Try most recent build 2699. This worked successfully for me.

This will allow you to find the issues that should have their cover examined to determine if it is a 'NS' cover or a 'Direct Market' cover. (NOTE: This is a 'beta' version but I think it will work (I made my own test cases but the actual Update may add something I didn't test for.) Assumptions: A 'Direct Market' issues can only be issue number 1 or 1/A. If you do NOT own a #1 or #1/A (i.e. you own #1/B) it will NOT be displayed. If you own ONLY #1 OR #1/A, only the one you own will display. If you own BOTH #1 AND #1/A, they will both be displayed (to difficult with the current 'brain dead' SQL implementation to just get only one to display (I know why it is 'brain dead' and I mostly agree but that doesn't change the face). I.Title || I.IssueNum || I.ItemType || I.Printing IN ( SELECT B.Title || B.IssueNum || B.ItemType || B.Printing FROM ComicIssues B WHERE B.Title || B.IssueNum || B.ItemType || B.Printing IN ( SELECT A.Title || A.IssueNum || A.ItemType || A.Printing FROM ComicIssues A WHERE A.Variation = 'NS' ) AND B.Variation IN ('', 'A') AND B.QtyInStock >= 1 ) AND I.Variation IN ('', 'A') OR I.Title || I.IssueNum || I.ItemType || I.Printing IN ( SELECT B.Title || B.IssueNum || B.ItemType || B.Printing FROM ComicIssues B WHERE B.Title || B.IssueNum || B.ItemType || B.Printing IN ( SELECT A.Title || A.IssueNum || A.ItemType || A.Printing FROM ComicIssues A WHERE A.Variation = 'NS' ) AND B.Variation IN ('', 'A') AND B.QtyInStock >= 1 ) AND I.Variation IN ('NS') If you are interested what this does it: Before the OR In the deepest sub-query, it finds all the NS issues. It uses this to filter out all Titles/Issues that don't have NS issues and find any Title/Issues that you own 'no variation' (regular) issues and/or an 'A' Variation issue. This is then used to only display those owned 'no variation' and/or 'A/ Variations. After the OR it uses similar logic to display 'NS' issues that you own 'no-variation' and/or 'A' variation issues: In the deepest sub-query, it finds all the NS issues. It uses this to filter out all the Titles/Issues That don't have NS issues and any Title/Issues that you own 'no variation or 'A' variation issues. This is then used to display only the NS issues that you own 'no-variation' or A.variations. If this does not return what you want, please explain (in as much detail as possible) what you want and I might be able to modify this (no promises (see 'brain dead' SQL...)

Only until the problem is fixed.

To make it easier to add covers from outside sources. But the behavior of b2679 is NOT working as it should be. What it is supposed to do is leave the drag/drop from a local source (your computer) to the Grid as it has always worked. It is supposed to add a cover image if you drag/drop from an outside source (like GCD), AND you place the cursor ONLY on the cover issues display field for a specific issue, THEN it would rename the cover image from whatever the outside source named it (i.e. 1134563.jpg) to that issue's number and add it. I have notified Pete directly to let him know about this problem.
-
Thanks. I assumed that was what you were doing but I have been doing support long enough to verify and not just assume. I upgraded to the same version and now am able to recreate you problem. I think this is related to a new feature that Pete demonstrated in yesterdays LiveStream. In that demonstration, he said you had to drop/drag the cover Exactly over the cover display box and NOT on the entire line and it would automatically rename to that issue.
-
What is your Edition and Version? What specific Title and Issues are involved? Can you describe in detail what you are doing? (Using 4K Archive Edition v25.6.0.2633, I have tired to recreate this by going to Title Concert of Champions with Issues 1, 1/A, 1/B, 1/C and 1/D, renaming some Cover Scans to 1.jpg, 1-A.jpg and 1-B.jpg. then drag/drop individually and as a group and both times then were added to the correct Issues. I am not able to recreate your problem.)
-
I re-ran the update (from a backup before the problem) and it ran successfully.
-
You can, if you like. The programmers (Pete) have been notified and will probably issue a fix but I can't say when (today? tomorrow? Monday? later?). Unless you absolutely need the Update, I would just wait. You can also try re-running the Update (Press and Hold the SHIFT key while selecting Check for Updates) and try clicking a few more times to get past the errors.
-
I tested and got the same error with b2504. After clicking OK a few time (5 or 6?), it eventually finished. Not sure what it may have affected, however.

Having problems printing reports to pdf

Your best option is to contact support. You can get the phone number or email address on the CB website under Support, Contact Technical Support. I can't really help with access issues. -

First a little information. When you install the Archive Edition (and possibly the new 'Plus' editions), you have an option for a quick install. What this means is small, thumbnail sized covers will be installed to save time and space on your disk. Then any time you click on a cover to display it, CB will download the full-sized image and display it and save on you disk locally. (There is also an option on the content Update window to chose between Fast/Least Space or Best/Most Space.) Alternately, you can go to the CB website, use My Account (top left corner) and select Registrations. Click on the green arrow under Download next to your Edition. Then click the 'Other' radio button. This will get you to the page where you can download the full-sized cover (several files in the 5-7 GB range). After downloading all of them, use File->File Tools Manage Pictures and Movies and select Install from Disk (actually disk images in the files you downloaded) to get all the full-sized covers installed. ------------------------------------ Now that that is out of the way, If the install used the quick install, all of the available (small-sized) covers should be visible in CB. When you used File->File Tools Manage Pictures and Movies and clicked Download and install Pictuers, all of the available (small-sized) covers should be visible in CB. If you downloaded the files and installed them, all of the available (full-sized) covers should be visible in CB. Since you are reporting that they are NOT visible, I would check the following (you may have already done this): Open File->File Tools and select Manage Pictures and Folders. Note the path under 'Location of Pictures and Logos. This is the location that CB is using to Find the various cover scans. By default, it is the C drive\Users\Public\Documents\Human Computing. (NOTE: actual folder is 'Public Documents' and not 'Documents'). You can also right-click on the large cover in the top-left corner and select Show Picture File to get the location (but drilled down to the Title). Verify that the covers you are NOT seeing are in that location. If they are NOT there, then they are somewhere else and you would need to find them. If the ARE there and are not being displayed, then there is something wrong and you need to contact support so they can figure out what the problem is.

I am confused. In my database, Ultimate X-Men (3rd Series) #12 is the correct Peach Momoko cover. and X-Men (7th series) also seems to have the correct #12 cover (Ryan Stegman). And AA has the same covers. I checked other sources (GCD, MyComicShop) and they verify the covers I have are correct.
-
It is hard to see in you screen print but I think the issue you are adding is 678-B in 'The Amazing Spider-Man'. If that is correct, it is named incorrectly. There is no 678/B issue. There is a 678/A issue with the cover you have (venomized Mary Jane) However, I see that you have both 678/A and 678/B in your database so it should be showing up in the incorrect entry but isn't for some unknown reason.
-
First thing I would check is if the file type is .JPG. If not, it won't be recognized. Second thing I would try is not just adding it directly to the folder. Instead goto the Title you want to add the cover scan to, then Right-Click and hold on the cover scan at its current location and drag/drop it in the grid area (where all the issue information is displayed). This will add it to the correct location. At some time in the past, you occasionally needed to leave the Title and come back for the display to be refreshed (but I haven't noticed this for some time). You can find the correct location CB is looking for cover scans by Right-Click on the large Cover display (top left corner) and selecting Show Picture File (NOTE: there has to be at least one cover in the Title for this to work. Otherwise, it will take you to the Publisher Logo file.) You can also verify and or change the location CB is looking for cover scans by using menu item File->File Tools and selecting Manage Pictures and Movies. If none of this helps, I am either not understanding the exact process you are doing or there is some strange problem and you will need to contact support.

Searching only in My Collection
Steven L. Dasinger replied to Sandro Silvestri's topic in Tech Support
You can also use Find (click the magnifying glass icon next to the text box at the top middle of the display, or menu item Items->Find... or CTRL+F). Then in the Find window, select My Comics. That will return a list of all the Titles/issues you own and you can click on columns to sort them (only single sorts. You can't sort by multiple columns (at least I don't think you can)). Is that what you are looking for? -

Just about all the sites I search for (that don't have it all in upper-case) has it as Toxic Daughter: Chi-chan (lower-case 'c'). Since it a pre-order, there are not insides looks that I can find to verify one way or the other. -

Batman East Side Comics Special Editions
Steven L. Dasinger replied to Manuel J. Galceran's topic in Content and Corrections
I can find the Harley Quinn cover on the East Side Comics website with a release date of 2/19/2025 here: https://eastsidecomics.com/products/batman-new-52-1-natali-sanders-christmas-harley-quinn-excl-reprint-variant?_pos=2&_sid=beba6a29b&_ss=r While CB has A Joker cover issue in Batman (2nd Series) #1/E, it has a Street Date of 2/1/2012 ( On AA at https://atomicavenue.com/atomic/item/1436439/1/Batman-2nd-Series-1E ) On the East Side Comics website, they have the same cover with a 2/19/2025 release date here: https://eastsidecomics.com/products/batman-new-52-1-redcode-excl-akira-joker-homage-variant?_pos=3&_sid=f09da2a1d&_ss=r&variant=47181819904242 The also have a Black and White version of the Joker cover with the same 2/19/2025 release date (and an indication it is a MegaCon 2025 Exclusive here: https://eastsidecomics.com/products/batman-new-52-1-redcode-megacon-2025-excl-akira-joker-b-w-variant?_pos=1&_sid=f09da2a1d&_ss=r A) I don't know if the existing Joker cover #1/E is the same as the (with an incorrect Street Date in CB) or if the 2025 edition is a reprint of it. B) The Harley Quinn cover is not in CB. I don't know if there was an 'original' issue back in 2012 with the 2025 issue being a reprint or if the 2025 is a new (never before printed) issue. May have to leave this for the editors to decide on issue numbers. If 1/E is correct (2/1/2012) then the new would be 1/E-2 (Not sure what the B&W issue would be). If 1/E is NOT correct, the Street Date would change to 2/19/2025. (B&W would then be 1/E-2? maybe?) If previous Harley Quinn cover existed, then this would be a second printing of that issue (that is not in CB). If it is a brand new issue, it could be the next letter variation (1/F?). or all of these could just be new Variation letters. -
