Document Warning Missing File

I have iWork '09. When I open a saved pages doc many photos that were copied and pasted are now missing. Also in Numbers I tried to use a template that came with numbers and parts of that template where missing too. How do I fix this and can I get my photos back?

It sounds as something in the iWork applications is missing. If you create a new user account and try Pages and Numbers in that account and it still is missing images in templates it is a application problem. If the applications works fine in the new account it is probably a corrupt preference file.
The preference file is named com.apple.iwork.pages.plist or ...numbers.plist . You find them in Users/ your name / Library/Preferences folder. Drag them to the Trash/Bin start Pages and see if it works now
If the applications still have problem in the new account uninstall iWork. You cannot completely delete iWork by moving the iWork '09 folder to the Trash. Instead, use Yvan Koenig's script:
          •          Go to http://www.box.com/s/00qnssoyeq2xvc22ra4k
          •          Choose public_YK > for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items
          •          Click on uninstall iWork '09.zip, decompress it, open it in AppleScript Editor and click the Run button
Restart the computer and install iWork again and do the updates to at least version 9.0.

Document Warnings - Missing File REDUX

I have a rather lengthy file that continues to give a Document Warnings notice that a Missing File Type of Description "tilepaperblue-420.jpg".
I actually have a list of some 180 "tilepaperblue-###.jpg" files listed. I'm using a blank template for the file and never used any file "tilepaperblue-###.jpg". I've searched my hard drive for any such file and get bupkis.
Any thoughts?

Besides being kept in places like the iWork application support folder, theme files can also be located within presentations. If you are saving Keynote files as packages, right click on the file and select "Show package contents". For iWork 5.05 you will see a directory called "theme-files". If you receive the warning about missing theme-files, that is probably where they are missing from.
(If you are not saving Keynote files as packages, you can convert them by changing the file extension from *.key to *.zip, then unzip the file, which will now appear as a directory. If you add the extension *.key to this directory, it will become a package that is readable by Keynote. Look inside the package directory for theme-files if you are using iWork 5.05. Otherwise, the theme image files will be scattered among the other files in the directory.)
The first time I encountered this problem I was using a Keynote file that contained content pulled from another Keynote file that was a converted PowerPoint file. I looked into the theme-file directory of the original converted file, and sure enough the "missing files" were there. I copied them and pasted them into the theme-files directory of the presentation that was complaining. The complaints ceased! I have no idea where the files came from originally.

I bought iWork via download. Message warning missing files

ok so I own a MacBook Air. I got a trial version of iWork 08 on a DVD. Once the trial expired, I decided to buy it via download. It works fine on my iMac however, getting it on MacBook Air was hard. The only way I could get the files was by sharing a screen and basically dragging the iWork folder onto my MacBook Air's hard drive. The applications seem to be working, however, whenever I open the apps it gives me the warning files missing. Ignore and continue or something. I think this is why I am having trouble migrating docs from iWork to Office for Mac 08. Any suggestions?

knarfy,
We keep seeing this problem in this discussion group when someone tries to install iWork on a computer on which it's already installed. Not this matters now, but here's what you should have done: since the trial version is identical to the purchased version (except for the time limit), you should have just used the new serial number and plugged it into the the trial version. That's all you needed to do in order to get a legit, fully functioning copy.
What I would do now is to do a Spotlight search in the words iWork, Pages, Numbers and Keynote, then delete everything I find (making sure to move my personal files out of those folders first). Then I would do a fresh install. Since you're using a MacBook Air, I would download the trial version, then plug in to that the new serial number from the purchased version.
Hope this helps.

Some of the theme producers visit these discussions sometimes. They may have better insight than I on how to solve this problem.

"Missing File" and Publishing errors

Okay...I'm having two problems and they are becoming INCREDIBLY frustrating. The first one occurs when opening iWeb (1.1.2). I receive an error that reads as follows:
"The following errors occurred while trying to open this document:
Type: Missing File
Description: unnamed"
It gives me the option to continue, which I do and all seems to work well.
That is until recently. Beginning this October 19th, for no apparent reason, iWeb decided to give me a new error whenever I try to publish: "Publish Error: An unknown error occurred"...nice, "unknown", what do I do with that??
I am a teacher, and I depend on this website to maintain contact with my students and parents. This is so aggravating. I need to publish my sites!
Can anyone out there help??

Missing file - warning msg ?

When I open my ibooks author file I get a missing file warning.
The warning window show the missing file name but no other information.
How can I find the page where this file is missing and fix the issue?
thanks in advance
Rohit

I found a way to figure this out by accident ... The missing picture file shows up as a "broken giff" similer to web pages. You just have to go thru the entire file and find the broken giff. It would be better if the error msg shows a page number.

IWeb tells me there is a missing file/document (one I supposed am linked to

EVERY time I open up iWeb it bring up a screen saying there is a missing file (a document that I guess I've linked to). The problem is that I can't find the post in my blog where I'm supposedly linking to this file.
I've checked every post in my blog including what is in the archives and I can't find it. I've checked every page (there aren't many) for the website and I can't find any place where I'm linking to this supposed file. Even more frustrating I can't figure out where it thinks I'm expecting this file to be in whatever post is pointing to this file.
This missing file is NOT a program file. It has to be a document that I'm linking to. Any ideas on how to find it?

Some Firefox add-ons like DownloadHelper work in the background and wait to download a video until the video has been completely rendered on your screen, so if you try to close Firefox while such an add-on is working, you will get that message.
If you ever installed an add-on like that and then uninstalled it, you may have residual data in your Firefox profile that is telling Firefox there is still an unfinished download.
To clear all downloads, from the Firefox menu bar, open
Tools -> Clear Recent History -> Time Range
Select Everything for a time range, and only check the box below that for Browsing and Download History.
This will clear your entire history, so if you have any tabs or windows open that you wish to remember, bookmark those windows and tabs in a temporary bookmark folder before proceeding.
Please post back and mark this issue as "Solved" if it solved your issue, and if not please post back with further questions.

Error opening document: missing file

I have a Pages template that has started opening up with the following error box:
The following errors occurred while trying to open this document:
Missing file: businesscircles_logosgrey.pdf
When I hit "continue", the document (template) opens up fine and appears to be missing nothing. I've searched my computer for the missing file and it doesn't exist (and I have no recollection of why I'd insert a pdf into a template anyway...)
Within Pages I've clicked in View>Show Invisibles, thinking that might reveal something. It didn't.
Any ideas? Thanks!
PS I am running Pages 2.0

Hello,
I had this problem a while ago with an old version 1.x file when open it in Pages 2. After some examination, it seems to appear with placeholder objects mainly (like the image you are writing about). But this was the only time I encountered the problem.
Argelius,
try to copy the image from the business letter template with this steps:
1) Click on the Pages app icon with holding the control key down and choose the item "Show the Package Content" of the appearing menu.
2) Navigate to the business letter template "Contents/Resources/<YourUsedLanguage>.lproj/Templates/ISO/Stationery/" (or "Traditional" instead of "ISO" if you are using Legal and no DIN letter sizes).
3) Do "Show the Package Content" on the letter icon and you will see a new window with all the content of the letter.
4) Search for the image and copy it.
5) Show your own letter document (the document should be closed in Pages), with which the error appears, and show the package content.
6) Paste the image into the package folder.
Now the error message should not appear by opening the document. Search your document if the logo image is placed in it. If yes, have a look at the menu "Format/Advanced/" if the image is marked as a placeholder image. Deactivate this and than delete the image. Save the document (perhaps as a duplication) and close it. See if the problem is gone by open the new document again.

pages file document went missing after force quit. cant find it anywhere even after using recovering files softwares. HELP
i was working on a document with pages. while transferring files from USB, the 'pinball' thing popped up for the longest time which lead me to force quit the document. the document had been saved before quitting. however, my macbook starts to reboot, and after rebooting that specific file is missing. Before it quit, it says that the file is locked and asked me to create a duplicate, which i clicked yes to.

HT203477 Missing file warning with an import of Red footage.

I updatd a project and got seveal missing file warnings. Two clips seem to be very much stuck in this mode. I have trashed the files out of the project and off the drive and tried several time to reload them to no avial... Does anyone have any idea how to get past this. Both files show up on the drive with the video in tack when I click on the files so I am a bit stumped as to what to do next.
Chelsea

So arter chewing my arms off forever I got lucky and found the sollution. After trashing the clips out of FCPX and off the drive and going into the finder and trashing the trash. You have to go into the tranzcoded media on the drive and trash those files. I did this with FCPX open and the files opened up with the video. I then had to redo the proxy and HQ media. One would think that when you trash out a file in FCPX that it would remove the corrosponding files to avoid this issue. Argggg I hope this helps someone else in the future....

Red Missing File Warning

Hello to all-
Getting the missing file icon when the original files are in place. Verified it by "reveal in finder" and reveal in browser". Nothing has changed on the drive where the project and events folder are located.
I had some FxFactory effects on the clips, and uninstalled all the FxFactory plugins due to too many crashes. But the underlying media is still on my drive.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello Tom-
Thank you for your response. Now it's even a more bizare situation. The orange bar is above the footage, the render circle reads 100%, and when I select Render All from the Modify menu, nothing happens!
You are correct in that it is chromakeyed footage.
The mystery continues. I'm going to restart everything and see if the render begins.

Crystal report 13.0.2 document.ExportToStream html40 file not found issue

when export to html, it seems like the html file is exported suessfully but when it is reading the file back, it said the file is not found. but by opening up the temp folder, the file is there but with the .html extension instead of the reported missing file with the .htm extension. bug?

hi Don,
here's the code used:
var stream = document.ExportToStream(ExportFormatType.HTML40);
that's where the exception is thrown. with reflector, the code boil down to this:
HTMLFormatOptions htmlFormatOptions = new HTMLFormatOptions();
      htmlFormatOptions.HTMLBaseFolderName = (string) null;
      StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
      stringBuilder.Append("cr_export_");
      stringBuilder.Append(Guid.NewGuid().ToString());
      stringBuilder.Append(".htm");
      string path = Path.Combine(Path.GetTempPath(), ((object) stringBuilder).ToString());
      htmlFormatOptions.HTMLFileName = path;
      htmlFormatOptions.HTMLEnableSeparatedPages = false;
      reqContext.ExportInfo.ExportFormatOptions = (ExportFormatOptions) htmlFormatOptions;
      HTMLExporter htmlExporter = new HTMLExporter(this, reqContext);
      htmlExporter.Export();
      FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(path, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.None);
      try
        MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
        try
          byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
          int count;
          while ((count = fileStream.Read(buffer, 0, 4096)) > 0)
            memoryStream.Write(buffer, 0, count);
          if (memoryStream != null && memoryStream.Length > 0L)
            return (Stream) memoryStream;
        catch
          memoryStream.Close();
      finally
        if (fileStream != null)
          fileStream.Close();
        htmlExporter.RemoveTempFiles();
notice the line
htmlExporter.Export(), think that's where it generate the whatever.html page, but notice the path building logic, it use .htm but not .html.
is it not a bug? I open up the temp folder and see the .html file but not the .htm file.

Windows 7 Compatability with Labview 8.0 and missing files while interfacing the FPGA with LV

I am trying to use an FPGA (PCI-7830R) with Labview 8.0. The computer has Windows 7 OS. I installed LV 8.0 in the proper order with the FPGA Module and labview is able to see the FPGA when I open a .lvproj (the FPGA is in the tree) however there is a warning symbol next to the FPGA selection and when I try to open a .vi file that is used on the other stations in my lab (it works on all the other stations), labview is unable to find a whole bunch of files. There are some pictures.
Missing File (there are a bunch more but this is the fist one).

According to this LabVIEW Compatibility LabVIEW 8.0 is NOT compatible with Windows 7

How to get back missing files - time machine problems

3 weeks ago, I bought a new iMac (let me call it A) and put everything from my old iMac onto it using Migrate Assistant via WLAN. It worked fine, but when I found out 2 days later that my 'new' iMac (A) had just been replaced by the 2013 iMac, I was really annoyed and contacted the store. They agreed to change it and so today, after the hourly time machine backup, I disconnected the external hard disk and deleted what I could off the machine that was going back to Apple. Plugged in the brand new iMac (B) today and when prompted, got it to transfer data from my time machine backup. However, although the programmes are there etc. the 'last backup' it used was the one from 20 September, the day before I first connected it to the (A) iMac. And so a lot of documents are missing. When I go onto time machine, it just has a lot of blanks inbetween 20 September and today, although it had been backing up on that 'new' iMac (A) every hour it had been on, but it seems that none of these have been saved. Now it has done a couple of backups today, so there are some new backups under today, but before that, just blanks until 20 September. Firstly, can I get the missing files back? And secondly, what has gone wrong and what should I do to time machine to make sure it doesn't do this again? Thanks!!!

Hi Guys,
I would really like to know, if anyone has an answer to this because I would like to be able to re-download some of my podcasts that I deleted to clear up some disk space.
Thanks very much,
John
