Finder misses buttons and displays "right click" transparent

Hi!
I did something I shouldn't have done.
I tried to install this cool Black OS X theme, followed the instruction, rebooted, but it didn't work. So then I uninstalled it.
To my suprise Finder went back to it's original theme, but lost all of its buttons! (see picture)
This is so regretable, and I wish I didn't fall for the "cool" theme that did not work. But is there a way to reinstall Mac OS X original skin/theme. I need my old layout back.
Thanks in advance! (:

Ahh! Forget it!
Fixed it with replacing the coreUI.framework file!

Is there not an easier way to find missing songs?

Is there a smarter way to find missing songs and albums besides having to go through each one individually? Some kind of batch process would be nice...
How do you guys efficiently find missing songs or albums?

don't you just love the way Apple answers your questions in this forum?

Repeating problems (1) Many Missing Files; and (2) Downloading From iTunes

I am having multiple issues with the iTunes store currently. I have spoken with an Apple Expert on August 14, 2010 (case number available if needed). Although he was very good at helping me to the best of his ability, he referred me to iTunes Store Customer Service, which I previously was in contact with.
I have 2 types of repeating problems (1) Many Missing Files; and (2) Downloading From iTunes Store.
_Problem One - (1) Downloading From iTunes Store_
I have 1610 missing files from my iTunes folders. I created a list of missing items by following these steps:
+If for any reason you find yourself with random missing tracks, (or are trying to recover from a dying hard drive like me), there is an easy way to isolate those missing tracks.+
+1. Create a standard playlist called "Not Missing".+
+2. Drag your entire library into that playlist. Missing tracks cannot+
+be copied to a playlist.+
+3. Create a smart playlist called where you select the following conditions in the options window for the new smart playlist:+
+*dropdown menu* PLAYLIST+
+*dropdown menu* IS NOT+
+*dropdown menu* NOT MISSING.+
+4. Rename the smart playlist "Missing"+
+5. Right Click the "Missing" playlist+
+6. Click the "Export..." option+
+7. Select the Plain Text option and Desktop location+
My missing playlistable items represent a better part of a decades worth of audiobook files, transfered files from my PC days, etc... i loved my - now missing - Doctor Who and Torchwood purchases from iTunes.
I have already read the Trouble Shooting, checked Time Machine Backup, and been walked through replacing the preferences list. The missing file path from the "get info" options in iTunes points towards a non-existant file.
_Problem Two (2) Downloading From iTunes Store_
I have had problems downloading files from iTunes for months. I first noticed it with the TV Show "Avatar: The Last Airbender". Lately, when I download from the (non-music) part of the store, the majority of files are downloaded and then immediately not found. This has been prompting iTunes to repeat the download. Until I force quit itunes and *potentially cry*.
There have been multiple iTunes store purchases of audio books recently. If I reported the missing file immediately, I can contact iTunes support to repost the file and that usually fixes the issue. But today, I went to go rewatch "Torchwood: Children of Earth" and noticed Problem One.
_Hind Sight_
If provided with a spreadsheet of my iTunes Store purchase history, I can write a vlookup( formula in excel to compare the list against my exported missing list so a shortlist of what is missing from just my iTunes Store purchase history can be created (hint: it's the majority of items from the list, others are years worth of files from my PC days). If we could do that, could iTunes make my missing purchases available?
Then we can focus on purely, trying to figure out why they went missing in the first place - so we can prevent it again & possibly help others from running into the same.
Plea
I strongly suspect the two issues are related to a root cause ... in addition to my user error in file management of backups ... what is going on?

iTunes Support (Eric) emailed me some instructions. I am posting, in hopes that this will help others.
_Suggestions from iTunes Support_

Troubleshooting 2. Direct Assistance
_Results based on Suggestions_
Results on "Searching the harddrive" - did not resolve my concerns
Results from "Direct Assistant" - i emailed the list of the missing files... status is pending
Conclusion
I'll follow up again later, if I have new news.

Import Catalog vs. Find Missing Files

I had my primary image storage hard drive fail. I am switching to my full backup, however I have hundreds of folders containing 118,000+ files and want the best way to access them.
I can have the existing catalog Find Missing Files, and that preserves the History from teh Develop panel, but it seems that I can only find files within a subfolder, which means that I have to do that for every individual subfolder in the sack.
I can also Import Catalog, but my question is: Will that preserve the History from the Develop Panel or will it simply import the files, as edited, but without showing the step-by-step edits previosuly completed?
I imported a couple of individual subfolders (not the Import Catalog option) and the files came through with edits intact, but no History (History began with the new Import).
Any ideas? Finding Missing Files folder by folder is a potential time suck of epic proportion, but I want to preserve my work history.
Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestions. But here's more details...
The Find Missing Folders so far (I will see if I am missing someting) has not worked from the parent directory. I will look again to see if I glossed over an important step.
As for the drive, it is a Drobo S 5-disk array. The disk experienced a bad sector reorganization, which was successful (all partitions readable and writeable). I prepared to swap out the newly-classified "bad" disk and install the new drive. My major blunder was to accept the Drobo firmware update because IMMEDIATELY after doing to upon reboot the Drobo now showed that ALL OF MY DRIVES WERE NOT INSTALLED, not just the one empty bay waiting for the newer, bigger backup drive.
Needless to say, I'm out of the 90-day "we'll help you" period, but they are trying to get a one-time papel dispensation to allow me to receive assistance via e-mail.
So, for now, I ain't doing squat to the Drobo array until they come up with a way to access my data. I would, however, like ot keep working, hence the need for a new catalog.

Uninstalling Touchsmart--will webcam and dvd player still work?

I want to uninstall the touchsmart features on my 610 running Windows 7 Professional. I do not use touchsmart and the touch capability causes problems--for example, my screen can be messed up, I assume by staic electricit, if a piece of paper is moved near it.
My question is this: Will the webcam and dvd player still work after the touchsmart programs are removed.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Hi,
You can disable it using the following methods. Others will stay and work:

Itunes: i want to find a single fix for missing music on itunes rather than using "iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads" on a case by case basis.

recently when i was creating a playlist, i realized that i was missing music from my extensive itunes (12.0.1.26) library. i found the solution "itunes: finding lost media and downloads" and used the general approach to find the music in finder and copy it to itunes. i don't want to do this every time i find i am missing music. is there an automated fix? i want apple to develop a way to automate the fix. can it be that this isn't a problem for many people?
i ask this now because i just looked for music i thought i had but can't find. maybe i am wrong about having the artist, but it has happened on another artist too. i can't trust itunes to tell me whether i have a song or not. i don't want to keep going back to finder, especially when the instructions in "itunes: finding lost media and downloads" doesn't actually reflect my system (os x 10.7.5).
i don't want to try to do a restore. i have never done a restore on my mac (previously a pc user). and, i don't know how far back to take the restore to find the old music. and then music i have added since i lost the old music wouldn't be there.
i understand that there are so many system variables that apple would need to take into consideration with a general fix. but: i am assuming that apple's changes have caused my problem and feel that apple should do something to fix it. perhaps my assumption is incorrect.
thank you for your help.

limnos, i always have backups. the problem is that i don't know how far back in time to take a restore because i don't know how long this has been going on. and, if i take the restore back very far, i will lose what has been added since the music started to disappear.
i don't even know what you mean when you say "you will check there aren't any broken links (use a script from the Dougscripts web site) before you do a backup."
i agree with you to some extent about not automatically installing upgrades. i'm still running lion and was pushed to it from snow leopard. the problem is that i have a hard time envisioning the changes described in an update to judge whether something is valuable or not.
i have questions about your last paragraph. i'm going to repeat it here and then insert my questions as i go. please forgive my all caps for the moment:
"Now for your missing music, is it that there are broken links, or are things missing completely from the library?" I DON'T KNOW ENOUGH TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION. I BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM HAS TO DO WITH BROKEN LINKS. WHEN I COULDN'T FIND THE MUSIC THAT I THOUGHT I HAD LOADED INTO ITUNES YEARS AGO, I FOUND THE CD'S AND IMPORTED THEM TO ITUNES. I GOT A MESSAGE ABOUT SOME OF THE TRACKS BEING DUPLICATES THAT ASKED WHETHER I WANTED TO IGNORE OR IMPORT. I CHOSE IMPORT BECAUSE ITUNES DIDN'T TELL ME WHAT WAS DUPLICATED. IT WAS ONLY AFTER RE-IMPORTING SEVERAL CD'S THAT I REALIZED THAT THERE WERE NOW DUPLICATES OF THE CD'S: THE FILES I HAD JUST LOADED AND THOSE THAT I HAD LOADED SOME TIME AGO. THE ORIGINALS MAGICALLY APPEARED AFTER I RE-IMPORTED THE CD'S. I'M GUESSING THAT THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF A BROKEN LINK I DON'T KNOW HOW TO RECOGNIZE A BROKEN LINK OR HOW TO PREVENT ONE. AFTER I REALIZED THE PROBLEM, I FOUND THE "FINDING LOST MEDIA AND DOWNLOADS" QUIDE. I LOCATED THE MISSING MUSIC IN FINDER AND DRAGGED IT TO ITUNES. DOES THIS COUNT AS A BROKEN LINK?
"If the latter and you use iTunes default settings for managing media, you can drag your media folder to Automatically Add To iTunes. It should add anything in the folder but not in the library list but ignore things that are." CAN YOU REPHRASE THIS LAST PARAGRAPH? I DON'T KNOW WHAT "DEFAULT SETTINGS FOR MANAGING MEDIA" MEANS.
FOR "DRAG MEDIA FOLDER TO AUTOMATICALLY ADD TO ITUNES," I THINK YOU MEAN I CAN DRAG /MUSIC/ITUNES/ITUNES MEDIA/MUSIC IN FINDER TO THE ITUNES ICON IN THE DOCK. AND, THAT THAT ACTION WILL REPLACE ANYTHING MISSING IN ITUNES BUT NOT DUPLICATE THE FILES THAT ARE IN ITUNES. IS THAT RIGHT?
thank you for your time and help, limnos.

Finding missed sequence numbers and rows from a fact table

Finding missed sequence numbers and rows from a fact table
Hi
I am working on an OLAP date cube with the following schema:
As you can see there is a fact transaction with two dimensions called cardNumber and Sequence. Card dimension contains about three million card numbers.
Sequence dimension contains a sequence number from 0 to 255. Fact transaction contains about 400 million transactions of those cards.
Each transaction has a sequence number in 0 to 255 ranges. If sequence number of transactions of a card reaches to 255 the next transaction would get 0 as a sequence number.
For example if a card has 1000 transactions then sequence numbers are as follows;
Transaction 1 to transaction 256 with sequences from 0 to 255
Transaction 257 to transaction 512 with sequences from 0 to 255
Transaction 513 to transaction 768 with sequences from 0 to 255
Transaction 769 to transaction 1000 with sequences from 0 to 231
The problem is that:
Sometimes there are several missed transactions. For example instead of sequence from 0 to 255, sequences are from 0 to 150 and then from 160 to 255. Here 10 transactions have been missed.
How can I find all missed transactions of all cards with a MDX QUERY?
I really appreciate for helps

Thank you Liao
I need to find missed numbers, In this scenario I want the query to tell the missed numbers are: 151,152,153,154,155,156,157,158,159
Relative transactions are also missed, so I think it is impossible to get them by your MDX query
Suppose this:
date
time
sequence
20140701
23:22:00
149
20140701
23:44:00
150
20140702
8:30:00
160
20140702
9:30:00
161
20140702
11:30:00
162
20140702
11:45:00
163
As you can see the sequence number of the last transaction at the 20140701 is 150
We expecting that the first transaction of the next day should be 151 but it is 160. Those 10 transactions are totally missed and we just need to

I upgraded MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) to yosemite. I have no more access to Finder, App Store and some apps. Since I have no access to App Store I cannot download the missing parts. How can I get access to App Store?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
What do you mean by having no access to those apps? Can you start up your Mac and work with it, and only some OS X apps do not work?
Anyway, what you can try is to reinstall OS X. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting up and reinstall OS X. You will not lose any file.

I have a HP610-1150f. not recording sound when using webcam in touchsmart screen. I have looked thru this forum and I don't see anyone else having this problem. (unless I missed it). The recording works in Notes, but not when I open Webcam and try to record from there. video recording works fine. I have had this computer less than a month and I am having a couple of problems with it. Still loving it though.

JMF on my linux cant find my webcam

Hey guys ;-) ,
Last days i am trying to figure out how to make JMF-like applets(lets say mercury instant messager program) detect my webcam on linux with no success up to now.I followed a lot of tips around the web, but it seems like i cant get my JMF installation done/configured correctly in my arch linux installation.Here are my specs and information of interest:
Webcams tried: Logitech QuickCam pro for notebooks / Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision (linux-uvc-svn package installed// webcams correctly work with other non java programs such as kopete and luvcview)
JMF package tried: Arch linux package/ Suns package
1st i followed the configuration instructions at suns homepage here:http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/setup-linux.html ,except that i wrote all these in my /home/username/.bashrc as follows:
Code:
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
export JMFHOME=/home/img/camera/JMF-2.1.1e
export CLASSPATH=$JMFHOME/lib/jmf.jar:.:${CLASSPATH}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$JMFHOME/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
i reloged on my desktop to get the enviroment's variables up to date but again couldnt get any program using JMF to find my camera.
Here is jmfinit output with my webcam pluged in a usb port:

No matter what i tried, my jmfregistry doesnt show any video capture devices, so i guess thats why my programs cant find it at all. Jmfregistry only shows JavaSound audio capture under "Capture Devices" tab. Pressing "detect capture devices" produces same result as jmfinit pasted above.
Any tips/pointers on what i am missing here to solve this puzzle will be greatly apreciated.

Hello,
this is a really old thread, but i'm traped because of the same response from JMF and my webcam.
I'm working on Fedora 11 and i managed to install JMF correctly, I tested the installation with the Diagnostics Applet and it's all ok.
I have Logitech c600 webcam and it works in Cheese webcam booth. I't was working out of the box.
I'm wondering if there is a way to get my camera detected?
Thanks

Missing webcam in tm2-2101sl

I've just both (1 week ago) a tm2-2101sl and let W7 be automatically updated.
A few days ago, during Skype installation, I've noticed that webcam was not automatically detected.
Looking into Device Manager, there is no category such as "video capture device" or similar.
Checked for all the hardware and found an "unknown USB device" which is not "properly working" and therefore automatically disabled. I think that is the "missing" webcam.
I also checked almost everything else in the notebook (fingerprint detector, touchpad, touchscreen, all USB ports, LAN and WLAN, audio) and everything is working good.
I then tried to updated the driver of the "unknown USB device" but it is said to be the already most-updated driver.
I've tried also a full reset of notebook to factory setup and nothing changed.
Do you have any suggestions?
My last chance would be to send it for a in-warranty repair....
Thanks in advance!

Hi:
it probably is, but I don't know where the driver can be.
Normally the webcam software installs the driver on many PC's.
You may be able to find more details about the unknown USB device by clicking on it in the device manager, then click on the details tab.
In the Properties drop down list, select the second item (Hardware ID's).
Copy and paste the top string of characters into a google seach window, and see if anything further comes up about that device's description.

Internal Webcam and Microphone not working after Screen Fix

I own a HP Envy Spectre XT Ultrabook, and last week I tried to use the webcam and the microphone for the first time in a few months.
However I was shocked to find that Skype kept saying that the webcam was not detected. The microphone also could not register any sound.
Device Manager did not show any imaging devices or the webcamera, even after setting it to view non-present devices.
A check using msinfo32 did not review the webcamera either, and there were no problem devices.
Control Panel >> Sound showed that the Internal Microphone using IDT High Definition Audio Codec was enabled and working, however it could not detect any sound. All drivers are checked to be up-to-date.
I suspect this has something to do with the screen repair last month which a HP on-site technician came down to replace my screen, although I cannot be 100% sure. Although the screen is now working, the technician did not do a good job reassembling the screen - the bottom left corner of the screen cover has not be able to attach properly to the screen.
I have gone through my BIOS setup to make sure that there is no webcam disabled.
I have tried rolling-back and reinstalling the drivers for the microphone but it did not work.
I have tried uninstalling CyberLink YouCam (laptop preinstalled webcam software).
Please help, these two components are very important to me as I am going overseas soon. The laptop is still under warranty.

Hey ajun,
Thank you very much for the information!
For troubleshooting your Webcam, I would suggest taking a look at the document Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 7). I would suggest the two options Video does not appear in your webcam software (such as YouCam, Skype, Messenger, ect.), and Webcam is not listed in Device Manager.
For your internal microphone not working either, please take a look at the document Resolving Microphone and Line-in Problems (Windows 7). From this document, I would suggest following the top two symptoms.
Please let me know the outcome of these troubleshooting steps.
Good luck, and have a great day!
I worked on behalf of HP

"Open VI Reference" Option "Prompt user to find missing subVIs"

I am using "Open VI Reference" to dynamically load a VI. For the "option" control of the "Open VI Reference" node, I pass "0x10" or "10" in hexadecimal, which supposedly "prompt user to find missing subVIs." Nevertheless, I don't get a prompt message dialog when I intentionally pass an invalid or missing VI path. Instead I just get an Error Code 7. What does this option "Prompt user..." suppose to do?

Make sure you set the properties on the integer input into the “options” control to the “Open VI Reference” to be a Hexadecimal format (right-click on the “options” control input, select Format and Precision…, then select Hexadecimal). Now, if you re-run your VI and wire in a VI with a missing subVI, the Open VI Reference will appear with a dialog that will prompt you to browse to the missing subVI. This is exactly the same message LabVIEW displays when it attempts to open a VI and cannot find its subVIs.
I’ve attached a simple example program to demonstrate. Enter the path to the “number extractor.vi” as the VI to open. You should see a dialog prompt appear asking for the “Search 1D Array – Complete.vi”.
Hope this helps!
