Transfered Local files disappear when put in a different folder on remote server

Hello everybody,
I know this question is kinda asked a lot, but I cant seem to find the right answer that relates to my problem.
I am trying to "put" my local files on my remote server. I managed to get two files in the right folder on my remote server.
But now every single time I put one of the other local files on the remote server, it comes in the main folder (that works fine). I then have to drag it to the right sub-folder in
order for my website to work. When I drag these files into this sub-folder, they disappear on the remote server.
I keep putting the local files in the remote server and this works, but putting them in the sub-folder of the remote server doesnt work.
Does anybody know what the problem could be?
I try uploading from the hosting website, but my website doesnt work, I checked all the files, the links everything works. Therefore I am now trying it through dreamweaver.
Also I check the remote server online and the two files that did work, showed up there, so its all connected fine.. :s
Im using Dreamweaver CS5.5
Any help would be great, I need to get this website uploaded tomorrow for my uni assignment, also if somebody knows a good WORKING freehosting website, please let me know
Thanks,
Maartje

Yeah the folder on the remote server is htdocs , I am putting all the files in the htdocs folders, otherwise it says my website doesnt work.
Your remote site is not properly defined. Put "htdocs" into the Root Directory: field of the Remote server's definition. Now your files will always upload to the correct location.
Does the order of the files need to be the same too?
No. They are ordered in DW in the way that you have specified by clicking on the associated column headers.

Iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i access these files?

iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i retrieve these files? Time machine is not opening my backup files on an external Lacie HD.

Apple keeps books for a short time (used to be 40 days. I've not seen a recent time frame)
What version did you have?
Books do nor exist except in the iPhoto database so you can not "find" a book vista TM. You restore a previous library (be sure NOT to overwrite your current library) and switch to it

An issue whereby Photoshop .PSD files disappear when saved to a network file share

It has been reported and reproduced by Support, an issue whereby Photoshop .PSD files disappear when they’re saved to a network file share.
Upon initial investigations Support have observed the following behaviour when saving a Photoshop file.
The document is initially saved as a new file on the file share.
The original .PSD file is deleted on the file share.
The newly created file is renamed to the same name as the original file.
An issue often arises when steps 1 and 2 complete however step 3 fails. When a file is reported by users as having disappeared, the new file created in step 1 can be renamed from .00_ to the original *.PSD file name on the server as the *.00_ files are normally hidden by the desktop operating system. This allows people to see and open the file from both PC’s and MAC’s using AFP and SMB protocols.
A related issue often reported by users is that they receive an error message “Could not save as” when trying to save a .PSD file. Troubleshooting the issue confirms that the user is able to save the file if they perform a “Save As” operation in Photoshop.
From the reported problems and observations there is clearly an issue with how Photoshop performs a file save operation further exacerbated by the fact the process doesn’t fail safely.

Sounds like you're hitting one of the known MacOS filesystem bugs - worst when working with SMB volumes.
Apple knows about this, and we are pursuing workarounds to the OS bugs.
Yeah, if you value your files, don't save directly to servers, especially on MacOS.

DIV tags disappear when put over swf file background

I am working on a site which has a swf movie as a background
which fills the browser window(SWFobject). When I place DIV tags,
which reference a CSS id and contain swf files as well, over the
top (for absolute positioning, etc.) they disappear when previewed
in a browser . Is there a reason that the swfobject always takes on
top position in the browser? Do I need to change something in the
SWFoject javascript file, in the code or within either the CSS file
or the dreamweaver HTML code? Here is a link to a site that is very
similar to what I am working on.
http://www.pronghornclub.com
Any help would be most appreciated.

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so
to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and
Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There
is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but
if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can
use the Flash
wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this
properly!).

How to get access to the local file system when running with Web Start

I'm trying to create a JavaFX app that reads and writes image files to the local file system. Unfortunately, when I run it using the JNLP file that NetBeans generates, I get access permission errors when I try to create an Image object from a .png file.
Is there any way to make this work in Netbeans? I assume I need to sign the jar or something? I tried turning "Enable Web Start" on in the application settings, and "self-sign by generated key", but that made it so the app wouldn't launch at all using the JNLP file.

Same as usual as with any other web start app : sign the app or modify the policies of the local JRE. Better sign the app with a temp certificate.
As for the 2nd error (signed app does not launch), I have no idea as I haven't tried using JWS with FX 2.0 yet. Try to activate console and loggin in Java's control panel options (in W7, JWS logs are in c:\users\<userid>\appdata\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\log) and see if anything appear here.
Anyway JWS errors are notoriously not easy to figure out and the whole technology in itself is temperamental. Find the tool named JaNeLA on the web it will help you analyze syntax error in your JNLP (though it is not aware of the new syntax introduced for FX 2.0 and may produce lots of errors on those) and head to the JWS forum (Java Web Start & JNLP Andrew Thompson who dwells over there is the author of JaNeLA).

Files disappear when creating a new folder

I'm new to mac....got a macbook this week. I'm in Iraq so I have very limited access to anything. No internet for my mac at the moment...so I can't update even if there are ones. I assume I have the currenct version of everything though. The question...
While switching over my files I decided to reorganize them. I'm working on my external HD and creating many new folders for all my files. On numerous occasions now (4) I have created a new file the standard way...right click>new>file...then named it. On these occasions I have done this it has renamed the previous file I had worked in (even though it was not selected) and then the contents of the file disappeared. This leaves me with the new file I created and another identical file of the same name...now with nothing in it. Some of my files I have backed up, but the last one deleted many videos that I didn't. Happens randomly at no particular time. If I select the file and view its contents often it will briefly change its name back to the original name, but still nothing in it. Then next selection of anything will switch it back. Have not been able to fine the files anywhere. Tired of losing my files. Any ideas??? Thanks.

Hi Craig and Welcome to Apple Discussions....
First of all, thank you for all you are doing. It's so appreciated! Just be safe and come home soon.
Now... I have a feeling your external hard drive is the culprit. Read here:
Changing the names of items
You can easily change the name of a file, folder, or disk on your computer.
IMPORTANT: To avoid problems using Mac OS X or applications on your computer, don't move or change the names of folders that came with your system (such as the Library folder or your home). You should also not change the names of applications or items associated with specific applications. If you accidentally change the name of an installed item and you experience problems, you can change the name back.
Locate the item you want to rename on your desktop or in a Finder window.
Click the item to select it, then click the name. The name is highlighted and you will be able to edit it.
Type the new name and press Return.
Some document names have a file extension, such as ".txt" or ".jpg." If you change the name of a file and delete the extension, some applications may no longer recognize the file. To ensure the file can be recognized by the application that created it, change only the part of the name that comes before the extension, or open the file using the appropriate application, then save the file with a new name.
You cannot change the name of an item in the Finder window's sidebar. You must locate the item on your desktop or in a Finder window to highlight and change the name.
And more here:
Getting information about files and folders
You can view and modify information about files, applications, and volumes in the Info window. This information can include:
Comments that Spotlight can search on
Who can view and modify the item.
The applications that can open it.
Metadata that describes a file's contents and how it was created. For example, a photo's Info window may contain the picture's dimensions, exposure time, and the make and model of the camera.
To see information for one or more items, select the items and choose File > Get Info. An Info window opens for each selected item.
To see a summary of information about several items, select the items then hold down the Control key as you choose File > Get Summary Info. A window summarizes information on all selected items, including their total size.
To see information about each item as you select it, select one of the items then hold down the Option key as you choose File > Show Inspector. An Inspector window displays information on the selected item. When you select another item, the Inspector's contents are replaced with information on that item.
I realize that's a lot to digest and your time might be limited. This is something that only takes a few minutes and might help immediately.
Go to MacintoshHD/Applications/Utilities and locae Disk Utility. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left and then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Depending on the size of your drive, it should only take a few minutes. When it's finished, Quit Disk Utility from the Menu.
Here's how to find out exactly which Mac OS you are running. Click the Apple logo top left of your screen then click, About This Mac. A pane will open. Just under "Mac OS X" will be the version number. ie., 10.4.x
Reboot your MacBook and see if this helps.... I'm retired and have time... if you need one on one help e-mail me: [email protected]
It's the least I can do

Why do my pls files disappear when doubleclicked?

Someone asked me how to make an alias of a streaming radio station that they could just click, have it open iTunes and play.
While experimenting I found I could drag the radio station off the iTunes playlist to the desktop and it would create a URL. Doubleclicking the URL usually opened a browser, went to the site and downloaded a .pls file to the desktop. Doubleclicking that file opened iTunes and started playing the station.
Fine, I thought, I'll just rename the .pls file and use that as an alias to quickly get to the station. But alas, the .pls file disappears from the desktop once clicked, even if renamed and/or put into a folder.
I explained what I did to the person who originally asked and they were able to rename the files and not have them disappear on their Mac like mine did. Both of us are using 10.4.11.
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Try showing the import options and make sure the crop option you want to use is one that is not grayed out.

The download for ZEN Touch is at:http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=0&x=32&y=8?I cannot tell for sure whether the latest MediaSource 5 will solve your problem. Regardless of whether it works for you, it is still worth to update your current MediaSource to the latest. You can send me one of the MP3 that you have problem with and I can help to see whether the MP3 file is OK. You can send the MP3 to me at:[email protected]

Why do windows source directory files disappear when their folder is added to iTunes?

I just got a new Windows 8 computer and installed iTunes. I then copied all of my music to my new computer from the old one into a similar \data\music directory organized by artist and album.
On the old computer (XP)when I add a folder from \data\music to itunes the source album music files remain inplace.
On the new computer (W8) when I add a folder from \data\music to itunes the source album music files disappear.
However, although the album directory is empty, the "parent MUSIC directory" hasn't changed in size. Is iTunes encrypting the source files? Itunes Help does have anything on this happening.
How do I access my source files if I want to do something with them?
This is scary stuff. Luckily I still have a copy on my old computer.
Any clarification on this would really be appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric-B

Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
iTunes 11 also adds a Home Videos folder...
Your library is obviously in the newer layout, the designated media folder (red outline) is C:\Data\Music and the option Keep iTunes Media folder organized is enabled, so music goes in C:\Data\Music\Music\<Artist>\<Album> etc.
If you're interested you could probably "normaiize" your library with a few carefully chosen steps...

Photo files disappearing when touched by iPhoto

In my workgroup, a common iPhoto library has been shared by all our users (about three of us) for years, served via AFP by Mac OS X Server 10.3.9.
In the last few weeks, one of our users has reported this same problem: She tries to drag the photo from iPhoto to her desktop, but gets the not permitted cursor. When I go to look at the damage, I see that either the photos are missing from the Library file structure or there is a stub of a file left of about 12K. This is really frightening.
I posted this message originally Oct. 24 without any replies. Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.

I will answer your questions in order.
1. No files were touched in the iPhoto Library folder until I did some investigating, and even then I didn't move anything. Also, as a troubleshooting technique, I rebuilt the library (through iPhoto, of course).
2, 3, & 4. Everyone in the workgroup belongs to the same group, and everyone's NSUmask is set to 2, so every file gets created with permissions 775 (read-write-execute by owner and group, read only by other people) regardless of the program writing it. Naturally, every file and folder in the hierarchy is readable and writable by everyone who needs to.
Thanks for asking!

Save as "web page, complete" .html file disappears when overwriting file with same name

On Mac and PC using various versions of FireFox (including 29.0.1 on Win 7) the following occurs:
"Save Page As" a page with several iFrames in the content. I use "Web page, complete" and name the file.
Close FireFox. The .html file and accompanying folder are saved correctly. Then I open the file in FireFox and make some changes to fields in a form. Then "Save Page As" again and use the same name. It prompts to overwrite the existing file and I click Yes.
Three out of four times the file is no longer there. The folder remains but the .html file is gone. Not in the trash or hidden, just gone.
I know this sounds crazy but I have tested it on about 20 computers (both mac and various windows versions), all with different FF versions and different antivirus. The above scenario happens: always on 1 computer, occasionally (random) on 3, and hasn't been observed yet on the others.
Has anyone encountered this before? Are there any antivirus or malware products that could cause this? Any settings in FF that could? Any thing about this page or frames that could cause it?

I found the solution. Yes, the first time you replace a file it disappears altogether. Just save it again, and it will reappear with the updated date and time code in the directory you chose to save it in. I only wish this were the problem in Firefox v. 30, but that is worse now.

Files disappear when played - ARGH!

I had several dvds converted to play on my ipod. The external hard drive is where I stored them, since my laptop doesn't have the space. itunes advanced properties was set-up for the external drive's use. I opened the H drive movies with itunes and noticed after they had played in itunes, they disappeared from the original folder that I put them in! The "movies" are now somewhere within the itunes library (likely renamed so I'll never find them manually) now but I have no idea why they were moved from the original folder or where the insane program put the files. I CANNOT find the movies to watch it through another program that is not so insanely complicated to use- the movies are now gone!
I had to buy a 250Gb external hard drive to manage the music, since there's not enough room on the computer's hard drive. For some reason, itunes decided to start using my C drive one day, instead of the H drive, originally designated as MY choice (maybe I opened itunes one day without the external hd on?). I noticed the exclamation points on the music and panic!! I started trying to backup music, for fear of losing it. I re-designated the H drive again and did some hacking to backup the songs saved off the ipod and into another backup- then imported the backup folder and lost all play lists as a result. I'm NOW afraid to syc.
How can you backup your files if you don't have control over which drive you designated as the sync or even where the files are placed? Why does itunes remove files from folders when you play them? I've never been so confused by any software in my life as I have with itunes. I'm not able to enjoy the music comfortably and am always in fear of losing what I have. I've turned into a music manager instead of a music lover. The program has a mind of it's own...totally alien to what I want it to do. ARGH! No way I'm ever going to update the software again either. I cannot manage the learning curve on what I've got now, after over a year.

Objects in InDesign files disappear when exported to PDF (CS5.5)

I have some text that was created to outlines, filled and has a drop shadow applied. When I export the document to pdf, part of the text (the fill) disappears, and all I get is the drop shadow. I tried changing to a non-spot color, I tried removing all attributes, and nothing seems to work! I also tried copying that artwork to the clipboard and pasting it into an Illustrator file (says it is too big to fit the pasteboard, which I verified sizes - and it should fit. I tried copying the paths and pasting them in Photoshop as a smart object... no luck either. What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help!

FYI - in the "Adobe InDesign Component Infirmation" dialogue box I learned all kinds of info - are you looking for something in particular? I learned that the document was created in InDesign version 7.0.4.553 (which is what I think I was using before I updated my InDesign earlier today)
There aren't particular obvious signs, no.
Generally at this point the right way to track this down is to work with a copy of the document, and delete pages or objects in the document until you find the cause of the problem. Then look at it closely, perhaps look at the IDML file, or make it available so we can look at it.
It sounds like you have a workaround, but if you have time, it might worth trying to find the real problem.

Files disappear when selected.

I have several MP4 and M4V files on an external MyBook Studio 500 GB hard drive. All but 4 show a small preview. These remaining 4 show the QuickTime logo, but when I select these files, they disappear. If I then click away and then back to this folder, these 4 re-appear. If I use QuickTime to open them, Open is in gray. Finder will not allow me to get information about the file. I figure the file is corrupt, but how can I be sure? Is there a way to recover/rebuild these files?
