Re: unexplicable problem with ELAN 3.9 for Windows
Difficult to explain and/or reproduce all the problems described, but here are some general hints and suggestions:
- .pfsx files are preferences files used by ELAN to store some user settings and preferences. These files can not be opened as if they were annotation files.
- if automatic backup is used, files will be generated with an extension of the form .eaf.001. After removing the .001 (or .002 etc) part these files can be opened like any other eaf file.
- if there are no tiers after opening a file, they might just be hidden in the main view (as a result of a bug or hidden accidentally). It is always good to check in e.g. the Grid view if the tiers are really gone.
I'm not aware of problems in general with saving on a flash drive or on any other type of drive. Only when for one or more tiers the "Default Language" has been set to None, there is a problem as reported here
(http://www.lat-mpi.eu/tools/elan/elanforum/simpleforumpost.2010-07-29.8196847341).
This will be fixed in the next version of ELAN.
