HT203477 Missing file warning with an import of Red footage.

I updatd a project and got seveal missing file warnings.  Two clips seem to be very much stuck in this mode.  I have trashed the files out of the project and off the drive and tried several time to reload them to no avial...  Does anyone have any idea how to get past this.   Both files show up on the drive with the video in tack when I click on the files so I am a bit stumped as to what to do next.

So arter chewing my arms off forever I got lucky and found the sollution.  After trashing the clips out of FCPX and off the drive and going into the finder and trashing the trash.  You have to go into the tranzcoded media on the drive and trash those files.  I did this with FCPX open and the files opened up with the video.  I then had to redo the proxy and HQ media.  One would think that when you trash out a file in FCPX that it would remove the corrosponding files to avoid this issue.  Argggg  I hope this helps someone else in the future....

  • Missing file - warning msg ?

    When I open my ibooks author file I get a missing file warning.
    The warning window show the missing file name but no other information.
    How can I find the page where this file is missing and fix the issue?
    thanks in advance
    Rohit

    I found a way to figure this out by accident ... The missing picture file shows up as a "broken giff" similer to web pages.  You just have to go thru the entire file and find the broken giff.  It would be better if the error msg shows a page number.

  • Red Missing File Warning

    Hello to all-
    Getting the missing file icon when the original files are in place. Verified it by "reveal in finder" and reveal in browser". Nothing has changed on the drive where the project and events folder are located.
    I had some FxFactory effects on the clips, and uninstalled all the FxFactory plugins due to too many crashes. But the underlying media is still on my drive.
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hello Tom-
    Thank you for your response. Now it's even a more bizare situation. The orange bar is above the footage, the render circle reads 100%, and when I select Render All from the Modify menu, nothing happens!
    You are correct in that it is chromakeyed footage.
    The mystery continues. I'm going to restart everything and see if the render begins.

  • Using a dynamic file path with the import command

    In one of the BI Publisher blog entries it was mentioned that the curly braces tell the parser that it needs to evaluate this value first before executing the import statement. The example provided was using the built-in parameter CURRENT_SERVER_URL, but it also mentioned that this could be done with any parameter.
    I am trying to import a subtemplate using a parameter that will hold the relative path. I am using the following import command in my report template:
    <?import:file:///{$P_SERVERPATH}/Report Path/Subtemplate.rtf?>
    as well as the following declaration statement:
    <?param@begin:P_SERVERPATH?>
    It appears that the P_SERVERPATH parameter is not being evaluated before the import statement. Am I missing anything?
    Any help is greatly appreciated, we are a little over a week from migrating to a new environment and I need to nail down a solution ASAP.
    Thanks,
    John

    I believe that you cannot have a dynamic path in the import statement as it is not allowed by xsl.

  • Remove missing file warning

    I have some photos I want to edit - sequence, reject, sort etc - but not develop. The full catalog is on my desktop at the studio. I'm travelling right now with my laptop and have exported a catalog with those images to work on. Of course, when I open them in loupe view, the warning comes up 'The file named 'x' is offline or missing'. I find this very distracting though. Other than working in dimmed mode by hitting L twice, is there a way to remove the warning dialog?

    Jonathan,
    Unfortunately, this banner was introduced with LR3, in LR2 it was only present in Develop. The only workaround I know of is to use Survey View in Library.

  • PDFMaker missing files issue with PDF Forms from Office 2007

    Hi,
    I have Adobe PDF 8.0 Pro installed  (full installation) and I upgraded office from 2003 to 2007 AND Windows from 2000 to XP Pro.
    I used to be able to create PDF Forms from an Excel document when using Office 2003.
    Now, when I choose to create a new form starting with an electronic document [from an Excel 2003 document (.xls)], I get this error message:
    "PDFMaker files are missing, would you like to repair?" (please image attached)
    I did the repair. Did not worked.
    I made sure the add-in in office was enabled. Did not worked.
    I un-installed Adobe 8.0 Pro and Adobe Reader 9.0 and re-installed only Adobe 8.0 Pro , thinking there was a problem there. Did not work.
    I googled for more answers, did not find anything else.
    I am able to "print as Adobe PDF", I can create normal PDF documents, but not the Forms.
    I used that option all the time for work. Can someone help me please?!!
    Thanks!
    Gwen

    Bill, it worked!!
    I updated to 8.1.6 and now I can use an electronic document to create a form.
    Thank you!
    I have another question: in the past, to enable Acrobat READER users to fill out a form and save it on their computer, all I had to do is "Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader" in the "advanced" menu of Acrobat Pro.
    I did just that but my colleagues who have Adobe Reader 9 cannot fill the form. It appears as a scanned PDF document to them.
    Any idea why?!

  • SUID file warning with Snow Leopard permissions repair

    I get this whenever I repair permissions on SL
    Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Reso urces/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    Does anyone know what it means ?

    I never found the need for these fine forums before -from my '94 Powerbook 500C thru my '04 iMac G4- but now I've upgraded to a tricked out 'new' 2008 MacBook with Snow Leopard I'm running into bugs, left, right and centre. Here's what I've got to share:
    Aside from the now infamous Bluetooth issue, I just ran into the following two thread relevant warnings after running DU in an attempt to find out why my infrared Apple Remote won't work.
    *Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Reso urces/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired.*
    and
    *Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.*
    From googling around it seems that these are nothing new for the Mac Daddy, dating back several years so I'm not holding my breath for Apple to step up to the plate.
    Has anyone run anything like DiskWarrior or Drive Genius instead of Disk Utility to try and resolve this? I'd give it a go myself but since I'm still feeling my way around my new rig I'm a bit leery of being a lab rat myself.
    I'm only three days into playing with all my new toy. What next? Oh well, at least I have company in my misery and we all know how compatible they are. I'm happy to make your acquaintance ladies and gentlemen.

  • Missing files using the same library on two different macs and other minor problems

    Hi everybody,
    I'm working on a long documentary and I'm new to FCPX (coming from Avid NC and Edius)...I have and external HD where I stored all the media I'm working with (about 1/2T - 1000 clips)...The library (about 100gb) is stored on the internal drive of my iMac and into the iCloud.
    Yesterday, I received my new MacBook and today I tried to work on it. I followed this steps: I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with, I put it on the same folder (movies) it was stored on my iMac and I connected my external HD with all the media...Results? All the clips where gone and the red missing file warning was all over the place.
    FIRST QUESTION: How can I work on both computer overcoming this missing files problem? I know I should have put the library on the same external drive but It was a move aiming to
    SUB QUESTION 1:
    I went back to my iMac and everything worked fine except for a warning about one of my events (the exclamation point) as you can see from this pic:
    I tried to relink the file...but no files to be linked popped up in the relink file window....HOW CAN I KNOW what's wrong in that event in order to fix it?
    SUB QUESTION 2:
    I checked the Library info and - as you can see in the pic below - there are 43mb of media in my internal HD...is this maybe the problem preventing me from working on different macs? I tried to consolidate everything to the external HD but still the 43mb thing persist in being on the internal HD. How can I find where exactly it is located? How can I move it to the external HD given that the consolidate option isn't working?
    Thank you in advance for your help
    Nico

    1) Don't know why this is happening. It may have something to do with
    I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with
    I'm not clear what procedure you're using here. Using a cloud for storage might change some file tags. Generally users I think keep the library on the same drive as the media, keeping the library backups on the system. There is no real benefit in keeping the media in a separate location. Often users will keep the library in the same folder as the media. It makes backing up using tools like Carbon Copy Cloner very efficient.
    1a) This can be difficult to find as there sometimes is no obvious indicator. It might be a missing element in a compound clip, a missing or altered layer in a graphics file, a missing font, a missing effect. These will show up inside the item involved, but may not be apparent in the browser. A missing transition for instance will not be seen until you skim over the project or try to export it.
    2) The 43 MB is a small amount of optimized media. This never prevents relinking. The library is always looking for original media, or proxy media if you're in proxy playback. It never looks for optimized media. If it has it, it uses it, if it doesn't, it uses the original media. If you are using original/optimized playback, you must have the original files. The optimized files are not enough.

  • Missing sidecar - remove missing file status

    I have raw files that had metadata written to XMP sidecar files, the XMP are now missing, and I don't want to have LR create new sidecar files. The files show up as missing in the catalog. How can I get rid of the missing status and the little "metadata status warning" icons without having to write new sidecar files? If I can't that's pretty insidious and I would call it a bug.
    Thanks

    Writing to xmp and then deleting the xmp is how I got to this stage. They show up in the Missing Files folder in the library tab of the library module. If I hover over the little question mark icon it says sidecar file is missing. If I click on the question mark it writes the metadata to xmp, even if "auto write changes to xmp" is unchecked in the catalog settings>metadata preferences.
    But there's no way to delist them from missing files without creating a new xmp, as far as I can tell. You're basically stuck with "missing files" warning forever unless you create new xmps.
    It's pretty annoying. I'd call it a bug. Essentially it's probably just a scenario that wasn't considered or accounted for in development. Creating missing file folder on demand - I like that.
    Thanks for your input, let me know if you come up with anything

  • ITunes Missing Files

    Okay, when I open iTunes (11.0.2.26  Windows 7) and try to play songs in the library, I get the "missing files" message, with option to locate.  I choose to locate, and it cannot find the song file.  However, when I go to the library location (only iTunes Library on this machine) I am able to find the song file, and even open it using iTunes.  Even after doing so, iTunes will not allow me to open the song from within the program, nor locate the song file.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem ?  Any help is much appreciated.

  • Missing File Messages / iWeb adding -1 to files names

    I am trying to create a website using iWeb '09 but I am have an issue with missing file messages. I created the site without an issue. Opened it up the following day and immediately received missing file messages for almost all pages on the site. iWeb appends a -1 to valid file names ex: IMG_12345 -> iWeb message = missing file IMG_12345-1. I am also receiving the missing file messages with the template images which are not being used on the website (dragged and dropped my images over template images).
    I tried to delete the pages then recreate them but that didn't work either. I also deleted the com.apple.iWeb.plist file (emptied trash) then restarted, held shift while rebooting, changed template to a different template then changed it back...nothing is working.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    Another thing I noticed; I have two "domain.sites2" files, one in Users >> Folder >> Application Support >> iWeb and the other is in a personal directory. They are both modified today two hours apart. I just opened and closed iWeb and the file in the application support directory shows a modification not the one in the personal directory.
    The first five or so times I opened iWeb I had to acknowledge the iWeb welcome screen before it wouldn't come back. It seems that my iWeb may be corrupted and have to be reinstalled?

  • RED footage with audio won´t import to timeline anymore?!

    Hello,
    I cannon import any RED footage to the timeline anymore. I can import it with media browser, view it in viewer and make a new comp with it but there is no way to get a clip from the viewer to the timeline. It works fine with RED footage that has no audio.
    I am running 8.2 and this worked fine a week ago...
    Any info?
    Thanks

    So it gets more confusing ...
    I cleared all the .xmp files from a folder, and drag and dropped straight from explorer to the timeline, it all imported !
    So i start do this for a few different folders, seems to be working...
    I then say , well hey ill go back to media browser and try to reimport and organise my file structure the way i like.. all of the sudden it reverts back to audio only, even from win explorer, then i grab 4 clips at once ... it imports them ?
    So, i go back to media my project window, grab 3 files, and it now drops them on the timeline.
    I won't play like I'm understanding the logic here, one would think  spanning clips or somthing but it seems much more random
    Though, if in the future anyone has this problem, try draggin more than 1 clip at a time in and see if that gets you going.
    ADOBE : Can you please shed some light on this, although i have figured a strange work around, this means i cannot use the source window like a usual workflow and i must actually import everything to the timeline then cut and scrap the rest.

  • Since Prelude doesn't work with Red footage, how can I add logging info to a file in Premiere Pro

    Since Prelude doesn't work with Red footage, how can I add logging info to a file in Premiere Pro CS6?

    RED footage has a restriction on metadata.  We are looking into what it would take to get full metadata support into our system, but you cannot tag red footage at this time.

  • Need help with compositing DPX red footage and workflow

    Hi Guys...sorry to repost this..I've tried in many other forums, but haven;'t gotten a straight answer yet, I'm hoping anyone on this page can give advice...
    Recently, I was asked by a friend to help on a low budget project by doing some roto and paint work, and some simple composites in After Effects. The question I have is regarding the specific workflow when it comes to dealing with Red Footage in AE. Currently, the project, which is very small, is getting it’s fine cut done by the editor, and their post supervisor asked how I would like the plates to be delivered for comping…I requested 4k 10 bit DPX files set to Red Gamma/ Red Log Film color space, which I understand to be standard for ingesting.
    The question I have is the best workflow setup for this in AE? Because AE has recently upgraded with CC 2014, there are several new plug ins that I am not familiar with regarding importing DPX or Open EXR files, and the precise color space to work in so I can have a “normalized” project to comp in…..basically Log to Lin, and then exporting Lin to Log.
    This is what I have gathered, and again, I’m not sure if this is correct, so please let me know your thoughts on the best way to work with this:
    Basically I was told to work in sRGB color space in AE in order to work with my VFX comps and elements in the “normalized” sRGB linear colorspace, so go “Log to Lin"
    1. Import the red footage as 10 bit DPX sequence into AE (with a RedLog Film color gamma applied)…the project settings should be set at 32 bit depth and the working space set to sRGB
    2. Right Click on the DPX footage and select “Interpret Footage” select “Main” and then go to the “Color Management” Tab
    3. At the “Assign Profile” Box, select “Universal Camera Film Printing Density”. This should “normalize” the footage in the RGB colorspace of the project, and I should be able to see a Rec709 (sRGB) image instead of flat Log.
    For the Rendered Output from AE for the colorist…..
    Best to render out two different formats, one in Log space for the colorist, and one in a 1080 QT linear space for approvals from the Director
    1. In the AE Render queue, set up two output modules…go to “Output Module Settings” and select “Color Management” tab, then select the “Output Profile”.
    2. Set the profile to “Universal Camera Film Printing Density”, and the file format to DPX…or whichever the colorist requests as the file format (png, Tiff, etc)
    3. The second module can be set to sRGB in QT for approvals
    Does this make sense? Is there a better way? Am I on point? Thanks so much, I really want to have this nailed down before I continue.

    Jason talks about merging clips right a the beginning of the video.
