Angry Illustrator Images Links

my HD crashed..I could recover the files, but on a specific Illustrator file, when I open It I am asked to locate all the linked images. The problem is that the name of the images requested does not match with the list of images I imported into this file. Just the beginning of the name file matches, and there's no way I can find the right imported image, since I have a lot of images that look alike.
•Image name into the original folder:
MAPS_low_satel_Page_02_Image_0002.tiff
•Image name that I'm asked for in the Illustrator link:
MAPS_low_satel_Pa#5774D7.tiff

How do I figure this out???!!

Your image names were too long on import, that's why they were truncated. You might be hosed if only the number after 'Image' is different.

You could try viewing all your images in Preview and then relink to your Illustrator file. Then you'll need to reevaluate your naming convention...

There's a great Illustrator collect program called Art Files. You should check it out: http://www.code-line.com/software/artfiles.html
