Missing file - warning msg ?

When I open my ibooks author file I get a missing file warning.
The warning window show the missing file name but no other information.
How can I find the page where this file is missing and fix the issue?
thanks in advance
Rohit

I found a way to figure this out by accident ... The missing picture file shows up as a "broken giff" similer to web pages. You just have to go thru the entire file and find the broken giff. It would be better if the error msg shows a page number.

HT203477 Missing file warning with an import of Red footage.

I updatd a project and got seveal missing file warnings. Two clips seem to be very much stuck in this mode. I have trashed the files out of the project and off the drive and tried several time to reload them to no avial... Does anyone have any idea how to get past this. Both files show up on the drive with the video in tack when I click on the files so I am a bit stumped as to what to do next.

So arter chewing my arms off forever I got lucky and found the sollution. After trashing the clips out of FCPX and off the drive and going into the finder and trashing the trash. You have to go into the tranzcoded media on the drive and trash those files. I did this with FCPX open and the files opened up with the video. I then had to redo the proxy and HQ media. One would think that when you trash out a file in FCPX that it would remove the corrosponding files to avoid this issue. Argggg I hope this helps someone else in the future....

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.

'Missing file' warning.

Hello Keynote Gurus:
I have just recently installed Keynote '08 (version 4.0.2), and when I apply one of my themes, I get the following Document Warnings:

What does it mean and what can I do about it?

Some of the theme producers visit these discussions sometimes. They may have better insight than I on how to solve this problem.

Remove missing file warning

I have some photos I want to edit - sequence, reject, sort etc - but not develop. The full catalog is on my desktop at the studio. I'm travelling right now with my laptop and have exported a catalog with those images to work on. Of course, when I open them in loupe view, the warning comes up 'The file named 'x' is offline or missing'. I find this very distracting though. Other than working in dimmed mode by hitting L twice, is there a way to remove the warning dialog?

Jonathan,
Unfortunately, this banner was introduced with LR3, in LR2 it was only present in Develop. The only workaround I know of is to use Survey View in Library.

Bug fix for missing files error msg

from what i can tell there is still no bug fix for this issue that way too many people are getting.
why has nobody from Apple posted on this board discussing their plans for this issue?
why is this issue not noted on the tech support home page?
my bet is 95% of the people who are also getting this error don't use this message board and therefore are really clueless...

*from what i can tell there is still no bug fix for this issue that way too many people are getting.*
WHat bug/eror are you talingk about?
*why has nobody from Apple posted on this board discussing their plans for this issue?*
This is a user-to-user forum.
Besides, what good would it do if Apple posted, "we are working on it"?
Most likely, any problems with iTunes are being looked at.
why is this issue not noted on the tech support home page?
What issue? Maybe it's not a big enough problem to make a big deal out of.
my bet is 95% of the people who are also getting this error don't use this message board
If that's the case, why should Apple post something?

Missing files using the same library on two different macs and other minor problems

Hi everybody,
I'm working on a long documentary and I'm new to FCPX (coming from Avid NC and Edius)...I have and external HD where I stored all the media I'm working with (about 1/2T - 1000 clips)...The library (about 100gb) is stored on the internal drive of my iMac and into the iCloud.
Yesterday, I received my new MacBook and today I tried to work on it. I followed this steps: I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with, I put it on the same folder (movies) it was stored on my iMac and I connected my external HD with all the media...Results? All the clips where gone and the red missing file warning was all over the place.
FIRST QUESTION: How can I work on both computer overcoming this missing files problem? I know I should have put the library on the same external drive but It was a move aiming to
SUB QUESTION 1:
I went back to my iMac and everything worked fine except for a warning about one of my events (the exclamation point) as you can see from this pic:
I tried to relink the file...but no files to be linked popped up in the relink file window....HOW CAN I KNOW what's wrong in that event in order to fix it?
SUB QUESTION 2:
I checked the Library info and - as you can see in the pic below - there are 43mb of media in my internal HD...is this maybe the problem preventing me from working on different macs? I tried to consolidate everything to the external HD but still the 43mb thing persist in being on the internal HD. How can I find where exactly it is located? How can I move it to the external HD given that the consolidate option isn't working?
Thank you in advance for your help
Nico

1) Don't know why this is happening. It may have something to do with
I downloaded from iCloud the same library I was working with
I'm not clear what procedure you're using here. Using a cloud for storage might change some file tags. Generally users I think keep the library on the same drive as the media, keeping the library backups on the system. There is no real benefit in keeping the media in a separate location. Often users will keep the library in the same folder as the media. It makes backing up using tools like Carbon Copy Cloner very efficient.
1a) This can be difficult to find as there sometimes is no obvious indicator. It might be a missing element in a compound clip, a missing or altered layer in a graphics file, a missing font, a missing effect. These will show up inside the item involved, but may not be apparent in the browser. A missing transition for instance will not be seen until you skim over the project or try to export it.
2) The 43 MB is a small amount of optimized media. This never prevents relinking. The library is always looking for original media, or proxy media if you're in proxy playback. It never looks for optimized media. If it has it, it uses it, if it doesn't, it uses the original media. If you are using original/optimized playback, you must have the original files. The optimized files are not enough.

Missing sidecar - remove missing file status

I have raw files that had metadata written to XMP sidecar files, the XMP are now missing, and I don't want to have LR create new sidecar files. The files show up as missing in the catalog. How can I get rid of the missing status and the little "metadata status warning" icons without having to write new sidecar files? If I can't that's pretty insidious and I would call it a bug.
Thanks

Writing to xmp and then deleting the xmp is how I got to this stage. They show up in the Missing Files folder in the library tab of the library module. If I hover over the little question mark icon it says sidecar file is missing. If I click on the question mark it writes the metadata to xmp, even if "auto write changes to xmp" is unchecked in the catalog settings>metadata preferences.
But there's no way to delist them from missing files without creating a new xmp, as far as I can tell. You're basically stuck with "missing files" warning forever unless you create new xmps.
It's pretty annoying. I'd call it a bug. Essentially it's probably just a scenario that wasn't considered or accounted for in development. Creating missing file folder on demand - I like that.
Thanks for your input, let me know if you come up with anything

Windows 7 Compatability with Labview 8.0 and missing files while interfacing the FPGA with LV

I am trying to use an FPGA (PCI-7830R) with Labview 8.0. The computer has Windows 7 OS. I installed LV 8.0 in the proper order with the FPGA Module and labview is able to see the FPGA when I open a .lvproj (the FPGA is in the tree) however there is a warning symbol next to the FPGA selection and when I try to open a .vi file that is used on the other stations in my lab (it works on all the other stations), labview is unable to find a whole bunch of files. There are some pictures.
Missing File (there are a bunch more but this is the fist one).

According to this LabVIEW Compatibility LabVIEW 8.0 is NOT compatible with Windows 7

Can anyone help me...Why Can't I open a compound clips containing missing files?

I Have been using FCPX for only a short time and I have a few unfinished projects on the go. But after tidying up an reorganising my hard drives putting FCPx Projects and Events on an external drive. I find some of my projects with compound clips show this horrid warning icon for "missing files". I am want to relink the missing clips but FCPX will not allow me to open the compound clips so I could see what are the missing ones... so, can anyone help find a way to re-link or recover those missing files.

File browser? You mean the compound clip is in the project but not in the event? What version of the software are you using?
Select the compound clip and use Clip>Reference New Parent Clip. Does that work? Try relinking the project files.

Compressor 4.1 ! Missing File

Hi all. So I have a project finished in FCPX - I have no errors or missing file messages. When I send it to Compressor, the opening logo and ending logo show up but the entire video between them is not. I am getting the ! Missing File red screen.
I have tried uninstalling Compressor 4.1 using AppCleaner and re-installing. Same result.
Any ideas??

I think I've figured it out. When I imported, I kept the original clip on an external hard drive and had FCPX import and create a proxy but not copy the original media.
When I go to export, Compressor is looking for the original media which I didn't have connected. Connected it and everything looks great.
That was my mistake but it would help if FCPX warned me like 10.0 versions did that linked files are missing. At least I don't see any warnings.
