revive them.
You may try to use one of them but I can't guarantee the result.

Lightroom - how to restore backed up files (not Lightroom catalogue) from one external drive to another?

How to restore backed up files (not lightroom catalogue) from one external drive to another.
I recently backuped my photo files from one external drive to another. The backup (carbon copy cloner) pointed to some corrupt files on the original drive.
I have deleted those files and am finding good copies of them in Time Machine backups.
I want to get rid of the original external drive; use the recent backup as my main external and then back it up onto a brand new drive.
What I am not sure about is how to point lightroom to the backups so it knows to look on the new drive instead of the old drive and all those exclamation marks and question marks go away.
There are close to 60,000 images in numerous folders all with one 'parent folder.'
My best guess is from Lightroom Help - Create and Manage Folders - Locate Missing Folders
Can I point to the one parent folder and all the subfolders will come back?
Is this the process to recover files into lightroom and will there be a problem with so many photos?

How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks

How to restore files from Time Machine after Clean Install of Mavericks. I know the data is there but seems unaccessable because I may have changed the Computer or Owner name. Is there any way to fix that now?

Hi Linc,
my back-up data is managed by Time Machine; the actual data is on a second internal Hard Drive with a capacity of 1TB - not partitioned. I am using Time Machine and have access to all data backed up since Mavericks Clean Install but not the data prior to this date.
When I open the 1TB drive in Finder I can see a folder "Backups.backupdb/Sigi's Mac Pro/ followed by many folders of backup dates going back to 2010-09-20-103441 and up to 2014-02-07-142414 all followed with folder Macintosh HD. February 7th 2014 was the date of the clean install.
These Backups are followed by backup date folder 2014-02-08-075554 with a subfolder of MacPro-320GB (this is the name I assigned to my Boot Drive during formatting; I suspect I should have assigned the same name as before ie. Macintosh HD) and 2014-02-11 with a subfolder Macintosh HD, these are the ones I get access to by way of Time Machine > Restore.
Weird thing is on Febr 11 when I relised my possible mistake and renamed the Bootdrive back to what it was initially ie. Macintosh HD despite this I have access to all backup data since the Clean Install in both folders MacPro-320GB as well as Macintosh HD but not to any data prior to the Clean Install.
Is there something that Time Machine knows and prevents access or is it simply a matter of renaming the subfolder 2014-02-08-07554/MacPro-320GB to ........./Macintosh HD?
I like to restore selectively and not everything - It was hard work reinstalling apps that were supposed to be the troublemakers (ref my discussion on Maverick problems) but I now need to get onto data specific to some of these apps as well as other data I may have missed. Long story? Yes and sorry.

Lost all my playlists and some music - how to restore?

I'm running itunes on XP and when I booted iTunes today, all my playlists were missing and lots of music.
I don't know of any major crashes or problems with my maching, but the music is gone from iTunes. I went to "mycomputer" and actually found all the tunes, but iTunes cannot find them, and of course, I lost all the playlists. (I've got multiple playlists for each family member and 2 bands in which I play....)
Any ideas on how to restore the playlists and tunes? Why won't iTunes find the music that is actually in the iTunes music folder? I know i could probably drag all the tunes into iTunes again, and then make new playlists but it would take a lot of organizing......grrr
Also, I have almost everything saved on my iPod. Is there some way i can transfer it all back to iTunes from my iPod?
thank you,
