Help File Won't Update

I am having a problem in getting an updated help file to show up in the program execution. The help file is <program_help/index.html>, and shows up correctly in both the Resources and Products Groups in XCode. That is, after modifying only some text in the index.html file the modified index.html correctly appears in the XCode editor. The path to the index.html file is (correctly) unchanged in the Groups & Files list. The info.plist also remains unchanged.
After a clean/rebuild, the correct modified <program_help/index.html> is located in the Contents folder of <build/Release/program>. However, when program is launched, either within XCode or in the Finder, the Help file accessed via the Help menu has not been updated, i.e., the older unmodified version of the index.html file is displayed from within the program.
I am obviously missing something - any suggestions will be appreciated.

I agree that it is probably a cached file somewhere. I have not been able to find it, though. I have trashed the ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui folder and any other files I've found that reference the program in ~/Library - but the wrong help file still keeps turning up.
I've even tried to explicitly modify the com.apple.helpui/TOCCache.plist entry for the program with the pathname to the correct help file, but as soon as I call the help file in the program the TOCCache.plist file entry reverts to the the old version of the help file in an earlier version of the program.
I doubt that any of these exercises should be necessary, though. There must be some setting in XCode that should take care of getting the correct reference for the help file. I've looked and can not find anything at this point.
One step I will eventually take is to remove all possible sources of the old help file and then see what happens.

  • Photo descriptions disappeared after update to iPhoto 11 and the help file won't load, BBOD, Photo descriptions disappeared after update to iPhoto 11 and the help file won't load, BBOD

    Event titles remain, but why did the individual photo titles change into numbers after an upgrade to iPhoto 11?
    Why does clicking the iPhoto Help button pop open a new window and promptly invoke the beach ball of death which remains even with iPhoto closed but stops when the App Store app is closed?

    When you installed iPhoto 11 did you create a new library and import your old library into it? If so that was not the way to upgrade the library.  The correct way is to just open your old library with the new iPhoto application and let the application upgrade the library.
    If efforts to repair the corrupted library fail you may have to start over with a new library as follows:
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1.  Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    Click to view full size
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Origianls (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    The Help file issue might be corrected by running BatChmod on the iPhoto application with the settings shown in this screenshot.

  • Help Files Won't Load In Web Broswer

    We recently moved our web site and I moved over all of our
    help files. Whenever I try to view these files through Internet
    Explorer, the opening page seems to just keep trying to load (like
    an endless loop). I am 90% sure that it has to do with a setting in
    IIS because of the following:
    1. I can view the files just fine if I view them in Windows
    Explorer.
    2. I tried creating a "test" group of Help files and they
    work fine on another web server that I have, but don't work on this
    particular one.
    I am wondering if anyone has any insight on this? I am
    running a Virtual Private Server with Win2003, IIS 6. If you want
    to look at what the files are doing, please go to
    http://www.basic-software.com/80help/80help.html.
    This is a matter of urgency, so your reply, suggestions, are
    greatly appreciated!

    OK - Since no one else is responding on the forum to this, I
    have an update -- I found out that if I remove these lines from the
    opening page it will load my help files, but it doesn't show the
    opening URL like before -- Any clue again as to why this works on
    our other server, but not on this one?
    <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" >

    if (!window.gbWhVer||!window.gbWhUtil||!window.gbWhMsg)

    I just installed PSE 7 on Windows XP Pro and the help files will not open and I can't connect to online resources through the program.  Can anyone help me?

    Hi Rick,
    Open this URL: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/7.0_Win/
    Clicking the help link from PSE7 will ultimatly take you to this link. Just save this help document by clicking the PDF save option on the top left of the browser. You can access everything in the PDF even offline. There is no difference between the PDF file and the online help files.

  • Help file won't come up

    Help file just began to say, "unable to find locale data files please reinstall? How do I do this?

    Thanks for jumping in Tom. The app is the Alpha version of Trillian. You can find it by typing Trillian in your browser and then click on the "currulean" link next to the mac box in case you aren't familiar. I know it works on mac at least for some because there are discussions about use of the app itself.
    I had someone else comment from the trillian end and they suggested checking console for details. There is a log for trillian pointing to not finding a library that is needed. Again since others have used the app, I think it might be my specific equipment.
    I'm anxious to see what you find. Please let me know.

  • Index file won't update on server

    I have changed &amp;amp;amp; uploaded mjy index.html file
    many, many times with no problem. Now I have another update
    &amp;amp;amp; when I upload it with either Dreamweaver or
    GoDaddy's FTP it does not update the file...even though I get no
    error message.
    I even created a new index file using the exact same script
    as what is currently loaded...only changing a couple words...but it
    still will not update. It says the file on the server is dated 2/6
    (today), but it is not the file I just uploaded.
    Edit: The site is at www.webrevamps.com
    I will attach the new code that won't stick on the server. To
    make it simple, all I changtyed from the code that shows on the web
    is I changed the title to &quot;WebRevamps.com &amp; added
    &quot;Hello Me&quot; next to &quot;Hello
    World&quot;
    Any suggestions?

  • .lbi bug?...lbi file won't update pages...lbi link broke

    Greetings,
    I have an lbi file used as a menu in DW CS5 that used to work...then by some cruel chance, the lbi file would no longer update it self into the 320 pages that it is set in.
    If I re paste the lbi file from Assets back into the page code, it works again.
    Here's my process... it asks to update all the 320 pages in the site (which, yes, are set in Manage Sites...)
    Then I 'update', but the log says nothing updated (it does show a few updates here since I did repaste the .lbi link into a few test pages)
    Pages that have the original lbi file pasted in no longer have the link highlighted in the off-yellow color and so do not get updated.
    Newly pasted (and original...when the link was still connected and working) lbi files do have the link highlighted in the off-yellow and therefore do get updated when I save a change to the menu.lbi file.
    <b>BUT</b> I have no idea why the link failed/stopped working!!
    <u><b>2 Questions</b></u>
    1. Why did the link suddenly fail?
    2. Is there a way to re-link the menu.lbi file, or will I have to re-paste the menu.lbi file into all 320 pages?
    Thanks for any help!

    1. Does SSI work w/out a server?
    No. (hence Server Side Includes - they're Include files which are included in the page by the server before delivery to the browser)
    2. Can you point me to a tutorial that would help me understand/use SSI for a menu nav?
    Try
    http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/sprymenu/ssi.php
    http://www.projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm2/ug-examples/includes/index.htm (commercial DW extension but the SSI tutorial applies to anything)
    3. Can I assume that I would still need to alter the 320 pages to show where the SSI instance begins and ends?
    Yes. Once and once only. You replace the .lbi code in the page with the SSI code then forget about it forever
    Also...this still doesn't explain why my lbi link failed and whether there is a non-labor-intensive-fix for it.
    No idea, I'm afraid.
    No longer use Library files myself since I discovered SSIs several years ago.

  • 9.2 MUI .msp file won't update 9.1.3?

    I have 9.1.3 installed, and went to run the AdbeRdrUpd920_mui_cum.msp and it says that the upgrade patch cannot be installed becasue the porgram to be upgraded may be missing or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program.  I used all the .msp files to upgrade to 9.1.1 9.1.2 9.1.3, but do i have to use the AcroRead.msi file because it is a 9.2 instead of a 9.1.x upgrade?
    Did anyone else have this problem?

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Source Control/ Files won't update

    Hi,
    I am using RoboHelp X5 with Visual Source safe 6.0. The
    problem is more to do with the file or folder organization (I
    think).
    Basically we have folders setup in VSS set to our local
    folders each author has on their machines. I joined my company a
    year ago and noticed the mess of folders and files outside topic
    folders (sub-folders) on my local drive. Then I learned its because
    when we update certain project pages then check-in the project, the
    pages/files update to the wrong location, meaning they update to
    the main Project folder rather than the topic sub -folders that
    Visual Source safe is set to. Therefore we are forced to copy these
    updated pages outside the subfolders on our local drive and paste
    to the appropriate sub/topic folders, then Check-in so that VSS
    picks up the updated pages to deploy.
    I noticed that certain projects within RoboHelp have folders
    in the Project manager tab under HTML files and these projects
    usually update to correct location when checked-in, but they also
    have separate deployment paths for each sub folder within Visual
    Source.
    I can't figure out if the problem is with the deployment
    paths or the folder setup in RoboHelp. I tested a project
    deployment by creating a folder within RoboHelp to reflect the ones
    on our local drive then I dragged a topic in this folder, updated
    saved then checked in to realize the update was picked up in VSS
    but when I deployed the page, the links on the this page wouldn't
    work. Keep in mind the deployment settings for this particular
    project are the same for all the sub-folders. Hence I have no idea
    what the problem could be. Please Help. I would appreciate a quick
    solution that doesn't keep our links and projects online from
    working.
    Thanks

  • Video file won't update

    I keep having issues with these darn iPods! Ok well, my problem this time is this: I just finished converting a file from to mp4. I made sure my computer had the codec and everything first, and then when I finished converting it to MP4, I tried to add it to my library, but nothing happened. I tried changing the name of the file from 'Mortal Kombat II Annihilation' to 'Mortal Kombat II', and still when I press 'Open' nothing happens! Is it too late to save the file? Or perhaps is there another format iPods could read other than just MP4? Please help me out, thank you!

    I believe the iPod supports more than just MPEG4.
    Also supported are:
    1. H.264 (mpeg4 variant)
    2. M4V
    3. MOV
    "H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats"

  • HELP itunes won't update ALL tracks

    I imported tracks onto itunes & they were skipping so i re-imported & replaced the existing files. now the tracks in itunes are perfect, except i can not get them to upload onto my ipod as no matter what preferences i select it will only ever upload newly added tracks, not the replaced tracks. DRIVING ME MAD

    Probably (and I emphasize "Probably") because your iPod sees the "replaced" tracks as already existing and, therefore, doesn't update them.

    It sounds like you actually have a 2G iPod Touch, which can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1 and no later.  See here to help you verify what generation your iPod Touch is.
