Missing or Off Line photos - user problem

Help!! I'm fairly new with lightroom 3 maybe had it for a year and just up graded to lightroom 4 because I got a new camera and I continue having some of my photos missing or offline. I did call the support line with abobe and they did find most of them. Some how I had move them without realizing
what I did. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong when downloading my pictures from my camera card to lightroom? Any websites that I can go to for help on this and for help locating them on my computer? Thanks

The reason photos show up as missing in LR is that you move or rename or delete photos (or the folders that contain them) outside of Lightroom. Another reason that photos can become missing (in Windows) is that the letter of the external drive changes, something Windows will do sometimes.
One thought about finding these photos is to look up the name of the photo in LR (for example, DSC_0783.nef), then have your operating system search all hard drives for this photo.

Images missing or off-line

when i want to go to edit in cs3 or to develop module, i get the error message that images are missing or off-line, despite the fact that the images are still on my desktop as well as backed up on the external hard drive(which is turned on). help. also, is there any way to reconvert dng images back to raw or tiffs?

If the image in grid view has a ? icon in the upper right then LR does not know where the source file is. Click on that icon and tell it where to fine the file. If all your images where moved outside LR then LR would lose track. You could also try to synchronize the folder if they are all in the same relative structure.
Unless you stored the original RAW file in the DNG there is no way to get back to the original RAW. However, with very few exceptions all of the original RAW information is in the DNG file so there's no need to convert back.

Files missing or off line

I reciently downloaded dng files to a removable harddrive.
I can see them in Lightroom (library)but get a message that they are off line or missing when I open the develope module.
I can see them on the hard drive and when I attempt to import them LR says they are already there? I also noticed that about 300 of the dng files went to the harddrive without the jpg thumbnail.

The photos have either been moved, renamed or deleted outside of Lightroom. If they have been moved outside of Lightroom (or if the drive letter has changed, which can happen on Windows computers), then you reconnect them via http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_find_folder/find-folder.htm
By the way, re-importing photos is almost never a good thing to do. It is almost always a bad thing to do. I would advise you to get this idea out of your mind.

Printing or Editing Off-Line Images

Hi,
I am looking for the best way for editing or printing images that have been previously moved/archived to CDs/DVDs when using PSE 3/4 Organizer. As I understand it once you bring back an image to edit it, the archived version is brought back online., and the one on the CD is basically removed from the catalog. Is this correct?
How does all this work if you are dealing with Version Sets, all of which have been previously archived to CDs?
What if you only want to bring an archived image to print it? In this case, is the high resolution image just temporarily loaded to make the print? I vaguely remember that the answer to this is yes, but I am not positive.
And what if you wanted to make a slide show but did not want to start with the resolution of your proxies?
I do know that I can go and find the answers to each one of these questions myself, but I am hoping to save a little time and possibly screwing up somewhere by asking the question before trying things out. I am also interested on how others are doing the above.
TIA
Don S.

Barb,
Thanks so much for the simple solution. I have tried it and it seems to do just what I want. Let me list the steps to make sure I did what you said.
1. From the Organize mode, I select the off-line photo
2. Click on Go to Standard Edit. I get the message re. picture is no considered on-line.
3. After the image is oopened in the Editor, I go back to the Organizer, click on the Undo arrow. The gold CD icon on the picture, which was not there now comes back, but the red strip with the lock is still over the photo.
4. I go back to the Editer, make my changes and then use Save As with a new name.
5. I close the photo in the Editor, and automatically am taken back to the Organizer, where there is no red stripe, but now two photos in the Photo Bin, the one off-line with the CD icon in the top left corner, and the edited version right next to it that is on-line.
To be honest, I only did Steps 1-3. I am presuming that Steps 4-5 would be as stated. Is this how the whole process works?
PS I did confirm that when you bring an off-line image back in to print it, it is only brought back temporarily and is still considered an off-line image after being printed.
Again, thanks for your initial answer Barb. I now need to see how Version Sets affect the above, if at all.

"Always Available off line" menu item not available for user on computer where another does see it. This is on Active Directory Computer

I have a lap top that I want to add files via Always available off line.
When I logon and right click on a folder share I can see the menu item all was available offline. When the user logs on this option is not available. I have turned the feature on and off, rebooted, I have deleted the cache folder but I cannot
see how to get this menu item to show up. It's odd that it shows up for one user but not another on the same computer. I have searched the web and tried the above things and others but cannot seem to resolve this problem. It seems pretty
common and their. This computer is on a domain.
thanks.

Hi,
So as we edited the group policy settings in the default domain policy, the menu item is now available?
And as we are in a domain environment and the settings is configured under the default domain policy, how the domain users behave different from each other? Which someone could see and the other not？
Could we please generate a
GPO report to take a check?
And regarding group policy issue, it is recommended to seek help in the group policy forum, experts there may share some insights:

I seem to have multiple problems related or unrelated. I cannot use Apple Mail for blueyonder and mostly for gmail as both show that the server is off line. My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with pop up windows on nearly every command

Firstly I am unable to use Apple mail except for hotmail, for blueyonder, gmail or Sky as the server shows as (off line) and I have no idea how to get them on line even though I tell them to go there.
My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with advertising windows virtually on ever command I make, one seems to be impossible to unsubscribe from.
When I am in an email with a web link the web link doesn't work and I get a window saying that I must have a pop up blocker, but if I switch it off it is no different, what does work is switching the "enable Java script off", then when I get to the web site I can't use it until I switch the java script back on.
I can't do a screen shot either full or partial, when I try it changes the web site that is on screen to another.
So what have I done that might have caused problems, downloading Yosemite seemed to be the start of the problems. Since then I have started to install Mackeeper, after checking with a family members who should know, that MacPaw is safe. I decided that I didn't want to pay the subscription, so went through the uninstall instructions but it comes up as a pop up with considerable regularity.
My stress levels have gone through the roof with pop ups happening so regularly and not being able to use Apple mail.o can anyone help please?

All photos appearing off-line

All photos in in my Lightroom 5, appearing off-line with question mark next to all folders. I have over 45,000 photos. How can I get everything to show up again. First time this has ever happened.

In the many years I have been doing this, I have seen examples where people accidentally do something, and you might want to check your operating system and make sure your folder names, file names and drive name/letters haven't been accidentally changed. And also what Jim Wilde said.

Version 10.1.3 misses printing some lines. Is anyone else having this problem?

Using Adobe Reader X version 10.1.3 it misses printing some lines but prints perfectly with version 8.1.2. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

I always match the entire project to the footage so this problem doesn't happen.
I have an after effects project dynamically linked to the project. I think that may be causing the problem somehow, although that is also a 1440 project.
Again, I had no problems before. I've done 10+ projects for this client with the same settings and am only now having problems.
I never recommend shooting in 1440, but that is what they wanted for whatever reason. Always 1920x1080p or 1280x720p.

Random photos dropping off line

While working on a sequence, some of the photos dropped off line. Some times I can see the thumbnail on the time line, if I just touch the red "off line" clip. However, if I scroll down the time line (lets just say at 3:00 minutes), then go back to the original thumbnail photo (lets say at 1:30), it goes red again.
None of my photos were moved, and are intact at their same location. Even in "reveal in finder," shows them in the same location.
Why is this happening, and will this effect my final project when I export to a Quicktime movie?

I "right clicked" on the clip, then chose "reveal in finder." Obviously that doesn't reconnect the path.
That's right, this option only tells you where the file is located.
At the bottom of that list is Reconnect Media. You use the options to navigate to the original media then reconnect.
In the cascading menu: File>Reconnect Media is another way to do the same job.

There were no error codes. I went to the download site and started to download. Popup window appeared and then when I clicked on save, the window disappeared, but no download appeared in the download folder.
many thanks.
Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

My iPad 2 doesn't work right since I down loaded ios8. It's slow and falls off line. Has anyone else had these problems?

MY iPad 2 is slow and falls off line since I down loaded ios8. Has anyone else had these problem? Is Apple going to do any thing about it? I feel like I need to buy a new iPad.

Hi ..
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If nothing above has helped, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Generate/Reconcile problem: two types of Off-line Tables?

Hi,
I have problem with Generate/Reconcile objects from Off-line Tables.
I have DB tables primarily defined as Off-line DB tables (creation and all changes I do with Off-line DB Tables). Sequentially I force changes to DB with option "Generate/Reconcile". So long as I created Off-line tables directly in JDeveloper, all was great.
Now, I want to simplify proces of creation off-line tables: I generate myself sql simple sql script (on the basis java-beans), apply to DB and after it import DB tables from DB to Off-line tables. Next I want to work as sooner, i.e. make fine changes on Off-line tables and "Generate/Reconcile" to DB.
But this second approach dosn't work. Off-line tables imported from DB shows in Table Information warning "This table has been imported from/or generated to a database. Changigng the Temporary Table property will affect your ability to reconcile it with that database". But what is important: Generate/Reconcile such Off-line table to DB faces alltimes to DROP table and CREATE table!!!!! So this is fully useless.
When I opex Off-line tables xml, other structure is for Off-line tables created in JDeveloper and imported from DB.
So how resolve this problem? How can I "transform" Off-line table imported from DB to Off-lina table created directly in JDeveloper?
Notice 1: I have JDeveloper 10.1.3.2.0
Notice 2: When imported from DB, I imported table to another schema and another table-name, eg. SCHEMA1.NEW_TABLENAME to SCHEMA2.TABLENAME.

Icon for on-line/off-line is missing

T-Bird sometimes falls to off-line mode and I never know it until I try to send a message, tells me I'm in off-line mode and would I like to go back online. When this happen THE ICON SHOWING ITS OFF-LINE IS MISSING. At one time it was in the L/R corner. How do I get it back?

From the menu bar select View-Toolbars and make sure the Status Bar is turned on.
No menu bar? Press the alt key.

Canon wireless printer printer off line problem

I have a Canon 620 printer. It works fine via usb cable, but when I try printing wireless it comes up that the printer is currently off line. I have good wi-fi to the printer and it says the printer is ready. It knows the printer is there so why won't it print? Thanks for any help you can give me.

I think once you reserve the IP address for your printer, you don't have to set static IP on your printer. But not the other way around. Because if by accident when a post man find two houses with identical address, it'll be tough to deliver the mail.
