Gerber Files are incomplete!

Hi there,
I have been using Ulticap & Ultiboard 2001 for a number of years now, and after recently having a number of issues with the software I thought it was time I upgraded to Multisim and Ultiboard V10.
But when it came to producing some Gerber Files in the RS 274x it appeared to produce the gerber files for me, and I noticed that there did appear to be the Drill Files so I sent them off to manufacture.
But the board manufacturer has no Drill File information at all.
When I checked back to previous Gerber Files Produced with Ultiboard 2001 and Ultiboard 7 I noticed two additional files that had the following File Extension ***.REP & ***.DRL all of the files I have produced have the same extension of ***.GBR
Have I not generated the Files correctly or is there a setting I have to check before producing the Gerber Files.
Any assistance on this matter would be much appreciated.

Let me see if I have this correct
First I need to Export the Gerber Files in the RS 274x Format
Then I need to Export the "NC Drill" Files
Is this correct?
Sorry if I am sounding "Thick" but I am currently working at the customers premises trying to find an answer for when I get back to the office, so I don't actually have the software open in front of me.
But from past experiance of using Forums, an answer can take hours to come in, where as this one is minutes.
Is there any other files I am going to need to Export or should that be it for the time being?
Thanks for all of your assistance it has been greatly appreciated.

*.xmp files are incomplete.

I am running Bridge CS5.1 on OSX Lion.
I am shooing RAW (*.CR2) on a 600D with FW 1.0.2
My workflow is to copy the files from the card to the internal HDD with finder. Then browse the files in Bridge, opening them in Camera RAW when edits need to be made.
This was working until I reset bridge recently due to some cache corruption (which was resolved by the reset). Now, on my latest import when I open the files in Camera RAW, make changes and press done an *.xmp is created, however this file does not contain the changes I made (to white balance, exposure, sharpness, cropping etc). As a result of this, the icon which indicates changes does not show in bridge and when I open the file in Camera RAW again the changes are missing.
Oddly, this problem is only applicable to my latest import - the files which I had imported previously still work within the same workflow. So it appreas there's possibly something wrong with the permissions on the newly created files.
I understand this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4102902#4102902) is addressing a similar problem, and it remains unresolved.
This is a link to an *.xmp file which is holding the changes - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14483853/IMG_3825.xmp
And this is a link to one which is not - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14483853/IMG_3832.xmp
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The XMP files contain information about the last conversion you did on a particular raw file. If you delete it your conversion parameters will revert to defaults next time you open the raw file, instead of Camera Raw using the last conversion parameters.
Go into Edit - Preferences - Camera Raw... and you'll see that you could choose to save the conversion parameters in a central database if you don't like the sidecar XMP files showing up. If you DO choose the central database, consider upping the max size from the default of 1 GB.

TS1424 Some of my files are incomplete.

Some of my music files will only play until a certain time on the track 41 seconds for example and then will skip onto the next song. How can i correct this?

Maxine,
With the recent update of the Creative Cloud Desktop app (1.9.1.474) we unfortunately introduced a bug which causes the creation of a new Creative Cloud Files folder, and re-sync of all content. This will only occur the first time the sync application runs after the update. This has caused understandable pain and confusion, for which we truly apologise.
The Creative Cloud Files app contains logic that supports the use of multiple Adobe IDs. This allows you to sign out of one ID and in to another, but keeps your Creative Cloud content separate. When you sign out and change IDs, the app moves the previous Creative Cloud Files folder and it's contents and appends it with the previously signed in ID (User@AdobeID). It then creates a new main folder and starts to sync content of the new ID.
The bug which I mentioned previously occurs, as the app believes an ID switch has taken place and as such, moves the current Creative Cloud Files folder and tries to append the previously signed in ID. As no switch has actually taken place it manifests as (Unknown). The app then creates a new main folder at syncs down the data.
Essentially what you end up with is a Creative Cloud Files folder with your newly sync'd data and a Creative Cloud Files (Unknown) folder that contains duplicate data.
This occurs once, after the last update completes.
The fix is to simply delete the Creative Cloud Files (Unknown) folder.
I would advise that you ensure you have no pending edits that you may have made offline and that you check the contents of the new, main Creative Cloud Files folder contains everything you expect it to. If not, check the contents of the Creative Cloud Files (Unknown) folder.
If there is still a discrepancy with your data, you can check on creative.adobe.com to confirm your data is there.
If you have any further problems or questions about this particular issue please email [email protected]

Any way to save gerber files as a functional file?

My computer crashed the other day and I lost a project that I had been working on for 3 weeks. I was wondering if there was any way that I could convert the gerber files that I do have into something functional within Utliboard?

Hi,
Ultiboard should be able to open your Gerber files, this is done by select FileàOpen and in the “files of type” field there should be a Gerber option. However, this is a viewer only and you will not be able to edit anything in here, you can use it as a template to redesign your board. The information contain in a Gerber file are machine commands, it tells the plotter where you go, when to turn on the light and what aperture to use etc… The design file has pads information, netlist, design rules etc… Since the information in the two types of files is totally different, you will not be able to convert the Gerber file back to a design file.

FCP files are damaged or incomplete

When i went to open FCP today it came up with a box saying, "You can't open the application Final Cut Pro because it may be damaged or incomplete."
It is still in my applications folder. But wont open. I tried going into time machine and restoring what files i could find and recopying them onto my HD just in case something was missing. Same thing.
Strangely Compressor doesn't work either. it has a question mark on the link for the dock. spotlight cant find it either.
Motion 3, and DVD Studio both work fine.
Sadly the disks are not with me right now. So an easy fix is not to reinstall right now.

I have FCP 6 and a few other pro apps installed on my MacBook Pro 15" everything was fine. Today I went to install the rest of the Pro apps Motion 3, Soundtrack Pro and after the installation FCP could not be launched and the dock icon was grayed out with a circle and slash thru it and the error message was FCP files are damaged or incomplete. I'm installing again but the installer won't let me just install FCP 6. All the other apps are fine, including the ones installed today. Help please.

HT1725 after having to remove OS files,i got my music to reload but alot of them are incomplete.

After having to my remove my OS files due to a corrupted file,when everything was reinstalled and i went to get my music reloaded to my computer,all the music was reloaded,but alot of them are incomplete.

iTunes doesn't pay attention to the file and folder names, only to the tags. If the files are untagged you can use a third party program like MediaMonkey (Google it, the forum software won't let me post a link today) before you add the tracks to iTunes, or if you can make sure that you add them in such a way that iTunes doesn't rename and move them (turn off the Keep... & Copy... and copy preferences and don't use the Automatically Add to iTunes folder) then I have a script called TagFromFilename at
samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp#TagFromFilename
that may be able to apply the information provided the tracks are in Artist and then Album folders.

NEVER MIND! I was over the allotted mb limit hence the page

I have just downloaded itunes 10.6 and in the process my "podcast" option under library has disappeared! The files are still on my laptop. I can also see some of my recorded music in my itunes library but can play them - there is an exclamation mark next

I have just downloaded itunes 10.6 and in the process my "podcast" option under library has disappeared! THe files are still on my laptop. I can also see some of my recorded music in the itunes library but can't play them - there is an exclamation mark next to each track. Basically I can't use itunes - is the only option remove and replace? Thanks in advance

Visibility of the Podcasts section is controlled from within the Edit > Preferences dialog.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
Missing tracks
Typically this can happen because a file or folder is accidentally shunted to the wrong location. iTunes can also get confused if it expects to be talking to an external drive which isn't there. If will often reset the default media folder location and may have trouble finding files in the old folders.
Select one of your tracks that is missing in action. Press CTRL-I to Get Info. Cancel when asked to try to locate the file, then look at the location given on the summary tab. This where iTunes thinks the file ought to be? Now find out where it actually is. Post back the two locations for comparison. I should be able to give you some steps to reconnect everything once I can determine which of the things that might have gone wrong is most likely in your case.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Gerber file has drill holes

In Ultiboard 8.3.19, I created a small file consisting of a rectangle board outline and one part from the database that has two pads and the associated holes. When I export the gerber file for the board outline, I get not just the board outline, but the drill or pads for the part included in the board outline. I looked in the Ultiboard options and properties and cannot find any choices that would cause this.
I created the above example since I had modified an existing board layout of an actual product of ours and had the same result - extra stuff included in the board outline gerber. If I open the gerber outline file of the board before modification, it shows just the outline. I think I see some additional stuff included in the solder mask bottom layer as well.
I need to know what causes this to occur and what the workaround is. Example files attached.

Tien,
I had posted the files with my original post yesterday on this forum. If you open the project file (.ewprj) and check only the board outline layer in the Design Toolbox, you see just the board outline. If you open the gerber file, you will see that in addition to the board outline, the two holes for the single placed component are also there. So, something is not working properly when the file is converted to Gerber format.
In this forum the same topic came up in a 2007 post, but was never answered:
I am having a problem with Ulitiboard 8. After exporting gerbers, the board outline gerber shows all drilled holes (except for the vias) as well as the usual outline. Previous versions only exported the board outline as expected. Is this a bug, or have I missed a control option somewhere? Thanks

HT1399 my most recent downloads are incomplete on my ipod. what did i do?

My most recent downloads are incomplete on my ipod. They are in my music library but are not the full song. They are listed under purchased but will not play completely, some not at all. What have i done????

The D610 needs ACR 8.3 so you are easily covered there. I am not entirely clear on the process you are using the bring the files onto your hard drive. The safest way is to simply bring all the NEF files into a folder on your hard drive, then find them with bridge and open from there.
If still stuck, open Photoshop, and go Help > About plugins > Camera RAW and check that 8.7 installed OK.

Bringing in a Gerber file to LabView

I am writing an Emissons scanning program and would like to bring in a Gerber file (printed circuit board file) into LabView to overlay on the emissions data. What I am thinking is selecting this file and having the layout appear within LabView. I would then like to be able to move the picture around and overlay it with the scanned data. This would enable me to look at areas, componets, and traces of the board that are radiating energy for debugging purposes. Is this going to be much more complicated than it sounds? Right now I take the scanned data and import it into a program like Paint Shop Pro, and do the overlay there. This gets difficult because of all the scaling problems that arise trying to line everything up. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks

Ok, you where talking about the XY Chart earier on...
You can make the intensity graph transparent, but it's pointless. To make it transparent, you press Shift Right mouse, and select the paint tool, and select transparent. Do the same for the frame of the intensity graph, and you can look right through it. However, when you put data in it, all data will be represented oblique. So you still won't be able to look through.
The data you want on top of your picture has to be blend with the background. So, load the picture, and convert it to a 2D array (unflatten). Then, you need a mask color in your 2D intensity graph data that is transparent. Then, for each element in your data, check if it's the mask color, and if it is, display the background picture.
You also can do this with the picture control (if you have LV pro or full). Simply load the picture, and draw it in a picture control. Then, flatten the data so LabVIEW will see it as a picture. Add a mask to it with the mask VI, and draw it in the same picture control.
Then you'll have a intensity picture with a background picture.
Regards,
Wiebe.

This occurs with every file within the TestCode project, but
I have many other projects defined and running
and I don't get this error message.
Can someone please point me in the right direction ???
Driving me nuts with the number of times this popup comes up...

In order to create space on my MBA I just bumped iTunes media to G drive linked through Time Capsule. Now pointed iTunes at new iTunes libary on G drive and, even though all music files are there, iTunes can only 'see' 10 albums. Any help appreciated.

Bit more detail...
Mac Book Air has been struggling for space for a while so I bough at time capsule a) for back up and b) to host my itunes folder remotely. This didnt' work. I took it into the Genius bar and the genius there told me that time capsule is not designed for anything other than back up. Instead I have to connect a G drive through the time capsule's wireless router to my MBA.
I followed his instructions - moved my files from the Time Capsule and MBA directly onto the G Drive - which took a heartening 2 hrs so something must have been happening - and the held down 'Alt' when starting iTunes and selected the new itunes folder as the location of my itunes libarary which I wanted iTunes to 'point at'. When I opened iTunes only 10 albums are visible now.
In ITunes advanced preferences it says it is pointing at the correct folder. The files are all cleary there when I open the G Drive folder to take a look. But I cannot get iTunes to find them.
Any suggestions?
Secondary challenge - in spite of deleting the original itunes folder on my MBA I still get messages pop up telling me my start up disk is out of space and I need to clear some - I expected to stop getting this message now I had done this exercise above. I have emptied Trash. Again - any pointers appreciated. I am new to this world of 'intuitive' macbooks.
Cheers

After admittedly only a quick read the one thing you don't say is how you are trying to make this move. Most people with moving library issues do it the wrong way. Plenty of web sites tell you how to do it the wrong way.
If the iTunes application is started before the drive with the library is fully mounted and awake iTunes will revert back to the internal drive.

Gerber Files are incomplete!
