  • Why are the colors (red mostly) in my Press Quality PDF file darker than Original AI file?

    Hi,
    I am new to CS5 and have been doing a lot of researching and testing saving AI CS5 files in "Press Quality" PDF format.  When I preview the PDF files in MAC's Preview application (will get Acrobat Reader as well) everything looks nice and crisp, but the colors are a bit on the dark side compared to my original AI files, namely the burgundy.  Needless to say, I am only using CMYK and the resolution has been set to High. 
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi again John,
    Now I am sitting in front of the right computer and I just checked the CMYK profile in AI and it says: North America Prepress 2.  I found the following tutorial on the internet and this guy says that it is best to use a CMYK profile called BEST WORKFLOW which is supposed to accurately display colors across all platforms.  In the tutorial, he also added that if you do not see this profile listed then you should Load (directly from the CMYK profile window) it from your computer.  However, I was unable to locate this profile on my MAC and since this tutorial is based on AI CS2, I am unsure if I can use it.

    Which CMYK profile would you recommend that I use?
    Many thanks,

  • Why are all-day calendar events not appearing in the Notification Center?

    I've noticed that all-day Calendar events do not appear in the Notfication Center in iOS. This is a glaring omission and I'm not sure if it's related to a bug or is intentional but it should be fixed right away. Why in the world would you leave out an all-day event from the Notification Center? What if I had a wedding anniversary or some other important event to remember?

    IOS / is no out for a couple of weeks and Apple seems to be reluctant to fix this problem. As a business device it becomes rediculous to be not able to see my calender entries anymore in the notification center. Is Apple now leaving the business arena and focusing on toys ?

  • HT201365 Why are only 3 of my devices appearing on the map when all of the devices were showing up 2 weeks ago.

    Why are only 3 of my devices  appearing on the map when all of the devices were showing up 2 weeks ago.

    I probably "over-read" the Apple website hype about the advantages of creating a single personal Apple I.D. which would apply to practically all things Apple.  To quote:  "An Apple ID lets you personalize your Apple experience. Once you've created an Apple ID, you'll use it to access Apple resources where it's helpful to identify yourself. From Apple Discussions to iTunes to the Apple Online Store and everything in between, Apple ID is your passport to the extended Apple experience."
    Hence, I created an "Apple ID," following the example "[email protected]"  (Who wants to miss out on a "passport to the extended Apple experience.")  However, I already had an ID (though it was not my Apple address), and apparently was already the benefactor of the benefits of the so-called "personal Apple ID."  Consequently, I now have two different iTunes IDs and two different passwords.  Apple has responded to my requests to have a single ID by saying that my request is for the impossible.  I simply have to remember both IDs and both passwords, entering both when attempting to use different computers and devices while downloading and taking inventory of my iTunes files.
    So I'm pretty sure I've followed your suggestions already with respect to all 3 "eligible" devices, but I'll certainly give it another go-round.  From what you say, it appears that being "associated" with the cloud should not limit me only to an iPod Touch 4th generation.

  • Why are all my movies and tv shows now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  How can i get rid of them?

    Why are all my movies and tv shows from my library now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  I have turned off all icloud related services. I have never used it.  On top of that, my ipad now gets stuck on step 5 of the sync - waiting for changes to be applied and never finishes.
    Help

    Hi, go in Settings, under Videos turn off "Show all videos"  this will remove the purchased videos to be displayed in the Video app.  The same can be done with the music.
    As for Step 5, connect you iPad and on the summary Tab, uncheck
    "Sync only checked songs and videos".  Then wait, it takes a while but this made it work for me after many restore attempts.
    good luck

    Hi,
    ( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
    So the menu bar reads iChat, File,  Edit,  View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
    There is no Buddy List open.
    There is no other window for iChat open.
    In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
    Is an item ticked in the list ?
    Is this a green (Available item) or  Red ( an Away one) ?
    Can you access the Accounts option ?  (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
    Is anything in here ticked ?
    In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list  (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
    It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
    If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
    As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option  (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
    Type in:-
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
    Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
    This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.

  • Why are all paths in Clipping Masks and Compound Paths?

    When I open up previous versions of Illustrator files (i.e. CS5), why are all of my paths messed up. Every object is embedded in a Clipping Mask, paths are compounded and in most cases type on a path is expanded into multiple non-editable objects. This causes complete redesign. This is terrible.

    Because Illustrator accessed the PDF part of the file.
    ---> this points to corrupt files.
    How were those files transferred to your computer? Are they on a server?
    How old are they?
    Which versions were they created in?
    Did you already try to restart (the computer)?
    Any plugins installed?

  • Why are albums that have various artists appearing as separate albums for each track?

    why are albums that have various artists appearing as separate albums for each track?

    Check the tags via the info panel on each system.
    You may see that one version has settings for 'Disk x of y' disks.
    There are other fields that should be compared too, like 'grouping'. You also need to be certain the playlist (or the Library) are sorted by the same criteria e.g. by 'album' is different to 'album by artist' etc. That can cause unexpected differences in the way it displays.
    I suspect match has given you iTunes copies of the files with Apple's own metadata whilst your originals are from CD with your custom tags.

  • Why are all urls coming up invalid when I am connected to my wireless network?

    Why are all urls coming up invalid when I am connected to my wireless network?

    First back up the registry
    Go to Start > Run --> type in regedit and hit OK. 
    Navigate to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\LocalSettings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify. 
    Delete the values IconStreams and PastIconsStream. 
    Open up the Task Manager, go to the Processes tab, select explorer.exe and click End
    Process. 
    Open the Applications tab and click New Task at the bottom-right of the window. 
    In the message box that pops up type in explorer.exe and hit OK. 
    Explorer.exe will reload, and the missing icons should now be back in the system-tray
    where they belong.

  • HT5557 Why are all my books that I have purchased no longer in my library?

    Why are all my books that I have purchased no longer in my library?

    The problem is, if I'm in an area that I don't have service or Wi-Fi and I want to read a book that I have purchased and paid for and I can't retrieve it...it is extremely annoying. I have paid A LOT of money for MANY MANY ebooks.  I HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED THE NEW 7.0 SYSTEM BECAUSE I DO NOT LIKE IT. I HAVE IT ON MY IPHONE AND IT HAS TOTALLY SCREWED UP MY CALENDAR AND A FEW OTHER APPS.  I DID NOT WANT THE CHANGES ON THE IPAD TOO.  In other words, I have done nothing different.  My Kindle app is working great and has twice to five times more e-books in it.  The sad part is that iBooks charges more and does not get the new releases out as well and timely as Amazon.  I use Amazon more often now but I do like to keep my series together and for that reason I of still use them occasionally. 

  • Why are all my contacts suddenly 2 hours earlier than they were entered.  I just noticed this today April 24

    Why are all my entries on Icloud 2 hours earlier than they were previously entered.  I just noticed this today April 23?  They do not match what is on my Ipad or on my imac.  Looks like the clocks are not syncronised someplace.

    Your post is fascinating because your post header says "today April 24" while your post body says "today April 23"   So maybe that is related...
    Anyway, make sure all your iCloud devices have Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically = "On".
    Also, in iCloud.com, open Calendar, go to Preferences (upper right) > Advanced > and check "Enable Time Zone Support".

  • Why are all of my contacts duplicated on my iPhone/ipad with iCloud?

    Why are all of my contacts duplicated on my iphone and ipad when using icloud?

    One way this happens is when you previously synced contacts via iTunes/USB cable.  If you haven't turned that off in iTunes, then you'll get duplicates from iTunes and iCloud.
