Is there anyway to recover damaged audio from a crash?

I am at my wit's end.  This is the second time I have had soundbooth give me a message that it has had a "fatal error and needs to close" and when I reopen the file I have been working on it is completely gone.
Ugg.  Is there anyway to recover previous versions of the file or Im I just out of luck and need record and edit the hours of work all over again!
If there is anyway to recover my work I would greatly appreciate any help.
When I called adobe they were happy to help for an 80 dollar service fee which wouldnt even guarantee any success in solving the problem.  Thanks for your customer support Adobe! : (

Sorry I can't help with an answer you're probably hoping for, but don't think there is one that will bring your file back. When you create a project with other adobe products it makes copies of those files you are working with. Soundbooth does not and uses your sound file live, basically. If you make a change to an audio file and save it has a direct effect over your original sound file.
I think there are ways to import files where soundbooth will use them as copies, but I may be thinking of Audition from years ago...
Either way, if it's important to you, I recommend making a backup of the files you'll be working with before even thinking about opening them in any editing program, especially ones like Soundbooth. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but as long as we learn from our lessons, at least we can prevent them from repeating (hopefully). As the saying goes "Happens once, shame on you,,, happens twice, shame on me" ;-)
Take care,

  • Is there anyway to 'hear' the audio from videos on 4th gen or less iPod

    I would like to download some of the 'video podcasts' and only want to 'listen' to them. Is there any way to do this on a 20G iPhoto? I don't need or want the visuals.

    Only the 5th Generation iPod with video will load video podcast files. Video format files are not compatible with iPods that are not video enabled.

  • I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either.  I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too.  is there anyway to recover these documents?

    I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either.  I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too.  is there anyway to recover these documents?

    On a mac, when you save docs to icloud, a local copy is also saved.  It's saved at:
    ~/Library/Mobile Documents
    Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
    The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
    If the file(s) are no longer there, then use your Time Machine backups to get copies back to the mac.

  • HT5395 Is there anyway to recover my iMessage history from my iPhone to my Mac? Thank you!

    Is there anyway to recover my iMessage history from my iPhone to my Mac? Thank you!

    HI,
    Sorry I should have been clearer.
    The only way to move any iMessages from and iPhone to a Mac is at the point when they are using the same Apple ID.
    Older items are not included in this "Sync".
    Messages on a Mac will read older .ichat files (Saved Chats).
    It seems that the iMessages on the iPhone do get stored in any iPhone Backup and that can be used to Restore Messages from one iPhone to another.
    People state that there are utilities for extracting the iMessages (either from the current display or the Backups) but I have not read that any will then enable the result to be imported in to Messages.

  • Is there anyway to recover synced over songs?

    I bought the new iphone 5 the other day and went to sync my old iphone 4 to my new computer. I received a new laptop because the old one fried... losing all my itunes content. I foolishly thought that if I downloaded itunes onto my new laptop and plugged my old iphone 4 into it... that it would just sync/back up all my music to itunes and my library would be restored.... WRONG. The sharing option was on and it deleted my entire library and replaced it with another member of the house's library. Is there anyway to recover my old itunes songs without having a back up of them? The only music that is in my iphone now is my husbands music that synced accidentally from sharing. Mine is gone.
    Thanks

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer, for just such an occasion.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can redownload itunes purchases.  You cannot get any other music.

    There is hope! Open iTunes and on the right side browser select the new "Purchased" tab.  There you will be able to enter your apple ID and download your purchased music from the cloud!  Hope this finds your well!

    I have years worth of music on my PC that is about to die.  If I get an iPad is there anyway to get the music from my PC onto the iPad? I have the iCloud but my understanding is only music actually purchased from iTunes lives int he cloud. I have music that was legally purchased and loaded to my iTunes account from cd's that I no longer own.  I need a new laptop and am deciding between the iPad and the Mac book.  I use the computer for music, photos, and web - nothing else and nothing fancy.  I don't know that there is a way to save my huge music library without saving it to an external hard drive and then loading it to a new one (does the iPad have a port to plug an external hard drive into?)

    First, you would need to make a backup of the entire iTunes folder on the PC. You could get music to the iPad if the PC was still functioning, or you would have to move the music to another computer. An iPad is not a laptop, and does not have a port to plug an external drive into. You can sync music to the iPad from the computer, but you are correct, unless you get iTunes Match, you would need a computer to copy the music to and then sync to an iPad.

    Hello cheech07,
    The following article contains directions that can help get you back on track with iTunes. I'd recommend picking up at 'Part 5' of the 'External drive' section.

  • Is there anyway to recover files permanently deleted in trash after a two month period?

    I deleted some files that I thought I transferred to an external hard drive.  However, after 2 months, I realized that all of the files did not transfer and I deleted them in trash about two months ago.  Is there anyway to recover these files? 

    Probably not. All I can suggest is you contact a recovery service, but it's expensive and since you've been using the machine for over two months, most likely they're overwritten.
