AutoCAD Inventor :: Add-In Not Loading In Windows 7 64-bit OS?
Jul 5, 2012
I have a bit of problem. I have created a Addin for Inventor using Visual Studion 2010 Professional.
My Addin Works fine for
Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 (64-bit OS)
With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2012, 32-Bit Edition
Now I need to Deploy the addin on another Machine with below configuration,
Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1(64 bit OS)
Autodesk inventor Professional 2012, 64-Bit Edition.
I tried to load my addin, it doesnot load, I tried to load it manually by Goint to Tools->Add-In and selecting my addin and selected "Loaded", Even then its not loading..
I Have Lightroom V2 on my old XP PC. I have a new PC with Windows 7 and wish to buy Lightroom 4 Upgrade. Is this possible w/o loading my old LR V2 on new PC ?
Have CS3 photoshop on Windows 7 platform that crashes when loading jpg from email. It installs fine and then on several occassions when opening an email photo, it will freeze and gives message Licensing for this product has stopped working You cannot use this product at this time and must remove and install again
I have the entire subscription of 'Corel 6X'. I have been using it for a few months with no problems, even after I did the 8.1 update. Now all programs will load and run except for 'Draw 6X', it starts to load and then it will start to 'load environment' and then crash. As I said above, every other part of the suite open and run fine.
I can give you no information about updates or version as it won't load so I could check for updates. I searched for other post, and it returned no other similar problems listed for 'Draw 6X'. If I get no answers I'll just un/re install that program itself and see if that fixes things.
I am on a Dell PC with plenty of everything running Win 8.1 64 bit and running the online yearly subscription of 'CorelDraw 6X' 64 bit version that was up to date and working fine on 8.1 fine for more than a month. Now the 'splash' screen shows and gets to 'loading environment' and then the quaint Win window comes out 'There is a problem and windows has to close this program'.
When opening an assembly document via the API (inventorApplication.Documents.Open("path-to-document")), the browser pane and ribbon look like no document has been opened, even though the active environment (inventorApplication.UserInterfaceManager.ActiveEnvironment.DisplayName) is "Assembly".
I have a user that just recently discovered that the add-in manager does not load any more. I has been working fine for some time.
And I mean that we can't even open the add-in manager. The button is non responsive. I have tried to open it from the windows start menu and I get the message " can't create apprentice server".
Of course this effects all of the ad-ins including the CC and the vault.
I can log in as administrator and everything works fine so the install is good. I'm assuming it's got something to do with his user account settings and on that vein I tried to delete his Autodesk settings in both the registry and his user folder but with no luck.
I am trying to load CATIA v5 files into Inventor 2013, which works great. However, the materials applied to the object in CATIA are not being imported. Instead the colors from the "Properties" dialog in CATIA are being applied. Is it possible to somehow maintain the materials? Since the constraints aren't imported either, I would have to reapply the materials for every position of this certain object (for renders), because adding the constraints in Inventor is too much work to be doing again.
I recently downloaded the student version of Inventor Professional 2013 (64-bit). I made some parts and ran some stress analysis simulations on the parts. I restarted Inventor after running a simulation and upon the reopen, none of the add-ins on the Environments tab were there and the Add-Ins manager does not open. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the entire program, even tried installing different model years of Inventor; none of the versions load the add-ins and the add-in manager fails to load.

I have an Addin with several pieces of functionality that I have been working on for over a year now and have had no problems with it loading. Yesterday I was working on a bug in a function and when I set a break point it was not breaking in the correct location. Possably some miss match between the source and .pdb files. I tried a clean build but still could not get the break point to be correctly aligned with my source code.
I tried to unregister and re-register the Addin with regasm but no luck. I then decided to search the registry for the name of my Addin and was supprized to find thousnads of registry entries. I then decided to clean my registry of all occurances of the Addin name. After removing all occurances of my Addin from the registry my Addin would not load.
I tried putting a message box in the first line of the Activate sub but it never executes. I made the assumption that it was a problem with the registry and changed the GUID value. When I did a rebuild I got the following error:
Error 1 The "UnregisterAssembly" task failed unexpectedly. System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80030002): could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80030002 (STG_E_FILENOTFOUND)) at Microsoft.Build.Tasks.NativeMethods.UnregisterTypeLib(Guid& guid, Int16 wMajorVerNum, Int16 wMinorVerNum, Int32 lcid, SYSKIND syskind) at Microsoft.Build.Tasks.UnregisterAssembly.Unregister(String assemblyPath, String typeLibPath) at Microsoft.Build.Tasks.UnregisterAssembly.Execute() at Microsoft.Build.Framework.ITask.Execute() at Microsoft.Build.BackEnd.TaskExecutionHost.Microsoft.Build.BackEnd.ITaskExecutionHost.Execute() at Microsoft.Build.BackEnd.TaskBuilder.ExecuteInstantiatedTask(ITaskExecutionHost taskExecutionHost, TaskLoggingContext taskLoggingContext, TaskHost taskHost, ItemBucket bucket, TaskExecutionMode howToExecuteTask, Boolean& taskResult) AnthroAddIn
I ran the build again and did not get the error.This Addin is loaded on every CAD workstation in the company using an install program written with the Inno Setup Compiler. I installed the Addin using the installer and the Addin still will not load on my machine.
What is the best approch to debugging an Addin that will not load?When is it necessary to re-register your Addin using regasm?Is it possable that this problem is being caused a problem with the registry?I have read a number of posts regarding problems with Addin's not loading but have not found anything simmilar to this.
My Content Center Add-In is not loading in Inventor Pro 2012. It's listed as unloaded in the Add-In manager (see below), and, of course, "Place from Content Center" isn't shown as an option on any of the menus. If I double-click on Centent Center in the Add-In Manager, the word "Unloaded" changes to "Loaded" and I don't get any errors. It looks like it should have loaded fine. But then if I close the Add-In Manager and open it again, it has gone back to "Unloaded". I haven't found anything that can restore the Content Center functionality.
I have installed Inventor Pro 2013, and this could have been around when the Inventor 2012 Content Center broke. I'm not positive about the timing... If I start Inv 2013, the Content Center works fine in it.
What to do before uninstalling 2013 and/or reinstalling 2012?
I have an issue where an addin loads once the first time Inventor is opened. If the addin is unloaded and reloaded via the Addins dialog and no documents are open it loads once. If the addin is reloaded while a file is open is reloads twice.
I came to the conclusion it is loading multiple times because the it seems to go through the Activation method of the addin twice. When is the Activation method called during loading an addin?

I am into tracking solar array's. So designing for high winds is paramount. I wonder if Inventor will have a package for analysis of wind loads. It is a different kind of FEA. Call it a 3-D distributed load.
Recently we have switched from VBA to iLogic code. We have stripped out all of the VBA code, but when parts and assemblies are opening there is a big delay and the words "Loading VBA Project" is displayed at the bottom of Inventor.
Is iLogic or some facet of Inventor 2012 still using VBA Projects? If not, then can I disable this to shorten the amount of time it takes to open models? If possible how would I do this?
After downloading the Autodesk Inventor 2013, I was forced to download the hotfix. I completed the download, and started up Inventor. My force closed crash report directed me to the most updated update, which I then installed to no avail. I've sent an additional crash report, but I've yet to recieve any feedback. When I go to either load the .ipt blank file, or even close the welcome center tab (to be able to access the tools to troubleshoot) It shuts down.

We have 13 machines that are identical hardware and software; Windows 7 and the Autodesk Product Design Suite 2012 as well as the Vault 2012 Client. Two of these machines are exhibiting the following behavior: Connected to our LAN with access to the internet not loading Vault on startup Inventor loads in 68 seconds.Disconnected from our LAN with no access to the internet not loading Vault on startup Inventor loads in <10 seconds. I have tested this with our AV turned on and off with no changes in the above noted behavior. These two machines loaded Inventor 2011 in repsectable times ~<30 seconds.
Now this tells me that when Inventor is loading it is trying to go somewhere when there is a network connection. But where and what can I do to make it stop?
my animation takes around two seconds to load within my browser. Is there a way to display a loading symbol such as spinning circle, that will show the animation is loading, then disappear once it is ready to display?
I'm currently working on a site which is almost 95% complete. The loading time for the site is approx 7-10 seconds which seems to be slow. I have placed a preloader but that doesn't seem to be coming up while the site is loading.
Is there anyway to speed up the loading time. Like some code that will tell it load specific number of frames first and then load the rest in the background?
I have compressed the images that are being used but cannot compress further as they may lose the quality.I've got the preloader working and now it seems to be showing up while the site is loading. Is there any way to speed up the loading time.
when I am trying to enter information into any given pop-up window. As I am entering information into the text field, the window will lock out. It behaves as if the mouse has been clicked outside of the Inventor window. It appears to occur once per minute or so (with no activity on my part). The window just requires that I click on it with the mouse again.
I am trying to write a rule for restricting save rights to a .ipt or .iam file. I am just starting out with ilogic and have very basic coding experience.What I would like is for the rule to read the windows login username and depending on the result (User A) displays a radio message box asking if if the file should be restricted.
If the file is to be restricted, then the rule should allow only User A to save the file. Hopefully that makes sense.I have posted the code I have so far. I don't know how to get the windows username so have substituted this with username for the moment.
If Username = "User A" ThenRestrictAccess = InputRadioBox("Should this file be restricted?", "Yes", "No", RestrictAccess, Title := "Restrict Access")End IfIf RestrictAccess = True And Username = "User A" ThenThisDoc.SaveElseThisDoc.Document.SaveAsEnd If
When I want to open my inventor files on windows explore or my computer window then i click double on file (ipt, iam, idw) then my files opening in different inventor program windows.
I mean i have a open innetor window and i want to see in single inventor program window when i click double on file. But now always opening new inventor applications. Then i lost time and memory.I have Windows 7 (64 bit) and Autodak inventor 2012.
I have is that after so long thumbnails in windows explorer stop loading just shows generic Autodesk image(.ipt, .iam, .stp, .idw, .dwg ect.). Causing me to be unsure on which file I'm actually opening. Causing me to have to restart the computer.
What is weird is you are able to see the thumbnails in the thumbnail of the parent folder but when you open the folder they aren't shown. If you open up properties it shows a thumbnail.
Closing and opening a new window doesn't fix this error.This was an issue I had experienced with 2011 and am still experiencing with 2013.
I've been doing some research on new computers for the office and my boss came to me about potentially switching from Windows OS to Mac OS. In my opinion I'm ok with whatever OS we use but I don't know much about MAC Computers. I have done some research on them and have read of customers using Inventor 2012 on Macs but that’s the extent of it.
1) Are there any issues that you've seen when running Boot Camp or Parallels and which do you think is user friendly.
2) How well are you able to transfer files from a MAC PC to a Windows PC then vise versa? (Taking work home etc.)
3) Have you had any problems transferring your library of information from Vault over to a Mac? (Checking in and out of Vault)
4) Our company use's DXF's made from Flat patterns that we transfer over to a Salvagnini machines that use's windows.
There's been an interesting conversation going around my office for the last few days about switching to all Microsoft devices in the near future. A look around the AD site shows all the apps for the App Store and Google Play but not Windows Phone. I use a bunch of AD apps on my iPad and iPhone that are a "must have" now. A quick Google search brings up a bunch of articles but I haven't seen anything definitive from AD. Does the AD apps (most importantly SketchBook Mobile, Autodesk 360, ForceEffects) are coming out for that platform anytime in the future?

I don't know, what's the correct code, for getting the name of an assembly component by selecting it in the graphic window.The user should have the ability to slect an component and Inventor will give you the name of this component (filename, Screenname or whatever )
Is there a service pack in the pipeline that will allow Inventor 2013 to run on Windows 8.1? It was working fine on 8 but crashes on the loading screen now Ive upgraded to 8.1. Upgrading to 2014 is not an option for me as my professor uses 2013 software and he will not be able to open 2014 files.
Is there a way to Auto Attach a window when you create the detail view. I don't want to keep creating the view then have to turn around and attach it. That seams like way more steps than it should be.
