Missing links not highlighting

Hi all,
In the previous version of ID, when I navigated to a folder containing a missing link, it automatically highlighted as it was identified.
ID CC doesn't seem to do this.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
Andrew

Thanks, and... wow.... just... wow.
And, yikes.
I'm shocked this is gone. I'll submit a feature request, but honestly believe this is a bug, regardless of how Adobe might approach it.
Cannot imagine why this would have been left out if not for technical issues.
cheers
Andrew

Menu Links Not Highlighting Completely Once Authored To Disc

Hi, I haven't been able to find anything answering this question as yet - apologies if it's something that's been covered already..
I'm using CS5, and I've gone via Dynamic Link to Encore.. All has been good - and it all looks sweet on the preview, but I've found that once on disc, some of the Menu Links aren't highlighting completely..
For example, one named 'Program' - it'll highlight PROGRA, but M won't highlight.. Not all words are doing this, but there are a few, and it's not just the last letter... Little strange..
Here's what I can think of as far as project infomation goes:
* I've got the colour set on 'Default' for all of them..
* I'm burning to Dual Layer discs and working in PAL
* Menus are all made in Photoshop, imported PSD as Menu (each link is a separate layer etc)
If you've got any ideas I'd love to know what's going on here
Thanks,
Rory

Yea I mean inside Photoshop.
Like Stan said i meant to say the layers.
Here is a screen grab I found online as an example.

Missing image links NOT alerted, and not in Links panel

Don't know if this is a consequence of shifting my files and account across to a new Mac Pro, and re-configuring hard drive locations where linked image files are, but... I'm working on a document that spanned systems - finally coming to completion, and I'm writing the print PDF and found this problem.
InDesign CC 9.2.1 running on Mavericks 10.9.2 is NOT indicating missing links images in the Links panel. In fact it's not indicating the image on the page is even in the document - it doesn't appear in the Links panel, even though I see the image on the page.
I noticed this when proof checking a high res print PDF, and the image looked low-res. Odd as it shouldn't be. Went back to InDesign file to interrogate the image, and found when I clicked on it, it wasn't highlighted in the Links panel - where I have the Warnings, dpi and other columns active so I can quickly check problems. It wasn't there at all. InDesign seems to be blind to the image. When I right click the rogue images on the page I don't get the 'Graphics' section at the bottom of the drop down menu as I do with ok images. I guess because InDesign doesn't even know it's there?
Basically the image is visibly on the page, but InDesign doesn't appear to know about it..... What gives? I'm having to go through a long document now clicking on each image to check it's showing in the Links panel, then relinking every image that appears to be completely lost as far as InDesign is concerned not even knowing it's there.
I have "Reset All Warning Dialogues". Made no difference.
I worry about what other files are going to do this to me now and how much time will be wasted carefully checking validity of every image.

Thanks Peter, maybe that's it although I don't recall using that method of putting the image in the layout. It's not something I would normally do. Its some months ago mind you, and the client did send me a bunch of images to consider using so I may have just dragged their images into my early layout while scamping up the first draft, and it may be these images that have been 'lost' by I.D.
I normally create an image frame into which, using Edit - Place, select the image from a folder on the drive.
Sometimes (because the preview of images in the ID Place dialogue is so slow to build) I view images in a Finder window and select from there, drag-and-drop into a pre-sized Image frame in I.D.
I may have dragged an image direct from the Finder into Indesign not first creating an image frame for it to be placed into. But I thought I.D. would still note it as a Link asset, else why allow images of any kind into the layout if Links doesn't keep track of them for pre-press proofing use etc.
The (in the end just 4) images that were completely unknown to InDesign were all in image frames, scaled and cropped within the frame bounds. So I wasn't to know months later that I may have drag-dropped the image files uncropped etc into ID then subsequently cropped them (if indeed I had).
If you're suggesting this method of adding images quickly into I.D. won't list them in the Links panel, then I will make a conscious effort never to use that quick method again!

Search for Missing Links in This Folder option not working

I'm running InDesign CC 9.2.1, though this problem has persisted throughout the last few years and previous versions of InDesign. My operating system is OS 10.9.3. In early versions of InDesign, you could check the "Search for Missing Links in This Folder" option box when re-linking a missing link and the missing image would be highlighted in the finder window of the new image location. I did not keep track of what version of InDesign it was when this function ceased to work properly, but I would like to see if there is something I can do to make it work again.
The "Search for Missing Links in This Folder" check box is still in the finder window, and is always checked, so in theory it should highlight the missing link/s in the folder it is searching in, but it does not. The example below illustrates my point. The InDesign document that I used to illustrate this was opened up and there were four missing links. When I select the missing link/s and hit the relink button at the bottom of the links palate, I navigate to the correct location of the link but the image doesn't get selected even though the "Search for Missing Links" is checked. The missing link it should have highlighted was 431-11 frontal.psd, which clearly exists at the top of the "Front Street" folder.
This isn't a big deal when the folder contains four images. But when it has hundreds of links, it is a pain to try to find all of the links that are missing when the file name is often truncated, or it has an odd string of only numbers, etc. Just checking to see if anyone has any insight to this issue.

I think the yellow alert triangle next to each link name means that you just have to update those links, by hitting the refresh button at the bottom of the link panel once all links are selected (it's two arrows in a circle)

Not able to open a PDF file in Creative Cloud Illustrator. It shows missing links and so forth

I'm working on CS5 and saving my AI files as PDF. This is all for print, I have created the outlines, and flattened transparency between an image I had placed in on the PDF. My CreativeCLoud AI is not able to open the PDF. It shows that it is missing links. How do I fix this?

Bug report: new TLDs do not highlight as links

Typing in a URL such as http://example.website or http://example.london does not highlight it as a link. The regex you use should be more permissive for URLs; not everything is .com/.org/etc.

This got fixed, was working for a couple of months, and now has stopped working again.
Has support for new TLDs been removed deliberately, or was this just an oversight?
Oh, sorry, I didn't read the thread hierarchy title... I was talking about the Windows version not the Mac version, although for all I know the same applies there.

"Missing linked file" dialog will not dismiss

Often, when I open an Illustrator file and I get the message "Could not find the linked file <bitmap file>..." The Replace/Ignore/Cancel buttons are unclickable, and there is absolutely nothing I can do but force quit Illustrator, losing all unsaved work. The keyboard commands Return, Command-period, and Escape have no effect, either. Has anyone else experienced this, and is there any way to dismiss the dialog that I haven't thought of?
Illustrator CS6 on Mac OS 10.8.2

Has your missing linked file problem been resolved?
Try option clicking doc apps when Illustrator appears to be the forground app you cannot pull down menus and none of the tools work. In reality Illustrator looks to be the forground app, but is not, as the finder got corrupted and is somewhere in between apps, and you may for exampel be able to swithc tools in Illustrator but they have no effect.

I am very new to Macs and iPhoto so this may be an idiot's question, but I have just created my first photo book and want to buy it, but the "buy book" button is not highlighted and when I click it nothing happens. Is there some step I am missing? Thanks!

I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
Have a look at Edgar's graphical enhanced manuals, the explain very detailed how things work and why. You can buy them as iBooks from the iBook store or directly from the page:

Is it possible to switch between whether or not the previously clicked button or link remains highlighted when you go back a page?

When clicking on a link in Firefox, it selects that link and takes the user to the connected page. If the user then goes back a page, different situations happen on different (but identical) computers. On some computers, the previous clicked link stays highlighted/selected and then the Tab key goes to the next link. On other computers, going back clears the previous selected link, in which causes the Tab key to start scrolling through item from the top of this page. Is there a way to set Firefox to do this one way or the other? Is this a Windows issue and not an Firefox issue?

You can avoid that by opening the link in a new tab with a middle-click.<br />
The you can close that tab with a middle click on that tab after you are done and go back to the tab with the links.

TS1510 My iTunes song library is not synching with my iPod Shuffle.I go to the devices tab, and the snych link is gray and not highlighted. Does anybody know how I can transfer these songs onto my shuffle ?

I got a little Ipod shuffle as a stocking stuffer. I spent lots of money downloading songs to my library. My shuffle was plugged into my computer, and I thought my songs were being synched onto the shuffle. They were not. I returned to my iTunes account and went to devices, and the sync tab is not highlighted. It's gray. How can I download the songs in my library to my shuffle ?
thanks, Bob

Thanks for that information my friend. I KNOW THAT -- but that was one of only three options they require us to submit, and none match our/my issue under community help forum. I believe they should broaden that spectrum. You seem like someone who is very well-versed in Apple products, it would have been nice of you to offer some sort of help, instead of telling me, and others, that this is an iPhone forum. Happy New Year...

ICal not highlighting "Today" and Missing Holidays

Hi everyone, two questions/issues:
1) When I hit the "Today" button on iCal, today's date box is not highlighted. Shouldn't be?!
2) I have downloaded both U.S. National and Christian Holiday calendars, neither of them have Easter! (Sure it's nice to know when Childermas, but no Easter?)
Not trying proselytize here, just seems a big omission.

I noticed that as well, just yesterday as I was scheduling some things. I couldn't believe it, as Easter has always been on the calendar in the past, in the US Holidays subscription. But what really blows my mind is that you're saying the Christian holidays subscription omits it too! That's very odd...for now I've just typed it in by hand.

How to Replace Missing Links in CS5 InDesign

I received a message that there were 13 missing links in my document. How do I replace those links? I can see the locations of the missing links in the links panel but I am not sure how to get them back in the document.

Hi Richl,
In the Links panel, highlight the images you want to relink (shift + click to select a range), and click on the leftmost icon at the bottom of the panel (looks like two chain links). You'll be presented with a menu to locate your missing links. If the links in the panel show a yellow rectangle next to them, the link simply needs to be updated, and to do that you click the update icon at the bottom of the links panel.
Hope that helps.
Cheers!

CS4 InD - copy/paste missing link names?

Hi, in CS3 if I had a missing link I could simply go to the links palette, highlight and copy the name, click relink then when the dialogue box came up just paste in the file name for searching. This seems to have disappeared in CS4 and I can't see any way of copying the file name.
Anyone got any ideas without having to re-type the filename out to search? I don't want to have a massive links pallette so I can see the long file names we have, so the copy/paste solution was our best option previously.
Any help gratefully received, many thanks

Cheers Eugene, it's not quite the same as it gives the 'full path' as the name suggests.
This method thus throws in an extra part to the sequence as you have to delete the majority of the path, which is a shame - it just sort of worked and made sense before.
