Server Issues with linked files

When I'm working in an Illustrator CS5 document that is saved on a NetDisk 20TB server so mutlipule people can access that document. The document is constantly asking me do I want to update the links every two minutes, but I haven't modified the linked files for this to happen. Does anyone know what could I do abould about this, or is there a server setting I need to change? Can anyone offer advice about this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Illustrator isn't notified of errors during network traffic. So it may happen, that Illustrator thinks your file is saved, while in fact it is not. There's a technote on the subject and very often when files are corrupt, they were saved on networked drives.
I know that it's practical and for many people it works without problems, but I'm just saying ... you should double check anything and be very careful.

Issues with linked files, should I RAID?

So, my first Mac (which was a hand me down) had the two drives RAIDed. But when I was ordering my new mac the guys at mac seemed opposed to the notion of doing this. Now I find that I have difficulty working in some programs, like Adobe InDesign. The program can't find links on the second drive. The tech support at mac suggested RAIDing the drives might be a solution, but only as a last resort (they told me to call Adobe). When I talked with Adobe they said it was a Mac issue, since I was having similar difficulties with other software (non-Mac, non-adobe). So is this a format issue? I mean did I miss a step and my second drive isn't formated properly? Has anyone else had this sort of issue (or do you know anything about this issue)? Both Mac and Adobe told me they hadn't heard of this issue before. I can't imagine I am alone in the world on this one. But I am willing to accept that I have done something wrong (or not done something) to incur the wrath of my software. Thanks for any advisement.

No I have not checked for where my scratch volume is located. I don't know how. I am not entirely certain what that means.
I do work with large files, just about everything I do is in an Adobe program. Performance (as far as speed, I have 8GB RAM) is not an issue.
When you say "seems like it wasn't installed properly" do you mean when the guys put it together they didn't get it in right/ damaged in shipping, or do mean when I set up applications, preferences, etc. I made some error? I only have 2 drives, 350GB, and 750 GB. When I was building (I mean telling the Mac guy what I thought I wanted and asking his recommendations) this machine he told me that Adobe software has trouble utilizing more than 2 Drives.
So perhaps the ownership is wrong, but I don't really know how to work toward change on this issue. If you have any suggestions I would really appreciate it.

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Links should not create any problems in Keynote. If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
Try this repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
4
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
5
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
6
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
7
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
let us know if this helped

A serious issue with excel file read in ODI

hi gurus,
Issue with excel file read is that we can read only one file by setting the path from ODBC Data Source Administrator-->System DNS -->Select Work book
what i want to read the dynamic path(Every time I cant go back and set the Work book to select the excel file..
So i came up with a solution to write a Vbscript that convert the excel to csv my problem got solved for dynamic paths the script is as follow:
Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments
For I = 0 to objArgs.Count - 1
FullName = objArgs(I)
FileName = Left(objArgs(I), InstrRev(objArgs(I), ".") )
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.application")
set objExcelBook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(FullName)
objExcel.application.visible=false
objExcel.application.displayalerts=false
objExcelBook.SaveAs FileName & "csv",23
objExcel.Application.Quit
objExcel.Quit
Set objExcel = Nothing
set objExcelBook = Nothing
Next
Now this script convert the xls file to csv with comma seprated values
e.g in excel sheet if data is ABC XYZ PQR
csv will come with ABC,XYZ,PQR
here the delimiter is , i want the delimiter as pipe | who's ascii code is 124
but if i change 23 with 124 its not working i getting the error cannot save as...
can anyone tell me that what should be the correct code for pipe
so that the output is ABC|XYZ|PQR
AS WE CAN USE THE SCRIPTS IN TOOLS

I dont have the answer for your question but i have different approach in handling multiple Excel File.
Step 1. Copy a sample source Excel File and Call it Final.xls .
Step 2. Map this Final.xls to DSN and in Topology call this Final.xls
Step 3. Do the Reversing and Map and test the Interface . Once its done.
Step 4. Create a Package and using a http://odiexperts.com/?p=1426 get the list of all the Excel File
Step 5 . Using this http://odiexperts.com/?p=273 create a Loop to Read the Excel File name
Step 6 . Copy using OdiFileCopy to Final.xls and run your interface .
Step 7. Increment the Loop and copy your next File for Final and run the interface
Step 8 . Finally you will be able to read all the Excel File .
Step 9 . Delete the source file [ Optional ]
Hope this helps.

Problems working with linked files in illustrator

Hi everyone, i hope you can help me with this doubt that had given me problems since I started using illustrator. I'm using linked files in illustrator because i'm able to modify the files later, as I do in InDesign too, but in both cases I had have a lot of problems with the links, I don't know if i'm doing something bad, but this is what I do: I create a folder where I place my file (illustrator or InDesign) and the files that should be linked. Whit this i'm expecting of it to work like an html where the links works while they are in the folder, no matter if you move the folder, the links keeps working on the HTML.
But I have noticed that it doesn't work in the same way, because, I had have cases when the links work perfectly, but then i format my computer (Mac) and after that, I open my files againg but the links don't work already. I have exactly the same problem with my coworker, because im trying to edit a file with linked files since the place where it is in the other computer, obviously it opens perfectly there, but in my computer it asked to repair the links, so I select to repair automatically but I ask me to does it manually... So this is getting me tired, because I must repair the links here in my computer to work on it, and when for it get finished, my coworker should repair the links again, and this is going to be always we share files or i format my computer. It is important to mention that my coworker and me use mac with leopard and the same version of adobe (CS4).
So, as I said before, i dont knoe if my method is incorrect, should I do something different? any option to activate? or program that I should use? because I have herd a lot of Adobe Bridge, I don't know if this could have a option that could help me.
I hope finally somebody can help me with this doubt, because im sure that I'm not the only one having thie problem.
Thanks for your help

Hi. I am also experiencing this very annoying problem. Currently using version CS2, but this problem dates back to version 9. I check the box to link a tif file, not embed it, in Illustrator. All is well until I save and reopen the file. Suddenly the file is embedded. No other changes have been made to the folders or anything else. It just embeds itself and cannot be linked again.
So far, I conclude that something in the file itself has corrupted, because it is not possible to place a new file and have it link correctly again. So if I anticipate more changes, I create a new file.
Notice the upper left corner of the top toolbar. If you click on a file that has embedded itself, the file will be identified as "Group" instead of "linked file."
I've tried all kinds of things, like trying to ungroup it, trying to release a clipping mask, and so forth, to see what went wrong. Have not figured it out.

I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

I would first of all trash the preference file for InDesign, make sure the application is closed then find the prefs in
/Users/USER NAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign and just throw the entire folder away, it will generate a new one after you launch InDesign again.
Now launch InDesign and see if the problems are resolved.
If not I would repair your permissions on your hard drive wih disk utility, and if that fails then di-install InDesign and re-install that single application.
Let me know if any of these suggestions work for you
I will be checking my email although you might have to wait for a response as I will be taking a microlight flight over the Victoria Falls tomorrow. Yay can hardly wait.

Issue with Sender File FCC

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with Sender File FCC Adapter. The file being picked is of type TXT and it is tab seperated. The first line contains the field names and from next line onwards we have values for those fields.
The field names and field values are tab seperated. Even inserting a single letter in some field value manually disrupts the whole setup & alignment of the TXT file and the Sender File CC is unable to pick up the file from the shared folder. If the first file is errorenous and after that a correct TXT file is posted, it fails to pick up the correct file as it is trying to pick the errorenous file first.
The Error thrown is :
"Conversion of file content to XML failed at position 0: java.lang.Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 2 according to structure 'ABCD':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration / structure 'ABCD.': More elements in file csv structure than field names specified!"
I have two questions:
1. Is there a way to handle such a scenario? For e.g., the errornous TXT file gets picked but throws error in PI.
2. Is there an alternative that the sender FCC channel picks up the correct files and filter out the errorneous ones ? ?
Thanks,
Arkesh

Hi Arkesh,
I think you are passing more number of fields than expected. Please check paramters defined and send the data accordingly.
In the processing parameters tab of sender file adapter, you have an option called Archive faulty source files, below to that you would have option to enter the " Directory for Archiving files with Errors".
I hope this helps you....
Thanks,

Issues with RAW files from my 7D

I have Aperture 1.5.6 on my computer and the software updater says that is the current version. I shoot with a 20D and a 7D. I upload my raw files to Aperture and edit them from there and then process for a jpeg. However, every time I upload a raw file from my 7D I get the following message when I click on it to edit it: Unsupported Image format.
Any words of advice, other than just buy Aperture 3??

I have Aperture 2.X and had zero issues with RAW files from a 7D, so I think the problem is you are on 1.X. Converting to DNG first was a good suggestion if you don't want to purchase 3.X. Yet another reason to hate proprietary raw image file formats.......

Help with linked files/ compound paths please

Hi - I am working with an illustrator file from another designer which has a compound path with linked files - when you link a new file the image is automatically resized and clipped to the path. I am able to edit it but i want to make my own from scratch and can't figure it out. I'm working with Illustrator CS6. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi Steve - thanks for the reply - my question was a bit vague as I wasn't entirely sure what I was working with but I think your point about the new linked image scaling to the same size as the existing file has helped me understand it a bit more. What I want to know how to do is to make an entirely new file with a clipping mask that I then link an image to. I made a file with a clipping mask on the page and then chose file>place but the image I import is not being clipped (I ticked the link option when importing it) I see it working with the existing file I'm working with but I need to know how to make a new one myself.
If this makes it clearer here's what I want to do ...
I am making a banner, I have 3 flat jpegs of t-shirts that I want to place on the banner without their white background. I made a clipping mask the same shape as the outline of the t-shirt and now I want to import the jpeg so it is a linked file and is clipped by the clipping mask and so I can use it in future to import different t-shirt image in without scaling and clipping them each time.
REally appreciate your help, thanks.

Sharpening issues with RAW files

Hi,
I have downloaded lightroom 5 as a one month trial and have been playing with the program. I am not an experienced user and are wondering if I am doing something wrong, have wrong settings applied or if it is the known sharpening bug that messes with my photos. I know that sharpening and noise reduction includes a bug that does not let you export pictures 1/3 of original size with sharpening/noise intact. However, in my case, this also happens with RAW files. I do not crop or change size/resolution to any of the photos, but the sharpening is still not working. Photos look great in develop mode, but when I click on library mode to export them, all sharpening disappears!
Is this the same bug previously reportered "only for pictures 1/3 of original size", or do I have some strange settings applied?
I was loving lightroom 5 up until I noticed this, and now I am reluctant to buy the product...
I'd be greatful if anyone has any input on this!
Thanks in advance

DW CS5 -- Issues with uploading files to server

Hi everyone -- I recently took over control of a website that hasn't been updated in years. I am in charge of redesigning the site, but need to keep what we have up-to-date until the new site is ready to roll out. I received the FTP info for the server and got site files into local folders so I can make changes. I've made changes to one file (index.html) and am trying to put that file back onto the server; but in the file transfer process, the dependent files do not get uploaded (I get a message saying "'fileName' - same - not transferred"). The one file that I have changed, and Dreamweaver says has been uploaded, is not updating on the web. I checked the file on both my local and remote view and both reflect the changes I have made -- just not the actual site on the web.
I'm sure that's a little confusing, so I'll try to summarize (with bulletts!):
I have correct FTP info to server
I downloaded site files from server to local folders
I edited index page, and put the file to the server
Dreamweaver indicates that the file has been successfully uploaded
Local view shows edits I have made
Remote view shows edits I have made
Other dependent files have not been uploaded ("'fileName' - same - not transferred" error message)
Actual website does not reflect changes made to index page
What am I doing wrong????
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

Filezilla is a free, open source FTP client. It's a standard desktop application. An FTP client connects to a server using the File Transfer Protocol and allows you to transfer files up to the server (upload) or download files from the server (download).
Why use a separate FTP client rather then the FTP functionality built-in to Dreamweaver? Because, in my experience, it works better the Dreamweaver's sometimes flakey FTP functionality and it's easier to troubleshoot FTP issues.
In Firefox, to clear the cache, go to Tools -> Advanced -> Click Network Tab -> Click "Clear Now" button. Hit F5 to refresh the page and see what changes (if caching was the issue). If nothing changes then for some reason your files are not being uploaded properly to the server. In that case I'd check to make sure you're loading your files to the correct directory on the server (usually a folder called "httdocs" or "www" - check with your hosting company to amke sure).
Hope this helps.
