EXPORTPDF has corrupted all my Word files. Fix ?

I subscribed to EXPORTPDF today and converted a pdf document to a Word document. Now I notice that ALL of my Word documents are corrupted with strange text/widgets. How do I remove EXPORTPDF and return all my Word docs to their original state ? Help please !

It doesn't do that, so far as I know it isn't even possible. So, something else has happened. Perhaps you can post a screen shot of one of these bad Word documents and we can suggest what next.

I was using photoshop CC as normal, when suddenly it started going haywire. It has corrupted all the one PSD files by distorting the images and colour. Does anyone know how to recover the original images?

I was using photoshop CC as normal, when suddenly it started going haywire. It has corrupted all the open PSD files by distorting the images and colour. They are now completely unrecognisable and unusable. Does anyone know how to recover the original images as I was saving them as I went along but the files are now corrupt?

What version of Photoshop are you running?
I've seen a couple of instances over the last week or two where Photoshop has added masks, strange colours and also merged content from two separate PSD files that were open at the same time.
This has occurred on two different iMacs, (both 10.10.x) running Photoshop CC 2014.2.2 (20141204.r.310 x64).
see image below for example:

Even via time machine the new osx lion has deleted all my latest files in iPhoto and will only revert back to an old 2009 backup?

even via time machine the new osx lion has deleted all my latest files in iPhoto and will only revert back to an old 2009 backup?... Help?!

Have you verified that the original files are missing from the Originals/Masters folder? There are time when the library might appear empty due to a damaged database file but still has the files. If you can open the library package via the Finder to see if the files are really missing or just can't be seen by iPhoto there are fixes you can try.
If the files are there make a temporary, backup copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

IPhoto is corrupting all my image files

iPhoto is corrupting all my picture files. If I didn't have them stored on an external hardrive, I would have lost all of my picture files. Why is iPhoto corrupting all my picture files?

iphoto is unstable.

Lion converted all my word files to Movie Draft SE Files?

What can I do? I have Word for Mac '08. Thanks for your help.

Click on one of the word files (.doc). Then do a get info (command-i). Choose "Open this file with..." and pick Word in the drop-down. Also check the "Open ALL of these files with..." checkbox below it.

Fireworks has changed all my gif files into index can't edit in photoshop

Fireworks has taken over my gif files and now when I try to edit them in photoshop I can't. It says index on the end of file and the layer is locked. I need fireworks to stop this so no other files do it. I have been going into photoshop an saving them as a jpg. file but that can get old. Is there anyway to stop fireworks from doing this?

Glad this helped!
It's interesting: Fireworks makes it much easier to work with GIFs. You just open up the file and start working. Fireworks doesn't have color modes (Grayscale, Indexed Color, RGB, CMYK, Lab) like Photoshop, and is much more geared towards hex codes—which I'm guessing is what indexed color systems use. This makes sense, as it was built to be a web graphics editor.
Apparently, GIFs don't support layers. Fireworks will let you add layers to your GIF, but once it's time to save the file, it'll let you know that you must either save the file in a different format or else the result will be flattened:
Photoshop isn't nearly as friendly to GIFs. Depending on the action you choose, you might get a clue about the need to convert to another color mode, like this one that appears when attempting to use the Dodge Tool:
Just as often, though, you'll only get greyed-out options or an angry "boop" sound from your computer—like when you double click on the locked "Index" layer—with no information provided. I think the engineers could improve this by adding a similar alert message to the Dodge Tool, or even better, by offering a prompt with the option to convert the image to RGB directly (when a user double clicks on the locked layer).

How do I deal with a fire wire HD after iSight has corrupted all the files?

Hi
When I bought iSight I was unaware that it works with pityfully few firewire hubs such as Belkin powered FW hub. I corrupted two drives before asking the forum who were very helpful.
After the corruption the files could not be read from the HD nor could the HD be written to. I managed to get the data off the HDs by connecting to another computer. They work perfectly on the other rig. However when I try to use them on the computer that they were corrupted on it is the same no IO without an error message. I have tried all the usual privileges stuff, ignore ownership etc but no go. Any ideas as to how I can use them with the original computer?
Thanks all

Hello Again Gordon Bennet!,
The above was the easy fix for your problem which is an I/O issue.
If you want to live on the edge, AFTER making a backup, are you are familiar with with how to use 'Console'? It's in Applications-Utilties-Console.
If so, can you access the logs and see if the sort of read error that has been logged? It is also possible (although improbable) that the OS logged a detailed message elsewhere.
Good luck and even though not "solved" here in the iSight group, you might try your HD question in Computing Hardware and under your MacMini group to see if anyone has better answer/solution.
Respectfully,
Bill Gallagher

Time Capsule drive has corrupted banded Time Machine file(s)

So my internal HD died a few days ago. I get a new HD and I go to recover my files using Time Machine from my Time Capsule drive, and it hangs on every attempt. Something with the Time Capsule drive itself is busted.
The sparsebundle file is 220gb in size and contains 28,000 banded files. Trying to copy it off of the Time Capsule results in a consistent hang. I went into the sparsebundle and copied off every individual banded file except one, and any attempt to copy that file from the drive will hang the Capsule and force me to reboot it.
Apparently Time Machine will not work if just one of these banded files is broken or out of place. Despite the fact that I recovered nearly all the data, it is currently unusable. I need some serious help.
My hope is there is some workaround I can do to get at least most of my data back. It is unacceptable that Apple would sell Time Capsule and advertise it as being a way to safely back up data, then have it corrupt my data 4 months after I bought it. This data is of course priceless to me, and its worth far more than the drive, my macs, or pretty much all the Apple hardware I've bought in my lifetime. So I really need an experienced person from Apple to help me out and figure out how I can recover my data.
Thanks to anyone who can do this.
Richard

So after alot of time, disk utility reports that the corrupt sparsebundle has no errors via verify and repairing it does nothing. It still won't mount and the same problems that were happening before continue to happen.
I'm trying another way now. Since the internal drive was suffering from classic stiction (I think), I went and got an external case for it, put it in there, and started to whack on it. Not exactly elegant but its been known to work. After some beatings the drive did come back to life, and I'm right now attempting to copy my data from it. So far so good.
The Time Capsule, and Time Machine for that matter, have proven worthless when I needed them. If this copy is successful, the TC is going back and I doubt I'll get another. This situation has been entirely unacceptable. I bought it only 4 months ago, and already the TC hardware/software corrupted my data. This is no kind of backup system, its pretty awful, and Apple really should not be advertising this device as a safe way to back up your data.

Virus has changed all the office file format and cant open those file

Hello
Recently I attacked by some new virus which is changed my all the office document files and added a extra extension after the office file extension.If I manually change the infected file extension to orginal file format and try open it shows error message.
Although having System Center Endpoint Protection how could it would be the affected by the virus ?
Now please suggest me how to recover the those files to orginal file format or recover MS office file???
Thanks

Hi,
Anti-virus solutions are necessary to protect your system but it can never be a 100% secure.
Once Office files are damaged by the viruses, we can't guarantee the files can still be recovered.
Anyway, you can still try the "Open and Repair" feature in Word to repair the file.
Take Word 2013 for example, click FILE -> Open -> Browse to the file location -> Select the document -> Find the "Open" button, click the "Open and Repair" button from the drop list. Check if this can repair the document.

Please HELP! iTunes Appears to have corrupted all my music Files.?

My music plays like its badly corrupted, skips, jumps, sounds like a scratched CD... it's not a hardware problem because I can still play sounds in other programs... but not in iTunes where ALL my music is.
What should I do?
Thank you so much to anyone who is able to help

Actually I am running iTunes 6....
okay, we'd better check through the usual suspects. (with a 6.0.x, it's less likely to be a problem with an itunes plugin than with itunes 7.0.x)
iTunes and QuickTime for Windows: Songs and other audio don't play correctly

There is no such thing as a 3rd generation 8gig ipod touch. You have a second gen.
Identifying iPod models
Basics troubleshooting from the manual is restart, reset, restore.

Apple id is Corrupted. How do I get all my devices talking to each other again? Resetting the password has corrupted all device access to iCloud, mail,Ap Store and more.

I have to say that I have had problem after problem with my suite of Apple computers and mobile devices. When I search for solutions I find masses of users with the same problems. Not one of the obvious problems is answered with workable fixes.

Instead of bashing Apple, you could ask politely for help fixing it. Also, google is your friend as well as Apple Support Communities.

IPhoto has turned all my RAW files into JPG :(

When I had to restore my iPhoto library, everything but the last import is now a jpeg. There are a few pictures that are now giving me an "!" when I try to edit them. Does iPhoto effectively destroy your photos when you restore them from a backup, or even editing them?
I have changed Image Capture to put the files into a folder now, but what do I need to get to get iPhoto from messing up my files?

Without knowing what you did in either case we have no way of knowing where you messed up.
Using Time Machine through a wireless connection. Tell me where I went wrong in setting this up.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents. Again suggests that you either messed up the back up or the restore.
Again, using TimeMachine for backup and restore.
Does iPhoto effectively destroy your photos when you restore them from a backup, or even editing them?
iPhoto does not "effectively destroy your photos" in any circumstance.
When you import a photo to iPhoto that Original file is preserved exactly as it was when you imported it. It is not changed in any way. Edits are carried put on copies. So, as I say above, you need to clarify what you did to back up and restore to discover where you've gone wrong.
but what do I need to get to get iPhoto from messing up my files?
iPhoto doesn't. You need to learn how to use it?
Been using it for years, never had a problem with it until now. Do you have classes that you teach on the proper way to use iPhoto?

Virus corrupted all photoshop files

So I had a laptop that I did all my production work on. I use photoshop very often, since I do graphics, marketing, and web design. Apparently, some kind of virus or malware has corrupted all my photoshop files. When I went to go turn on the laptop, the .psd files wouldn't open because the file description was "Adobe Photoshop Image 13". So I read up on a few other people that have had the same issue. I re-installed photoshop and now even though the description says "PSD File" I get the error "Could not complete your request because not a valid photoshop document". I already went to restore default file settings but every photoshop file that was saved on my laptop in the last several months is now unusable. Please, someone tell me there is a way to recover. Otherwise I've just lost about half a years worth of work that I neglected to backup.

I have some patent artwork that I created with Photoshop and I'm worried that maybe someone from a cloud storage company may have accessed my work. The patents have been filed, but if they thieved my work, and beat me to the punch I'm wondering if I have any recourse. That's why I asked the "date created" question. The second question was just asking an opinion of what people feel more secure using. My guess is the digital Image is probably the best bet. I could try enclosing the password protected PDF inside a digital image, that would be really secure since they would need 2 passwords to access the material.

Lost all previous Word for Mac files

Does anyone have any contact info for microsoft word (2004) for imac?
Recently lost all old word files, however, it has remembered the last 2 docs. In addition, it stopped listing 'Documents' as a option in Applications -where it was previously along with 'Pictures' Movies' etc.
Apple support staff on phone said I should call Microsoft Word, yet they charge a lot from what I can see for a simple phone support.
