Corrupt game save file :(

Under documents and data there is a file for tomb raider app that contains game save information. The app icon in this section is white and the actual app doesnt have any previous game saves. Is there a way to fix this as i got really far and want to be able to load my previous game save!!!
Thanks

You'll probably do better by querying the manufacturer -- web site, support, forums, etc. Only someone here who uses that particular game would know.
If it's a normal, well-behaved app, it's files would be somewhere in <your home folder>/Library/Application Support, but there's no telling where else it might have put things.

    Hello:
    Will Migration Assistant application transfer my applications' settings and all my games' save file such as Spore and even ported games?
    I doubt if anyone can answer your question.  With a new Mac, setup assistant opens the first time the system is turned on.  One can also use migration assistant.
    I have used both for several years and have never "lost" any data.
    If you want to move, have a good backup and then do it.

  • Game Save Files

    I have a problem.  Whenever my Pre starts to get a bit sluggish, I either do a partial erase or a full erase depending on how much time I have on my hands.  My "erase" addiction is presenting a problem with some of the games I would like to play.  SIMS for instance sounds like a great time waster but I heard that once an erase is done I would then have to start from the beginning in the game.  Is there a save file somewhere that I could pull out of this phone?  If not maybe this should be something to look into in one of the future updates.
    Thanks for the help

    Wow, just wow.
    Let me get this correct, every so often you have to reset the device to factory to fix performance issues.  Does this not seem like a problem?  
    People please do yourself a favor, run from this phone.
    It is a problem but it's easy enough for me to fix.  This is my first smart phone so I guess I'm lucky enough to not know what to expect from one.  
    One thing I've noticed is after deleting a text message string, I can never get that contact to show up in the message card after.   To fix I have to always partial erase.
    Still, I do love this phone and it would be great to see a save file to backup soon.

  • Keep getting corrupted temp save file when I save and close.

    When I save and close a numbers spreadsheet, about 20% of the time I will be left with the normal file and a weird temporary file with a "~" on the end of the file name.  I can't delete the file or do anything with it.  It will let me open it, but even when I save it still says I cant delete because the file is in use.
    Example-
    Work on spreadsheet1.  Hit save and then close.
    In finder I am left with-
    spreadsheet1
    spreadsheet1~
    "spreadsheet1" is the correct file and it works and functions normally, but "spreadsheet1~" is corrupt and I cant seem to delete it.  I always get "The operation can’t be completed because the item “spreadsheet1~” is in use.
    What is causing this and how can I get rid of those files?

    I think I would ignore the files and not worry about them.  Are you experiencing any undesirable effects of these files-- aside from seeing them there?

  • Where are "Braid Game" save files stored?

    Hello!
    I had Braid installed in my os x snow. I then went to preferences and copy everything related to braid I found there.
    Now I've upgraded to Lion but have no idea where should I put those files in order for my new Braid.app recognize them as the previous files, and continue my game.
    Any help?
    Thanks!

    When you import the plug-in, its contents are taken and put in a repository table. So when you go to operate on the plug-in, you don't need access to the filesystem of a particular OMS (of which you could have multiple), you only need access to the repository.
    The easiest way to get at one of the report files is to export the plug-in and unjar the MPA it gets put in. The file naming will make it a little hard to figure out which is the file you want, but they'll all be there...

  • "Always ask me where to save files" does not work.

    Summary: The "Always ask me where to save files" feature does not work. No dialog box comes up, apparently because the browser is stuck on a bad old read-only lastDir location, in a prefs.js file that I can't edit.
    Details:
    I am using Firefox 30.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8. My Mac has a both a read/write Mac partition that I use most of the time, and a bootcamp Windows partition drive ("C"), which I can read but not write to.
    At some point I accidentally tried to download a file from a site, using Firefox, to the read-only Windows C drive. Ever since that time, I have not been able to download any files from Firefox, except to the firefox/downloads folder. This is inconvenient. If, in preferences, I try to set downloads to ""Always ask me where to save files", the dialog box does not come up when I actually try to save files. This problem does not apply to saving photos by right-clicking them.
    If I open, in text-edit, mozilla/firefox/profiles/t4vockvue.default/prefs.js, which was saved yesterday, I can see a problematic line. It reads:
    user_pref("browser.download.lastDir", "C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc]");
    C:\\Documents and Settings\\[etcetc] being the read-only windows directory.
    This prefs.js is apparently not an editable file.
    I tried to fix this by opening a browser tab in Firefox and opening about:config. The editable browser.download.lastDir does NOT show the same "lastDir"....it shows some directory that I successfully downloaded photos to, by right-clicking on a photo.
    How can I fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    To confirm which profile folder is active when you are running Firefox, it is easiest to open it from inside Firefox as follows:
    Sometimes the file that stores the customizations becomes corrupted and fails to update properly at the end of your session. You can rename the file and customize from scratch.
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show in Finder" button (Windows: "Show Folder" button).
    Hopefully you are using a separate profile folder on each OS.

  • Re Time Machine "You do not have appropriate access privileges to save file ".002332b7be8a" warning preventing backups--this may help temporarily

    My TM is often giving me the "You do not have appropriate access privileges to save file “.002332b7be8a” in folder “Time Machine Backups”" message when I go to select my backup drive. I've reviewed past archived discussions on this and, like many other people, gotten completely flummoxed trying to find a permanent solution.  Tried the suggested fixes via Terminal and it didn't help because I couldn't get through the entire process without Terminal telling me it couldn't find a file or drive.  When I can find the time, I'm going to try Tinker Tool to reveal where that numbered file actually is and give it another go.
    In the meantime, for those who are desperate to get their TM working again to get at least one backup done, I can offer people a temporary solution that's worked for me.
    I've found that restarting my iMac somehow resets TM and usually allows it to do at least one of its automatic backups, sometimes several, before it reverts back to failing and producing that same darn warning message.  I only want a backup done once a day, so it's not that inconvenient to go this route.
    There's another even quicker  method (perhaps a little more risky but hasn't been a problem for me yet) that I've been using more recently, and that is to simply unplug the external while the iMac is on (I close system preferences first though, and make sure TM isn't actually doing anything at the time) then plugging it back in and choosing the backup drive again in the TM system preferences window once that drive has shown up again in the Mac's list of devices.  I don't get that warning message when I do this.  It works every time for me and so far it hasn't lost or corrupted any data on the external, despite the warning message you get on Macs when you unplug a USB device without ejecting it first.  However, do this at your own risk--don't flame me if it backfires on you.  If you're of the opinion that it's not wise to unplug the device this way, then fine, go ahead and state such in this thread, but be polite about it.
    Hope this helps anyone who's frantic to make a backup without having to start from square one with a whole new complete initial backup (can take many hours to make one) on a fresh external drive.
    By the way, I've read somewhere that this problem was fixed with Snow Leopard.  Whether that's true is another matter.  I'm not quite ready to update to 10.6 for other reasons, even though I bought it, and I figure some other people are also still using 10.5.8 out of fear and loathing around the unknowns of installing a new OS too, so that's why I thought I'd post this message (couldn't find a discussion around this that was still active and not archived).

    Do you mean in #C5 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting?

    It should be at the top level of the drive.

    Yes.  I'm not sure if it was 10.6.0 or one of the early updates, but I haven't seen any reports of this in quite a while.

  • How do I save files to external hard drive in anticipation of a OS clean install?

    How do I save files to an external hard drive in anticipation of a OS clean install?  I'm worried that the new OS will not be able to find my photos.
    My data have not been backed up for 2 months, and the OS is corrupted.  Currently working with a senior Apple engineer on this.  It looks like a clean install will be necessary.

  • 'Unknown Error' when trying to save files from CS under Leopard

    We recently upgraded to Leopard, and reinstalled our CS apps. Photoshop and InDesign work fine. Illustrator, however gives us an 'An Unknown Error has Occurred' when trying to save any file. After dismissing the alert, a window pops up, informing us that, 'Can't save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file couldn't be found. ID=-43.' This happens when trying to save a new file, or an existing file, when saving with PDF preview is checked, or unchecked. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I deleted preferences on both machines. The Intel seems to be cured. All file formats save, printing, and importing are functioning normally.
    The G5 however is only modestly improved. I can now at least create and save files. Printing also functions. However if I attempt to use the template dialog box or to import (place) a file the dialogs crash the application.
    My suspect is a corrupt font, but until I have time to track down which one it is, I'll have to limp along as is...

  • Corrupted MS Word file on Windows 7 when Saving as PDF - ZWADOBEF

    I have a Word 2013 file on Windows 7.
    I started to "Save As PDF", but cancelled the process because it was taking so long. My Word doc is about 200 pages.
    When I went back to work on the document, the Navigation pane showed seemingly random numbers prepended to each heading, and in some cases to paragraphs themselves. The numbers didn't seem to appear in the document body but there was a tiny small blinking dot.
    Upon close inspection I found that the numbers were in 1 pt. font ZWadobeF.
    I need to get rid of all the numbers.
    It also appears that the file size was affected too. It is now a 200 page document that is 7.5MB.
    On a tight deadline (of course) and need to resolve this ASAP.
    Thanks

    I tried several things to resolve the issue and can now produce PDFs without corrupting the Word file.
    1. I turned off the PDF Maker add-in in the Options menu:
    2. As you suggested, I repaired Acrobat Pro.
    3. I used the EXPORT command rather than the SAVE AS command. However, I got the following errors:
    Despite the warnings I was able to produce the PDFs. However, when I double-click the file name in Windows Explorer, Distiller launches and displays the following error:
    The only way to open the file in Explorer is to right-click the file name and select EDIT IN ACROBAT.
    Also- and this may be a separate issue altogether, Word constantly hangs and displays the NOT RESPONDING message above the toolbar. This happens whether or not I am in the process of creating a PDF, and occurs in large and small size documents.
    Thanks for your response to my questions-

  • Cant download or save file sometimes

    When i try to download a file or save it, it starts to download normally till it finished and this pops up "www.xxxx.com could not be saved, because you cannot change the contents of that folder.
    Change the folder properties and try again, or try saving in a different location."
    It always happen. I tried saving it into different places like on my desktop and in other drives but the same thing pops up. I really have no idea and this is interfering with work so please please i really need help.
    Thankyou
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == It started 2 days ago

    This may be a problem with the %TEMP% folder.
    Firefox immediately starts downloading the file to the temp folder and move the file after you have supplied the name and location to that folder.
    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    Do not forget to re-enable the scanning in your anti-virus software after you are finished with downloading and installing.

  • "iPod Games Library" file in Finder - technical aspects?

    Hi all,
    After finally figuring out the workaround to purchasing games (Buy with 1-Click), I grabbed a couple tonight.
    While adding the actual *.ipg files to my backup drive, I noticed that there is now a "iPod Games Library" file resident in the iTunes folder.
    Does this file automatically get created upon adding a game to the Library?
    Furthermore, if both the individual game files (.ipg) and this file are deleted, will iTunes recreate this?
    No major trauma... just a thirst for knowledge.
    Thanks!
    Steve

    I have been experiencing exactly the same problem. I have an extensive library and its getting tremendously frustrating.
    I was wondering whether it was linked to the following:
    I purchased one of the games - Texas Holdem' when I still owned a PC. I later upgraded to an Intel iMac. I transfered everything to the iMac and everything worked blissfully! A few months later I purchased Sudoku from the itunes store using the imac.
    Everything worked just fine until recently when i now get the same message as Sue. Is it possible that the file purchased, downloaded and installed using a PC has somehow corrupted the files? Is there a fix?
    Sue - if you have any insight or a solution please do share.
    Thanks
