Delete missing link from AI file

How do I delete a missing, unwanted linked file from an AI file? The referenced link is completely gone and is not needed. It can't be relinked or removed since it no longer exists. It is has been a phantom for as long as I have been using the AI file and I would like to clear the "Could not find the linked file" pop up every time I load the AI file. Any suggestions?

This is the method I received from Adobe:
> After opening the file, select one of the missing linked files. Click
> the "Linked File" hyperlink in the bar under the menu. A dialog will pop
> up listing linked files, missing ones with a red cross. If you layer's
> panel is open, you can go through the missing linked files by using the
> "Go To Link" button at the bottom of that dialog, select the linked file
> in the layer's panel and use its trashcan.
>
> Rinse and repeat.
Worked for me. BTW the Illustrator file I was working on (and which I did not create) had more than 250 linked files, which I deleted one at a time according to the method. So it's clear why it would be advantageous to have a "select all broken links" / "delete all" option.

  • How can i get all links from html file ?

    I tried some code:
    List<string> metas = new List<string>();
    string text = "";
    string mys = "";
    public List<string> LockedThreads(string filename)
    HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
    HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
    doc.Load(filename, Encoding.UTF8);
    var metaTags = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//meta");
    if (metaTags != null)
    foreach (var tag in metaTags)
    if (tag.Attributes["name"] != null && tag.Attributes["content"] != null)
    text = tag.Attributes["name"].Value;
    mys = tag.Attributes["content"].Value;
    var linksOnPage = from lnks in doc.DocumentNode.Descendants()
    where lnks.Name == "a" &&
    lnks.Attributes["href"] != null &&
    lnks.InnerText.Trim().Length > 0
    select new
    Url = lnks.Attributes["href"].Value,
    Text = lnks.InnerText
    foreach (HtmlNode node in doc.DocumentNode
    .SelectNodes("//a/@href | //img/@src"))
    metas.Add(node.Name);
    In the var linksOnPage i'm getting all the links but some of them not only links for example the first item i see:
    [0] = { Url = "/", Text = "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" }
    Then the second item:
    [1] = { Url = "http://rotter.net/cgi-bin/forum/dcboard.cgi?az=login", Text = "התחבר" }
    Next i want to add another loop or variable that will contain only the links after im src for example:
    <img
    src="http://mysite.com"
    border="0"></a></TD><TD
    ALIGN="right"
    VALIGN="TOP"
    WIDTH="55%">
    So to get only http://mysite.com
    So in the end i will have two Lists:
    First List will contain all links from the html file.
    Second List only links that are in img src

    Ok i'm using regex now and i can get the links i need:
    List<string> metas = new List<string>();
    List<string> metas1 = new List<string>();
    string text = "";
    string mys = "";
    public List<string> LockedThreads(string filename)
    string[] fall = File.ReadAllLines(filename);
    foreach (string hh in fall)
    if (hh.Contains("http://rotter.net") && hh.Contains("locked")||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_general") ||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_anchor") ||
    hh.Contains("icon_anchor") ||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_fire") ||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_sport")||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_camera")||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_movie"))
    Regex linkParser = new Regex(@"\b(?:https?://|www\.)\S+\b", RegexOptions.Compiled | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
    foreach (Match m in linkParser.Matches(hh))
    metas.Add(m.Value);
    So now in the metas i have in this case two links.
    For example the first link is from this block in the file:
    The link i got is : http://rotter.net/forum/Images/hot_icon_anchor.gif
    And this is the right link from this block but now how do i get the text from this block and how i connect how do i know that this text belong to the link ? I need to add this text from this block to a new List. Before all that i counted on my own lines
    and got the text but that's a bad idea.
    I need somehow to get: שרשור תשדירי בחירות מרוכז:
    To get the text between the ToolTip',' and the second ',' but not from all the html file only in places of this two links i extracted.
    <TD ALIGN="RIGHT"
    VALIGN="TOP">
    <body onmousemove="overhere()">
    <a onmouseover="EnterContent('ToolTip','שרשור תשדירי בחירות מרוכז:','<u><span style=color:#000099;>כתב: menahem בתאריך: 03.03.15

    onmouseout="deActivate()"

  • Using Assembler to extract links from a file contained in a package

    Hi everyone,
    I need help creating a DDX file that would extract links from the second file in a package. Can you point me to some examples somewhere? The file has links to other files in the package. It doesn`t work when I remove it from the package, the links seem to be broken, so I can`t extract them. I've tried a lot of ways with PackageFiles nameKeys but I always get the Cover page links for some reason. We need to extract the links to view what they need to look like.  Ultimately, I need to replace URL links with links to files in a package.  In the solution, I will extract URL links, replace them with GOTOE actions in the .xfdf file and reinsert the links in that PDF that's being packaged.  It will point directly to files in the package as oppose to web locations.  I plan to apply an XSLT transformation as a step in the process.
    Thanks,
    Alain Roy

    You mentioned that The file has links to other files in the package. How did those links get there? Were those links originally between PDF files in a relative folder structure? Then you put those PDF files into the PDF package?
    Unfortunately, Acrobat 9 does not support hypertext linking between files in a PDF package.
    You mentioned your lack of success getting the links from the second file in the PDF package. In your PackageFiles result element, you can specify the name of the file you want, but you cannot specify the ordinal number of the file.  Here is a DDX that extracts a file from a package. The <NoPackage> changes the result from a PDF package to a single PDF.
    <DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
    <PDF result="myresult">
    <NoPackage/>
        <PackageFiles  nameKeys="Recap.pdf">
            <PDF source="doc1"/>
        </PackageFiles>
    </PDF>

  • Linking from SWF files to web pages

    Hi
    I'm using the latest Flash CS3.
    Basically, I want to link from the SWF file to a webpage.
    Here's what I've done so far.
    Created the FLA file, imported the quicktime movie into it
    etc etc.
    I've then added a behaviour by clicking on the inserted
    movie, then BEHAVIORS >WEB> GO TO WEB PAGE> and filled in
    all the relevant text for the link.
    Then I have saved the file. Then I have published then OK.
    I have embeded the SWF file in a web page, but when I click
    on the movie, it shows there's a link, but it won't link to the
    webpage.
    What am I doing wrong? I dont understand.
    Can't get my head around this!
    When I go to the FLA file, then publish preview > flash,
    and the movie appears on its own, the link works... but the SWF
    file doesn't.
    Basically what do I need to do to make it work.
    The coding I am using in my web-page is:
    <p align="center"><center>
    <object width="165" height="100">
    <param name="movie" value="
    http://homovision.media7london.com/wordpress/Newcontribute.swf"
    />
    <embed src="
    http://homovision.media7london.com/wordpress/Newcontribute.swf"
    width="165" height="100" />
    </object>
    </p></center>
    The movie plays, the "link hand" appears above it, but when
    it is clicked nothign happens.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Acrobat Pro 7.1 how to delete url link from pdf doc

    I accidently selected the wrong text when I set up a link to a web page. Nothing I do will allow me to delete the linking capability. When I click on the link, it takes me to "no such address" message in browser.
    When I search Arcobat help, it appears that the instructions are for a newer version of the software, because I don't get the same tools that it tells me to use.
    I've used the Advanced Linking tool that supposedly allows to delete all links in document, but it doesn't work. Links still there.
    Anyone know how to do what I need done?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I don't have Acrobat 7.1 handy but you could see if this helps...
    Make sure the Editing toolbar is visible. Select the Link tool in the toolbar. Clicking on the link in the document should select it and let you edit or delete it.

  • DMS EKKO missing link from Object side

    Hello,
    i have created a new Document typ with Object links: IFLOT (functional location), EKKO (Purchase Order) (We have created a new Screen 9001 and implemented it in SAPCV130, SAPCV130 and set all needed customzing settings.) and LFA1 (Vendor).
    My questions:
    1. I could not find a link (or Button) on Purchase Order side in transaction ME22N/ME23N to open the assigned Documents.
    How can I implement this link?
    2. If I create a DIR in CV01N, I like to type the value in Object link EKKO (Purchase Order) manual and the system has to take the value LFA1 (Vendor) automatic from the Puchase Order. 
    How can I solve this request?
    Thanks in advance for your comments.
    Best Regards,
    Melanie

    Hi Melanie,
    regarding your questions I hope that the following information could be useful for you:
    1. I could not find a link (or Button) on Purchase Order side in transaction ME22N/ME23N to open the assigned Documents.
    How can I implement this link?
    Based on your description I would kindly ask you to check in customizing
    under
    Cross-Application Components
    >> Document Management
       >> Control Data
          >> Maintain Key Fields
    if the entry 'EKKO ME33K EBELN' exists. Please make sure that the
    transaction code ME33K is maintained here too.
    To grant that allways the currenct screens and authorizations were
    called please maintain also the value "1" into the "Authorization"
    column. For further informations on this maintainance please see the
    SAP note 1066915. It's important that you not enter the mentioned
    screen number wihtout the leading "1" as this number is added
    automatically by the system (e.g. object MARA 1201 maintain like MARA
    201). You can do this in customizing under:
    Transaction SPRO
    > Cross-Application-Component
        > Document Management
             > Control Data
                 > Define screen for object links
    If you need the dynpro number or object you will find all standard SAP
    objects and their screen number in function module CV130 (Screens) by
    transaction SE80. Please maintain all necessary SAP objects.
    2. If I create a DIR in CV01N, I like to type the value in Object link EKKO (Purchase Order) manual and the system has to take the value LFA1 (Vendor) automatic from the Puchase Order.
    How can I solve this request?
    Here I think that the BADI DOCUMENT_OBJ could be useful for you to control the creation of object links from CV01N or CV02N transaction.
    Best regards,
    Christoph

  • Trying to load a javascript link from text file into a dynamic textfile

    Can anyone help me with this problem? Im trying to load in a
    newsfeed from freshcontent.net into my text field. If i put this
    javascript link on an html page, the page shows correctly, which is
    im supposed to get 3 dynamic links with news content headlines.
    Please view the link to see what i mean:
    http://www.freshcontent.net/directory/real-estate/real_estate.html
    Now, i cannot get this same type of display behavior in my
    text field if i just paste into my text file the javascript link
    thats supposed to bring up the 3 headlines. It is my understanding,
    that flash cannot do this without some sort of specific
    actionscripting, that involves asfusion, and/or externalInterface.
    Im not sure exactly how to go about setting this up to make this
    work. My current code looks like this:
    If anybody could tell me where im going wrong and what i
    should change in order to get the desired result im going for, Id
    very much appreciate it. Thanks

    well sorry there fanmap - but I don't think you're going to
    be able to get this to work. here's why: the link points to a php
    file - which gathers dynamic info from a DB - the return from the
    php is generating a string that is based on the DOM and
    'constructs' a javascript method that in turn writes to the html
    document. although we can embed html into a textField in Flash
    there are a limited number of supported html tags - and JS methods
    will not operate internally. in addition, (i'm not certain someone
    correct this if i'm off) there's no way to 'change' the output of
    the php call, therefore you will not be able to read the return
    because it is designed to use the DOM and write solely to the
    current document. Even if you were to access the JS method from the
    swf file (which one can) it will still only write the content of
    the php return to the html document - and the output is not
    compatible with the textField class.

  • When we delete a pdf from a file, the deleted file remains in the file for a while but we are not able to open preview or open the file. We recently upgraded to XI Pro. Is this common?

    Has anyone else experienced this?

    Hi Internetwerx,
    I'm not sure that I follow. Are you removing  PDF from a Portfolio, and it remains in the Portfolio briefly after deletion?
    What operating system and version are you on? When you say that the file remains for a while, what makes it disappear? Does it disappear when you save the portfolio, or change preview modes?
    I look forward to hearing back from you so that we can get to the bottom of this one!

  • Link from flash file/moving not working on a page

    I will apologize first for what maybe a very elementary
    questions. I was sent an swf file to add to a web page. I got the
    movie to run on some of the pages where I inserted it into a
    template and the template updated those pages. I think had to
    insert it into another page and the movie does not work there. Does
    this have something to do with the script in the script folder? A
    conflict of some sort?
    Also, I need to link the file a URL and putting <a
    href> brackets around it is not working. Does the link to the
    page have to embedded in the swf file?
    Thanks for any help on this.

    http://www.grantwrangler.com/advertise.html
    Movie not even showing up:

    > Also, I need to link the file a URL and putting <a

    > not working. Does the link to the page have to embedded

    wrapping an A HREF tag around a flash .swf object will not
    work.
    the link has to be "in" the swf, back when it was an FLA file
    in flash.
    Or- the .swf has to have actionscripting in it so that it
    will take a url as
    a parameter.
    On the flash not showing--
    Random observations from a quick look.
    There is no \ backslash in a web path or url.
    you can usually "get away with it" on a windows server, but
    it's incorrect
    and something to avoid.

  • Self links from text file

    hi,
    am using dreamweaver cs5.5 ... i have stored lotta hyperlinks in a txt file (more than 50) ... want to add them to my site ... so can i make all those 50 links active or working in an html page automatically ???
    thanx

    Hey Blue -
    Not sure what you mean by "automatically" or "selflinks", but outside of DW you can prepend any missing parts of the HTML link code (like) <a href="  and append the "</a><br> using find & replace.
    When you are happy with the modified text file, you can then open DW, and copy & paste it into code view of your HTML page
    Adjust your F&R criteria to suit your needs.
