Corrupt flipchart file. Any suggestions?

[swarohi]

Hello Promethean experts!

 

One of our teachers has tried to open a flipchart this morning that she had created over the weekend. However, it seems to crash activinspire everytime it opens. This is happening on multiple computers with multiple versions of activinspire. A google search indicates that the file has probably been corrupted and is probably beyond recovery but I did not want to give up so quickly.

 

If I open ActivInspire after it is forced to shutdown, it displays a message asking if I want to recover that file. Trying to recover still crashes the program but I can see it appear briefly so the data is still there.

 

Many thanks!

Hi

 

Generally, once they are corrupt they are not recoverable. You may find that some of the content (images etc) may be found in the Temp folder after you have tried to open the flipchart but even that does not always work.

we used to find that they corrupted when uploaded via Rav3 (Atomwide Remote Access) - never really got to the bottom of it either.
