Saved file doesn%27t match original text

Using LV 2010.  I have an application where I'm encrypting a file and saving it to the hard drive as a text file.  The problem I'm having is that the string of characters that I'm writing to the file does not match the string of characters that are read from the file.  The files match for the first 10 characters, then in the original string, there is a \r character that is dropped from the file.  The rest of the file doesn't match too well after that.  Also, the size of the strings are different too by a few thousand characters.  Is there some setting in the file read or write that could be causing this?  Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here's a quick example (LabVIEW 2010). Result is always true in my limited testing.
Here's the string IO version:
(It is a bit more complicated when using the binary file IO:
(1) wire false to prepend array or string size when writing.
(2) wire -1 to count when reading.

  • Flash CS5.5, SWF file doesn't load TLF text.

    Hiya,
    I just downloaded the trial version of Flash 5.5. I was trying to a tutorial from  Adobe Classroom in a Book: Flash Professional CS5. I was trying to do lesson 7 which is all about TLF text.
    In the tutorial, you insert text that is TLF text. Most of the text doesn't do anything (it's Read-Only). But there is one area that is supposed to be a Mortgage Calcualtor and functions with ActionScript.
    I inserted the ActionScript that makes the Mortgage Calculator text do the proper math. My problem happens when I try to test the movie: the SWF file doesn't display any of the TLF text, and the Output panel gives me the following:
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable TLFTextField is not defined.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable TCMText is not defined.
    I am confused because there aren't any variables with those names in any of the files of the tutorial, or in the ActionScript I entered. Where is Flash getting those variable names from? O_o
    I even turned the text back into Classic text to see if that helped, but I still get the error. Could this be a glitch with Flash 5.5?
    Thanks for your time.
    Tara

    That file has all the menu items in it.
    A crossdomain file is use as a security measure. Perhaps I see it because I use a webpage on my own server to display your SWF file. Check to see if that's the case with you.
    But I gave it another try.
    I downloaded the menu.swf and the xml file and stored them in a folder. I use a custom webpage and stored that in the same folder.
    Instead of the full URL is simply use the filename.
    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="obj1"
    codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/ flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" border="0"
    width="870" height="800">
    <param name="movie" value="menu.swf">
    <param name="quality" value="High">
    <embed src="menu.swf"
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="obj1"
    width="870" height="150"></object>
    That works.
    When I paste the <object> code in the HTML Snippet and use relative URLs to the menu in the folder mentioned above, I noticed that the XMLHorizontalMenu.xml is expected to be in the Pagename_files folder. That folder belongs to the iWeb pages it is embedded in. When I put the xml file there, the menu works.
    You have to check the design of the menu.swf file.
    Otherwise, store all files in a separate folder and use a <iframe> to embed it.

  • Signed JNLP file doesn't match JNLP file on webserver?

    Hi,
    using Java 1.6.0(_13) Webstart says, that the JNLP file is not signed.
    So I added my JNLP file as JNLP-INF/APPLICATION.JNLP into the client jar.
    I signed my jar with my cert from thawte and copied the JNLP file to the unix webserver.
    Now Webstart says that the JNLP file from the webserver doesn't match with the signed one.
    Does anyone have some practical experience with signing JNLP files and knows the common pitfalls.
    What are the issues that could let this fail, CR/LF or a bug ?
    Best regards

    Its from an Android device?  Maybe incompatible Java versions.  In Utilities launch the Java Preferences app and look at the enabled version information (General tab).  Perhaps click the Restore Defaults button.

  • Deleted user account saved file doesn't contain latest files

    Someone I know deleted one of the users accounts on their iMac. Not the admin account. When doing this there was an option to save the account files. That was done. After rebooting to the 1 account that was left, the admin account they opened the .dmg saved user file from the deleted account. But that file did not include any of the new files over the past few months like files on the desktop or iphoto stuff. The desktop files that were saved were from months ago and everything else was old.
    Any ideas what happened to all the current files from that account?
    thx

  • PDF file doesn't match Illustrator file...? Please help

    hi all,
    We have had a very unusual situation that need your help to find out.
    Description: The artwork is an outlined Illustrator file is absolutely correct as the client wanted it be. Before sending it for production, we make an PDF file of that approved artwork. Well... The pdf DID NOT match the artwork and IT SHOULD MATCH.
    Some of the vector background drop out/missing, some of the transparency of vector artwork went to 100% or wrong transparency...
    Software used: Adobe Illustrator CS3 version 13.0.2 / Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional version 8.1.3
    Hardware: MacPro 4Gb Ram, OS X10.5.6
    thanks a lot for you help,

    Thanks Laura,
    This incident happened only once. I re-made another PDF using the same method and it was fine. I tried many time but I can't replicate the error/problem. The areas where was dropped out in the PDF is a solid color oval with 80% transparency, the other area is a gradient color with 100% transparency. There are similar areas like those in the document but strange enough they are not affected....
    The PDF is exactly as expected on the Overprint Preview (using the very same outlined AI file, there is NO spot colors).

  • Illustrator CS6 is not saving files properly.

    I'm having issues with Illustrator CS6 (16.0.0) saving my files properly.  Let me give you some background here.
    I work for a company that manufactures fishing lures.  I have to create the product cards that these products are to be packaged.  I use Illustrator CS6 to create my cards and I save a master file that includes the original text.  From there, I save the file as an Illustrator CS3 file since most printers I dealt with don't have anything versions higher than CS3.  I take these cards and convert the text to an object so that no one has to deal with fonts or mismatched font errors.  After this, I create a PDF of that same file so that my contacts at the print shop can see the card files and keep a reference for themselves.  On several occasions now, I've gotten emails from my clients saying that they need the necessary fonts to print these cards.  I check my files that should now be all objects and its back to being font text again.  I double check these files beore sending them but if I should have to close out these files and work on another project, then come back to files I've working on.  The objects are now back to fonts again.  All the while, I'm saving my progress.  I've been bitten too many times on this in the past, so I'm a saving freak.
    I'm using an iMac (2011) 3.4 Ghz Intel Core i7 with 16 gig of RAM, 2 gig AMD Radeon HD 6970M graphics, several hard drives (most being network drives) including the 1TB HD that came with the computer, MacOS 10.8 (Mountian Lion) - the same occurs with any flavor of MacOS 10.7 (Lion) too.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Wayne

    Wayne,
    You have used Type>Create Outlines, with no live Type left behind (after saving the original artwork, of course), no?
    What if you Save As PDF, thus embedding the font(s), and they take it from there?

  • One https site when loading pages driven by aspx Firefox wants to save as a file; doesn't happen in IE or Chrome.

    I have been having problems loading https pages from a bank that I have used without issues for a long time. The bank has recently updated their site and this did co-incide with the problem starting. The issue seems to be related to aspx pages. When I click to go to one of the aspx driven pages Firefox wants to download it as a file. If I do that the saved file comes up as HTML text when loaded. No problems when loading the same pages in IE or Chrome. In addition, the bank's older pages did not have this problem with Firefox Betas.

    Thanks, that did the trick, although I had to clear the cookie again after loading the site. Having tte cookie there doesn't seem to bother Chrome or IE, so, is this an issue with the way Firefox deals with this site? I have no problem with other banking sites.

  • After updating os to 10.9.1can't open pdf files.  I get a message saying It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise. I can still read older saved files but no new ones arriving by email.  Any help would be appreciated.

    After updating os to OSX 10.9.1 I can't open any new pdf files.  I get a message saying It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognise. I can still read older saved files but no new ones arriving by email.  Also can't attach a pdf to an email to send out.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 - 'Save As' text no longer displaying existing file, which matches the text so far entered

    Photoshop Elements 10  (On Windows 8.1 64-bit laptop)
    Until recently, 'save as' showed any existing file name, which exactly matched the text so far typed. 
    That's particularly useful when creating multiple photo files, with suffixes of '(1)', '(2)', etc.
    Suddenly that great facility has stopped, forcing me to always type the complete file name for each new item.
    I assume that a setting has been lost.
    How do I get it back?

    Thanks again.
    I held the keys down for at least 15 seconds in my previous attempts.  
    I’ve just tried the entries, holding the keys for around 30 seconds, with the same results (or lack of same).
    Thinking about my thought of copying the Preference settings from the same program on my desktop, I looked on the Internet for Photoshop Elements 10 Preferences file locations.   I found a display, which suggested:  C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements (9.0\10.0\11.0)\Editor
    From that, it appears that mine may be held in:
    C:\Users\Fred Niven\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Editor
    But I’m reluctant to copy any such file from my Windows 8.1 desktop’s Photoshop Elements 10’s file(s),
    to replace the equivalent file(s) on this laptop, until I know that I’m replacing the correct file(s). 
    I’d create a System Restore Point beforehand anyway, just-in-case.
    Cheers,

  • I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field(prefix only) while saving files.

    OS: WinXP sp3
    FF: 3.6.3
    I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field (prefix only) while saving files. example: File name is Pic123.jpg and I want to rename it ABC123.jpg and I have ABC loaded into the WinXPsp3 clipboard. When I highlight\right-click\delete "Pic" then attempt to paste the ABC, I get either no reaction, or upon multiple paste attempts, the ABC is appended to the end of the file, after the extension, as "Pic123.jpgABC". If I delete this unwanted suffix, or repeat the process several times, eventually I can delete the unwanted portion of the prefix and paste the desired text. Sometimes it works fine first try, but mostly it takes several tries. I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 but the problem existed in whatever previous version I had too. This issue only occurs when using the delete/paste; I can always manually change the name by typing. Thank you for your help.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Where are these unix executable files coming from and how do I recover the original text file?

    where are these unix executable files coming from and how do I recover the original text file?

    When you upgraded to Lion did you have AppleWorks installed on your mac?
    Most of the AW documents can be opened by Pages 09 or Numbers 09 with most of the orginal format in tact. (I do not know if previouse verision will work) just open the AW file with both and see which one works best.
    Text Edit will also open most of the AW files as well but will require a lot of work to restore them to their orginal format.
    If you have AW Database documents then they are not supported. 
    These document show up as "exec icons", Kind: Unix Executagle File.
    They also will show up as .cwk file if they are small files. I have a couple that were under 1mb that are shown as " Kind: AppleWorks Document" but will not open.
    The only option to open AW database is to have AW installed on a mac with a pre-Lion OS to recover the file.

  • In Max, click Test Panel - Get Executable version (7.1.1) doesn't match resource file (7.1)

    Hi,
    I haven't used LabVIEW for a while.
    I plugged in a USB-6251 and ran Measurment and Automation explorer and saw that the USB-6251 was in the NI-DAQmx Device and was green.
    I clicked on the Test Panels button and got a window with the message:
    Get Executable version (7.1.1) doesn't match resource file (7.1)
    When I clicked OK  MAX was locked up.
    I found this:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/680E61A4D02158A186256F7A0073C228?OpenDocument
    which told me to repair the LabVIEW Runtime thingy.  I did that and it's still broken.
    My MAX version is 4.2.0.3001
    I assume that's a pretty old version but I would have thought it should have been updated when I upgraded to LabVIEW 8.2.1.  But I don't see a MAX folder in the 8.2.1 install.

    I thought I had replied to this but somehow it didn't get there.  In answer to the question about running the device driver CD after installing LV 8.2 I don't know the answer. 
    Anyway I installed LV8.6.1 and now it goes into test panels OK so I should be able to progress.
