AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cannot Reinstall After Files Corrupted By Tune-up Utilities 2012
Jun 7, 2012
Tune up utilities got into my system and was finally removed by windows installer today. I tried 2 times to repair Autocad2011 civil 3d, then 3 times to reinstall it, finally removed all files I could find and tried 2 times to install. Cannot install I get eror 1402 about the key being too full or somtehing like that. It is the student version but I use it for my own use and need to access the files.
when I export a road file to my TS2 it becomes corrupted (file size 50% of what it should be.
4 months ago there was no problem. The weird thing a is that the other worstation in the office has this issue to.
Here's what I have done to troubleshoot: swapped out both data collectorsexported this rxl file to a virtual instrument on my desktoptalked to cansel and autodesk but the said they haven't seen this problem. I can rule out the following.
trimble/autodesk software, hardware ( to much a coincidence that both work stations have this problem)Data Collectors swapped out - file size of the corrupted rxl were the same on the virtual deskto instrumentcorrupted dwg - exported a road six months ago, now re-exported and the new file is corrupted.
On a waterline that I am currently working on, we have existing utilities (gas, fiber, electric, etc.) surveyed and need to display those on our profile. Typically we will determine the crossing locations and offset those x' below the existing ground.
The problem I am having is that in a mile and a half of waterline, there are 100+ crossings. Creating a pipe out of each of those, applying the correct pipe type and display, naming the pipe network, etc, is too time consuming. It's faster to draw them on our profile manually. Also, with 100+ pipe networks, it slows down the drawing considerably. And if we create data shortcuts, then we have to create a reference to 100's of pipe networks in our plan and profile sheets.
I have a 2013 Civil 3D file, in which I've generated a set of multiple profile views, using a proposed centerline of a new pipeline as the alignment, and the existing grade surface. The profile views are just fine. However, there is also an existing underground electric service running roughly parallel to this proposed pipeline.
All I have to work with is a 3D polyline which shows the location and elevation of that electrical service line. Here's my issue: Right now the profile view(s) display on only the existing grade along the pipeline alignment, and that's fine. I would also like these profile views to display the location of the above described electrical line, but don't know how to get the profile view(s) to "see" it.
Now that details of the R2013 version of AutoCAD Civil 3D are public, I wanted to update you on the status of Google Earth import and export workflows. The following statement summarizes where we are:
Due to limitations on the use of the Google Earth API, AutoCAD® Civil 3D® 2013 does not include API access to allow customers to import Google Earth imagery and/or surfaces directly into Civil 3D. We are aware of the importance of including preliminary surface and aerial imagery in your design workflows and are actively looking for an alternative. However, we cannot share any specific information about potential future product enhancements. When appropriate, we will communicate technology plans via various channels including Autodesk Labs, Facebook, Blogs and the Civil 3D Discussion Group.
As noted above, we'll update you as soon as we can share information on technology plans that target the workflow of incorporating readily available image and surface information into your design workflows.
I am trying to annotate right-of-way, utilities, and wetlands in my cross-section sets. I know that this can be done by creating alignments, but this seems very cumbersome for a large project with hundreds of wetland areas and major utilities. I know that this task can be quickly accomplished using Bentley Inroads by draping the features onto the existing surface and annotating the features in the cross section views.
Is there a workflow that allows the annotation of feature lines in the cross-section views?
Wiped my whole computer clean, reinstalled Windows 7, Can't reinstall Autocad 2012 student version.

URL....I have a jpg file that I needed to apply some transparency to and saved it as a png file. I now want to delete the jpg file but it's being referenced in several drawings, but I don't know which ones. Is there a way to reverse the function of Reference Manager, ie find all the drawing files that reference my jpg file?
having major issues with sheet sets in Autocad 2013 (actually we're using Autocad MEP 2013... but haven't gotten any responses to my post over in that forum so trying it here too). We use them constantly, and up til now they've worked great. In 2013, we can't get a .dst file to stay valid for more than 2 hours. You can create them & work with them just fine, but once you close & reopen AMEP it says the .dst is invalid, and it creates a new .dst of the same name in the same directory w/ 0kb file size. After that, nothing works... view names, sheet titles, etc., everything that is driven off the sheet set. And of course every time you have to recreate a sheet set, you have to recreate every detail callout, sheet title, detail title, etc. in the set of drawings.
We've installed AMEP 2013 SP1, doesn't make a difference.
All of our machines are Win7 Pro, mixed 32- & 64-bit, with plenty of processor/memory/graphics capability. Our standardization stuff runs off of our network/NAS drive.
i have been working on a DWG (c3d 2012) most of the day, and sure enough, after my last edit in Model space, c3d crashed.
i can remain in model space, but once I try on open the only layout tab, c3d hangs and crashes. i was able to create a new layout in the command line and rebuild my layout, but i still cannot open the original tab without a crash. i ran AUDIT and found 2 errors, but if i allow c3d to fix or delete them, c3d crashes. also, if i run PURGE, c3d crashes.
how i can determine what is at fault or a method to maybe even isolate the problem? maybe a trick?
Having problems with Civil 3D 2010 locking up, it did when I right click in the data shortcut folder to set my working folder. When it locks up and I close Civil 3D 2010, I reopen it and Civil 3D 2010 stops loading at Loading AECC BASE UI, The only way I can use it again is to do a clean sweep uninstall and reinstall 2010. A repair does not work.
Ever since I got back to my desk after theEaster break I have had an odd problem witj C3d 2012.
The pop up names of the buttons along the bottom (snap, grid, osnap etc) are apparently now in Chinese. Tool tips for other tools are also containing a mixture f what appears to be Chines plus corrupted characters.
I was undertaking a cut and fill analysis but the values were very different. Evaluating spot levels the depth was given as 1.2m but the volume surface stated it was only .6m.
After a while I noticed that the master surface had been "corrupted" duing a recovery, all definitions to the controlling corridor and other objects had been removed and a snapshot added with the description "added during recovery".
I had to remove the surface and start from scratch re-building the definitions.

Just upgraded from Civil 3D 2010 32-bit to Civil 3D 2011 64-bit. Over the years several user-defined color books were constructed using the Autocad Color Book Editor. With previous upgrades, these ACB files were simply transferred to the new version and worked OK. However, having upgraded to 2011, when the color books are opened, instead of the original colors, the color pages are corrupted, showing what look like Pantone red, green, and blue colors.
I am looking for a way to set a couple options in the Manual Tune window from the Performance Tuning window (3DCONIG Prompt). More specifically I want to be able to:
Check what the setting for Enable hardware acceleration is (so it can be restored back)Set Enable hardware acceleration offReduce the number of tessellations to cacheReduce both the Surfaces, and Curves tessellation How would I do this from command line? My ultimate goal here is to run these commands in .NET.
I recently transferred all my work from a work computer to my mac at home. i am unable to access my work computer until October as we are having a 'break'. However, I have a deadline for September 15th and I need all my files.Some older files open perfectly fine but I fear there was a problem in downloading-perhaps due to my haste to leave and enjoy the beautiful weather! I tried downloading a Remo Repair software but unfortunately this was unable to launch.
Basic notes:
Created on Windows computer cs5
Trying to open on Mac cs5
Sd card used to transfer-couldn't eject, this may be the problem
Lately I've been finding that I've been having lots of corrupted image files -- many of my jpgs and even my psd's have strange bands of colour/image shifts that are permanent, and many of my tif files are now 'unparseable'.
Here is an example of this kind of corruption. Notice the bands of shifted colour and even shifted pixels:
What can be causing this? I'm worried because this is destroying my library of images. I have everything backed up to DVD which is good because I just checked and those files are fine -- so it is some sort of corruption, not software-related.
I was working on a big tif file 2g at size, I edit it with photoshop through adobe lightroom. Due to unknown reason, when i tried to save the file in photoshop, and I was informed the file is non-accessible. It ends up the file is disappeared from hardisk and I used some recovery software to retrieve the tif files. However, it seems a corrupted tif files which can't open in Photoshop or Irfanview.
the error message I got from photoshop is 'could not complete your request, because it is not the right kind of file'.. it is a tif file with layers.
I had tried to google and search, it seems there is no way to repair a corrupted tif files.
When I render a project selecting an “HDV” setting, the result is corrupted. Only about 40% of the image height is displayed. The bottom 10% of the image is inverted to the top, followed by the next 30%, and the balance (the top of the image) is absent. (Audio is normal.) No difference whether I play these files on the PC or on a PS3.
I am using VideoStudio Pro X2. My source files are video only. I do not use transitions or titles.
I capture the video files with a Canon Vixia HF200. They are MTS files, ranging in size from 10MB to 300MB each. I download them to a Dell Dimension 4600 using a USB 2.0 port.
I create smart proxy files and I am able to edit them normally.
Project properties: ·Duration = 5 to 10 mins ·NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps) ·MPEG files ·24 bits, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps ·Lower Field First ·(DVD-NTSC), 16:9 ·Video data rate: Variable (Max. 8000 kbps) ·LPCM Audio, 48000 Hz, Stereo
I am able to burn them to a DVD normally. Until sometime in March 2010, I also was able to create HD video files normally. Those old projects had the same properties as above. Those old files still play normally. But if I create a new HD video file now, it is corrupted.
Output format = “create video file,” and “HDV 720 – 30p”
This problem affects all “HDV” and “Blu-ray” output formats. Other output formats are OK. The files burn to DVD OK. (I have not tried burning a AVCHD disk lately.)
I downloaded and installed the latest version of DirectX using the link in one of the “Announcements” at the top of this board. This did not solve the problem. (In fact, now if I render a file using HDV 720-30p it does not show at all, and no audio.)
I downloaded and installed the patch for VS Pro X2. This did not solve the problem.
Since I upgraded to Lightroom 4 last week, I've had two occasions where Windows 7 operating system at boot tells me I have corrupt files on the separate 2TB drive I use to store Lightroom catalog and photos on. One difference between my LR3 vs LR4 settings was that I turned on the option to write XMP data to files per advice from Adobe evangelist that this is a better backup strategy in case LR catalog gets corrupt. Wondering whether the LR 4 background process to write out XMP is causing the problem.
It might be a self inflicted wound, as last night, I was importing iPad screenshot PNG files into Bridge, batch renaming them and then exporting them to hard drive as JPG (when is Lightroom going to support PNG?) and synchronizing that folder in LR4 so that I can view in LR4. Maybe the fact that I have LR4 and Bridge open at the same time and doing some operations corrupted them? LR4 got stuck at 1% progress in creating previews, so left the computer on overnight and when I come back in morning, black screen of death. When reboot, says I have to check that drive and finds lots of corrupt record segments. Never had this problem with LR3 and Bridge open at same time before LR4 and turning on the option to write XMP data to files.
I use a fully registered Lightroom 5.3 with my Canon 5D Mark III, and I have this kind of corruption on some of my CR2 files from times to times. If i reimport the .cr2 file in another catalog or even on another the resulting file is still corrupted.
The wierdest thing is that the original import was successful and I successfully exported it several times correctly. The corruption should have happens afterward:
This is absolutely inacceptable from a professional software.
PS: I had this kind of curruption with an old version of Lightroom with my previous pentax K7d, but I though this was past
I've been getting about one or two of these per 3000 photos recently, and obviously it's not a huge deal until it's the ONE image you wanted. I've gone back to the memory card and the file is fine when opened from the memory card and fine when I re-copy the image. Sometimes it's just the preview that looks like this, but when I open it in develop mode it's fine. The file also shows up corrupted when navigate to the folder and open it in photoshop.
This is a rather new phenomenon for me, last year in 125,000 images probably 3 total, but in the last month (10,000 photos) I've had 6. Is it the new version (4.4) of lightroom? Is it my hardrive? Is it my card reader? The only thing I think I've ruled out is my memory cards and camera.
Ok I did this graphic a few years back for a website but now my original files have been corrupted and are not able to be opened. I have lots of similar fonts like ethnocentric but it is not quite right. I have also tried uploading it to font identifier etc.
I just downloaded lightroom 5.4 the other day and today was the first time I went to download images with it.
I could review all my images before I plugged my card into the card reader and attempted to download them, when I opened the import window in lightroom the first image on the card had a preview, but it was greyed out and the rest of the images came up with the .CR2 icon and when I tried to import them I got an error message saying that the files cannot be read.
I tried ejecting the card and putting it back in my camera, but now I can't see the images on my camera either or save them manually to my hard drive.
The files are from a Canon 5D mk II and I shot all the images in RAW with no JPG's.
So my Photoshop CS6 is slowly corrupting files. I open psds to find nothing but a giant whit wall. I zoom out and the white disappears but then I can't zoom in any further than 50%. My rulers however, show that I'm zooming in. Then when I select another layer... it snaps to % I should be looking at. (Also... this particular file won't give me a preview in the icon on my desktop. Related?) This is not happening with all my files. Just the ones surrounding this particular project.
My Photoshop crashed in the middle of saving. There's now a tmp file in its place. I tried opening it with Photoshop but it got an error. Is there any recovery program for getting back corrupted save files?
"extrusion file is bad or corrupted" error when a file is chosen, photoshop then "stops working" and windows shuts it down. I then have to restart to make another attempt.
