Lost .cp file?

So here’s a weird question.  Why is it that after I record and publish a project, all I’m left with is the new .swf files and not the original .cp file?  Every time I publish as a .swf I loose my original .cp file and therefore can’t do any additional editing.  I’ve looked through all my folders and can’t seem to find the original file.  Am I missing something here?  Thanks for your help.

Hi there
This can happen for a variety of reasons. Where are you attempting to save the .CP file? Local PC or on a network drive? If you say Network Drive, try local PC as you will likely have much better results.
If you are using Captivate 4, see if you have a file with a .BAK extension. You may be able to recover using that. Otherwise, if using an older version, see if you have a .TMP file. Sometimes you can rename the .TMP to .CP and recover.
Cheers... Rick

  • Please help me recover a lost PDF file from Adobe Reader XI

    Hi,
    I was filling out a VA form 5655 in Adobe, and twice today, I lost my file and I just cannot type all of this stuff again, because I had to do so much math and typing and more math.  All of a sudden "bloop", it was gone.  When I try to go into file, then revert, revert is not highlighted.  I tried pulling up history and it said there was no history.  I just don't know what else to do, and I need this for the morning.  Please help?  Thanks

    Hi Pat,
    I filled it out directly from the blank PDF online, and never got a chance
    to save the whole document.  I did however save it about 1/2 way through,
    but yet cannot find that 1/2 of the document either.  Thanks.

    Well, iCloud has nothing to do with this.
    Do you have the built-in backup function Time Machine running on your Mac?

  • I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

    I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

    By default iWeb keeps its data in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb in a file named Domain. Without this file you cannot proceed (other than by recreating the site from scratch using the published version as a reference) so you need to locate it on the original disk.
    To confuse matters, Apple have hidden the user’s Library folder in Lion and Mountain Lion to casual viewers, in an attempt to stop new Mac users messing their machines up. To access it, in the Finder go to the ‘Go’ menu and hold down the Option (Alt) key; the Library folder will appear as a choice.

  • Lost the 'file, edit' etc'task bar on the left side of my mail menu.  my upper left screen reads 'welcome to lightroom moblie.  I never had nor can use these.  how do i back to basic LR and upper left task bar?

    I have lost my 'file,edit, ...' task bar from the upper left side of my LR screen.  My upper left corner now reads something about welcome to Lightroom mobile. ( I have never had or used the mobile version and I can't use it anyway. )  When I push my mouse pointer up again the top of the screen the 'file, edit,...' does not reappear and stay as it has been doing for the last 3 years.  How can I get it back?  And, maybe what did I do so I can avoid this from happening again?  Thank you.  (I am not PC knowledgeable, please bear with me.)

    Does the menu bar appear when you move your mouse pointer to the top of your display. If so then you could change the behavior of Lightroom via the menu Window->Screen Mode
    Hope that helps

  • My computer broke and i lost all files including ITunes. what happens to all the stuff purchased already. will this appear in itues when i download it agian? how can i save the music on my ipod and transfere it over to the new itunes?

    my computer broke and i lost all files including ITunes. what happens to all the stuff purchased already. will this appear in itues when i download it agian? how can i save the music on my ipod and transfere it over to the new itunes?

    Unfortunely, all movies and songs purchased in iTunes will be lost...you'll have to purchase them again! Any applications you've purchased, you can download again for free.
    Music Rescue is a program you can use to transfer any and all data (music, movies, pictures..) from your iPod to your computer, and iTunes.

  • I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    On your iMac launch iTunes and at the top next to the Apple symbol click iTunes > Preferences > Devices and tell me what you see. You last sync should be there showing only a device name. If you have an older backup it will be there as well the difference is it will be the device name with a date and time stamp. Sync and backups are two different things and there is a chance iTunes made a backup the first time you hooked up your iPhone 5. 

  • Lost iWeb file, how can I get it from web?

    I have a iWeb webiste published, but I lost the file in iWeb. Is there a way to download the page from the internet and continue to edit it with iWeb?

    us234455
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    As you are learning somewhat painfully, iWeb stores all data created in the application in a single file, Domain. This file, by default, is placed on your hard drive in this location.
    iWeb generates html as it publishes your site; it is not possible to import published pages back into the application. You will have to copy and paste as much as possible from your pages as viewed from a browser.
    Make sure to back up this file from now on. Varkgirl has given us a great little automator app which can be downloaded free here. Use this app for duplicating your Domain file for backup purposes.

  • I lost my files trying to up date my iPod touch can recover them?

    I don't want to restore my ipod if I lost my files help me!

    If they are an iPod backup than restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    To see what is in the iPod backup see:
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    If you restore from iTunes (vice iCloud) you have to have the apps in your iTunes library since they are not included in the backup.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Locating lost original files, I lost purchased songs

    Locating lost original files. I can no longer listen to several songs I purchased. I get a message that the "original file cannot be located." What to do?

    If the upgrade to Vista somehow erased the files, you'll need to restore them from your backup or, if a feature of the country you're in, download the content again from the iTunes Store. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    Note that movies can be re-downloaded only in the US as of right now, and then not all movie studios have granted that license.

  • 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.

    I AM GOING TO SAY THANK YOU SO MUCH NOW COS THATS HOW MUCH IT MEANS TO ME:-)

    Hi CcjNZek,
    In case we have misunderstanding, please explain a bit about the following questions:
    1. Do you mean that we lost some files when we failed in the process of transferring files by Bluetooth?
    2. What do you mean about the sentence ‘usb'd to a pc’?
    3. Do you use the phone to connect the Bluetooth? If so, please check if you have backed up those files.
    We could check the default folder of the file transfer.
    As we use the Windows 8.1, we could use the File History to restore your file in the Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, and Desktop folders and the OneDrive files available offline on your PC.

    1. Probably not. Back up anyway; any random event, whether related to the installation or not, may cause data loss.
    2. See above.
