I have files that say they are missing or offline. I have checked all my folders off of lightroom and they can not be found. I have used the ? mark settings to find and still not found. I can see the images on lightroom so they have to be in my system some how. How can I retrieve these images? Is there a re boot for lightroom? Need help ASAP!

You have probably moved the files outside of Lightroom. The images you see in LR are previews that were made before you moved the files.
Do a search for the files/folders using your computers operating system. (Explorer/Finder)
Once you have found them, you can point LR to the right location.

Files that iWork needs are missing

When I open Pages or either of the other 2 apps, I get the error window that says, "Files that iWork needs are missing. To restore the missing files, use the iWork installer to reinstall iWork."
About 2 days after I loaded iWork8, my computer hard drive crashed (would not boot up). I downloaded everything except the System onto an external hard drive, wiped the G5 hard drive, and reinstalled the System. I recopied everything back from the external hard drive, but iWork will not open.
I tried reinstallation, and everything went though the install process, but still it would not open.
Then I did a Spotlight search for anything that said iWork, dumped all of that, did another reinstallation from the disk, and it still gives the same error message.
Now what? I have iWork on my laptop, and I really like it and would really like to have it work on my desk top computer.

Dennis,
No doubt it would have been better had I reinstalled iWork from the CD rather than just drag all my applications from my external drive. But all other 74 primary apps (Office as 1 primary app) that I brought in by dragging work just fine. If iWork is going to be this touchy, then Apple should provide an "Uninstall" program as Windows has to do for this very reason -- you can't ever find all the little files that an application uses.
I did as you suggested: searched for iWork, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. I am a university professor and some of these terms generate a lot of files.
For "pages" I got 20 folders, 2 images, 54 presentations, 2 music, 1 application (the one we want to find), 249 PDF documents, 793 HTML files, 994 documents, and 89 "other". Do I just dump the application, or are there "documents" or any other kind of file I need to dig through?
For "keynote" I got: 4 folders (all dealing with keynote speakers), 1 application (the one we want to find), 17 PDF documents, 8 HTML files, 33 documents, and 68 "other". Do I just dump the application, or are there "documents" or any other kind of file I need to dig through?
For "numbers" I got: 0 folders, 531 presentations, 4 application (1 of which is the 1 we want to find), 3 system preferences (none of which seems to be related to iWork), 544 PDF documents, 874 HTML files, 1915 documents, and 20 "other". Do I just dump the application, or are there "documents" or any other kind of file I need to dig through?
I will wait to hear from you before I dump anything. Thanks.

Some files that iWork needs are missing.

I tried updating iWork '08, but the installer failed during the update of Pages. Since then i have been unable to boot any of the iWork apps. Numbers and Pages both gives the same error message: "Some files that iWork needs are missing", it then suggests that i reinstall iWork '08, but when i do that, the same issues still remain. i have tried reinstalling, uninstalling by deleting the app icon and then installing it again, ive also tried uninstalling using appdelete, and then install it again, but the same issue just remains.
Do you know what i can do?
Thanks in advance.

Guys
I have the same problem as above.
What happened was that all was fine, then trying to install an add-in for Safari, I hapened to delete the System/Library folder when the GUI went slow on me :-(((
Anyway, couldn't fix or reboot, so ended up reloading the OS from the DVD's.
Once that was done, almost everything was OK, except for Parallels and iWork08, both of which had worked previously.
In the case of iWork08 I've tried all the tips here (delete any file associated with iWork 06/08, fix rights) and even going as far as looking what files the install package says it installs.
Yet, the problem remains.
Like some others, the installer thinks I'm UPGRADING rather than installing fresh.
What other tips can you give, where is the root problem and how do I get around it?
Thanks!

Files that iLife needs are missing Files that iWeb needs are missing

Well, I seem to have a problem that was in other threads, but they really didn't resolve the issue - just got lucky.
When opening either any iWork app or iWeb, I get the following message: "Files that Ilife needs are missing".
This occured after an archive install, but I have removed any file/library remotely connected to IWeb and (several times) reinstalled ILife from the DVD.
I tried the install iWork demo workaround - no luck!
iMovie, iDvd, iTunes all work OK.
What are the critical files in this case?
How do I resolve this?

OK, I fixed it
1. Use AppDelete to delete all programs installed by iLife
2. Download iLifeSupport
3. Show Package contents, open "installers" and run each of the installers (5) then run iLifeSupport.dist
4. Reinstall iLife
Did it for me, but it took a while

I continue to get "Files that iWork needs are missing" in Mountain Lion.

It tells me to use the installer to reinstall iWork.
I have downloaded the 9.2 Update manually, and still the same thing.
I have recently moved and my original iWork disk has gone missing. How else can I fix this?

This issue has been doing my head in... until I found this...

The two .plist downloads on this page... I found the second one (installer) missing from my preferences folder... dropped it in there and Bingo!
hope it works for everybody who has this hassle..

Everything on my desktop disappeared. i tried using the finder to locate specific files and they are missing. Help!

i'm using a macbook pro retina, 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7, 8GB. operating OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
everything on my desktop disappeared. i've managed to make my HD reappear on my desktop but my files etc are nowhere to be found. i tried using the finder to locate specific files and they are missing. Help! I foolishly filled up my desktop with piles of screen grabs and folders - no doubt that was the cause... what do i do, aside from punish myself for being so stupid?

Could you have logged into another account?
If you go to System Preferences>Users and Accounts what accounts are listed?
To show users at login go to the Login Options of chanck the box that says show list of users.
If they they are gone and you can't find them then restore them from a backup

I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and all of a sudden they wont open and an error message comes up saying they were improperly downloaded or came in an email attach which is not the case

I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and I have used them several times and all of a sudden they wont open. I received an error message saying they are improperly downloaded or came as an email attachement which is not the case. Please advise

They seem to be word files - they will open if I choose "open with" microsoft word, but if I double click they don't open they are appearing as PDF on my screen. I even opened one and then tried to "save as" making sure I chose .doc and they still appear as PDF
I just created a new document response.doc in word and when I saved to my desktop it appears as a PDF file and I absolutely did not create a PDF or save as PDF it was a simple word
doc.
The message says "Adobe reader could not open response.doc because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example attached in an email and not properly decoded)
The reader version is I believe the most current, I always update when prompted. OS is Windows 8

I get a message that says:boot manager missing..and it will not boot up..what can i do?

2. The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 32bit ).

I have apps that say they are open in the app updates, how do I get them to close and not run in the updates?

I have apps that say they are open in the apps updates, how do I get them to close in the app updates?

This is normal under iOS 7. The App Store app shows all apps you have updated and are displayed in an "updated" list. The apps will drop off of the list in a few weeks or so. If they show as being updated, then they have in fact been updated. They will remain in the "updated" list until they are dropped off after a time.

How to save down from InDesign Creative Cloud version to CS5? Have exported as .idml file but still get messages that plug-ins are missing although CS5 confirms it is fully updated.

How to save down from InDesign Creative Cloud version to CS5? Have exported as .idml file but still get messages that plug-ins are missing although CS5 confirms it is fully updated.

Yes. Thanks. I misled myself based on another post. Successfully did this by selecting "File," "Save a copy ..." then choosing "for CS4 or later (IDML)"
It required some patience and several tries, but I think that was due to hardware (memory) being overloaded by CC Cloud version or something. It was a 50 MB, 500-page file and took 17 minutes to convert/save,
Re-capping: from CCloud to CS5, don't use "Export" (to IDML); use "Save as" or "Save a copy" and select "for CS4 or later (IDML)".
Advice much appreciated.

I have files that may have been created in various versions of Illustrator. We need to be able to open them, but all we have is CS6 suite. I have called and been told that "technicians at adobe" could perform a paid service to find out what the files were

I have files that may have been created in various versions of Illustrator. We need to be able to open them, but all we have is CS6 suite. I have called and been told that "technicians at adobe" could perform a paid service to find out what the files were created in and get them to be useable in InDesign 6, but I'd need an email address that was registered to our software to give the help desk person. After finding the correct email address, different adobe help number people told me to come here to ask as there is no phone support. Can anyone get me to an adobe technician that can provide a price quote for finding out what created these files and for getting them converted? Thanks.

Sorry, I understood you to say you had the whole CS6 suite, which includes Illustrator.
As far as finding out what the files are, sometimes you can look at them in a text editor to figure this out. See below; the, Creator Tool line. Not every software package makes it this easy, though.

Search can't find files that i know are there

I have files that I can see in the finder, yet when I search for them using the search input in a finder window, I don't see any results. It doesn't matter if I restrict the search to a directory above the files, or to just files, they just don't show up.
Is there any way I can get OS X to redo it's index of files?

Try reindexing Spotlight > http://www.ehow.com/how_5341910_reindex-spotlight-find-files.html

AAC/MP4 track saying they are missing

I've just reinstalled Windows and iTunes (latest version), I've also coped over my iTunes library so I can keep everything the same and all my playlists etc
I've done this loads of times before (I normally re-install Windows every 3 months) and not had problems
this time though, all my AAC/MP4 tracks say they are missing in iTunes and I have to manually find each one individually even though they are where they are supposed to be. It's also done the same for a few music videos
All my other music videos and all my MP3's are fine
anyone got any ideas?

I have files that freeze my programs whenever I try to open ANY file. Is there a way to find the exact files causing the crash?

I have files that are freezing my programs (adobe; after effect and photoshop, as well as maxon cinema 4d). Whenever I try to import ANY file from within the program it doen't even let me select the file I need before freezing. I have moved all files off my desktop and into my dropbox, and it now allows me to import files/search for files on the desktop but NOT dropbox, once I go to dropbox it freezes again. I am assuming there are files within dropbox now that are crashing my programs. The problem is I have a lot of files in there and would like to remove the corrupt ones so that I can use my programs without freezing. Is there a way to find the exact files causing the crash?
This has happened a couple of times and each time I have to move all my files off my desktop, so there must be a type of file doing this, I just don't know what files they are.
Mac Book Pro 15" running OSX 10.9
Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel Iris Pro 1024 MB
ANY help would be greatly appreciated! It is making it really hard to get work done. THANKS!

This error sounds to me like you have/had BootCamp Windows installed and then removed, posible ?
If so (and even if not so), try restating your MBA while holding down the alt/option-key until you get to the Boot Selection Screen.
Choose to boot OSX.
Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and set your OSX to be the default.
Hope it helps
