  Hello

  If the document has never been saved, there is nothing to recover. The exception is if the Word crashed, in which case there might be a file of ASR left; We should give this file the next time that you start Word.

• I lost a word document in windows 7. How can I recover it?

  I was working on a word document and he lost.  Is it possible that I can recover it?

  If you have ASR on (which I believe is the default), you may have a version of the file.

  In Word 2007 :

  Click the Office button , Options in Word , Save and check if you have ASR on and right below that are the default path where files are saved. If all goes well, you can find something in the file, so you do not lose everything. Microsoft® Security MVP, 2004-2009

• Help! Important Word document lost on disk/memory thumb stick

  In the last month, my brother has created a huge presentation of Word documents on a USB key (I know, should have been on the hard drive).  Now, he can't open all the files on the USB key and many laptops don't recognize it's there.  Is there anyway that the Word could have automatically recorded a version of the document and he can get it back somehow?   Help, please!

• Cannot retrieve saved word document so that in an email

  My daughter has created a word document. We have 2007. She then sent it me for my review.  I made a few changes and sent it to him.  It opens the e-mail message and the attached document.  She has made some additional changes and sent to me for a final review.  She said that when she tried to close out, the system asked her if she wanted to save him, she said yes.  Unfortunately, when she sent him back to me, it is the previous version and not with its recent changes.  I was told by some people that the document must be 'somewhere' but nobody seems to know where it is 'somewhere'.  I tried to look in the temporary folders but can't seem to locate it.  Help, please!

  With AOL, I have no idea where the temporary file might have been placed.  For the future, by saving the document attached to a record, publishing and the recording, then re - install it on a new message will be completely avoid this; you will have the unmodified document still attached to the message and the modified copy saved to a known folder.  Here is an article that can help:

• MIcrosoft Word document opens, has content, but opens blank page

  I am running Word 7 on a Windows Vista-based computer.  I typed a document of 4 pages of search and saved (but not print).  Later, when I "opened", I've got was an empty document.  I tried a lot of things I could think of to fix this, but the best I could do was to open the file in Microsoft Wordpad.  Who produced a document unreadable, but I admit even that was somewhat satisfying!  I gave up after trying a couple of hours.

  It was yesterday.  This morning, I tackled the problem once again, but the computer wouldn't boot.  I ran the routine of repair the computer asked me and got a response that the problem was unknown.  However, the computer did start the next time that I tried and it works perfectly except the Word document.

  I was hoping that somehow this routine of repair had resolved my problem of empty document, but it does not.  Many of hours of research have been lost.  Anyone have any suggestions for me?  (P.S.  I did a full scan and no problems were detected.  Also, I made dozens or even hundreds of Word documents on this computer and never had any problems no matter what.)

  Hello Bob-O-Link,

  If you get a character 'A' then you not select properly. Keep your finger on the "shift" key while pressing the a button.

  The characters you see are ASCII characters and the only thing I can think is that somehow, the document has become corrupted. If the document has become corrupted, and that the "repair" option is not fix it, then there is not a lot you can do about it, unfortunately. As you say other documents you have created are very well, so one can only assume that the file is damaged.

  You could also post your problem in the Microsoft Office Word http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/word forum where you can get more help,

• Try to restore an older version of a word document.

  I accidentally replaced a Word document existing "save under" I would like try to restore a more early saved version of the file.  Is this possible?

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/freeware/system/fwdatarecovery.html (first try Recuva)

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/DiskDigger.html (try this second - if it does not help then the chances of recovery are very slim - but you can try the other options if you want to)

  http://techpaul.WordPress.com/2008/06/23/how-to-recover-your-lost-files/

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

  Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

• HP Envy 5530 not print Word Document correctly / Jam

  I am having several problems with my HP Envy 5530. It says there is no paper in the tray when there's at least 50-75 pages into the tray. Then it will say paper (which is the standard of printing paper) is too short. It will start to print a page then says "Ink drying" and sucks the paper in the printer, causing a traffic jam. This happens several times. Then I fish the paper from the printer and that paper is unusable. I lost a lot of paper on this printer. When I get a word document to print, it does not print correctly. This is a 2 page document and it will print a piece of the first page at the bottom of the page with a gap from the beginning of the second page on top. All on the same sheet of paper. What I don't want at all. It is not at all my first problem with this printer. I am happy to my other question about color printing has been resolved, but it's not good. The scanner lid broke also. I feel like it was a bad purchase and I never had so many problems with my printer until I bought an HP printer. Not a good use of money and I think to return if possible.

  Hi @StudioLily,

  I'm sorry to hear that the printer keeps jamming and you get an 'out of paper' error message when there is a lot of paper in the paper tray. I want to help you.

  I would like to do a hard reset to see if that will solve the problem.

  Let the printer and disconnect the printer cable and the wall socket for 60 seconds.
  Reconnect the power cable to the output of the printer and the wall, and not a surge protector.
  This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

  Try and print a self-test on the printer hardware to see if it is a hardware or software problem.

  Printing a Network Setup Page.

  I submitted this document to the feed rollers check paper, paper for cleaning, (dust and dirt from the air can build up on the rollers, making them smooth, blocking the paper sensor) and check the print drivers to ensure that the paper type and size is set correctly.

  An "Out of paper" message on the control panel and the printer doesn't pick up paper.

  Please provide detailed results if you're still having problems.

  Good day!
  Thank you.

• Icons PDF into a word document

  Hello

  
  We insert the PDFs to our Word documents as icons.  However, when downloading the document to eSign, the ability to open this icon to see the full PDF is lost.  Is this something we can work around?

  Hi bethl64501093 ,

  I wish to inform you that once the document is downloaded in Adobe sign, it is treated as image file. The Word file gets flattened like image and I fear that there is no solution available for this workaround.

  Thank you

• How to generate a Word document and a PDF file of help files?

  Hello

  I'm new to RoboHelp HTML and uses version 8.  I've updated some help files, and now I want to generate the output.  Here are my questions / or the process that I used:

  • To compile the help, I clicked on generate a main page layout.  Is this correct?  I noticed that the stamp on the xpj file has not changed.  The date is still many months.  (Why is this?  Must show a recent update date?)  However, the files that I've updated reflect the dates when I did the updates.  It comes to files art, a high hydrostatic pressure and htm, js, ldb, pss, DPC files.
  • To generate a pdf file, I clicked on Generate PDF.  I was not able to generate the PDF file first, but then I enabled macros in Word 2007 (Trust Center settings > enable all macros.. .and clicked on the checkbox, approved access to the VBA project object model) and you click on Generate the PDF.  At the end of the generation, I got this error in Word: Microsoft Office Word has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.  The news that you were working may be lost.  Word can try to recover it for you.  I closed the Word and dialog box generated several blank documents.  Microsoft Office Diagnostics was performed and found a problem and fixes it.  Despite the error message was generated a pdf file.  (If you could give me any idea on why I got error messages, which could be useful to know).
  • How to generate a Word document?

  Thank you!

  Erin

  Welcome to the forum.

  I would suggest a different workflow.

  When you select generate a main page layout, RoboHelp did this according to the settings in all that is attached to your main layout. Better at least first double-click the page layout so that you see the settings and can make a difference to the way you want. After that, you can use generate a main page layout if you want, but I'd rather go through the layout itself and check the settings.

  The XPJ file changes only when certain things should be recorded in it and it's not every time that you are working on the project. In other words, don't worry about the date of the file.

  Now for the PDF. Again not the best place to start and still better to go of the provision itself. You can try to simply generate a PDF file, but many users prefer to create a Word document and make some changes in that. It can just be put page breaks to improve appearance, it may be more, it's your call. Once the Word document is good, generate the PDF from there.

  You will find the page layouts, that I want to talk in the pod of single Source Layouts. View > pods.

• Half of my Word document disappeared.  How can I find the history of the document so I can revert to a saved version the earlier?

  Half of my Word document disappeared while I was working on it.  I tried to use the back arrow to recover, but Word is closed.  How can I find the history of the document so I can revert to a saved version the earlier?

  I hope that you have a Time Machine backup that you can use to revert to a previous version.  If it is then maybe you shared the document with someone else by e-mail and get get an old copy of your sent e-mail.
