Help!! My linked text file disappears from the links palette

I've set my preferences so that InDesign creates a link when placing text and spreadsheet files, and when I first place the file it appears in the Links palette just fine.
However, as soon as I make a change in the original text file, it disappears from the Links palette!
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I'm using CS2.
Thanks very much!

Just figured it out - Didn't notice that I wasn't setting the "Photo Credit" paragraph style. Problem solved!

    It is possible that the screen is too high and that the scroll bar and the find bar and add-on bar fall off at the bottom.
    If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.

    I tried to rename a file, it gave me an error message (can't remember the number - 43??) and then the file disappeared from the original folder. When I do a search, the file comes up under the new name, but it does not show a path, and even though preview shows the contents, I can't open the document (Powerpoint) and I can't move the document. I tried "Copy" and paste but it doesn't work. I tried "Share" with Airdrop and iChat, but the file is inaccessible. When i try to rename the file, it says the filename is too long.
    When I try to open it, it says the alias is not good, and asks if I want to fix the alias. I'm afraid to do that and lose all access to this document.
    Right now, it feels like a ghost document - it is on the computer intact, but it is in an undisclosed location and inaccessible.
    Please help!!

    I was able to resolve this by repairing permissions, even though no permissions error was listed specifically for that file.
    I could also have recovered it through Time Machine, but I'm interested in knowing how not to have this happen again!
    I was afraid of rebooting and possibly losing track even of the ghost.
    I did not try EasyFind - I'll keep that in mind next time.
    Thanks for all the comments.

  • Any way to embed a text file and retain the link?

    Hi everyone,
    I am embedding the contents of a text file using "Insert > Choose...". This works wonderfully, but it appears to just insert the contents and gives me no way to update the text if the original text file changes. In Word, I can insert the text file and have it retain the link, then I have the ability to update the field (or all files in the document) with updated wording from my source files.
    In case you're wondering, I'm exploring using Pages for authoring the user guides for my company's software. We include command usage statements in our documentation and we have a workflow that runs each command, capturing it's help output into a text file, then we include this in the user guide document. Obviously, having the ability to update the user guide document with updated usage syntax is a required piece of functionality. I would like to use Pages instead of Word, but I'm not sure it can do this.
    Thanks in advance!
    Brian

    No, Pages can't do it. It doesn't keep a link to the original text document. You have to replace the text when you have made changes.

  • In the past, the downloaded file used to stay in the download window. all i had to do was click on it to open it. now, when the download is complete, the loaded file disappears from the download window. how do i get it to stay, as before?

    i must have changed some parameter somewhere in my attempt to make my computer more secure. i'm not sure which parameteter needs to be reset.

    You can not run executable files from the download dialog, this is a security measure.
    If you want to bypass this security measure you can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/207/ OpenDownload] add-on. This add-on has not been updated for a couple of years, but somebody has made a newer version, also called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10902/ OpenDownload], but this version has not yet been reviewed by Mozilla.

  • Photoshop CC crashes, and my working file disappears from the network

    I was just wondering, has anyone ever had Photoshop CC crash, and then realize the file you were working on disappeared off the network?
    I've had other files where it created a 'recovered' file upon reopening of Photoshop, but the one that crashed it, is gone...
    is there a way to allocate/recover that missing file?

    There is typically no way to get back lost files, short of restoring backups.  I hope your administrator is backing up your server regularly.
    May I suggest you change your working habits to avoid working on files directly on your network server.  Instead, copy the file to your local PC with your OS tools (e.g., Finder) and work on it there, save it there, then when you are done copy it back to the network server.
    Adobe always advises not to save files directly to the network, because of the possibility that things can go wrong and data be lost.

  • Deleted Files disappeared from external drive but space is still occupied ( iMac )

    Hello all...
    I have this problem.
    Whenever I delete items from my external hard drive, using iMac (running mavericks), the files disappear from the drive window but their space will be still occupied. if i format the drive using my mac, everything will disappear & the whole drive capacity would be available for use.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Luk

    Unless you empty the trash while the external is attached, the files will remain in the trash. You will gain back your space after you empty it.

    THank you , Nancy. Appreciate the input.
    So instead of this:
    <a class="brand" href="index.html"><img src="../img/logo-ca.png"alt="Consumers Advocate Review"> </a>
    Would it be something like this?:
    <a class="brand" href="index.html"><img src="http://ConsumersAdvocate/img/logo-ca.png"alt="Consumers Advocate Review"> </a>
    And if I do that, is there a way to cope with that locally so that DW can still display the images?

    There are tons of informations missing here, for instance (but not limited to) the exact forms version you are using (note: 10g is not a version, but 10.1.2.0.2 is). Without Version informations a correct answer is not possible
    You might want to go through the links from the Announcement entitled "<a href=http://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=432>Before posting on this forum please read </a>" which contains links to the documentation and instructions on how to post proper questions for example.

  • Trying to "Send Link..." from the File pulldown with Outlook

    Hi,
    From your description, the issue may be related to the CAS server performance. And we can verify it by obtaining the performance log when the issue appears again.
    To get the performance log, we can use Exchange 2010 performance monitor:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=692
    Then we can compare the values in the log file with thresholds in the RPC Client Access counters:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff367877(v=exchg.141).aspx
    If there is great gap between the values and thresholds, it is the performance issue.
    Hope it can help you.
    Thanks

    This is sometimes caused by Bad Blocks on the Hard Drive.
    If 10.7, hold down Command-R at startup, and choose Disk Utility.
    If 10.6 or earlier, boot to the Installer/Utilities DVD, answer only the "what language" question and wait for the MenuBar to be drawn. Choose Disk Utility from the Utilities Menu.
    Select your Hard drive by Make & Model and check the SMART Status (lower right of the right window). Choose "Repair Disk" . This ONLY examines and repairs the Directory area of the drive, but may improve things a bit. If errors cannot be repaired, you may need a stronger tool, or a new drive.

  • Hi, just updated hubby's iPhone 4 and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! He does have music still stored on his iPod, but can't get it from the library on his iPod back to phone or itunes. technophobe help pls!

    and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! Luckily he does have music still stored on his iPod, but I can't get it from the library on his iPod back to the phone or to itunes.Please help, but technophobe so put it in simple english please!

    Sounds like the music you had on your phone was not the same music on his computer. The iPhone/iPod touch is not designed to be a storage device. When you sync with a computer that doesn't have your music, it deletes your music from your phone.
    Was this music you purchased from iTunes? if so, and you are in the US, tap on itunes app, tap updates, tap purchased and tap on the cloud icon to get each song back. If you're not int he us, get iOS5 update later this week and do the same.
    But you need to move your itunes library to his computer. Create a user account on his macbook pro for you. From your external drive backup, load your itunes library on it. Then sync as usual! (Don't tell me you don't have a backup for your computer!)

  • Yesterday I updated logic pro and my IK Multimedia ARC system has disappeared from the plug in drop down window, how can I get it back, it appears on old files but not new ones

    yesterday I updated logic pro, I have just discovered that my IK Multimedia ARC system has disappeared from the plug in drop down window, can anyone advise how I can get it back. It seems that old logic files where it was previously loaded still have the plug in live, but on a new project file it simply isn't there to select and activate.

    Not sure about your issue. What did you update from and to? Is ARC still in the plugins/components folder?
    I'm an ARC user too. I have it plugged in to Audio Hijack Pro which is set to hijack audio from Logic. This way ARC is after logic and you don't have to remember to bypass the plugin before you bounce.

     Take it somewhere that has better broadband. The best you can do sometimes is invest in new modem that works with your system instead of the rental etc in most cases.
    Do a Safe Boot.
    Make sure your firewall is set properly. Don't use 3rd party. AV software can get in the way.
    Make sure you are getting the service and a clean strong modem signal - slow is one thing but if it drops off and can't maintain a connection you have hardware issues, not software - and upgrade to a new OS doesn't tend to improve, it may even not work with older networking equipment once you do get it.
     I agree and think electronic only goes too far. And when you do get it: burn the package and manually set it aside first before running the intaller! make a flash memory installer, put it on DVDs too.

  • Desktop files disappeared from displaying on the Desktop

    My existing Desktop files disappeared from displaying on the Desktop--the files still exist, and newly added files appear on the Desktop; I did not enter any "hide my files" command. How do I have them display? Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

    Do a backup.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist.  Move the .plists to your desktop.
    Re-launch Finder by restarting the computer and test. If it works okay, delete the plists from the desktop.
    If the same, return the .plists to where you got it  from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
