Major File Corruption Problem...

In the past week I suddenly have a file corruption problem that is destroying everything I'm working on. It first showed up when I converted a 16 bit file to 8 bit, but it now is happening if I add a layer and apply the High Pass filter, or add some Shadow & Highlight detail, then the layers begun to almost 'dissolve' and become more transparent…or they take on a block-like transparency. I'm attaching a couple of shots that show the kind of thing that is happening...
This was a fairly simple image with 5 separate image layers. When I added a layer and applied the High Pass, it corrupted the background layer to give me this...
You can see the icon in the Layers palate clearly shows the corrupted Background layer. There is also a bit showing on the Hi Pass Layer icon...
Next is a much larger (almost 2 GB) file with tons of layers that looked fine...
…but when the High Pass layer is isolated you can see the corruption clearly...
Shortly after taking these screen caps, the rest of the layers all got corrupted, and all the layer mask icons looked like checkerboards with the blocky transparency. Deleting the affected layers and adding them back in didn't help…they would just get corrupted again. Deleting the corrupted layers, saving the remaining file and quitting didn't help…opening the file again and attempting to add the layers back would result in still more corruption. I found some success in starting from scratch, doing one or two things, saving, then quitting Photoshop. Then I would duplicate the file, reopen Photoshop and do one or two things, save again, then quit Photoshop again…repeat a hundred times! Not exactly a workflow I can live with...
And the really messed up thing is that this is happening with both CS6 and the CC version. I'm working on a MacPro 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 24 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC, ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB card, on OS X 10.8.5
Any help will be greeted with loads of praise!

Thanks for your help…I think this has solved the issue. And two hours on the phone with India didn't get me anywhere…!!!

Major file corruption problem with iMovie

I've just updated to iMovie 09.
During the making of a 4-minute promo video, some of the features of iMovie stopped working - titles, for instance, and being able to insert photos into video. Then the 'share' feature quit, which meant that the piece I'd spent two weeks making couldn't be exported.
I called Support. The guy said, "The file's corrupted, you'll have to re-edit it as a new project."
So I began again. This time, though, I'm only a few hours into editing it and already the titles feature is no longer working and the 'share' tab can't be used, which I guess means the file is corrupted.
All other projects work perfectly, and I've uploaded several projects without problems.
So anyone know what the issue is here? A dud iLife program?
Also, is there any conceivable way of saving the original project, bypassing the share feature, and getting the video off my computer so that I can use it? I hate to see two weeks' work go down the toilet.

Undetectable / Irreparable File corruption problems lead to OSX hanging

Hi,
I have a Samsung 500Gb 5400rp disk in my MBP17 ( 2007 ).
Certain files appear to be corrupted.. ie. you try to open them and the whole Mac freezes for 30-40 seconds.
Disk Utility cannot detect a problem, nor can Diskwarrior. I've tried repairing permissions, repair disk, rebuild HFS directory, scan files for problems.. these erroneous files don't get detected at all.
Just try to open one and Finder/OSX hangs for ages. File copy programs just hang for ages including Migration Assistant, Finder Copy.
So migrating from my MBP17 to my new i7 MBP17 doesn't work at all due to these "ghost" file.
Appreciate any suggestions for how to get my files across to my new MBP.

Delete the corrupt files before migrating.

CS5 Major File Corruption

This is the second time that CS5 has completely wrecked a file. It happened after running a High Pass filter. As I was using the Hight Pass filter slider in the filter dialog the whole image was showing vertical and horizontal bands. I thought it was just a screen redraw issue (since there are so many in CS5!!) but after I applied the filter my image looked like the attached. When I zoomed out the "damage" went away so I thought for sure it was a screen issue. I save the image (as a copy thankfully) and then quit CS5. When I opened the file again it was corrupt and showed the corruption at any zoom.
The same pattern is on a few of the layers layers and a few of the layer masks. In other words it blew up my entire file - layer by layer.
I can't post the entire image since it is not released but here's an idea as to the damage. Any ideas as to what is happening here?

Chris,
I tried to reproduce but it was a no go. The last time this happened (months ago) the layers and masks looked like the attached (the soft diagonal lines are the corruption.) Does that also look like bad RAM? Does it look like it's related in any way? I'm all for it being bad RAM. At least then I would have confidence in CS5.
All of the RAM shows okay in the System Profiler. Is there software to further test the RAM? Could it be the RAM config?

Unable to publish to .mac - RSS file corruption problems?

Help, I'm using iWeb 1.1.2, and when I publish I get an unable to publish error. I try the rec'd "Publish All" option to no avail. Then, when scanned files on my idisk, I discovered that some of my rss files, while they are identified as "rss.xml" by name, they are described as a PBEM Game File. Initially, when I clicked on the rss.xml file it opened a silly suite of games tat cam eon my Mac. So, I associated the file with Safari rather than the Big Bang Game program. This changed the file kind to xml. However, when I tried publishing again, it converted the file back to a Game File?
Any way to get those RSS files to go up to my iDisk as xml and not the game files? And, how did they get associated withteh game anyway?

Sync File Corruption with 64-bit Vista/iTunes

I'm getting some file corruption problems when trying to sync my new 16GB iPhone with the latest 64-bit iTunes (7.6.0.29). "yes I have the 64-bit version".
The sync seems to go correctly, but I have yet to be able to play any videos all the way through. Videos purchased from iTunes as well as self encoded files. All said files were working on my 60GB iPod Video with previous versions of iTunes on the same 64-bit Vista machine.
The videos will start playing fine, but will eventually reach a point in the file that was corrupted during transfer, the audio will drop out and the video will distort, then it exits from the video as if it reached the end of the file. No error messages or anything. If I play the file again, it will do the same thing at the exact same spot, so its a problem in the file. Now, if I remove the file and add it back, the file still has the same problem, but in a different location, which means the source is fine, but the copy to the device during the sync is the issue.
To test, I synced the exact same content from my notebook which is 32-bit XP, and zero problems. So I'm currently just using my notebook for syncing at the moment.
Anyone else with 64-bit Vista have a similar issue?

Hello
I have a couple troubleshooting steps I would like you to try. I myself do not have a 64 bit Vista so I can not test this to confirm if the same issue occurs or not.
1. Attempt to Sync content using each of the USB Ports. See if all USB Ports pose the same issue with the video. Or if you found when where it does not occur.
2. Test on a new user on the Vista Machine. If possible take at least one or 2 movies and copy them onto a flash drive or something. And bring them into iTunes on a new user account. You may need to Authorize that user and De-authorize when your done. Does the same issue occur?
3. If you perform a reboot on the iPhone, Then Sync Data over. Does the same issue occur?
4. If possible could you restore the iPhone. Then Re-sync and see if same issue occurs.
5. Is this happening with all videos? or only certain ones? Does the corruption occur at the same time frame every time? If so is it the same time frame for all videos or slightly different?
6. Perform an Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes on your system, See if same issue occurs.
Let us know how it goes.

File corruption on SDCard when multiple files are being written from WinCE 6.0R3

We currently have file corruption problems which we have been able to reproduce on our system which uses WinCE 6.0R3. We have an SDCard in our system which is mounted as the root FS. When multiple files are being written to the file system we occasionally
see file corruption with data destined from one file, ending up in another file, or in another location in the same file. We have already written test SW that we have been able to use to reproduce the problem, and have worked with the SDCard vendor to
check that the memory controller on the card is not the source of the problems.
We know that the data we send to WriteFile() is correct, and that the data which eventually gets sent through the SDCard driver to the SD card is already corrupted.
We believe that the problem is somewhere in the microsoft private sources between the high level filesystem API calls and the low level device calls that get the data onto the HW.
We have confirmed that the cards that get corrupted are all good and this is not a case ofpoor quality flash memory in the cards. The same cards that fail under WinCE 6.0R3 never fail under the same types of testing on Windows, Mac OX, or linux. We
can hammer the cards with single files writes over and over, but as soon as multiple threads are writing multiple files it is only a matter of time before a corruption occurs.
One of the big problems is that we are using the sqlcompact DB for storing some data and this DB uses a cache which get's flushed on it's own schedule. Often the DB gets corrupted because other files are being written when the DB decides to flush.
So we can reproduce the error (with enough time), and we know that data into the windows CE stack of code is good, but it comes out to the SDcard driver corrupted. We have tried to minimize writes to the file system, but so far we have not found a
way to make sure only one file can be written at once. Is there a setting or an API call that we can make to force the OS into only allowing one file write at a time, or a way of seeing how the multiple files are managed in the private sources?
Thanks
Peter

All QFE's have been applied we are building the image so we have some control.
I have build an image which used the debug DLL's of the FATFS and I have enabled all of the DebugZones. The problem is still happening. From the timings in the debug logs and the timestamps in the data which corrupts the test file I have been able
to see that the file is corrupted AFTER the write is complete. Or at least that's how it seems.
We finished writing the file and closed the handle. Then more data is written to other files. When we get around to verifying the file it now contains data from the files that were subsequently written.
What I think I need to do is figure out in detail how the two files were "laid down" onto the SDCard. If the system used the same cluster to write the 2 files then that would explain the issue.

Canon5d problem processing to jpegs, files corrupt or truncate

I'm baffled. I am using both CS2 & CS3. I have a mac dual 2.0 with OSX 10.4.11. The camera is a Canon 5d. Here's the deal. When I batch process or even single process, some of the files develop truncated. The thumbnails have between 10% to 90%of the image visible, it varies. There is no pattern, sometimes it does every file sometimes maybe 1 out of 10. Some files still open as Jpeg's others have the file corrupted message and then open exactly like the thumbnails, a portion of the image the rest grey. If I try developing the image again, it usually corrects on the first try, sometimes 2nd or 3rd, it always eventually develops complete. This does not happen in the canon raw conversion but I don't like it. I had all the current updates in both CS2 and CS, I just reinstalled CS3 without updates, still does it. I tried it using a 10d, no problem. I have 5.5 gigs of memory. Any ideas? Thanks Lance.

Re routine maintenance:
I still advocate Repairing Permissions (with Apple's Disk Utility) before AND after any system update or upgrade, as well as before AND after installing any software that requires an installer that asks for your password.
I have seen software installations go sour because the installer did not find everything as and where it should be.
I have also seen software installations go bad because the installer did not clean up after itself properly and did not leave everything as and where it should be.
This is just my own personal opinion and practice based on my own observations. Others may disagree and that's OK. I can only base my routines and my advice to others on my own experience and conclusion. I don't pretend to know why others believe otherwise.
Repairing Permissions after the fact (i. e. not immediately before and after an install) may NOT help. Try it anyway, though.

Additionally, if your machine does not run 24/7 so that it runs the daily, weekly and monthly Cron Scripts in the middle of the night as intended by Apple, run Cocktail (shareware) as well.
Cron Scripts are maintenance routines designed by Apple to run on a daily, weekly and monthly basis in the middle of the night.
If you don't run them, you WILL run into trouble, sooner rather than later.
Here's an excerpt from the Apple tech doc http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107388
Mac OS X performs background maintenance tasks at certain times if the computer is not in sleep mode. If your computer is shut down or in sleep at the designated times, the maintenance does not occur. In that case, you may want or need to run these manually.
Mac OS X periodically runs background tasks that, in part, remove system files that are no longer needed. This includes purging older information from log files or deleting certain temporary items. These tasks do not run if the computer is shut down or in sleep mode. If the tasks do not run, it is possible that certain log files (such as system.log) may become very large.
Also, from: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106978
The disk activity generated by find is a normal part of file system maintenance, used for tasks such as removing invisible temporary files that are used by the system. It is scheduled to occur early in the morning at 03:15 everyday, 04:30 on Saturdays, and 05:30 on the first day of each month.
NOTE:
There have been comments to the effect that Apple "fixed" this in 10.4.2 and later versions of the OS, but I have not been able to verify this to my satisfaction. The reference in the 10.4.2 release notes are far from explicit on this subject.

Looks like the installer you downloaded is corrupted. You need to download the installer again. I don't know where you downloaded the installer from but get it from [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Firefox website]

Invisible corrupted music files / progressive problem

I just discovered I have a growing corruption problem in iTunes. It seems to be affecting only songs which I have created myself from my own commercial CDs. Sons acquired over the internet are not affected.
All of my songs show up in the master list on iTunes. I am syncing to a 1st generation 4gig Nano. I am at the capacity limit or within 25 mgs below the limit. I recently realized that I wasn't listening to some of my music & I thought that was odd. I then discovered that the songs are invisible & cannot be accessed on the Nano.
I removed the songs from iTunes & trashed the files. I tried to recreate the songs again from the original comercial CD. I again found out I could not sync them to the Nano. The message I recieved was that the songs in selected playlists could not be added because they exceeded the storage amount on the Nano. iTunes indicated the total storage amount on the Library was at 3.75mgs at this point.
I found that if I deleted them again & synced, I could. So far so good.
Now I have found that even after going through the ENTIRE library and trashing every single file that appeared in the library but did not show up on my Nano, this problem is a progressive problem & is converting what I thought to be safe files into corrupted files.
What can I do about this? I am now spending 1 hr each time I want to sync & is becoming a night mare.
I also considered trashing iTunes & reinstalling, but I
a) cannot find the root application on the HD
b) cannot find the original iTunes older (not 7.02) application anywhere.
mac Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Have you done the '5 R's' to your Nano? http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
FYI - the Nano will not actually hold 4 gig - it will be a little less - but you knew that.
All tunes on the Nano/iPod are 'invisible' by default when viewed via the Finder. You can view the files by using a program that will show you invisible files such as TinkerTool.
Your iTunes app should be in the Applications folder. If not then do a Spotlight search of your HD.
To find older versions of iTunes go here http://www.oldapps.com/downloadiTunesmac.php
You will need to remove from the HD>Library>Receipts>iTunesX.pkg - move the iTunesX.pkg to the trash along with the iTunes app.

File corruption with a very large .ai file

A little background first:
I am a graphic designer/cartographer with 15+ years of experience. I started making maps in Illustrator with version 6 and have upgraded to every version since.
My machines:
2x Mac Pro 8-core 3.0GHz, 16GB RAM, 10.5.7
Mac Pro quad-core 2.66GHz, 8GB RAM, 10.5.7
MacBook Pro 2.0GHz, 2GB RAM, 10.5.7
Illustrator specs:
All machines have CS4 installed as well as Illustrator 10.
The 8-core MPs have the MAPublisher Plug-ins installed
The 4-core and MacBook Pro (MBP) does not have the MAPublisher Plug-ins
The problem I am having can be replicated on each of the machines. The MBP can't handle the file due to RAM. Since this occurs on machines that has MAPublisher installed and a machine that does not, I think we can rule out a plug-in issue.
File specs:
The original file: version 10, file size (uncompressed, no PDF support, and no font-embedding) is 36.4 MB. There are no raster effects or embedded/placed images. This is strictly a vector file. Artboard Dimensions: 85.288 in x 81.042 in
The original file, converted with CS4, and then saved as a CS4 file: file size (uncompressed, no PDF support, and no font-embedding) is 97.9 MB.
Brief Description of the problem:
I have tried to convert this file into every version of CS and it has failed every time. With each version, it has resulted in an unusable file for different reasons. CS-CS3, the file was completely unusable because of the opening/saving time. It could take as long as 3 hours to save the file. With CS4, this has been rectified and I once again tried to convert it. Upon re-opening of the 'converted' CS4 native file, the file is 'corrupted'.
The file corruption is not your regular "This file can't be opened because of: X" corruption. The file opens after a save/close just fine. It is just that parts of the file gets destroyed. To save space in this post, I have created a webpage that illustrates the problem that I am having:
http://newatlas.com/ai_problem/
I have tried everything possible to make the file smaller and it is as slimmed down as I can make it. (Using symbols, styles, etc.) I have also tried to eliminate this as a font problem by replacing every font with an Adobe supplied font, cleared caches, etc. This does not work, so I think we can rule out a font issue. I have also reduced this file to contain no pattern fills, no gradients, and just used simple fills and strokes. All to no avail. I have also tried piecing the file back together into a new document by copying/pasting a layer at a time. Saving, closing and re-opening after each paste cycle. I can get about 95% of it put back together and then it will manifest the problem. The only thing I haven't done is to convert all of the type to outlines. This would not solve my problem since this is a map that I continually work on year after year. I also can't remove objects or cut the overall area of the map because this file is used to produce an atlas book, a wall map and custom boundary wall maps. You can view the entire file at:
http://okc.cocpub.com
If I do not convert the legacy text, the file saves/closes/re-opens just fine. It just takes a very long time. So this leads me to think that the cause of the problem is the number of editable type objects that this file has. Ever since Adobe changed the Type Engine, I haven't been able to use this file in current versions of Illustrator.
If I could get this file to open, uncorrupted, I could finally get rid of Illustrator 10. Illustrator 10 does not have any problem with this file (and is still faster than CS4 in everything except selecting a lot of objects.)
I am posting this on the forums for any other opinions/ideas from the 'Illustrator Gurus' as a first step. I want to get in contact with someone at Adobe to see if we can address this problem and possibly get it fixed with CS5. I know that this is a user-to-user forum, but I'm not sure who, where and how to contact Adobe for this issue. Maybe someone on these forums can help with that as well.
Thank you for your patience for getting this far in my long post and I would really appreciate any response.
Dave

Thanks Wade for responding,
Did you try trashing your Adobe Illustrator CS4 Settings folder in your User's Preferences?
Yes, I've tried deleting prefs. Basically I've tried to rule out any problems with Illustrator as a whole. This issue has also occured on a clean install of OS X and Illustrator on a new User Account with the opening of this file being the first task that Illustrator has. There is no problem with Illustrator per se, but I think it is more of a limitation in Illustrator based on the number of type objects.
You could also try saving it out of 10 as a pdf or as postscript and distilling it then open that in ai or place it id a blank AI document.
Did you try to place instead of opening it?
I haven't tried any of these since the resulting file would be utterly unusable. Basically this would create a 'flat' file with 'broken' strings of text (type on a path especially) and type being uneditable. (Now that I think about it, CS4 does a much better job of opening pdfs without breaking type.) I still think this approach is not really a prudent course of action since, as of now, I can continue to maintain this map in Illy 10.
In my experimentation, the results are as follows:
1. Opening the file without updating the legacy type, saving the file as a new document, closing and then re-opening results in a file you would expect. Every object is where it is supposed to be. Downfall of this method: I absolutely need the type to be editable, especially the 'Street Type' since this type is actually used to create map indexes.
2. Opening the file with updating the legacy type, saving the file as a new document, closing and then re-opening results in a file that exhibits the exact behavior that has been posted in the thread-starter. This method results in the 'Bruce Gray' type being the duplicated item.
3. Opening the file without updating the legacy type, then splitting the file into layer groups and saving as separate files. Then opening the resulting CS4 files, updating the legacy type, copy & pasting (with layer structure) into a new document results in a usable file up to a point. I can get about 95% of it put back together and then the problem manifests. I have thought that it might be a "bad" object on one of the layers but I have ruled that out by: a.) All of the resulting sub-files (files that are portions of the larger) exhibit no problems at all. Usually our PS printers find issues that Illy does not and there is no problem in RIPing the sub-files. b.) If I change the paste order, meaning copying & pasting from the top-most layers to the bottom-most layers, vice-versa, and a completely random paste order, different objects (other than the 'Bruce Gray' type) will be duplicated. I've had one of my park screens, a zip code type object and a school district boundary be the duplicated object.
All of these experiments has lead me to believe that the Illustrator Type Engine is the main facilitor. I just don't think it can handle that many individual point type objects. I know CS4 can handle the number of objects, based on the fact that a legacy type (non-updated) file works.
I am almost entirely sure that Illustrator is working exactly as it is supposed to and that the vast majority of Illy users will never run into this issue. This file is by far the largest file that I work on. I would just like to be able to use an Intel native version of CS to continue maintaining this map.
On a side note: About three years ago, I tried working with this file in Freehand MX. Freehand initially would open the Illy file without a problem. I could work on it but when I would save it as a Freehand file, close it and re-open it, I would get your standard File Corruption. It would partially open, give me a corruption dialog, and open the file as a blank document. I alwa ys knew there was a reason to use Illustrator over Freehand for making maps.

File structures report shows many suspect files: A problem?

Hi friends.
As a part of the MacUpdate springbundle I got the TechTool pro 5. I ran it to check if everything was running as intended, but when it got to the "File structures" job, it found more than 2000 "suspect files" with errors like: "File corrupted - may not load properly", "XML parser couldn't parse file" and "XML file has unbalanced brackets".
What I'm basically asking of you is the following: is this an issue? Should I be worries, and if so, how would I go about fixing it? As I said, it has over 2000 suspect files, with the vast majority as "File corrupted". To be quite honest, such a huge number of issues makes me quite unsettled.
Thanks for your help

Is there a cure for persistent file corruptions across the suite?

i am having terrible and consistent problems with file corruptions across the suite. for example…
1: i collected for output (indesign) – corrupted over 100 small images that were linked.
2: opened an indesign job and all linked files failed to update and could not be imported (simply would not import those files and were all corrupted).
3: had a hang in photoshop followed by a 150:30 error (would not open any of my applications). this prompted a clean install of system and adobe cs4 see below
4: most recently, had a hang in photoshop (photoshop will also no "force quit") whilst indesign was open. two of my image files corrupted and, most surprisingly, all my illustrator files that i had placed also corrupted (will not even open in illustrator any more). illustrator was not even running at the time, so, get this – a hang in photoshop destroys illustrator files simply because they are placed in indesign.
this last event has made me more certain than ever that there is a fundamental problem at the cs4 core.
can anyone help?
please note the following:
i am running a macintosh imac, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (latest imac), with 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 ram.
before this last disaster, i had reloaded the system software (archive and install), and updated it all the way to version 10.5.8
i then uninstalled the creative suite, ran the cleanscript from adobe, reloaded the creative suite, downloaded all the cs4 updates
(so, latest mac, latest system, latest cs4 – all clean installs).
is there something i can do? or is this just a very unstable and disappointing upgrade – i have had nothing but problems from day one!
many thanks if anyone has any advice.

Re: 150:30 error:
Please try this KB article's solutions, and report back on how it went for you. If you can provide details about any recent OS updates, backups, or migrations, that would help is nail down the root cause of the new rash of this error for Mac users recently:

RESTORE LOG is terminating abnormally.
can this happened due to data base or log file corruption, if so how can i check on that to verify the issue
Its not necessary if the issue is with network it would happen every day IMO it basically happens when load on network is high and you transfer log file which is big in size.
As per message database engine was not able to restore log backup and said that you must rebuild log because it did not find out log to be consistent. From here it seems log corruption.
Is it the same log file you restored ? if that is the case since log file was corrupt it would ofcourse give error on wehatever server you restore.
Can you try creating logshipping on new server by taking fresh full and log backup and see if you get issue there as well. I would also say you to raise case with Microsoft and let them tell what is root cause to this problem
