CADMASTER1128 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Have you thought about asking your IT? My guess is you may need to run a repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankman Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Are trying to load a workspace? Or migrate settings from a different AutoCAD? Sure sounds like a migrate settings transfer. This might generate another query, "Is is possible to carry a profile around on a thumb drive?" Would make life easier while moving from PC to PC, PC to laptop, laptop to PC.

CADMASTER1128 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Sure sounds like a migrate settings transfer. I agree, but how would you fix that? Thats why I suggest a repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankman Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I agree, but how would you fix that? Thats why I suggest a repair. I too agree with a repair. Any input on the thumb drive carrying profiles? Sounds easy enough but, never tried it. Sure would make movin' about much simpler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADMASTER1128 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 When you save a workspce, does it save an actual file or does AutoCAD save it in computers registry. However, if this is possible, I wanna learn cause I am tired of setting up my computer everyday at school. I have a workspace at school, But I prefer to have the one at school. For some reason I am unable to get the 2 profiles the same :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Car5858 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Go to options > Profile > export (save as and change the file extension) Help file: Profile information is typically set on the Files tab of the Options dialog box, stored in the system registry, and can be exported to a text file (an ARG file).

CADMASTER1128 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 WAIT!!!! So you are telling me that, my workspace can be exported and loaded on another computer? How do I upload/install this workspace to another machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car5858 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Pretty cool when you have it on a flash drive. Like taking your desktop with you. Also save it in My documnets and it will become part of the computer back up every week.:wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car5858 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 You can also save your block lib to the flash drive and have all your blocks with you also. Just remember to referance the flash drive blocks for your profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADMASTER1128 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I don't need to do that... both computers I use have the same blocks loaded. Thats the Power of Autodesk Symbols 2000, as Billy Mays would say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
