Unable to open .acd-zip files on 2 new discs - Works fine on 12 other loop libraries -ACID Product Family

Subject:Unable to open .acd-zip files on 2 new discs - Works fine on 12 other loop libraries Posted by: jmeredith Date:11/15/2004 8:09:56 PM Just inserted the Bradley Fish Restrung disc and attempted to open any of the Sample Acid Projects included on the disc. Below is an example of the error message I received while trying to open the 7 different project files. An error occurred while loading the project file Afro Dulce.acd The file is most likely corrupted or of an unknown format. A chunk has an illegal length. At first I thought the file names were messed up i.e., Afro Dulce.acd-zip should have been Afro Dulce.acd.zip I changed the file name and it turned into a ZIP file that I was able to open an extract all files contained within. However, when opening the ACD file from within the ZIP (which is correctly named) - I still get the same error message as above. Has anyone else had this problem? Did I get a bum disc? Any thoughts??? Thank you in advance EDIT - Having the exact same problem with the Demo Song on Mellow Jazz/Funk Elements disc. I tried 12 of my other discs and ALL of the .acd-zip files opened like a charm which leads me to believe that it is more disc related

Subject:Installed Acid Pro 5.0 - Now files open Reply by: jmeredith Date:11/15/2004 10:27:49 PM Just got my Acid Pro 5.0 in the mail - installed and now the files are opening just fine (Funny how only these 2 discs had a problem in Acid Pro 3.0g even though all my other discs worked) but it's all good now.
