After installing Photoshop CS5, now Illustrator CS5.1 won't stay open!

I have tried opening it from another user account; same problem.  I have Illustrator CS2 installed as well; it works fine.  Both Illustrator versions have worked together for more than a year.  What else can I try?

Sounds like the Photoshop was from CS5. The Illustrator is from CS5.5. You may be best served by uninstalling both, running the cleaner tool and reinstalling Photoshop before Illustrator.

    Try restarting first. This fixes a lot of issues after installing Mavericks.
    If you have an iCloud account, you might want to uncheck Contacts in System Preferences > iCloud. Does contacts open now? If it's Gmail, Yahoo or other account that syncs contacts, uncheck in System Preferences > Internet Accounts.

  • Itunes won't stay open.

    I recently just updated my Macbook Pro (older version from 2010, 10.6.8), including Itunes. Now I tunes won't stay open. Whenever I click on the icon to start It flashes open but then closes immediately. I recently had my hard drive wiped because of a problem so if that could be a contributing factor I don't know. Itunes was working fine before the update.

  • After installing CS6 can I uninstall CS5?  If so, how do I do it?

    After installing CS6 can I uninstall CS5?  If so, how do I do it?

    This comes up repeatedly, so you may want to do a forum search.
    In a nutshell:
    If you wanted to remove CS5, you should have done so before installing CS6.  The CS5 uninstaller is very likely to mess with and destroy the CS6 installation.
    Your best bet now is to use the CS6 uninstaller and uninstall CS6 first, then use the CS5 uninstaller to uninstall CS5, then run the Adobe CSClean script (downloadable from the Adobe site), and finally install CS6 again.
    All adobe updaters are FULL installers and do not need a previously installed version to work.  When they don't find a prior version installed, they will simply prompt you for the old serial number as well as the new one.

    Moving this discussion to the Illustrator forum.  What have you tried so far to resolve your difficulties?  Have you tried removing and reinstalling Illustrator?  If so did you receive an error message during the install process? 

  • Placing Photoshop files in Illustrator CS5 results in wrong percentages of spot colors?

    When placing a native PSD file into Illustrator CS5 that includes different percentages of spot colors they will be different than what was specified in Photoshop. The spot colors are overlaying CMYK to create a see thru look.
    For example if the spot color is 40% it will end up being 16%. 100% will stay at 100%, but any other percentage will be different than what is entered in Photoshop.
    We are able to see the difference when creating a PDF or when the file is output to our high end printer. It can also be visually seen when putting an Illustrator CS4 and and Illustrator CS5 side by side.
    I can take the same PSD file and place it into Illustrator CS4 and it retains the percentage that is entered in Photoshop. All percentages match the percentages that are entered in Photoshop when a PDF is created or printed to our printer.
    I have tried saving the PSD file out as a Tiff file and a DCS2.0 file and get the same results in Illustrator CS5.
    Is there a bug in Illustrator CS5 or should we handle our Spot Color Scans a different way? We never had this issue with any previous version of Illustrator.
    Any suggestions or solutions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Mike,
    I understand what your saying but I should have mentioned that the Spot Colors are actually overlaying the CMYK in Photoshop not in Illustrator CS5. When this scan gets placed in Illustrator the Spot Colors values are different. There is no art below the scan in Illustrator. Hope this makes it a little clearer on what were trying to do.
    Also remember that it works just fine in any version of Illustrator before CS5.
    Thanks

  • Updated my iPhone 5 to ios7, in the App store after installing updates I now have a never ending list of the Apps I've updated.  How do I get rid of the list after they've been updated?  In the previous version I did not have an annoying permanent list.

    iOS 7 allows you to have your apps update automatically. Therefore, the list of what has been updated stays so that you can see what was updated, when and what the release notes say. It has been suggested that they list has a limit, much like Recents. Currently, there is no way for the user to delete the entries manually. Just try not to look at them.

    Hi Hardy Tasso,
    Are you seeing this problem since first launch of PSE13 after installation or recently?
    Please try:
    Keep Ctrl + Alt + Shift keys pressed while launching PSE13 Editor and click OK on the dialog that comes next.

  • After installing Maverick on my Macbook it won't reboot

Holding down option when turning on did work but when i go into disk utility and i try to verify and repair disk of my 250GB Toshiba MK2555GSXF Media i get a warning saying "Live File system repair is not supported"

    Hi,
    On the iOS devices remove the Apple ID.
    Set the device in to Airplane Mode (this breaks with the server)
    Start with the iPhone to add back the Apple ID - only after you see the iPhone Number is Verified.
    The Restart the Mac Version
    Accept the pops ups that state what the iPhone  is using.
    Do same on iPad.

  • New Bitmap missing from context menu after installing photoshop

    After installing photoshop CS6 from CD onto Windows 7x64; my context menu > New > bitmap is no longer available.  registry settings are intact and I've used Bridge ro reassociate .bmp with mspaint but the option still does not appear.  The installation of photoshop is the only change to the computer in several months.
    I can workaround by creating new txt files and changing the extension but this adds a step to a (non photoshop related) workflow that's been in place and worked well for years.

    I don't know why Photoshop would kill the system default entry for new bitmap - possibly because it has associated itself with that file type.
    First thing to look at - start Adobe Bridge CS6, go into the Edit - Preferences - File Type Associations dialog, and see if you can re-associate MSPAINT.EXE with the BMP format.  That may correct the issue, but I can't say for certain as I don't want to try it here and change my own setup.
    I don't use the New context menu functionality for making new bitmaps myself, but when I looked to see what shows up in my New context menu, I found this:
    Choosing the IrfanView BMP File entry led to this:
    If you can't recover the old functionality via the Bridge settings, it may be that you can install the freeware viewer IrfanView and have it associate itself with the BMP file type.

  • Book won`t stay open in media overdrive after ios 7 install

    In Media Overdrive my book won`t stay open after ios7 install.  Please help!

    I got the same problem with my iphone 5 rear camera and tried the solutions suggested here but it did not work.
    The camera application which came with ios7 is frozen as soon as it opens. I does not take photos or switch between cameras.
    I have been able to use the front camera with Snapseed, QR reader . however no application is able to open my rear camera.
    I am not sure but  it can related with the application updates either ios7 or the camera applications already installed on our iphone. Uninstalling those apps which has access to camera and rebooting may solve the problem. This is just an idea !
