Can't use brush when editing pdf

When I try to edit a pdf file, using a brush, I only get the international no symbol.
If I open a new file the brush works fine. What do I need to change in the pdf to allow the brush to be used?
The other tools all work fine.
I have tried flatening the file, changing color mode, adding a layer

Yes, I know this. But what is curious to me is that since this file was imported so to speak, why is the natural default  non-existant. Unlike an ai file that has been edited. It is in effect a new file. Seems wierd. In other words there is no natrual default for the brush like there is for the pen or pencil?
I think this is a glitch, because it does not compute.
When you open a new file in ai and delete all the brushes, it will not let you delete the last one which is called 50pt flat. This makes sense it would seem that this is the natural default, that i am expecting to see in my imported "new" file.
So, where did it go?

  • When I use Preview my computer locks up. Can't use it to view PDFs. Any ideas?

    When I use Preview my computer locks up. Can't use it to view PDFs. Any ideas?
    I try to save files as a PDF on external hard drives. When I select SAVE AS PDF I get spinning colorwheel and the program I am using locks (Quicken, Quickbooks, Gmail etc.)

    There were several /Library/preferences. The only one that had the file was the one under my user name. I deleted it. I was using Quickbooks when the problem started. It is locked. I have to reboot the computer to use it again. I tried SAFARI using the PRINT button then SAVE AS PDF. It didn't work. It locks Safari up. I will reboot and hopefully continue.
    P.S. I've done this procedure before and I was able to Save, but then the problem came back.

  • I can't see how to edit PDF inside Portfolio for Acrobat X. In Acrobat 9 Pro

    I can't see how to edit PDF inside Portfolio for Acrobat X. I can do this in Acrobat 9 Pro with the Document pull down menu. Did they take this away in Acrobat X?

    Whether it's maxed or not doesn't make any difference.
    The bottom part of the image/scroll bar is always under the Windows taskbar any time the URL is opened.
    It is always fixed by doing something, either switching to and back from another window, or turning on and off one or more toolbars.
    That shouldn't be necessary. The bottom part should be visible when the URL is opened.

  • How can I use Elements as Edit in using a Lightroom?

    How can I use Elements as Edit in in Lightroom using a Lightroom picture. I followed instructions: Photo/Add in/ and received in Elements a blanco screen instead of the picture selected in Lightroom. Please further instructions before ordering Elements 11.

    Dear Andaleeb,
    I have followed instructions as follows: In Lightroom I have installed Elements under extra plug inns. (on top of the screen reference is made  to Photoshop and not Photoshop 11). Under photo, cmd-e does not work since Photoshop is colored gray. As I have Elements installed under extra plug-inns this is highlighted. BUT………..Clicking that, the picture selected does NOT appear in Elements. The screen remains being empty! How can I solve this?

  • I can't use Photobooth - when I open the app, I get the message: "Photo Booth couldn't save your photos - Photo Both encountered an error when trying to save your photos. You photos cannot be saved at this time."

    I can't use Photobooth - when I open the app, I get the message: "Photo Booth couldn't save your photos - Photo Both encountered an error when trying to save your photos. You photos cannot be saved at this time."

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box markedAllow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use  another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • "you can't use Icloud when multiple versions of outlook is installed. As far as i know I only have 1 version installed. Any ideas

    I have recently loaded Icloud and received the following message
    "You can't use ICloud when multiple versions of Outlook are installed. To use ICloud with outlook uninstall one version" As far as I am aware I only have one version. Is there anyone who had a similar issue and if you did what is the solution?

    You're probably on OS X Lion?
    I had the same problem as you. I used Software Update to update Logic Express to the latest version, and then it ran without any problems.

  • You can't use Contribute to edit this type of file

    I've updated a few pages from a website, so they're just
    variations of pages that used to work with Contribute. Now I'm
    getting a message--on some of them--that "you can't used Contribute
    to edit this type of file." These are html files with the extension
    htm. They contain tables. They are based on templates. They don't
    seem to have any other distinguishing properties. Exactly what kind
    of files don't work? What might I be doing wrong? I teach this at a
    college & my students are as puzzled as I am.

    Ancient thread, but if anyone else is googling this phrase I thought I might respond with a possible answer.  I encountered the same error but could not find anything wrong with the page in question.  Turned out the page getting the error message was fine! The issue was actually with a simple typo on the page that linked to that page--it was missing the extension (e.g., linking to "page2" instead of "page2.php".  The web server (and Contribute's browser) were pulling up the page even though the extension was missing but Contribute didn't know what kind of file it was so it refused to allow editing.

  • HT1349 How do I find where my multiple copies of Outlook are? (It said  Multiple Outlook versions installed. You can't use iCloud when multiple versions of Outlook are installed.  To use iCloud with outlook, uninstall one version.")

    I have just started with iCloud, and run into a problem from my PC.
    It says: "

    You can't use iCloud when multiple versions of Outlook are

    I have searched and found two versions of Outlook 2013 and 2015  (one of which was inactive, but I have removed it), and one of outlook.pst, which I have removed.
