The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Hi,

We recently started to experience problems when working with CS3 files off our fileserver.
Multi-layered files and large files intermittently become corrupted and rendered useless.
When trying to open a corrupted file the following error message comes up:

"This document has been damaged by a disk error. The most likely causes of this error are: a defective disk drive, a defective disk drive cable, or incorrect peripheral cable termination. Some of the pixels in this document may be invalid. Open anyway?"

We have around 10 Macs (10.5.3) connected to an X-Serve running 10.2.8 and we are intermittently seeing this issue on all of them.

The File server has been used for years without any problems. We recently replaced G5s (Panther) with MacPros (Leopard).
The MacPros has worked fine for a few months with the CS3 files on the file server.

We haven't had any problems when the files are stored on the computer's local HD.

I know that Adobe recommends that CS3 files are accessed locally.

The issue is also reported on AppleInsider:

We have run diagnostics on the server. The hardware seems to be ok.

Best Regards
Mattias
