Empty frames?

Hello, I try to order my photoalbum but keep getting this message: ' your album contains one or more pages with one or more frames without photo. Please change the lay-out of the pages or add photos to the frames before you can order the photobook'. I checked every page, but there are no empty frames. Sometimes I found some 'hidden' photos which I deleted. Eventually I even tried to make the whole photobook again. There are really no empty frames, but I still cannot order the photobook and keep getting the sames message. Who can point me in the right direction?

Look for a page like those in this screenshot, i.e. a page that is using a photo for the background.  It can also have frames on the page.

  • Delete Empty Frames in Indesign through AppleScript

    Hi Everyone,
    We have some users who mistakenly add empty frames in the indesign document. (these are generally very small for example {4.9786 in, 3.9402 in} etc)
    Can we identify such frames through an apple script.
    Usually the frames can be made as a text frame, graphics or unassigned. I am able to delete the empty text frames by using below code:
    tell application "InDesign CS4"
    tell page 1 of document 1
    delete every text frame whose contents is ""
    end tell
    end tell
    However, not sure how to delete empty graphics or unassigned frames.
    Appreciate your help and suggestions!
    Thanks,
    Abhi

    You could check the rectangle for graphic 1 and check the rectangle for its content type. Something like:
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
              tell document 1
                        tell page 1
                                  tell rectangle 1
      display dialog (content type as text) --> "unassigned" or "graphic type"
                                            if exists graphic 1 then
                                                      display dialog ("There is a graphic in this rectangle.")
                                            else
                                                      display dialog ("There is no graphic in this rectangle.")
                                            end if
                                  end tell
                        end tell
              end tell
    end tell

  • Empty frame showing in slideshow from Iphoto

    I created a album and when i click slide show, the first picture is an empty frame with an exclamation mark in the middle of it, and I can't delete it to begin the slide show... help

    The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder in the Finder.
    Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
    If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

  • UseDefaultTile give-me a empty frame on Start Menu

    Hello Everybody,
    In a domain, I'm trying to put company logo as user picture.
    I created a 128 x 128 bmp and saved it at "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\user.bmp".
    To avoid users to change the picture I created the value on registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
    "UseDefaultTile"=dword:00000001
    After restart I'm getting an empty frame on start menu (I know the logon screen will have an empty frame, but I'm having empty frame on start menu and on lock screen).
    If I change UseDefaultTile to "0" the picture is loaded normally on start menu and on lock screen, but user can change it.
    Someone already has this problem?

    Hello Alex,
    this procedure is exactly I made.
    But the picture located at %PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\user.bmp is not loaded on
    start menu and on lock screen.
    The system shows an empty frame.
    I'm starting to think this is a bug of Windows VISTA.
    This
    site tells:
    "Also note that if you enable the above Policy, you’ll see an empty frame at the top of the Windows Vista Start menu where the user account picture normally displays. And the Change your picture option
    in the User Accounts applet will be removed."
    Plus, I found this answer on Technet
    "Regarding the policy “Apply the default user logon picture to all users” this has been accepted as a bug and the Dev team are working on a fix for the same. The occurs because of the following behavior,
    when a user changes his default picture it writes the bitmap to a .dat file in the user account pictures directory under the name {domain}+{username}.dat. When explorer starts it checks whether this file exists for the logged on user and, if it does, copies
    the bitmap part of the file into memory. If it doesn’t find it or the policy “Apply the default user logon picture to all users” is applied, it will use the user.bmp or guest.bmp (depending on the user) that are also in the same directory. Its where these
    files are copied into memory that the problem occurs. We do a check on whether the policy is applied and if it isn’t we’ll copy the bitmap into memory. If it is applied we don’t copy anything into memory and this is why we get a empty frame."
    Take a look:

  • Working alternating with iPhoto and FCE tgrying to import pictures from iPhoto into FCE suddenly all my 22300 pictures disappeared leaving empty frames. Does somebody know where the pictures could have gone and how can I get them back into iPhoto? Lothar

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Indesign: remove all inline empty frames script?

    Hi,
    I need to delete all inline empty frames within a document. Those inline empty frames appear after a data merge is done.
    Please help!

    Are there any other inline frames?
    The code for an inline frame is
    Find
    ^a
    or
    GREP
    ~a
    If you search for these and replace with nothing, then all inline frames will be removed
    But if you have other inline frames I think you may need a script for that.

  • No pictures - just empty frames ???

    Just got our imac back after getting superdrive replaced (yet again !!!) - opened iphoto, and ALL of our pictures are showing up as empty frames. Still with info such as size and name etc, but just an empty frame. Editing and resizing doesnt help. Any help please?

    Have checked as you suggested and this is what is in the pictures/iphoto library :
    2006
    AlbumData.xml
    Dir.data
    iPhoto.db
    iPhoto.ipspot
    iPhotoLock.data
    iPod Photo Cache
    Library.iPhoto
    Thumb32.data
    Thumb64.data
    ThumbJPG.data
    The 2006 folder has just 1 picture in it - the one i experimented with (it shows up in iphoto no problem). So it looks like they didnt back up any info (i dont know if they were asked to or not). Iphoto photo library still says we have 5000+ pictures for example
    /Users/sharronandian/Pictures/iPhoto Library/2006/01/26/IMG_0125.JPG
    so the path is still there but the actual file is not - correct?
    Ok - some more info i can provide. My wife backed up our photo library before the mac went away (phew - god luv 'er) and the photo library is on an external hard drive - so i guess my next question is do i reinstall the library on to iphoto? and if so, how?
    Thanks

  • Out of the blue some of my event folders now fail to show the thumbnails, just empty frames? whats up with that?

    for some reason, some of my event folders are blank on the events page and the event folders no longer show the thumbnails, just hash-mark empty frames. This is just a few events all of a sudden out of many events. Any idea whats going on and how to fix it? Thanks

    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to rebuild the thumbnails. It can take 3 or 4 goes for this to work

    You do have one or more empty photo frames. Most often it will be a full page photo page missing behind a placed full page photo. To find it you need to go through you'd book and look behind each full page photo

  • ESS - Transaction PR05" Returns empty frames and a repeated menu

    We were in 46C and using ITS for ESS implementation . As ECC 5.0 does not support stand alone ITS and due time constraints , we decide to replicate PZLE . We  upgrade to to ECC 5.0 in March'07 . Employees submitted expenses using PR05 screen . Back end we use SAP Travel Manager  - Transaction code - PR05 . We knew the existing solution is for short time and was not recommended by SAP.
    Things were working fine for some time, however recently HRSPs 19-22. Within our ESS system we have implemented transaction PR05 expense reporting. On selecting a saved trip (expense requisition) and clicking "change", two empty frames and a repeated menu as shown in the attachment. R/3 GUI shows the transaction OK.

    Better try to post this in HR or Portal forum...

  • Page Breaks and empty frames

    I have several repeating frames, and a Page Break After on each one. This works fine, but if a frame is null/empty, it still causes a page break.
    Is there a way to prevent the page break if the repeating frame has no data?
    I have Vertical = Variable on each frame.
    thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Try using format mask.
    e.g
    if :myfield is null then
    return false;
    else
    return true;
    end if;
    *** :myfield is the data field in that frame.
    Hope it 'll work for you.

  • CS3 JS flag which page has empty frame

    I am trying to put together a script that will detect pages that have 2 types of elements.
    1. blank graphic frames
    2. graphic frames with images larger than the frame holding it.
    I've created a simple 5 page doc and placed images on page 1 and 3. So the frist step is can I flag that page 1 and 3 have image on them.
    This is what I have so far
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var myPages = myDoc.pages;
    var myRecs = myDoc.rectangles;
    for (var j = myPages.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
    if(myPages[j].rectangles.length >= 1){
    $.writeln("page "+j+" has a frame.");
    And it returns the following in the console which is correct.
    page 2 has a frame.
    page 0 has a frame.
    Is there a way to check if the frame has an image and if it image fits the frame or not?

    I usually switch to spread coordinates to avoid those kinds of issues (although others swear by page coordinates). I use these two functions:
        function saveMeasures(doc, units) {
          var uPrefs = doc.viewPreferences;
          var uMeasures = {
            horiz:uPrefs.horizontalMeasurementUnits,
            vert:uPrefs.verticalMeasurementUnits,
            rule:uPrefs.rulerOrigin,
            zp:doc.zeroPoint
          doc.viewPreferences.properties = {
            horizontalMeasurementUnits:units,
            verticalMeasurementUnits:units,
            rulerOrigin:RulerOrigin.spreadOrigin,
          doc.zeroPoint = [0,0];
          return uMeasures;
        function restoreMeasures(doc, measures) {
          doc.viewPreferences.properties = {
            horizontalMeasurementUnits:measures.horiz,
            verticalMeasurementUnits:measures.vert,
            rulerOrigin:measures.rule
          doc.zeroPoint = measures.zp;
    I call these like this--notice the code is inside a function; that makes it possible to use return to exit the script which in turn makes it possible to call the restore function as I exit, using the return in two different places:
      function splitElements(aDoc) {
        var curPage = app.activeWindow.activePage;
        var prevPage = aDoc.pages[curPage.documentOffset - 1];
        if (prevPage === aDoc.pages[-1]) {
          alert("Don't run this script on the first page of a document.");
          return;
        var uMeasures = saveMeasures(aDoc, MeasurementUnits.points);
        var oSized = getOsetElement(prevPage);
        if (oSized === null) return restoreMeasures(aDoc, uMeasures); // nothing to do
        splitElement(oSized, prevPage, curPage, aDoc);
        return restoreMeasures(aDoc, uMeasures);
    This script needed to convert the measurement units to points because it needs to do calculations involving leading and stroke weights, both of which are provided in points.

  • I have just purchased a Nikon D7000 and iPhoto downloads jpgs but does not show them. It shows an empty frame. If you double click the frame it will show the image. I have tried importing images from the Nikon provided software and the same thing happens.

    I just purchased a Nikon D7000. However, iPhoto does not display JPEG images. I seems to download ok, but displays only an empty box. Double clicking on the box opens the image in a single display window. It does the same thing when importing from Nikon's supplied software. Forget about handling RAW files. Now, I'm having difficulty importing JPGs from Photoshop files for slide shows or use in iMovie.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
