RH8 fixing broken links

In RH8, I'm trying to fix broken links. I find the topics, then they move from the Broken Links folder to the correct folder but then the topic still looks like it has a broken link! Can anyone advise? here's a pic

Hello again
Unfortunately you are totally misunderstanding things. Please allow me to try and explain better.
ANY folder in your project is going to have an FPJ file inside it. This is a "behind the scenes" file that RoboHelp uses to keep track of the files that are part of the project.
In the image you provided, there are two folders in the project location with similar names:
Ranger_Help
Ranger_Help_
Only the Ranger_Help_ appears to actually be part of the project because the other folder Ranger_Help isn't appearing in the image capture showing the project inside RoboHelp. So unless something screwy happened, you should not find an FPJ file inside that folder. Then again, you may find one. It all depends on what happened.
Personally, I'd look inside the Ranger_Help folder and see if the files representing the broken links are inside. They may well be. And if so, I'd copy them to the Ranger_Help_ folder and see if that resolves things.
This project is beginning to resemble a bowl of spaghetti!
Cheers... Rick

Sorry about that. I am not exactly sure where the problem is, but I know it takes place after I put the <nav> in (in the html portion). If I understand what I am learning, the CSS at the top will structure my html code so I would have thought the CSS tageting my nav would be the focus. Maybe it is a different section though.
CSS part:
nav p {
font-size: 90%;
color: #FFC;
text-align: right;
font-weight: bold;
background-color: #090;
padding-top: 5px;

How do I fix "broken links" in iTunes?

Hey Guys!
I just got my first ipod and I'm going insane trying to set it up this morning. The main problem is that for some reason iTunes decided to add each of my songs twice, but then marked one with that "!" sign that I think idicates a broken link. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program, and for the life of me I can't determine why it's doing this.
Shouldn't it just automatically know the files don't exist and take them out of my library?
Or, can I tell it to go fix the broken links? If so what is the command for doing that?
I am running Windows Vista if that makes a difference. And my brand new ipod is a 16GB Nano (but I have about 70 GB of mp3 files - I'm having to pick and choose what goes on my Nano, which is fine).
I'm sorry if this turns out to be a "duh" solution but I can't find a good answer anywhere online (I tried ITLU and that complex playlist solution from PaulMayne.com already, to no avail).
Thank you so much

I'm having the same problem. Also using OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2).
Any ideas how to fix this?

Is there an automated way to fix broken links?

I've been revising a large online Help system. I've added
many new topics. I've deleted topics. I've changed topic names of
topics already in place. As a result, the system has many broken
links. Is there an automated way, or a utilility, to fix these
links? This is a very large help system.
I'm using X5 (WebHelp).
Feel free to answer via email, and thanks!

When you delete RH offers to fix the links to that topic. If
you did not take that option then you can only fix it manually. Did
you perhaps delete outside of RH?
I don't see how adding a new topic can break a link as
nothing links to it until you create the links.

Is there any quick way to fix broken links without doing it manually?

I am trying to fix my broken links and have so many. I went to one of them and deleted the link and dreamweaver asked me if "Do you also want to fix the remaining broken references to this file?" Will this automatically fix the broken links? Is there a better way to fix them?

Maybe this will help you....

RH8 and broken links

Has anyone ever opened their RH8 project only to find every topic is now a broken link? Is there a quick way to restore all my topics? Or must I do it all individually?
Your help, as always, is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi Peter!
I checked in Help and it says RoboHelp 8.0.0.2. I also went out to your site and looked under Opening Projects. You reference needing a patch if you don't have 8.0.2. Is this the same thing? Sorry for the stupid question.

Fixing Broken Link

Hello All
I have a Robohelp 7 version installed on Windows XP OS and I
use the most recent IE. I imported a .hlp file and created a
webhelp out of it. It worked fine. I generated a HTML help (.chm
file type). Before generating I found there three links broken in
total. The index.htm itself was broken and apart from that two
other links were broken. I rightcliked on the broken link and
clikced Restore. The .chm file generated has TOC and when I clicked
on the topics all I see is a blank page showing "page cannot be
displayed" Any help.
Thanks
Raj

Welcome to the forum
My guess is that the CHM is on a network drive. Move it to a
local drive and it should then work.
See under Authoring on my site for an explanation.

Fixing broken links

Can anyone tell me if there's a way for iTunes to delete broken links in the music library? I recently bought a new hard drive, and after transfering my music collection onto it, my iTunes library is full of double entries; one for the old location, and one for the new one.

Several ways to Clean Up Your Library by Removing "!" or ‘dead links’ within iTunes:
If you move, edit, delete or otherwise change a music file listed in the iTunes Library with a program or tool other than iTunes, you may end up with a "!" in front of the song name. iTunes does not keep track of music file changes made outside of iTunes.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=818692#818692
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=607582
EASIER:
Download this: http://ottodestruct.com/iTunes/RemoveDeadTracks.txt (right-click, save-as)
Rename it to RemoveDeadTracks.js.
Run iTunes.
While iTunes is running, double click RemoveDeadTracks.js to run the script.
It will remove all the exclamation marked tracks.

Fix broken links in bulk?

Hi All:
We currently have hundreds of InDesign CS5 documents with various pictures linked that are housed on our company server. Our IT department will be moving our server, therefore - the address will change and all of our picture links will break. They will be copy/pasting our documents, so the file heirarchy will not change - just the server address. e.g., //servername/marketing/pictures will now be //newservername/marketing/pictures. Is there a way to update the links automatically? or using some kind of script? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

This may well be the script that you are looking for from Kasyan…

Broken links - Everywhere

Hi,
I am sorry. I know this is a wrong place to post.
Can somebody tell me how to tell Oracle to fix BROKEN LINKS. Particularly we will find hundreds of broken links in all Portal related sites.
Thanks

I don't think using a VPN is a viable long term solution, maybe a temporary work around!
If you want to try using one take a look at hotspotshield.com, please note I can't vouch for them, I only set up the VPN to see if the problem was local to the UK.
I used the details for securing an iphone connection (http://hotspotshield.com/clientless/iphone/get_started.php) to set up an L2TP tunnel directly in Mac OS X (i.e. not using their client). I'm not sure how to do this in windows XP or Vista.
As for a solution to the problem I'm not sure I believe fast.co.uk when they say they can't reproduce it. It looks like an issue between fast.co.uk and apple/akamai to me, since more than one fast.co.uk user is seeing it and it is a problem for both the windows and osx version of itunes.
I have included my traceroute info if fast.co.uk or apple need it to diagnose the problem.

Broken Links in RH8 - More Clarification Please

Dear Experts,
I tried following through the other topics posted relating to this topic, however they all seemed to be different than what i am seeign within my project. I know how to correct borken links (per say) within the folders themselves, however, when in the actual folder "broken links" within the project manager, I cannot seem to delete the links that no longer are needed, or to clearly see if I still need them, its a bit overwhelming, as I moved some information within a project, and (while my application kept crashing - whole different story), each time I re-opened, it didn't seem to clear out the changes I had made through the clear caching as I have as my set up.
Within the PM, if I right click on the broken link, I do not get an option for Explore, I only have the below:
However, when I click on Restore within this dialog box, or even if I select the Show topic Link and try and restore, nothing happens. I tried to fix by going into one of the actual topics and deleting the link and then re-inserting and it and then saving the information, but it still remains. I unfortunately broke the links to actual topics that are utilized throughout the entire project, (like fundamental ones for generic searching and stuff)....so it now created havoc for me, and I just cant seem to get started with just one. I know if I can get one going, I will be able to quickly fix the others, but can't figure it out. (probably right under my nose).

This sounds like there were unsaved changes to your project when the project / PC crashed. As a result RoboHelp has got a bit lost as to what should be there. I think the answer is first of all to close your project backup and then delete your project's cpd file. If the project still displays the broken links, open the individual topic files containing links and ensure they are pointing to the right file. It may be best to reinsert the links. Save as you go and hopefully the broken links will disappear. Let us know how you get on.

I have to keep fixing and re-fixing the same broken links in iTunes

Does anyone have a reason, or better yet, a solution as to why I have to keep re-fixing the same dead tracks in iTunes 11? It doesn't seem to matter if i Use 3rd party apps or iTunes Locate feature, I can fix a link then it will just be broken again later. Not all the time though.

Hello, deevho,
First you need to find out if the distributed songs have anything in common, for example the date added or the Artist, since it is obviously not the name of the album. If you can identify some common feature you can create a smart playlist
File > New > Smart Playlist
and define a rule, like "Artist is "
and all your songs will appear in one playlist.
Then select all the songs from the playlist and activate the Information panel "cmd-I". Now set the album, the genre, the artist to a common name.
If however your songs don't have a common feature, then collect the songs by adding them with drag& drop to a regular playlist, and then proceed as mentioned before.
I hope that helps.
Regards
Leonie

Broken Links not fixed after being changed-HELP PLEASE!

I am trying to fix a website I created for a friend. I created it in Dreamweaver CS6 on a Mac. Everything was working on the website, the pitures were showing up and now 2 of the pages arent working. On both pages the spry bar is not working and some of the pictures will not show up. I have went to find broken links and redirected it to the correct file but it is not changing anything. I am not sure how to fix this problem, if anyone has any advice that would be great!! The website is www.serenityatthebeach.com.

That line read correctly when I looked at it on the broken page colorcutstyle. I copied the code from the page if that would help. I hope this helps.

Fix a broken link

Hi
Can anyone help?
I have created a drop down menu in fireworks some time ago
for a client and no longer have the original png file. I need to
fix a broken link in a drop down menu on the site
www.eversfield.co.uk
Under curriculum and dance - this takes you to the drama site
by mistake.
I have changed the link in the associated HTML coding but
this appears to have made absolutely no difference to where the
link navigates to.
Anyone provide any thoughts?
Graham

Graham, after a quick inspection of the code, I notice that
page points to
/curriculium_drama.html, is there a /curriculium_dance.html
page?

What do I do to fix a "broken link" in iDVD?

What do I do to fix a "broken link" in iDVD?

I am having this problem, too, but only with movies made prior to 2012. When I attempt to navigate to and select the audio and or the video file it gives me a path (users/myname/desktop/moviename.iMovieProject/Shared Movies/Video) find file takes me to my hard drive. At that point, I go into Users, find thhouse with my name (the only user), go to desktop and cannot find moviename.iMovieProject. If I just try to find the file by clicking find file it searches and the wheel never stops.
I know that iDVD is no longer supported, but I have a feeling that everything is still here, I just cannot locate the necessary parts....
