I had a normal *nb file in Math11 with graphics, calculations, text…but by some uncontrolled click it was broken and now it may be opened only as a simple plain text file with crazy “Mathematica” cells, boxes and so on… Is there any way to recover the file in normal form? How to organize the auto-backup:which would allows to save a backup version of the ".nb file let say each 30min?
It seems to work fine for me (actually I deleted the cache information at the beginning and end of the file). See the attached…
Hi,
To recover the .nb can be done quit easily in this case. How I did it
1. Opened the Basics of Polazation analysis2.txt in a text editor. UltraEdit in my case.
2. Marked the whole lot. Copy, Ctrl-C.
3. Opened MMA 11. New notebook. Paste, Ctrl-V
4. This dialog appears:
5. Naturally, clicked Yes
The result is attached
Great, It works perfect!
Thanks a lot for your help, you saved me many hours of work…
Alexander.
