RELINKING IMAGES MANUALLY IN INDESIGN DOESN'T WORK

Hello,
Please help,
I am opening an Indesign CS3 EPS image file in Indesign CS4 which is made by combining 2 Clipping path images. The problem is: I am not ablt to use the images manually. however, automatic relink works fine. Although I don't know where that option is. I just want to use manual relink.
any suggestions??
thanks
Rachael

I've seen cases where this "Mini Save"/ "Automatic Recovery" did not work at all.
Rare cases, but:
Always when the InDesign file is opened on a different computer and you are working on a network. And someone pulls the plug from that other computer (shutting it down, ignoring the messages that another machine is hooked)!
SO: I would never rely or bet on the otherwise fabulous feature "Mini Save"/ "Automatic Recovery".
There is a startup script around in the web by Martin Fischer somewhere on the site hilfdirselbst.ch, that saves a copy of the actual file in a special folder every time you do a "save" or "cmd + s" adding a continous number to the auto saved file name.

Self-assigned or Manually Assigned IP Doesn't Work.

I've got a network of four Macs in my house, using a wireless router from Verizon. This network has been working fine for at least a year. For the last week, though, my MBP can't access the internet or see other computers. My router recognizes the MBP and the MBP shows full bars for the wireless signal, but other than that, nada. This is true whether it's a self-assigned IP or I manually create the IP (using the IP address that the router recognizes as the MBP).
The MBP hasn't left the house. The entire network set up has not changed.
I have tried:
- Manually setting the IP - worked briefly last night, but now doesn't work again.
- Resetting nvram - didn't work at all
- Power cycling computers and router in all possible permutations
- I may have tried other things that I'm not thinking of now
Any fixes or info on why this kind of thing happens would be greatly appreciated.

Undo button indesign doesn't work

Hey guys,
I made a dossier in indesign (mac) for my design class and I worked over 24 hours on it.
Tomorrow, I have to hand it in, but then yesterday suddenly my SAVE, SAVE AS, and UNDO and REDO buttons didn't work anymore! So I let the laptop like it was and today I worked again on it,
but I accidentally deleated the wrong layer and now THE WHOLE DOSSIER IS DELEATED!
I can't undo it, because the button still doesn't work and I'm lucky that some hours ago, I exported the data as a PDF-file which thankfully worked, but there are still hours of hard work missing and now my project is not finished!
Can anyone help me? Please, I'm freaking out right now!!

No, you'll never get back any changes you made between the last save and the time the file was closed. If that was three hours work, that's unfortunate. My advice was simply a way for you to recover as much of your work as possible so you wouldn't need to start over from nothing.
Consider this as a good lesson in workflow habits. Save often, and I recommend doing a Save As with a new versioning name (I append a number) at each major change point where you are about to branchin a new direction. This gives you not only a set of backup files, but the ability to easily go back to a previous version and go in a new direction.
It's also good to develop the habit of hitting Cmd-Z (Ctrl-Z on Windows) for Undo immediately after you make a mistake, though it sounds like you actually tried to do this. File > Revert can be helpful too, if you've been saving right along.

Image transfer via AIM doesn't work in Messages anymore

My chat contacts and me are experiences many issues with inline image transfer via AIM since Yosemite, especially if two people have different OS versions. If one party is on Yosemite, image transfer with the standard server settings doesn’t work anymore. I read in one of the other threads here that port 5190 is required for image transfer. The default setting is 443 (and it should change the port for image automatically?). Is it possible that something with the ports or the SSL behavior has changed for Messages 9 on Yosemite? (I have computers with 10.10 and 10.8 and experience issues both ways chatting with someone on a different OS).
It seems to work if everyone switches off SSL which changes the default settings to login.oscar.aol.com and port 5190. If both parties have this setting it works. If one uses port 443 and SSL on it doesn’t. But switching off SSL is not a sustainable solution. Any other ideas? I tried to force port 5190 and slogin.oscar… with SSL but then can’t connect.

Hello, Vidula
It seems that index 0 is reserved for the empty symbol, no matter what custom symbol you provided. Adding one image in front before setting symbols array and incrementing ItemSyms indexes solves this problem. However, I can't find any information about this in documentation, which would be nice

Manual duplex printing doesn't work for LaserJet 100 color MFP M175a

Hi !
OS Windows 8.1. Printer LaserJet 100 color MFP M175a. Driver version 61.108.8.10073 date 2011 Apr 13th
1. After switching on checkbox "Print on Both Sides (Manually)" on "Finishing" tab of Print Properties Dialog and
start printing, dialog with instruction how to turn paper appears. Then printer must print odd pages, stop for
turning paper and then continue printing of even pages on the back side of paper sheets. But my device prints
all pages sequentually in order 1,2,3,... without any breaks. What is it- my mistake or possible bug in driver ?
2. Windows API function DeviceCapabilities with fwCapability=DC_DUPLEX for this printer returns 0 (duplex printing
impossible). This value for any other HP printer, even without automatic duplexer, always equel to 1.
This question was solved.

Manually Manage Podcasts doesn't work

I set my songs to update automatically, and my podcasts are set to "Manually manage podcasts." However, when I try to drag a podcast to the iPod icon (or the iPod>Podcasts icon), the file just bounces back and doesn't get transferred. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Relinking image files in Indesign CS6 library

I have a customer that has created more than 300 page templates stored as libary files.They are distributing the library across multiple properties in their organization and in each instance, on the "other" servers, all images linked in the templates come up as "Broken links" when placed on a page in the new location. Hypothecically all of the imags in the original libary are linked to \\fileserverA\Images and I need to do a batch update to relink all linked items to \fileserverB\Images. I would like to find a way to do this without have to each template on to a page individually, fix the link and place back into library. I know there is a preference that will use "most recent folder" when updating links, but i want to fix the problem globally in the Library file rather than leave it to each individual to do the right thing

Can you upload the PM file to dropbox and provide a link? Then one of us who do not seem to have this issue (at least I don't with my PM files) can take a look and perhaps convert it for you.
Take care, Mike

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip doesn't work in IE, but works in Safari and Firefox

Hello,
The Spry slideshow with filmstrip wiget works fine in Firefox and Safari. However, it does not work in Internet Explorer. The slideshow looks like it is loading (the little circle spins), then it disappears and the slideshow is replaced with an empty space and a little white box with the red x (that normally signifies a missing picture of picture that can't load for some reason). Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I was hoping that the widget would work in Safari, Firefox, and IE. Does anyone know of another option for adding a slideshow that works in all three browsers?
Thanks!!

gatorgirl,
Here are the first lines in my template. The Spry Menu script src and link statements are the only two lines that have to be moved (on your template or any page for that matter) above the Spry Slideshow src and link statements. Just leave the Slideshow code in the same position that Dreamweaver inserts it.   When you create a new document from your template, Dreamweaver leaves it alone. Just set it and forget it.   I've wrestled with all sorts of other solutions listed on this forum and this is the fix that continues to work for me! It seems to me that the only reason this solution works is that javascript is a procedural language and some code in the Spry Slideshow javascript has some conflict (maybe a name/symbol problem) with the Spry Slideshow javascript. If someone else knows the absolute reason for this ordering problem, please feel free to come back and teach me!! Always ready to learn something new!!
I hope this helps you!

Why does closing a window in Indesign doesn't work?

I have a question concerning Indesign script.
Why does it work, when you close a window like:
submitButton.onClick = function(){ close(); }
But when I try to execute a function afterwards like:
submitButton.onClick = function(){ close(); tagElements(); }
(note I am using the "with" tag, so no window.close() is needed)
The window does not close? Am I forgetting about something here? Shouldn't the window close, and then execute the function?
The window is initialized like:
var de = new Window('dialog', 'Descriptions');

O.k. but did you see if it does work when you use de.close() ?

[CS5] Using PDF Export Preset from Distiller with InDesign, doesn't work the same?

Hello,
We are in the process of reworking one of our workflows in which we would manually use Distiller to create a PDF. Now we are trying to automate this with InDesign. My first thought was that I could try using the same PDF Export Preset (.joboptions file) used in Distiller, load it into InDesign, and export my book as a PDF using this preset.
For my current testing example, there are about 115 pages in this PDF document. The PDF that Distiller created is of pretty good quality, and is about 34MB. When I used the same .joboptions file to export an InDesign book of the same original documents as a PDF, the result is equal in quality, but is about 119MB.
Does anyone know why they aren't even close in file size? Is InDesign packing more stuff (maybe related to the actual InDesign documents, or the book itself) into the final PDF? If so, is there anyway to get InDesign to give a similar PDF (in terms of both size and quality) using the .joboptions file from Distiller?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply!
I won't be able to use Acrobat Pro, and my hope is to continue using InDesign/InDesign Server. Since my goal is to match what Distiller produces, is there a way (with InDesign) to export PDFs but to strip out the layers/interactivity/transparency that Distiller does not support? The output PDF will be used for archive purposes only.
Thanks again for any advice!

Core Image Fun House - STILL doesn't work!

Hello,
I have been trying to get Core Image Fun House to work on my G5, and I have only able to get it to work once or twice, even my own custom-compiled version.
I use Fast User Switching on my machine, and it appears that once you have used FUS once after a boot, you never get CIFH to work again. The program loads, but no effects work.
I thought by 10.4.6, Apple might have fixed this, but no dice.
Evidence of a problem is always in console.log, and it looks like this:
2006-04-04 17:38:43.015 Core Image Fun House[2378] CIGlassDistortion: glassDistort: nil value for argument #0 (tex0)
Can anyone else corroborate?
Thanks, because I am getting tired of this and really want to program with Core Image....
Drew

I just tried it for the first time (amusing program!), and it works OK with fast user switching for me. I had it running under two users, one an admin user, the other a normal user, switched back and forth a couple times, worked under both worlds. Quit the program and restarted, kept working.

Manually Managain music doesn't work.

After plugging my iPod nano in for the first time and using the sync features, i wasn't really satisifed with the level of control it gave me--either it let me import whole genres or artists. after looking over the user manual, i tried switiching the ipod over to the manual management mode. for a few minutes the ipod allowed me to drag and drop music into the ipod's music folder from my library. I added all the music i wanted and ejected/disconnected the iPod.
Now, when I reconnect my ipod to itunes, i can't add music to the folder--i drag music in my library over the ipod icon, but nothing happens (the green "+" indicator never shows up). It is also of note that i can delete any of the songs on my ipod manually, and the lists of music, movies, TV shows and podcasts aren't "grayed out" like they are when the ipod is in auto-sync mode. it just won't let me add more music.
My brother also got the same nano model and also uses the manual management feature, but has no issue with using it (he's on a white macbook running OSX 10.5.8--the same OS i'm using, although i'm on a powermac G5).
What can I do to restore my ability to drag-and-drop files to my iPod? has anyone else had this problem?
Looking at user manuals and troubleshooting guides has yeilded no answer. my problem seems, as of this point, to be unique.

i drag music in my library *over the ipod icon,* but nothing happens (the green "+" indicator never shows up).
Instead of dragging your music over the iPod icon, drag it to the word "Music" which should show under the iPod icon in iTunes side panel.

Then it's time to take advantage of your 90 days of free phone iPod tech support from Apple before you loose it unless you Apple Care. U.S. iPod and Mac technical support: 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273)
c'mon, guys...
The 5th generation is 3 months old. There will be some issues that no one will know the solutions for. Then it's time to contact Apple Tech support. I hope you took advantage of iPod's Apple Care.
