Missing .dng file exists as Cr2. How batch designate them?

How the situation came about :
I selected all edited photos (regardless of noted stars) in the library module and chose to all "convert them into DNG", with the option to NOT remoove the original Cr2 after conversion.
Lightroom stoped the process after 90 minutes / 80% donne; because of disk space shortage.
"Unfortunately" I then decided to simply delete all the just made dng's to start all over again, because this time I decided I should anyway only convert the 4 and 5 star rated images.
But in the process of converting within the library, Lightroom had thus of course also changed 80% of the image-names in its catalogue into "SameFileName+DNG!" extention, thuse making 80% of the files showing as missing (because i just deleted these dng's).
I have no problem to teach LR / designating for instance "_MG_9999.Cr2" (+xmp) to be the target for the "missing" catalogue-file ""_MG_9999.DNG" (incidently in the same folder).
BUT, even if I check the box to let Lightroom learn from this "new" path, it will NOT do so for the hundreds of images (those 80%) since it seems to consider that this extention mix I provoced changes the name entierly without taking into account that file Name have not actualy changed ! That means I have to re-atribute every single file manualy ! ?
Should there not be a way, for insatnce, to go into a (Win7) Lightroom catalog-folder and batch-rename the ('virtual') catalogue-files ...DNG into ...Cr2 ?
(I have no backup of the cataloge from just before I "converted" int DNG.)
I'd appréciate any help - or let Adobe know to develop "untangle" menus..)

If you have no backup, your easiest option is to create DNG files again - but maybe in smaller chunks so you don't run out of disc space. Use the standalone DNG converter (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4724) to create the DNG files and put them back where LR's expecting to find them.

After an automatic update my files are gone. How do Iget them back?

after an automatic update my files are gone. How do I get them back?

Do you know the name of any of the files you are looking for? Do you have a Time Machine backup? Can you search (using spotlight) for any of these files?
Any chance they were in the trash when you started the update? Any chance they were on an external drive which is NOT plugged in at this time?

2 Questions: Missing audio files...and How to delete audio files

I have two nagging issues associated with my podcast at iTunes.
First, audio files are missing from the podcast. Everytime I post m4a files to my podcast, they are added to an xml file, and to the podcast. The xml file is complete, but some files are not making the trip to the podcast.
Second, I have a need to delete some of the audio files which appear in my podcast. How do I do that?
Thanks!

As has been suggested you can encourage people to download QuickTime player by doing something like this...
http://www.mirroroftheuniverse.com/Songs.html
You can also present your songs like this...
http://roddymckay.com/Satellite/JukeBox.html
This is a SnoCap jukebox and you need an account to use it but you'll get the link to ESnips on the above page.
A 3 minute song has a file size of about 30 Mb in AIFF format. Converting it to MP3 reduces it to about 3.5 Mb and M4A to about 5.5 Mb.
iTunes will do these conversions for you and M4A is far superior to MP3 as far as sound quality is concerned.

Attachment files to an invoice -- how to store them?

Hello,
Our developers use the FB02 transaction code and after entering a document number and company code they click on the "Services for Object" button>Create>Create Attachment and then attach a .PDF file to the invoice and save.
Now, I have a couple of questions regarding how this works in the background:
1) It looks like a reference of some sort for each of these attachments is saved in table(s) SRGBTBREL and/or SOFFCONT1. However, I cannot tell if it is a "link" to the actual attachment that is saved in these tables or is it the actual attachment itself, just converted to a raw binary data format -- stored in the database?
2) If the .PDF attachment(s) are saved in the database itself -- is it possible to NOT save them in the database directly but instead create a reference link for each attachment which would pull the actual .PDF file from a "file server"?
You see my problem is that I do not want my database to grow exponentially due to saving these .PDF attachments on the database server....is there a way to get around this and make sure that the .PDF files are kept on a file server -- not on the database?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

Hi,
This process is active in our system and we are able to attach mannually attachment to the invoice,but we want to automate this process and attach the document using some code.
I want to know is there any function module which can help me in doing this..
Regards,
Vidya.

Missing APPLICATIONS & FILE Icons and can't find my themes

Please help. I have a 3rd party application that I downloaded as required to my computer & now I need to transfer 5 files (JAR & TAR) files to my phone. It says to follow the path: files/media card/ Blackberry/new_phones.In the instructions it says to go to "Applications" icon and click, then "file" icon and click which will bring up ALL files, then click on "File Folders" then Media Card, then Blackberry then press new_phones, then click new phones again and I should see the files I need to set permissions on. I do not find a APPLICATION OR FILE ICON. I can go to Options, then advanced options and then applications but when I get there nothing says FILE. I have already put everything back to factory settings thinking maybe they were deleted at some point but there is still NO icons for these. I really do need some help installing these files to my phone. I dont mind if someone wants to remote into my computer to help me even. And since I reset everything to factory settings, I can't get to ABOUT to find out what OS that I am using or when I went to set a new theme that I just downloaded it only has one BB theme (BB Dimension Zen), the new one I just downloaded isn't even showing up. PLEASE help me fix my mess up and install the files to the phone. Thanks in advance.

It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty. You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod. If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

OLD files called MooV! How to play them?

Hi there,
I was recently looking to get some glimmering water footage for a shot in a project I'm working on and remembered that, like 8 or 9 YEARS ago I had some footage elements that would be perfect. So I went to searching on my old backups and found the discs, yay! However, somehow they are labeled as .MooV and when I try to open them Quicktime says it doesn't support them! I am certain I produced these files using AE, but a much much earlier version. Does anyone know what is needed to be able to view these files? When I import into AE now they show up blank white.
Thanks so much.
Best,
Fredo

thanks so much, SeanBall! And, yes indeed, AVBV!!! That rings a loud bell in my head, so you are dead on. Thanks so much for clearing up the problem. Can I install AVBV on Windows XP? My roommate has such a computer... Sadly, both of my other computers have Tiger, and I have a new one coming tomorrow with Leopard, so no Classic environment. Anyway, if you could send me the codec that would be great: fredo (at) aviola (dot) com.
Muchos muchos gracias!

.Rem files removed from blackberry, how to copy them back?

Unaware of all the issues surrounding .rem files, I copied the files to my desktop using the default windows media manager and checked the "erase from device" option.
So now I have all the .rem files on my computer which I cannot view, and if I copy them back to the pictures folder on my blackberry, they donot show up in the media library on the phone.
I am happy to mail these files to myself from my blackberry, however is there any way to get them back onto my blackberry??
Please help.
Thanks.

Now that you've copied them to your pictures folder, do a powered on, battery pull reboot, and the cache should update with the pictures in the folder.

DNG Converter Not Recognizing .CR2 Files

I have a new Canon EOS 5D Mark II and CS3, so I cannot view the CR2 files from the 5D in Bridge in their native format. I read all the posts and upgraded to ACR 4.6, then upgraded the camera profiles to those in the ACR 5.2 package (the one that includes the 5D Mark II).
I then read that I need the DNG Converter to generate DNG files from the CR2 files, so I have installed DNG 6.3.
Problem now is that the DNG Converter will not recognize any CR2 files on my machine, neither the new 5D Mark II CR2 files of my old Rebel CR2 files. When I navigate to a folder containing CR2 files with DNG it says "No images have been selected" in the "Select images to convert" section of the GUI.
I have no idea what to do, I need to get the DNG Converter working to view the files from my new camera in Bridge. Help!

I wish I could say your solution worked - but it didn't! I have a Canon T2i, the very latest version of the Adobe "converter" (8.4) - and it refuses to recognize/find any Canon RAW (i.e. CR2) files. My desktop is 2 years old with lot of horsepower, Win 7, plain vanilla etc.
Step 1: Folder Selected ("Bonaire 2006")
folder selected.jpg
2. When I press "Convert", I get:
No CR2 files recognized.jpg
Another view of the problem:
after getting this: (BTW "Bonaire" is stuffed with CR2 files). Same problem all folders
no items match your search - say what.jpg
I've used a thousand utility programs for any number of purposes - something is amiss here - prompts or not!

Photoshop CS won't read 5.2 DNG files

I recently had a student use the stand alone DNG converter V.5.2 on his Canon 5D Mark II raw files but Photoshop CS won't read the resultant .dng files. Our copy of CS3 reads them ok but he only has CS and neither his version of CS nor ours will read the files. My understanding has been that .dng files can be read by any version of Photoshop that works with Raw files. Is this no longer true? Or was it never true? Thanks.

Hi Thomas,
Installing 2.4 took care of the problem. Boy, does the CS version of Camera Raw seem crude compared to the full featured version you've given us now. I remember it as being pretty impressive at the time but I sure wouldn't want to have to go back to it. I think I've convinced the student how much he's missing out on by not having CS4 but at least he'll be able to work with his Raw files until he upgrades. Thanks for your help.

.dng files do not open full size in PS CC

I've been working with Canon .CR2 files and later Adobe .dng files for years, and could always open them in Photoshop. Now, with PS CC, the files open as small previews (420 x 280 px) instead of the full size. This means I cannot work with my photographs!!!! I haven't found a setting in either Bridge or PS to correct this.

I open pic files by either double-clicking on them in Bridge or on the desktop, or using "Open" from within PS. iPhoto is not involved at all. It's not something funny I'm doing; it's a bug in PS CC (I've been using PS since 1990).

Lightroom not finding DNG files in the folder

I am using Lightroom 2.5. My library includes a folder with approximately 5000 images which is located on an external hard drive as is my Lightroom catalog. I use the external dive because it is part of a RAID 1 array to backup my images.
My problem began when I used Lightroom to convert the 600 RAW files in the folder to DNG files. Prior to the conversion, the library tab showed that there were 5000 files in the folder. After the conversion, the library tab shows that there are only 4400 files. The DNG files are actually there but Lightroom will not recognize them. I can use windows explorer to see them and that there are 5000 files in the directory.
I have tried to synchronize the folder, but it did not help. I have also tried to write metadata to the files to make sure that was not the problem and it was no help. As a test, I also copied the directory to my local hard drive and imported that into Lightroom. That folder has the correct 5000 images, but of course non of the ratings that I had applied to the 5000 files to organize them so the local folder is useless.
Can anyone suggest a means of convincing Lightroom that it should recognize the missing DNG files that are actually there?
Thank you.

John,
Thank you for your suggestions. I do have filters off.
I started up Lightroom today and again, the Folders tab only showed that the folder had 600 files which corresponds to the missing 600 DNG files. Furthermore, in the grid view, only the 600 DNG files were appearing. But, after a minute and without my input, Lightroom loaded up the 4400 JPEG images into the grid and the DNG files disappeared both from the file count and the grid view.
When I look at the All Photographs folder in grid view, I can find the missing DNG files so they are in the All Photographs folder.
I did as you suggested and I optimized the catalogue. Now when I launch Lightroom, I see the missing 600 DNG files in the grid view and the file count for the folder. But that only lasts a few seconds before the 4400 JPEGS appear and the DNG files disappear. So the optimization made the loading faster as it should, but did not help Lightroom to find the DNG files.
Now when I try to synchronize the folder, It does show that there are 600 files to be added. However, synchronization does not help and DNG files are still missing.
I can see the DNG files in a folder called “Already in Catalog” from when I tried to synchronize the original folder. After optimizing the catalog, I told Lightroom to write metadata for the DNG files. Once I did that, some of the missing DNG files did appear in the grid view of the original folder (but not all of the 600 missing files). However, the library still only shows 4400 files in the folder.
One last oddity. When I change the sort to “user order” from “capture time”, I see only the 600 missing DNG files in the grid view. The 4400 JPEG files are gone. But when I change the sort back to capture time, the JPEG files and the few DNG files are there again and most of the DNG files are gone.
This bugginess is only occurring on the external drive. The same files saved to the local hard drive all appear in the file count and the grid view.
Thank you.
