File lost after a numbers crash

Hi All,
i was working on the plane on a document. I briefly saw a flag saying numbers cannot save to the cloud or such and then numbers did crash. The file seems to have been totally erased. It is not in the recent document, nor is it on the icloud space or on a hard drive.
As i had been storing datas for 6 months, it is a significant loss. Can i do something to retrieve that file ?
thanks for your help

In Finder hold down the option key and in the menu Go > Library > Mobile Documents > com~apple~Numbers.
With luck your document will be in that folder (where Numbers stores local copies of documents synced with iCloud).
If you use Time Machine you might also try going back in time in that folder to 'Restore' your document.

  • All iTunes music lost after hard drive crashed

    After upgrading to Snowleopard, I noticed my computer acting odd and constantly freezing. I took it to get checked and to back up all my data. I was told they could back up my data, wipe the hard drive and upload my data again...but then I was told that my data was encrypted, therefore it could not be restored. As a result, I lost ALL my files including all of my iTunes music. Is there a way to request a redownload from iTunes? I've been told by friends that only one request will ever be granted per customer. I really hope there's a way to restore my music. It's not like I chose to download my music illegaly. I chose to do it legally throuh iTunes and pay for my music. Please help me, my iTunes library was fairly large and I can't bare the thought of all of it being lost.
    Any help and guidance would be extremely helpful. Thank you!

    just a remark : of course each & every one should be responsible for one's music & as you say, if one looses all our cd's, the record store doesn't have to replace them - granted !
    having said that & considering how much it costs Apple a download replacement service for such instances & how few people would actually use it , it seems to me it's a brilliant
    ''extra'' to add to the iTunes Store roster of features - one that makes it even more appealing ? : ''..don't worry , if anything goes wrong you can always get it back..''
    i'd call this offering peace of mind ( VERY attractive.. ) others would call it good marketing policy - you pick !

  • IWeb files lost after HD replacement?

    First off, I'm $tuck with very old HW/SW, per the equipment profile below. Cannot advance beyond my current iLife 08.
    Recently replaced a failing internal hard drive (6 yrs old), and did a clean install of software, except for iWeb which I backed up multiple times. I thought I had adequately archived the iWeb folder on externals. Afterwards I launched iWeb, and got a prompt to re-install iLife 08. After I did that, it wasn't a surprise to me to see that the website I'd created years ago was no longer accessible on my Mac (unless it's hidden somewhere; I am NOT iWeb-savvy).
    The good news is that the webhost that I'm using after the closure of MobileMe has the current file captured, and is showing properly online.
    But it appears that if it ever needs editing, I'll have to build it all over again from scratch.
    Am I assessing this correctly?
    I'm willing to accept that I've botched the capture of my website, but I wonder if this was even doable at all? If only for information, what could I have done differently to retain the website for editing, in the midst of a hard drive replacement?
    Or is it actually still possible to retrieve it as it stands?
    Thanks in advance.

    To find an iWeb domain file:
    First you need to find the file where iWeb stores its information. iWeb stores its information in a file (or package) called Domain.sites2 (by default but can be changed). Note that the extension .sites (iWeb 1.0) or .sites2 (iWeb  2.0 and 3.0) may be hidden, hence it could also be called Domain only.
    To find a Domain file it's best to use a freeware application called Find any File since Spotlight doesn't search everywhere. Once you downloaded and installed the application type ".sites" (without quotes) into the search field of Find File and it will list all the Domain files of all iWeb versions on your computer.

  • Powerpoint.exe 2003 file lost after Office 365 installed

    I have an X235 running W7 and have a problem with my Office 2003 applications after installing 365. The 365 process is currently hung at about 85% complete but the 365 Office suite is actually usable. The problem is that the old Office 2003 applications, the .exe files, seem to be gone. Interestingly, I installed 365 while Powerpoint 2003 was open and it is still functional. I am afraid though that once I close Powerpoint 2003, I will not be able to find it and open it up again. The shortcuts for example in C:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar still open Powerpoint 2003 and Word 2003 but the properties of these shortcuts do not list the target of the shortcut; "Target location:" is BLANK! Help!

    I would cancel the Office 365 install and reinstall Office 2003. Then uninstall the 2003 version and reinstall 365.

  • Time Capsule: Files lost after Secure Shared Disk: with accounts

    I Changed the Disks: Secure Shared Disk option to 'with accounts' on my Time Capsule and now all files are invisible. It looks the files must be still on the disks because of the amount of free/used bytes used that is displayed.
    How can I restore the 'old' files?

    Restore the old files by removing the accounts.. ie press and hold reset.. once you go back to a reset all files are available again anyway so the security is illusionary.
    If you want to secure files encrypt them.
    BTW the old airport utility would have warned you that what you were doing will stop access to your files.
    Of course the latest toyland utility probably showed you nothing.
    Never start accounts with files on the TC.. you should offload them.. create accounts then load them back.. to the illusion of security at least.

  • Photoshop Elements lost after a system crash

    I purchased Elements in late 2011 and was using it until recently when my system crashed and I had to reinstall Windows.   Do I need to purchase Elements again or is my serial number from the original purchase still valid if I want to download Elements again and re-install it?
    thanks!
    Simon

    Hi SimonBooth,
    Your serial number from the original purchase is still valid and you can redownload Elements again and use it.

  • Previous System Files Lost After Re Install?

    I recently had to blow out my system and re install my OS. I am pretty sure I checked the box to save the old system files in a directory and install the new one.
    My question is, I did not have a most recent Time Machine backup of files from my desktop and had a new directory of pics there. Did I lose anything residing on the desktop directory when I re installed, or did it save in that "Previous System" directory, which as another question, I have no idea where to find that old system directory.
    Thank you for your assistance!

    Thanks, Kappy. Didn't understand you were pointing me to the PSF folder in your previous message.
    Apparently, I must not have re installed the way I thought and the Mac HD OS Drive is clean with only the new OS, Applications files, etc. So, no PSF folder.
    But, at least I know now!
    Thank you for your help and good luck!

  • Numbers crashes when importing .xls from Mail app

    iPad w/iOS 4.2
    Installed Numbers to view .xls files emailed to me
    Numbers crashes while trying to import .xls from Mail attachment and Mail freezes when trying to view same .xls natively.
    Here are the two processes I've tried:
    Process 1:
    1. Open Mail
    2. Press attachment icon until 'Quick Look' and 'Open in Numbers' appears
    3. Select 'Open in Numbers'
    4. Numbers opens and the large .XLS icon displays while 'importing spreadsheet' process bar moves to about 50%
    5. App crashes and returns to springboard
    Process 2:
    1. Open Mail
    2. Press attachment icon until 'Quick Look' and 'Open in Numbers' appears
    3. Select 'Quick Look'
    4. Native view app tries to open and quickly changes to large attachment icon with no 'Back' button or any way to return to Mail
    5. Push Home - returns to springboard
    6. Select Mail - still shows large attachment icon with no 'Back' button
    7. Reboot iPad to clear Mail freeze in order to view Mail again
    Anyone have any idea what is wrong with Numbers or the native .xls viewer?
    Note, the .xls is version Excel 97-2003.
    thx

    No pics in this .xls - just tabs with data. I bought Numbers specifically to view only and it crashes after soft reboot, hard reboot, delete/re-install of app, etc.
    I'm also seeing several of these same issues on this topic w/o answers. Has anyone called or seen Apple in person to help? One 'solution' was to delete app from iPad/iTunes and reinstall with older backup version. In my case I don't have a backup as it's a new iPad...
    Extremely frustrating.

  • How do I recover a Muse site back to my computer after it has crashed and I've lost the files?

    How do I recover a Muse site that was uploaded to Business Catalyst back to my computer after my system crashed and I've lost the files?

    Regardless of being in development or not, "Captain Obvious" is is correct and the working .muse file is lost, meaning that you will have to start again from scratch.
    All the BC will contain is the published HTML and support files, not the .muse file which you would require to recover the site design.
    Might want to look into Time Machine or another automatic, timed backup source while you work.

  • What did I do wrong? I used to have iTunes installed on this computer and lost it when it crashed. No I can't get past a certain point in the installation point. I keep getting an error message stating that I need to verify that I have access to this file

    Help!! What's going wrong here. I used to have iTunes installed on this computer but lost it when it crashed. I've tried re-installing it numerous times but I keep getting the same error message. "Error writing to file: C:\ProgramFiles\iTunes.Resources\es.lproj\iPadLicense.rtf. Verify that you have access to that directory." I know I have access to that directory because on a different computer I can sync my iPad and iPhone. What am I doing wrong? What do I need to go in and authorize or turn on? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • My Garageband project crashed, the file lost/damaged! How to recover it?

    Guys,
    I've been working my garageband project when suddenly the window was closed and the notification asked me to reopen, report or ignore it.
    This is my second time my project crashed. The first time, I chose 'reopen', and my file reopen. All the midi datas still there, but the sample sounds were empty. So I had to put it one by one. What a job because I had more than 15 instruments there.
    But those jobs was better then what I experienced today. After my project crashed, I chose 'ignore' with assumption I would open the last saved file. But it didn't. I really lost my file. The size for one GarageBand projects is about more than 1 MB. But my file after crashed is about 56 KB! So some solutions like 'right click' and 'show package content' didn't work at all because I worked with midi data, not live recording. I tried to find the script file at projectdata and compared it with my other projects, they have more bytes than my lost project file.
    So, if you have a same problem like me, just choose 'reopen'. I hope it will save your midi data so you don't have to work it out from beginning (just like I have to do after write this post ... x) )
    So guys, is there any idea how to recover my crashed file? I've sent a report to Apple and still waiting their answer.
    Thanks a lot

    Reinstalling iTunes won't ever repair damaged libraries or find lost files.
    Unlike nearly all Windows software double-clicking an iTunes Library file does not necessarily open the selected database. Rather, iTunes opens the last database it successfully opened, or if that was in the "normal" <User's Music>\iTunes location, but is missing, it will create a new empty library.
    You can open an alternate library file, or create a new one, by holding down shift as you start iTunes. Although you can open the library files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder this way, your library will perform better if you restore the archived library database to the main iTunes folder in the way that I have described.
    Your most recent library may be present in the main iTunes folder as a .tmp file, or recoverable via a file undelete tool, however either of these files, if found, may be partially corrupt getting you no further forward.
    The two most recent releases of iTunes were June 11th and March 28th 2012..
    Yes I read your post, but I don't know if you know all of the above. If you had a full backup of your library you could just restore that. It is possible that what you've tried so far hasn't yet brought back the most complete version of your library that is available to you. As a last resort you will have to work with what you have and add in whatever media is not in that version of your library, accepting the loss of recently added ratings, playlists & play counts.
    You can simply add the entire iTunes Media folder using File > Add Folder to Library folder which should ignore everything already in the library and only add new (to that database) stuff. If there is any chance that your iTunes media folder contains .m3u playlist files the import process will also import all of those, which may not be what you want. iTunes Folder Watch would then present a better approach.

  • Work is lost after illustrator freezes and then crashes when copying over to photoshop

    work is lost after illustrator freezes and then crashes when copying items over to photoshop, then when re-opening the illustrator file it gets to the end of reading the file to open then quits again? this keeps happening!

    afrill,
    It seems that you file has become corrupted.
    One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way.
    Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
    http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
    and another similar website,
    http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error -occurred-pdf2dtp-file-recovery/
    As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.

  • Numbers crash on mac, cannot open file

    After updated the new version of Numbers (3.5.2) today, the file I was editing on got crashed.
    Then when I tried to reopen it, it would not open it.
    I tried to create a new file. After several minutes of editing, Numbers crashed again, and it also popped out 'filename.numbers cannot be opened.' The file is stored on hard disk, not in iCloud. The file contains important information and data that has not been backed up. It is such a big bummer that I cannot access it. I tried to restart the system, tried to quit program and enter in again, nothing worked.
    Hope someone can help me. Really don't know what to do now!
