Did not Save Edits

After collecting 3 days worth of point data using arcpad with gps correct I was ready to transfer the data to my lap top which uses arc map 10 and GPS analyst. Using the get data from arcpad button from the GPS analyst tool bar I successively loaded the point data and the ssf files. I was hoping to post process the data on a faster computer, and in closing my map document I accidentally did not save the edits. I tried redoing the process but the get data from acrpad wizard keeps informing me that there are no updates to add. (which seems like the consequence of not saving). I tried to use the regulour get data from arc pad tool in hopes of atleast getting the point data minus the ssf files but I had the same result.

When I open up the map document in arc pad on the device or on my desktop the points are all still on the map. My question is- is there anyway to transfer the data into arcmap. It would be amazing to save the ssf files but even the points themselves would be quite helpful.

Hi Barry,

You might be able to recover the edits by performing what we can a fake checkout. Here is link to knowledge base article that will walk you through the steps, http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/35524. If this doesn't work for you, please feel free to contact Esri Support and submit a Support incident so you can work with an ArcPad specialist familiar with the GPScorrect and GPS Analyst workflows to help you troubleshoot this further.
