RH8 has broken all links to all photos on top of corrupting our manual.

Thousands of links to every photo in our entire book are gone.  Topics are a few lines long rather than 10 to 20 instruction steps.  I am looking for a backup now.  I am considering rolling back to RH7.  We had no problem with RH7.  We will call Adobe for support at this point.  Just when we felt like we were getting ahead, we actually opened our topics just to find a little text one photo box that is empty and ... NOTHING.  I was wondering why the project zipped up to 220Mb when it should be 550Mb.  All of the photos are in the folder, just no links.  This is the worst possible thing at a critical moment.  Unbelievable.
Great, just great.    errr

We may have a solution to the problem. 
We moved our project to another computer with RH802. Took a good version of the .apj file that previously damaged and placed in into the correct location in the project.  This version has a valid rhvariable.apj file which contains my 800+ global variables.  We also left the .cpd file intact and opened the project in 8.0.2 and it seems to be working.
I am currently taking our working 8.0.1 project out of version control (a 2 hour process over the VPN/internet).  Brutal.  Then we are going to put this 8.0.2 version into version control.  We both will apply the 8.02 update.  Then pull new copies of the project from version control.  This should give us both working versions of the 8.0.2 project.
Knowing what the all of the various files do makes it a lot easier to understand why our project was killed by the update and how to repair.  Luckily we had working versions of the .apj files that we could cut and past the important content to the new file.
Your page was helpful and got us looking in the right direction but it was a very painful process and this whole adventure cost us valuable days at a critical moment.  We are going to take a much more cautious approach to future updates from Adobe.  If they come at a non critical time, we will probably wait until we have time to recover from any problems.  Otherwise, we will have to discuss, look at the forum for problems others are having with the update (if any), and then weigh the advantages to taking the update.  I hope we don't have to go through this type of fire drill again.
I appreciate your attention to our problem and willingness to help. 
I will make a final reply once we get this working in RSC.
Thanks

  • Firefox has broken the link that creates menu / task bars

    firefox tells me it has broken the link that creates task / menu bars. I've uninstalled & reinstalled. Everytime I built new task bars through internet, Firefox crashes on me. Help please.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • How stop FF31 from opening new window? I want to open all links in new tab at top of page.

    I think the following, quote below, from the help page is my problem.
    I have this one website I use that when I click on a link within the website it is opening a new window with the tab at the bottom. Also, when this happens, I am losing the orange FireFox rectangle, bookmarks and navigation options. How can I set FF31 so that the link opens in a new tab and I keep all my options? I am using Classic Theme Restorer 1.2.3. I also notice that in the new window I lose the ability to use some of the addons.
    I have two laptops and both are running FF31 and W7. One of them is working perfectly and the other is having this problem. As far as I can tell they are both set up the same. The only difference is that when I upgraded to FF31 they both had difference older versions of FireFox. I also read in the help forum that maybe I need to go back to FireFox 28 to accomplish what I am trying to accomplish.
    I noticed that when I go under about:config that the version of FF that is not working has fewer available options versus the version that is working. An example would be that the working version has "browser.tabs.onTop" where on the other laptop this is missing.
    >>>Open new windows in a new tab instead: This option controls whether links from other applications or from web pages which request to open them in new windows are opened in a new window or a new tab in the most recent window.
    Note: If you have chosen to open pages in new tabs, Firefox will ignore this option and will open a new window from a link if the page author specified that the new window should have a specific size, because some pages can only be displayed correctly at a specific size.<<<
    Thank you in advance for any help,
    yeto

    You can override how links are opened via the browser.link.open_newwindow.override pref.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
    *1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
    Use this for links opened via JavaScript.

  • 8.0.1 has broken Content Link in Piano Roll Editor

    Logic 8.0.1 has managed to break Content Link in Piano Roll Editor... Select a MIDI region in Arrange, choose a Screenset for Piano Roll and, with Link active, you'll see the contents for the selected MIDI region. From that point on though, you'll only ever see the contents of that first selection, no matter what other MIDI region is selected. Logic can be forced to reveal the contents of another MIDI region by double-clicking or Option-double-clicking but it's hardly ideal; not when your workflow for the past ten years has been screenset based.
    That bug alone is enough for me to go straight back to 8.0
    Nice one Apple.

    Sorry Captain - you're quite right. When changing screensets, the link is lost.
    In Logic 7 the default behaviour is what you want - screensets follow the selected region. This does appear to be broken in 8.0.1
    Perhaps some people would prefer this - so that you could have screensets that have Show Contents link mode on for different regions, for example. The best solution would be to have a Preference where one could choose the option one prefers.

  • IPhoto has lost the link to the photo library

    When I open iPhoto, it not longer pulls in my photo library.  I have a 2010 13 inch MacBook running OS X Lion 10.7.5 and iPhoto 9.4.3.  I don't know what caused it; I have done no recent updates.  I have backed up everything on a separate hard drive and also have a time machine backup.
    I can tell that my photos are still on the computer because of the space that is taken up, but when I try to open photo library, it won't open.  Please help, too many photos that I don't want to lose.

    Download and use  Find Any File  to search for a file named "Library6.iPhoto".  It's a file that is in every iPhoto library.  FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't, like invisible folders, system folders and packages.  If your library is somewhere on the hard drive FAF will find it.

    Buy yourself a backup drive. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. The exception is purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • Can some one translate these instructions D-Link DI-524: installation as wireless HUB/Bridge   General  ON ALL TYPES OF ROUTERS DHCP SERVER HAS TO BE DISABLED ON ALL TYPES OF ROUTERS UPnP ALSO HAS TO BE DISABLED OTHERWISE YOU CAN SEVERELY HINDER OTHER USE

    D-Link DI-524: installation as wireless HUB/Bridge
    General
    ON ALL TYPES OF ROUTERS DHCP SERVER HAS TO BE DISABLED
    ON ALL TYPES OF ROUTERS UPnP ALSO HAS TO BE DISABLED
    OTHERWISE YOU CAN SEVERELY HINDER OTHER USERS IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD!
    Practical example: D-Link DI-524
    The DI-524 is a wireless router.Although the manufacturer doesn't mention this, you can also install this device as a wireless hub.Of course this is not supported by the manufacturer. Therefor you have nowhere to go in case of any problems Plug in the power cord of the DI-524. Do not yet connect the network cable!Search for existing wireless networks with your computer. Connect with the router.This can for example be done like this:
    Click the start-button (at the bottom in the left corner of your screen).
    Go to control panel
    Go to internet connections (you may have to choose classic representation first)
    You can now see your wireless network card, among other things. Right-click and 'View available Wireless networks'.
    Connect to the router. In most cases the router will be called 'default'.Check your IP-address: you get an IP address from the DI-524
    Go to the start-button
    Go to 'Run'
    Type 'cmd' and press enter
    type 'ipconfig' and press enter
    your IP address starts with 192.
    Surf to your router with your regular browser. For this you need the address and a password, which you can find in the documentation.
    In this case the address is 192.168.0.1
    Now you must secure the router. For this it is best to use WPA-PSK
    Your key is a randomly chosen sentence. Don't make this sentence too short.
    Warning: Case sensitive!
    You cannot reach the router anymore now.
    Go back to your network card via "make connection". Search for your wireless network again and make a new connection
    You are asked for a key. Supply this key the way you configured it in your router.
    Surf back to the router.
    Disable the DHCP server.
    !! YOU HAVE TO DISABLE UPnP ON ALL TYPES OF ROUTERS
    OTHERWISE YOU CAN SEVERELY HINDER OTHER USERS IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD!
    for this, go to Tools, Misc and switch off UPnP
    Save these settings.
    If you do not have a D-link router, look up in the manual or somewhere else where you can disable UPnP
    Now you cannot reach the router anymore again.
    It is only from this moment that you can connect the router to the modem.
    Important: Use one of the 4 LAN ports. Never use the WAN port!
    Go to your network card via the control panel. Right-click and "Repair"
    Now you should get an IP-address in the range of 10.nnn.nnn.nnn
    If you still don't have 192... you've made an error. The DI-524 still functions as a router and this is not allowed!

    There are no Mac based instructions. The router is accessed and adjusted the same way whether you are using a Mac OS X, Windows or Linux. As noted in the other post it is done through your web browser which works the same from any computer. Even a Chrome Book.

    my ipod has broken. a friend has given me her ipod. but how do i get to use as mine. i can erase her songs and i have mine all on my pc in itunes. help me please friends??

    It appears that something happened to yur computer/iTunes files.  It happens sometimes.  To recovery:
    - Import the old music into the current iTunes library
    - Make sure all the apps are also in the library
    - If in the USA and therplaces where iCloud has benn released you can redownload most iTunes puchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - You can always redownload apps at no additional cost as long as you are singned into the same iTunes account the originally purchased them.
    - After all the suff in in the iTunes library, make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes. 
    - Restore the iPod from backup and restore as necessary.

  • My phone has been restored using iTunes.  All of my previous photo are not downloaded on my phone and I'm unable t delete - no trash bin.

    My phone has been restored using iTunes.  All of my previous photo are downloaded. I'm unable to delete the photos from the phone - no trash bin.  It has utilized all my storage and I'm unable to use any of my apps.

    Hello there, Jeanne2919.
    There is a great Knowledge Base article that is right up your alley:
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    Specifically this section:
    To delete synced photos and videos
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.
    To delete Camera Roll photos and videos
    There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
    Import the Camera Roll to your computer, choosing to delete items after import.
    or
    Delete photos and videos from your device manually. Open the Photos application, open the Camera Roll, tap the Action button, tap each photo to select it, and tap the Delete button.
    Note: For photos and videos you want to save for later, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,

    There's only one thing you can do: make an appointment with Apple genius at the Apple retail store for a out of warranty replacement.

    if i am to sync my phone to a different computer and it has been backed up will i be able to get all my info back (photos, contacts, etc)??

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

    my iphones broken and i'm getting a new one today, i haven't synced this one with itunes, is all my data backed up on icloud? so i can access all my contacts and photos through icloud on the new device?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you have been previously using iCloud with your old phone, then when you login to your iCloud account with your new phone all the data from the services you were using will be added to your new phone.

    I am just learning Lightroom 5. Noticed very recently that 'Photo is Missing' has come up against virtually all my files over all my folders/subfolders. That said, using Finder on my MAC I can see thumnails of ALL my images which sit within my Pictures Folder. Equallly on my back-up on the Mac's Time Machine all versions of same images are present. Any solutions?

    It means that the photos have been moved or renamed or deleted outside of Lightroom. (Hint: don't do that)
