Many BH on our server are reporting the same thing. MANY missions on terminals have not updated since yesterdays server restart--listing them as online yet they are not. Please everyone /bug the hell out of this in game and with tickets. Its rediculous that we only get terminals refreshed on server restarts

someone reported last night that logging out and logging back in when you start getting the multiple target not online messages fixes the problem. Maybe try this workaround and see if it helps?

Oh great! that sounds like a super annoying solution plus even more things to consume our time as it is. Log on. Target Offline. Log off. Long On. Target Offline. you see where i"m going with this?

How do you guys know the marks aren't just doing the log bug? they login, then exit game and log back in before removed from the game.

We CAN'T. Without names, all we can do is /bug it and hope the Devs fix it. It's irritating as hell, right now.

ok. someone posted in here last night that it worked for him but apparently it was just coincidental. they really need to fix this.

Classic proof of the warnings I gave during beta to anyone who would read or listen.
The problem is simple: if you add Jedi to the terminals when they log on, but you do not remove them from terminals when they log off, you don't need a rocket scientist to tell you that eventually (12, 24, 36, 48 hours after the server has been reset)the number of missions for offline Jedi will totally swamp the small number of missions for online Jedi.
The fix is equally, even stupidly, simple: when Jedi log off, and the system is saving their status etc., call a subroutine to remove their mission from the terminals.

SOE looks at bugs in two ways, Game crashing bugs and game play bugs. Game crashing bugs get fixed, gameplay bugs get pushed to the end of the line. 'Your target is not online' is a game play bug, don't expect a fix anytime soon. 
I play at night, last night around midnight pac time I pulled about 20 missions, 3 were actually online. 2 of those 3 were on Kash.
