Update All Image Links When Files Moved To Other Folder

I have Dreamweaver MX 2004, and I would like to know how to
update all my images to the correct location. Five years ago I made
a website and added everything in one folder. I now seperated
everything and added a images folder inside the html folder. All
the links are pointing to where they were before. Could dreamweaver
update all images to a certain folder? Thanks

Or (four?), exit Dreamweaver, move the images back where they
were, open
Dreamweaver and use its Files Panel to move the image files.
Allow it to
update all of the files.

  • Help, When I upload my website all image links are missing!

    Hello, new dreamweaver cs5 user here. When I preview on firefox everything looks great! After uploading all image files are missing. www.cityrevealed.com

    There are still plenty of images attempting to be loaded from a folder level above the Root:
    <img src="../images/header2.jpg" width="960" height="226" border="0"
    are you sure there is an "images" folder in the root?
    http://www.cityrevealed.com/images/
    Typically attempting to look at the index file of a folder level will return "Access Prohibited" or actually reveal the file and sub folder structure with that folder level... but trying to directly access the "images" folder returns page not found. While I realize there may not be any index page there... I would normally be getting "Access Prohibited".
    You may have made changes but are you sure they have ALL been uploaded to the server?
    Are you uploading via DreamWeaver or an FTP program?
    How are you verifying that the server folder structure is exactly the same as your local machine?

  • How to move all images from a site to a new folder and not lose links?

    I have always wondered this.....tried a few things with no success..Whenever I take over a site from someone, a lot of time the previous designer did not make folders for ANYTHING including images.....so in thier main directory they have 20 html pages, 200 images and css files etc.....I can not think this way.....I want to just make a folder for images...put all the images there.....a css folder....etc. Once I do this all my links are lost and it is to much work to replace each one with the broken link finder in Dreamweaver......In some other applications like Logic Studio ( a music production application as an example ) it is very similar. Your main song file is pointing to linked audio files all over your hard drive....If you decide you want to move that drive it will search for the linked audio files and when it can not find them it asks you to specify the new folder or search manually for them.....if I had moved 200 audio files it comes in quite handy because I can just point to that new folder and im done.......finally, my question is what would you guys recommend for doing this? Moving hundreds of image files so that I can organize things...........any help would be GREATLY appreciated...I have googled but found no great technique...

    I'm having the same or similar issue...  I think...  trying to do a little house cleaning in the file structure.  For example, in our events folder I'm creating archive folders (i.e. - 2004, 2005, ect...) and when I use the Files Panel to drag and drop the past event pages into the newly created archive folder, the pages loose all their links.
    Image link prior to and after moving are the same (../images/logo1.gif)
    It does ask me to confirm that I want to move the file but nothing about updating the links.  Is it due to the way the files are linked in the original files?
    Thanks in advance for any help!!!

  • ITunes folder will not delete. When I moved my iTunes folder from my old computer to new, I placed the iTunes folder temporarily in my Dropbox folder so I could cut and paste it into the new computer's music folder. Now I can't delete that folder.

    iTunes will not update my podcasts. When I click refresh, I get the circling arrows but after an hour it hasn't updated the available podcasts on those I'm subscribed to. I don't know if this is related to the issue I'm having with iTunes store and Besecure, guessing it may be. All the workarounds I've seen on these communities for fixing the Bsecure and iTunes issue are far too complicated for me, a computer simpleton. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Yes, provided all the media is inside the iTunes Media folder, which is in turn inside the main iTunes folder (which is the standard arrangement) you should be able to move the iTunes folder from <User's Music> to any other path and shift-start-Tunes (option-start-iTunes on a Mac) to reconnect to it.
    If the media folder has split out to another drive in the past, or media is stored outside of the iTunes Media folder, then things get a bit more complicated. I can go into details should it be necessary.

  • How to see all image types when saving an image without selecting "all files"every time

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [[/questions/951766]]</blockquote>
    Hallo, and thank you for reading this.
    I am a person who saves a lot of images online and renames them in different folders in different names like B - 34 or G - 56. I have been working with firefox 10 for quite some time and it had a pretty handy bug (I guess) where I could save an image and firefox would just save the image in it's original type (JPEG,PNG etc) while "save as type" was empty.
    It also always has shown all the image types in the folder where I save the images (except for GIF) and that helpes me quite a lot by saving me the trouble of selecting "all files" every time I save or going to the folder to rename every image.
    Now this seems to be lacking in the newest firefox versions and my question is if I can set firefox to always show me all the image file types when saving an image, instead of only showing JPEG's when I try to save a JPEG.
    Thank you for your time.

    I suspect this is a Windows problem. I am surmising the FilePicker uses the Operating System or Desktop facilities. Does Windows 7 offer any other file categories like ''images'' ?
    I do not normally use Windows 7, but may the option depend upon the directory being an indexed one, I ask after finding this thread ''Bring File types tab back'' [http://www.windows7taskforce.com/view/819]
    This question is a duplicate of [/questions/951764]
    Normally I would lock the duplicate question, but in this instance I will leave it open as it is unanswered and someone may give a better reply.

  • Distiller missing text and image links when saving to pdf

    Not sure if anyone has experienced this issue before. Basically I create artwork 1up in indesign CS3 and print as a postscript file "print ready settings" then create a pdf through distiller 8.1.2. After this I then imposition the 1up PDF back into indesign (using the pdf as a link and then step and repeat it) then I print the new imposed artwork as postscript file again and distill it as a PDF ready for offset printing.
    Most time this process works like a dream, but every now and then distiller doesn't want to process the file correctly and images and sometimes text have dropped off the final imposed PDF file. It doesnt notify me of any problems when distilling. As you can imagine working in the print industry this is VERY SCARY
    As i am using a common 1up pdf link the imposition should be correct, (all the pdf linked images should be the same anyway) Is it a memory issue, or a bug in distiller perhaps.
    Im running a Mac with OSX 10.4.11 with 2Gig of RAM.
    If you would like to see a sample of the issue let me know.
    Any help on this would be awesome.

    thanks for the replies,
    Working in a pre-press environment we obviously prefer to print from pdf files (as opposed to using supplied native art). As a result I am always receiving pdf files from external clients who have saved their artwork from indesign to pdf format, so Im not sure what the real difference is between me imposing a supplied indesign/pdf files in indesign vs me imposing my own indesign/pdf files in indesign. (aprt from perhaps going through distiller twice)
    i can see what your saying though and for years i have been using the cut and paste and step and repeat method but recently changed my workflow for a few reasons
    - I noticed that by printing a 1up pdf and relinking the file back into my indesign imposition the final imposed pdf was lower in size
    - if a client made a change to the artwork after imposing (which always happens) all i had to do was make the change, resave the pdf 1up link again and update the link and it did it for me and saved me from step and repeating all over again,
    - whenever the job was printed again in the future i could use the same procedure, resave as 1up pdf again and update the link.
    - plus i knew that if i was using the one link all my step and repeats would be exactly the same each time (and i didn't have to worry that a graphic that hadn't been selected/grouped correctly and would drop off when step and repeating)
    .....and for sure it probably is a slightly longer way to impose a job for print but it saves me half the time on the next print run, and i can use my imposition file as a template for similar jobs also.
    I have found the workflow i use works fine, apart from these rare hiccups which i can get around by resaving the pdf again anyway, but what Im really worried about is the times this error presents itself and doesn't notify me that a problem has occurred.

  • Problem with update record, then link to file

    Environment:
    Dreamweaver 8, MySQL, PHP.
    I have a repeating record from my database. I added an Update
    Record server behavior for each search result for the result table.
    I added a button to the form and changed "submit" to "view".
    Pressing "view" is supposed to allow the user to view the detailed
    record information.
    The Update Record server behavior is supposed to do two
    things:
    1) add 1 to the 'numViews' filed of the record's database
    entry when the "view" button is pressed
    2) After updating the numViews field, the form is supposed to
    redirect the user to the detailed record
    I found that depending on how I create the record, I an do
    one of the above 2 behaviors, but not both. HELP!
    To add 1 to the numViews field, I created a form variable
    called incNumViews, which does the following:
    <?php echo $row_rsSearchResults['recipeNumViews']+1; ?>
    Very simple.
    The Update Record ends up changing the form action to the
    following:
    <?php echo $editFormAction; ?>
    Looking at the code for this, I ee the following:
    $editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
    if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $editFormAction .= "?" .
    htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
    But when the "view" (ie: submit" button for the form is
    pressed, I get redirected back to the same repeating record search
    result page, not to the record detail page.
    However, the numViews field in the record is getting properly
    incremented.
    I tried to get around this by changing the Update Record
    behavior "After updating, go to:" field to point to the record
    detail page, and tried passing a parameter tot he recordID I want
    to see details of, as a URL parameter, but that does not work.
    If I change the Update Record form action from
    <?php echo $editFormAction; ?>
    to
    record_detail.php?recordID=<?php echo
    $row_rsSearchResults['recordID']; ?>
    Then I am able to link to the detail page, but NOT update the
    numViews field.
    HOW can I fix this to both update the record, then jump to
    the detail page with a URL parameter being passed, when I click the
    "view" (submit) button o the form??
    Thanks in advance.

    If the user's computer doesn't know what to do with a TIFF file, I guess that Open button would be missing.  Tiff is not a web normal file format, or even a common one for graphics applications....

  • How to find all images in AI file.

    I was given a complex children's logo (below) in AI format. When placing it in ID, I started getting resolution warnings. After some digging, it turns out that the person who created this used images instead of gradients for only some of the objects. I'm not sure why someone would do this instead of just creating the gradients in AI. However, I now need to find and replace all these images. Is there an easy way to locate the images?

    to expand on that theory. i just tested it and yes, it work. Select one, hold shift to select them all in the pallette.. then select "goto links".

  • Click boxes revert to continue when file moved

    For a long time I have been the only Captivate user in my department as a result, I just left the primary file on my hard drive and just put copies in our network drive as a backup. When I did this, I just opened it to make sure it didn't get corrupted and then closed it without actually playing it.
    Then recently my co-worker started using Captivate as well and we started collaborating so I had both of us put copies of our files on the network (keeping our original files on the respective hard drives for safety purposes). I opened her file and tried working with it when I noticed something - all the click boxes she had set to jump to specific slides had reverted to "Continue."
    We quickly checked my network copies and the same thing was happening.
    Thinking maybe it was the network causing that somehow, my co-worker tried copying the file from her laptop to her desktop with the same results.
    Any ideas what is causing it and how to fix it?  We are both using Captivate 6 from Tech Communications Suite 4. (We do plan to upgrade to suite 5 shortly.)
    Thanks in advance

    HI there
    The option "continue playing project" needs to be DE-selected. With it selected, when your user clicks the Click Box, play will resume.
    There is no way I'm aware of to influence the browser behavior as it's up to the configuration on each user's PC as to whether you see a new window or a new tab.
    Cheers... Rick

  • All images read when changing keyword property

    I have been altering some top-level keywords by editing them and clearing the "include on export" setting. Every time I change a keyword in this way, it seems that LR2 insists on reading all my image files! With a 35K image library, this takes forever, effectively making it impossible to alter the export setting on top level keywords of my keyword hierarchy.
    "Automatically write changes to XMP" is NOT enabled.
    Has anyone seen anything like this happening? Is there a work-around?

    Thanks, Ian. Turns out my histogram window was already closed, so I don't think that's a workaround. It appears that LR is reading all files with that keyword or any child of that keyword. Of course, I had started with the keyword with the most photos. Lots and lots of patience got me through it....

  • Does anyone know why I update an image and when I publish, it still publishes the older version?

    I save the file before I publish and it still shows the older version of my image. I went and relinked on the asset panel, but it still shows the old image.

    Hi Celson,
    Could you please share a URL of the web site and also a screen shot of the desing view?
    As Morgan_in_London suggested this could be a cache issue. Either local or server side.

  • IBooks 1.5 looses file name when PDF moved from other apps in iOS 5.0.1 on iPad!

    Opening a titled email PDF attachment in iBooks results in untitled document within ibook. The document transfers from email to good reader or other PDF reader applications without issue. It is an iBooks issue. This started in version 1.5. How can I load a previous version of iBooks?
    Looking at the iTunes books tab the same document has a numerical value as the title.
    The same thing happens if you open a titled PDF document in good reader and use the open with iBook button.
    Anytime a document is sent to iBooks on the iPad, the title becomes blank in iBooks, but the title in iTunes is a 128 bit number.
    How do you report such an issue to apple iBook team?

    I am having a similar problem, the pdf "book" has one name on itunes on my mac, but on my ipad (IOS 5.0.1 build 9A405) the names are different. Plus pdf "books" keep disappearing. If I go into itunes on the Mac and make any change in the "get info" such as comment etc and resync the pdf shows up again.
    Several days later the file again disappears from the ipad (no I am NOT deleting them and I have plenty of free memory on the ipad) and I have make yet another small change.
    I did not encounter this behaviour in previous version of ibook.

  • ODI updates all rows even when no change exists

    We use database triggers to update the created_by, creation_date, last_updated_by, last_updated_date columns on the records. From looking at these columns I can tell that ODI is updating every target record with the save values that are already present.
    I have tried using Journaling, but that I can't get that working, and I there are cases where I am not going to have the luxury of adding journal columns and triggers to my source database.
    Is there a way to have the interface only update records where the values have actually changed?
    Thanks,
    Kt

    In the interface diagram window, you will need to mark the columns created_by, creation_date, last_updated_by, last_updated_date to be executed on "Target".
    In addition,
    For created_by, creation_date, mark them for "Insert" only.
    For last_updated_by, last_updated_date, mark them for "Update" only.
    Hope that helps

  • Swf not working when moved to other folder....

    Hi all...
    i have created a simple flex project that does not use any server technology...  i have then used acitonscript to dynamically set up my end points and channels for a simple remote object which calls a java class on a tomcat local server.

  • Image Capture saving files to the wrong folder

    This happens pretty consistently. I select the folder I want to download my pictures/movies to and it downloads to one of my previously selected folders. How can I fix this so that it places the files in the folder I specify?

    Hi,
    In the Welcome screen, you can accept the license agreement and can go ahead with the installation. You will be asked for the serial number. If you don't have one, install it as a trial application. By default, it's installed in the Applications folder. However, you can change the installation folder in the third screen, if you have a reason. Please see the screenshot below:
    After installing, you can't move application to a different directory by dragging. You need to uninstall and install it again in the folder of your choice.
    Thanks,
    Sunil
