How can I fix incorrect connections caused by duplicate file names?

I have many slides, scanned over the past 10 years, with duplicate file names and filed by date.  I converted my Elements 9 from PC to iMac and many incorrect connections occured.  Is there a way I can correct these connection errors?  This problem involves about 5% of my 25,000 photo files. 

Duplicate file names don't mean duplicate files for the Organizer, there are other criteria like folder location, pixel size, date taken.
I assume you are using the catalog conversion process in the organizer : do you get a message saying some files are already in the catalog?
Did you use the recommended way for the migration from PC to Mac?

Edit,
Also, with PSE11 and PSE12, many users think that people tags and pictures are not imported because they don't use the new categories panels and don't see them immediately.

    It's either in local folders, as it seem you had been doing, or in icloud.  If you go into the mac's Pages and view the icloud files, you can drag on onto another to create a folder.  But you can only have folder one level deep, so you can't organize your files/folders like you can on a mac, using nested folder several levels deep.

    I don't really understand your comment about "sing of tubes in RED which is wired". But if you are referring to the display of iTunes and the USB port that is an indication that you must restore your iPhone by connecting it to your computer via USB and then using iTunes on the computer to restore it.

  • Aperture: How can I batch change one part of a file name

    I have a file name format for my motor sport pictures
    EventNameYear_CarNumber_ImageNumber
    I have just named 600+ images but after publishing the images, I spotted I put the event year as 2014 instead of 2015.
    How can I batch change the year but leave everything else the same? I've been through the batch change options but cannot work it out
    I am on Aperture 3.6, MacBook Pro on Yosemite 10.10.2
    Thanks

    So you renamed the versions in Aperture, the rename was not just done on the export?
    The names could be changed either in Aperture or on the exported files but as was noted it would require a script to do it. Doing the rename on the exported files would be the easiest, Applescript or possibly even Automator or any number of 3rd party apps could handle this rather easily. Name Mangler comes to mind as possibly being able to handle this.

  • How can I add form field value to the file name in save as dialog box

    I do not want the form to be saved automatically, just want the form to auto populate the "file name" only.
    A little background on the forms I want to use:  My company has 70 retail outlets, I'll use one of our pdf forms called an "Incident Report" as an example.  I would like for a store manager to be able to complete the form, then email the form to the main office (I already have javascript to add field values and form name to the email subject line), once the main office receives it, I want for them to be able to file the pdf electronically on our server.  We have mutliple forms that we use so I do not want any of the forms to automatically save anywhere, (at this time anyway) I just want the office personnel to be able to click "save as" (or whatever they will need to click) and the form automatically add certain field values from the pdf they have received, of which will be different each time the form is sent to the office (Date, store #, employee name etc.) in addition to the name of the form in the "File name" of the "Save As" dialog box.  The main office employees will decide into which server file the pdf should be saved.
    I'm using Acrobat 8 professional, the stores and office personnel use Adobe reader.
    One little note:  We currently print and file a lot of paper on a daily bases, as soon as I can get this to work, we are going green.
    Me and a lot of trees in this will really apprecitate any help you can give with this!  :-)

    You might want to take a look at the document "Developing Acrobat Applications Using JavaScript" (js_developer_guide.pdf) which is part of the Adobe Acrobat SDK, which can be downloaded here. Read the "Privileged versus non-privileged context" (p. 45ff.). You will find an example for "Executing privileged methods in a non-privileged context". Should be almost exactly what you are looking for.
    Small Outline: For security reasons ("the user always has to know what's going on") you are not allowed to use the "Doc.saveAs"-method without the user permission (--> in a non-privileged context). In order to reach the goal of a privileged context you can use a trusted function. You do this by creating a JavaScript file (*.js) in either the Application-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Javascripts") or the User-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%AppData%\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\JavaScripts"). Add the following content to the new file:
    myTrustedBrowseForDoc = app.trustedFunction( function ( oArgs ) {
         app.beginPriv();
              var myTrustedRetn = app.browseForDoc( oArgs );
         app.endPriv();
         return myTrustedRetn;
    myTrustedSaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function ( doc, oArgs ) {
         app.beginPriv();
              var myTrustedRetn = doc.saveAs( oArgs );
         app.endPriv();
         return myTrustedRetn;
    The developer guide actually wants you to add this content to the existing "config.js" file. I recommend creating a new file, since its easier to deploy in a network. Either way, every client/user who needs to be able to save documents this way, needs this JavaScript Code in his Application/User-JavaScript-Folder.
    Within the Acrobat Document, which you want to obtain a certain file name, you can now use the trusted functions "myTrustedBrowseForDoc" and "myTrustedSaveAs" to store the file. To call the trusted functions and deliver the file name you can either you use a form field (button) or you add a new menu item. Add the following JavaScript Action to the button/menu item and change "Roller Coaster" to the name of the field which contains the value which you want to become the new file name:
    var fileName = this.getField("Roller Coaster").valueAsString;
    try {
         var oRetn = myTrustedBrowseForDoc({bSave: true, cFilenameInit: fileName + ".pdf"});
         try {
              myTrustedSaveAs(this, { cPath: oRetn.cPath, cFS:oRetn.cFS });
         catch(e) {
              console.println("Save not allowed, perhaps readonly.");
    catch(e) {
    console.println("User cancelled Save As dialog box");
    Good Luck!

  • How can I get rid of "_data" behind xml file name

    Hello everybody,
    I use xfa.host.exportData("",0) to export xml file which I cann't appoint the name of xml. After I click the exporting button, a window jumps and fill the xml file name automatically, the name is "PDF file name_data.xml", in Adobe Reader Chinese version, "_data" will be translated by Chinese word, so it is not convenience to unify the method of getting xml.
    My problem is if I can get rid of the postfix "_data" in xml file name? I doulbt maybe I can set in LiveCycle Designer, but I can't find out at present.
    Thanks in advance!
    Enlly

    Hello radzmar
    Thank you for you soon reply!
    I learned about the function exportData(), and my form is not certified, so I use exportData("",0) to export xml file. After I click the export button, it will jump out a window to ask for selecting the path, where users want to save the xml file, and, in this window, LiveCycle will fill xml file name automatically by "xxxx_data" (xxxx is the pdf form name). I just wonder if I can avoid "_data" ?
    Do you have any idea? Thanks!

  • How can I print a document that has a file name followed by "(secured)"

    I just received my new certificate of insurance for my vehicle by email and I tried to print it as I go to France on Saturday and need a copy. All that printed out was a blank template. I noticed that the file name is "certificate.pdf(SECURED)"
    Is there any way I can print this please.
    Dale

    George~
    I'm having the same issue... Security preferecnes are set to allow printing but all I get is a blank page.  I seem to remember some sort of work around on Mac's that involved saving a copy.  FYI I'm using acrobat 9.5.2
    You said there are a number of possibilities... can you give a couple options for me to try?
    Thanks

  • How can you fix your connection to another device

    Any help?

    Be sure you are both connected to the same WiFi network.
    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • How can I fix this problem with exporting Pages files?

    Hello,
    I'm having problems with exporting Pages files to Word or PDF (I haven't tried the other formats). Whenever I try to export the Page file, I get one message like this: "The document "XXXXXXX" could not be exported as "YYYYYYY". This problem started after the last Pages update, before that it was working fine. I restarted the computer, updated the OS, but the problem hasn't been solved.
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Thank you in advance!
    Best regards,

    Computers are made of parts made by humans and assembled by humans of materials that are not perfect.
    For example, a display cable that was accidentally pinched during assembly would pass quality control testing with flying colors and would not fail until the lid had been opened and closed several times.
    Likewise a display might not fail until powered on and off a few hundred times.

  • How can I fix a corrupted iPhone 4 video file?

    I have a video that i recorded back in October with my iPhone 4, but for some reason now it won't play. It says "The movie could not be opened. The file is not a movie file. I have tried a bunch of different corrupted video repair software programs....i got one to convert a little bit of it (you have to pay over $100 to get the full converted video.) While the video is a nice short little video, it isn't worth $100 to have it ...however, is there another way to fix these? i know it helps to have a video that is a reference video shot around the same time, which i do. if anyone has any suggestions, i would greatly appreciate it.

    The name of the software i used to fix it (the demo only does around 9 seconds worth) is called Video Repair Tool v.1.6. Has anyone found any software similar to this that is cheaper? i believe from what i have read the "moov" file is either corrupted or missing....
