Clear Project Cache option .cpd

Hi,
I'm using RH8. When my project was taking forever to open up, from past experience I knew it was due to a large .cpd file. Sure enough, it was up to 11 MB and after deleting it, the new .cpd file is only about 1 MB now. Opens much faster now. RoboHelp 8 has the option "Clear project cache (.cpd file) before opening any project". By default this is not checked off. If I check this off, will this put a halt to the issue of getting large .cpd files? Any reason not to check this off?
Thanks!

When I use the Clear Project Cache option .cpd, I also get tons of broken links.
The only solution that I have found that works for me is:
1. Make a backup of your project.
2. Delete the CPD file and the XPJ file.
3. Then, open RoboHelp and from RoboHelp, open the HHP file.
When you use this method, the conditional tags are usually gone from the Conditional Tag pod. All you have to do is add new conditional tags with the same name as the conditional tags that you had in the project.
You can open the last backup file and make a list of the conditional tags, then add them to your project.
Good luck,
Debbie

  • Clearing Project Cache - RH9

    The help says the General tab includes an option to clear project cache before opening a project.  I don't see it on the General tab under Project Settings.  Please help me find the option.

  • Safe Practice for Clearing Project Cache in Cap v.5

    Does anyone have a documented safe practice for clearing the Project Cache for Captivate v.5 projects?  Adobe has a fix for clearing cache for multiple projects in one step, but I'm wondering when is the best time to clear cache for a project.  My concern is clearing the project cache and then not being able to recover the project if the file get's corrupt (which is the original purpose for the cache in the first place).
    I've already done this once where I cleared the project cache and then couldn't open the file, then I didn't have the cached project available to recover the project.  Now I'm understandably a little gun-shy when using the Clear Cache option, but the alternative is to deal with a large amount of my computer storage being used for a bunch of files that I probably don't need.
    If anyone has the recommended list of steps and in the correct order, I'd really appreciate it.

    I don't know that there is any "documented safe practice" for when to clear the cache, but if you have Cp5 set to create backup files as well, even if you DO clear your cache, you should be able to recreate your project by renaming the backup file.
    I've been using Cp5 every day since it was in Alpha and I've only ever needed to restore a project from cache once.  In that case, my PC crashed while Cp was open and corrupted a project file.  But Captivate 5 has crashed plenty of times over the past year for one reason or another and yet I've never lost any more than a couple of hours work at worst.
    You are most likely to need this project restore feature if you've made the classic error of working from files stored on a network drive instead of your own hard drive.  If you only work from hard drive, install all the latest patches, keep your drivers and OS up to date, turn on the Cp backup file option, plus keep backups of all project files outside your PC, this is all the documented safe practice you need.
    Clearing the cache seems to solve quite a few otherwise baffling Cp issues.  I think you are more at risk by keeping the cache full than by clearing it.

  • Clearing Googles cache option is gone? Anybody know if this will change?

    Since we can no longer clear Google's cache, what are we to do if I simply want to erase a search item and forgot to use private browsing? I don't want to erase any other history. I frequently use the Google Cache for that reason only. Sometimes friends want to borrow my computer, and I don't need them seeing everything I searched for today, and don't want to erase my entire history before letting someone check their emails here. I need a place on my computer I can do a search and not worry about it being found out.
    Anyone know if Apple will fix this soon? or what other options we have, perhaps another browser or way around this issue. Seems a more than a few people are affected by this.

    this happened once before in an earlier version of safari. right now your only option is to clear history. not the best option since many of us find our history file quite useful.
    so you either erase history or wait until apple restores the erase recent search function.

  • I am having a hard time with a page that is working for everyone else. When I click on anything in the site I get a message that says "The page you were looking for doesn't exist."  This is happening on both my ipad 2 and my iphone 5. I cleared my cache

    When I click on anything in the site I get the message " The page you were looking for doesn't exist."  This website works for everyone else, but not on my iPad 2 or iPhone 5. I cleared my cache and history on the iPad, but it still isn't working.

    I live in Germany and my credit card is in my native country of Holland .. then it
    doesn't accept my credit card.
    Your first statement explains the second statement. To use the German iTunes Store, you need to prove that you're a resident of Germany (that is required by the content owners who will not allow cross-border sales) and the only way Apple can provide such a verification is by requiring that you enter in either a German credit card or a German-purchased iTunes prepaid card. Since I presume the former is not a possibility, you'll need to do the latter if you wish to purchase content from the iTunes Store. Again, this is not Apple's choice but is forced on them by the content owners as a requirement for Apple being allowed to sell the content. The EU is working on regulations that would force the content owners to allow access pan-EU, but that's still in the works.
    You do not need an iTunes Store account to activate and run your iPad, though; at least, I didn't need one for either of my two iPads. If you only want to set up an account so you can get free iPad apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is apparently critical. This seems to come and go, or only apply to App Stores in specific countries, so you may not see the option for "None" when asked for a payment type.
    As to the German iTunes Store in English, you can comment to Apple on that via their feedback pages:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Regards.
    P.S. Regarding "this is the only place for a complaint and that will no doubt get removed because
    I'm not full of happy joy sparkles.
    As stated in the terms of use to which we all agreed, this isn't a complaint forum, it's a technical support forum. You don't have to be full of "happy joy sparkles", but posts that are nothing but complaints may indeed be removed. If you want to complain to Apple, use the feedback pages.

  • When I click "Clear now" to clear the cache, nothing happens, no acknowlegement the the cache is cleared, and I need to know whether the function is working.

    login problem at an arts forum... login works at other sites.
    I can't log in. They gave me a new password and were able to log in with it, doesn't work for me. They suggested clearing cache.
    I removed a cookie from that site, and tried to clear the cache, but suspect I was unsuccessful. When I go to the login, after attempting to clear the cache and removing cookie, the login form is immediately filled in with a password, which could be the old one or the new one, they are unfortunately the same number of letters.
    How do I get the cache clear if the edit preferences thing is not working?

    As a quick test for cookie or cache problems you can try to switch Private Browsing mode on to see if that allows to log in.
    You can either use Tools > Start Private Browsing or set a check mark in:
    * Tools > Options > Privacy: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
    To see all the History and Cookie settings, select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"<br />
    Do not forget to exit Private Browsing mode after you have finished the login test.

  • Where did the Empty Cache option go?

    I recently did a software update for Safari and the Empty Cache option under Safari in the tool bar is no longer there. I use this ALL the time, any idea where it is?
    Thanks!

    Apparently it's been omitted from the latest Safari update however you can enable the Develop menu and clear the cache from there.
    From your Safari menu bar top of your screen click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now from the menu bar again click Develop > Empty Caches

  • How do I clear the cache in my MacBook Pro 10.9 Maverick

    How do I clear the cache in my MacBook Pro 10.9 Maverick operating system? Can anyone provide step-by-step instructions. I'm a big dummy when it comes to this sort of thing.

    Hey DrSteveMc,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines where the cache folder is stored. Note that the Library folder is hidden by default in OS X Mavericks. To access this folder, hold down option when clicking the Go menu in Finder:

    If the issue does not appear to be related to preferences, a login item, or a kext file, and still persists in Safe Mode, there may be an issue with a cache file in your home folder:
    1. From the Finder's Go menu, choose Home.
    2. Open the Library folder.
    3. Drag the Caches folder to the desktop.
    4. Attempt to reproduce the issue.

    9. Attempt to reproduce the issue.
    10. If issue is resolved, drag the Caches folder to the Trash.
    11. If issue persists, go to step 4.

  • I have the latest version of Firefox. How do I clear my personal info and then clear the cache?

    I have the latest version of Firefox. It is: Firefox/3.6.13 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729).
    I got a page that said I needed to clear my personal information, then clear my cache. It said I could do that in the "tools" menu. The "tools" menu has no such option.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Thats' all well and good, but FIREFOX crashes when I click on those links. I'm not doing it again. Heck with it.
    Am going to TRY and get my old version of FIREFOX back.
    If it were not THIS problem, I'm sure I'd be having another problem because I've had nothing BUT problems since I "updated" my browser, the way my neighbor says you are supposed to.
    Thanks anyway, caldwell418

  • Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.

    I've been building a site in Muse successfully until today when I get this error message in the browser, publishing to business catalyst as a test bed:
    Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.
    Clearing the cache has no effect and I have checked the assets and there are no error symbols. This happened after trying a google translate code in the <head> and a HTML snippet on the master template, I've since removed it but that the last action I took that I can think may have had an effect.
    Viewing the source of the page in Safari hash;t helped other than it shows ALOT of html (including some elements i can;t relate to in my site design) and states there are three errors:
    [Warning] Invalid CSS property declaration at: ; (index.html, line 1)
    the site is Kingsdown Holiday Homes - Self Catering Chalet Rental at Kingsdown Park, Kent | Home
    I started this site in Muse CC and then recently upgraded to Muse CC 2014, and I had install issues so deleted the original program (this then forced the download of the new version which was not automatically downloading even though CC notified me that an update was required.
    Any information gratefully received.
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Same problem here but it has nothing to do with a cellular connection.
    Created the site http://www.blackdot.com in Muse 7.4.3 with no issues. Just updated the .muse file today to Muse CC 2014 and reloaded to our web server. Now I am getting the error "Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect." when viewing the site from the latest version of all browsers (Safari, Firefox, Chrome) on a Mac and all browsers on a PC (Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Explorer), also mobile Safari on an iPad.
    My connection is wired broadband, not a mobile or wireless connection. I am not using the Muse "Upload to FTP host…" option and will not be using it. I am simply exporting as HTML and copying the files to my server. I have deleted all files from the web server and recopied the updated site with the same error result. This is the exact same procedure I used to load the initial site with the prior version of Muse.
    It does not seem like there is an existing solution to this problem although many others are experiencing it. It looks like I will need to manually edit each page to remove the error message coding from the html files. Any tips on how to strip out the alert message from the html?
    UPDATE
    For anyone else experiencing this issue, I was able to edit the .html files for my site to remove the code responsible for this alert message. If you wish to edit your .html files you must make the same edit to every .html file in your site export including the top level "index.html" and all .html files inside the "tablet" and "phone" folders if you have them.
    The coding to remove is at the bottom of each .html file:
    (Muse.assets.outOfDate.length||Muse.assets.required.length)&&alert("Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.")
    Make sure you do not remove any semicolons or braces {} when making this edit. Just remove the text shown above. You will obviously need to remake these edits if you export your site as HTML in the future.

  • How to clear items / cache in Apex 4.2

    Can someone explain how clearing cache or session state processes are supposed to work in Apex 4.2?
    I have an application that allows the user to look up records by last name or by social security number
    A look up by SSN is one to one and takes the user to a detail page
    A look up by NAME displays a list of names where the user can select a user and display the same detail page
    The problem is that the application retains the social security number from one look up to the next. So it keeps displaying the same record
    even if you enter or select a different SSN.
    I've tried creating session state processes to either clear specific items or clear the cache on a page, but nothing seems to work.
    Maybe the problem is that I'm not understanding the options for creating these; it says things like  on load before headers, on load after headers, on submit before calculations, after calculations, etc
    The application is read only.  Logically to me, if you are linking from one page to another you need to save the value in the item  but if you are doing a  new search you need to clear it
    So I thought that on the detail page I should clear the items, or clear the cache on the page after submitting
    But can't get this to work

    heres an example
    Page 1 has items P1_SSN and P1_NAME  as well as hidden items P1_TEXT and P1_TEXT2
    The button affiliated with p1_NAME takes the user to page 2 that displaces a list of match names. it has a link which goes to page 3 where P3_SSN matches #SSN#
    The button affiliated with p1_SSN takes the user directly to page 3 where p3_SSN matches #SSN#
    If I log in and search by SSN first, when I get to page 3 I have the correct record
    If I look up by name , I get the list and select a record by SSN I still have the correct record
    then I go back to Page 1 and search by SSN, entering a new SSN. I always get what ever record I previously pulled up when searching by name and selecting from the list
    On Page 1 , I have a process that says on load before regions clear items and I list all the items
    Similarly  on page 3 I have a process after submit and calculations that clears the items
    When creating these processes it asks to list the items, separated by comma. The only place to enter PL/SQL is under conditions, this is not conditional on anything, it should always clear the cache.
    I use this same logic on different pages in the same application - different tables but same flow. It works there. I don't see why it doesn't work here

  • Clear application cache

    Hello all,
    I know how to clear Safari's History, Cookies, and Cache in Settings.
    My question is: *How do you clear cache from applications*.
    Based on this article:
    +http://www.storefrontbacktalk.com/securityfraud/iphone-payment-peril-mobile-mayh em-omen/+
    I know the iPhone stores information typed into applications for up to one year. This could include credit card and other sensitive info. How do you clear the cache of applications?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ben

    You're welcome.
    Even if this were true - the password for an account that is checked/confirmed on a server and not saved with the app is being stored in the app's cache which I don't believe is true, how would someone be able to access the app's cache on your iPhone? Do you use the passcode lock feature?
    If your iPhone were lost or stolen, someone would need to know what they are doing to be able to access an app's cache, and I seriously doubt many would waste their time trying to do. The overwhelming majority of dishonest folks will be more interested in using the iPhone or selling it to someone else for profit.
    The iPhone makes use of what is called "sandboxing" with all 3rd party apps. All data created and stored by a 3rd party app is sandboxed in its own area on the device which no other apps have access to. All data created and stored by a 3rd party app is included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. If you want to clear an app's cache, delete the app from your iPhone followed by syncing your iPhone with iTunes to update your iPhone's backup. Follow this by re-installing the app but you will need to re-enter the account's user name and password if needed and be right back where you started. There is no option to do this from the iPhone that I'm aware of and I think your effort to address this will provide you very little if any gain. Use the passcode lock feature on your iPhone to nothing can be accessed on your iPhone in the event your iPhone is lost or stolen.
