"My object appears pink."

Before fixing this, answer this question: Should this object have a texture?

• If the answer is no:
  • The pink color in the real time view is not the material, but the uv layer, which references a uv image. Just click the X next to the UV coordinate layer to remove it, and there won't be any more dead image references in the real time view.
    

• If the answer is yes:
  • Reloading the texture into the "empty" UV window (it appears "empty" when you have the object & (missing) texture selected) solves the "pink" issue without having to delete the UV block ... thus preserving your UV mapping.
