How can i retrieve an illustrator file after it crashes

Illustrator CC just crashed, is there any way I can retrieve my work I hadn't yet saved?

Miss Hannah,
I am afraid not.
The normal way is to save often, and maybe save to different names for large/important documents.
You may consider Autosaviour to avoid too great losses in the future:

    How can I retrieve my old files on important documents and informations?

    Contacts and calendars are designed to be synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service like iCloud, Google, or Exchange.
    Has the device been used as designed?  If so, simply re-sync them.
    Did you actually allow the device to finish restoring after installing the update?

  • How can I restore my ringtones files after an iTune software update?

    This has really upset me but I can't find anyone to help. If you can, it would be greatly appreciated.
    I have create a bunch of ringtones and they have been showing up fine on my iTune and synced to my iPhone without any problem. Recently, i have replaced my iPhone. One time the iTune asked me to relocate the library file when i started the application. Then I chose the latest library file in my system. After i did it, I realized that the ringtones are not on my iPhone anymore and they are all gone on my iTune.
    I tried to go in to the Windows files and look for those ringtone files but i have no clue where they are and how to identify them.
    How can i check if they might be hidden somewhere or they have been lost mysteriously?

    Hi cor-el,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I had been to that page during my search for solutions but found it a bit confusing, although I did create a new profile but didn't understand the choose folder part.
    I re-read the instructions and I have been able to restore my old profile.
    So, thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
    Re: running my Firefox from a non-administrator account
    I think this may have been the cause of the profile problem.
    I.e. when I selected 'Choose a folder' when creating the new profile, the default folder path was Administrator> etc., where as my old profile was not there, but in Username> etc. folder path...
    I understand browsing from a non-administrator account is the sensible security option, but is causes other problems when installing updates...
    Thanks for the help. It's much appreciated.
    Davoid.

  • How can I access my PhotoShop files after my free trial ends? (Mac OS)

    How can I? Adobe chat support said they could not help me. I do not believe I should have to pay Adobe for PhotoShop to access files I legally own (you have to love what they teach you about copyright in school) that are on my own personal computer. This isn't the biggest deal in the world, but I did spend a few hours on the files.

    They should be, but I can not find them (I have even dug deep into the Adobe files).
    I have reloved my problem.

  • How can I access restored pdf files after an operating system reload?

    was running Windows 8.1 w/ latest updates.  developed network properties errors. backed up all docs and restored PC back to Windows 8. Now, the restored pdf file security settings will not allow opening.

    Gosh. I found that I need to open the properties page for a pdf file; go to the security tab and click the advance button. Then click 'change' to the right of the owner line, and add me as   a user, and then give myself full permissions.
    OK, NOW, how can I do this globally at one time to affect all of my pdf files?

    Been in Afghanistan for the past year, can't remember the password I put on the iPOD touch before I left.  Tried all I thought it could be.  Does anyone know how I can retrieve the password?  Or, who I can contact to unlock it so I can either use the old one or change it if they can't figure out what it was?  Thanks.

    Thanks roaminggnome...
      I am currently in demobilization and have no manual...is there someone I can look that up on the web?  Thanks.

  • How can I retrieve a lost file in Time Machine?

    Hi,
    I'm using a Western Digital Elements 1TB external hard drive to back up my MacBook Pro.
    One day, I noticed that one of my fiels were missing, so I went in to the time machine looked for it (roughly the time period when I created it),
    but it wasn't there.
    Is it possible to loose files in time machine?
    Is there any way to retrieve them?
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Note: the User's Library is hidden by default. It's also hidden in Time Machine. You have to be in the User's Library in order to restore items from Time Machine.
    Under Go in the Menu bar hold down the Option key and select Library.
    Scroll down to the 'stickiesdatabase'
    If you don't see the file, open Stickies and create a new test sticky. This will create the 'stickiesdatabase'  file.
    Once you see the file, select the file.
    Enter Time Machine.
    You should enter in your User's Library showing the file.
    Go back in time to when your actual file existed with your data.
    Select Restore.

  • How can i retrieve my lost contacts after upgrading to iOS 5.1.1

    I just upgraded to to the iOS 5.1.1 and a few hours later all my contacts disappeared.  I tried to restore through iTunes but that did not work.  - UPDATE as I am writing this.  I got through to Apple Customer Service and because I had selected the option to backup to my computer (iMac 10.5.8) it was actually saving all my contacts to my "address book" app.  Since I never used that application I didn't even think to look there.  I just re-synced my contacts selecting "all contacts" and I was back in business. 

    I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but I'll try to answer!    You can either connect to iTunes and set up and activate there, or you can also use the setup assistant to set up your iPhone.  As far as carrier activation, you'll have to follow the protocol that your carrier uses.  Either switch SIM card, or call the number they use to allow device activation.  Is that what you were wanting to know?

  • How can I repair broken raw files after restoring  a PSE 11 catalog to a new PC?

    I recently purchased a new PC so a performed a Catalog Backup on the old PC and then restored it on the new PC.  All the files are there, however, all of the RAW files are not accessible.  They show up in the catalog with the broken file icon and cannot be opened.  Is there anyway to repair the RAW files without having to do a complete backup and restore again?   CW

    Thanks for the quick response.  If ACR is the Raw PlugIn I checked that and my camera is supported by the version I have.  I have been working with RAW files before with no problems.

  • How can I do a Session Restore after a crash from a week or so ago (i.e. not most recent)

    After a recent FF crash (Vsn 13.0.1 - I know) on the next start up it asked if I wanted to restore session, said yes - then realised all previous tabs were missing. Shut down and re-started nothing happened so checked Task List and found multiple versions (2) of FF in memory - ended those sessions.
    Tried to rename/re-use sessionstore.js and sessionrestore.bak but didn't contain tabs wanted, so I need to know if there is a way to 'undelete' previous sessionrestore.js files and use the one from a week or so ago to restore the tabs from then? I presume the same renaming procedure is used - could someone direct me to the procedure to do this?
    Thanks.

    I can find multiple (deleted) Sessionstore.js files with different dates and times in the n33mpvib.default folder, in 'good' condition. I have tried to save 1 from last week (to a different drive, E:) and then renamed sessionstore.js to *.old and copied in the recovered sessionstore.js from E: into n33mpvib.default folder, and restarted FF - didn't work.
    I can see all the tabs I had previously opened in the History, but can't remember which were still open (active) at the time of the crash.
    Is there something I am not doing correctly in the first paragraph procedure?

  • Can not restore all data/files after disk crash.

    I have a intel MacBook Pro (2008). Hard drive crashed. I replaced the drive and all is well with that. I re-installed Leopard and the Snow Leopard upgrade. Now I am trying to restore all my files/data from my external LaCie drive. All I am seeing is it says "copying to volumes". I don't see the files or anything on my new drive. What am I doing wrong??

    Not sure, but here is a link that may help:
