Is it possible to show/hide a layer in all the files in a book?

Hi,
I have 5 catalogs organized in a book, every is at 10 languages, every language is at separate layer. Every book has between 30 and 80 Indesign documents.
I need to edit and print 4 of those languages and switching manually viability of the layers don't look like a good idea to me because of the possible mistake.
Is there a way switching layers/languages to happen in same time?
The names to layers are same in all documents.
Thank you in advance!

Synchronize Options does not include layers. I would guess that you would have to use Conditional Text to each layer -- could be a lot of work after the fact. If no one else posts a more helpful response, you may want to ask in the Scripting Forum.
I haven't tested it, but it might be possible to ignore or hide the layer(s) in the PDF you distribute or print. Worth a try.

  • After running a disk checker, I have 30 gigs showing as used but unaccounted for anywhere, all the files I moved to an external hdd are still taking up space

    I recently purchased a mac book air with the 128g SDD. After setting it up with all my desired applications I started to download some large media files. Knowing that I'm working with limited HDD space I hooked up a portable 1TB Drive, formatted it for MAC OS Extended (journaled) and moved all of my large files onto the back up drive. After moving all the files in my downloads folder to the trash, and then emptying the trash the space on the SDD "Macintosh HD" did not change. Currently reading at used 91g, available 29g (as seen in the disk utility program with the Macintosh HD highlighted). To find the 'mystery used space' I ran a program called 'DIsk Inventory X' on their opening screen the program shows a smaller capacity with 84g used and 27g free, running the program adds up the value of all the folders and applications on the HD only to discover their is only 54g's accounted for (this is realistic for the files and applications I currently have installed and intend to carry with me on a daily basis)
    So my question is why is my SDD only filing up and not clearing the space I move to trash and empty, at this rate I won't have any space left.

    sounds like the drive may be defective. remember that hardrives can crash at any time even if new and the drives in the air books are just really big flash drives. sound like you have an appointment for the genius bar to get it replaced.
    i have one more possible fix but requires you download a free app called "OnyX". if you are not famliar with the power of this app, be carefull about what you have it do. hit me back up if you choose to go this route. other wise to the apple store you go my friend

  • My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

    The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
    Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

    Hi Dennis,
    I got your advise, I download the openG (i had problems, and downloading directly and install one to one).
    Ok, i got but i have one problem, which i can't solve. I entry the promt  to search and put the directory to save, later i push 'Do it' and it search the files, show the paths and number, then save in the folder and finally show the window , all ok!.
    The problem is with the target path, when i want use the browse, it doesnt run properly. I want select one carpet, and it demands one file, i dont understand why??, i changed the options browse but it didnt work. Also i would like when i put one path if folder doesnt exist, directly create it and save the files, if exist copy it.
    Thanks for all!. I attached the file in lv 7.1

  • 'Hide Skype' greyed out on the File pull down menu

    Why is 'Hide Skype' gryed out in the File pull-dwon menu.  I can only hide by clicking on the S in the dock.

    Clearing History will empty the cache now but it will also clear your favicons. You can clear cache only by going to Safari>Preferences > Advanced and select Show develop menu in the menu bar. There is an option to clear caches from there.

  • I had all my iTunes music backed up onto a hard drive; but the hard drive was stolen along with all the files I backed up onto it. However, the songs I had in iTunes still show up (I just can't play them.) Would it let me get them back?

    I had all my iTunes music backed up onto a hard drive; but the hard drive was stolen along with all the files I backed up onto it. However, the songs I had in iTunes still show up (I just can't play them.) If I were to use iCloud, would it still take those songs and let me listen to them (and maybe re-download them?) Or am I out of luck?

    Open iTunes, go to the iTunes Store, and then go to Purchased on the right hand side under Music Quick Links.
    You can re-download all the songs, apps, or books you have previously purchased.
    I'm not sure if this is a requirement, but just in case, make sure you download the latest version of iTunes (v10.3) too.

  • I am trying to upload files to an Apple hosted feed on KSU iTunes U (unpublished site). The file size shows as 2 GB even though the files are 50MB. The upload stalls and fails. Address:

    I am trying to upload files to an Apple hosted feed on KSU iTunes U (unpublished site). The file size in the Feed Editor shows as 2 GB even though the files are 50MB. I am using Safari on Intel Mac 10.5.8. at Kennesaw State University. Any help would be appreciated.

    This is the second day. I tried using a new Apple feed to test. Still not working. I uploaded a 50MB mp3 file. The first time the upload failed. The second time the file showed that it was uploading a 2 GB file. It has been about 20 minutes now and shows "3.5GB of 2.0GB 178% Completed". Now it has started uploading all over again - it is now showing 399.4MB or 2.0 GB - 19% Completed. I dont know if this will keep looping - but I am going to Cancel.
    Please let me know what other information do you need from me. Definitely need some help with this!

  • I updated my iMac to Mountain Lion. All the files were deleted. I have Time Machine backups. When I restart the mac pressing Command R to restore from backup it shows the previous OS X (Leopard) beside the date of the backup. Will it go back if I restore?

    I updated my iMac to Mountain Lion. All the files were deleted. I have Time Machine backups. When I restart the mac pressing Command R to restore it from the backup it shows the previous OS X (Leopard) beside the date of the backup that I want to select. Will it go back to Leopard if I restore it from the backup?

    No, it won't revert to the prior OS X but you you may have third party apps installed that were compatible with Lion that may not be compatible with Mountain Lion.

  • ITunes Match - Nothing showing on my iPhone - tried all the basics

    I have a fair bit of experience with iDevices and have been running Match from the day it was released so I have had a number of glitches which are usually sorted by either switching itunes match on and off, signing into iTunes numerous times, wiping your device etc....
    I have recently switched iTunes Match off on my phone in order to wipe it and then back on.. Once back on no music would show. I have tried all the steps listed above, and still once the large cloud with the loading bar dissapears (after showing no loading) there is nothing in my library.
    I can confirm that my iTunes is showing all my songs on multiple computers, all 17000 of them.
    I am working on a 10mb/s confirmed internet connection,
    Please Help.
    PS. Loving Apple's offerings, but they don't seem to be hitting the level of quality and service that one would expect when paying the premiums Apple demand.

    This should probably sort out the problem for you: Re: iTunes Match - 'No Music' on iPhone 4

  • When adding ringtones (created by ringtone app) they show in music tab nor tones. the file type in 'get info' is 'ringtone'. Why is this?

    When adding ringtones (created by ringtone app) they show in music tab nor tones. the file type in 'get info' is 'ringtone'. Why dont they display in the 'tones' tab in itunes?  How can I get them to display under 'tones' not 'music'.

    Well, I tried rebuilding the Launch services with the command listed but still no luck. After having no luck with that and deleting caches, etc....I also, went to my home (user) directory and in Preferences, I deleted the com.apple.launchservices.plist file. I restarted and checked and still the same result.
    Also, I want to emphasize again that the file type I am discussing DOES actually launch with the correct application. (Cubase files in my example).
    But it is just annoying that ALL of my Cubase files display the Pro Tools application icon, and in Get Info they are listed to open with Pro Tools. But they actually do launch Cubase if double clicked.
    And one other VITAL note....if I open Get Info for one of these files, and change the Open With from Pro Tools to Cubase....then that choice DOES "stick" and retain. (if I "don't" also click Change All)
    It's only when I click "Change All" that it DOESN'T stick and the list selection jumps back to Pro Tools. I hope that may offer some clarity.
    Thanks for the tips but I am still back at square one.

    Can pacman list out all the files that any packages provides without having that package installed? I learned that pacman -Ql linux does this but the linux packages is installed on my system. Thanks!

    I am trying to use it but it doesn't work right with my options. I want to find any package that gives a directory called "russian" but it isn't finding one I know does called "festvox-ru" as I show you:
