1. Went on a trip with my laptop and a copy of my site on a CD. 2. I copied the files onto my harddrive - thank heavens!! 3. Worked on site with the CD version. Dreamweaver MX 2004 crashed and totally stripped the CD of everything except some autorun feature. (Windows XP Home - SONY VAIO laptop) 4. Copied backup copy from harddrive back to a new CD and found that there were at least 10 folders (for photogalleries) missing. They never got copied from the move to the harddrive in the first place. 5. Ran thru the procedure again (found the missing folders on an earlier CD backup)... putting the missing files on the CD in step 4. 6. Spent a lot of time updating my personal site and the copied all this work from that CD back to the harddrive. 7. The same folders and files are missing again. They never made the move!!! Any explanation??? I sure am glad I had backed up to my harddrive and also that I had an old backup copy with me. TIA, Eleanor |

I have no idea, of course... but it happened. Probably it was a problem with the CD drive in the laptop!

That's exactly what the drive is. Most of the files are transferring just fine. There are only about 6 that don't get copied properly.

Not sure what happened to your first CD, but I would suggest trying to rescue the data from that one rather than using your old CD... Just a hunch but it sounds to me like you have two things happening here, in any case I would use this utility http://www.smart-projects.net/isobuster/ on the first CD (the one that went fubar on the trip). If it restores the data I would back it up on another CD for good measure. Hey there, do you know of any similar programmes for floppy discs? Sorry to go OT here folks, but I've been looking for one for months!! Couldn't |
