DW CC erasing code; strange characters; missing file.

HEllo, an user in the French forums experiences several issues since the last update (I asked him to give the exact version)
DW erases parts of the code; gives error messages about a missing welcome.js file ; adds underlined < character. more info (thanks to the translate button in: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1354156?tstart=0

  • ITunes linking to JPGs in strange folders & missing files

    I was using iTunes on a PC, via a NAS drive where I keep my music. I want to start using iTunes on a MacBook so pointed iTunes on the Mac to the shared music folder on the NAS. I had the usual exclamation marks on some of the tracks, so went in to the folders to locate the files. A lot are now missing from the folders - i.e. half the albums are gone or complete artists are missing.
    The second and most strangest part that I cannot understand is that when I look on some tracks in 'Get Info' and 'Where', some of the files have been moved to obscure locations and are showing as jpgs. When I go into the folder, all there is is JPGs! The music plays fine for these files, however I can't locate the rest of my missing files as they no longer have the correct filenames or even extensions. Example below.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Somehow they got deleted from the PC's hard drive, but iTunes didn't get told about it.
    Just find those podcasts in iTunes and delete them.

  • Strange characters instead of PDF-file

    when I forward to a servlet called Test.java, my browser return a PDF file.
    but when I write the method of the servlet in a bean, called WinkelWagen.java, and I write the rest of the code of the servlet in a jsp file (pdf.jsp, this jsp calls the method in the bean) I only get strange characters returned by my browser and Acrobat Reader doesn't run.

  • Exchange Server 2013 Missing file on ISO install Error Code 1603

    Hi all,   a mystery needs solving any suggestions much appreciated:
    We are trying to install Exchange Server 2013 on Windows 2012 server.
    The ISO File being used is: SW_DVD9_Exchange_Svr_2013w_SP1_MultiLang_Std_Ent_MLF_X19-35118
    All preparation and requisites in place.
    During Stage 2 Copying files, we receive an error code 1603 and installation halts.
    The error states:
    Installing product F:\exchangeserver.msi failed. Fatal error during installation. Error code is 1603. Last error reported by the MSI package is 'Source file not found: F:\Setup\ServerRoles\ClientAccess\Owa\prem\version\resources\themes\base\0\microsoft.o365.controls.timeline.mouse.css.
     Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.'.
    We have verified that the Path in the error is correct and exists BUT the file is not present within the 0 folder.
    We have downloaded the ISO from our Action Pack resources twice and attempted 4 separate installations.
    We have tried both Mailbox/Client Access  and Mailbox only installations.
    The missing file: microsoft.o365.controls.timeline.mouse.css. Hopefully the only file misisng???
    Any ideas anyone, could we source a different ISO or copy of the file or ?????
    Many thanks in advance

    Had the same issue with Exchange 2013 SP 1 Downloaded as an ISO from the Volume License Center, installing on a new Server 2012R2 STD box. I found the equivalent file in another ISO but discovered it was just an empty CSS file. So the easiest way is to not
    bother trying to find the file but: 1) open notepad, 2) set save to "All Files", and 3) save an empty CSS file with that filename then place it in the directory indicated in the path given in the error. (Make sure it saves as
    a CSS and not as a TXT.)
    I reran the install and it completed without issue.

  • Using online ExportPDF to DocX - DocX File Full of Strange Characters

    I have a PDF in English, origninating in China, and when the conversion is complete the DocX file is populated by strange characters (would seem to me to be a fonts issue, but I do not know). Only the pictures in the document are recognizeable in any way against the original PDF.

    Replying to my own post after some debug time on this. The problem arrises when the conversion process is launched directly from the Adobe PDF software in Windows, rather than a conversion launched from the ExportPDF website. I re-ran the conversion from the website and got the desired result. There is some default setting in the Adobe Reader X software (V10.1.1 on Win7 Home Premium 64, SP1) which controls OCR and ConvertTo language and causes the failed convert.

  • PDF file contains strange characters and letters.

    PDF file shows strange characters and letters. Why does this happen? How do I correct this so I can print print the file?

    This is probably due to fonts not be embedded in the pdf or too many different font subsets. If it is the former issue, you need to contact the creator of the pdf and have them embed the fonts. You cannot do it, since if you had the fonts on your system, it would ok. If it is related to font subsets you could try to unembed all fonts in the pdf using the PDF Optimizer, then re-embed the fonts using the Preflight tool.

  • Strange characters in pdf

    Hello,
    i have a strange problem with "strange characters" (such as "à", "ö" etc). I have to edit pdf files produced with Adobe Acrobat by other people. In some cases, when i try to "copy and paste" text from this file into a "note" (within the same file), the strange characters appear scrambled, such as "Ÿ" instead of "ü", or "Ž" instead of "é".
    I noticed the following:
    1) on the screen, the original text looks correct, but after copying and pasting it into the note-tool (within Acrobat), it looks scrambled. If i paste it into another application (TextEdit or Word), it stays scrambled.
    2) this happens not for all files, but only for some of them. note that all files come from the same source...
    3) The same string of text looks and behaves absolutely fine when i open the pdf file with another application such as Preview.
    4) In Acrobat, i can edit the scrambled notes to make out of an "Š" an "é" - but that is a time consuming way of doing things.
    I think it has something to do with Font availability, or Unicode, or so, but a don't find the right thing to do. And i really need a solution, since editing within Acrobat is part of my money-earning work ...
    Who has a useful hint ???
    Thanks in advance,
    thomas

    Guessing here, but possibly the others and you aren't set to the same language? - the font codes for the diacriticals may vary between languages?

  • Strange characters inserted when I create a PDF

    I am using Acrobat 11, Windows 7, PC.  Someone sent me a Word Document file and when I create a PDF from it, there are questions marks inserted in many places.  The original word doc has charts inserted as "pictures".  This is where the strange characters are occurring.  Regular text is fine.  A colleague created a PDF using an earlier version of Acrobat and it worked fine. 

    I have figured out that I was not creating the PDF correctly (was doing it through Windows instead of Adobe).  Now that I am doing it correctly (using the Adobe tab when I'm in the word doc, then clicking Create Adobe PDF), the chart does not have the questions marks anymore but it is NOT as crisp and clean as it should be.  Text is blurred, lines in chart are faded or missing in some spots.  In the word doc the chart is crisp and clear.
    Of note:  The charts that have been inserted into the document using my Windows 7 PC are fine when PDF'd.  The chart that is in question was I believe created on a Mac.  That shouldn't matter in my book but unfortunately sometimes it does.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

  • Issue with strange characters

    Hi All,
    A strange scenario ..
    In the source system A text appears to have a hyphen (-)..
    When my BW QA environment pulls the data in the PSA the same hyphen appears to be '#'
    but my Dev environment pulls the same record, it appears the characters shows correctly as hyphen ..
    What could be the possible reason for this issue? Could you guide me where should I look for these?
    And the next part of the question :-
    When the same record is sent via OHS, the hyphen actually shows as hyphen in the generated file(atleast when I try to view the file via al11).. When the file is sent via FTP, the hyphen actually gets converted to some strange characters(âu20ACu201C )..
    Could someone please guide me ..
    Thanks,
    Debajyoti

    Hi Debajyoti,
    Check the RSKC t-code, if you have the hyphen character, or put "ALL_CAPITAL" to let all character as valid.
    Sometimes, there are errors and/or conversion of the characters that you can see in the error message in the load.
    The message sometimes has an hexadecmal number (I don't know if it is your case) that you can check with the next link.

    There are characters that are allowed in the source system (i.e. R/3) because of system language configured in R/3 and not in BW, or Unicode configured in R/3 and not in BW.
    Also, there are some control characters that sap doestn allow to be loaded (you can see them in the list).
    You can validate each character that comes from PSA with a function module in the mapping (defined as routine) for the particular InfoObject that you want, and if it is the case, you can convert it or replace it

  • Can't get rid of missing file!

    When I load the project, I get the FILE MISSING window. The file is simply ",
    with no name. I can't find it.
    I have 14 sequences to encode in Compressor. Needs to happen overnight. Every time one sequence is done, and it's going to the next, the FCP window shows again with "missing file". I have tried clicking "ignore", but it doesn't seem to help.
    How do I deal with this?
    Thanks

    Can you drag the file out of the trash?
    If so, create a new folder on your desktop and name it junk, and put the strange file in the new folder.
    Now, in a terminal, enter
    cd Desktop
    ls
    and you should see the folder you just created named junk
    now enter the command
    cd junk
    if you now do
    ls
    you will see the strange file.
    enter the following command
    sudo rm *
    and enter password when prompted.
    This should remove the file.
    If not, post back.
    please don't do anything suggested in this post. none of this has any chance of helping and will potentially hurt as the offending file will be copied from the external drive to your desktop and might become undeletable there too.
    nerowolfe, please read the thread. the file in question in Trash on an external drive. it can't be deleted because of strange symbols in its name. the unix rm has been tried already and didn't work because of those characters.

  • Spotlight Indexing, Systemstats, Missing File, All After Mavericks Upgrade

    Dear Mac Support Communities,
    The upgrade to OS X 10.9.4 has crippled my computer.
    My main question is: should I reformat, or should I wait for a patch to come out to solve whatever is wrong with Mavericks? I explain below.
    Spotlight is constantly indexing. The mdworker is all over the place on the Activity Monitor—4% and then it explodes to 85% of CPU usage. Systemstats kicks in randomly (connected to spotlight perhaps?) and eats up 90% of my CPU and 3gigs of RAM. Time Machine takes AGES to backup.
    I have not been able to stop Spotlight's endless indexing. I have moved my hard drive and my Time Machine backup into the 'private' filter in 'Spotlight Preferences.' I have also tried the "sudo mdutil -a -i off" trick to stop indexing altogether. But Spotlight Indexing goes "off" and then automatically turns "on" in Terminal. Spotlight carries on, and the computer performance is choppy.
    I've run disk repair. First, I repaired permissions. Then I verified and attempted to repair the the hard drive. There is a missing file apparently, and I therefore must reformat. This is very first issue I've ever had with the hard drive since I bought the computer. Considering how awful Mavericks has been—I have been reading other Support Communities posts—I'm nervous about something going wrong, or that all these problems will persist after the reformat.
    All of this has occurred three days after my upgrade to to OS X 10.9.4. I have heard of numerous people having problems with Mavericks. All similar problems concerning missing files, haywire spotlight, systemstats devouring any remaining CPU power and memory space, and slow Time Machine back-ups.
    Anyone with the same problems? Care to theorize some solutions?
    I have a late 2008, 15inch MacBook Pro., 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, running OS X 10.9.4 (13E28).
    Cheers! I appreciate the help.

    Older Macs have more troubles under Mavericks. Considering the age of your Mac, it's not uncommon to start have hardware issues like drive failure.
    To repair the drive you must boot from the Recovery Drive.
    Boot into the Recovery Drive by holding down Command R when restarting.
    Run Repair Drive and Repair Permissions using Disk Utility in Recovery.***
    Next Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs following directions here This will serve two purposes. It will reset YOUR permissions. Not the same as Disk Utility reset permissions and it will cause Spotlight to re-index your drive when restarting.
    Restart
    Download and run the combo updater to refresh your OS X files.
    OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1755
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.3 to 10.9.4. If somehow the 10.9.3 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.3 and 10.9.4 it will still be stale after the delta update.
    ***If Disk Utility is unable to repair you will have to copy your data to an external drive first. Reformatting will erase the drive. You should have a backup regardless, if your data is important to you. Just like a seat belt and an air bag protect you in different ways when driving, you need both Time Machine and a clone for full protection. If you don't have an external drive for backup, I can give you some suggestions to get you started.
    Both of these applications can be used to create a clone.

  • Understanding compile errors due to copying code from a doc file and not a txt file

    SITUATION:
    My instructor for my micro-controller class refuses to save sample code to a text file and instead saves it to a word document file instead. When I open up the doc file and copy/paste the code into my IDE "CodeWarrior" it causes errors upon compile time.
    I am having to rewrite all the code into a text editor and then copy/paste it into my IDE.
    MY UNDERSTANDING:
    I was told to always save code as a text file because when you save code as a word document file it will bring in unwanted characters when your copy/pasting the code into your IDE for compiling.
    Their are students in my class using the schools computers running "Windows" that copied and pasted the code into CodeWarrior and it compiled fine. This is not only frustrating but confusing. However, I know their are students in class with "PC's" running windows that had the same trouble I did so I know it's not a Mac issue. 
    Also I am running "Parallels" because my IDE for this micro-controller "Code Warrior" is not avaiable for my OS. I realize there are several IDE's out there that require "Windows OS" in general but I know this situation is not a Mac issue or Parallels issue or even a Windows issue. It's purly an issue of formatting that is done between the file being copied and the target program or so I'm understanding.
    Can someone exlain to me in better words or perhaps provide a resource, documentation or article that will enlighten me on this issue. I would like to better state my case next time. I'm tired of being told this is a MAC issue and that Windows is just plain better.

    The problem is (as you suggest) almost certainly a gremlin issue - characters that for one reason or another Code Warrior cannot interpret correctly. Why it happens to you and not others is a different matter. That could mean that the pofessor uses fonts that are not on your machine, or that he is using a different version of word, or it could be in how you access the data. For instance, if the prof posts this word doc on the web you may get different results if you download the file and open it in Word as opposed to opening it directly from a web browser.
    The sure-fire solution is to download TextWrangler and copy the code in there first. TW has a number of tools for finding and removing unpleasant characters. it adds a step, but... you could also try resaving the doc file as a plain text file from within word.

  • Error code 6 at open file

    Hi,
    I am facing the error code 6 issue while trying to write to a text file. I have gone through all the posts which describes this issue and some possible solutions. I am still facing this issue. Here are some details:
    1. The code writes data to a .txt file , which is always unique . Each time the application executes a new .txt file gets created as per the serial number of the UUT.
    2. The error 6 is not very frequent , it appears once or twice duing its execution period over a month.
    3. I have FGV which stores all the data and then writes it to the text file
    4. I have also ensured that the code doesn't writes a huge amount of data at a time, so i am clearing the FGV after acquiring / writing the latest test data.
    I am attaching the vi snippet for refrence
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi ariv,
    As the vi path is wired through the for loop the function write characters to file.vi will get a blank path and will prompt for a file location .
    That's what I wanted to point out...
    The function where the error occurs is write characters to file .vi which is outside the for loop.
    Which parameters/data are passed to that function when an error occurs? Did you check that?
    Can you replicate that error using the same parameters/data in a fresh VI?
    Best regards,
    GerdW
