Illustrator :: File Recovery Routine
May 15, 2013
So my time has come and I have just been bitten by the Illegal Operand failure upon opening a document. The doc was created in AiCS3 but I'm trying to follow the recovery procedure in AiCS6, described here: URL>....The problem is that at step 3 when I'm holding down the three keys, and hitting Open, Windows 7 is triggering the country suffix behavior and appends the country code to the selected file name, in my case - .pl. This makes my file selection invalid (myfile.ai.pl). I guess this comes from a web browser (I have almost all of them installed).
What lead the file to corruption was the spiral tool. WHen I drew the shape, all of a sudden the entire pasteboard (usually filled with dense, tiny checkerboard pattern) got filled with the stroke or fill color. I saved the file and that was it.

Had a crash eariler today and saved the A.R.M. file through the dialog box. Where again does it save to or what file type is it? I've searched the Corel Program folder but don't see it, isn't it in the user folder or some temp folder for CorelDraw?

I was subject to a 10 minute power outage and lost the computer. when power returned, I tried to recover my corelDraw X4 file. No Luck. Inspite of the "backup" being scheduled every 5 minutes. the one backup file was 1 hour old. The documentation said that the CorelDraw system stored a recovery file elsewhere and that I should go to the "File Recovery Dialog Box and "Click" the recovery file. Where is this "File Recovery Dialog Box" ?

Had a system crash. I had Norton 360 using a slave HD as my automatic backup source. To reinstall windows, master HD was overwritten. I thenfound out Norton 360 didn't save my autocad files to the slave HD. Their definition of "other files" didn't cover dwg files unless you did an extremely detailed setup process, which, was not in the Norton instructions. Anyways, local computer service was able to recover about 60% of the "lost" autocad files.
Of those recovered files, about 60% will not open up. Only get a message "not a valid file" The file details show its an autocad file, its size, and the last date of revison.

I have successfully saved my file, shut down Photoshop without incident, and yet upon opening CS6 it starts opening the latest autorecovery file. I need to have autorecovery on for the work loss protection it provides, but it can get confusing to have an Autorecovery file open instead of the file I had meant to open. ( This is also happening on a colleague's computer.)
I'm running Mac OS X version 10.8.3
2x2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
64 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
CS6 Version 13.0.4
It's happened several times with a variety of files. They are all Grayscale layered PSB's, in the 1.5 - 3 GB range.

I wrote this small program to automate plotting a drawing to pdf. Everything work fine except I cannot figure out how to allow it to let me pick where I want the file created and what I want to call it. In this routine, the "" at the 3rd from the end place will just automatically name the file and put it in the parent folder. If I replace the "" with pause, it lets me change the name, but will not let me choose the location.
What I'm looking for is for a dialogue box to pop up (explorer style) that will let me choose a location and name the file. This is what happens if you do it "long hand" inside ACAD, how to do it in the code.
(defun C:clpdf ()
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(setvar "osmode" 0)
[Code]....

This issue begins when I use the "aectoacad"-command.
The file that I get is rather small. Saving the same file after using audit and -purge commands will make it larger, I don't get it.
I've seen a hotfix but I already have the latest update: [URL]
AutoCad 2011 & Civil3D 2011. Product Version 3.
EliteBook 8560w
Intel i7 CPU 2820QM @ 2.3GHz

I have a simple lisp routine that loads everytime one of my users opens a new drawing, It sets the printer paths, sets the template paths and sets a bunch of environment variables
One thing I would like to add to this lisp routine is the ability to add support file search paths.
Is there a simple setenv variable for this? or is it more complicated?

I am looking for a Lisp routine that will convert all Mleaders within a drawing file to Qleaders.
AutoCAD 2013
Reason: The Mleaders are causing issues with the viewing software that we have to use with our drawing management program.

Create a routine that looks for a block based on a portion of that block name, using a specified path or search path.
For example, block to search for is BLOCKABC123, so if someone inputs ABC or 123 as a block name, it will locate that block within that folder and inserts it into the drawing at a user specified location.
Ideally, if there is a check in that if it finds more than one match, then perhaps it flags or prompts you to choose 1, 2, or 3 option which block to use. But I can live without this special function if it requires too much time to code.

I'm testing out Photoshop CS6 to see if there's much a difference between CS5, and i'm noticing that there's no Recovery mode in Camera RAW for my file, they seemed to have changed Camera RAW a lot.
Is there no Recovery setting anymore? I have been using this since CameraRAW essentials, which Adobe ended up purchasing so i had to use Camera RAW.

How do I get the recovery slider to show up in ACR? When I open an image there is no recovery slider under my exposure slider. When I open images previously edited in Photoshop Elements the slider appears in CS6 ACR. I want it there all the time as default.

After a Motherboard failure and partial HD failure I'm attempting to rebuild and replace lost software.
I had originally loaded the boxed version of Video Studio 11 Plus and later did an upgrade to Video Studio Pro X2 via a download from Corel...previous system was XP.
From what I've read it appears that I will need to: Reload the Boxed version of VS 11Plus, and then download the upgrade version of VS Pro X2 from Corel's website. I can view my serial number of the VS Pro X2 on Corel's website from when it was registered. The new OS on this computer is Windows 7 64Bit. Does this seem feasible, or is there perhaps a better way.
Also it appears some of my VS Database files are still recoverable from the old HD. Should I be able to import them into the new?

I am attempting to recover text behind black marker...
The text itself is black (written in marker), and is overlapped with a blob of black marker (again with the same marker in black).
How would I go about recovering this?
My attempts in Photoshop gave me very distorted words that were not readable.

I need to recover a B&W, fairly high-res image made up of only black and white pixels (a halftone, but individual pixels, not circular patterns for printing). The goal is to make it look more or less like a regular greyscale, so it loses that grainy look when printed. The detail is there, it's just muddled by this.
The best solution I've found so far is a gaussian blur to mix everything together. Sadly, this leaves everything rather noisy. Is there a better way than just blue + noise removal + unsharp mask? Or is this the standard prescription for such an image.

After a system recovery on my HP, the Photoshop Elements 6 program will not reinstall. All other programs are up and running. The install from the disk appears to be successful, but I don't get the window to enter the serial number. When I click on the icon, nothing happens. Uninstall and reinstall results in same situation. I have Windows Vista 2007. Adobe gave it a case #184059543, but will not support it due to it being an "old" program.

Since 3years my partner is using Lightroom.
Last year he had done a format C, but because he had recently changed the names of his multiple hard disks, he formatted the wrong one.
He had erased all of our pictures by mistake...
We were able to recover some of them but their are some problems, we can see the pictures in lightroom but then we see some warnings and cant change/access the pictures.
Some pictures have a question mark next to them (warning is: picture missing) and some have an exclamation point behind it (warning is: some problems have occur in lightroom while reading this picture).
I am not at all a lightroom user and even less a computer expert, but since all of my daughters pictures (since she is born) were lost, i hope to be able te retrieve some of them...

I have read several forums about how to disable the auto-recovery feature. However, I don't want to disable the auto-recovery because I like that it saves my work in case of crash.
It's just annoying that every time I open Photoshop all those previous files auto open. Is there anyway to make it stop? I read that there is a file that you delete, but will that stop the auto-recovery feature?

Background: I work IT here at a trophy shop and we do a lot of artwork for plaques and acrylic/glass awards. I am versed in IT but not CorelDraw in-particular.
Problem: One artist tells me that her CorelDraw seems to randomly crash and display "Recovery manager wizard" "Application has become unstable" and after files are saved the application closes out.
