The file (null) is missing appears in map box

In the map box , there are two frames containing red x's . The first because no media has yet been added , the second with the cursor-activated nessage "The file (null) is missing" . Is this a problem ???

It's OK
I've sorted it.
It only happens when I double click a file to open it. If I open through iDVD it is fine

I am using Numbers app for the ipad and it has been working absolutely fine but now, when I want to email a spreadsheet as a PDF via the 'share and print' option, the file now doesn't appear as an attachment to the recipient. Any ideas please?

Hi mafiose15,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
You can find the instructions in this article:

"Ipod Cannot Be Updated, The File Required Is Missing" - Can someone help?

I just got this error today and its bugging me.
Whenever I try to update my ipod it gives me a new window saying "IPOD (name) cannot be updated, the file required is missing."
ummm I thought maybe if i restored my ipod the file would be restored too but that didnt work....
After i restored it, the itunes library updated my ipod with all my original playlists and videos, but now when i try to update it and sync my pictures to it or create new playlists, it gives me that message.
Can anyone give me some advice on what i can do to fix this problem? i do have the iTunes 7.01 my ipod is the 60G Ipod Video (White)
Thanks for your help guys, i really need it.

I just dealt with the same problem. None of the answers people gave to the problem worked!
Whatever it is that you're trying to put into your iPod... make sure that the file is located in your "My Music" file first.
Basically, when you get that message double check and if what you selected isn't in "My Music" drag and drop into it and try again.
I hope that helped!
I know... so frustrating.

How to fix file when it says, "Cannot open file " ". Adobe Indesign does not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file may be missing, or file may be open in another application." It worked one second, I saved and closed the file, then tried to reopen and now it won't work. I am using Adobe InDesign CS5. It is the only version on my comp. I have tried opening on another comp & copying the file – same error comes up. PLEASE HELP

First check the version of the document with Jongware's script "Identify.jsx" (ExtendScript/JavaScript).
You can find it here:
[Ann] Identify Your InDesign File
If it is CS 5.5 or above, you need someone to open it in the version the script says and export an IDML representation from that. Another way would be to install a 30days version of CS6 or above (CC) and do it yourself.
In regards of the script showing a result for InDesign files higher than CS6:
CS7 = CC v9
CS8 = CC v10 = CC-2014 or CC2014.1

Those are the Navigation Toolbar and the Menu Bar, respectively.
*Be sure Navigation Toolbar is checked (checked=displayed; unchecked=not displayed). If un-checked, click on it to place a check mark.
*Be sure Menu Bar is checked. (checked=displayed; unchecked=not displayed). If un-checked, click on it to place a check mark.

Missing menu items in the 'File' menu? Missing 'Place..' option?

Hello there!
I use photoshop everyday to edit pictures and thumbnails for Youtube and videos, but recently I've noticed that the 'Place' option from the File Menu has gone missing? I've checked to see if I might have accidentally hidden the visibility of 'Place' within the File Menu, but it doesn't even appear in the Hidden Menu settings? I have no idea how this happened, but I think it may be a plugin issue, because I cannot find one trace of it within the Photoshop application! Any help would be fantastic!
Thank you!

Have a read of this: Photoshop CC 14.2 update – Linked Smart Objects
Glad I could help.

Why are photoshop icons showing up as color bars in AE6 even though the files are not missing?

I have imported the file numerous times, they actually show up in After Effects. If I render it renders fine, however the icons next to the photoshop files show up as color bars.
Can anyone hep me figure this out?

Thanks for replying... Yes everything works fine but the project panel icons and layer icons appear as color bars. Weird! I'm using CS6 and I'm on a MAC PRO OS X 10.8.5. I attached a screen grab

HT4889 I just complete a migration from my Mac Book Pro to my new Mac Book Pro but none of the files on my desktop appear anywhere. Suggestions please.

I have just completed a lengthy migration of all my files from an old Mac Book Pro to my new Mac Book Pro and I find that none of my files on my desktop have been transferred. So, I do not have the confidence that all my files have been transferred. What did I do wrong and what can I do to fix this matter. Sugggestions welcome. Thanks

Open the Users folder, drag the migrated home folder to the desktop, provide your administrator password, and retrieve the files from there. If desired, you can then use the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences to delete the migrated account. This can be done in reverse if you only want the migrated account.

Finder changes the file name in Save/Save As dialogue box

Whenever I save or save as a file, the dialogue box opens, but when I make the file list active when using a mouse, the file name I click to changes the file name I am saving. I simply want to activate the file list window so I can find the right folder. For example if I am looking for a folder called "Receipts" I want to be able to click on the file list window to activate it and then type the first 2 letters of the folder-- "re" and then save the file in that folder. The finder keeps changing the name of the current file whenever I click on one of the "greyed-out" file names? This doesn't make sense unless of course I want to replace that file.
Is there a shortcut that makes the file list window in the dialogue box active while in the SAVE/SAVE AS dialogue box??

Yes, this example of horrible UI design has been a problem since "Panther". It illustrates what happens when you try to copy UI behaviour from another OS, do it poorly, and end up with a mess. In 10.3 and 10.4, the combination of the renaming behaviour with the default "replace" selection in the resulting save can result in data loss.
Compared to the old Mac OS where a tab would flip the focus between the text field for the file name and the file browser, the current behaviour either doesn't allow enough keyboard access to controls, or with "full access" enabled, too many to cycle through easily. The inability to switch focus to the file browser using the mouse (depending on the view) is a horrible productivity loss. Having to recheck the filename before saving is a horrible productivity loss. Since there is no "undo" for the renaming in most files, having to retype the name is again, a horrible productivity loss.
If they had done it right (a simple change, like requiring a modifier to rename), users would probably welcome the "rename" feature as a useful addition. Instead, it has the feel of something a junior Windows-trained programmer slipped in past their supervisor.
In short, I am not aware of any workaround or hack to avoid this "renaming" behaviour. I doubt it will do any good since people have been doing so since "Panther", but you could try submitting feedback:

I'm using my iPod classic as hard drive to transfer the music to my reinstalled computer but the file "iTunes" is missing. Where is it and how can I get it back?

I had a virus on my Windows Vista PC so I had to reinstall the whole system. With this I also got an upgrade to Windows 7. Now I want to use the iPod classic to put the music back on the PC. According to the explanations on Apple support you have to drag the iTunes file on the iPod to the My Music file. Unfortunately there is no iTunes file on the iPod. It does work fine though and I can listen to all the music. I have to say that before I deleted the hard drive fro the PC I forgot to switch the iPod to manual sync. It was psooible though to do that with the new installed iTunes without erasing the music on the iPod. Can anybody help? I really wouldn't like to loose the countings and playlists.
Thank you

Hi,
Not sure if this is going to any help or given your particular situation...
But thought you may like to see it anyway...
Re-create iTunes Library and Playlists
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
It's a pity you don't mention having a Backup of your Hard Drive...

HT1473 my itunes library isn't playing all of my music how do i get it to recognize the files that are missing?

My computer crashed and I backed up the computer before replacing the hard drive. Once the hard drive was replaced, I tried to go back and restore my programs, however not all of my music is coming over properly. How do I get Itunes to recognize the music? It is all in the same place.

Press Ctrl-B to enable the menu bar, you'll then have File > Add Folder to Library... available. You can also copy existing media to your iTunes library by copying it to the Automatically Add to iTunes folder within iTunes' folder hierarchy.
To recover playlists, etc. you need to retrieve the iTunes database (iTunes Libarary.itl) from your old computer - a complete backup of an iTunes library includes this as well as your media files. Ideally, you should have everything under a common folder - C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes if you're using the default location, X:\iTunes (where "X" is any drive letter) if you have the library on another drive. The ideal structure is like this:
so that you can create a backup of the iTunes folder and everything you need - either to move your library to another computer, or to create/maintain a regular backup against PC/disc failures - is in one place.
If you did backup and restore your iTunes Library.itl file via Carbonite, or can access and copy it from your old PC, then make sure its in the correct location with respect to your media files, hold down SHIFT when you start iTunes, and when you get this prompt:
click on Choose Library..., navigate to the folder containing your library, select the iTunes Library.itl file (which may just show as "iTunes Library" if Windows is set to not show file extensions) and click Open.

After I write an e-mail the file menu does not appear that allows me to send the message

This menu has always been there and suddenly disappeared and I can't figure out how to retrieve it

well perhaps you need to select menu bar as well as mail toolbar, and do it while in the compose window.

The file name img 1234 is missing or offline is on all images on screen

Hi Victoria, thankyou for the reply to my problem. This issue only seems to arisen since the last lightroom update.
When I click on ? message is IMG 1311 JPG. Could not be used because the original file could not be found, would you like to locate it? Then shows previous location.
This is the file location when I open the file name box, C:\Users\Peter viking\Pictures\2012-07-27, Cooma Monaro RSL collection of objects storage\2012-07-25, Cooma Monaro RSL collection of objects display\Cooma Monaro RSL collection of objects 066.jpg. this is not the right location for the image. When I put in the location of previous location listed, error message says pathway could not be found.
I have a 6 month old PC. Hope you can help this problem has come from nowhere.
Regards
Peter…
