SpinRite doesn't do anything that the free tools offered by the disk
manufacturers don't already do.

BTW, Sony recently released a tool for rescuing data from memory sticks,
it's available here:

Attachments pane lost

2006-06-01 Thread Mary Bull
Hello Everyone!

For several days now, the attachments pane has not been showing
for me in the View Folder window.

Instead, there's a small text at the end of the message (below the
sig) to click on in order to view the attachment. This is true both
for text-document attachments and jpegs, gifs, etc.

In the View Folder Window's View menu, I have Attached Files/Hide
(to pane) checked and also Attached Files/Pane on the left checked.
However, if I uncheck this, the unchecking does not stick.

Confirmations that it does not stick in other people's copies of The
Bat! ?

I haven't changed any settings that I can remember, and I can't find a
setting in View, or in Account/Properties, or in
Options/Preferences that will give me the attachments pane back.

Was this a change in v. 3.80.06 and I simply missed noticing it--and
there is no longer an attachments pane in the View Folder window?

Or have I inadvertently changed the setting that includes an
attachments pane?

Note Besides: The MicroEd Edit Mail Message window still displays
the attachments pane for me. Just not the View Folder window where
one reads incoming messages.

TIA for any and all help!

Sorry for prematurely bothering everyone--I've now displayed an old

discern the dividing line between the attachments pane and the message
body. By dragging the line, I got the pane to show again.

Re[2]: Bad crash... HELP!

2006-06-01 Thread Miles Johnson
 It looks like you've done almost everything that you could try.
 Last option with TB is to put the .tbb files in folders. (Forget about
 the .tbi, they'll only cause problems in this kind of situations.) And
 release folder maintenance on these folders.
 Folder maintenance might result in a valid .tbb file with one or more
 part000?.bin files, rename those to messages.tbb (in a safe location)
 and try to import from the renamed .bin file.
No go in both scenarii...

 When this doesn't help try a text editor. Both the .tbb as the .bin
 files are straight text, so with a text editor you might be able to
 retrieve something manually.
No go... The text shows the beginning of the first message's header then
is all garbled. That is NOT cool TB... What a disappointment.

I was able to re-import main inbox messages from a TB copy that was several
weeks old, looks like I'm out of luck for all the recent stuff but thanks
SO MUCH for your help anyway Roelof, it's very much appreciated.

And to those who were kindly trying to help with hard drive issues, that's
not where the problem was. It appears that the removable enclosure for one of
my drives went bad (rare!) which in turn messed up Diskeeper, which is turn
locked up everything... And no, Diskeeper had no business doing that, my
thinking is that its service is running at a way-too-low level on the OS.

We have something that sounds similar to this at our university. You

which many people do on the desktop. Once the computer is shut down

gone. BTW the original setup includes an AV software, and the signature
