Why won't colour swatches I create stay in the colour swatch palette?

Whenever I create a new colour in the colour swatches it only stays there for a couple of actions while working on a project.  I understand from others that once they create a colour it stays there.  Why can't I get that to happen?

Make sure you save each swatch or swatch combination as an ACO file. Use the dropdown menu near the top right of the swatches panel.
You can then load named swatches, or replace the default swatch with a named swatch - using the sme dropdown menu.
You can also download swatches designed by others from the Kuler website.

  • Why won't my credit card info stay in the system?

    I have put in all of the info off my credit card multiple times and then when I go to buy a game it says I need to visit apple/iTunes support. When I go to make sure all the credit card info is correct it hasn't saved my security code on the back of my card. I have tried multiple cards so it's not a problem with my card. What do I do?

    Yes it can make a big difference if you're trying to edit a US address on a Canadian iTunes Store...

  • Why won't my FireWire HD partitions stay mounted on my desktop?

    Why won't my FireWire HD partitions stay mounted on my desktop? I recenly purchased a quad interface 500GB external HD from OWC (which is connected via FW800). I then partitioned it for TIME MACHINE, some room for a backup of my primary HD, and partitions for boot disks for LION, SNOW LEOPARD, & TIGER. All partitions seem to be OK as well as the backup I made of my primary HD (using SuperDuper). My Energy Saver prefs are set to sleep the display in 3 minutes and the Hard Drive in 15 minutes. I fried one of my processors on the old Quicksilver by setting the Hard Drive sleep to NEVER. Don't want to make that mistake again on this Mac Mini, but I'm afraid that it is these prefs that are causing the primary internal HD to sleep, and at the same time lose my new external HD. Mysteriously, I have a SimpleTech 160GB HD with two partitions connected via USB2.0 and these NEVER dissappear.
    Anyone have some helpful advice? It would be greatly appreciated.

    Well, it's now Sunday, around 11:00am. What I have discovered has nothing at all to do with Energy Saver prefs as I had previously suspected. This morning, after having unchecked the box that would "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible," I woke the computer and discovered that once again all partitions of my new external hard drive were no longer mounted. So I thought of trying something new.
    Because I believed it to be insignificant, I failed to mention that this hard drive has two FireWire 800 ports. One is connected directly to the Mac Mini, the other I used to daisy chain a connection to my iSight camera (FireWire 400) using a bilingual cable. I wondered if the daisy chain might be causing a problem somehow. Incidentally, the iSight camera launches iChat whenever I turn the new HD off and then on again. An action which has always caused the missing partitions to mount. iChat launches even if the aperture cover is closed (turns camera off). Note: connected this way the iSight camera has been working fine.
    So this is what I tried next. I simply unplugged the bilingual cord connecting my iSight camera. The first time the computer went to sleep, when I woke it again all the partitions were right where they should be. So I took the next step by once again checking the box next to "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible.” Now the Energy Saver prefs are once again set exactly the way they were before I bought this new drive. I left for church at 7:45 and returned around 11:00am. Again, when I woke the computer all partitions of the new drive were exactly where they should be.
    So, problem gone. But now how do I connect my iSight camera? And why is it causing all the partitions for the external drive to drop from the desktop every time the computer sleeps?
    I have a son in the Navy and use the iSight to video chat when he is overseas. Is there something obviously wrong about the way I had the iSight camera connected? I would certainly welcome any help or suggestions.
    Thanks in advance,

  • I have a macbook and when I power it on and then select myself as a user...It won't power up. It stays in the white screen with the apple logo. I am online currently under 'guest user'. Is there anything I can do from the keyboard to fix this??? Help!!!

    I have a macbook and when I power it on and then select myself as a user...It won't power up. It stays in the white screen with the apple logo. I am online currently under 'guest user'. Is there anything I can do from the keyboard to fix this??? Help!!!

    Could you specify the model of MacBook and the OS X it's running, please? Some of the advice or references vary along with the system, so this could be helpful to formulate a reply. I've never used a Guest User selection, but do have more than one User.
    If the computer does not have an optical drive, you may be able to boot it into a recovery disk mode or something; in an attempt to see what is wrong and maybe fix it.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • PS CS6 - How do I get colour picker to show the colour difference between new & current in the colour preview box?

    In previous versions, I would click the on the colour selection boxes (tool bar) and the colour difference would show in the Colour Picker box. The selected colour (new or current) would show. The target circle would physically move around.  Now all the colour number change, but the colour target doesn't move.  I used to colour correct items by checking how close using the colour picker and rapidly switching back & forth.  Now I can't do that. Help!

    In a nutshell, you have to simplify the frame layer and erase the interior.
    Here are the steps:
    Create your background.
    Add a new layer:
    Drag the frame you want to use onto the editing surface.  The frame will come in on its own layer:
    Simplify that frame layer:
    Choose the Magic Wand Tool and give it these settings:
    Click on the interior gray area of the frame with the Magic Wand to select it, and hit your Delete key:
    Switch to the Eraser Tool and erase the stuff that's left in the middle:
    Select the empty layer (Layer 1 in this example) and use File...Place to place your image on it.  The layer name will change to the name of the image.  Adjust the size and placement of the image.  Your layers will now look like this:
    With the frame layer selected, add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, making sure to "clip" it to the frame layer.  Adjust the sliders to suit:
    The final result:

  • Why won't an FLV file created by Premier Pro open and Play?

    As the title states...I exported a sequence as a flv file and my computer won't play it... It is strange that the amount of Gigabytes used by Adobe ( I have the Master Version) won't open an FLV it created. Yes,
    I have Quicktime installed BTW. Is there something I need to turn on? Or do I need 'yet-another' download to make an .FLV play?

    @JtSmith- BTW I put this ? in this area because I created the File in PremPro.. So I wondered why it would not play it back. However your idea of parking the file so a stand alone /embedded player made me think to try and open it with a Browser. Which indeed my .f4v file did open that PremPro created. Yet the FLV file would not open. IT seems FB (Flash Builder) has taken proprietary rights over it...
    @JSimon- I could not find the VLC Player you mentioned, if you can tell me where I can find that or which or what program that is in...?
    Anyhow FWIW, Prem Pro did a great job on creating a Lossless FLV file from a file that was 330mb to 11mb and still looks pretty good for web use. BTW.. Hence the Prem Pro post. After all we web users would like the smallest, cleanest file we can produce from our PremPro exports. Right? Thanks for the idea JT and J Simon if you get a chance to let me know if that VLC player came with my suite or must I download the Open Source VLC player..The one that turns every icon into an 'orange construction cones'
    Thanks

    Why won't my printer print page numbers in a document? The page numbers show in print preview, but will not print on document.

    Perhaps you have set the margins so tight to the edge of the paper that you have gotten into the non-printing area for your printer. Most printers have a dead zone.
    What are your margin settings?

  • Why does attaching my design to yahoo mail change the colours?

    Hi there,
    Sorry if I'm being stupid here - I'm quite new to AI and still getting my head around the colour profiles. I've just done a design that I need to get printed, so made sure it was in CMYK from the start. My friend (who is getting it printed) wanted the design as a jpeg, which exported fine on my mac, the colours look as they're supposed to (watercolours, so not overly bright), but when I attach it to an email (and when I uploaded it to this forum as well), this is what happens - the colours going all fluro.
    I'm sure it's something really simple that I just have no idea about - hope someone can enlighten me!
    Thanks,
    Olivia

    Sure it's something simple, but since you haven't provided any exact info about your procedures, we can't really know. Presumably they are simply stripping all color profile information and/ or doing some unwanted server-side recompression and conversion to RGB. That being so, the answer would be to pack your file into a ZIP or create a PDF which they may simply leave alone. Otherwise of course as with all CMYK content it doesn't do you any good if your own system isn't calibrated and you do not use the correct profiles just as the same your friend needs to work calibrated. Else there would be no point to it.
