How can I insert a CSV file that has empty fields? (Some fields must be empty) CS4

Hey, it's the first time I did a data merge in InDesign. I'm trying to insert a list of addresses that often has blank fields in it. The fields are empty because some fields are not relevant for some people (i.e. some of the people do not have cell phones have no other email addresses) so these people would obviously leave these empty. The problem is when I make a data merge that I thought that the CSV file will not import because some fields are empty. I don't know why InDesign tells me this, or some fields are empty they are not relevant for this person. Is someone can you please tell me how I can work around this problem?

Sounds more like you have an empty cell in the column header line, but there is data that columns somewhere below...

  • How can I recover all my files that I lost in an accident? I had to use my system recovery disk and install drivers for my computer again. I lost all my files. Is there something I can do?

    Help!  How can I recover all my files that I lost?  I was answering an e-mail message when I heard a couple of clicks then my computer off.

    I thought that my computer was destroyed.  Nothing I tried would bring it to the top, so I decided to use the system recovery disc that

    came with my computer.  I've also downloaded all the drivers for the application.  My computer is back on, but I lost everything.

    It's like putting into service with a new computer.  I had a lot of important information in the files that I lost.  I've tried everything I know to do

    without success.  Is it still possible to recover these lost files?  Thank you very much for your help!

    I'm sorry, but when you did the recovery of the system you have disabled your hard drive of everything, including your files.

    You now have a new computer.

  • Creating a PDF file that has editable fields and replaceable images

    I tried to understand how I can create a PDF file that is replaceable photos and editable text. I work for a company in which all computers have only Adobe Reader as a means to view or edit a PDF file. So far, I managed to create a file that contains fields of text editable with a custom look and feel, which is great! However, the next step was to create "fields" that can be filled by a picture. Is there a way to create with LiveCycle or any other prorgram also replaceable images.

    My goal is simple: create a PDF file that has editable textfields and replaceable images. What should be done in Adobe Reader.

    I use Adobe Acrobat X Pro to create this file, and I wonder if Live Cycle can help me with this problem, or if this is even possible at first. Thanks in advance.

    Your goal is very simple with the LCD. Only use an Image field (important no Image) of the object library.

    Any time you can click on it and select a new image.

    Hope this information is useful?

    Kind regards Mandy

  • How can I insert another PDF file into an existing PDF page

    Here is some information.  I used to use Acrobat 5 (I know it's really old, but it worked fine for my needs, but it's time to upgrade).  I have a document PDF 1 page that exists (for example, an invoice).  Sometimes in Excel I create additional supporting details/calculations/etc that I have to place on the Bill.  In the past I would print my Excel document to PDF using PDF Broadgun (great tool!) - and I would like to continue to do that.  Then I'd go in Acrobat 5, open to the top of my invoice PDF 1 page document, can I use the shape tool, insert the icon and select my right to 'support' on the 1st page PDF document.  If necessary, I could resize and place anywhere on the paper invoice/PDF 1 existing page that I started with, then the resolution is great (i.e. without "grainy" appearances, etc.).

    I've now upgraded to Acrobat Pro XI (Finally, technically I'm test to ensure he'll will meet my needs - well, until I came across this).  I tried to copy the data Excel directly in my invoice PDF document, but it's often times the super object large (away from the page from left to right) and then I have to resize (significantly smaller) in order to adapt it to the page.  This causes the resizing of the text that should appear "grainy".

    So pretend that my original invoice/PDF 1 page document took the top 1/2 of the page.  Then, in Excel I create a backup that is say 5-10 lines of calculations.  How can I get the Excel save as Image in my document 1 original page (and on the 1 page)?  The only work that I found so far about is to be inserted as the last past, then to highlight the new features in Excel, cut and copy on page 1 (these seems like extra stages in my eyes, but it does not work).

    I also want to avoid using the screen snip-it, snagit and several other tools for the following reasons:

    1. I don't want to remove the gridlines in Excel (that is, when you print from Excel, the grid lines do not print by default)

    2. I use Broadgun PDF to generate a PDF file (i.e. electronic print) and then the document/data looks exactly as I want it to look like if I had printed physically

    Any thoughts?  Thanks in advance for help also.

    Other details: Windows 7 Pro, use of the company

    I don't see what the problem is with the print to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer as you did with the other tool. Open your new PDF Excel, then do the same process as before (assuming that it worked for you). Just go to tools > Interactive and add a button field (I assume that's what you did before) and place the file there. At least give it a try because I think that's what you say you used to do.

  • How can I move the iTunes file that keeps track of plays on a new hard drive

    I added an SSD for my MacBookPro and use it as a boot drive. I finally understood how to get the entire library of music to play without moving all the music for the SSD (not enough of space for everything), but I have lost all my game account.

    There must be a file that lists all these information. Where could I find it? I tried to export the library but the iTunes on the new disc he did not recognize.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    10.11.6, iTunes 12.3.4.1

    The file is the iTunes Library.itl file. This file guard track of everything in iTunes. And I mean everything. What kind of music you have, what has been deleted, playlists, play counts, ratings, date added, files, but a group which is not a lot of information duplicated in the tags attached to the media.

    It is quite difficult to judge where exactly you are in this process because you don't have not said us what you did exactly. It's easy to make a mess of a library in doing things without knowing exactly how iTunes really works rather than how we think it works. You can try to copy this file .itl on the original to the new one and maybe drive he always knows that the media files are the original disk, but I'm not positive.

    Just to let you know, using a library distributed in this way can lead to complications on the road and requires that begin you now learn the details of the operation of iTunes if you can avoid the problems.

    On the iTunes library files - https://support.apple.com/HT201610 - does not mention that a complete library of work also includes other files and also files in the iTunes folder.

  • How can I delete a corrupted file that prevents me from backup of my hard drive?

    I can't back up my drive hard because when I try to copy, the copy of windows feature explore hangs up and stops when it hits the corrupted file. I can't delete, move, copy, or modify attrubutes on file and no program do not use. Back to zero does not solve the problem. How can I force windows to delete this file so that I can back up my hard drive? The corrupted file is a video. AVI file.

    Try the freeware "Unlocker" program  It has a pretty good track record, deleting files with this error message.

  • How can I retrieve the mail files that have disappeared.

    I had a few folders on the mail who disappeared recently. How can I get back them?

    The mailbox list is divided into categories with such topics on my Mac. When you position the cursor on one of these positions (with the exception of the mailboxes), you should see the Word display / hide it on the right. Click view. The category of mailboxes cannot be hidden.

    In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle pointing to the right, click it so that it points downwards.

    Also note that you may need to scroll the list of mailboxes upwards or downwards to see it all.
