How to open MDPL file?
An often recurring problem with MacDraw II is that MDPL is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that MDPL files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MDPL file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install MacDraw

Programs to open MDPL file
Remember to download programs supporting MDPL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MacDraw with MDPL files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MDPL file still does not use the MacDraw program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MDPL file with the MacDraw application.
Step 3. Update MacDraw to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the MacDraw program, it is possible that MacDraw II requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Apple, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MDPL file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to MDPL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MDPL file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected MDPL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MDPL file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MDPL files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MDPL files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move MDPL to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MDPL to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
