Missing file icons

I have just copied all my files (mainly music/pictures) to an external drive. I replaced bigger drives in NAS and copied files back. There are no icons in PUBLIC folder!! If I try to copy again, I get message to say file already exists.
What is going on?? Does anyone have any suggestions? Have I done something wrong or not done something that I should have??
iMac running 10.5.8, files on Patriot Valkyrie NAS.

Red Missing File Warning

Hello to all-
Getting the missing file icon when the original files are in place. Verified it by "reveal in finder" and reveal in browser". Nothing has changed on the drive where the project and events folder are located.
I had some FxFactory effects on the clips, and uninstalled all the FxFactory plugins due to too many crashes. But the underlying media is still on my drive.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello Tom-
Thank you for your response. Now it's even a more bizare situation. The orange bar is above the footage, the render circle reads 100%, and when I select Render All from the Modify menu, nothing happens!
You are correct in that it is chromakeyed footage.
The mystery continues. I'm going to restart everything and see if the render begins.

Help with missing files in Elements 3

I am not a computer wizard an dI am trying to catalogue my digital photos. I have almost 2,000 photos in Photoshop elements.All the photos are in the browser and I have created folders for each holiday, wedding, graduation etc. and copied photos into them. Suddenly a lot of the photos have a red rectangle on the bottom of them with a jagged line running diagonally across them which I have now learned means that there is a missing file. I have tried to reconnect the missing file following the help program but nothing happens except the 'torch' searching for the file. I can't do anything with these photos, I can't edit them or print them of copy them to a flash drive as back up. All these photos are precious and I can still see the image in teh browser. Have I lost them?

OK I consider myself severely reprimanded!
Sorry to appear dim but all I have ever done is:
1 open photoshop elements
2. take the card out of my camera
3. put it into my computer.
4. click 'get photos'
5.save photos to my browser
6. create new folders as previously described.
Photoshop Elements toolbar has the camera to 'get photos' so that's what I did, I didn't put them anywhere else first and then copy them into there.
The photos in my browser and the copies in my folders all have the 'missing file' icon so I can't drag the folder one back into the browser it just keeps saying 'missing file'. Plus some photos I haven't copied to folders also show the same icon. Can I say goodbye to my photos or are they there somewhere but I just can't find them? I haven't deleted anything.

File icons are missing from my ML desktop. Name is there but the icon is missing. How do I fix this?

Some of my file icons are missing from the Mountain Lion desktop. The file name is there but not the icon. The file can be opened when the words are double clicked. The files show up properly in Adobe Bridge. These are Photoshop files. How do I fix the problem?

Get Info (cmd-i) on one of these files. In the "Open with" tab is PS selected?
If that's so it may be some corruption LaunchServices.These are only cache files but can get corrupted.
Launch /Utilities/Terminal and copy & paste this at the command line to rebuild LaunchServices:
(EDIT: Be sure to copy the entire line of code it is a slider)
Code:
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
Then press return. Wait until terminal returns to the command line. Quit Terminal. After that, log out and back in or restart. Let us know

Searching for missing files and damaged photo icon

I am trying to view photos that I have viewed in this program numerous times before but now when I click on the photos, I get a message that says "searching for missing files". Sometimes, the photo appears with a red icon below it that resembles a wripped photo. Does this mean my photo has been damaged by the program?

I too have been told to find them on my hard drive but still nothing comes up, I can find the picture name and then do a search, but nothing. I've tried several times and it just keeps saying seach for missing files not found. I can see my collection of pictures, but there blury and then when I try to click on them, it says searching for missing file and it gives me the file name, and then I've tried to go under my search and put that file name in and nothing comes up, I also got NO help from adobe and they want us to buy more products??? They could have warned us somehow on what happens if you move them or try and put them on disc, and that's what happen, I put some on disk or at least thought I did and then realized I didn't want to do that, so I hit the UNDUE and I guess it was so late or something, cuz I can see the pictues, just can't open them. I'm wandering if I need to have a expert see if he can get them off of Adobe, I really want the pictues I have graduation pictures on there and need them very much. Would love to have help from anybody. Please.
Thank you

Illustrator File Icon missing in Vista Business? !

Hello,
Under WinXP, the AI file type would display an orange flower icon for Illustrator files. Under Windows Vista Ultimate, the AI file icon is only a white page...
Any idea why? Can this be changed?
Thanks,
Luke

After months with the same problem, I just found a way that worked for me. I hope it is useful for other people having the same headache.
1. I downloaded this program: http://defaultprogramseditor.com/ (it doesn't need to be installed, and I checked it before I clicked on it, at Virus Total (http://www.virustotal.com/).
2. The problem I found in my case, is that both .eps and .ai were just "Illustrator Files". So I deleted both file types with "Default Programs Editor", like this:
     a. Click "File Type Settings".
     b. Click "Delete an extension".
     c. In "Search", type "ai", select it and delete it.
     d. Do the same with the "eps" extension and close the Programs Editor.
3. Open Illustrator, and the guy will cry that the Windows Registry need to be repaired; say yes (if you want, you can create a new -blank- .ai and/or a new -blank- .eps, and save them both anywhere, only to see later how they will -finally- look to the way they should usually look. ;-))
4. Open the program "Default Programs Editor" again and follow these steps to change to the beautiful, impossible, secrets, wonderful icons you should see instead that horrible white sheet:
     a. Click "File Type Settings".
     b. Click "Icon".
     c. In "Search", type "ai", select it and click "Next".
     d. If some s**t about AIRegtool comes, just ignore it, say OK or whatever lets you to click "Browse" in order to look for the right icon inside the Illustrator (.exe) file.
It might be different in your case, but in mine (Windows Vista Home Premium, CS4) the route was: C/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS4/Support Files/Contents/Windows/Illustrator.exe and click "Open".
     e. Now -finally- you can find the most wanted icons in the world. Choose the right icon (of course you will know which one it is, since you're really missing it), click "Ok", and click "Save Icon" (or you can open the menu and choose "Save to Registry" -what I did- or "Save to .reg file".
     f. Repeat the same for the rest of the icons/file types that you were missing.
P.S.: Excuse me if my English is not perfect. ;-)) Feel free to copy and post this in other forums, I know there have been thousands of people looking for a solution to this thing.
Greetings! and enjoy your icons again!! -finally.

File icons missing/slow to load in Finder

I've noticed this on both of my Macs running 10.10.2. Quite frequently, the usual icons next to files are initially missing and sometimes will eventually load.
This is true for zip files, mp3 files, and application files specific to a certain app but the issues seems random and not related to any specific file types.
Does anybody know of a fix so that the icons are immediately visible as they have been in every previous version of OS X? I'll attach an image where you can see only one .zip file icon appears, and a bunch are missing as well as a .jpg icon

I have sent application loader to Apple.
But I have taken a email.
Improper Advertising Identifier [IDFA] Usage. Your app contains the Advertising Identifier [IDFA] API but you have not indicated its usage on the Prepare for Upload page in iTunes Connect.
Though you are not required to fix the following issues, we wanted to make you aware of them:

Version Mismatch and Missing recommended icon file

I got these to error message when i upload my app. Can someone help me figure this out please
Thx
Version Mismatch - Neither CFBundleVersion ['30.3.0.5.96880'] nor CFBundleShortVersionString ['1.0.4'] in the Info.plist match the version of the app set in iTunes Connect ['1.0'].
Missing recommended icon file - The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPad of exactly '152x152' pixels, in .png format for iOS versions >= 7.0.

The first one is a specific as it can possibly be. If you don’t want to add the icon then don’t but it could cause things to look a bit poor on retina devices.
The second one can safely be ignored.

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.
my phone is a Curve 8330

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:

File icons missing in File Panel

Hi there, I have a brand new installation (demo) of Dreamweaver CS6 on a Mac and in the file panel the icons for files are not there. The icons for folders are there but where there should be an icon for a file there is empty white space. This is frustrating because it makes it harder to view the file list and work with the files.
I tried to uninstall Dreamweaver, removed the preference files and reinstall but that did nothing at all.
How can I get the file icons to show?

This is a known issue related to OSX and should be fixed with the 10.7.4 update.

File icons missing

Hi everyone -
I'm using File.icon to render filesystem icons in an
ItemRenderer - this works fine, except for when the file does not
have an associated icon - for such files Windows Explorer will
normally use an icon from shell32.dll or similar, but this icon
doesn't seem to be what AIR receives from the system, instead it
gets blank BitmapData, where all pixel values are 0. Examples are
.TMP, .EXE or any file-type where there's no strict association
with a program. Any idea why this happens and whether there's a
workaround, other than testing for blank pixels and replacing with
my own icon?

Yes I have seen this same issue. Exes and other extensions,
don't have an associated icon.

Missing PDF file icons

I installed generic Microsoft drivers for a new moniter, and all of my Acrobat file icons disappeared. Actually, all of my Adobe program icons disappeared as well, but I've been able to find some of them on my system. But while I still have the file icons for Illustrator and Photoshop (CS2), I can't seem to find how to get the PDF file icons back. I've tried changing the opening program to something else and changing back, that didn't help. I even tried to change the file type in the Explorer window and that didn't help. I can't seem to find an answer for this anywhere, so I was hoping someone here knows what to do. I'm running Acrobat 7 on WinXP SE2.

The Acrobat subscription is about $19.99 per month for Pro. You can also purchase the full product for $499. Your answer may vary depending on your OS (PC or MAC). If something just changed, you might try a repair (open Acrobat and go to Help>repair. Then do updates also.). For more help, provide info on the version of Acrobat and the OS details.

Missing PS file Icons

Recently, for no apparent reason when I went to open a psd file from Photoshop I noticed all my psd icons had been replaced by generic icons.
Raw files, jpgs, ai, etc. still retain their icons, it's only the psd files.
Everything still works normally except that the files now organize themselves differently (raw, psd and jpgs with the same name used to stay together- now the psd's go to the end of the list in the folder). Any suggestions as to what may have happened?

I'm looking in every folder where I have pictures that I took with my digital camera, worked on and saved as psd files. Yes, I used to see the little blue icons with the P. Now the psd files have generic file icons (I don't know what else to call them).
I have Windows XP and I've tried every option I can think of. The P shows up as an option I can choose but it never shows up after I choose it. Luckily everything still functions normally.
Thanks for your response. Is there any other forum that would be helpful?
