New files don't show

Hello,
I'm hoping someone can help me.
I've just had my macbook in for repairs, and they told me the motherboard needed replacing etc.
Anyway, I got it back today and everything seems fine except one small thing.
When I download a new file to my desktop or anywhere else for that matter it doesn't show up. If I search for it in spotlight it will find the files where they should be, or if I try to open the file through a prog. it can also see it, but that is the only way. I have also gone into the info and clicked "show extension" and that seems to work, but only for that individual file and not all of the invisible files as a whole.
Any idea what's happening and how I can fix it so that new files I add to my machine show up?
Many Thanks,
Jenn

Lightroom cc updated new features don't show up such as face recognition

I need help! Lightroom cc updated new features don't show up such as face recognition. What should I do?
Thanks,

Have you installed the Lightroom CC program from the creative cloud desktop manager? If you are certain you are running Lightroom CC then face recognition will be on the toolbar in the library module. If you don't see the toolbar then press the letter T.

New Formulas don't show under Select Expert --Record

Hello,
Some how my CR 2008 don't show new formulas in my report when I go in Select Expert-Record, all the formulas show under Field Explorer?? the odd part is that old formulas still showing only new ones don't show is a setup that I'm missing????

The old formulas most likely have the evaluation time function WhileReadingRecords or BeforeReadingRecords referenced in them.
Try adding WhileReadingRecords to your new formulas (If CR can process those formulas at that time) and you should be able to see them in the Record Select Expert.

FLV file don't show on iPhones, iPads, etc.

I'm on a iMac with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 processor running 10.6.8. I build websites using Dreamweaver CS4 and all my media files are FLV files. I've noticed that none of the media shows on a iPhone, iPad, etc. Is there a media file format that I can use that works for browsers and will show on iPhones, iPod, etc.? I also noticed that SWF file don't show either. Any direction would be helpful.

Those are Flash content types. Flash doesn't exist on iOS, and won't exist on any future mobile platforms, according to Adobe.

Hi were you able to resolve yours?
I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
Perform a hard reboot
Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

New Photos Don't Show On My Apple TV -- Is There a limit? An "Update" button? ...?

I have my Apple TV 2nd gen set so that after two minutes is shows photos from my computer as screensaver.
I have an album in iPhoto where I drag the photos I want and I've told the Apple TV to pick up those photos. Has always worked fine.
Recently I added some pictures to that album but they don't show on the Apple TV -- just the previous photos are on display. Is there a limit? There are 94 photos in that album. Have I forgotten some sort of "update" button? ...
All the settings both on the Apple TV and my iTunes look fine and I recently ran whatever update Apple wanted me to (I had this photo hiccup both before and after that upgrade so that ain't it).
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Possible iTunes issue:
Try the following after adding photos.
Go to file
Then Home Sharing
Select photos to share
Click on All Photos already selected Do anyway
When Apply turns black click on Apply
Now go to Apple TV to see if photos there
Or restart iTunes.
Works for me every time photos do not appear on my Apple TV 3
Hopefully will work for you.

Text files don't show on fillable form after saving on a mac

I have a fillable form with text and check fileds on it, if a user filles it on a windows pc and saves it all works fine, but if a user does the same thing on a MAC then the text fields don't show.

Avoid touching any PDF (in particular any PDF form file) with Preview.
Be well...

MP3 files don't show album artwork unless I move them to another directory. Why?

I am running 10.8.3.
If I navigate to a folder that has an MP3 file in it, the album art doesn't show in Finder or in Quick Look or Cover Flow. If I move that file, anywhere, it shows correctly. There is one artist that I had spelled the name incorrectly, and now that the two albums from that artist are relocated to a new folder because the name changed, the artwork is fine for them.
I have read some other threads about people having trouble embedding artwork, or it not showing up in Finder properly but the issue doesn't seem to be the same as what I am experiencing. I know the images are embedded because of the fact that when I move them around, they work perfectly.
Is there a cache that can be cleared regarding this perhaps?
Does anybody have any ideas?

If the album art is embedded in the MP3 file in an APIC frame of an id3v2 tag then the music player will display it.

Report Painter - New Columns Don't Show Up

Hello All,
We have a report painter report that was copied from an existing report in transaction CJE5 (for modifying the form) and then assigned in CJE1 (to a report). The copied report was functioning properly with an existing tcode assignment. Now, I am trying to add new columns to the same form and I was able to add and save everything to the form without errors. However, when I execute the report, these new columns don't appear on the report. Can anyone suggest why?
One thing I notice was that when I went to the "Report Parameters", the list of "Columns" does not include the columns that I added. I cannot figure out how to add them to the list so that they would start appearing on the report output.

Hello Suresh, Thanks for the suggestion, but report painter is a functional area and the ABAPer should not be required to insert a new column and make it appear on the report. Any more suggestions, please?

QT files don't show in explorer

I have searched this forum, and others have had similar problems, but I haven't seen any solutions - are there any?
I maintain a website for our school, we are trying to make use of qt for audio and video formats. The success rate is poor. All my tests in various file formats eg mp3, mov, mp4, mp4 (H.264), 3gp, flv, all work well in Safari and Firefox.
In IE6 some show up and some don't. For example a 3gp movie straight from phone, plays back on all browsers. But if I use qt to just take a clip of the 3gp file, and save in qt 3gp, it doesn't play in IE or in Firefox for windows machines.
It's driving me crazy! I am sick of getting great results on the Mac side, but this incompatibility on the Windows side. Sadly most viewers of our site will have IE, so we need QT to work globally.
Is it just me, or is this a problem? Can I work around it? Is there a format that will allow retention of quality and small file size at the same time, using qt?
Looking forward to a solution to my problems! Thanks

I don't know what that code is that you've pasted. Maybe a Perl script from a PHP file?
But it does use QTSRC (as opposed to SRC) when it does the voodoo it does.
So. It should call any QuickTime format into the browser window in the space you've provided.
M$ has "tweaked" just about all the code used in any file format used in Web pages. All of the other browsers use the old "Netscape" style browser plug-in but M$ still uses ActiveX so we Mac users must write special code to first "call" it and then more code to avoid ActiveX "security issues" and alert dialogs.
I've had to modify (along with millions of other Web page authors) all of my pages that include QT content to a newer "javascript" and "object:" tag code just so those M$ viewers can see my 5 year old pages without a bunch of alerts and warnings.
I can only suspect that your "blog" software is writing bad code (doubtful if it works using a Mac and Safari) or that your end users still have some "control" even though you're forcing QuickTime be used via the qtsrc tag.
I'll bet it is a MIME type issue from your server (those that actually host your files and pages).
Maybe a call to them could help sort things out?

Remote Files don't show up

I go to the Window drop-down menu and choose
Workspace Layout, Dual Screen. The local files show up on the right
window. I click on the icon of the two plugs on the toolbar to
bring up the Remote Sites in the left window, and the Background
File Activity says that it's connecting to my website and the icon
of the two plugs show that they are connected. But no files show up
in the Remote Site on the left window of the screen. I've done this
many times before and it worked fine. Now I'm travelling and in new
places, and suddenly it won't work for me. I've tried it in three
different locations. I'm using Dreamweaver 8 with a Mac OS X
10.4.8.

All new files and folders show up as READ ONLY

I am new to the iMac, and am having problems with files an folders. My account is an administrator's account, but when ever I create a new folder, or move a file into it, it shows up as READ ONLY. This is really annoying as I am moving hundreds of files from my PC to the iMac. How do I set things up so that new folders and files are not READ ONLY? Thanks!

10g Bug: new attributes don't show up until restart JDev

When I edit my Offline Database Objects and my Java classes to add new attributes, the new fields show up in the TopLink mapping screens, but the new attribute is not available for mapping until I exit JDeveloper and restart it.

Hey there Pentrikin,
It sounds like you are unable to see any new apps you install until after you restart the device. I would start by quitting all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone again and test the issue and let me know how it goes:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Can only load files to internet or email by searching for name, files don't show up in window

To anyone who can assist me,
When I go to load something onto the internet from my computer - let's say a movie to YouTube or a file into an email - it brings up the options menu (with my desktop and folders all available on the left hand menu) but doesn't ever show any files. It just shows a turning wheel and loads until you click out of it.
The only way it will show a file is if I repeat the process, but just start typing a file name into the search command. Shows up every time then. Thoughts?
Thanks!

You have 'all items' selected at the top of the Kindle app ?
You can delete the book via the file sharing section in iTunes, just select it and press the delete button on your keyboard and you should get an option to delete it.
Have you tried emailing it to the email address that is associated with your kindle ereaders/apps ? Tap the cogwheel icon at the botton right of the Kindle screen to open its settings and you should see a email address - you can then try emailing the book to that and see if it appears on the device/cloud
