Roamdrive by ipab on 06-06-2008 at 08:26 PM
I need some serious help here, a while back I used a program called Roamdrive to save something to gmail. I haven't used the program for a while and now it just stopped working with it. I desperately need it to retrieve the rar file as it has some pics I managed to lose when my HDD got corrupted recently. I can manually retrieve the files but I cannot piece them back together. I was wondering if anyone here has any idea as to how I can do it. The file is broken up into about 30 pieces.
On a side note, the program still works perfectly with windows live, as long as the email ends with either @msn.com or @hotmail.com. I believe it uses the same way that it is stored in gmail to split the attachments.
Here is an attachment to give you guys an idea of what it looks like.

if all things fail and if the files aren't encrypted or compressed or anything (just split up) you could do it in good old DOS:
copy filepart1.ext /B + filepart2.ext /B + filepart3.ext /B [etc...] fileresult.ext /B
or you could repeat it a few times if you run out of command line space:
copy filepart1.ext /B + filepart2.ext /B filetemp1.ext /B
copy filetemp1.ext /B + filepart3.ext /B filetemp2.ext /B
copy filetemp2.ext /B + filepart4.ext /B filetemp1.ext /B
copy filetemp1.ext /B + filepart5.ext /B filetemp2.ext /B
copy filetemp2.ext /B + filepart6.ext /B filetemp1.ext /B
...
copy filetemp1.ext /B + filepart30.ext /B fileresult.ext /B
del filetemp1.ext
del filetemp2.ext
-------------
Not very convenient, but for a one time merge it works nicely and you don't need to download and install any program. And when you make it in a batch file, you'll be able to type everything out very quickly (since you can easly copy/paste in notepad) in less than half a minute.

No, I have the updated gmail plugin. I can post the error that it generates if anyone would like to see. I'll do it in about an hour or so.

Cookie, I never really did what you suggested, and I finally took the time to do it today and it worked. I realize this is a really old thread, but thank you for the advice. Simple binary file merge did the trick and I have my old pictures back and lots of space back in my gmail account and no longer any annoying "Drafts" that should shouldn't be there.
So once, again, a big thank you
P.S. I am posting this instead of PM-ing you since there might be others with my issue and hopefully the spiders will pick this up.

and if you have python installed you could use this:
Python code:import os
partname=raw_input("part name: ")
x=int(raw_input("number of parts: "))
ext=raw_input("extention of part series: ")
c='+'.join([' %s%s.%s /B '%(partname,i+1,ext) for i in xrange(x)])
fileresult=raw_input("result file with extention: ")
c="copy"+c+fileresult+" /B"
os.system(c)

create a new hotmail/msn account, send all of that stuff there, and open it with the program?
