Re-install issue: "missing files" ?

My MacBook was getting slow, so I decided to try a clean re-install after backing everything up to an external drive. After I reinstalled OS X Tiger, I reloaded my apps and libraries of preferences and all from the external drive. When I tried to launch Keynote, I got a message saying, "Files that iWork needs are missing. To restore the missing files, use the iWork installer to reinstall iWork." So I tried that; I trashed the apps, deleted the iWork preferences (.plists), and re-installed from the disc, then ran Software Update until it said I was up to date. Now I'm getting the same error message. Any idea how I figure out what files are missing?
Thanks -
Eric

I was installing Dreamweaver (Mac version) and received this message. The support people gave me the tech note that says to install the most recent ExtendScript update and if this doesn't fix the problem uninstall the entire CS3 Suite. Do either or both of these things if all you have is a day to blow off. AND after you reinstall the entire suite you still have to get all the updates - more time wasted. FYI, the first time I had this issue last year I did this and it didn't fix the problem because, at least then, the uninstaller didn't remove the old ExtendScript files.
This was the real fix. Search for ExtendScript on your system. Throw all the folders in the Trash. Restart your system and run the CS3 installer. If you watch the installer the first thing it does is repair the current installation. Because the ExtendScript folder is missing it replaces it and installs the components you want. Fix time - 2 minutes.

Issues Missing files & duplicate files and not enough screen space

Hello everyone,
I'm using a 1.67 Ghz 15 in tibook with 1 gig of ram
I had issue yesterday, missing files, I was in the rating/keywords panel scrolling through my images, one was a bit soft so I deleted it using the command delete combo. Somehow all of the images in the project disappeared. They hadn't been moved to the trash, I looked, and looked and looked, I couldn't find them using a search, and it should have been easy, they were the first images that had been imported into Aperture.
So since I had copied the 70 files to my hardrive first I re-imported them. Couldn't see those either.
Deleted the project and re-imported again, worked fine, and I couldn't reproduce the problem.
When I went to export five images, (all the images had been re-named with a sequential suffix, Smith_01, Smith_02, Smith_03...), to my desktop so I could copy to our server, I remembered that I needed to update a caption on one image. (Could that caption box be any smaller?), anyway I exported again, I meant to only export the individual image but exported all five again. Instead of telling me there were duplicate files on the desktop it increased the sequential number of each duplicate file by 1. So now instead of one file of Smith_01, Smith _08, Smith 33, etc, I have the original and the Smith_01 file now has a matching image slugged Smith_02 on the desktop as well, along with all the others that had a match with a suffix one digit higher. And of course back in the project there is a Smith_02 that is different..
If I were to copy different files with the same name to other folders or our archive server one of those images could be easily discarded or copied over by the file with the duplicate name.
And lastly, when importing I tried to rename my files and add a generic caption, I imported the same images a few times, the first time I couldn't scroll down to see the caption box and metadata, the second time I could see the scroll and add the metadata below. The third time I couldn't scroll down. Very Wierd!
And lastly, is there any way to show just the adjustments or just the metadata boxes on the Adjustments & Filters layout? The boxes are so small already I'd like to be able to at least use the whole side of the screen for one box. I'd really like to be able to put them where I want them. The adjustment HUD works this way on a full screen but I want to get rid of the strip of thumbnails in the full screen and just have the HUD and the image, nothing else.
Any insights would be great.
Thanks,
Craig

Hello everyone,
<...>
I had issue yesterday, missing files, I was in the
rating/keywords panel scrolling through my images,
one was a bit soft so I deleted it using the command
delete combo. Somehow all of the images in the
project disappeared. They hadn't been moved to the
trash, I looked, and looked and looked, I couldn't
find them using a search, and it should have been
easy, they were the first images that had been
imported into Aperture.
I think they were in the trash - as far as I know search does not work within the trash itself.
Nope not in the trash, that's the first place I looked, I also found that deleting a project is the fastest way to export the masters. Just pull them out of the trash can
They should have been moved to the trash folder, inside an Aperture directory, and then from there inside of a folder with the name of the project the image was in.
Alternatley (and I'm not sure how this migh thave happened) they may have been marked as "rejected". All views have a default search >>criteria that starts with "unrated or higher" but rejected photos are lower than this and are not seen. By default there is a smart folder at the >>top of your library that shows Unrated pictures, you might check to see if they are there.
I'll double check the shortcut for rejects, this is the only plausible explanation, but it doesn't explain why the second import of images couldn't be found either.
So since I had copied the 70 files to my hardrive
first I re-imported them. Couldn't see those
either.
Deleted the project and re-imported again, worked
fine, and I couldn't reproduce the problem.
Well, I'm sorry to say I have no theories to offer there. Just glad it worked eventually!
When I went to export five images, (all the images
had been re-named with a sequential suffix, Smith_01,
Smith_02, Smith_03...), to my desktop so I could copy
to our server, I remembered that I needed to update a
caption on one image. (Could that caption box be any
smaller?), anyway I exported again, I meant to only
export the individual image but exported all five
again. Instead of telling me there were duplicate
files on the desktop it increased the sequential
number of each duplicate file by 1. So now instead
of one file of Smith_01, Smith _08, Smith 33, etc,
<...>
Yes, Aperure will refuse to overwrite any file ever - and will always add those other numbers if it encounters a file with the same name as the one it is trying to generate!
I agree that this is a good thing, but there should be an alert of some kind if you have a duplicate. The finder certainly tells you if you are trying to copy a duplicate file to the same location. Adding an increment of one to the sequential suffix without an alert is very poor planning. On deadline trying to get files into our system I could have easily overlooked the duplicates and overwritten other files with the same name.
The only way to work around that is either to delete all files from the directory before you export from Aperture, or to export to an empty directory and copy them over yourself.
The work around is easily figured out, but like some other things I shouldn't have to work around it.
<...>
And lastly, is there any way to show just the
adjustments or just the metadata boxes on the
Adjustments & Filters layout? The boxes are so small
already I'd like to be able to at least use the whole
side of the screen for one box. I'd really like to
be able to put them where I want them. The
adjustment HUD works this way on a full screen but I
want to get rid of the strip of thumbnails in the
full screen and just have the HUD and the image,
nothing else.
Well, another option there would be to drag the divider between the metadata and the adjustments all the way up (as much as you can >>anyway, the histogram will still be visible).
That would be wonderful, but I'm on a 15 in ti book and there isn't enough space to do that. The divider show up but you can't move it. Ideally you should be able to just view the metadata or just the adjustments if you so choose. Binding them together is stupid, if I'm making adjustments, I don't care what is happening in the metadata screen and when I'm adding captions and changing metadata I don't need to see the adjustments screen. Give me a metadata template like the IPTC screen in Photomechanic that I can save and apply and put it on the screen where I want it.
Then to see adjustments just use the adjustment HUD - key "H" to bring up or dismiss. It will stay where you put it when you make it go >>away and come back and you can have it whereever you like on the screen unlike the inspector.
I'd love to do that but it can't be done on a 15 in laptop screen.
For maximum space value, you could arrange the Adjustments HUD to exactly overlay the space where the Inspector is - then you can press >>"I" to make the inspector come and go, and "H" for the Adjustments Hud all in the same space.
For maximum space on adjustments I'm using the full screen with the HUD. At least I can then move the HUD where I want it to be, not anchored on the right side.
In general look over the keyboard shortcuts as there are a lot of keys to make panels come up and go away quickly (one key, no modifiers) >>which really helps to maximize use of screen space.
I'm still learning them and I'm sure that will help, but the adjustments panel and the metadata panel have to be changed to make it more usable on a laptop in my opinion. Maybe it's fine on a large monitor, I wouldn't know as I can't load it on my G5 desktop without a hack. And so far I'd rather use Photomechanic for sorting and captioning it's much much faster for newspaper work.

Photoshop CS4 Install Issue (corrupt file)

As someone else below had this problem, and apparently solved it, I'm reposting here because I haven't solved it, and the issue doesn't seem to be going away like it did for them.
I purchased the CS4 PS upgrade from Adobe's site. After downloading it (using the latest non-beta firefox) I double click the EXE file (of the two it downloads) and get an error stating "A problem occured when extracting some files. Check available space and write privledges"
My drive has over 300gb free space, and I'm running as admin.
I have tried disabling UAC and turning off my AV software to no avail, re-installing and redownloading both with no UAC/AV going. The gentleman (kfallsbob) that had this problem solved it by repeatedly downloading the software until he got a good copy. After this revelation was made, I downloaded the trial version of the latest winzip to get to the .Z7 file and see if it was valid. It extracts part way and gives a data error, so it appears the file is corrupted or becomes corrupted during the DL process.
I have downloaded this 7 times so far. I'm reaching the limit of my patience.
Does anyone have a solution for this? I submitted a request for help through the website, but apparently the case has dissapeared. I will try calling when I get home, but I often work late.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks.
System: Intel E6700 running vista ultimate 64 with 8gb ram

Looked through that, looks like it's for non Akamai (the DL manager) downloads since those bypass the whole internet cache and whatnot. I tried digging up the FTP site, but looks like they host only their free apps there (go figure...) I'm hoping that they have some alternate DL method I can get to, but still haven't heard from them. Unfortunately phone support is only around until 5pm pacific time and strangely enough, I work until 5pm pacific time... I would love to see a company that has people around later than normal work hours for support!
WHEEEEE!
Edit:
Given that the regular install process and winzip both choke at about 4% through the extraction process, I'm going to call that sufficient as far as unzipping the compressed file goes.

WinProducer install issue - missing dll

I purchased a G4MX440-VTD8X video card with the bundled WinProducer / WinCoder software. When I attempt to install I get....
..main menu
..click on install software
..click on winproducer/coder
..click on install now
..get a screen with the professional users pack stuff on it -- click next
..click i like it on the 'authoring & burningto vcs/svcdsupport' screen
..click on I like it on the divx screen
.. get winproducer setup is creating the install shield wizard....., the task bar moves to the right
.. then I get
unhandled exception
error number:0x80040707
Description:Dll function call crashed:Instutil.GetProducerProductInfo
Setup will now terminate
What am I missing? It seems that it is looking for a dll -- is it missing from the CD? Or is there something that I need to have already installed to get the product to install for me.
Thanks, Nacho

Maybe if someone had this dll file they could send it to me -- maybe I could get the install to pick it up...

Elements 7 install issue, help file not found

I'm at my wits' end with this thing. In the Organize mode, clicking on the Photoshop Elements Help does nothing, and in the Edit mode, I get the following error message "The requested help topic could not be found. Please reinstall Photoshop Elements to fix this problem." I have un- and reinstalled many times, trying many variations -- installing from the desktop, in a simplified mode, as an administrator, and combinations thereof. The same every time. There does not appear to be a help file. Please help me someone, I am feeling very, very frustrated.

Install issue Oracle XE 10g - missing dbf files

After installation of Oracle XE 10g on Win XP SP3, I can not logon.
Errors:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
After checking several threads in this forum, I found, that the setup did not
install any dbf file.
I can not guess, what caused this problem.
Several de-installs and installs. Download other (newer) installation package did
not help.
Installation on another Win XP SP3 has the same problem. On a brand new Win XP installation
it worked, but I need it on the other machine too.
Can anybody help? Any hints?
Thank you.
Manfred

If you don't get the .dbf files, installer didn't finish all the setup tasks.
Check the docs for all the deinstall steps, especially the registry cleanups, leftover bits there can keep it from working :(

Cannot install driver due to missing files - BlockSysUser and hpzpnp.ice_suffix

I have just purchased a new Dell with Windows 7 64-bit and am trying to install the driver for my oldie-but-goodie OfficeJet 6310. I am having the same problem with BlockSysUser as has appeared numerous times, and have tried all of the posted solutions. I downloaded the driver from the website.
I can get past the BlockSysUser issue by creating another folder called ".SourcePath.setup" and copying the BlockSysUser file that resides in Setup. However, I then get a missing file hpzpnp.ice_suffix.exe, which I cannot find in any of the other folders. It seems to be looking for this also in ".SourcePath.setup".
I can install the printer using Windows, but then I don't have the other good stuff.
This problem seems to have been around for YEARS! Why hasn't it been resolved through driver updates?
Help!

Hi DForm,
It's okay regarding the log file, I did some more research for you and found these steps:
Turn off Anti-Virus (McAffee in this case). How to Disable McAfee Antivirus.
Disabled the firewall. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
Perform a L4 uninstall. (a) On the keyboard, hit the Windows and "R" key, then type %temp% and hit enter. b) Locate the correct folder starting with "7z" (the correct folder contains "Util" and "CCC" folders). c) Open folder "Util". d) Open folder "CCC". e) Please run the L4uninstall.bat. f) When the uninstall has completed, restart the computer).
Disabled startup and non MS services. Disable startup items and non-Microsoft services.
Restart the computer.
Run setup as admin. How do I run an application once with a full administrator access token.
Hope this solves the issue, and hope to hear from you soon!

Exchange Server 2013 Missing file on ISO install Error Code 1603

Hi all, a mystery needs solving any suggestions much appreciated:
We are trying to install Exchange Server 2013 on Windows 2012 server.
The ISO File being used is: SW_DVD9_Exchange_Svr_2013w_SP1_MultiLang_Std_Ent_MLF_X19-35118
All preparation and requisites in place.
During Stage 2 Copying files, we receive an error code 1603 and installation halts.
The error states:
Installing product F:\exchangeserver.msi failed. Fatal error during installation. Error code is 1603. Last error reported by the MSI package is 'Source file not found: F:\Setup\ServerRoles\ClientAccess\Owa\prem\version\resources\themes\base\0\microsoft.o365.controls.timeline.mouse.css.
Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.'.
We have verified that the Path in the error is correct and exists BUT the file is not present within the 0 folder.
We have downloaded the ISO from our Action Pack resources twice and attempted 4 separate installations.
We have tried both Mailbox/Client Access and Mailbox only installations.
The missing file: microsoft.o365.controls.timeline.mouse.css. Hopefully the only file misisng???
Any ideas anyone, could we source a different ISO or copy of the file or ?????
Many thanks in advance

Had the same issue with Exchange 2013 SP 1 Downloaded as an ISO from the Volume License Center, installing on a new Server 2012R2 STD box. I found the equivalent file in another ISO but discovered it was just an empty CSS file. So the easiest way is to not
bother trying to find the file but: 1) open notepad, 2) set save to "All Files", and 3) save an empty CSS file with that filename then place it in the directory indicated in the path given in the error. (Make sure it saves as
a CSS and not as a TXT.)
I reran the install and it completed without issue.

"Itunes missing files - please re-install"

Hi I wonder if anyone can help me. I am having major problems ever since i downloaded the newest update. Cant access my itunes now as keep getting a message that says there are files missing and that I need to reinstall itunes. Have tried over and over to re-install but still keep getting the same message!! Many thanks,

Aichenelf,
I cannot thank you enough for your post! I upgraded my iTunes because some of the freebie songs on Tuesday said they required a higher version of iTunes. Wow! The two weeks since that fateful day have been filled with problem after problem. The 7.5 would not work on my machine, and I got the same "missing files" error. I also got errors that said the QuickTime would not work and that iTunes required QuickTime. I uninstalled all Apple products and tried to reinstall older versions but was not allowed to by the software. I was pulling my hair out. Finally, I read somewhere to go to the directory called WINDOWS\Downloaded Applications\ and to delete any previous versions of iTunesSetup.exe. I also obtained the version 7.2 of QuickTime by itself and installed it on its own. Then, I reinstalled 7.4.3. It took tons of time and tons of trial-and-error to resolve this ridiculous issue. I say "ridiculous" because there is no reason that I can see for artists to insist that their fans use the most recent version of a software. Not everyone can afford to go out and get a new computer to run all this stuff. I digress --> Free or not, I won't go there again. Thanks for listing the older software verions' release numbers ... Made my life a lot simpler. I obtained my older versions by doing a Google search that led me to a place called the File Hippo. Anyhow, hope this can help others who got into the same situation! Back up your library before uninstalling, too! I renamed mine to simply "Music" and have successfully reimported it since the fix. Not sure if my playlists are gone forever, but can recreate them a lot easier than reloading music. Peace & good luck ... I know how frustrating this is !!!

Ok, if you get this message I've read a bit further and found that you must uninstal everything that has something to do with apple. this includes the device driver. this link may help you with that. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 Once I went through the list and deleted everything (device support is a *****). I installed it again and it came up with the same error. I then clicked ok and it rolled back but automatically started installing again and it worked. I know have itunes 10.5. but know my iphone 4 wont connect to it, lol. it says i have to reinstal because the driver didn't take or something. I really want the OS update for my phone but gd this is a bit much.

Did you unzip the entire contents of the download zip file onto your hard drive before running the installer? You need to do that.
I have installed it myself and it went in just fine.
