Adobe is great software but has anyone else noticed that Corel has a better line drawing tool?

Adobe is great software but has anyone else noticed that Corel has a better line drawing tool? I end up doing all my line drawing in Corel because it is so simple and then importing it into adobe. You would think, with all these updates that they are constantly doing Adobe would think to simplify it's pen tool. I'm talking about the pen tool in illustrator. Don't even get me started on the bloody rubbish pen tool they've got in photoshop. It makes deep etching something properly a really agonising task.

I'm not sure that I followed everything, but you got a replacement phone and continue to experience problems? It sounds like a logical move would be to have AT&T replace your SIM card. I would doubt that the size/fit is an issue, these things are a standard size, but replacing the SIM will have an impact on the network set-up that might be the root cause.

Has anyone else noticed that Adobe Camera Raw 7.x exhibits odd behavior compared to version 6.x?

I have found no discussion of this subject on Adobe's forums, so I am asking here. I find that Adobe Camera Raw 7.x's "auto" mode frequently produces overexposed images with lots of blowouts necessitating much more manual tweaking than was required with the older 6.x series of plug-ins. Has anyone else noticed this behavior?

Has anyone else noticed that the iOS 6 Maps App is missing the area code for many places it has listed?

If I try to look up a local business on the Maps App it drops a pin on all of the locations matching my search parameters. However, when I get details about a dropped pin, the phone number is usually missing the area code! For example, if the phone number is +1 (123) 555-5555 it would show up as +1 (555) 555-5. This makes it impossible to call directly from the maps app or to copy and paste infront of a manually entered area code (because of the '+1'). Has anyone else noticed this?

Has anyone else noticed that Software Update is not requiring a password to install updates?

I noticed this started after the 10.6.6 update on all my Macs. Anyone else experiencing this?

The whole point of the password is to prevent software from installing without the user or admin definitively accepting that it is ok to do so.
Actually, it is to give access to areas that you don't normally have access to, and in the case of updates coming straight from Apple and installed from an admin account, it has been deemed safe not to request a password. I believe those updates are verified by the system somehow, so they cannot be malicious unless someone hacks Apple, and then you'd still think nothing of giving your password anyway. There's no reason to ask for a password in this case.
I understand this. It protects the "protected" parts of the system. But I still think that you should have the last say even if Apple is as trusted as they are. At the end of the day it is still your computer. I deal with hardware that requires firmware and software on a regular basis, and just because the company says it is ok to do an update, does not always make it appropriate to do so. A lot of times it causes more harm then good. There have been several cases (like iPhoto) recently where you may want to hold off on an update, and allowing all the packages to install in a bundle without a password opens you up for potential issues.
Thomas A Reed wrote:
anyone can come along in your house and run updates without your knowledge
If you've got untrusted people using your admin account, you have bigger problems than someone installing an Apple software update without your knowledge. If you are security-minded, you don't do that, and thus this issue becomes moot, and if you're not security-minded, then the issue is moot because you don't care enough to secure your computer.
Perhaps that read different from how it was intended to sound. My intention for that statement was not to suggest that I do not fully trust my family, but rather that they may not know what they are doing. Surely you have someone in your family that comes to you for computer advice? The password was an added security feature that gave me piece of mind from one of those "I don't know what just happened all I did was..." moments. If I wasn't security minded, do you think I would waste my time expressing an opinion about a security issue?

this opens a door for OSX to automatically add these updates in the future without your consent as long as Apple deems them appropriate
Don't you think that's a little paranoid? Why would Apple do that? Microsoft tries to copy Apple, not the other way around.
Actually no I don't think it is paranoid. I do agree that Microsoft copies Apple in every which way they can, and I am a 100% non-Windows household. I simply see this as a potential pitfall that Apple has opened up. Even though I do love, admire, and trust Apple, at the end of the day they are a business, and in such a decision could be made to "protect" its user base by allowing OSX to automatically add any updates they deem necessary whenever they want in order to "protect" the perception of their product. As I stated above, not all updates are wanted right away.

Has anyone else noticed that Iphone 3G tray is larger than AT&T's sim card?

Hello,
Just a brief history of my iphone to start. Purchased in December of 09 via Best Buy. About 3 months ago I started to have connectivity issues with the Iphone. I would not receive notices of people calling and my text messages would come 12-48 hrs later than when they were sent. I called AT&T first regarding the issue. They pointed the finger at Apple and said it was their issue, I felt that it was their issue. I blamed their 3G network for the issue, as well as stating that they do not keep their end of the bargain regarding the best 3G network. I threatened a class action lawsuit against them regarding the false claims of their cellular network in Wisconsin being available to my area. That aroused someone because before I knew it I was being told that I would get a new phone. I received the new phone within 5 days. The phone I received is no better than my previous iphone. Same issues as stated above, as well as searching for service, showing one bar with the edge symbol, and having the phone remove the edge symbol when making a call. It's ridiculous to say the least. So one of my questions is, can Apples hardware or software be the issue or is it a case of AT&T network being non compatible with Apples hardware or vice versa? Let me also state that its not just me with these problems where I live(Area code 53559) but others as well with the Iphone 3G. Here is the funny part, one of my friends has the 3Gs and his phone does great where I live, 4-5 bars constantly to my one or none. This brings me to believe that the 3Gs hardware is different some how? Antennae?etc. Is this true? I'm at my ropes end trying to get my phone to work like it should. I'm also exhausted dealing with the blame game between Apple and AT&T. If anyone has any answers or advice I would appreciate it very much. Regarding the Subject of this post, does anyone else's card come up short of fitting(Could this contribute to the connectivity issues?) the tray perfectly front to rear?

Has anyone else noticed that on CC the pentool does not allow you to create an open path? When I try to make two open paths(eg; two separate lines), the pentool connects them automatically. Also it does not automatically close a path. This is both a probl

This is a big headache having the pentool respond this way. Does anyone else have this problem? I have also installed CC 2014 on my home computer and have the same problem. so it seems to be a problem with the program.

Hi Doug,
I'm sure I did not notice a difference in Esc key behavior simply because I have never tried to use the Esc key to stop the Pen Tool from picking up the current path.
I just tested with all these versions of Photoshop: 6.0, CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS6, CC 14.x, and CC (2014) on my PC workstation running Windows 8.1.
Observations:
Photoshop versions 6.0, CS5, and CS6 DO terminate the creation of the current path at the current point upon pressing the Esc key. However, Photoshop versions CS2, CS3, CS4, CC 14.x, and CC (2014). do not terminate the creation of the path upon pressing Esc, and will continue the path with another pen click. Photoshop CC 14.x and CC (2014) may make it SEEM like the path creation is terminated because they hide the points, but the next click continues the path and causes all the points to reappear.
In every case holding the control key down (to temporarily choose the Direct Selection Tool) and clicking off the current path terminates the creation with an open path and allows the creation of another separate path.
No version closes the path (made the path into a closed shape) upon pressing Esc. The only way I know to close a path is to bring the cursor back to the starting point, watch for a little o to appear next to the cursor, then click the mouse.
With Photoshop 6.0, CS2, CS3, CS4, and CS5 the response of the Pen Tool was instantaneous. There was a definite slowdown / sluggishness in Photoshop CS6 and CC 14.x, which is now corrected in Photoshop CC (2014), which is again instantly responsive.
The only other thing I can think of regarding closing a path might be that when using the Pen Tool there are choices in the Options Bar about whether you're creating a shape or a path. Are you ensuring you have that set the same way as you have had it set in the past?

Has anyone else noticed that the flag accelerators are broken in LR5?

I'm running LR5 on Windows 64 bit and have noticed that the flag accelerator keys, P, U and X don't work. When I press these in the Library module, the text pop-up tells me that the appropriate flag state is being set but the flag never actually changes state. To change the flag, I have to right click and use the "Set Flag..." context menu. This makes editing a lot slower since I can no longer move through all the shots and pick selects and rejects using the keyboard. Can anyone suggest a workaround?

Rikk,
Thanks for the pointer. In the end, it seems that this was some local weirdness. It's been failing for a couple of days but, after posting the question, I closed LR and restarted and, hey presto, the accelerators and working correctly again. Probably just another case of Windows bit rot but I'll keep my eyes open for a repeat since I've never seen Lightroom behave that way before.

Has anyone else noticed that Auto-Brightness does work on iOS 6?

I recently noticed that Auto-brightness does not work under iOS 6 for my iPhone. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

If it were the iOS, there would be a tremendous number of folks with this issue.
It is not the iOS.
If resetting doesn't solve it, try restoring.

Has anyone else noticed that the Verizon reps in here are just not very helpful?

Maybe its me, but I notice that the worse responses to someone in need come from those with Verizon customer service. Its like they are not really paying attention to the question, responses, or problem and just type a pat scripted response with this annoying fake empathy.
I'll start.
Advice #1:
I think every Verizon Rep in this community forum should get a cell phone. An Android smartphone...on the Verizon network....one that just recently got the Kit Kat update. I WANT THEM TO FEEL OUR PAIN!!!!
(From many of the VZW CS responses, its like there are clueless to what is going on. Like they don't have any experience with the cell phones problems we describe.)

Has anyone else noticed that colors are washed out on screen on the white iPhone?

Comparing the white and black iPhone 4 side by side, I noticed that colors on the screen are washed out on the white iPhone. This is clearly noticable when clicking on messages and looking at the top where the word messages appears in blue/gray color. When looking at this on the white iPhone, its more white than blue/gray.

It could be just the contrast in color with your eyes looking at the white iphone vs the black one. Your eyes can sometimes play tricks on you. But in all seriousness, iPhone screens vary in color temperatures. I have seen two black iphones 4s that looked like they had different displays in them.

Has anyone else noticed that: "The OS X Lion v10.7.3 Update includes Safari 5.1.3 and fixes that: Resolve a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep" didn't work?

I installed OS X Lion v10.7.3 because of the following claim.
The OS X Lion v10.7.3 Update includes Safari 5.1.3 and fixes that:
Resolve a Wi-Fi connection issue when waking from sleep
It continues to be a real pain having to reconnect to the network each time I wake my MacBook Air from sleep.
Does anyone have a suggestion for the resolution to this problem?

It seems the update fixed old problems for some and caused new problems for others. Sorry to hear you're in the latter group.
Here are some things to try.
1. Go to System Preferences > Network, and click the gear icon under the network interfaces like so:
Whatever service order you have set, drag Wi-Fi either to the top (assuming it's not already there) or someplace else in the list. Click OK and then Apply. Sleep the system then wake it again to observe any changes.
2. Click Wi-Fi in the above then click Advanced. Select all the networks your computer has ever joined and delete them with the "-" button. OK then Apply again. Select your network under the AirPort icon to re-join it. Sleep and wake again to see if that did anything.
3. Try creating a new, temporary user account. Log in under that account to see if its behavior is any different.
You may have done all of these already but perhaps there is something you have not thought of. If nothing helps we may just have to wait a bit longer for Apple to release a fix.

Has anyone else noticed that custom image bullets arent working?

You can set the size from the inspector but when you publish to the iPad the setting is lost and the image bullets resume their "pre-adjusted" size - i.e. unusuable. Ive asked Cupertino to add this to the bug list for IBA 1.01. keep em coming folks
(By the way when you log the bug they then offer a "want to check out the forum" link which sends you to a dead webpage ;-)) Cute

Found a solution, using ipfw I added a rule which allowed the UDP broadcast in
the rule is as follows:
add 0010 allow udp from any to any src-port 67 dst-port 68 in
I had to make this rule appear before others before it would work.
Hope that helps someone else.

Has anyone else noticed that iBooks search does not find all information that should be located for a specific search criteria?

I am converting a novel to ePub format. I am currently in the process of adding "end notes" to the book. Each will have a flag embedded at the proper spot in the various chapters that is coded as "[See End Note xx]" where xx is a one or two digit number. Each of the flags has those words surrounded by the HTML that links the flag to the proper end note at the back of the book.
To verify that I have indeed inserted correctly each end note, I copy the book's epub file from my desktop PC to the iPad. I then do a search in iBooks to locate each occurance of "[See End Note" or just "End Note". I should see each of these flags listed. Last night it would list all of them except "[See End Note 28]"! If I did a search for "28", it would appear.
I then copied just the flag itself ("[See End Note 28]") without the associated linkage HTML to the back of the document, and placed the copy just in front of the paragraph that contains it. Neither of the two flags were found.
I then duplicated just the flags for end notes 27 and 29 which the search function had located. I placed the copies surrounding the copied flag for 29. The result was as follows in the text of the book:
[See End Note 27]
[See End Note 28]
[See End Note 29]
Although 27 and 29 were still being shown in their normal places, none of the above three inserted (test) flags was displayed by the search!
It seemed that the iBooks search goes through part of the book, but cannot take the whole book in one piece. It then continues, but leaves a gap that is not scanned per the search criteria. To test that theory, I removed the entire text of several chapters that did not contain any end notes. I then loaded this modified copy of the book into the iPad. When I ran a search using "End Note", all of the flags (including the special test flags) were displayed. The list included the "missing" "[See End Note 28]" that cannot be found if the all of the chapters have their text!
I shall be calling Apple in a few minutes to again attempt to get the apparent "bug" (aka design or coding flaw) removed such that it does not
impact the ability of the iPad to be a useful tool.
