Shp. and TIFF file not fitting in Arcmap 10.4.1

[RolandSzalay]

Hello everyone,

I am so sorry if i ask a potential easy to resolve question.

Recently I wanted to open an old project and continue the map, the shape files imported work well together.

In a separate Arcmap window, the TIFF files also work well, importing I get a “no spatial reference” message which I solve using the define projection tool, where I specify the same as the shapes coordinate sytem.

So with a single coordinate system, importing an Arcmap, the shape and TIFF files do not overlap, even though the shapes used to be drawn from the TIFF maps and I would continue to draw them but this is not possible as they are not fitting on each other.

Some advice what i do wrong?

I previously used WGS_1984_UTM_Zone_35N , i have one shape file wich is overlapping to the tiff and one wich is not, i am attaching few more print screen, i am seeing that in the not overlapping shape using in source for in exemple to top numbers like 5309990,439442 m

and the shape and the tiff what are working togheter corectly  top 47,184879

I attached few print screens

print6.png is in projected coordinates (utm zone)

print7 and print 8 are in decimal degrees (Geographic coordinates, not utm)

So go from there.

Thank you for all, i found the solution!

And i am sorry, i am a rookie in this topic
