Blank File Info panel after osx archive and install (CS5)

Hi,
After osx archive and install I get a blank File Info panel (into AI, PS, ID and other CS5 applications), how could be solved this??
Best regards, Robert

Hi,
solved by full remove/install CS5.. but how could be restored correct access rights?
Also replied me Vikas.Sharma:
Create a new text file named XMP.cfg (make sure the extension is cfg and not txt).
The only text that needs to be in that file is as below:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/XMP/Custom File Info Panels/
Restart the Adobe application and check the File Info panel again.
You need to copy that file to /Library/Application Support/Macromedia/FlashPlayerTrust (create the directory if not already there)
but, why osx archive and install isnt working fine with flash?
The only troubles (solved) are quicklook flv contents and XMP file info panes into all CS5 applications, could be solved next time by a short and fast procedure?
Best regards, Robert

  • How do I get my addresses back after an Archive and Install procedure?

    I recently had to archive and install because something was really wrong with my desktop. Now the desktop works fine but how do I get my address book application to open with all my former data in it? The address book application opens but there is NOTHING in it except apple's card and my user card? What I am asking is how to restore all my data after an archive and install procedure. Thank you in advance!

    Yes I archived and installed with the disk that came with my MBP and then reinstalled snow leopard and then did software upgrades....
    you shouldn't have done that. if you wanted to reinstall snow leopard (why btw?) you should have just reinstalled it over the existing snow leopard installation directly. installing an older OS version over the newer one ( like leopard over snow) is not recommended by apple and can lead to problems. it also does not let you preserve users. your old home directory should be located inside the Previous system folder. see this link on how to extract your data from it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2196
    specifically, for the address book you need to copy the folder homedirectory/library/application support/address book from the archived home directory to the corresponding location on the new one.

  • Lost files after doing Archive and Install

    After I did Archive and Install I went to the home screen and all my files were gone. Where are they save? I'm not talking about my applications, I'm talking about documents and iTunes music,etc.
    Please help.

    I assume you did not check the option to preserve users and network settings when you did the Archive and Install. You will find everything in the Previous System Folder.
    See How to get files from a previous home directory after Archive and Install.

  • What to do after an Archive and Install operation?

    Hello:
    Near the end of a hard drive defrag on the laptop using Drive Genius, something (I am not sure what) caused the computer to shut down before the defrag had finished. Most of the hard drive info. ended up in a folder called Lost and Found. The Directory probably got damaged.
    The only solution I could see was to do an Archive and Install operation. The laptop had been backed-up, but the backup was not very current.
    DiskWarrior brought the laptop back to life. Some information and apps were manually dragged over from the backup copy. I now have the unsavory task of having to sift through a thousand folders in Lost and Found folder to see if there are any large chunks of folders/files which are salvageable. If I can determine where the files belong, I will drag them there.
    Meanwhile, I have a former System Folder in the "Previous System" Folder. Inside is a file named 'mach.sym' and three folders named 'etc, tftpboot and var'.
    QUESTIONS:
    1. How does a person reclaim the former System Folder back into the rebuilt Hard Drive?
    2. Any helpful suggestions or comments .... are we doing the right things to get the laptop back into shape?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the assurance note; I will go ahead and trash the former System Folder. I assume the re-installing program dumped the former System Folder into a new folder in order to get it out of the way so that a new System Folder could be installed. I did not remember that the old folder needed to be manually hauled to the trash.
    As there are now quite a few folders missing their former data files, I suspect these files are gone for good. So far it does not appear that anything absolutely critical is missing......other than my sanity for being so lax in maintaining scheduled backups!

  • How can i fix blank "File Info...." in Photoshop CS5?

    I wanted to add metadata to some of my photos. However, when I attempted to open "File Info" there was nothing in the dialogue box. It was just empty. Is there a method for fixing this apart from reinstalling Photoshop?

    This might also have something to do with your graphics card.
    I don't have cS5 loaded, but it might be close to what CS6 has  There are some differences in the acutal panels between the two, but that might be in relation to the swf files.  The main file structure looks something like this:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\XMP\Custom File Info Panels\3.0 with these folders under 3.0: AMT, bin, custom, panels.  There are no files under this folder.
    Under the "panels" folder there are all the folders of the tabs: Advanced, audioData, camera, categories, description, dicom, gpsData, history, IPTC, IPTCExt, mobile, origin, rawpacket, and videoData.
    Under each of these are folders: bin and location.  And the one file manifest.xml.

  • Multiple iTunes Libraries after an Archive and Install

    I recently did an archive and install. I have virtually no disk space left now.
    For instance I have an iTunes Library in my Previous System folder that is 11.88 GB and now I also have an iTunes library in my current set up that is 11.33 GB.
    I would think these folders are duplicates, so why might the newer Library be a smaller size?
    In short, what files and folders can I trash in my Previous System folder so I can reclaim my Hard Drive?

  • Nikon RAW rendering engine (SDK) missing after an Archive and Install.

    I apologize if this is not the correct place to post this, but I could not find a relevant thread.
    I am a Nikon shooter and use Expression Media 2 to catalog all of my images. I use it because it is the only app I have found that retains the file settings that the camera embeds. For example I could set my camera (a D300 BTW) to shoot in B&W and when it is placed in EM2 it retains the B&W characteristics. Other apps will render the very same image in color, ignoring what the Nikon D300 has placed in the file.
    I don't know why EM2 is the only app I have found that does that, but it does.
    Here is my problem:
    I'm on an Intel iMac. I had to do an "Archive and Install" and I have lost the Nikon RAW preview (it was ok before). When I select "Manufacturer" in the rendering prefs I now only get a small thumbnail view. The Apple engine works fine but it's slower than the Nikon engine and does not keep the file parameters.
    I hope that is clear.
    Can you help me get the "Manufacturer" engine working again?
    I checked in the "CoreServices" folder in my previous systems folder but it doesn't seem to be there. Am I looking in the right place? I even did a search with no results.
    I was advised to post in this Discussions Forum from an Apple Tech.
    Thanks!!!

    Thanks for your response. Yes I had that checked but...It's working now!!! I don't understand? I did nothing but work on a web site from the time I posted until now. I'm the kind of guy that likes to have an explanation and it will drive me crazy because I don't know what happened.
    ...pass the peanuts.
    Thanks again.

  • Not finding any info or tutorials on "archive and instal"

    I can't get to the desktop and I've tried disk Utilities . I need more info on "archive and instal"
    please

    Thank you Thank you

  • IPhoto 7.1.1. not launching after an archive and install of OSX 10.4

    Dear everybody,
    after some bad hassles with kernel panics on start up I had to do an archive & install as a last resort.
    Turned out to be pretty easy and worked fine - as recommended I started trying all 3rd party hard-ware, but instead of that IPHOTO (fully updated) seems to have troubles launching. It shows up for a second in the dock jumping, then vanisches again. Command-option-clicking doesn't open it, either.
    Should I uninstall/drag to trash my iPhoto application and do a customized re-install from DVD?
    Will this affect the iPhotoLibrary file that is containing all my pictures? Furthermore, will re-installing cause any changes in my preferences?
    Can I do a reinstall by dragging an older version/update onto the newest?
    Thanks for any help!
    BTW, I did update 10.4. to 10.4.11 before trying to launch iPhoto.
    Cheers!

    Dear Terence,
    I followed your guide:
    -Ensure that you have the latest version of the OS and Quicktime.
    Ensured
    -1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    Minor issue - repaired.
    -2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    Don't have that file! Only a com.apple.iLife08.plist in theat directory. I did not delete it, otherwise other iLife apps are also troubled.
    -3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
    Did that - still no launching of iPhoto.
    -If none of those work, Post the Crash Log.
    No crash log present.
    More ideas?
    I'll try the next answer now.

  • Files missing from library after archive and install

    Hi forum folk
    any help you could give would be much appreciated.
    I can't seem to verify my permissions on HD. I have run disk utility both from finder and from my OSX startup disk and consistently get the error message "Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue." I then reinstalled the operating system all together making sure to archive and install as well as archive previous network and preference settings. This means I am running 10.3.4 at the moment (and I can't verify any of the software updates at the moment). After reinstalling I still cannot verify my permissions, so now I am trying to back up all my files so that I can reinstall the OSX again, erase everything, and start from scratch. But I'm running into some very strange problems while doing this. select files are missing from ~/library. there is no Safari file, for example. I tried looking in HD/previous systems/library where my library files were saved before I reinstalled the operating system but there is no such folder in there either. this means all of my bookmarks are gone. additionally, under library/preferences (in both the old and new library folders) there is no file named com.apple.itunes.plst. so all of my itunes playlists are gone as well. these are the only missing files I have found thus far and i can't explain why they selectively would not have been saved after the archive and install. Everything else seems to be intact. Any ideas?
    thanks

    my HD has a capacity of 8.85 GB available. When I reinstalled panther I had little more than 3 GB available (I deleted a bunch of unneeded things since then)
    Thanks for this update. What is the total formatted capacity of your HDD? I ask because I suspected that you might be cutting it pretty close. The rule of thumb is that you should have 10-15% of your total capacity available as free space. My personal rule is 15%-20%. This allows for more efficient perfomrance of OS X.
    I am in the process of backing up everything on my seagate combo USB 2.0/firewire 200 GB external (I am using the firewire cord)
    Having an up-to-date backup is one of the primary rules, often observed more in the breach than not. Since you have an HDD that supports Firewire, I suggest that you make a bootable clone of your entire HDD using SuperDuper. You can then use this backup as an emergency boot drive. However, it must be Firewire, as PPC Macs don't boot from USB devices.
    I also have heard that it is advisable to reinstall the OS "every now and again" and I hadn't done this for at least two years. was I ill-advised?
    Most experienced Mac users never re-install, except under dire circumstances. Since installing my new HDD in this computer I have never re-installed. Re-installation is the utlimate intrusive measure, and it exposes one to all kinds of issues, from lost data, to flawed installaton, to installations that fail midstream. Re-installation is not an effective maintenace procedure. Here are some helpful links in terms of maintenance:
    Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System maintenance
    Macintosh OS X Routine Maintenance
    Maintaining OS X.
    I'm going to restart now and try and verify my permissions again using the procedure on the above link. I'll let you know what happens.
    Instead of verifying permissions, just go ahead and Repair Disk Permissions. Verifying permissions does nothing, and wastes your time, as it is difficult to tell whether you need to repair, and you have to repair anyway.
    Do post back with an update of your progress and any further questions or comments.
    Good luck.

  • Blank iTunes library after Archive and Install

    My PowerBook G4 suffered a catastrophic crash and after advice from Apple support, the only way I could restart it was to perform an Archive and Install. Before this, I couldn't start the machine and therefore couldn't back anything up. Everything seems to be all right after the Archive and Install except that my iTunes library is completely blank, and the old library is not anywhere on the hard drive. All of the songs are still on my iPod - is there any way to get them back into the library? I don't want to connect the iPod and lose everything I have now.
    Thanks!

    From the Keyboard Shortcuts in the iTunes Help menu:
    iPod shortcuts
    Prevent iPod from automatically updating when you connect it to your computer
    Command-Option as you connect the iPod to your computer (hold the keys down until the iPod appears in the iTunes Source list)
    After that, use an application like Senuti or iPodRip (latest versions on versiontracker.com) to transfer the contents of your iPod to the computer.
    Hope this helps.

  • XMP data not showing up in the custom file info panels when upgraded to CC

    For several versions of Photoshop, I have been able to use a modified custom file info panel to input, update, and track psd files. With each version of photoshop there are always some changes in the way the object data is handled. The lastest challenge is:
    1. XMP data not showing up in the custom file info panels when upgraded CC from CS6.
    2. Raw data is not visible in CC in the File info panel.
    3. This occurs in new documents where we create the xmp wrapper while the file template is built.
    4. When metadata is manually entered into the file, the data is not added to the XMP wrapper when it is recreated on the save.
    5. When a file that was created in CS6 is opened that contains the Metadata in the file info template. It is visible. the Raw data is also visible. Once the XMP wrapper is recreated - write and then close. The data is no longer available. the Raw data will not pull up in the file info panel.
    Any feedback or a direction will be appreciated.

    I have a script that the user runs to input xmp data into a Customized version of the generic file info panel. it is data that is gathered from the user when the psd file is created. once the file is open in photoshop. the information is visible in the File info panel , the raw data, and as a schema addition in the advanced tab.
    in CC the nodes and the children of the XMP packet have changed positions. so that the XML -this.XMP.child(0).appendChild(this.createNode())
    is no longer the node that can be appended.
    Where XML.child(0).elements().length(); would enable the xmlns to be added in CS6
    <rdf:Description xmlns:phsa="' + this.namespace + '" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" rdf:about="" />'
    it is visible in CC as namespace in a different arrangement. XML.child(0).child(0).namespaceDeclarations().toString()) and the children are  XML.child(0).child(0).elements().length().toString()); There are now 7 child nodes where before there were 1.
    with all shifted, the initialize of the values and the delete XMP packet wrapper and create new or the amend to the XMP packet wrapper is undefined.

  • Is there a date entry widget for XMP custom file info panels?

    Looking through the Custom File Info Panels documentation, the samples, and the default info panels presented in Photoshop, I can't find any reference to a date entry widget - the closest I've seen is the date_static_text widget.
    Is there any way to present an editable, validating date entry field to our end-users through the File Info panel?
    (the info we're wanting to store is a release date so it's user-specified, and not derivable from the file in any way)

    Mark,
    The PDF/A extension schema provides a big step to the self-sufficient functionality that you are asking about. It permits the XMP schema description information of custom XMP schemas to be embedded into the XMP as payload so that the file can be opened in years to come and the target metadata acurately interperted. Currently, PDF tools are active candidate to make use of this facility. However, there is nothing preventing future use with other file formats, and other tools (via plug-ins?).
    It does not include vocabulary, static text, and panel presentation layout information.
    http://www.pdfa.org/doku.php
    It defines a "known" subset of standard XMP properties from the 2001 XMP Spec. Everything else is "custom".
    You could craft a custom File Info "template" with the PDF/A extension for your custom XMP fields. Then import the template into each file.
    The PDF/A extension schema itself is implemented with multi-dimensional XMP arrays. MetaGrove Plug-in dialog screen shots can be viewed on http://www.poundhillsoftware.net/Acrobat.htm

  • Restoring after archive and install

    after using 'archive and install', what is the proper procedure for restoring applications, plugins, etc?
    1. manually copy?
    2. migration assistant?
    3. reinstall using disks/installers?

    If they are only in the former system you forgot to to preserve your user settings.
