Lost link to files

Hi, duirng a PC upgrade I had to re-install PE Premiere and Elements 11 but lost the links to the images/move clips for the movie; they are visible in organiser and all the formatting for the movie is there but the images do not come up when I open the .prel file to continue the editing.

Welcome to the forum.
I agree with Steve. The files are easy to relink. See this article for more detail: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4598705#4598705
Good luck,

ICal 4.0.4 attachment(s) in event lost (link to file disappears) in a copied or duplicated copy of that same event that originally had the attachment(s) linked to. Say event "Birthday" had a cake.jpg attached to it, then a copy of it has no cake.jpg.

Figure 1 below outlines the
<1 PROBLEM: Whlie an event with an attachment is duplicated, the duplicated event looses or "forgets" the link to the attachment that the original event had. See Figure 1:
Figure 1 iCAL screenshot with two events: 1) Original 2) Duplicate of Original. The "Duplicate of Original" event lacks the link to the attachment in event "Original".

I did that - It doesn't list any obvious (well, to me) errors. The job that the printer 'forgot' seems to have come through OK, at least on the computer side.

Library lost link to files

Hi, I've experienced a very annoying bug.
I've opened iTunes and every single song that I choose to play ask me to find the file. Is there a way to indicate to the application the correct path for everysong instead of deleting and reimport all again?
Thanks

Right click on one of the files and do "Get Info" and look at the first tab and look to see where iTunes is looking for the files.
If you're keeping your iTunes Library on an External HD, it's possible that the drive letter isn't the same as it usually is, so you'll need to change the drive letter back to where it usually is. With both Windows and MAC, this is fairly easily done, but a bit complicated to find.

Lost links for Files

Hi!
I have read a lot of messages on the forum about a similar situation, but not exactly the same as mine.
I have 4 partitions on my computer. One I was using for my music. This has become full. I decided to move only some of the files to another partition. So I have the library split over two partitions. Now the iTunes cannot find the new location. I don't want to put the whole library in one area, but it's a pain now you relink over a 100 mp3. Is there a way to universally search as a multiselect option.
Thanks in advance

Seems the easy way to do what you wanted was to tell iTunes to NOT COPY files of songs you add to the library. Then, remove the items from the library but DO OT let iTunes delete any of the actual files.
Now place the files you want to move where you want them to live. Drag and drop that location into your iTunes library.
This will result in having some of your song files in one place and others elsewhere and all of them in your library.

Lost link to event files after upgrade to OS Mavericks

I recently upgraded my iMac from OS 10.7 (Lion) to OS 10.9.1 (Mavericks). I am using Premier Pro CC. During the upgrade, the link to event files on incompleted projects was lost. Can someone help me reestablish these lost links?
Any help will be appreciated, Thanks.

Clips represent your media, but they are not the media files themselves. The clips in a project simply point to (link to) the source media files on your hard disk. This link was lost when I upgraded and I hope there is someway to reestablish this link without starting the projects from scratch.
Thanks

[450 Transfer aborted. Link to file server lost] Followed Adobe Chat advise..still getting this message..

Since after trying four times this morning to log on to Chat support to continue working on this issue with them only to find chat it isn't working..I thought I would try here before I take a bat or some other item and disassemble my computer with it. Details on what is happening, what I have done, etc...
After updating my website using Muse the following happens:
I save my site.
I click FTP upload
Go through the first screens
Hit okay for upload
Pages load
Then uploading images begins…goes to either the first or third (61-62%) and stalls. After waiting for what seems forever..a new box appears.
Error:
Error uploading file loanimal2013.jpg. Click Resume to try again. If this problem persists, try again later.
[450 Transfer aborted. Link to file server lost]
Sometimes I can hit resume, the image will load immediately and it will continue for a more images then stops again.
Yet I have not gotten past about 74% or the 25th image before it or me stops as this is very time consuming. Time that I don’t have.
After speaking to an Adobe representative last week, it was suggested that maybe because my files were on an external that could be the issue and suggested relinking them. So, I did.
The process I followed was:
Go to assets
Right click Relink
Searched…Found corresponding image moved it to my local hard drive… then highlighted it in local folder…hit the Open button on the bottom
It returned me back to the original screen
I repeated this for all the assets
After relinking them…I saved the page…reopened it…tried uploading and it still having the same issues
After this didn’t work I contacted the host company and they checked to see if images could load by ftp and found no issues.
I am past frustrated at this moment, as I have been using the same method of saving and uploading for a few years now and suddenly I have this issue. And, I am not a technical person so I have no idea what else to do…if you can help it would be appreciated.

I had a drive failure and lost the iWeb file along with other things. I did manage to save a lot of user file documents but I don't see or recognize the my iWeb site file. It was on a 15" G4 Titanium pb. I'm trying to find a way, using version 2.0.4

I did manage to save a lot of user file documents but I don't see or

I'm trying to find a way, using version 2.0.4 of iWeb on a different
pb to recover the file into the iWeb app or a way to download the site into iWeb.
There are 6 pages of images and text, and it
would be a task for me to recreate the whole thing again. I did
download the site but I don't know how or if I can get iWeb to see it and open it.
Does anyone have any knowledge about this? The link to my site:

Unfortunately iWeb cannot read or import previously published files, only generate them. You'll have to recreate your site from scratch.
However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.

How to recover lost folders and files - Pls help, help...

Some days ago I lost all of my 15 GB folders and files that stored in my Macbook Pro hard drive called DATA. I brought my Macbook pro to an experienced computer tecnicians who providing data recovery services. To his and my suprise, after checking, scanning it a few hours, he said their is no way to recover because he did not find any trails at all. The computer still seems working properly - I have no problem with any applications. There are few other folders in the DATA hard disk containing pictures, computer programs still remain. These lost folders and files contain mainly documents (word, excel, power point, pdf etc) which I accumulated in my many years working !!!!. I did not make a back up since last September partly because I think Mac is very safe.
The computer with me all the time on that day and only my son used Power Point to make a simple presentation on that evening - he can not save it on the folders the he normally use - All the folders and files are gone.
I will appreciate it very much if any of you can tell me what would be the possible causes and more importanly how to recover the lost folders and files. They are very very valuable to me.
Many thanks for your kind attention

First, did the data actually get deleted, or is it still there somewhere? Try searching the drive for some of the documents, perhaps it's all just in another folder on that drive.
If it's truly gone, it's impossible for us to say what might have happened to make it unrecoverable. Perhaps someone using the computer used Secure Empty Trash, or securely erased empty space on the hard drive. Perhaps it was overwritten by other stuff before you noticed. It's possible the hard drive is starting to fail, though this seems like an awfully specific problem for that to be the issue.
Or perhaps the tech you took the computer to didn't know what he was doing. Why not try recovering what you can on your own? See Recovering deleted files.
You should be aware that no computer is safe. All computers rely on hardware that may fail and software that can have bugs. You absolutely MUST maintain a good set of frequently-updated backups... no fewer than two full backups of anything you don't want to lose.

Lost all my files in ipad pages app

I lost all my files on the apple pages app on my ipad. How do I retrieve my lost files?

Dock folders are only links to the actual folders which should be located in your user folder.
Open a finder window andf click on your name. Then yo'll get a list of all your folders which are located there. Standrad should be eight folders: desktop, movies, pictures, music, websites, public, downloads and documents.
When you click on that one, is it still empty?
Maybe you should check about your problem on one of this site:

"Lost Link" err msg

I'm a PM "newbie" trying to access PM6 pubs in PM7 which apparently converts PM6 pubs for use in PM7. However "lost link" err msgs appear for several files. I answered "ignore all" and the conversion continued but nothing from the PM6 pub appears in the PM7 screen.
(1) is this due to "lost link" err msg ? If so, how do i correct ?
(2) if not due to "lost link" msg what am i doing wrong ?
Thanx.
Bob

Newbie? Seriously…stop right now.
Don’t even bother. PM is DEAD and not worth 5 minutes of your time to learn.
Look into InDesign instead.
BTW, in pagelayout applications, graphics are linked to their source files, not embedded. That means if you have a photo you need the actual file.

Accidently downloaded Firefox 5. Now cannot "Send link" in File. Why? What must I do?

By accident Firefox 5 was downloaded, and I lost previous toolbar, one containing a link to Gmail.
I tried to "send link" in File but nothing happens. Previous Firefox system worked just fine.
What can I do to get back what I had? Can I undo Firefox 5 and return to previous, earlier version? How could I do this?

I have now lost the two files:
Spotlight/com.apple.spotlight.plist
Spotlight/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
Cannot find them in the original Snow Leaopard disk. Any Ideas???
I cannot find the Symantec files to delete because Spotlight and Finder are not working.
Do you think I could copy the missing spotlight files from another MacBook pro?

Lost links

We bought a newspaper and changed the name of the hard drive, therefore losing all the links in pagemaker. How do we change the name of the hard drive back to the orginial name? I can't seem to get it to change.

This has turned into a nightmare!

Hi, Mary -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
The name of a drive can be changed the same way you would change the name of a document or folder - click on the name under the icon and wait for it to highlight - you can then edit it as needed. If you twitch the cursor a little bit just after clicking on the name, it should highlight immediately.
Another way - click on the icon, then press Enter - the name should highlight immediately.
Note - as long as File Sharing is active for that drive, the name can not be changed. If that is the case, either disable File Sharing or unshare that drive. Once the name has been fixed you can redo File Sharing.
The reason that File Sharing prevents a name change for a volume is to avoid lost links and dropped connections for other machines.

Any solutions for lost render/preview files when opening files?s

Have any solutions been found for the intermittent lost render/preview files when opening a large file? I have Premiere CS6. A large project file that I have been working on lately opened without a hitch with previews intact ...until I bought new faster hard drives and rebuilt the computer (built with the same drive letters). I just installed the latest updates. When I now open this file, a segment of the sequence always opens without previews, unrendered, no matter how many times I rendered the file previously. I don't use 3rd party plugins. I am using the warp stabilizer. I tried all the suggestions that I have found on the forums (using a blank sequence to close and open, unchecking “write XMD…” etc.) but none work. I checked the render/preview drive, and these files are on that drive but they will no longer link to the project. It now takes a good 15 minutes to re-render every time I open.

I may have found a solution. I took out the warp stabilizer, and then added it back in on the clips in question, and then re-analysed and re-rendered. So far, so good. It seems that bringing in the warp stabilizer effect in the file into the re-built computer needed re-analysing (as I do after this 2 day exercise.)
