How will I know if I deleted a photo or if it is missing?
I recently got a new MacBook and just left my old one on an external hard drive. I keep my photos on the external hard drive now and everytime I open LR, he seems to forget where are my pictures. I found a few missing pictures before, but they seem to disappear again when I close and re-open later LR.
I also deleted pictures in the recent past (before and after the transfer to external hard drive) from the inside, LR, and now I can not tell if the? refers to two photos and deleted missing photos or only missing photos (often there is no thumbnail for me to see what picture it is). Is there a way to tell if the photo has been deleted or not? I don't want to waste my time looking for mysterious images of (miniature less) that I wanted to delete anyway. I hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for any guidance on this.
If you use the option delete picture or pictures in LR, and select Remove from the disk image files are both removed from the LR catalog and removed the disc they were on. There is no way to remove an image from your hard drive and not remove it from the LR catalog from inside Lightroom. You can delete the catalog and not delete hard drive in LR, but not vice versa.
So if you see a question mark (?) next to a LR image is unclear to where is this image. For as far as LR knows that the image is missing.
There is a problem with Mac computers and external drives.
(1) start up your Mac, it can take a few seconds to a minute or more for OS X to see the external hard drive is connected. If you start LR at the moment sees no OS X, recognize the external hard drive you will get? marks on all the images that are stored on this drive and imported in the LR catalog.
(2) OS X has a function to put hard drives to sleep, internal and external drives. If this happens, OS X puts your drive external to sleep and you open LR it may take some time for the reader to be seen and for LR to connect with the pictures that are on this drive.
There is a setting in the OS X preferences to stop this (or at least there was at the time Mt Lion and Maverick in Mac OS X. I have not used the new versions of OS X).

How will I know when a PDF doc was created originally that there is nothing under file/properties
Hi David,
Generally, it appears in the document properties window in Acrobat (as illustrated in the following snapshot).
However, if the sender/author has deleted the pdf metadata then there are chances that original file creation date is not displayed.

How will I know if a page is bookmark
When I bookmark on a page, I see that the star lights up in blue. However, when I come back to this page, how will I know if the page has been bookmarked before.
Before the update, there will be a yellow star on the address bar. It is no longer available.
Thank you for your help.
The star in the Navigation toolbar is highlighted blue when you are on a tab that is bookmarked.
In current Firefox released (29 and following), which are have a UI Australis, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three button bar of Menu of Firefox at the far right of the Navigation bar and this button is always visible, if you have the bar of menus visible or hidden
A consequence of this situation, it is that you can no longer hide the Navigation toolbar- There is a star as the button at the right end of the search bar on the Navigation toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show bookmarks" button next to it to open bookmarks in a menu drop-down.
You can find "Show all bookmarks" to open the Manager of bookmarks (library) at the bottom of the drop-down list. - It is still possible to have the bar of menus visible through the context menu on toolbars to have menus like the bookmarks menu
- If bookmark you a page, then 'Bookmark this Page' in the bookmarks menu replaces it with "edit this bookmark".

I have Windows 7. My old version of windows has always shown a lock when a Web site has been encrypted and secure. I don't see that now. How will I know that it is safe to give personal information such as credit card numbers, on a web page?
Padlock is therefore more part of Firefox; It has been removed from Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection, but does not provide any additional information. You could make a typographical error, and have always been connected to a secure connection. The lock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site identity button. Familiarize yourself with the Site identity button at the left end of the address bar:

How will I know if a connection site is secure? In Safari or Explorer there is a locking visual icon in the web browser window, but not in Firefox. Is there an add-on that meets this need?
The padlock shows only that there is a secure connection and does not guarantee that you are connected to the right server. So you could always be connected to the wrong server if you make a typing mistake in the URL and someone said that mistyped the URL. The lock feature has been replaced by the identity button of the Site on the left end of the address bar (address).
https://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/site+identity+button
http://www.Mozilla.com/en-us/Firefox/security/identity/
This has actually existed since Firefox 3.0
If you still want an icon of padlock also then there is this Extension.
