LR3: "Find file" when locating images error?

When moving images from a portable drive that i use when on the road, i wish to copy them to my harddrive back at home (copy, not "drag & drop move" from within LR3 library modeule, as i wish to keep them on the portable drive). Within LR2 i would then unplug the portable drive, use "Show in Finder" and then "Fnd Image" (ensuring that "Locate Nearby missing images" is on) and that then makes the connection to all of the images in that folder on the main drive at home.
The only problem is that so far in LR3, this system of finding individual images does not appear to be working - i can click all the way thorugh to the image on the central home drive, but when clicked, it does not make that connection.
"Find folder" works ok, but not if you have images from seperate occasions in there, then it can't work; only "Find Image".
Has the process changed for LR3? Any suggestions please as a 10 second job, now requires 1+ hour to copy between folders, drag and dropping then re-copying.
Thanks

That's a bug in LR 3.0 that was fixed in LR 3.2RC, as far as I can tell.
The only problem is that so far in LR3, this system of finding individual images does not appear to be working - i can click all the way thorugh to the image on the central home drive, but when clicked, it does not make that connection.
The workaround is to click the question mark icon on the thumbnail instead if clicking "Show in Finder" from the pop-up menu. This way you avoid the bug.
Also, why not try installing LR 3.2 RC to check if it solves the problem when clicking "Show in Finder" and subsequently "Find Image".

It would be best to avoid such special characters in file names and remove or replace them with valid characters when saving the file.

can not find file, must locate each song one at a time need to restore my whole library

Hello BadSteve,
It sounds like iTunes seems to have lost track of all your music and you must locate each file individually. I would recommend at this point that you check for 3rd party plugins to see if there are any causing an issue:
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3430
If the issue persists after removing the plugins, I would next try recreating your iTunes library:

I get itunes can't find file when I tried to play a TV show I had purchased that was supposed to be in the cloud. There are several of these, including an entire season. In the store it shows that I purchased these shows when I checked them.

I get itunes can't find file when I tried to play a TV show I had purchased. I then checked and had this problem with an entire TV season I had purchesed. The shows were supposed to be in the cloud. I went to the itunes store, went to the tv shows and they showed that I had purchesed them. They do not show up when I click on purchesed in the store.

Try this...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Does iPhoto 09 create a modified file when an image is rotated?

Does iPhoto 09 create a modified file when an image is rotated.
What about preview?
Thanks

If you use iPhoto, than use iPhoto. Remember, the modified file is usually much smaller than the original, it is really more of a preview. And if you do any other editing, you don't create multiple modifieds, iPhoto puts all your edits, including rotation, in one modified file.
Preview does not claim to be lossless, so it probably does not create a behind the scenes modified image.

Can't find files when building EXE unless the WHOLE codebase is in an auto-populating folder

I have a project with FPGA (specifically a couple cRIO targets).
I have a build spec for a PC target, then a target that's set up for Scan Mode, then a couple targets set up for FPGA mode.
When I try and build the FPGA or Scan Mode targets, I NEED to have the entire code folder (and sub-folders) in an auto-populating folder.
What's strange is that I manually added the same folder, and then pulled the Top-level VI out so that it was easier to see within the project. When I did that, I got errors that files were broken and missing. I then removed that folder and added the same folder as auto-populating and all is well.
Yes, I was able to make the build work by including debugging, not removing TypeDefs, etc. This also cause the build to go from 2MB and 30 secodns build time to 50MB + 10 min build time.
Why si this? I would like to remove the files for other targets from the Source of each of the targets. If I do this, I can't build (these are other top-level VIs that are not appropriate on a per target basis).
Any ideas?

Hey Jed,
It sounds like the problem you are having is coming from a file path issue. When you manually add folders as "Snapshot" the file paths are set and will generate errors if the files are moved. The autopopulating folder updates file path locations so you don't have those same issues. Debug mode allows for the file paths to be reassociated, but at the expense of time, and in some cases resources. Enabling debugging will cause the compilation to take longer.
You wrote:
So what I am trying to say is that ALL I did when I removed the auto-populate was to click "Stop Auto Populate" and moved the Top-level VI up one folder level within the project. This causes it to fail compile (unless debugging is checked).
This makes complete sense. By moving ANY VI in a project and not having the folder set to auto-populate or having debugging enabled will cause an error because that VI that you moved isn't where it is supposed to be. This is the way that projects and the compilation of programs was designed.
To avoid this, don't move files around after they have been added to the project unless you have folders set to autopopulate, or have debug mode enabled. When you start shuffling file paths, associations get broken and compilations will fail.

Can't find file when use the main(String[] args) method

I put a file under the DefaultDomain directory of Weblogic 11.1.1.5 on my local machine. Below is how I look up this file
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("input.xml");
I started up the IntegratedWeblogicServer instance and I tested using the below 2 approaches.
1) When I test a web service program using the below approach, it CAN'T find the input.xml file
public static void main(String[] args)
2) When I package it into an EAR file and deploy it onto the server then log into the admin console and use the test client approach then it's able to find the file
How do I make it so it can find the file using #1 approach?
Thanks

That's how relative paths work, and it's nothing particular to Java.
When you type ls input.xml or dir input.xml does it list the file, or give an error? If it lists the file, then it's in your current directory, and it will work if you run Java from that directory. If it gives an error, then that file is not in your current working directory, and Java won't be able to find it either.

Finding files when you develop web program

Hi. I develop web app. I deploy application on GlassFish. I have stateless session bean. There code reads data from file and checks retrieved value. File f= new File("category.properties"); suppose to locate the file category.properties in Project's directory. But the program can't find it there. The file exist in that directory.
Somehow that file was found before in Project's directory and deployed to GlassFish. So I noticed that the program checks just if the file exist on GlassFish, but does not check if the file is in Project's directory. As well the program updates data in file which is inside GlassFish but leaves alone same file in Project's directory.
If you run that class which reads file from Project's directory using separate main method which runs just that class, then the program sees the file in Project's directory and updates it.
How to force the web program to read/find file in Project's directory and if you make updates show those updates in Project's directory file.
Cheers

A deployed application has no relation at all to a 'project'. What you want is the application to find a file in a specific directory.
In your case you will probably only want to read from the file, so your best bet is to put the file on the classpath (for example, put it in the 'classes' subdirectory of your war) and load it using getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(). In other words, make the properties file part of your project resources.

Cannot find file when starting jnlp from browser

First of all, im not a web guru, so sorry for my weak knowledge on that part.
I have a swing application packed in a war file.
In the root of war file i put my jnlp, html that links to jnlp, and jar file. (everything created with NetBeans)
But there is also a directory "data" inside war where i hold some files.
My application is accessing those files at runtime. (those are save files for my game)
So, when i start jnlp directly everything is fine, but when i start jnlp through html link, i got error message:
SEVERE: null
java.io.FileNotFoundException: data\options.data (The system cannot find the path specified)
     at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
     at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(Unknown Source)
     at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(Unknown Source)
        ...Java Web Start starts correctly, i can see my first panel of the application, but when i proceed (application tries to load save file), it can not find that file (options.data) obviously.
How is it possible that everything works fine when i start jnlp directly, and it fails when i start it through the browser?
What is the problem here?
Thanks for the help!

Of course the JRE is not going to find a data\options.data on my PC, which is where it will look for it, if your software is running on my PC. Resources for JWS projects must either be available as an URL from the server, or downloaded locally to the user's local file system before they can be used as files. Why it fails to find it on your PC is probably that the 'root path' (the default directory at time of invocation) that is prefixed to data\options.data is different between running it off the local file system, and running from HTML. To say for sure, I would need a lot more information on how you are launching it when 'running locally'.
A major question here is, does the software merely read the data in options.data, or does it actually need to update (i.e. write to) the options.data?

Itunes can not find file. Locate file.

Sometimes I try to play a music and a message appears indicating that file can not find. I have to locate each file individually. Why this ocurr.

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Perhaps you've been using Windows Media Player and it has "helpfully" renamed some of the files. Ideally you should disable all WMPs options for automatically updating your media. You might also find the following useful.
*Adding new items/removing orphans*
Try iTunes Folder Watch or iTunes Library Updater. Folder Watch is much faster on the adding files front, can be set to run in the background and includes a useful exclusion feature, however it’s slow at removing orphans. iTLU is better for this although doing it manually after looking at a list of proposed removals generated by Folder Watch is probably faster still. iTLU can also be set to update iTunes when you've used 3rd party tools to change tag info.
You may need to amend the list of file types these programs look for. My list includes:
.mp3 .mp4 .m4a .m4b .m4p .m4v .mov .wav .aif .mid .ipa .ipg .ite .itlp .m4r .pdf
Note the last 6 types may not be recognised as already being in the library so should either be omitted from the search or you can add (at least for Folder Watch) individual exclusions for files you know are already in your library.

Finder Quits When Showing Image Preview

Since my upgrade to Leopard, Finder frequently quits.
For example: In frame view: I open a folder with many photos, before even looking at the frame-view preview (in the right), Finder quits.
Similarly, this happens when I'm changing views from List to Frame-View to Quick-View, etc.
This mainly happens with images (of all sizes.)
Any ideas?

Where did the images come from? Perchance out of Adobe's image management program? Did you add any info to them? There is a serious incompatiblity going on between image info formats from Adobe and the Finder. One hopes this will get fixed with the 10.5.2 update. See this thread, among many:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6144463
Not good.

Finder crashes when uploading Images to Wordpress and Facebook

Hi All,
This is a bit od a long description, but I wanted it to be specifec and detailed as I've tried a couple of searches through the discussions and none of the other solutions suggested have worked so far.
I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on a 2.2Ghz Core I7 MBP with 8GB of RAM.
I recently set up my own website and installed Wordpress. As it is a photography website, it involves a lot of image uploads, however every time I try to use the uploader and select my files through the web form, the browser hangs and so does the Finder. This behavior is the same across Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
The only way to get things rolling is to do a hard reset (using the power button). A friend of mine has faced the same issue in his system both with Wordpress and Facebook... And the two of us a stumped.
Here are some of the possible solutions I've tried :
Disable Intego Firewall
Disable Little Snitch
Repairing disk permissions through disk utility
Use Onyx to clear user and system caches
My suspicions lie with java asI believe both those sites use Java based uplod applets (sure about facebook,not sure about wordpress)
As a last resort, I've gone to the extent of installing windows on a Paralles Vm and using the browser there to perform the upload, but this has resulted in a crash once and the finder becoming unresponsive.
Any light you can share on the matter would be most appreciated.
If there are any logs I need to post here, please let me know how I'd get to them as I'm not too good with the Mac OS system utilities.
Thanks.
Brian

Ok took this one step further and swapped out the 8GB upgrade back to the 4GB that originally came with my laptop.This didnt solve the problem so I dont think this is related to the hardware.
Here's one more thing I noticed though. The crash doesnt happen if you upload files the moment you turn on the PC. But after about 15 minutes of usage if I try to upload the file... system down.
It also baffles me that finder gets taken down along with the browser......
Anyone with a similar issue / solution ?

How to find files when my purchased and downloaded songs have red exclamation point and say file cannpot be found?

I recently replaced my PC and when I attempted to reinstall Itunes and sync to my Ipod Classic, many purchased songs and downloaded songs now have a red exclamation point to their left and a windo appears saying that the file cannot be found. How do I locate these files? Thanks!

Normally by default iTunes library files are in "My Document/My music/iTunes/Itunes Music" for earlier iTunes version. but the newer iTunes put it in a new folder "iTunes Media" instead of "iTunes Music" You can also search a music file name that you downlloaded and see where that folder is.
If you have transfered the old PC iTunes library files to your new PC, you still need to tell the new iTunes, where they are located. If your old PC iTunes is earlier than iTunes 9, then you got to move it from ../iTunes Music to ../iTunes Media folder. and point iTunes to where all your files are.

"Safari cannot find file" when I use "Preview in Safari" in Dreamweaver CS4

I am experiencing problems with AFP network users working in Dreamweaver when they try to view pages with "Preview in Safari" when Safari is already running. If Safari is closed and launches from scratch, then pages display correctly. This is isolated to network users only. When logged in locally, files display correctly whether Safari is running or not.
I tested this same scenario in Firefox and it worked correctly each time. Hear are results from both Safari and Firefox for an AFP network user working on a file saved in their home directory. All four attempts were made from Dreamweaver using the "Preview in browser" feature:
From Safari when it is already running:
file:///Users/millersr/Documents/DW%20CIB%20Site/lesson03/santorini.html
From Safari when it launched from scratch:
file:///Network/Servers/macserver.crhs.chesterfield.k12.sc.us/Volumes/User%20RAI D/Users/millersr/Documents/DW%20CIB%20Site/lesson03/santorini.html
From Firefox when it is already running:
file:///Network/Servers/macserver.crhs.chesterfield.k12.sc.us/Volumes/User%20RAI D/Users/millersr/Documents/DW%20CIB%20Site/lesson03/santorini.html
From Firefox when launched from scratch:
file:///Network/Servers/macserver.crhs.chesterfield.k12.sc.us/Volumes/User%20RAI D/Users/millersr/Documents/DW%20CIB%20Site/lesson03/santorini.html
To make a long story short, when Safari is running the full path is not sent to Safari. We are using DW CS4 (but this also happened with DW CS3).
Any help is greatly appreciated!

A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed (including reseting PSE as the external editor) and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.
