Images with same name in different folders being swapped

I've been out at a printers freelancing and using CS6 for the first time. I've a 64 page document with a large number of images (100+) that have been given various treatments and held in folders named to identify them.
originals: sweden.jpg, germany.jpg, india.jpg…etc
saturated: sweden.jpg, germany.jpg, india.jpg…etc
greyscale: sweden.jpg, germany.jpg, india.jpg…etc
and so on. The document contains differnt combinations of these pictures, all in all I've about 1,000 image links in the document.
I opened up my document this morning and found for some reason the links to the images were broken - no idea why as no folders seem to have been moved but when I relinked to one of them - say a greyscale image - they ALL linked to the wrong set - the "saturated" ones. Looking at the image path in the links panel I see that's what's happened, ALL the link paths to ALL the images say "saturated", never mind the fact they're greyscale in the document.
So is this a known issue? At the moment I can't find any solution but to relink manually over a thousand images, which, lets face it, is a bit of a disaster for me and the job deadline.
I've used indesign for years and never come across anything even CLOSE to this sort of behaviour.

InDesign has a feature that will automatically search for other missing links when you fix a missing link. When you relinked the first of your grayscale images, you may have accidentally relinked to the saturated image. When this happened it searched the directory that the newly re-linked file was in for all the other missing files. Since your image names all matched up to images in that directory, they all got re-linked.
This auto-relink feature can be toggled in the relink dialog:
If you have a backup of your file, you can revert to that version, and try to relink your images from that one. In the future you should make sure that images all have unique identifiers, it is bad practice to have images with identical names.

  • Two methods with same name but different return type?

    Can I have two methods with same name but different return type in Java? I used to do this in C++ (method overloading or function overloading)
    Here is my code:
    import java.io.*;
    public class Test{
    public static void main(String ar[]){
    try{          
    //I give an invalid file name to throw IO error.
    File file = new File("c:/invalid file name becasue of spaces");
    FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(file ,true);
    writer.write("Test");
    writer.close();     
    } catch (IOException IOe){
         System.out.println("Failure");
    //call first method - displays stack trace on screen
         showerr(NPe);
    //call second method - returns stack trace as string
            String msg = showerr(NPe);
            System.out.println(msg);
    } // end of main
    public static void showerr(Exception e){
         StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
         PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(sw);
         e.printStackTrace(pw);
         try{
         pw.close();
         sw.close();
         catch (IOException IOe){
         IOe.printStackTrace();     
         String stackTrace = sw.toString();
         System.out.println("Null Ptr\n" +  stackTrace );
    }//end of first showerr
    public static String showerr(Exception e){
         StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
         PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(sw);
         e.printStackTrace(pw);
         try{
         pw.close();
         sw.close();
         catch (IOException IOe){
         IOe.printStackTrace();     
         return sw.toString();
    }//end of second showerr
    } // end of class
    [\code]

    Overloading is when you have multiple methods that have the same name and the same return type but take different parameters. See example
    public class Overloader {
         public String buildError(Exception e){
              java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date() ;
              java.text.DateFormat format = java.text.DateFormat.getInstance() ;
              StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer() ;
              buffer.append(format.format(now))
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( e.getClass().getName() )
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( e.getMessage() ) ;
              return buffer.toString() ;
         public String buildError(String msg){
              java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date() ;
              java.text.DateFormat format = java.text.DateFormat.getInstance() ;
              StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer() ;
              buffer.append(format.format(now))
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( msg ) ;
              return buffer.toString() ;
         public String buildErrors(int errCount){
              java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date() ;
              java.text.DateFormat format = java.text.DateFormat.getInstance() ;
              StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer() ;
              buffer.append(format.format(now))
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( "There have been " )
                   .append( errCount )
                   .append( " errors encountered.")  ;
              return buffer.toString() ;
    }Make sense ???

  • How to create directories with same name in different schemas

    I have two schemas on the same database.
    I am trying to create directories with same name, but different paths in both the schemas.
    When i created the directories in second schema, the directory paths of the first schema are automatically changed to the second path.

    Hi,

    If you have removed the REPLACE clause of your create statement, then you would see that is not possible.

  • Mounting multiple directories with same name on different severs to a single mount point on another server

    We have a requirement where in we have multiple solaris servers and each solaris server has a directory with the same name.
    The files in these directories will be different.
    These same name directories on multiple severs has to be mounted to a single directory on another sever.
    We are planning to use NFS, but it seems we can not mount multiple directories with same name on different severs to a single mount point using NFS, and we need to create multiple mount points.
    Is there any way we can achieve this so that all the directories can be mounted to a single mount point?

    You can try to mount all these mount points via NFS in one additional server and then export this new tree again via NFS to all your servers.
    No sure if this works. If this works, then you will have in this case just an additional level in the tree.

  • Concatenate tables with same name from different servers - CR2013

    Hello,
    I need some help.  I need data from 2 tables with the same name on different SQL servers thru an ODBC connection. When I try to get the data by adding both to my datasource I get data from one or the other.  I have considered creating a view, but not sure how to handle this.  Thanks.

    Hi,
    Linked Servers are pretty simple and straightforward, just do a search for the procedure.
    I do have an additional comment, though.  Depending on what tables you're gathering, I've found noticeable differences in performance when I use a connector to a DB on Server Instance "A" linked to "B" versus Server Instance B linked to A.  I haven't determined the circumstances affecting one over the other.
    If I'm not happy with speed using a connector A, I try switching to B.  I like to use as much SQL code as possible, but you can't get around the connector still being a factor.

  • Importing files with same name but different extensions

    Hope I will be clear enough.
    Lets say that instead of sending a file from Lightroom to an external editor, I open it directly in Photoshop.
    When I'm done, I save the edited photo using the same name but in a different file format : IMG_1333.cr2 > IMG_1333.psd or IMG_1333.tif, and selecting the same folder location.
    Then, I come back into Lightroom and synchronise the folder.
    Why is the knew version of the picture not showing up beside the original file, despite the different extension ?
    I notice that the different extensions ( .psd or .tif ) are recorded in the sidecar files field in the Metadata panel.
    Of course, everything works fine if the file name is modified ( or just by selecting the "copy" option in Photoshop's "save as" dialog box ). Lightroom synchronise dialog shows the new photo to import.
    So, why is Lightroom not making a difference between files with the same name but different format extensions ?
    Thanks for any hint :-)
    Gilles.

    Gilles-
    I think your problem is likely that you have the option to stack the copy with the original turned on. First, right-click on one of these photos and go to the stacking menu. If Unstack is not grayed out then you have a stack -- select Unstack to reveal all copies.
    To change the automatic stacking of edited copies from Photoshop, when you next choose to edit a file, in the bottom left corner of the dialog is the check box for unstacking. Clear it, and that choice should "stick" until you change it again.
    Hope this helps!

  • Importing files of the same name in *different* folders?

    Yes, yes, we all know about the RAW+JPEG and whatever else argument.
    But why should I be prevented from importing identical files that are stored in different folders? Who cares if they are in the library twice?
    I haven't figured out if it's just a name issue (don't think so) or if the files have to be truly identical.
    I *think*, but am not sure, that you can import separate files of the same name but that are actually different images. Can anyone verify?
    Lee Jay

    Bob,
    It appears that you can import duplicate named files by unchecking the "ignore Duplicates' box--the first time you import files (or a file) from a folder. But, if you go back to that folder to use 'import' to update, then the import takes place immediately bypassing the screen with the "ignore Dulicates' box on it--I presume it assumes that you would not want to change any of the original settings for an import from a given folder.
    The point is you had better leave it unchecked always if you want duplicates ingested intially or later on reimport.

  • Picture Library : upload image with same name overwrite the image in thumbmail or WebVersion view but not the actual image link points to the old image

    Hello,
    I am facing a wired issue with Picture Libraries in SharePoint.
    We created a custom field and added it to UserInfo list, the column based on custom field lets user upload their personal images to a Picture Library with the name <User ID>.<Image Extension> e.g. 1.jpg where UserID is internal Listitem ID of the UserInfo list and set its URL to the field value which we use to display the image on our custom user profile and some other WebParts.
    If the user uploads a different image, it will overwrite the existing one it keeping the same name.
    The field worked perfectly with sites using widows Based authentication, but as we move the field to sites with form based authentication we find that the field is able to upload the image properly first time but on each successive upload, although a new image gets uploaded with the name userid.imagextension and is shown in the allitems.aspx page in the thumbnail view and in the picture preview on the dispform.aspx page, but the link next to the name field and the image shown on clicking the preview points to the old image.
    To put it other way
    https://<Web URL>/Picture%20Library/_w/Upload_jpg.jpg
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/_t/Upload_jpg.jpg
    Would show the updated image
    but the actual URL
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg 
    points to the old image
    what’s even more strange is that even after deleting the image the url still shows the old image at
    https://<Web Url>/Picture%20Library/Upload.jpg 
    I confirmed the same by actually repeating the same exercise on a picture Library in the User Interface
    Uploading an image say upload.jpeg in the picture library using SharePoint interface.
    Then uploading a different jpeg image keeping the same name upload.jpeg again in the picture library.
    In allitems.aspx thumbnail view and on dispform.aspx page preview filed image now show the newly uploaded image but when you click the preview image or click the link in the name field value it takes you back to the old image.
    I have seen this issue on environment where we have enabled form based authentication and the issue is not seen on another server where we have wss with windows based authentication.
    Has anyone noticed such behavior and is there any workaround to that!
    Thanks & Regards

    All,
    I had the same issue. 
    In my case, Blob Cache was enabled for the web application in which the image issue was occuring.
    I cleared blob cache, and after doing a hard refresh of my browser, the correct image was then displayed.
    To clear blob cache, do the following:
    Navigate to:   
    http://yourwebapp:port/yoursite/_layouts/objectcachesettings.aspx
    Select:  "Object Cache Flush"  and  "Force all servers in the farm to flush their object cache" check boxes
    Click the OK button

  • Deploying EJBs with same name in different application jars on JBOSS

    Hi,
    We are attempting to deploy entity beans with the same name in 2 different EJB application jars on jboss 3.2.5. One bean is an extension of the other, so some of the DB columns they refer to are the same (they access different DB tables in different tablespaces). However, the field names corresponding to these DB columns in the beans themselves are different (i.e. DB column serviceid is associated with the field serviceid in one bean and service_id in the other).
    We have altered jboss.xml for one of the EJB applications so that the jndi-name used to access that application's bean is different to the jndi-name used to access the entity bean in the other EJB jar.
    However, when we attempt to deploy both jar files on the same jboss server, one of the applications deploys successfully and when we deploy the other, we get EJB spec violation errors, such as the following:
    14:18:34,631 WARN [verifier] EJB spec violation:
    Bean : CommunityAddress
    Section: 10.6.2
    Warning: The entity bean class must define a get accessor for each CMP field.
    Info : Field: service_id
    I'm presuming that this is because the bean which references the serviceid DB column with a field called serviceid is being mixed up with the other bean, which has a service_id field.
    Can anyone tell me if there is anything else that is required to get entity beans/EJBs in different applications but with the same names (and some overlapping fields, etc) deployed successfully on the same jboss server apart from editing jboss.xml for one of the applications?
    Is this a jbosscmp-jdbc.xml issue?
    Any help much appreciated,
    Maurice

    Hi Srinath
    Thanks for your response. Its not cloning, its like check-in file first, then check-out the file and do some editing and then again upload the same file with different revision number using RIDC. I got the solution now.

  • Using multiple SSIDs with same name but different PSKs

    I have a central WLC 2504 controller that is being used for remote site FlexConnect 1141 APs. They all advertise three different SSIDs. One SSID is a global SSID that is the same at every office. One is a hidden SSID using 802.1x machine auth.
    The one I am trying to get working is the local office guest network. These SSIDs are all the same at each office but should have different PSKs. They are local to the office, therefore would only ever be applied to a specific FlexConnect group.
    I understand why in theory this is generally not a good idea but given these are for remote sites I'd like it to be possible. I always get this message though:
    "WLAN with duplicate SSID and L2 security policy found"
    Is there a way around this? New WLC code that allows it maybe?

    I was able to configure three (more I think possible) WLANs with same SSID name and all are WPA2-AES-PSK on the same WLC and all are enabled at hte same time.
    Note that you can not have any of those broadcasting on same AP group. Each WLAN can be only broadcasted on a separate AP group. For your sites, It will probably need you to define an AP group for each site to broadcast different WLANs on different sites.
    You can do that if all your WLANs have an ID of 17 or higher. (the reason is, WLANs of 1-16 are by default broadcasted on the default AP group. and because those can not be on the same AP group - including the default one - then you can't have them with WLAN IDs 1-16. i.e on same - default - AP group)

  • Deletes all images with same name

    Why is it impossible to simply move images from one folder to the other, rather than having to go through the lengthy and awkward process of exporting them to another folder and deleting the originals. In addition, I just had the unpleasant experience that when there are JPG copies with the same name still in the folder with the original RAW images, the JPG are also deleted.
    Image management is still a headache in LR. WQhy not use the Bridge folder structure. Why not simply pick up an image and put it in another folder?

    I guess the answer is because that is the way
    Adobe designed I/O to the DB--which is the core of LR, and as such is always talked about by them in sacrosanct terms. They did make some small changes from 1.0 to 1.1--but far short of what they should have done IMO.
    There are better ways to do things, but Adobe is very reluctant to make substantial changes to LR Library to give it the I/O functionality of Bridge or other 'browser' type applications. My guess is that it is not going to change significantly with respect to this issue any time soon.
    I simply do those functions that Bridge does better in Bridge--PS in PS, LR in LR, etc. But, I don't buy into the myth that 'one app does it all' ,so I am not in the slightest disappointed, and I use the best tools out there in different apps and combine them into an effective workflow. If you look at LR in that light, you may be less frustrated.

  • Managing dbs with same names on different hosts in GC 10.2.0.3

    I saw this post: Ideas needed - monitoring same DBName in manual standby
    But my issue is we have an environment that keeps the same db names for production, development, uat etc... Dbs are 10.2.0.3 on Solaris 10. GC is 10.2.0.3 on windows.
    e.g. i have a cluster database HRMS, running on two nodes. On another server, i have a standalone instance HRMS and Grid Control was able to detect it. Weird, it looked like it didn't care about the same name here (may be there is a difference between a database instance and a cluster instance). However, if i were to discover another target on another node, it will complain saying there is another instance. I have used the workaround to manually add it as say HRMS_hostname. All is good.
    I'm curious though as to how when you create a standby database using GC, it creates a different unique name. (DB_UNIQUE_NAME). The latter seems to be the solution in having dbs with the same name in GC with different db_unique_name parameter. However, this parameter is not modifiable.
    Comments anyone?
    Thanks.

    Try this and rediscover the database in GC and see what you get.

    You can use the same class name in different packages.
    The Java API does that (java.awt.List, java.util.List).

    and what command are you passing in, with what classpath setting?
