Autocad 2014 internal apps not working but work on my 2013 version

[XlhHarley]

Afternoon

I have one machine in my group of 11, that the internal Autocad applications are not working.

Example.. I open the layer dialogue box and right click on the layer name, go to make my layer not appear ina all view ports and "function not found"

Example..  start a new drawing go to paper space, type in MVSETUP... command MVSETUP not found.

I have contacted Tech support and have followed thier advice and - still not working. (even a new install - but not  a fresh one)

If I was a betting man, (or person), I would think it has something to do with this new secuirty crap that was part of 2014..and some minute switch that is turned "off" in my setting,  as when I  re- install 2013 on the same machine it all works with now problem

Has anybody else run into this?

Try the simpler fix of just resetting AutoCAD: it is one out of 11 that otherwise work.

I have reset

I have reinstalled

i have upgraded (after I re -installed 2013).

I have grabbed another users profile from a working machine and imported in to the new machine

It still ends up being works 2013 but not the 2014 software

very confusing

What's unique about your PC compared to others?
Did you use the 'migrate' option before using 2014?

[XlhHarley]

7 of the machines are the same make - model etc..etc..etc

purchased the same time

All are running the same third part applications -

the only difference is this machine is running the design suites premium version autocad and not staright autocad if that makes a difference.

I have discovered that that if I go in and actually run MVSETUP by launching the application it will run until that machine restarts Autocad, I have looked at the file paths and they are pointing to the location of the applications

i need a beer

Are you actually running plain AutoCAD? Or one of the verticals "as AutoCAD"?

[XlhHarley]

Running plain autocad _ I am under the impression that it is just the way it was bundled and sold.. you get more for less

[pendean]

Ha! you wish life was that simple to blame it on 🙂

If you have tried everything else, then I would recommend a clean install of the product. You can find the instructions for that here:
