After zooming in on an object using arrow keys to nudge, it crashes most of the time

After zooming in on an object, using arrow keys to nudge, it crashes most of the time.
Versions:
Illustrator CS6, latest update
Mac OS X 10.9.4
FontAgent Pro 6.2
Troubleshooting I've tried
-trashed all related Illus. preferences
-updated the only plug-in being used (FontAgent Pro), to the latest
-disabled all but absolutely necessary fonts
-repaired both system and user permissions
-quit all other apps, so that only Illus. running.
-fonts verified
Was never a problem until a couple weeks ago, so the obvious question is "what changed?". The two things we changed in the time period that the crashing started, is we replaced a balky external drive with a new one, and started our TimeMachine backups over again. And #2, we updated to the latest CS6 versions (due to other quirky issues).
One odd thing to point out...perhaps is "normal", but in the crash reports, it's reporting that Illustrator is 16.0.0, but "About Illustrator" shows that it's 16.2.2.
Everything else running fine on this iMac -- no reason to suspect it's the operating system.
Has anyone run into this bug? If so, what have you done to fix this?
I've not seen anything like this mentioned in Adobe's update change logs or their troubleshooting info.

-> go to View Menu -> Zoom -> click "Reset"
-> go to View Menu -> Page Style -> select "Basic Page Style"
-> go Tools Menu -> Clear Recent History -> Time range to clear: select EVERYTHING -> click Details (small arrow) button -> place Checkmarks on ALL Options -> click "Clear Now"
-> go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now
-> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE any Unwanted/Suspicious Extension (add-ons) -> Restart Firefox
You can enable the Trustworthy Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

Moving an object using arrow keys

I think I changed the default distance to move an object using the arrow keys from 1 Point (1/72 of an inch). Can someone help me with changing it back to the default or tell me how to adjust the distance you can move an object like a text field using the arrow keys. Thank you.

It's based on your grid Interval setting on the Drawing Aids palette. For a 1 point grid you would need an Interval of 12/pc (although it says points the grid measurement is picas, 12 points to the pica).
I find 1 point too fine, I use a grid of 4/pc (3 points) and have all my object measurements base around multiples of 3.

TS1398 since i have updated the latest software i am facing problem using wifi which is very very slow most of the time or wont connect at all was that update supposed to be for better or worse

is apple product going down hill it seems their updates are creating a lot of problem now the wifi connection is really ******* me off it doesnt connect or even if it does its very very slow i used to love using iphone but i think its time to move on to something else they have taken everyone for granted

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Mark.
I've never come across your first problem on any of the Apple notebooks I currently own (or have owned in the past). Then again, perhaps I'm not looking close enough.
Have you compared it with any other 12" PowerBook? If not, perhaps you might be able to try that at a local store with units on display.
Otherwise you might want to give AppleCare a call. Alternatively, if you have an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider near you (I don't know where you are located) then you can take it in to be checked.
As for your second problem (uneven illumination), that has been known to afflict other notebooks. My own 15" PB has had its screen replaced on two occasions because of this. Depending on the severity, you might be able to get it replaced. Mine became so bad that the screen was effectively unusable.
To be honest, here in the UK, I would actually try for a replacement PowerBook - if the problems were severe enough and also because your PB is still very new. However the consumer laws in your country (wherever that may be) might be very different to mine.

How do I browse through pictures (in open state) using arrow keys

Hi all. I know this is a lame question. But I am new to Mac. How do we navigate through photos in open mode. I mean usually in Windows, we open one picture and use arrow keys to navigate between photos.What are the keys I can use to navigate between photos. As of now, I have to close the photo and then double tap on another to view it. Thanks.

What application are you using? In iPhoto you can just use the right and left arrow keys to browse photos...

Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff!

Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up real fast and carries on going till it uses up all there is left. Most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff but not just neccessarily then! I find out it's happened when there's been an update after i restart and an extra webpage comes up with the particular addon/plugin/ff update. I have to restart most of time because nothing sorts it out. I'm using windows xp with the latest update of ff 13.0.1 it's not this version because it's been happening for a while. And it never started when i added a particular addon or plugin or when i added a new app to my pc either. Any idea as to what this may be or how i'd sort it out?
Cheers

Maybe disable hardware acceleration? This article should help: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram

Why, since installing 4.0.1, does the back arrow take me back two pages instead of one most of the time?

Since installing 4.0.1., I find that the back arrow takes me back two pages most of the time, forcing me to click again on the forward arrow to advance one page. This happens on all websites. I never had this problem before with any browser. It started with 4.0.1 and I have not added any plugins in a long time. My system is Windows XP.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Control Using Arrow Keys

Hope someone can help. I am new to Flash CS4 - still learning - and this has had me stumped for days! Deadline is still the same though...
I am redesigning a powerpoint presentation which contains a lot of graphs etc (29 slides total) and I want to animate this in Flash. I have everything drawn up in Illustrator and I'm now at the stage of bringing this all over to Flash.
Once I have everything in Flash and animated, what I want to do is allow the presenter (my client) to control playback using the arrow keys (aka powerpoint). My intention is to have labels at the various stages of the graph where the animation will stop (using stop();) and then when the presenter presses the right arrow key the presentation will continue to play. I also need the left arrow key to go back to the previous label in case they advance too far or they have to go back to review something.
I also wondered what best practice would be when creating something like this. Should I create separate Flash files for each 'slide' and load them (don't really know how to do this) or use separate movie clips for each slide within the one Flash file? My lack of knowledge leaves me wanting to build everything along the one timeline but I guess this would get too complicated...
Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere but after searching both the Adobe site and the web I cannot find a suitable solution.
Thanks in advance.

I'll try...
I have a presentation that I am working on which contains a series of graphs, charts etc that I have animated. This is navigated through by using your earlier code for the arrow keys.
Originally I had everything sitting on one timeline but this was getting too complicated to make the changes that I needed to do so I have spit each section into a separate file - now have 26 files plus the loader.
I now need to be able to move backwards from one loaded movie to the previous one - ie a section loads - the presenter moves through it using the arrow keys, but if they have to go back they can simply keep pressing the arrow key to get to the start of that section and then when they press it again it will load up the previous .swf file (hope this is making sense).
Code I have in my loader file:
var ldr:Loader=new Loader ();
addChild(ldr);
loadNext("sections/01title.swf");
function loadNext(swfName:String) {
ldr.unloadAndStop();
ldr.load(new URLRequest(swfName));
Code I have in each section at the start to use the arrow keys:
stop();
// create an array to hold the names of the frame labels
var labels:Array = new Array();
// take the name of each label in a MovieClip and put each
// one into the array...
for (var l:* in this.currentLabels) {
    labels.push(this.currentLabels[l].name);
// add an event listener to the stage to listen for key strokes
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyDownHandler);
// the function that interprets key strokes
function keyDownHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
    // find out where you are in the movieClip...
    var thisOne:* =labels.indexOf(currentLabel);
    // use the left or right arrow key press...
    switch (event.keyCode) {
        case 37 :// left arrow key
            if (thisOne!=0) {
                gotoAndPlay(labels[thisOne -1]);
            break;
        case 39 :// right arrow key
            if (thisOne!=labels.length-1) {
                gotoAndPlay(labels[thisOne + 1]);
            break;
And at the end of each section I have the following code to load up the next movie:
MovieClip(this.parent.parent).loadNext("sections/08woodmanagement.swf");
I see that you have replied to my new post about this - do you want me to reply to that and stop using this thread?

Can't move an object with arrow keys - CS3

In Fash CS3, suddenly, in certain files, I can't move an object left using arrow keys - but I can move the same object right, or if I hold down Shift + left arrow, it works correctly
Also - I can move the object down with arrow keys, but not up
Workaround - move an object on a different layer, then return to the problem object and it moves correctly. But this doesn't last long, the problem resurfaces.
Does anyone have a solution for this? (I've tried rebooting; tried copying all the layers into a new file - no help.)

Now, working in the same file, I just clicked on a stroke and it changed the stroke from a smooth curve to angular lines.
I suspect this file is corrupt. Any thoughts on how to salvage the weeks of work that have gone into it? Every version of this file has the same issues.
Thanks for any help.

Acrobat X Pro 10.1.12 under Yosemite crashes when trying to use arrow keys to navigate.

Acrobat X Pro 10.1.12 Mac
Yosemite OS X 10.10.1
Acrobat now crashes when attempting to use arrow keys to navigate. This is true on both MacBook Pro 15 retina and Mac Pro.

I ended up upgrading to Acrobat XI. This works, but Adobe is up to its old tricks changing the interface from what we're used to using. They now have decided to hide all the tools. You have to delve deep into the program to find the tools, then set up your own tool menus. Lord help you finding a tool that you use too occasionally to put on a custom menu.
Adobe has been doing this for years now. In Photoshop of olden days, it was simple to set up a brush, say, that you used frequently. Quite a few updates ago they made that vastly more difficult. And they've replaced words with happy little icons, that are not at all intuitive to use. I challenge you, too, to look at the icon for the airbrush and tell me whether it is on or off. (Sorry, this is mainly about Photoshop, but what they've done to the latest Acrobat is just as bad.)
Of course, their ultimate cuteness in making things difficult for the user is their essential abandonment of a Help system. You can't do a simple look-up of a function -- you have to go to an internet site and sort through a bunch of forums and user comments to get any information.
JEEZ Adobe!

CS 4 Dynamic Link to Encore doesn't work most of the time. Encore stops operating after opening and periodically Premier Pro stops working. I'm told that there has been a problem with CS4 when using Dynamic Link to go to Encore and build CD's. Is there

CS 4 Dynamic Link to Encore doesn't work most of the time. Encore stops operating after opening and periodically Premier Pro stops working. I'm told that there has been a problem with CS4 when using Dynamic Link to go to Encore and build CD's. Is there a way around this? Is there a patch to correct it?

To build CD's???
What problem does Encore have with DL?
If DL is not working properly for you the way around this is to export from Premiere to either mpeg2-dvd for DVD or BluRay H.264 for BD-disks and import the files in Encore.

BI web use ARROW Keys

Hello Everyone,
I am in process of moving planning from Excel to IP with one of my client. Client wants to use ARROW keys to scroll left and right on layout beside using TAB.
Can anyone help on this if you are aware how to add this functionality in BI Web ??
Regards,
Jasmi

Daniel,
I am assigning you points for your answer in other forum thread "Input functionality".
We have one more requirement, when entering data, system should prompt "SAVE DATA" if user tries to navigate to other screen or close browser by mistake. Is it possible, if by any chance you are aware about it ??
Also is it possible to copy same value across entire layout row / distribute equally by any button or function as we have layout for 24 months ??
Regards,
Jasmi

JComboBox problem when traversing using arrow keys and it is editable

Hello,
The JComboBox I am using is editable and user needs to traverse the list using arrow keys as long as user is not selecting a particular item. But this is not achievable when combobox is editable. Any suggestion to get rid of that.
regards,
Ranjan

Why can I no longer use arrow keys to go between tabs?

I recently got a new Windows 7 computer and have Firefox 3.6.10 installed on it. On my old computer I used to be able to double click the tabs so that they got a little "box" around the text (telling me it was selected) and then used the arrow keys to go back and forth between the tabs.
I liked doing it this way as that left a free hand to be able to close any tabs I didn't want open at the same time (unlike similar functions such as Ctrl + Page Up/Down which take two hands to operate) -- does anyone know if I can fix this? I read that pressing F7 might solve the problem, but that didn't seem to change anything.

In Firefox 3.5 and later you can no longer click the Tab bar to set focus to it.<br />
You can press Ctrl+K (Mac: Cmd+K) to set focus to the search bar and press the Tab key until the tab bar gets focus.

Using 5.0 on XP. Location bar is blank most of the time. I used to be able to copy location to paste link into other documents - no more. Where'd the info go?

I'm using 5.0 on XP. Location bar is blank most of the time. I used to be able to copy location to paste as link into other documents - no more. Where'd the info go? Example: My home page is "Google.com." "http://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=navclient-ff" used to display in the location bar if I clicked on the "home" icon. Now it goes to the page ok, but a faint prompr "Go to a Webpage" appears where the URL used to be. Now if I want to copy/ paste the link I have to find the page on Google Chrome and do it from there which requires extra steps. Did I inadvertently change an "option setting" or do something else to cause this?

Hi, I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. Any solutions??

Hi,
I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. I have a 3G plan but most of the time it switches automatically to EDGE. Thats when i have to either switch Airplane mode - On/Off and then it acts normal. Any permanant solutions to fix this problem?

Return the iPhone personally or via friend/relative/co-worker who is in
the US. The warranty is valid only in the country of original purchase - the USA
in this case. Apple will not accept international shipments for evaluation nor
will Apple ship out of the country after repair/replacement.
How did the iPhone from the US get to you in India? Reverse that process to
get it back to the US so someone can take it into Apple.
