Help please - unable to open missing photos 'browse' dialogue box

Hi All,
new to the forum, but long time LR user.
I have a problem with LR v.3.4.1 I have a few missing photos (quite a few actually) in my catalogue from when I moved hard drives in v1. I jumped from v.1 to v3. But used to be able to find them still.
Now when I click the ? icon the browse dialogue box won't open. Double clicking only switches from thumnail to full size - though there are no index images of these photos.
I've checked the drives, the images still exist. I tried re-iporting the images to see if that would bring them up as duplicates, but the LR finder would not see any images there.
Since switching from v.1 to v.3 I have done quite a few shoots, and I'd be sad (no mortified!) to loose either bit of editing work.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Damian

I should say, this is the case for both my Macbook Pro running v10.5.8
and my new today, iMac running v10.6.7

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Unable to Open a New Browser Window

I have a couple users who are having trouble logging in to Discoverer on new PCs. They are using Internet Explorerer 8. They are able to get to the login screen, but when the hit connect (or Go) they get an error: "Unable to open a new browser window. Ensure that you do not have popup windows disabled for this site."
Obviously the first thing I had them do was turn off the popup blocker all together. But they still get the error (even after they restart their PC). Other than that, is there something I am missing in how they need to configure IE8? I'm personally used to using IE6 at work and don't know much about configuration setting for IE8.
Thanks!

Hi,
Exactly not sure,see if there are any pop-up blockers still exists,if so try turning pop-up on and off and check it.One more thing what java plug in are you using?? May be it perisists due to java also.
Best Wishes,

Unable to open PWA in browser and MSP on application server in project server 2007. ERROR: Sending the Soap message failed or no recognizable response was received.

Hi All,
I am using project server 2007 and WSS 3.0.
I have been facing a strange issue for couple of days. I am unable to open PWA in browser and MS Project Pro on application server.
Everything is correct whether it is URL or MS Project profile account on MSP. This is strange because i can open same PWA/MSP from other computers (Database server / Client PCs) but not locally on server.
When i try to connect to MSP on App server, i get the following errors in event viewer.

One more issue i am facing and i guess that is related to above issue. The Issue is, when i am creating a new project, It's workspace gets created but doesn't get linked to the project and i can't link it manually because it already exists for the project.

Hi Paul ,
Thanks for reply. The project server URL was already added to the Trusted

The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

Can anyone help me create a relink script to simply open up the relink dialogue box?

Can anyone help me create a relink script to simply open up the relink dialogue box?

the "Relink" command uses the same dialog as the "Place" command, with the exception of having the "Replace" option checked...so, use Ctrl+Shift+P to bring up the Place dialog, select your new image then check the "Replace" check box.
if checking "Replace" with the mouse slows you down, after selecting your image, press "tab" key 3 times to switch focus to it, then press space bar to check it, then ok to place.

Why is my photo downloader dialogue box pixelated?

I have noticed recently that when I take images off a CF or SD card and use Bridge. The photo downloader dialogue box is not very high quality. The text is pixelated and the over all graphic isn't very high quality. I seem to only notice in this section of Bridge. I am working on a retina display mac book pro so it just seems weird when I open that dialogue box it is not very high quality. Is there something wrong or is this normal and the way it is supposed to be?

A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).

?unable to open raw photo file after downloading camera raw 7.4 update?

Can anyone help please.
I recently had my lap top wiped and have had to re load CS6. I have also downloaded the camera raw 7.4 update (I use a Nikon D7100 camera) The update downloads without any problems, I go through download, install and then finish, but I still am unable to open my raw photos. I get the following message... 'if you are attempting to open a raw file from a digital camera, make sure you have the latest raw camera update installed'. I have no idea why it is doing this, or how to combat it. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Gail

Hi Benjamin,
You were right. It was the camera's provided software transfer system. I've copied them directly from the (same) card to the desktop and works.
Many many thanks! Cheers

Unable to open CR2 photos in Photoshop CS3.

I am unable to open some very important wedding CR2 files in Photoshop CS3. What specific updates do I need to fix this? The raw photoUns were shot on a Canon 70D. The photos were shot in low lighting so I shot in a large format that I don't typically use. I feel that I have tried several updates available through Adobe but have been unsuccessful.

The DNG converter that I have is 8.7. I will re-download the 8.2 and see if that helps.
No, no, no! Don't do that. Older versions don't even support your camera.
The DNG Converter does not work on files, it won't even see them. It works only on FOLDERS. Do not point it at the files but at the FOLDER(s) that contain said files.

Unable to open edited photos in organizer

I Imported the photos with organizer in RAW format, used the RAW converter and did some editing in Editor, I have Elements 9, I save as photoshop.psd and in organizer I get a picure of a torn paper, unable to open,
what is this It´s probably a simple answer, but I can´t find it,

Does the original photo still exist in the directory it was in when imported into Organizer? If so, use File...Reconnect...All Missing Files to reconnect to it.
If you no longer have the original imported photo in its original directory, use File...Get Photos and Videos...From Files and Folders to re-import photos from the directory.

HT3669 Help please: Unable to connect HP4350 Laser Jet to network

I just purchased the printer today (replaced an exact same printer) but am unable to connect it. The printer is not appearing in the “Nearby Printers” list so I tried to manually add it with the IP address but keep getting message: “Unable to verify the printer on your network. Unable to connect to “......” due to an error. Would you still like to create the printer?” I tried, & said continue but it does not work, printer que says “Printer not connected” I feel like I must be just missing a simple step. I went through & reset the printers, did the disk utility, unplugged everything, shut off & restarted & NO LUCK! Help Please! I have spent all afternoon trying to figure this out & am regretting not submitting my issue on here sooner...
Thank you!

How do you know what the IP address is?

Unable to open file in browser (Microsoft Word Web App, PDFs, etc) after updates

We just updated with the recent updates, and now are unable to open any documents in the browser in IE. We are using version IE 11. This is not an issue in Firefox or Chrome. Does anyone have any fixes to this? This seems like some sort of compatability
issue, but we are running our browser in compatability mode.
Our temporary fix is just to have documents open in the client program, but this really isn't as convenient.

etoile, can you check the ULS logs on the OWA server at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OfficeWebApps\Data\Logs\ULS\, reproduce your error, and see what is captured in the log?

Plz Help! Unable to open Net 8 Easy Config.

Hello,
I am unable to open Net 8 Easy Config. When I try to open the Net 8 Easy Config, the program hangs. My OS is Win 2k Pro. I am running a P4 chip at 1.5 Ghz. I am trying to open Net 8 Easy Config to create a service name to connect Oracle forms 6i, second release with Oracle 9i Database. Any help will be appreciated!

I think the Java Runtime Environment is conflicting ...... you can create the service name by editing the tnsnames.ora file also. To do this go to the ORACLE_HOME of D2K and go to net80 and admin and then open tnsnames.ora and edit this file at the end add this ...
test =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = testserver)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = testSID))
test = your service name
testserver = your server name where Database is running
testSID = is the SID of the Database.
I think this will help you .....
Regards,
Imran hakeem
