My computer with Windowsxp has AutoCad LT 2005. It's locked up and I can't get to my files. Fortunately, I have most of the AutoCad drawings I created backed up. I'm looking at a new laptop with Windows 8 and will purchase AutoCad LT 2012 or 2013. Question: Will I be able to load the drawings created in 2005 into 2012 AutoCad?
View 3 RepliesDrawing created in AutoCAD LT 2005 - in AutoCAD LT 2013, several layers are not present. Tuned off all filtering, etc. Noted that some blocks will not appear in layouts even though the layer they are on is not frozen in the layout.
Not clear why layers in LT 2005 will not show in LT 2013 I attached offending file.I am self-taught and LT 2013 is a little daunting for me.
Forgot to mention that layer AX-COL-SYMB-2 does not show up in LT 2013. Also, block for column line symbols (circle/column numbers) will not show in layouts in LT 2013, but will in LT 2005.
Is there any other way to import MDT 2005 models to Inventor 2013 with having MDT 2005 platform loaded.
If not, where might I find MDT 2005. I have looked everywhere and it seems to be non existant. It would be alot faster than rebuilding anew in inventor and engineers hate to redo something alredy done correctly.
I have recently upgraded from AutoCAD 2012 to 2013 and we have an excel file that keeps track of all our drawings. In the file there is a hyperlink to open the file in AutoCAD (click the Drawing Name). It has worked fine till we upgraded to 2013. Is there a setting or security issue I need to address to be able to open the Hyperlinks?

Specs of this computer (it's pretty old I know)

So I formatted this computer and installed windows 7 64x pro, installed all the software etc. This computer is also part of a domain. Problem now is opening some AutoCAD files on the server, edit the file then hit the x in the corner to close it, we hit yes to save it then the whole computer just freezes. It doesn't happen with all files, just some and I can't work out what the problem is. ALSO when copying some CAD files from one project folder on the server to another project folder on the server it freezes. No problems copying files to the local computer/desktop, just server-server. The graphics card driver is up to date etc.

View 9 Replies View Relatedmy app permits to the users select multiple DWG files, inserting them into a MSHFLEXGRID.
After this the user can select a DWT file and store in a matrix (PC) all its AcadPlotConfigurations.
The user can select distinct Page Layout for each DWG file selected.
Then running the code below, each file is opened in ACAD and then printed using the specific Page Layout.
This was running very good in ACAD 2002. After migrate to ACAD 2005 only the first file is printed. The others DWG files return FALSE to the PlotToDevice command.
Is it missing some command ?Does ACAD 2005 need anything extra to run ?
Obs: the DWT Page Layouts were created for MODELs and the files to be printed are using only the model space too.

This morning I opened AutoCad LT 2005 and was going to print a map with multiple layers. Everytime I tried to open the layers tool AutoCad LT 2005 would lock up. I would go to the task manager and it showed that it was still running but I could not do anything in the program. I closed Autocad LT from the task manager and opened up a blank document and tried to view layers and it locked up once again. I re-installed AutoCad LT 2005 from original disk and still I have the same behavior.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have drawn several shapes including simple ones like rectangles with the corners filleted to 2" radii and ones shaped like a jelly bean using a combination of polylines, straightlines and arcs.
In my ACAD LT 2005 files, the arcs, fillets and polylines all appear very smooth (I set the display setting to 10,000) after I saw that the arcs had noticeable facets (like a diamond) when zoomed in.
My problem is that when I send these DXF files to my CNC router technician and he imports them into his program (EnRoute V.5). All of those arcs, fillets, and polylines still have those facets in them and do not appear smooth. When we actually cut plywood from these files, the pieces are in fact choppy.
My question- besides the display settings, is there a setting that I can change that will increase the number of control points that make up these curves that would smooth these facets out?
I've been running ADT 2005 successfully on windows XP Pro for a year, but suddenly after running the backup program in windows XP, I effectively cannot startup and run AutoCAD for all the "Resource Manager Errors".
Checking the Autodesk knowledge base, the problem is recognized, but the solution does not appear to be available to me. Here is what Autodesk has to say:
Startup error: Cannot load resource only dll
Published date: 2004-10-21
ID: TS100289
Applies to:
Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005
Issue
When you attempt to launch a session of Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005, the following error message is displayed:
Cannot load resource only dll
Solution: This error message typically occurs on systems running a backup software, such as Backup Software Verita 9.1. This software runs a remote agent that causes a conflict with the loading of ARX and DLL files associated with Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005. In these instances, disabling the remote agent will restore the ability to launch and utilize Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005.
*[back to me] - I've searched for the aformentioned "remote agent" on my system, but to no avail. Meanwhile, I cannot run ADT as it asks for missing files at startup and at every command.

I'm trying to bring a lsp routine up to date and it's almost as if I'm a newbie again. A dialog image worked okay in 2005 but in version 2012 displays poorly. So I made a new slide in 2012 and saved it to the same name as the old one, HobMasterDialog.sld, and placed it in the same folder as the old one. However, when the dialog appears the rectangular area for the image is blank.
What am I forgetting?
This is related to AutoCAD 2005 only:
I have a custom menu file which is NOT located in the support path but rather is on a server drive for all AC 2005 user's to access. When I load this menu in AC 2005 and then restart, it is gone and has to be reloaded. This is happening for all 2005 users in this office. With AC 2009 we use CUI and that custom file is also located on the server, not in the support path, but the 2009 machines are working fine. It is only the AC 2005 users who keep loosing their menu item each morning.
I have done extensive searching on this and it appears to be a common problem but the thing which is also common to all the posts and articles I read on it is that none of them offer a resolution which actually works.

I have recently installed a copy of Autodesk Product Design Suite Ultimate 2013 and am having problems with assemblies in Inventor turning into educational versions. When I was at Purdue University I used the free educational version of Autodesk Inventor. I recently uninstalled Inventor, deleted the autodesk folders in program files, program data, and my documents folders.
Then I installed this professional version. Everything works great until i use something from the content center. Once a bolt is placed in the assembly the entire assembly becomes educational when I open it again.

nstall of CS2 on my Win7 64bit machine and in the process I find that CS2 is no longer supported, (no big surprise,) and CS2 may have issues with 64bit.
I only really use Photoshop, so I'm thinking maybe I should look at why I should or shouldn't upgrade. (Amazon has the upgrade @ $153.xx USD or something like that at the moment.)
I do original art, inputting drawings and manipulating them in Photoshop, as well as working with digi photos. Worth the upgrade?What's new that I should be aware of?
I have CS3 and ultimately want to upgrade. In the short term, I need to deactivate the computers that previously had CS3 on them. I don't even have the computers anymore. I will then just reload my existing copy of CS3, get it re-established and move on from there. What is the simple way to do this?
