hi navidd2,
i think the problem is related to the fact that you have to specifically request to print the current variable u are looking for in the odb file.

Hi Barney75
Thanks for respond
I have the same history request for another model and I can see the deformed shape there. How can i ask for a deformed shape animation output? Normally you have the deformed shape animation as a default isn’t it true?
 
Are you outputting your results for all the nodes and elements in your model. You might have defined a particular node set or element set for which only you might be outputing your results.
 
By default the displacements are output for all parts of the model. Of course if you're trying tp plot temperatures, say, as a deformed shape, then you'll get an error.
