Unable to run update on .book file

I am trying to update a .book file in order to regenerate a new TOC for the TM we are working, as there are areas that have been updated, but for some reason this machine gets to a certain point and then hangs up and I get a Framemaker not responding and then it just quits and doesn't complete the task at hand. Anyone else seeing this issue or know a way to get around it. We are using FrameMaker 12 on Dell Laptops running 8MB of RAM with 64bit OS's with Windows 7 Professional.

> ... and then it just quits and doesn't complete the task at hand.

How can I auto-update all book file links after making a new copy of my project?

Using Indesign CC 2014,
Windows 7x64.
I've created a catalog, using a book file (.indb) which connects 20 Indesign files (.indd) together (so page numbering is continuous, etc).
Each of the 20 Indesign files all have numerous art asset links and cross references. In total, ~200 files are involved.
Once finished with the whole thing, I made a copy of the entire folder structure and placed it elsewhere, because I now need to create a modified version of this catalog project for a different company.
In the end I need to wind up with 2 different, but very similar catalogs.
Here's my problem: when I made the copy of the entire project and opened the copied over book file, I've found that it's still referencing the older 20 Indesign files back in the first folder structure.
It's not using the new stuff.
Same goes for all the art asset links inside each Indesign file.
Looks like absolute paths only.
What's the standard operation procedure here? What can I do to avoid having to manually re-link numerous art assets, etc?
Surely, this is a common need among Indesign users.

Hey, Peter!
I've delayed my response here.
Been dinking around, trying things.
That's a smart suggestion, but the Package command will round up all assets into a nice compact folder structure ready for production. It's not really what I need.
I need to keep things as they are, fully editable and unaltered - my folder structure is carefully crafted as is, and I definitely don't need all the fonts dumped into a folder.
Here's what I'm doing now - I make a complete new copy of the folder structure in question. It includes all InDesign files and linked artwork, etc. Everything.
I then CHANGE the name of root folder of the folder structure I initially copied. This breaks all the absolute paths of the copy.
Then I open each InDesign file and the CORRECT links are still automatically found because it looks inside the new folder structure I just made by creating the copy. So all links get "fixed".
Thank goodness InDesign is far more intelligent about finding missing links than Illustrator.
This is the best solution I've found. It's not perfect, but nothing ever is.

Unable to run iTunes based VBS files

I'm guessing this is something to do with Vista because it works fine on my laptop, but basically I'm trying to run a VBS script which clears out duplicates from iTunes. The VBS file runs fine on my laptop which is running XP, but doesn't run on my desktop running Vista x64 Ultimate (only doing so because it exceeds the max spec for XP Pro).
When I try and run the script I get the following:
C:\Users\Enverex\Desktop>cscript RemoveDup_iTunesTracks.vbs
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.7
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\Enverex\Desktop\RemoveDup_iTunesTracks.vbs(32, 1) Microsoft VBScript
runtime error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'iTunes.Application'
(this forums lack of a "code" paste option is wrecking the output a little but you should get the idea).
I've tried reinstalling iTunes and I've tried installing the x86 version of iTunes, no change. It does this for any iTunes VBS script, not just this one (and as I said they work fine on my laptop). Tried using iTunes 7 instead which also had no effect. The "register the vbs dll file" also has no effect (also that's only a fix for the issue of iTunes not installing in the first place). User is admin and can do anything else on the machine, it's just VBS files for iTunes that don't work.
So any ideas? I really need to be able to sort this out because I can't sync my iPod till It's done :/

Tried the registering thing ages ago, it claims to have registered fine but no change.
I tried the scripts on that site but only the VBS ones (as it's VBS I'm having an issue with). I just tried his EXE version, ran the program and it gave me a list of all his scripts, I tried 2 different ones, they opened a command prompt window (with nothing written in them) and then disappeared after about 2 seconds silently.
I assume I have VBS installed, I thought it was a prerequisite to install iTunes but I'm not sure what else to try, as you mentioned it only seems to be for 2k, XP and 2k3.

Its a SVG file from Batik , an apache java svg tool. Its seems that mozilla is not able run it as expected. I have tried it over opera and safari where it works. I am giving below the SVG script. As a developer I would like to know the status of SVG implementation on Mozilla firefox and its limitations. Thanks
*O o it seems I can't post more than 10,000 words, if you can give the way how could I post the script I will do it.

Are you trying to migrate your application from an older release to a newer one ?
Always provide details of which version of Jdeveloper you are using and what technologies your application uses besides what you were trying to do at a high level.
Since you donot provide much info at this point , all I could suggest would be to see if one of these results help -

Book file & Dropbox: Multiple people working on same book file

I am trying to use the book file and have run into multiple issues. We have saved the book file and all relevant InDesign files on dropbox. There are two of us who work on the book file at the same time. We have the book file open together but work on different files from the book, never working on the same file at the same time.
A few of the issues we have run into are as follows:
1. The book file does not show the InDesign files the other person added, when opening on a different computer.
2. When saving the book file, from the panel, it will tell us someone else saved the file and if we want to overwrite their file.
3. When working on of the files from the book and I try to save the file (ctrl+s) I get error messages telling me the network connection was modified by another process. InDesign then has en error message it needs to shut down and start back up to recover documents. After it starts back up it can't recover document due to error(11).
Has anyone used the bookfile with a cloud service, while multiple people work on different files for the book? For example, we want one person to work on the files 1-5 and another on 6-10 for the book file at the same time.

Only one person can work on a book file at the same time.
You cannot work this way on the files.
Person A adds a file to the book
Saves
Person B adds a file to the book
Saves
Persons B version overwrites Person A file.
Consider giving 1 person the duty of updating the Book File.
Only 1 person can work on a file at the same time - consider splitting files you're working on into folders
Folder>Person A
Folder>Person B
Add files that person should be working on.
Person in charge of updating the book file will update from both folders.
The way you're working will not work.

Relink book file

Hi scripters
Here I am updating book file.contents from one folder to another folder. Below is my code I used to update the book file. While I am executing this script It's processing for sometime and finally closes the Indesign application.
var new_folder = Folder.selectDialog("Please select a folder");
bb = app.books[0].bookContents;
for (i = 0; i < bb.length; i++)
chname= File(bb[i].fullName).name;
mynewfile = File(new_folder + "/" + chname);
if (mynewfile.exists) {
bb[i].replace (File (mynewfile));
The error shown below

Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart InDesign to recover work in any unsaved InDesign documents.
OK
Please advice me where I am mistaken?
thanks in advance

Hallo Ebrebc,
Thanks for your reply but that is not exactly what I mean.
What I mean is if you can relink your images in several Indesign-files at the same time?
I have made a book-file of 50 separate Indesign-files in which I have to relink all images.
Now I have to open each file to relink the images, but is there a way you can do that with several Indesign-files?
Thanks!

I am unable to run .exe files. I downloaded the install flashplayer update and it won't find the downloaded file!

Thank you christ1. That worked. I did try running it with administrator, but I hadn't rebooted and it didn't work. It did work after I rebooted. I don't know why that should have mattered, but there you go. Thank you again.

Unable to delete Address Book File

I am unable to delete nor copy over an Address Book file that I have on an external HD connected via Airport Extreme. When I connect the HD directly to my Macbook Pro, I am able to delete the file - but not via Airport Extreme. When I attempt to delete the file, I get a message from Trash as follows: The operation cannot be completed because the item "Metadata" is in use. Same message when I attempt to replace the file with a new file. In other words, I am unable to use AE to transfer my Address Book file to my external HD, unless I change the name of the file. What is going on here?

Hello Bob.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

Changes made in book file are not reflected in RH when book is updated

I'm using RH7 in TCS1. (I know, I know, everybody else is on RH8 in TCS2). I've added a book file by reference to my project. Then I made a few changes to titles in my FM book, then updated my project, but none of the changes have been made in RH.
Any ideas?

You're not the only one using TCS1. I, too, must endure Adobe's initial FM-RH Integration software offering with its limited patches and multiple workarounds (I don't sound bitter, do I?).
Do you have the latest patches?
When you say you modified titles in your FM book, did you modify the document titles from the book file, thereby changing the file names? Or did you change heading styles within a FM document/chapter?
If you changed the file name in any way, verify in the RH Project Manager that all links to the referenced FM files are not broken. If any file links are broken, you can resolve them in the RH Project Manager.
Changing a heading name within a FM document should not cause you this grief, as long as the file links between FM and RH remain intact.
As I don't know your level of experience, I'll make an suggestion to someone new to FM-RH integration (although, since you're using TCS1, I presume you are an experienced user). When updating the RH project, are you selecting Force Update or Update All. Force Update applies changes made in FM to your RH project. Update All only applies changes made in RH.
Also, RH has a feature that allows you to select specific topics to ignore when running a Force Update (i.e. changes in FM won't be applied to the selected topics). Make sure no topics are selected for this purpose.
If all else fails (and I don't recommend this unless you tried every other possibility), delete and re-import the book. There's another thread that helps you through this process without you having to manually reapply your settings.
Good luck!

Illustrator won't run: "unable to set maximum number of files to be opened"

I have an intel macbook pro (core duo with 2GB ram) and a copy of purchased adobe creative suite 2. Other applications in the suite like photoshop, acrobat, etc can run on my mac without any problem.

Unable to run jar file without lib folder containing swing-layout-1.0.jar

I have done my project through NetBeans 5.0. Eventhough I have copied my lib foloder containing swing-layout-1.0.jar inside my project.jar, I am still unable to run my project.jar in other systems, it is creating an error as Could not find the main class. Program will exit. But if I copy the lib foloder containing swing-layout-1.0.jar in the same path as the project.jar, then my project.jar is running.
But I want to give only the project.jar for other users and not also lib foloder containing swing-layout-1.0.jar each time.
Could someone please help me with this.

When you develop GUI applications using the Netbeans you may endup using netbeans specific jar files in your auto generated code.
And when you build jar files with netbeans it copy the third party jar files used in a application in to a lib folder in the same directory as the jar file of your project. And then set a class path entry to those jar files in your project jar file's manifest file.
So if you want to redistribute the package you have to redistribute your jar file and every thing in the lib folder in with the same directory structure.
If you want to change the structure you will have to change the class path to suit the new structure.

InDesign "Save As" dialog box for every operation in INDB book file; updating page numbers, etc.

So I haven't used INDB files in awhile in InDesign, and today was the first time I attempted to adjust an old INDB (created originally with CS5). For every operation of adjusting the book file, such as updating page/section number or adding/removing an INDD file I get a Save As dialog box for each constiuent INDD file. This is quite annoying since the book has lots of INDDs, and I have to click through the tedious save as with each. I previously worked with INDBs in CS5, and never encountered this, there was no need to save each INDD in the book just to update the page numbers. I tried creating a new INDB in CS5.5 thinking that maybe it was because I was working from a file created with an older version of InDesign. Does anyone know if there is a way to suppress the Save As dialog? Another thing I noticed that is supremely frustrating is that this new build of InDesign doesn't default to saving the file in its original location, and I have unwittingly ended up saving files in other places, only to later realize it. I am using InDesign CS5.5 Ver. 7.5.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.3 Any help is greatly appreciated.

It will only happen once (and frankly, what you are doing is a very bad idea).
When you open the old book in CS5, you are converting to the new format. All of the legacy files also need to be converted, even if added to a new book in CS5.5, hence the Save As since ID will not overwrite the old versions until you tell it to (and that's the bad idea). I strongly recommend (though it's too late for any books you've already updated and overwritten) that you either continue to edit in the old version, or that you take the time to open each file in the original version if it's older than CS5, then export to interchange format (.inx or .idml, depending on version), open those files in CS5.5, save with new names so you don't overwrite anything, then add to a new book and proceed.
One of the reasons I recommend this seemingly time-consuming approach is that there are too many reports (another one yesterday) of some sort of problem that pops up late in the editing cycle when converting legacy files to CS5/5.5 by opening them directly and saving. This is a belt and suspenders insurance approach, and is far less labor intensive than starting over, which might end up being your other option down the road if something goes wrong.
