Broken links to the network shared folders by users

Hello

Several people here at my office working on files work InDesign InDesign files with links to the image on a network share file store.

If a person links, the next person to work on the page, on another workstation, but access to the same network, there are all broken links and will have to repeat all - sometimes quite painful if the images are not all in one folder; You must navigate each involved folder and find the file in question.

Rarely, this happened in CS2, but is happening now quite frequently in CS4. What has changed? And why is it so difficult to re - tying things now? It seemed that when we could not link something new in CS2, it gave you a little help. For example if you were re-login to a given file, if you navigated to the appropriate folder, you will find the file already highlighted. No more, it seems.

If something has changed in the way that InDesign maintains links?

How can I avoid that links broken all the time? Is there a quicker way of restoring links?

Thank you

Assuming you're on Mac: what you see in the Finder may differ from the actual path of the Unix.

A possible cause is that if you get the same volume of different user accounts, reboot just to fix it.

Another cause is an empty folder in the Volumes folder, delete to fix.

To check, drag the image into the web browser. The URL can show variations in the volume name, as one '-' appearing in annex 1.

You can also take a look at the links, low link info panel. The 'path' value must be enabled.

  • Broken links in the desktop icons

    Hello

    I have a problem that arises at a time it is caused by a virus in my computer and eats all my programs. I managed to solve a lot of problems, I now have icons on my desktop, but the links do not work for programs that they guess, nothing happens. I get a message that there is no program associated with the icon.  In order to enter a program to open, I do a right-click on the icon my computer, and then open the program of the left column.

    I spoke with a rep at Microsoft on a different issue, and he said he thought that my 'user name' has been altered and that I should change.  I have a new 'user name', but I need to transfer all my programs to the new user to correct broken links.

    Any suggestions on how I can fix the link and transfer programs on the new user, as I have no idea? Thank you

  • Broken links to the luggage

    I recently upgraded from RH5 RH6 to. RH5 has been uninstalled. My project has many links to the PDFs luggage. When I generate my output, these links do not work! I can just right click on the link and "Save as".

    I tried to configure them to open in a pop, but that has not worked.

    Internet Explorer otherwise opens PDF links very well. I can also see the PDF files in the right output directory.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Client cannot connect to the shared folders Windows 10

  • Cannot map the shared folders to the drive letter in WIndows prompt

    I seem to have a problem with the shared folders in a Windows on Fusion 6 client. Turning on shared folders in the VM options creates the "VMWare shared folders" shortcut on my desktop, and I can open and view files shared host, as expected. However, it is not map the shared folders to drive Z: in Windows because I expect, and I can not also go to shared folders using the path "\\vmware-host\Shared records" (for example, only by typing in the address bar in a window of the Explorer). It is a problem, because I need a path that I can put scripts to refer to things in the shared folder.

    Also, if I access network in Explorer, vmware-host is there but trying to open it gives me the error "Windows cannot access \\vmware-host."

    I'm running 6 Fusion on OS X Mavericks, and the guest is Windows 8.1. My .vmx file contains the following lines which I think are related to shared folders:

    insulation. Tools.hgfs.Disable = "FALSE".

    hgfs.mapRootShare = 'TRUE '.

    hgfs.linkRootShare = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.present = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.enabled = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.readAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.writeAccess = 'TRUE '.

    sharedFolder0.hostPath = ' / users/buck/projects.

    sharedFolder0.guestName = 'projects '.

    sharedFolder0.expiration = "never".

    sharedFolder.maxNum = '1 '.

    For me, the weirdest thing is that I can get for shared folders by using the shortcut on the desktop, but by typing the exact path and the shortcut points to in an Explorer window does not work!

    If anyone has any suggestions on how I could get this works normally, I would be very grateful - thank you!

    Hi Buck,

    Welcome to the community.

    Have you tried to re - install vmware tools in your windows 8.1?

    I think you should activate windows network discovery if you want to browse vmware host in the network.

    You can enable this by

    Control Panel-> network and Internet-> Network and Sharing Center-> the advanced sharing settings
