Can't repair broken links

Hi
I've got 267 broken links on a single page, all images.
there seems to be no difference between surviving links and broken links,
I have tried to fix the links in the link inspector and the properties panel, which failed.
I think this might take a long time to repair, so I don't want to go down any wrong paths, especially with me being a relative newbee an all.
The page in question is here:
http://denchworthponds.co.uk/Pond%20Construction.html
It's an image heavy site in which every image has
a thumbnail, a thumbnail rollover and a large lightbox image that activates when the thumbnail is clicked
122 links are OK, 267 links are broken.
I didn't notice before I uploaded the site as it looked fine in 'preview in browser'.
perhaps the problem is in my code - I hope so.
Could it be one of the following?
1/ the photos are in image folders within the image folder on my local site, is it bad practice to have folders within folders on my local site? (i've got loads)
2/ since saving(for Web and devices) the images to my local site, I have opened many of them again in photoshop for image alteration, I was checking for an increase in file size while I was altering the images, but didn't see any. Then, of course, I saved them back in the same folder with same name etc. Was the problem that I merely saved the images, and did not Save for Web and devices? - they were already optimised. (some images were altered manually, others using the Actions pallette)
3/ Some of the folder names are probably not DW friendly, for instance;
the file pond6thumb4 is in my folder 12pondbuild6 4/11,
DW reads that folder as                   12pondbuild6 4%3A11 -is that the problem?
(-and, as I say, that folder is inside the Images folder on my local site)
The real mystery to me is that 122 links are not broken and I can see no difference between the surviving links and the broken links. It all seems a bit arbitory.
I'm running CS5.5 on a 2007 iMac duo-core desktop.
Any thoughts anybody?
thank you for your time and greycells in advance
- Shaun

Find and Replace should be able to manage that quickly.
Find: (in source code): %3A
Replace: (blank) or a hyphen ("-")
Rename your folders manually in the operating system.
Or, use the DW Files Panel:
Rename each folder and let DW manage the renaming of the links automatically.

    Greetings,   I am attempting to repair all broken links for a assignment in Dreamweaver CS5  C7  and I could not find any instruction in the text  on how to repair broken links.. How is it done?

    The simplest way is to remove old links and insert new ones via the link field in your properties panel.

  • Can't resolve broken links

    Hello everyone! I am hoping that someone will be able to assist me. I am working in RH 9 and i have received the following error when i select to resolve my broken links. "You cannot resore a topic that would be outside the project folder. Please make sure feferences are to the project folder then try restoring the topics." Can anyone assist with this error? I have checked my folders and the source and line files are in the correct folders. Thank you in advance.

    Is the source topic showing in Project Manager or just Windows Explorer? If only the latter, you need to reimport it into the project first.
    You also refer to "line files". What are they?

  • How can I repair broken raw files after restoring  a PSE 11 catalog to a new PC?

    I recently purchased a new PC so a performed a Catalog Backup on the old PC and then restored it on the new PC.  All the files are there, however, all of the RAW files are not accessible.  They show up in the catalog with the broken file icon and cannot be opened.  Is there anyway to repair the RAW files without having to do a complete backup and restore again?   CW

    Thanks for the quick response.  If ACR is the Raw PlugIn I checked that and my camera is supported by the version I have.  I have been working with RAW files before with no problems.

  • Repair broken link between shared review pdf and server?

    Two weeks ago my coworker renamed the folder on our server in which our shared review pdfs are stored, not realizing she would break the link between all the shared review pdfs and the server. I've been trying to find a fix to restore that link, but I can't seem to find a way to do it? Is there a way? I have about 20 pdfs that I now cannot see the comments that were published prior to the break in the link.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    You renamed the hashed folder name on the server?!!  Unless you can remember that exact hashed folder name then you won't be able to recover the comments the normal way.  You can scan through the XML file and find them and then re-apply them with the text contained in the file, but that's about it.

  • Can't delete broken links in iTunes

    I tried to import my music collection over a network into iTunes on my new MacBook Pro. I only got a small percentage of my collection with lots of duplicates, so I deleted everything to try again. Now the songs are gone from the Music folder, but still showing up in the Music section of the library with an exclaimation point in the first column for every one of them. (I disabled sharing on the network, and that's where iTunes is looking for these songs.) I can't delete any of these. How do I delete everything and start fresh? I want all my music stored locally, not linked over the network.

    Update-- A reboot solved the problem. Now when I choose to delete them, it works.

  • How can i remove broken links automatically from my bookmarks

    I have a huge list of bookmarks and i detect that several of the websites do not exist anymore. Is it possible to automatically remove these ? I know that websites can be out-of-service temporarily, but i take that risk. I remember that older browsers (Mozilla ? Netscape ? ....) had such a feature

  • I recently downloaded is x mountain lion and while it finished it erased all my data, some of which I need. When using disk utility I found my old data but it says corrupted. I can't repair and while restoring the error code 32 Broken Pipe appears. Help?

    My data I need is on my computer but it needs to be repaired but can't and when I try to restore it/back it up it ends abruptly with error code 32 broken pipe.
    It was damaged while installing os x mountain lion and I found my data on disk repair (utility)

    Sounds like your hard drive is badly corrupted, likely due to problems that were already there when you started trying to install Mountain Lion. The problem is, if you don't have any backups already, you may not be able to recover all your data from this state. Do you have backups of that data already?
    If not, I assume when you say that "it needs to be repaired but can't," you mean that Disk Utility tells you there is a problem with the disk, but that it is unable to repair it? If so, you can try repairing the drive using DiskWarrior, which can repair problems that Disk Utility cannot. That may give you access to your data again, but may not.
    Also, it's important to understand that if your data is not backed up, everything you do with the computer runs the risk of overwriting or corrupting that data. You may want to go straight to trying to recover your data. See Recovering deleted files.
    Regarding the error code, if you're trying to back up the drive using Disk Utility's Restore tab, note that that is often not successful when the drive you're trying to back up is corrupt.
    Once the situation is resolved - either because you have backups, are able to recover your data files or are forced to accept that they are gone permanently - you will need to erase the hard drive and reinstall the system and all your apps from scratch.

  • How can we remove podcasts with broken links?

    The organization I work for has some old podcasts (2011) listed in iTunes; the links to all the MP3s are broken. No one in the organization has any idea who posted these items in the first place, so needless to say, we have no idea what account they're linked to. We'd just like for those podcasts to stop appearing in iTunes -- is there a way to flag the broken links so the podcasts don't show up any more?
    Thanks in advance.

    The feed for that is still up at
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/RichardRohrHomilies
    Ideally you should remove it, which would ensure it being removed from the Store (a cached version would show until they removed it) - however you will need the login to Feedburner to do this, which presumably you don't have. In that case you can only hope that the fact that none of the media files can be accessed will be sufficient.

  • I had a broken link by registration adobe ID and can't authorisaze my reader now

    The registration site for adobe id digital editon givew a broken link. But give the e-mailadres a id, but I can't see the ID

    There are a couple of things I see here.
    First, registering your copy of ADE with Adobe is necessary to assure that
    the software will work with libraries.  Now that you've done so, ADE's ready
    to go.....
    Next, the error getting license message can refer to the digital rights
    management (DRM) software that is used by the library.  Some other people
    have figured this out, and here is a blog entry that may help:
    http://technology.myblogzone.info/2011/01/how-to-solve-the-error-getting-license-message-i n-adobe-digital-editions/.
    There are several different software packages that are used by libraries,
    but all have a common function that will expire a loaned ebook after a
    certain time.  That's great because you don't have to pay fines for overdue
    books.  And it can mean that, if you can't access your download, it will
    expire without you having to do anything to it.  I've read some posts here
    that say it may be difficult to check out the same ebook again, because the
    electronic license information gets messed up, but I don't have any
    experience with it.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I restore files from TM backups with broken links?

    I have Time Machine backups with broken links all over the more recent backups.
    I get the message "The alias “xxx” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found." whenever I click on one of the links.
    I have made the backups on my external usb backup drive before before upgrading my internal disk to a larger one.
    Two questions: 1) How can I recover the files?  2) What happened, how can I repair the backup if possible?
    The sequence of events was: Made the latest backup.  Apple ran extended diagnostics overnight at the store and did a reinstall of the OS (10.8.2).  I passed on restoring the backup and went to an authorized service center and had them put in a new tera-byte drive.  I deleted (in the star-wars display) the oldest two and a middle backup leaving the Aug, Oct, and latest Nov. backups.
    Now I see 100's 1000's of bad links.  If I look at the backup (just look) with finder I can see directories for July and Sept in addition to the ones I didn't delete.
    It appears that the files are probably all there and I could recover them a few at a time if I poke around.
    I am tempted to do this before trying to repair the disk.  Yes, it will take me ages; but I would rather take the time than a chance at doing -Anything- that could even possibly make things worst.  I can see 3 senarios and wonder if anyone can say what would be best. And by best I mean **Safest**.
    1) Go in TM to the Aug backup that seems to have no (or maybe only a few) broken links and restore that; then move in TM to newer backups and restore one folder or file at a time on top of it.
    2) Do the same thing with a restore of Aug but then use the finder to copy newer files from the backup disk to the new disk.
    3) Do essentially the same thing; but do it all in finder.
    Of course that still begs the question of what happened and if the backup can be repaired; but to me, that is secondary to getting the data back.
    fyi- I have looked at the TM hints and debug-repair file.  I realize I can try a repair disk but I am tempted to try to get the data 1st unless someone is Sure a repair won't mung the data more.
    Thanks

  • A LOT of iTunes broken links/tracks after Music folder move...

    So yeah, I'm getting a TON of broken links / dead track links in iTunes after having to do two things to my iTunes install recently and I'm at wits end trying to fix it.
    I keep my iTunes Music Folder on an external and share the iTunes library between my work Macbook Pro and my home Macbook. Every Friday I drag my iTunes folder and all contents from my MBP onto an external and replace the iTunes folder on the 'weekend' MB, then do the same back on Monday. I keep my iTunes music 'View' as 'Date Added' so that I can always be listening to whatever is newest. It's how I roll.
    Well, this week I had some data problems during the transfer and had to use a previous week's iTunes Music Folder, which was fine as I hadn't added much this week.
    I also got a new external because the old one was getting a little shady, so after doing the iTunes Music Folder replacement I moved my music all over to a new external drive, told iTunes where it all was at. iTunes did it's thing, 'organized' my stuff and all seemed good - until I got back deeper into the catalogue of music and started getting a LOT of broken tracks. The songs are still there, in the correct folders and all, but for some reason iTunes isn't finding them.
    When I say a LOT, I mean so far it's hundreds of my 13,000 songs.
    Now I COULD use the 'Super Remove Dead Tracks' script from Doug's to find all the broken files then re-add the whole library, but it will add all the old songs out of order because they will get a new 'Added' date.
    I could also manually move thru my whole library holding down the arrow key for 'Next' to find all the broken links then go thru, select them, and use the 'iTunes Track CPR' script from Doug's to re-add them to the library with ratings intact, but still they will be out of order time-wise.
    I cannot find a script that will parse my library, find broken links, and re-associate them with their tracks, nor can I figure out why this happened and any other way to fix it. Repairing permissions hasn't helped. Any other ideas?

    Just to follow up with a more comprehensive example of looping through a Library to detect & repair "missing" file-tracks:

  • Broken links with index keywords

    Using RH 8, I have 20 broken links associated with index keywords. can someone advise how to easily get rid of these broken links?
    Many thanks

    I assume you are talking about links to index keywords rather than unused index keywords. If so, you have references to those index keywords somewhere inside your project. Your options are to repair the links or remove the references. If you right click on each broken link there are options to Edit, Restore and Show References which will help you find out what is going on.
