Error when saving a file with whatever text

Suddenly when I am going to save a file wich has text, unknow error ocurs and can not save the file, if I delete the text, the file saves fine, no matter what text or font I choose. It is weird. The app was working fine a few days ago.
I have 3 users and the same for all....
I already deleted the AI preferences but the problem persists
Ai CS3
Windows Xp
2gb Ram
Any Ideas?

Thanks all for responses, No, none font added recently, however, I went to C/Windows/Fonts and moved almost any font there to a a folder at the desktop. I know there are some fonts needed by the system and by the app, the problem is to know which exactly they are...
The trick didnt' work, even I reinstalled the app, but notthig works..
My daugther tells me that the problem begun when she opened an Illustrator file someone sent her by email....so, may be a virus

Web browser for running locally saved html file with Marquee Text

I have a html file contain Marquee text.
I want to display that html file in oracle forms(10g).
I already use simple html browser but it does not support marquee text.
I already tried to convert the html file into Gif file but Marquee text not appear in gif file.
Is there any browser which support the locally saved html file with marquee text and also it can be embedded in oracle form.
Or is there any way for display that html file within the oracle forms.
Remember I don't want to display that file in separate window.I want to display that html file within the form.

Actually that is what I was doing last night and got a bad flash and bricked my router..so its on its way back to Linksys...

Weird CS4 error when saving eps files on a Mac: "...specified files already exist in the target location"

Hi There,
All 3 workstations in our studio are experiencing weird file behavior when re-saving eps files from Illustrator.
Basically Illustrator creates a new file in addition to the original and adds a "-01.eps" onto the file name. If you re-save your original, Illustrator brings up a dialogue box that states:
Some of the specified files already exist in the target location. The files marked below will be replaced:
filename.eps
filename-01.eps
We've been deleting the "-01.eps" files each time but it's becoming tedious. The behaviour occurs when re-saving an eps file to a server or the desktop.
All machines are new Quad-core MacPros running:
- Leopard 10.5.8
- Illustrator CS4 14.0.0
We've checked for Illustrator updates from within Illustrator but we seem to be running the latest version.
Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?
Any help or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks for the reply.
The error occurs when we save the document but if we choose save as, "Use Artboards" seems to be unchecked so not sure if this issue is related or not. Will re-save the document using save as then see if the issue persists.
Why do we still use eps?
Basically because we've found it to be much more compatible. Our entire logo library is in eps format (18 years worth) partly because it was previously the only format to use and partly because it allows account managers to send logos to clients, printers, TV stations etc and not involve the studio (saving out an eps version).
Although "Create PDF compatible file" is a good idea, we've encountered costly issues with colours and images - especially if the recipient is using old CS software, non-Adobe software or is using some kind of hardware RIP. We now just go with what we know works.
But I do find saving eps versions of everything to be a bit painful. In fact, I've always found Illustrator in general to be a bit painful when compared with Photoshop or AfterEffects. Illustrator seems like it's been developed by a different company some times!
Cheers, and thanks for the help.

Error when saving audio file

I am having an issue when trying to save an audio file. Looking for some help on what might be causing the problem. With the audio file highlighted, I select Save As and title the file. When I hit OK, this error comes up..The file is in use by another application and cannot be overwritten. I am saving the file name as something new so it is not trying to overwrite a file with the same name. Also there is not another Audition opened in the background or any other programs that could cause "another application" error. Thanks for your help.

Thank you for the reply. Here is what I determined. Sorry I couldn't answer all your questions. I'm don't know everything about computers and networks, just enough to be dangerous.
File length doesn't make a difference (try save a file of only a few samples) I tried record length of a few seconds to five minutes and it happens on all different file lengths.
You have not had this issue with Adobe Audition 2.0 and Cool Edit Professional 2000, it has never worked in Audition CS5.5 We have one computer that has Audition 2.0 and have no problems with that. Previously used CoolEdit and no problems with that either.
You can save the file to the local workstation drive and then copy it using Windows Explorer to the network share with no issues. Saving to the local computers hard drive works everytime and then I am able to copy that file to the desired network drive.
You are using Windows Storage Server 2003 in a Raid 10 array for your storage server. Sorry do not know
Active Directory and the workstations have the proper permissions to read and write to the network shares. Yes
The workstations running Adobe Audition CS5.5 are running Windows 7 Profession 32bit and have Active Directory Login. Yes. They are Windows 7 32 bit. Not sure about Active Directory Login
You are able to save to the local drive and copy the file to the same network share via Windows Explorer. Yes
Toggling the saving of Metadata and Markers doesn't make a difference. Sorry do not know
You are able to save as other formats (try AIFF, MP3, and a SESX session). Able to save MP3's to the notwork drive. only .wav are having issues
Running Audition as Administrator makes no difference. No difference
Running Audition in XP compatibility mode makes no difference. Tried that and still had same issues
Turning off the writing of .pkf files doesn't make a difference. Sorry not sure how to do that
I hope this helps and I apologize for not being able to answer all your questions.
Best regards

Internal error when saving Frame file

I recently got the following message when trying to save some files on the network:
"An internal error occurred while writing imported graphics in this document. The file has been saved, but has lost some image data. Please report this error to Adobe Technical Support."
I had never seen this error before. When I try to update the book, I get the following error:
"Cannot save one or more files in the book. Open each file on the desktop. Check the permissions of the file on the disk, and then save the file manually."
This was never a problem before--this occurred all of a sudden. I checked the permissions and it hasn't changed. When I work on the book files locally, I can save the files just fine. I only get the errors when the files are on the network.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Michelle

Michelle,
Some setting in your network configuration is messing with FM. If it
works locally, then bring your files down to your local drive, do your
work, and then re-upload them to the network outside of FM.
FM and networks don't always get along. If you're using UNC naming for
the network path, try to create a network drive instead.

Illustrator CC 2014- Unknown error when saving as PDF with Printer's Marks

I've been getting an error message (bellow) when I save a ANY of my AI file as PDF with Printer Marls (Trim Marks etc).
All fail attempts were files with: No transparencies - No effects - Simple Type (tried outlined and live) - Simple shapes.
I tried:
- Trash the Adobe Illustrator Settings folder
- Reboot the application
- Reboot computer
- Rebuild file
- Replace fonts
Please help. I'm a print designer and that's vital for my line of work.

Without system information and details like what PDF preset you use nobody can even begin to guess.

Illustrator hangs when saving .ai files with linked or embedded images

Hi,
Currently I have a huge problem with Adobe Illustrator. When I place an image file inside an Illustrator document, the program freezes for about 45 seconds when saving. In the beginning I though it was just because my image file was too big, but that wasn't the case.
To test what's going on I created a new document, drew a few lines and saved. No problem, Illustrator saved immediately. Then I placed a bigger image and suddenly Illustrator hang when saving. I repeated this with a very small GIF of just a few kB and again, Illustrator hang for nearly a minute when saving the image. I tried embedding the image instead of linking it, but I still got the same results.
Then I turned of the visibility of the image object by clicking on the little eye symbol in front of the image object and suddenly Illustrator was able to save quickly again. The next thing I wanted to try was turning off compression and PDF compatibility, but then I noticed that Illustrator is actually hanging BEFORE writing the file to disk. When I hit "Save as" Illustrator asked me where to save the new file and then after clicking "Save" it hang (showing "(Not Responding)" in the title bar). About 45 seconds later the save options dialog came up and when I clicked "OK" it saved the file immediately.
Does anybody know what the problem might be? I'm using Illustrator CS5 on Windows 7 x64. The computer is a notebook with 8GB RAM and a switchable graphics card. I tried this on both the integrated Intel graphics unit and on the much more powerful AMD chip. The hard driver I'm saving to is the local hard drive (no network drive etc.).
This is a more or less fresh installation (I haven't used Illustrator before on this notebook) and I can't remember that I had the same problem on my workstation where I used it inside a virtual machine (which doesn't exist anymore).

Yeah, I know that changing the mode results in different colors. I just switched back and forth to check out what's going on.
For CMYK I'm using ECI profiles which are common in Europe and for RGB the normal Adobe RGB 1998 profile. The profiles are synced between all Creative Suite products. I tried sRGB and some of the default profiles which shipped with CS5 but it produces the same result. I also deleted my whole Illustrator profile but without success.
My graphics card doesn't have any updates. But it would be very unlikely anyway that both drivers for both cards had the same issue. If it has something to do with my graphics cards it's more likely the switchable graphics in general.

I am using the sysdeo Eclipse Tomcat plugin (V3.0) that allows me to create a war file from my eclipse project. In that war file is a .cvsignore file at the top level. Apparently, that cause the war expansion to fail with the following message. Any idea why it failed when encountering .cvsignore?

What is causing a disk error when saving psd files or writing to cache?

The problem only happens when running Photoshop CC (2104) and Bridge (actually these are the only two programs I really use my external drive for) during a save or write operation to an external hard drive. I can work for hours, with multiple files open, saving, creating, etc. without a problem and then suddenly I'll get a message from Photoshop saying, "Could not save .... because of a disk error." or from Bridge saying, ".. unable to write to cache..".
When I quit and try to troubleshoot the problem, I find that, for some reason, Mavericks has put system files on my external (non boot) drive or, for whatever reason, thinks there is a system file on it. Consequently, the drive cannot be ejected (Error message: "... one or more programs may be using it...") and I cannot repair it using Disk Utility (Error message: " ... live file system repair is not supported"). I also cannot write to it (Error message: "... unexpected disk error has occurred (error code: -50)"). The problem persists even after quitting all other programs, which wouldn't surprise me if Mavericks thinks there is a system file on it.
I have force ejected the drive a couple of times but became concerned that I might be compounding the problem. Now I just restart my computer and run Disk Utility Repair Disk. (Don't know which is worse.) Disk Utility either doesn't find a problem or, if it finds one, it repairs it. After that, Photoshop and Bridge work fine for a while.
System information:
MacBook Pro 13" 2.4GHz with 16GB RAM, 500 GB HD (recently upgraded)
Apple Cinema Display
Mavericks (up to date)
G-Technology G-Drive (Gen 5) 2TB HD connected via Firewire 800 (latest firmware)
Unconfirmed observation: I believe the first few times this problem occurred, Firefox was up an running. I made a point of quitting all programs except System Monitor when running Photoshop and Bridge and I can't remember having the problem again. The the last time the issue occurred, today, however, Safari was up and running.
Is this an OS problem, a hardware (disk drive, cable, etc.) problem, a software problem (PS, Bridge) or some combination? I have put this much detail in the post hoping someone can share some insight into the cause. I will be sending this report to Apple and G-Technology and I will report any resolution, if and, hopefully when, I find one.

The only thing that will cause a disk error is an actual error from the disk.
Photoshop is just telling you what that OS told it about the error.
It sounds like you need to boot off another disk and try to repair your disk.
Also, make sure you have a backup. And check the SMART status to see if it is failing and needs to be replaced.

Error when opening XLSX file with Excel 2003 SP3, file does open but in read only mode with temporary name

I am using Excel 2003 SP3 and have the Office 2007 compatibility pack installed. When I open Office 2007 formatted Excel files (XSLX) directly in Windows Explorer, I receive the following error if I do not have Excel already opened:
"Windows cannot find '<path to file>'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search."
Even though I receive the error, the file does open; however, it opens in Read Only mode with a name such as "Xl0000024.xls". The number seems to increment up each time it happens.
Now here is the strange part. If I have Excel already open and try to open the file in Windows Explorer, the file opens fine in Modify mode with no error and with the correct file name.
I Googled the error I was getting and found KB211494. It says I should uncheck the box in Options on the General tab that says "Ignore other applications", but this box is already unchecked in my case. Any other ideas? This is
really frustrating as a small percentage of our company has upgraded to Office 2007 with the rest still on Office 2003.

This may be a file association problem. To solve that:
In Windows 7:
1. Right-click the file,
2. Select "Open With"
select [Your Program Here]
3. Check always use this program.
In Windows XP:
1. Locate the file as you have described above
2. Right click the file
3. Select Open with from the pop-up menu
4. Click Choose default program…
5. Select Excel in the Recommended Programs box
6. Check Always use the selected program to open this kind of file
7. Click on OK.
1. Make Excel not available from Office 2007 listed under Programs and Features in Control Panel.
2. Take a registry backup using the steps given here
3. In the registry editor window expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and navigate to .xls right and delete it.
4. Exit Registry Editor
5. Undo Step 1 to make Excel available.
6. Restart the computer and verify it the issue is fixed.

SharePoint Bug? Conflict Error when saving a Page with a "Required" DateTime field in the page layout

Hello,
I've just recently encountered a weird error / bug in SharePoint. Here is the scenario:
- I have a custom column "Test Date" that is of DateTime field type. The field is configured as REQUIRED.
- It is added to a custom Content Type "Test CT" that is based on a "Publishing Page" content type
- I have created a Page Layout "Test PL" which is based on that particular content type.
Now here is what happens:
1. I try to create a page based on both that Content Type and Page Layout in the Pages Library. I manage to create it successfully.
2. However, when I go to try and edit the page, fill-in the required values and try to save it using the PAGE TAB -> SAVE BUTTON, I get the below error/s. Note that this happens no matter what I choose in the drop-down menu for Save Button.
"The file XXX has been modified by USER on DATE"
But I know I am the ONLY user modifying the page.
If I try to save again it gives me options to whether Discard my Changes, Keep Editing, Overwrite Changes, or Merge.
3. HOWEVER, if I use the Save button on the UPPER RIGHT corner of the screen (the shortcut). I am able to save successfully without any errors!
The only thing I've tried that made it work was if I made the DateTime OPTIONAL. But I need it to be REQUIRED.
Is there any workaround to this error / bug?
Thanks

I have some additional info but nothing really good.
If you click the Save in the left side of the Ribbon then it looks like that is when you get the message. If you click the Save in the top right corner you won't get the message. They must be calling different saving functions.
There really is no way around it other than making the field optional which probably removes some server side validation checks causing that message.
We've chosen to remove that field from the page as I needed it required, then they can't publish the page until they go to the properties and set the article date. By removing the field from the page layout the message goes away.
I hope MS will fix this at some point.

Why "not enough memory" error when saving edited files?

I've been editing photos from one folder and saving them to another, hundreds of them. Suddenly when I tried to open Photoshop Elements 9 from the raw editor I got an error that says "could not complete the command because there is not enough memory." I have noticed that when I go back and open a photo from the first file that I've already edited, the changes are applied to that file, even though I saved the edited file into the second folder. What can I do? I don't really want the photos in the first folder edited, just the ones in the second, and I don't need to store all my changes in memory. I still have hundreds to edit.

Is there a simple way to get back to my original RAW files in folder 1, without the edits that have been made applied to them?
The simplest way is to change your mindset, and say ... hey, no problem, that's the way the PSE RAW editor works, I will leave things as they are.
What could be simpler, you basically have to do nothing?
(And by the way, I say again that your original RAWs have NOT been changed in any way).

File locked message when saving a file with Photoshop

We've been seeing a problem with several users that is hard to reproduce. Every once in a while when they try to save a file in Photoshop on the server they get a dialogue saying 'the file is locked, use Finder info to unlock the file'.
This file is located on the server and the problem only happens when doing a 'Save', not with a 'Save as'. The server is running 10.5.5 and the clients are 10.4.11. This is happening with Photoshop versions CS1, 2 and 3. It also happend with Illustrator CS3 once.
We've been experimenting with different scenario's using different ACL's and POSIX settings. Also, when the client reboots their machine the exact same 'Save' actions works again.

I've been receiving complaints about a similar issue over the past few weeks, except using Quark and Excel. I wonder if it's related to the 10.5.5 update. Are you sure you didn't get the version numbers reversed in your post? We're having the issue with 10.4.11 SERVER and 10.5.5. CLIENTS.
It's a file locking issue, so you probably won't fix it by changing the ACLs or POSIX permissions. The server thinks a different process still has the file open, so it's preventing you from changing the file. "Save As" works because it creates a new file.
You can probably eject & reconnect the volume from the client instead of fully rebooting.
The question is what's keeping the file open. You can run:
sudo lsof | grep <filename>
... in Terminal to see whether a given Mac has the file open. If the server comes back with a response to that command (don't worry what it says - you just want to see if anything comes back), then you know that the file is locked.
Next, go to each client that could have the file open and run the same command. If none of them have it open, you're probably looking at the same glitch that I've been. The server thinks a file is open but none of the clients do.
