Projects dont appear in "Open Recent"

Ever since i started to save my files and projects to my external Firewire HD (Projects and Media files), my projects dont show up in the "open recent" tab.
The Projects that i saved on my internal HD do, but any project i start on my external drive wont show up.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Might trash prefs, and give it another go, but you're system will run best if the project file isn't on the same drive that your media resides on. It really is best kept in your documents folder on your startup disk.
Since it's relatively a small file, resaving it over and over creates small gaps on the scratch disk, which leads to slower performance of the drive if you're adding media via capture or render etc...

Open project and NOT have it added to 'open recent' menu?

It would be great to be able to browse thru several projects without affecting the 'open recent' menu.
Is this possible with 3.0.2?

I'm afraid this is not an option. However, you can request it in a future version here:

Increase number of "open recent" projects

Is it possible to do this? I went through the preferences, but didn't see a choice. I could have missed it, as I'm partially blind. Bummer!
TIA.

Hi there
To my knowledge there is no way to control the number of projects stored in the Open Recent list. Once the number of project exceeds whatever number is the limit, the oldest project disappears from the list.
If you would like to advise Adobe that you would like to see such a feature in a future update, please click the link below and complete the request.

i recently got new mac air and transferred my old version garageband projects now when I open them in 10.0.2 I can add new tracks but then nothing can record, shows its receiving sound from software inst. but no sound. I checked audio preferences and they are set as they should be. I tried it in all the other older projects and same issue anyone have any experience like this very frustrating. Can one download old version still ? or can you run both versions on OS10.9.5 ?

Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
Two questions, every idea would be great!
- Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
- Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
Thank you again,
Joern

charmi,
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

'open recent' menu - more projects

Hi everybody.
Everytime I launch Logic I browse the 'open recent' menu since I always work on several projects at the same time and seeing their titles and 'chronological order' is helpful to say the least. Back in my logic 5.5 days I had the last 24 songs shown in the menu. With logic 8 express only the last 8 songs are displayed... Any chance to change these settings and get the menu to show, say, 30 or 40 projects? Just titles after all....
thanks,
JC

No luck finding it so far. I've posted a query to the LogicProHelp forum (an excellent resource: http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=142442#142442) -- hopefully I'll get the answer we're hoping for.
I did find this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61328
which tells you how to increase the # of recent items on the Apple (OS) menu. As a poor workaround I've bumped that up to 50.

Opening Recent Projects

I am having trouble finding recent projects that are no longer listed in the drop down list of "Open Recent Projects". How can I find them?

Just to expand on what Joe, Harm and Bill advise, if you find the PROJ files on your C or Boot drive you may what to change the preferences so that all Premiere files etc are on at least one dedicated media drive
On my laptop I have CS5.5
On the "D" drive I created a folder called Adobe_CS and it is to this folder that I set the preferences so all projects, auto save, preview, media cache and my media files are kept within this folder. This is a little messy as everything is in the one folder and from time to time a clean up is required
Bill's method if I read it correctly will require you to create a folder for each project and then set the project preferences to use the newly created folder. Then each folder will be at the same level and within it will be the project file, media cache, previews, auto saves etc which are related to just that project
This is actually a great system as when you have completed the project you can if you wish archive the whole folder and then delete the original
On a desktop the arrangment can be different depending upon how many drives you have available

All project tasks appear when I view a schedule in PWA but the schedule is blank in MS Project Professional

We have a project in our Project Server 2010 environment and it was being managed for a period of time without any issues. Recently, a user has gone into PWA and edited the schedule in PWA by deleting all the tasks and re-creating a new set of tasks.
He has saved and published the project from within PWA.
However, although the schedule can be viewed and edited from within PWA, if we try to open it in MS Project, the schedule is blank. ie. there are no tasks displayed. It is the correct project as the project name appears at the top of the MS Project
window.
I have tried saving and publishing the schedule via PWA but I still get a blank scehdule when I open it in MS Project Professional.
I have also cleared the cache in case there was something happening there but no change.
Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this and how to resolve it?
PS. I am not technical so if you have a technical solution, can you please explain it in as non-technical terms as possible?
Thanks
Peter

Hi Paul
As I mentioned in my post, when I open the scheudle in MS Project, there are no tasks displayed. ie. the schedule is totally blank. So although it could be opened, I was reluctant to publish it via MS Project. I did delete the MS Project
cache as well as the IE Browser history, cookies etc but no effect.
This is now a mute point as I decided to restore an earlier version of the schedule from the backups and it now seems to have been resolved. The schedule is appearing in both PWA and MS Project and they are in synch with each other.
I have put this down to a random corruption that somehow crept into the schedule.
Thanks for your response anyway.

Open all files in 'Open Recent' menu

Is there a way to open all files at once that appear in the 'Open Recent' menu in Preview? If I have 15 PDFs listed, would it be possible to open them all at once (perhaps through Automator?).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Can you identify the disc where your Scratch files go to.
If you have not designated a specific disc it will be in the default location.
You need to remove any files associated with the Project in question from the Scratch Disc location.
Specific info here:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12015274#12015274
If you wish to remove the Recent List trash the FCE Preference files.
Use this to make it easy:

Open Recent menu doesn't work

No matter how many projects I work on, the "Open Recent" menu is always blank.
Same in the Project Browser.
Is it limited (deliberately) to only files that have been saved in the official apple-sanctioned folder?
I ask as the .motn files I save in my own folder musername/projectfiles/motion

As I already explained, if some documents where opened from external devices, it appears that they remain in the list of recent items but can't be open.
If you mount the original device the files will open flawlessly.
It's at least the way it behaves here.

Help needed ASAP -- Project file won't open

Stuck in Africa right now (can't call telephone support).
I am volunteering on a medical/dental trip and am in charge of the final nights video.
Here is the problem.
I am almost done with the video (15 minutes long -- full HD) and suddenly the when I click on the project from the project library it won't open.
all the other projects open fine. Just this one project won't.
when I click on it, the project library slides to the side, but behind it is another project library, but when I mouse over it plays the movie, but it is un-editable in this state.
It was working great until this dreadful moment....
I saw another post about deleting the thumbnails for an EVENT that was having problems. Can this be done with a PROJECT file?
The big movie presentation/trip is in 12 hours....
Can anyone help me???

One time, after quitting IM and re-launching it later, my project disappeared from the project list.
Apple Support told me to do this.
1) quit IM
2) with the finder, move the project out of the project directory
3) launch IM
4) quit IM
5) with the finder, put the project back into the project directory
6) launch IM
My project re-appeared. He said these steps forces a project index to be rebuilt.
Your symptoms are different but maybe the cure is the same --- good luck.

GL account cleared but appears as open in FBL3N

Hello all,
I ran the FX reval for an Open Item managed GL account and then ran the Auto clear program for it. When I check the GL line item report, the clearing document has been created and the balance is infact 0 however, it is appearing as open items.
I checked the OB74 setting, the GL account has been set up as OI managed. The weird part is that there is a clearing document created and when I checked the header, it was created via the autoclear program SAPF124. The ony thng is that the clearing date has been posted as a future date (09.01.2011). Can anyone help me with this please?
Thank you!!!

What is the clearing date of the program SAPF124?
You might be activated Date from most recent documents, so the program will take the date from recent docuemnt.
In that way there is possiblity of your scenario.

Adobe applications don't appear under "open with"

When I control-click an AI file on my desktop, or some graphic, I do not see any Adobe applications like Illustrator and Photoshop as available options UNLESS those applications are already open. I end up having to dig deep under "Other" everytime to find the applications. I don't have this problem with other applications. This began when I installed CS5 recently. How do I get Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.. to appear under "Open With" automatically? I have already tried to do an "always open with for all files of this type" but that does not get saved after I shut down. It always defaults back to preview.
What is the remedy? I would think solving the first problem bolded above should solve the second automatically.

Have a look at this...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
Reset Launch Services...
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/resetlaunchservices.html#Anchor-Reset-47857
Reboot.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
