File got corrupt during Save crash

I was saving a file, and right then had a power outage. I went to sleep, woke up next day, opened the file in DW and it's all blank. Says 19kb but is blank. How do I recover the data? It's really important stuff that I coded and I have to meet a deadline so help would be much appreciated. Anyone has this happened to them?
Also, what precautions can I take to prevent this in the future?

Unless you have the file saved as a backup, or uploaded it to the server, then I'm afraid you are out of luck. As far as I am aware there is no way to recover a lost file.
There could be a tmp file somewhere if you previewed the file in the browser, but I'm not even sure where it may be located - and DW is supposed to remove the tmp files on close anyway.

What should i do when my file got corrupted please help.

i was on microsoft word and it says my files got corrupted.

where is your necessary backup for that important file at?
Do you have a time machine backup, or where is your copy of that file on your external HD?

Data file got corrupted

<b>If the datafile get corrupted while creating, what should I do?</b>

Hi
During creation of datafile, if the datafile got corrupted then you can delete the data file and recreate it again. The condition is that the particular data file has not been used after creation.
But if the datafile is created snd used, then you have to restore the datafile from the backup (use the Brtools to restore the datafile)
Please use Brtools utliity for the same.
Thanks

M4a file got corrupted

I did a voice recording and downloaded it on my laptop. Naively, I deleted the audio files from my Phone (Galaxy S4). 3 out of 4 audios were working fine but one of them got corrupted/broken. I can't play it with anything.
I started looking around online and found http://mp4repair.org/ which showed that the file can be repaired. I uploaded and heard it for sometime and things looked fine. The problem is that it is asking for 90$
I then looked at some discussion at appleinsider http://forums.appleinsider.com/t/81014/need-help-fixing-an-audio-file
The guy suggested to work with the Hexfiend. Though I can see the data is intact on the audio file, I can't get it back after numerous tries.
Any kind of help is welcome.
Thanks in Advance

A previous post from someone with the same problem didn't produce an answer and I'm afraid it's not something in my experience, so I can't suggest any other methods to you.

Psd file got corrupted in redraw and is still corrupted, even though i didn't save the file.

sorry for the long headline, but can't figure out how to shorten...
i'm using photoshop CS 5.5. the image below is the result of making a change, zooming in and the redraw created this:
as i zoomed out, the image progressively filled into normal by the time it was at 6% actual size, but when i zoomed in, the image broke apart once more. i closed this image without saving. i reopened the image, and the corruption remained. i tried to open in CS 6 and 4 but it was still corrupted. the layers are mostly smart objects which opened uncorrupted. i resaved them and when it went back to the main document, that particular smart object was restored. so i thought it had to do with a smart object glitch, but then i realized that the pixel masks non-smartobject layers had giant square blocks. this file is gone.
can anyone provide insight?
this is how the file looked originally:

This is the main reason I pay as many bills as I can by credit card. If I have a dispute with a charge to my credit card, I call the CC company and post the dispute. This way, the charge is deducted from my bill UNTIL the CC company, the billing company and I come to an agreement on whether or not the charge is valid. Verizon is more likely to react more quickly when the CC company is one of the parties involved in the dispute. This has never failed me in the past.

I downloded iphoto 11 9.2 and when opened it for the first time and the program started to update my iPhoto library the file got corrupted. That has happened in the two macs I have (both of them rather new and updated to last Lion version 10.7.2).

I downloaded Iphoto 11 9.2 from the apps store (was on iphoto '09 before version 8.x) and when opened it for the first time it tried to update my photo librery and ended up corupting it to the extreme that I had to get a backup from time capsule and downgrade my iphoto version. I spent yesterday 6 hours at the genius bar in an apple store and they were not able to provide me with any other solution. In the emantime, I have to forget about about photo streaming... Any idea, is this a bug that somebody knows how tp fix?

In fairness, this isn't an issue in iPhoto 11 but one in your Library. Some file or other in there is damaged and that's what causes the crash during the upgrade.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Avi files got corrupted

I recorded a series of avi files with two different Canon cameras while in South Africa in January. When I downloaded them, they played fine, and were really quite terrific.
Somehow, several months ago, possibly in doing software updates, the file sizes got reduced to somewhere between 7KB and 140KB. Now, when I try to play them, QT launches, and all i get is the opening frame, and the duration shows as zero.
What could have happened to them? Are there invisible files floating around on my hard drive?

Glen:
What you're trying to play is the jpg of the first frame that iPhoto creates upon import. Are you must double clicking on the thumbnail in iPhoto when trying to play?
Control-click on the thumbnail and select Show File. When you get to the file via the Finder check its size to see if it's the full sized file instead of the thumbnail.
If you exported the movie file out of iPhoto and didn't use the Format = Original option the exported file will be a jpg or whatever format is selected instead as a movie file.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Transferring docs from DELL to Macbook pro, some files got corrupted or won't open.

I got my mcbpro with os lion and i transferred all of my documents from my DELL laptop on an external harddrive, however i can open some jpgs and word docs and others won't open giving: Item “NAME.JPG” is used by Mac OS X and can’t be opened.
Also, one folder that had all of my school docs is completely blank, and I have it backedup.
I do have the necessary apps to open these docs (for example office for mac, and preview for jpgs) and I can also open some word docs and jpg images I have so I dont really understand why those ones won't be opened.

File type changing during "Save As" - Help!

Good Morning! I have a set of tif files converted from RAW that I'm resizing for an order for a client and every time I do a "Save As", the file gets changes to an extension of $CB, then Adobe and nothing else will recognize it.
The history;
Converted RAW to Tif in Bridge CS3
Opened in PSCS3 extended - cropped to size - do the Save As, still shows the file as a Tif in file type - reopened the original to make another size and noticed that file I just created is not there. No, I didn't save the file with the same name, thus Save As.
My normal file naming, I just add a designated letter at the end of my file name to indicate the finished size ie.. legion post 576_001D.tif (D = 8 x 10) The original file would be legion post 576_013.tif. I did this on 3 different computers, using PS 7.01, CS2, CS3 and CS4, all the same results.
Also, I can view the original tif in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer - as I normally am able to, however, this new one comes up with the error and unrecognizable file.
Now I'm wondering did the RAW conversion did something.
Help, I need to get these off to my printing service!
thanks,
Jan

Never mind! Found the problem!
For some reason, there was a check on the “Hide Extensions for Known file Types”.
I had to Go to Tools – Folder Options – View and uncheck “Hide Extensions for Known file Types”. Would have never guessed that one!
You know one of those places your always changing things in!!!!! NOT!
Anyway, it works!

Opied files got corrupted in USB3 external drives connected to Macbook Pro, how to fix it?

I use USB3 connected external hard drives in my Macbook Pro mid 2012 (Yosemite 10.10.1) frequently. I had no problem until two months ago. This week I noticed a lot of corrupted files in one ext drive connected to USB3 port. Luckily I have a backup, and I copied back the files. But the files copied recently were also corrupted even though source files are fine. I spent a whole day trying to fix it using different methods of copy and options, e.g. erasing the drive, using cp, rsync, ditto and a combination of their options. I figured out that if I use cp or cp - R for copying single file or folder, it works fine, but using of rsync, ditto or recursive cp or finder's drag and drop result into a lot of corrupted files in the target drive. This is not the problem of external drive. I was surprised to notice that all files are copied perfectly when I used a old macbook (2008 model, it only has USB2 port, and OSX Mavericks). Since I have almost 2TB data to write, USB2 is very slow. I want to use USB3 of Macbook Pro 2012, but I am very disappointed to find out that USB3 in Yosemite is causing the trouble, writing out corrupted files. If anyone has a solution to this problem, or a second thought, Please suggest.

Disk is formatted to Paragon NTFS

My guess here is there is some issue with the use of Paragon NTFS. Perhaps updating it or using another NTFS driver (like Tuxera, or its free alternative NTFS-3G) will work. All in all, using NTFS in write mode with these options will be using a non-supported approach for accessing your drive, which could lead to odd problems if Apple makes a change that interferes with the functions of these drivers. At other times, such drivers use inherently less stable approaches (such as the FUSE environment) that could lead to problems if not formatted correctly.
If your drive is working, and the formatting is checked out properly in Windows and other systems, then I'd suggest you check on your NTFS driver and update or replace it. Alternatively, if you only use the drive with your Mac, then consider formatting it to Apple's native Mac OS Extended. Lastly, if you use the drive with multiple operating systems, then consider using FAT32 or ExFAT as the format, as these are fully supported in OS X (unlike NTFS, which is only supported for reading).

It's good to hear the Macbook Pro & the disk is capable of working correctly. The next test would be to try a clean install of OS X & repeat the copy guess. Adding third party drivers for write support makes the picture a little cloudy IMO.
I'm not really sure what else to suggest other than doing some tests & then taking that data to an Apple store. If you are lucky the genius may follow up on it, or if you submit it as bug reports Apple may follow up on it.

EMF files are corrupted during PDF creation

Can anyone help with the following problem? I have a FrameMaker book in which EMF image files are imported by reference. These images show up fine within each individual FrameMaker document. The book and document files were created with FrameMaker 8 and, for many years, I was able to save as a PDF (using Acrobat 3D 8) without having any problems in the resulting PDF document.
However, after an upgrade to FrameMaker 10 and Acrobat X, I find that saving as a PDF results in mangled images, like the following:
My OS is Windows XP Pro, and I have installed all available updates for both Windows and the Adobe suite. Any ideas?
thanks

OK, apparently I just had to check the box that asks if I want to convert CMYK images to RGB. That checkbox never used to be there, so I hadn't even noticed it.
