Missing Images for Particle Emitters

A few weeks ago I moved my Motion Library to my external hardrive to clear up some space. Recently I started a new Motion project and when I opened it obviously all of the Library was was missing because it was now on my external drive.
When I moved the Library back into the Library>Application Support>Motion>Library folder everything began to work again fine, except that the particle emitters that use images from the "content" folder.
The content folder within motion is populated so it recognizes the folder, and its contents can be used. Its just when using a particle emitter that I get the "failed to import" error and it specifies the images from the content folder.
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks everyone.

I finally solved the problem yesterday, and now that I've fixed it I thought I should post the fix.
Basically the problem is that Motion apparently can't be installed on a case sensitive file system at this point. I'll put more detailed information below.
Because I'm new to Macs, I wasn't expecting some of the extensions to be hidden, including the .localized part of the path, so it wasn't until I used Get Info on the specific images that I saw the actual full path and file names.
Finally I realized that the only real difference between the actual files and what Motion was looking for was the case of the file names, and then I remembered that my external hard drive was formatted with a case sensitive file system (Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) to be precise).
Now that I've backed the partition up, formatted it and restored the contents, everything appears to be working fine. I hope this saves time for anyone else who runs into this problem in the future, and I hope that something about this is added to the main Motion support section.

Missing thumbnail images for AVCHD files

I never had this problem before.
In the past I would import AVCHD (*.mt2s) video files to the oganizer using Premiere Elements 7.
Then I would open Photoshop Elements 7 and the video files I just imported in Premiere Elements 7 would display their thumbnails just fine.
NOW, these thumbnails do not display.
AVCHD files that I had previously imported still display their thumbnail, but any NEW AVCHD files do not display their thumbnail images; it just displays a default video thubmbnail graphic.
Furthermore, if I select "Update thumbnail" from the context menu of a previously imported AVCHD file with a thumbnail, then the thumbnail image goes away and siaplays the default graphic.
(PLEASE NOTE: when I click the default thumbnail image, it opens the video previewer successfully. So the answer is not that the video file is missing and therefore needs to be reconnected to regenerate the thumbnail image. So else is wrong here.)
How can I get the thumbnail feature to work properly? It works fine in Premiere Elements; the thumbnails images for both new and old imported files display just fine in that program, which is what I used to be able to see in Photoshop Elements. Why is PSE7 not displaying these video thumbnail images?

I have solved this issue myself a month or two ago and forgot to report my findings.
I alspo have a Canon HD camcorder so this was a major issue for me.
The way to resolve this issue (at least in my case) was to download a codec pack like k-lite. Do a google search for the codec pack or follow this link:
http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
When I installed the codec pack, I think I had to make sure M2TS files were selected within the installation wizard so just be aware of that.
Another way to resolve this issue is to upgrade to Windows 7. After I upgraded to Windows 7, I did not have to re-install the codec. I think Windows 7 has native support for AVCHD files.
I hope this helps. If it does, please report here if you encounter anything of note worthy since the details of this process are no longer fresh on my mind.

Mobile app missing images only after packaging for App Store?

This is general, but I was wondering if anyone else has had this problems, as it's happened to 2 different apps I recently posted to the app store.
Basically, the apps worked in the simulators fine, I intalled and tested on 10 different iphones, and it works fine. When I packaged up the app, and downloaded from the app store after approval there were various missing images. For example, 3 images on a page with 6 png would be missing. They weren't loaded any differently.
So I rechecked the app in flex simulators, worked fine, installed on phones, worked fine. I could not replicate problem anywhere. I randomly just resaved out a few images and that 'appears' to have worked. So when my next app was exhibiting the exact same behaviour, i 'resaved' out the broken images and a few were fixed, but a few are still broken.
This is just so strange, since I can't replicate the issue anywhere except after downloading from the app store.
Anyone else having similar issues?
thanks

Make sure your paths are *NIX compatible. Things like incorrect case or spaces in the file name will work just fine in the emulator, but fail on the device.
Are you saying the images work when installed on the device using a provisioning profile, but that very same app doesn't work when downloaded from the app store? If that's the case, the problem is probably in your build settings (IE. not including all the asset files, etc.)

Multiple calls for missing images

We were experiencing a strange "double adding" of basket items in FF4 on a store that uses a GET method URL. Having traced exactly what was happening using Fiddler web debugging proxy, it seems that if a page loads with missing images, FF4 is making an additional second "hidden" call to the original URL. We therefore get multiple items added to the basket if there is a broken image on the basket page when it loads. This doesn't happen in FF3 or any other browser we've used.

Some of the wayward images may be in one of the other catalogues or a download to the external hard drive from the online backup (done last year).
Images are never stored in the catalog.
How can I merge the several catalogues, and should I?
There is no tool available to merge catalogs. The best you can do is to write the metadata to the files (File->Write Tags...) in each catalog, and then import all photos into a new catalog. In this process, you will lose albums and version sets and stacks and a few other things that I can't remember at this time. So, should you do this? If the drawbacks of the merge process don't make you say "Stop", then YES you should do this. I see no benefit, and huge amounts of confusion, caused by multiple catalogs, made even worse by the fact that they are overlapping.
How do I serch the the file in the external hard drive? I.e., how do I designate this file in the "browse" dialogue box for where to reconnect? I can navigate to it, but then what?
In PSE, you can find the name of the file, and this is the name you would use to search your hard disks using your operating system. Exactly how you do a search depends on your operating system, which you haven't mentioned.

Apple Support feedback on Missing Image - might be helpful for others

Hi Roger
Here is my last correspondence with you yesterday:
Me:
Hi Roger can you check my feed for error also.
I submitted my podcast (Off The Post Podcast) 6 weeks ago. I've been pretty patient but still no artwork in the store.
RSS FEED:
http://toepoke.hipcast.com/rss/offthe_postpodcast.xml
Hipcast is my host.
You:
you have the image correctly referenced in your feeds, so there isn't really anything more you can do. A number of people have complained recently that their images are not appearing. It always takes some days for it to appear, but things do seem worse at the moment.
I'm afraid all you can do is wait unless you would like to try contacting iTune Support (though I have to say I don't expect you will get much help: go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'. You will see a link to 'Express Lane', which will guide you eventually to some contact options.
Heres the feedback I managed to squeeze out of Apple. Can you corroborate it and if so - in laymans terms - how can I fix it? How do I get access to the massive list of my feed details. At the moment - i can only find my Rss.
Apple:
Although this is not included under the iTunes Store billing title, this is one of my personal interests so I have researched your RSS feed in depth for you. I was unable to locate the following tag:
<itunes:image href="___" />
And while looking into your feed, it doesn't look like our example feed, which may be a result of your podcast host (hipcast.com), if they produce the feed for you. You may need to contact them regarding this as well.
Many thanks for the speedy responses on this frustrating issue for many, all appreciated here
Ben

Firstly, there are two separate issues here, so let's not get them confused. The missing image is a problem at the itunes Store end: the feed is present and correct in your tag. You're not the only person with this problem - it seems pretty widespread. I'm sorry I can't offer any further advice, but there isn't anything you can do, and I'm sorry that iTunes Support is not being helpful.
If you want to move your feed to Feedburner, that's fine - Feedburner provides statistics, which iTunes doesn't - but it won't make any difference to the image problem: indeed it will make matters worse since if there is a backlog queue you will go to the back of it.
If you want to move the feed to Feedburner you need to follow the procedure detailed here:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#changing
(If you can't easily do the 301 redirect bit, don't worry about it, it's really only for programs other than iTunes - just add the 'itunes:new-feed-url' tag as described). You will not lose subscribers by doing this: make sure to leave the old feed up for at least two weeks - the Store will update quite quickly but this is for the benefit of subscribers. And double-check you have typed the new URL correctly in the tag - if you make a typo you won't be able to retrieve the situation.
Don't remove and resubmit. You will lose your subscribers, and you will make a lot of problems for yourself. Don't do it.

Particle Emitters and other presets missing!

In Motion 5, the Particle Emitters, Replicators, Shapes, Gradients, and Shape Styles folders are empty! They only became empty yesterday, and I didn't do anything that would effect them(that I know of). What should I do?

That is strange. I assume you mean from the tool bar access icons and not the Library or are they missing there as well? I would trash my Motion prefferences in your user library as a first step. If that doesn't work try a new user. Just create a new admin user and see if they are there then.

HT1423 Could someone please fix the broken images for iMac 27 Oct 2013 instructions? I miss the webmaster's email on the bottom of the page...

I know that's so 90s, but all the images for iMac 27 Mid 2013 are broken. Could someone please look into that?
Thanks.

I can see that too. I am referring to <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423?viewlocale=en_US#1>. This is the first link for iMac 27".
Your screenshot refers to <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423?viewlocale=en_US#4>.
This is what I see. I am still confident that this is a problem with the image link:

Since applying Feb 2013 Sharepoint 2010 CUs - Critical event log entries for Blob cache and missing images

Hi,
Since applying the February 2013 SharePoint 2010 updates, we are getting lots of entries in our event logs along the following:
Content Management Publishing Cache
5538 Critical
An error occurred in the blob cache. The exception message was 'The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)’
In pretty much all of these cases the image/ file in question that is reported in the ULS logs as missing is not actually in the collaboration site, master page / html etc so the fix needs to go back to the site owner to make the correction to avoid
the 404 (if they make it!). This has only started happening, I believe since feb 2013 sp2010 cumulative updates updates
I didn’t see this mentioned as a change / in the Fix list of the February updates. i.e. it flags up a critical error in our event logs. So with a lot of sites and a lot of missing images your event log can quickly fill up.
Obviously you can suppress them in the monitoring -> web content management ->publishing cache = none & none which is not ideal.
So my question is... are others seeing this and was a change made by Microsoft to flag a 404 missing image / file up a critical error in event log when blob cache is enabled?
If i log this with MS they will just say, you need to fix it up the missing files in the site but would be nice to know this had changed prior! I also deleted and recreated the blob cache and this made no diffference
thanks
Brad

I'm facing the same error on our SharePoint 2013 farm. We are on Aug 2013 CU and if the Dec CU (which is supposed to be the latest) doesn't solve it then what else could be done.
Some users started getting the message "Server is busy now try again later" with a corelation id. I looked up ULS with that corelation id and found these two errors in addition to hundreds of "Micro Trace Tags (none)" and "forced
due to logging gap":
"GetFileFromUrl: FileNotFoundException when attempting get file Url /favicon.ico The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)"
"Error in blob cache. System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)"
"Unable to cache URL /FAVICON.ICO. File was not found"
Looks like this is a bug and MS hasn't fixed it in Dec CU..

HTAccess - set default image for missing image

Hi Folks,
I have a folder full of images and when en images is called form that directory and not found I would like the default image to show up.
I have added an HTAccess file with this content:
ErrorDocument 404 default.jpg
And added a default.jpg image in the directory.
I have used this approach successfully on a few other sites but in this instance when I open a page with a missing photo I still get the standard ugly missing image icon. However, if I open that image in a new tab I get a page with the text 'default.jpg' on it.
Anyone got an idea how I can fix it?
Cheers
Dave

If I remember well, in the Report Attributes, you should select the linked column. At the link image, there are 2 edit images(the default is the big one), but there is one more image which is smaller.
Hope it helps.

Particle Emitters as well as other presets are EMPTY!

I have already went to preferences and chose the correct folder for Motion to access my particle emitters. under my HD partition there's a Final Cut Studio Folder, A Motion Folder and a Library folder which has all these presets. However Motion's Library tab/menu FAILS to read them. I have to search for the on the spotlight which is a real pain and not very practical.
Can someone please tell me what I'm missing? Thank you!

Hm? Is this the recent issue with project presets missing? I didn't know that the particle emitters might go missing to.
Try and repair permissions on your drive first. If that's a no-go try this :

Missing Name for TemplateBeginEditable

Is this something I should be worried about? i don't see any issue as the missing object also not doing much IO.
however you may get the detail from v$segment_statistics

Top accessed table
Thanks for the answer, but for what should I query?
It doesn't show me a segment name, only the text ** MISSING ** which clearly isn't one of my segments.
I'm not concerned about the I/O it generates, I'm concerned about the fact that there is no segment name in the report.
Could this be caused by tables/indexes that were created during the snapshot and were no longer available when the report was generated?

Missing drivers for Windows 7 Professional with BootCamp.

I have a brand new MB Pro with 13" Retina, late 2013, 250 GB SS-disk, 8 GB RAM.
I need a partition with Windows 7 Professional, and I have an ISO with Norwegian Windows 7, service pack 1.
I run the BootCamp assistant to partition my HDD and to generate the USB-disk with Windows and the necessary drivers.
When i try to install Windows the Windows installer asks for a driver for the DVD-drive. I get a message that it cannot find a driver file and tells me to provide one. There is no DVD so that is correct. There is no way I can skip this part, and I must stop the intallation. I have not been able to trace down any dummy-drivers.
I have also tried to do this procedure with a USB-Superdrive attatched, but that did not help.

I am sorry, but this does not help me. I have tried. Or should I unpack all files to the top-level? I kept the folder structure.
I have downloaded the contents and it looks just like my Windows installation USB-disk that Boot Camp generates.
My problem is that when I am in the process of installing Windows, the installer stops because it does not find a driver for the CD/DVD-drive. I have chosen Language, and the next thing that happens is an error message. I can not complete the installation.
The error-message is something like this:
"Missing driver for CD/DVD station. ...
If the Windows installation medium is in the CD/DVD-station you may safely remove it before this step."
I have used the same iso-image to install a virtual machine using Virtual Box, so I think the image is OK. I need a dual-boot to avoid timing loss.

Missing images in Word Document

I am having a problem with some missing images when I
generate a Word document from RoboHelp HTML. I have seen similar
problems in these forums and have tried the solutions without
success. I have Word 2002 SP3. I have images in my document that
have conditional tags applied to them. Up until now, I have not had
any trouble with them generating in Word. I added some more images
(using RH to import them into my doc) and I set up the conditional
tags to print those and not the others. In some cases, the images
are generated and in others they are not. There is no X in its
place just a blank line. I have tried erasing the .CPD file and
re-generating. I have tried removing and re-inserting the image.
Also, if I generate the html web help, the images are all there. No
problem. I have tried embedding the images and using links and get
the same result. I have not tried to just generate the PDF because
I need to tweak the document in Word first before generating the
PDF to make everything look good.
I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Robohelp. That didn't
help either. The image properties all have none (not left or
right). I am running out of ideas to solve this problem. Everything
worked great before so I can't figure out what could possibly be
wrong especially since the webhelp is fine. I also tried moving the
project to my C drive. No change either. The project usually
resides on a network drive.
If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it since I have a
document to print for a customer ASAP! Thank you in advance.

I have been suffering with this problem of missing graphics for some time, even with RoboHelp 8. However, it now seems that I have found the answer and just in case anyone else is still having this problem I thought I would share what worked for me.
After doing some Google searching I found the web site: http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_graphics.htm where the following solution was offered for problems with Mail Merge graphics:
"If you find that on merging to a new document the resulting paths have been changed to something like: {INCLUDEPICTURE"../,./../program%20files/My Program/ProductPictures/ImageName.jpg"\*MERGEFORMATINET} and the merge does not work correctly:-
(In Word 2003) Select Tools > Options > General > Web Options and uncheck "Update links on save""
Whatever this has to do with anything I do not know, but it magically fixed my problem and all images are now appearing in the RoboHelp Word output.
Cheers,
Chris

The Case of the Missing Image

Go to this link:
http://fyiboerne.info/wcid.html
This page is a very simple HTML page which displays two
things: a "< GO BACK" link, which is visible and working
properly, and one jpg image (file name: wcid#2.jpg) which is not
visible.
I would love to know what is going on here.
Both the html page, and the lone image are in place on the
remote server; however, when I test the page on my testing server
it comes up blank as it does from the browser when online. I've
tried pop-up windows, a download to a pdf version of the .jpg....IT
IS ALWAYS BLANK. Moreover, I have purged the entire site and put it
back...dumped the html file and completely rebuilt it...tried
opening the pdf file and jpg file in Photoshop and Acrobat, where
the image always comes up. In Photoshop, I flattened the layers.
The image shows up in Dreamweaver, but fails to appear in a
preview (using Firefox and Safari), and fails to appear on the
Internet.
I included the source code for this link in the event anyone
can see a problem. The first source code appears on the page which
links to the page in question. The second source code is the code
from the page with the missing image.
THANKS!
HELP!

Removing the "#" character from the file name fixed the
problem. Thanks!

I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

I imported 635 images into an iPhoto album so that I can share them via a photo-stream. However, iPhoto says there are only 600. When I try to add the missing images it says they are already there. Why can i not see these images in iPhoto?

Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
1. Right click images you want to share.
2. Select Export version.
3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
See how you go.
