How do you find a file that has been replaced?

I might have accidentally replaced a word file with the same name from something else, and now I can't find the original. Is the original gone for good or is there some place else that I can check? It is a school paper and I am freaking out it is due the end of this week.

He meant, do you have a system backup via Time Machine, Carbon Copy Cloner, etc.?  That's the shortest way to restore your complete system and data when (not if) your hard drive dies.
Have a nice day.

  • How to open a RAW file that has been created with Photoshop CS5.5?

    I did some HDRs and when back in Photoshop CS 5.5 I tried to save them (16 bit colur depth).
    GIven the option to save the image as .RAW file I did that but now:
    Which program can be used to open those Photoshop created RAW files???
    When I try to open one of these files with Photoshop I just get noise.

    1.  Photoshop CAN open (flat) PSD files through Camera Raw, no problem.
    2. There are those of us who have used every version of Photoshop, going back almost 20 years, and who *still* haven't used them all.  I just don't see that as any kind of problem. 
    3. Lastly:  You have been asserting here all along that Photoshop won't re-open a 16 bit .raw file properly.  That's absolutely wrong.  If you get the bit depth, number of channels, and pixel counts right (i.e., the same as when the image was saved) it WILL open properly.  The thing is, with the Photoshop raw format there really is no metadata in the file, meaning YOU have to put all those numbers in.  It's not a general purpose "push one button and done" kind of format - it's a specialty format, as Chris noted above.

    1) will try that out
    2) I am just curious and like to try out all functions and see what it does and how it works.
    3) guess I have to play arould with it a bit more to find the right settings that allow me to save and re-open the file correctly.
    BTW: when writing messages here my FF browser doesnt show any cursor in the text field which makes it difficult to see where I am. Does everyone have that problem?
    Just noticed: I have to click on to something in the pulldown menu and later the cursor appears. I have the same problem with facebook. Have to click somewhere else first and then go back to the text field to make the cursor appear.

  • How do i edit a file that has been converted to word

    I have converte a pdf to a word doc. how do I get to it and how do i edit it

    Hello kairle,
    if I understand you in the right way you made a YourName.doc from a YourName.pdf file.
    Therefore you need to open and edit the contents of this file text editors such as WORD itself, Notepad, WordPad or similar.

    Do you have a backup of your iPhone?   If so, do a restore and whatever Notes were backed up should reappear.
    You will lose any changes made since that backup though.

  • How to get PDF file that has been transformed into docx into my filing system so I can work on it???

    How can I get the PDF file that was transformed into a docx file into my filing system to be able to work on it and translate it as the customer requested?

    THanks for your reply.
    Well what happens is I bought the program. It gives you a button to click,
    you log in and then a box opens up asking you to select the file, I go into
    my filing system (in Windows explorer) select the file, and the program
    converts it into docx, my choice.  I can read it there and when I try to
    copy and paste it into my file where the PDF version is saved, it behaves
    like an "image", and I can't save it.... or it saves likes something you
    save on the internet, so you have to go into internet every time you want
    to see it.    I have also pressed any amount of buttons to see if it will
    give me the option to save it any other way, and have found nothing.  What
    I would need is a file in docx.format that I can edit.  People send me
    things in PDF and sometimes I can just copy it off the PDF file and save it
    in WOrd, then I can translate it for them. But sometimes the PDF file
    doesnt allow me to copy the text.  If it is in image form, I cannot work on
    it.  It means printing it, so I can copy type it into Word... and for that
    I certainly wouldnt need to buy a program.  Its just double the work and
    ends up that the job takes twice as long.!
    Sorry  if I am a bit dumb with informatics.  But I simply could not find
    any way whatever to  copy the PDF file that was transformed into Word, in a
    format that would enable me to edit it.
    Kindest regards,

  • How do I find corrupt file that would be disallowing proper exporting of movie?

    How do I find corrupt file that would be disallowing proper exporting of movie?

    I usually start by exporting to AME (as opposed to encoding "in-process" by clicking Export in the Export Settings dialog). Then watch the preview in AME's Encoding panel to see where it chokes. Adding an adjustment layer over the whole sequence with the Timecode effect applied--and scaled up to full frame width--can really help isolate the location.
    That approach can be a pain in cases where it chugs away for a long time before encoding fails. In those cases, I use a divide-and-conquer approach:
    Is it the video or the audio?: Disable all video tracks and encode. Then re-enable the video and mute all audio tracks
    Where in the timeline is the problem: Export the first half, then the second half (using In/Out Points). Then keep dividing the half that fails until you've narrowed it down to a relative handful of clips.

  • FCPX, How do I reconnect a video file that has been modified or over written?

    FCPX, How do I reconnect a video file that has been modified or over written?
    As an animator, I am constantly modifying and overwriting movies files that have already been imported into the Final Cut time line. In FCP7, I could easily modify and update movie files and have those changes appear in the timeline without the need to reimport and re-edit those clips, but FCPX seems to lose it's connection with any modified or overwritten file, making all the editing work I've done to these files worthless.
    Does anyone know of a way to reconnect to a modified or overwritten file? Because, this one single issue makes FCPX completely worthless to me.

    Try:

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • How do you find a table that doesn't have a specific word in it.

    I have two questions.
    questions 1
    How do you find a table that doesn't have a specific word in it by using a query on the whole database?
    questions 2
    How would i list all of my cars names in my database not showing duplicates?
    I have tried, tried and tried some more to get both of these, but I guess i don't know how to query a specific word.
    I also don't know how to query everything in just 1 column name.
    If anyone could help with these that would be great I have been trying queries for over an hour now and no luck.
    Thanks

    I tried the all_tab_columns, just like you did it, however that just gives me the column name I am looking for what is not in a column.
    For example I need to find all the tables where mustang is not = 'red' but using a single query i need to find all of the tables.
    As for number 2
    I am looking for something like this
    select distinct column_name
    from all_tab_columns
    where column_name ='AcertainColumn';Now I'm even more confused. In your example, is MUSTANG a column name? Or is it the value of a MODEL column in the CARS table? And how could that possibly relate to something that exists in multiple tables?
    If your data model is at all reasonable, I would expect that you would just want
    SELECT *
      FROM cars
    WHERE model = 'Mustang'
       AND color != 'Red'but I can't see how this would relate to data stored in multiple tables.
