Xcode showing unknown characters - iphone

Please anybody help me with this,
my xcode project showing this charachters when i restarted my pc, any solutions are welcomed.

It seems that you changed the encoding of the characters to an unknown encoding
To solve it,
make sure that the class.m file is saved in UTF-8 format, to save it to utf-8, open it with any editor (for example textedit) and save it to UTF-8 format
make sure that the encoding in xcode is set to UTF-8, go to preferences->text editing

May be your project is connected with svn or other secure server, and unfortunately your svn stop working and at that time you save your data on svn that's why this was happen. now no way to recover this data but definitely you get that before saved data or backup which was taken by you.

Wrong encoding in Joomla 3

I am using joomla 3 which changes character ' into â€.
Secondly it also converting any space into Â.
I tried using
and
on myhead file but still the problem persist.
My database is with collation of utf8 too.
I am using no editor on my joomla administrator.
Also on my windows operating system it is working fine but when i push files to linux server, it shows these weird sign.
I tried google search alot but in vain.
Any help will be appreciated.
One possible reason is that the files you are pushing to the Linux server have encoding other than UTF-8, they might be Windows-1252.
Here's one suggestion to test if this might be the case.
Create a new text document in Notepad, then Save As, and under Encoding select UTF-8
Upload this test file and check the results. If this still doesn't help, you might want to double check preferences on your SFTP application, just in case it is overriding file encoding.
Good luck!
I had same problem, I deactivate Google ModPagespeed on my Cpanel and my problem has been solved.
Remove "ModPagespeed On" from .htaccess

How to setup Visual Studio Code to detect and set the correct encoding on file open

I recently started to use Visual Studio Code on Server Systems where I did not have Studio IDE installed. I like it very much but I'm running into a problem.
When I open a file (used Notepad++ before) the editor detects the encoding and sets it for me. I have many files on windows servers that are still with windows-1252 but vscode just uses UTF-8 by default.
I know I can reopen with encoding Western (Windows 1252) but I often forget it and I have sometimes destroyed some content while saving it.
So I did not find any parameter yet, is there a way to make vscode detect the encoding and set it automatically when I open a file?
To allow Visual Studio Code to automatically detect the encoding of a file, you can set "files.autoGuessEncoding":true (in the settings.json configuration file).
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/pull/21416
This obviously requires an updated verison of the application compared to when the question was originally asked.
Go to File-> Preferences -> User Settings
Add (or update) the entry "files.encoding": "windows1252" to the right editor window and save
Now VSCode opens all text files using windows-1252 when there is no proper encoding information set.
EDIT:
In 2017's June release the files.autoGuessEncoding setting was introduced. When enabled it will guess the file's encoding as good as possible. Its default value is false .
Add guide by image :
File >> Preferences >> Settings
Enter autoGuessEncoding and make sure checkbox is checked
beware, auto guessing in vscode still does not work as expected, the guessing, is VERY inaccurate, and does still open as guessed encoding, even when the guess library returns also the confidence score being low - they use jschardet (https://www.npmjs.com/package/jschardet)
if the score of guess is not close to 100%, it simply should rather open in "files.encoding" instead of guessed encoding, but that does not happen, vscode authors should make better use of the confidence score jschardet returns
i open either utf-8 which guesses ok, and second encoding i use is windows-1250, which in 99% cases detects wrong as some other windows-... encoding or even iso-8859-... and such... cry daily at the computer having to experience this
tuning up the confidence checking and fallback to default encoding would do, it needs someone skilled to check their source and offer them a fix
From Peminator's answer:
Beware: auto guessing in VSCode still does not work as expected, the guessing, is VERY inaccurate,
This should slightly improve with VSCode 1.67 (Apr. 2022) with (insider released):
Allow to set files.encoding as language specific setting for files on startup
we now detect changes to the editor language and there is almost always a transition from plaintext in the beginning until languages are resolved to a target language
if we detect that the new language has a configured files.encoding override
and that encoding is different from the current encoding
and the editor is not dirty or in save conflict resolution
:
we reopen the file with the configured encoding
Unfortunately I cannot tell apart this from happening vs. the user changing the language from the editor status bar.
So if the user changes language mode to bat from to ps1 and ps1 has a configured encoding, the encoding will change.

Keep file encoding in eclipse for each file (different encodings for different files)

I'm working with a git repository where some of the files are encoded in latin-1 and some of them in utf-8. I'm using Eclipse CDT to work with them, and it's configured to use UTF-8 as default encoding.
The thing is, when I open latin-1 encoded files, some of the characters are not shown properly , and despite I've just tried also the Luna version, which came out 2 days ago, the problem persists (It's supposed that latin-1 and latin-2 are supported now, according to the review information).
Furthermore, and here comes the real trouble, when I modify and save latin-1 encoded files, they are being saved as UTF-8 (as configured in Eclipse), so if I push these changes to the repository, quite a lot of conflicts will emerge, messing up the entire commit.
Is there some way of telling Eclipse to keep the original encoding for each file?
Thank you.

Any method to restore garbled/distorted text file by Matlab?

I got a very weird situation that highly needs your assistance. I appreciate your effort and time in advance.
I have a machine which produces a text file that records some information of the machine's working status such as, the coordinate of the drill head and the rotating speed used at that position. While we examine the text file, it appears to be unreadable because most of the contents are garbled. Please see the attached figure. http://ppt.cc/sA1I
If I open it with UltraEdit I see: http://ppt.cc/TrnV
As you can see some part of the file is readable; however many unrecognizable characters, which should be those numeric values we want.
Two reasons that I believe this problem should be solved by Matlab. First, I am sure this machine has many built-in matlab code inside for analysis purpose. Second, we have a .exe file, which is compiled by Matlab, can restore the garbled text file into arranged and readable format (the values of the coordinates are restored).
We desperately want to see the contents of this file by ourselves. Please kindly provide solution or idea or any direction for me to solve this issue.
Sincerely,
Old question without answer: For the record, a suggestion.
Sounds like a case of Mojibake, a problem with text encoding. Here's how I solved it.
Background: I had text files created on a Mac, others on a Windows, others still on Linux, each in different text encoding. So I got a text editor that would allow me to view the format and to change it. In my case, I used TextMate on MacOS, opened the files, picked the correct encoding upon opening, which sometimes was a Windows format, a Mac format, sometimes a Latin format -- had to use trial and error to figure it out based on a preview this particular piece of software gave me. Once I had the file opened in the correct encoding, I would save it in the utf-8format, which is not platform-specific and allows me to move my text files across various computers.
There may be more scalable methods, but I only had a hundred or so files to deal with, so I opted for the manual method, in order to personally visualize the rendering on screen, and because my files came in different encoding to begin with.

Netbeans 7.0.1 can't read originally good file?

I've been using NB for a long time, with different versions, but today something strange happened, I installed NB7.0.1 and tried to compile some old projects, but it couldn't open one file, saying :"The file cannot be safely opened with encoding GBK. Do you want to continue opening it ?" I pressed on "Yes" and it opened it with errors, lots of empty rectangles in places of the "." characters and some strange Chinese/Japanese characters, this file was a normal, good java file which I've worked on in Nb6.9, NB7.0, never caused any problem, now NB7.0.1 somehow can't open it, so I uninstalled NB7.0.1, and tried to open it with other editors like notepad,wordpad and NB6.9, now the all display strange characters. Seems NB7.0.1 changed it's encoding or the reading of it. Anyone has similar problem, and how to fix it ?
I faced similar issue before.
when I closed and reopened the netbeans the Old project opened normally.
