Can't find a raw file that was just on my fash card. need help.

I shoot raw/jpg.  I viewed in Digital Photo professional and transferred a Tiff to photoshop. I saved the image on a seperate disc. when I opened and tried to save again I received an error saying I didn'thave permission. I finally saved the psd version by changing the name of the picture. when I went back to the raw file on my flash card it was gone.  when I went back to the tiff file that was gone to. the only file I have left is the jpg back up and the psd version.  All the other pictures are still on both the flash card and my backup drive except this one. I've done recovery searches and they recover everything i've deleted from the flash card except the file I need.  I don't understand why this happend. I've tried searching for hidden files etc. I didn't delete this file. the recovery program shows that it is there it just won't get it. it gets everything else but not this one.  both the raw and the tiff files disappeared from two different drives. I want to get the raw file back.  Help!

Recovery programs can only recover file that have beed deleted when the media space they occupied has not reused and written over.  So if the recovery program did not recover your images. I would be willing to bet some of the space the image occupied has been written over.  So it can not be recovered even though its delete directry enter can be read its data is no longer intact.
Without a system trace you have to rack your brain the remenber all you did.  To get a clue to what wrote to your flash card. Its best to just copy file off flash cards onto your hard disk and remove the card from the card reader with the files still on the flash card.  After processing your images on your computer its a simple quick process to format the flash card in camera.

  • I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get the error message that adobe could not

    I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get an adobe error message that it can not print with an ok to check and when i do I get another adobe error message that says I did not select a page to print. I have downloaded the latest adobe download.  I forwarded the email to my husband and he printed the document just fine.

    This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
    For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

    Ps: which jdev version do you use?

  • In Blurb trying to upload an album that I have prepared in Adobe, but I can't find any Adobe files that way.

    I am in Blurb, trying to upload an album that I have prepared in Adobe ELements 10.  To upload I need to navigate in my computer to whatever Adobe folder has the album, but I can't find any Adobe files that way.  So I wanted to save the album to
    an external drive where I could be sure to find them for the upload
    But when I tried to copy the photo album, the dialog box said that the photos will be deleted from the main program.  I didn't like the sound of that, so I chose "Backup" which seems to have copied everything from Adobe to my eternal drive, not just the photo album that I want.  To make matters worse, but exported folder named for my photo album is not the group of photos that I assembled in Adobe.
    How do I upload directly from Adobe the program on my hard drive so I can be sure it is the correct assemblage of photos?

    The album photos are just the originals; there are no special copies in the album--it's just a list. Select the photos in the album, then go to File>Export as New Files and send the new copies where you want them.

  • I Just converted my iPhoto library to Photos. Now I can't find my RAW files. I need to have all the images in my old library show up in their RAW format.

    I Just converted my iPhoto library to Photos. Now I can't find my RAW files. I need to have all the images in my old library show up in their RAW format.

    Unfortunately no - Photos use extensions and the vendor (adobe) will have to implement the extension to allow external edits in PS or PSE
    For now you must export the photo, edit and then import - not great but a work arond
    And you can continue to use iPhoto until Photos meets your needs - launch it in your applications folder - if you need assistance on this see Why won't my iPhotos open?

  • Can't find any raw files to convert when I am using Adobe DNG converter

    Recently I purchased a new Olympus XZ-1 camera. I shoot exclusively RAW pictures (raw files for this camera are called .orf). Then when I tried to import these .orf files in the organizer of Phtoshop Element 8 it was imposible, nor then I could see those pictures in the organizer. By surfing on diffrent forums, I was able to figure out that Camera Raw included in Element 8, Camera Raw 5.5, is not supporting the .orf raw from Olympus and if I didn’t want to upgrade my Element 8 to Element 9 or 10, a simple alternative was to download Adobe DNG converter to convert all my .orf files into dng files, which could then imported by Element 8 and opened in Camera raw 5.5.
    I downloaded DNG converter version 6.6 and installed it in on my computer running on Windows 7. The problem is that once inside DNG converter, when selecting the folder where all my .orf files are (Select folder), I can't see any raw files to convert there! I tried to select a folder with NEF files instead (raw files from Nikon) and it is the same problem! Why can’t I see those files of mine I want to convert when I select the folder in DNG converter?
    I'm dying for help!
    Thanks a lot!

    When you are selecting the folder in the DNG converter, you only click on the folder.  You DON'T double click on the folder.  After you have set your options, and chosen the folder, you click on the Convert button.  It is only after you have clicked on Convert that you will see the list of files that are being converted.  You will also be able to see an indicator of the progress of the conversion.  It really does work.  Just to verify, the procedure I outlined is one that I did just prior to trying to write the instructions.  It really isn't rocket science.  Just choose the folder, only the folder, and click on the Convert button.
    You'll notice that the button prompts you to select the folder, it doesn't say anything about selecting a file.  You only select the folder that contains the files.  You will never see a list of files using this method.  If you only want to convert one or two images you can use the other method.  Leave the DNG converter closed, open the folder containing the DNG files in your operating system folder browsing utility, choose the file you want to convert, and drag it onto the icon for the DNG converter.  That is how you choose individual images.

  • Spotlight Can't Find My Raw Files

    For months now, Spotlight has been unable to find my raw files. If I type .CR2, it finds them just fine, if I type any digit(s) at all before the .CR2, it can't find them. The same problems happen with my older camera that ends raw files .CRW
    I'm not concerned with the metadata, just the file by name.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    George

    Ah, the difference is between using the "quickie" Spotlight versus the full Command-F, which returns much better results.
    Reading what you are getting strikes me as showing that the metadata importer handling your new camera's files is not working quite right. Thus, I have one drive that is searchable with Spotlight, but not indexed (it is a bit tricky to set it up that way). If I do a quick Spotlight search on "4039" my camera raw files that are on the fully indexed drives all show up, but the copy on the non-indexed drive does not. If I do a full Command-F search, with the two criteria of Kind:Canon Camera and Name Contains 4039, then it does show up. So I would guess that your new files are behving as if they are not fully indexed, and that the camera raw support in the metadata importer is lacking for that camera's files. Perhaps your new camera's raw format is just not fully supported yet. Have you run the latest Camera Raw updater from Apple?
    Also you might try one of the search utilities that doesn't depend on indexing, EasyFind is free:
    http://www.devon-technologies.com/products/freeware/index.html
    You might find you like it better. Because it does a brute force search it can be rather slow. If you restrict it to just the folder that contains images, even if the folder is quite large with many sub-folders, rather than having it do a whole drive, its performance is actually quite fast.

  • How can I open a keynote file that was made in Keynote Beta and downloaded from the web?

    I have Keynote version 5.3
    I want to edit a Keynote presentation made originally in Keynote Beta on the web.
    When I download it in .key it wont let me edit the file because it says I need a newer version of Keynote.
    When I try to download Keynote 6.0.1 I'm told I can't because I need a newer operating system!! I currently have 10.7.5 and there are no new updates.
    Can I NOT open a keynote file that was made in Keynote Beta??!

  • Why does lightroom 5 do not read or can't find my raw files when I'm trying to import my images from my camera to light room

    It just started happening out of the ordinary. I had a photo shoot done today. I came home plugged my camera usb to my mac lap top and tried to import my raw files as i usually do into light room 5 to edit my images. This time the same error message popped up stating it couldn't read or my files weren't found over and over again. Neither the new ones nor the old pictures was able to import them. Please Help!

    I just bought Lightroom and have the same problem - MacBook Pro with OS X 10.10.1. LR actually displays the photos properly when previewing but fails when starting the import. Also, a couple of times it would start but would hang up. I think it may be a Yosemite problem. I was having trouble importing with Aperture too. The fail message from LR was:
    The following files were not imported because they could not be read. (6)

        IMGP7943.JPG
        IMGP7945.JPG

    I can copy the folder from the camera to my desktop and then import. That works but of course I shouldn't have to do that.

  • How can I edit a pdf file that was imported?

    I want to edit a pdf/jpeg file that I imported/placed in AI?  Can that be done?

    Steven,
    Illy just sees a bunch of pixels as do the rest of us.
    You may use Image/Live Trace with suitable settings, expand, and let her work with the resulting vector artwork.
    Or you may draw a (set of path(s) round the part(s) you want to keep (turning htem into a compound path in case of multiple paths, then select everything and Object>Clipping Mask>Make. That will only hide the outlying parts (unless you do the destructive deed), and you only have limited ways of (further) editing.
    Or you may work in Photoshop or similar.

  • Where can I find a MAC Laptop that was around between 2001 and 2003

    I'm trying to recreate some data files that were created on a MAC laptop or G4 between 2001 an 2003. In addition to the laptop, or G4 if necessary, I need the OS of that time, the other OS support software and a copy of AOL from that period.

    If the files are already on some kind of media, you should be careful to make a working copy of them so as to have a fall-back, just in case something goes wrong in the process of trying to access them.
    There is a possibility files from one era may be read by more recent software, and upgraded by that software; this may be OK. But do not let such as process convert the originals, just in case that does not work or damages them instead of converting them.
    To know more exactly what the software was, and the version, would be more helpful when looking for a vintage computer and software sets for this kind of project. If the originals were created in AppleWorks or some other, that may be easy to open; older versions of MS Office or Word may be obtainable. A local Apple User Group may be a source of some information or leads.
    Good luck with your project...!

  • How Can I View an AppleScript File that was Saved as "Run Only"?

    Hello. I would like to view the AppleScript of a file I downloaded. But when I show the package contents, find the script, and try to open it, I get a message saying that the file "main.scpt" could not be opened because it was saved as run-only. How can I view this file?

    Are you using the save version of Illustrator on both Mac and PC? If so, and you have the same fonts installed on both machines you should be able to open it without any problems. You may need to tell it which fonts to assign, they are not always named the same. If you don't need to edit the text, you could convert the text to outline and eliminate the need for fonts.

  • How can I find an ID file that contains a text...?

    I've been working with InDesign for a long time. So, I have a lot of .indd files, from version 1 up to CS3.
    I need to find a file(s) that contains a specific text. E.g. the name of a person, that I'm sure is somewhere in my thousands of ID files.
    It's impossible to open all the files until I locate that text.
    In Windows Explorer, there's a way to search a word or phrase in a file, but it only returns doc, txt, rft, and other text files, even pdf. But not indd.
    Can somebody help me, please?
    Thanks,
    Hirao

    Have you tried changing the extension on your .indd files to .txt? It's
    a binary format, but there's a lot of plain text in there. The name
    you're looking for, or part of it, is probably in there somewhere.
    Search for the shortest possible text string. Some words are not continuous.

  • How can i find the apple id that was used to purchase a computer?

    Someone else in our company purchased a MacBook Air online. He said that when he went through the purchasing process he selected 'Guest' and didn't create an Apple ID. He used a company credit card to pay, which *may* have had an Apple ID associated with it (but I don't think so since it's a fairly new card).
    The new computer is one day old.  I'm setting it up for the user; but when I go to the 'App Store >  Updates' I'm unable to update 'Pages.' It prompts me for an Apple ID.  I've typed in several that are in use here, but I get the error "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    Similarly, if I go to store.apple.com to look up the Order Number for this computer, I am prompted for an Apple ID (even though I have the order number).
    I realize this may not be the right place to post this, but I can't for the life of me find a generic 'Apple Store' (not for Apps) or 'Apple ID' community.  If someone can point me to a more appropriate community, I'll be happy to repost...

    I'm being prompted for both Apple ID and password, if that's what you're asking...
    I went to System Preferences > App Store and it shows "You are signed in as <myAppleID> in the App Store."  So I went back to the 'App Store > Updates' to update Pages using my Apple ID/passwd, I get the error message "this update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    This is a brand new computer, so whose Apple ID is associated with Pages? ...ab
