Changed file names, now can't update files

Help!!!!  I switched the names of my files this morning to the domain name that I've purchased. Doing so, however, appears to prevent me from updating my pages. Now, when I click on Modify>Library>Update Page, I get a message that reads, "Error Acessing file... file not found (error code -43)" .
I *think* the problem is with the template name. The 60 pages that I first designed were built on the original  template name, "2000." All of these pages continue to say "Templates/2000_template.dwt" at the top of the pages, as this snippet shows:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/2000_template.dwt" codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="doctitle" -->.
I'm guessing that, because I have changed the name of the template (as well as the file it's stored in), the child pages will not recognize the new template and subsequently not allow me to update the page.
How do I get out of this fix? I can't change the template name on each page, as it's in a noneditable region. Do I have to backstep and rename all of my files to the original (and now incorrect) name I was working off of?
Thanks to anyone who can help.

I think that what you may have done is either change the filename for your template outside of Dreamweaver or you have broken the link to the template.
I do rename some templates on my websites to keep things neat, as sometimes I "inherit" websites that are poorly constructed. I have two that are entirely tables-based and they are five-fingered boogers (the kind you can't just flick off easily). These tend to come complete with clients who don't want to pay to have their websites redesigned. No extra charge for that option.
You can try doing a Modify>Templates>Apply Template to page for all of your pages and it might help a lot to automate that: Open a page that needs to be attached to your template, Go to Commands>Start Recording, pull down Modify>Templates>Apply Template and choose the template, stop your recording then pull down Commands>Play recorded command for each page you need to reattach the renamed template to.
Another cause here is that you may have inadvertently changed the path to the template. If you do renaming and moving from within Dreamweaver the links to templates are not supposed to break -- but sometimes this does happen.

  • I've changed AppleID and now can't update Apps. Help!

    I've seen lots of discussion on similar lines but don't seem to find any solutions. To be clear, all I've done is follow instructions from Apple regarding how to change AppleID. I did this as old email account was about to become obsolete. Which also means I can't just change back. When I now try to update Apps, the password popup has the old AppleID hardwired. If I sign out and in with new AppleID this does not change. I don't recall any warning from Apple that changing my AppleID would create this problem. I am now dead scared that it is being treated like a new account which will also cause me problems with music downloads etc. From the amount of similar complaints online I would not seem to be the only victim here. Does anyone have a clear answer to this?

    On your iDevice, make sure you first log out then log back in with the updated AppleID.
    Settings > Store, tap the account name then Sign out and Sign in.
    The AppleID used to purchase the item is embedded into the item at time of purchase.
    If you have simply updated your AppleID, just use the current password when the old AppleID shows up. You don't need to (and cannot) change the AppleID to the new AppleID.

    Hi Jamjoint,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
    It sounds like your Apple ID is used for both the iTunes & App Stores and iCloud. If you edited that Apple ID before signing out of the iCloud on your devices, it may be necessary to edit the Apple ID back to the original email account so that you can sign out of iCloud. Once signed out, you can edit the Apple ID back to the new email account and sign back in. Please use the attached article for further information.
    If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • Upgraded to Yosemite,  Created new apple ID as couldn't remember last one now can't update iPhoto receive message this update not available for this apple Id either because it was bought by a different user or item refunded or cancelled.

    upgraded to Yosemite and now can't update Iphoto or Imovies receiving message this update not available for this apple ID because it was bought by a different user or item refunded or cancelled.  Is there an easy fix

    Unfortunately, anything obtained at the app store remains tied to the Apple ID used to obtain it forever. You will either have to start over with your new ID or try to recover the original ID.

  • Changed Apple ID, but can't update it on iMac

    Hello,
    My apple id was created before I had any apple products (using itunes on pc), and I just used a spam email account.  Years later, I wanted to update it to an appropriate email address, since I now have an iphone, imac, ipad, etc. 
    With a little magic and curse words, I got it changed successfully on my iphone and ipad.  But I am unable to get it to change on my iMac.  I get notifications often that I need to enter the password, but I am powerless to make it work. 
    I have Yosemite 10.10.3.
    On the iCloud panel I am trying to "sign out" and delete the account - and that goes okay until it wants a password to turn off "Find my Mac" - I've tried both old and new passwords, but nothing works.  I tried logging in to the icloud account online and going to the "find my" section, but there is no option for removing the computer from the find tool.
    What can I do to update the apple id on my computer? 
    Thanks!

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.
    If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • Downloaded Yosimite, now can't update apps. Keep getting this message "This update is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought  by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled

    I downloaded OS X Yosimite and now I can't update my iPhoto. I keep getting this message "This update is not available for this apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled". None of this has happened.

    Contact the Support personnel at the App Store via the link shown in this screenshot.  Only they can handle this problem.

  • Just upgraded and now can not update contacts

    I upgraded to the new iPhone software last night and now can not edit contacts.  Help!

    Hi icsailor,
    This sounds like a known issue reported here:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713014
    There was a workaround posted, but I've not tested it myself. Here are the steps.
    # Go into Yahoo Messenger Options - Change the Window in the dropdown to Tab and press OK.
    # Then go back and switch it to small window and press OK.
    Once the bug is officially resolved, you could try running a Nightly or Aurora build to use the fix early.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Changed iPhone name, now have two sets of iCloud bookmarks

    Hi,
    I recently restored my iPhone 5 and also decided to change the name from the default.  I now have two sets of icloud bookmarks, one from the old iPhone name and one under the new name.  This is present on both my iPhone and my Macbook Prp.  How do I get rid of the iCloud bookmarks under the old iPhone name? 
    Thanks,

    Well, I restored my iPhone again and used the first name, then deleted icloud from the phone.  Restored again with the second name and that got rid of the duplicate phone bookmarks.  I did the same with my Macbook Pro but I still have the bookmarks left from that one, even though it was the same name.  I'm trying to find a way to just wipe everything from iCloud and start fresh.

  • I changed my ID now I cannot update the change to my IPod device

    I had to change my ID due to no longer having that email and now I cannot update it to my IPod devices to make any purchases!! What do I do ??

    - Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • Dual users = iPad & iTunes confusion, now can't update podcasts

    Hello Apple Community:
    I bought a first-gen iPad, and my wife connected it into her Macbook while she was signed in to her iTunes account, in order to give me some her iPhone apps.  As a result, the iTunes on the iPad initially logged in with her user info.
    Since then, I have subsequently connected my iPad to her Macbook, but sometimes while I was logged into my iTunes account on the iPad, and sometimes while she was logged into her iTunes account on the the iPad. 
    For lack of a better phrase, I feel like this has resulted in some Macbook iTunes confusion, and she is now constantly seeing pop-ups asking her to authorize her iTunes account on her Macbook, when she already has, and now she cannot update her podcasts.  (I'm sure there are some other issues we are not seeing as well.)
    Is there anyway to remove all traces of my usage from her Macbook iTunes account, so that there is no overlap between users?
    Thanks!

    You could try starting totally anew...
    Before wiping your iTunes account off, restore your iPad as a new device. That will take everything off your iPad (Should do the same with iTunes)
    So no account, no device. Then you can go about re-doing you're own library for your device.
    However I've not had a chance to test this myself, so can't comment on it's success. An Apple expert should be able to help if you're in need of better advice than mine

  • New id now can't update apps

    I recently moved and had to change my email address.  I updated it in iTunes and ICloud today.  Also downloaded ios8.0.2.  Now I need to update all my apps and it's asking for the password for my old email.  I used the same password for my new email, but it doesn't work when I enter it.  Old email is listed as an alternate email, so it's still in there.  I have iphone 5.  Thanks.

    You need to log out of the store, imessage, facetime and icloud, then log in with the new ID and password. See: Change your Apple ID

  • Back to iTunes 4, now can't update iPod

    I got rid of my iTunes 5 and Quicktime 7, then reinstalled iTunes 4. Now I can't update my iPod, it says "The sotware required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software." I tried reinstalling it already and nothing happened. Any suggestions of what I need to do?

    Here's what I suggest... (And B Noir on these discussions is very good at solving these types of problems). I owe a lot to him for getting me back on track!
    I UNinstalled Itunes and Quicktime. Re-booted my system. Downloaded Standalone version of Q7. Save to hard Drive and load from there. Don't install from Web. Re-boot. I then installed my version of ITunes from Disk (V4.1?). re-booted. Then downloaded V5 from web to Hard Drive again and installed from there. (Do not install from WEB) Re-booted.
    When I hooked up IPod it prompted me to upgrade IPod software. After doing this, not only was I up and running, but it re-populated my Library and I was good to go. Also very important, make sure your anti-virus software is OFF!
    Good Luck!

  • I recently changed apple ids on my iphone and now can not update or download any apps

    Ok...that kind of makes sense to me.  I logged out and logged back in and am trying to update the apps that were downloaded under the old name.
    Why is it not allowing me to download any new apps though under the new name?
