PDFs from podcasts have lost their link to actual file-

Is there a quick way to restore all links to the files instead of one at a time? I'm getting the " ! " next to the name in iTunes.
Thank you.

No, I'm afraid.
What you can try is Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no faces, places, slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.*
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
*Current Beta of iPhoto Library Manager may get the Faces and Places information. Check at the iPhoto Library Manager site.

Since updating to version 8.0.1 many websites have lost their identity icon.

In the address bar and Bookmarks a lot of web sites have lost their identity icon in Firefox 8.0.1 (which were there before). Holding the cursor over the icon area brings up a message saying 'this site does not supply identity information'. But this message also comes up when putting the cursor over one ''with'' an icon. Some sites have the icon in Bookmarks but it doesn't show in the address bar. I have found it does not happen on Vista laptop, only on Windows 7 desktop.

Hi. I think there are two different things going on here. The "identify information" message relates to something unrelated to the webicon. From what I can tell it has to do with digital signing. I had to do some browsing before I found a site that actually ''was'' signed: Google. When you go to Google you'll see the site name to the right of the webicon with the url afterward. Holding cursor over it shows google.com's signed by Thawte Consulting. Oddly enough, VeriSign is not...um...verified. The story on this one will be interesting.
As far as the webicon goes, if you provide links to a few sites that don't work I'd be glad to take a look. I haven't had the problem yet on Lion or Win 7 Pro, but that doesn't mean anything. It could be the way the icon is identified or its filetype: .ico and .png files can be used (maybe others) and there are different ways to identify them: link rel="shortcut icon" or "icon" and type="image/x-icon" or "image/png" if a png file's used. Could be 8.01 no longer recognizes one of these or incorrectly stated ones it was OK with in the earlier release. All guesses of course w/o having something to look into.

Folders in Business Area have lost their Owner

I have several Business Areas that have folders which have lost their Owner. I need to update the Owner to APPS in the business areas where the current owner is NULL. Can someone confirm that the only place I need to update the Owner for Discoverer Folders is eul4_ojbs.obj_ext_owner. Here is the SQL that I use to search for missing owners for folders from database tables:
SELECT
obj_id,
obj_type,
notm,
obj_name,
obj_ext_owner
FROM
eul_us.eul4_objs
WHERE
obj_id in (SELECT bol_obj_id
FROM eul_us.eul4_ba_obj_links
WHERE bol_ba_id IN
(SELECT ba_id
FROM eul_us.eul4_bas
WHERE ba_name LIKE '%Budget%') )
AND obj_type = 'SOBJ'
AND obj_ext_owner IS NULL

I opened a SR (5389569.992). The short answer to the cause of the problem is the EEX files provided as the Discoverer Upgrade file were all missing the Owner. In all the files that created folders there is an entry, ExternalObjectOwner="". This sets the owner in the folder to "". The fix is to create a script that replaces this string with ExternalObjectOwner="APPS" in all the EEX files in the folder. We had to hire a consultant to find this out.

Mp4 files have lost their quicktime icons!!

just noticed this and not sure when it happened
all my .mp4 files on all hard drives connected to my 10.4.9 G5 have lost their quicktime icons. they all open in quicktime just fine, but they do not automatically have the proper quicktime icons anymore. .mov files still have their icons
it's not an operational problem but I'd still like to solve it
only thing I can think of is that I upgraded my quicktime and itunes to the latest versions within the past couple of days.
I've repaired permissions and rebooted to no avail
has anyone seen this and know how to fix it?

Hi David,
Get Info on one of the affected files with the blank icon. Click on the icon in the Get Info window and press the Delete key. (not the Backspace key)
Provided that the default application to open .mp4 files is QuickTime player, the icon should change to the standard QT icon.
If this works, change all files of that type to open with the QuickTime Player by default. (unfortunately I'm at work, on a PC, and can't give you the button detail verbatim - working from memory now) That should reassociate the QT player with all .mp4 files, and thus assign the correct icon.
Hope this helps,
Steve

Definitly sounds like a physical issue with the phone. I suggest you go to your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.

Framework files have lost their magic juju

I have a bunch of .framework files that used to be packages, but seem to have lost some flag in the file system metadata, or something. They now appear as regular folders and can easily be navigated into just like any other folder (without having to "show package contents"). What's more, they no longer function the way they are supposed to. Is there any handy command line method of "re-packaging" these frameworks? Something in the form of:
makepackage /path/to/brokenpackage
Thanks.

There is also a bundle bit that is set for certain folders and that will cause them to look like files in the Finder, even without a folder extension. For instance, in my Photoshop plugin folder, if I look at the the TWAIN plugin in Terminal, using the GetFileInfo command (available if you have installed Developer Tools) it has the bundle bit set:
francine$ GetFileInfo TWAIN
directory: "TWAIN"
attributes: avBstclinmed
created: 12/23/2003 23:38:41
modified: 12/23/2003 23:38:41
The capital "B" means the bundle attribute is set. You can change attributes using the SetFile command (again, presuming you have Developer Tools installed). You should probably first do a GetInfo on one of the plugins that is in a working install, to determine exactly what the case is supposed to be. Afraid I don't have any plugins in .framework folder form.

HT2531 I have lost some of the original files for some of my itunes. Any suggestions for getting them back?

I have lost some of my original files for my iphotos and also my itunes. Do you know how to recover these files?

After downloading a pdf from a website, how can I view the file in Safari 6.0.4 (just as I can in Safari 5.0.6)? I bet that it's simple, but I've missed something, somewhere, and a solution will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Kirk,
Thank's for your efforts, and I just wish that this was the solution. Unfortunately, it isn't because, after double-clicking on the pdf in the website, it simply "opens" in another Safari window as a black screen - the pdf is there, somewhere, but not visible (either as an icon, or as a document).
When I right-click in the black Safari window, where the file is supposed to be, the only option available to display the file is to "Open file in Internet Explorer" (which is not what I want to do). Other options include saving or printing the pdf, which I don't want until I've confirmed that it's the form that I want. The same options are offered if I right-click on the file icon in the website.
Any other suggestions, please?

Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

New iTunes 10 took away auto syncing for PDFs from podcasts?!

You might as well make this a sticky since I've answered my own question:
The autosyncing of PDFs to iBooks has been changed. You now have to select your PDFs and put them to the "book" selection under media selection. I guess you can make a smartlist to find your PDFs so you can find them quickly to change their media type.

Ok Apple why did you have to break something that was working perfectly to begin with? None of the PDFs can be synced to my iPhone now even though it says it is. This is just ******* ignorant that you had to go and change something yet again!
Now I've got to figure out a good way to get these PDFs from the podcast folder into either my AirSharing or Stanza apps so I can read them again.
Does anyone have a good idea about how to do this, preferably automatically?

Help! How to e-mail a PDF (from Pages) with active web links!

I have been working on this for hours without any success! I would be so grateful for a brainy Apple wiz to help me out. I am creating a Pages document that has active web links in it. My goal is to e-mail my document with the active web links in it.
So - If I export my Pages doc as a PDF to my desktop, the links work great! However - the moment I put that PDF into an email and send it the links become inactive. Is there any way to create a Pages document with web links > Export it as a PDF > Then mail with active (clickable) links? I have tried many times without success.
If the answer to my question is no, does anyone have a tip for where I can create a PDF and mail it with active links? Will any of the Adobe programs work for this type of thing?
Thanks so much!!
Kristen

Using Pages '09 v4.2.
I just tested this. Assumption: You have the “Windows friendly attachments” checked in the attachments panel.
Your Pages document is open. The web links are active. You want to get it into Mail.
From the Pages menu bar, choose Share > Send Via Mail > PDF.
Mail will open with a compose window. Your PDF will be attached as a full view document. You see the links present in the PDF.
Now, click near the web links. This shows your PDF in blue. Now right-button click, and choose View as Icon from the pop-up panel.
Now mail it to yourself on another account that Mail can open.
You will see the web links in the PDF.
Right-button click on a link and from the pop-up menu, choose Open with Safari.
If you chose Quick Look, it would pop open the PDF and offer to open it further in your default PDF viewer. In my case, it is Adobe Reader.
If Reader opens this PDF from the Mail attachment, the web links remain active.
Does this solve your issue?

I have lost the link to the backlight on my keyboard of my macbook

I have lost the backlight of my keyboard and when I go to the 'keyboard' in System Preferences, there is no link. Is it possible to lose this information by using a 'disk sweeper'?

Very straightforward. 10.6 by default does what's called an archive and install, it will only replace your system, you won't lose any files. Just to be safe though you should ALWAYS make a current backup before making any changes in the event that something does go wrong.
Insert your 10.6 disc and restart while holding the C key, should be pretty painless. Remember to run software update when the install is done to get up to date.

How to Identify titles that have lost the link to the music file/folder..

Is there a way of listing all the Music titles that no longer have a valid link to the source file and deleting them. I am afraid in my previous inexperience i inadvertently messed things up while trying to organise... ehum... Anyway, trying to organise again hopefully with more success now. Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

TT2's +*lost & found+* will work.
another option might be this app:
_*Music Folder Files Not Added v2.0*_
This application will list the file paths of the files in your designated "iTunes Media" folder which are not in iTunes' library. Additionally, you can select a different parent folder and its contents will be compared to the iTunes library. Options to Add a selection of found files to iTunes or move them to the Trash.

Lots of my clips of videos have lost their audio in the event and project.

I have been making a video using iMovie and when it started everything was fine and as it should be. I have been adding clips to the project and all seemed fine. Some clips get rejected and moved to the trash to clear some space on my hard drive. I have just played the video back and lots of the clips have no audio over them, even though they did when they were imported. The clips that have lost the audio aren't ones that have had parts rejected and I have tried all of the help topics that iMovie has to offer. Can anyone help me work out how I can find these again because these clips are very important. Please help, I'm really not impressed. Thanks

The audio should still be there. Try opening the clip inspector to the audio tab and set the volume slider to 100%.
Also, make sure you don't have the ducking feature in use. That will cause all other clips to be muted while the ducking is on.
