Every time I try to do a Kitchen interior elevation I get the warning saying "The render appearence image is missing: Metal-Stainless steel- Dacor brushed.jpg.

I looked all over on every appliance and I can't find any that is using this material. How can I get this .jpg and add it to the material on the materials list?

You will have to find where you saved the .jpeg then go into your material editor and apply it to the material that is using the .jpeg.  My guess would be someone moved the .jpeg to a different folder or erased it all together so in that case you may need to find a new one.

Well, it doesnt find the .jpg in revit 2010 nor in 2012, so, I don't think someone moved the file... Besides, where can I get the .jpg file? I searched on the internet but couldn't find it.

"I don't think someone moved the file" Well if you are getting the warning that is saying

"The render appearence image is missing: Metal-Stainless steel- Dacor brushed.jpg." Then the file was either moved or erased.

The material you re talking about does not sound familiar as a material that came with Revit.  Was this a material that you created?

If you open the material editor and go to the material in question you will see the image (or missing image) and there will be a driver path underneath it where the jpeg as originally "suppose to be".  If you cannot find it you will just have to find a new picture that has the look you are trying to achieve.

I don't believe that this is a standard material.  It was probably defined in the family.... So where did you get that?  If someone made it there then they have the jpg.  Otherwise, you will have to assign it a different or new material.

Yes, maybe it was something I took from revitcity and it came without the .jpg. I searched on the Dacor website, but didn't find it.

Thank you.
