All instances of one symbol turned white

Hi There,
Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I've just noticed that all instances of one particular symbol is showing up document-wide as a white box.
At first I thought it may have happened after I grouped several objects together but if I place the symbol again it looks fine until it is resized, then it turns white.
Has anyone seen this before?
Cheers

Thanks for the reply - I'm pretty sure this is a bug but just incase, here is all the info:
Can you reproduce this problem on a new file?
Not as yet.
Is this the only file where the problem occurs?
Currently I'm only using one file so yes. The issue appears randomly on multiple Macs.
Are you Mac or PC?
CS5 on Mac OS 10.5.8
Is this problem occurring on export or in Preview or is it just happening in Editing mode.
We see the issue in preview/edit modes and on files exported.
Do you have any blend modes applied to the instances or symbols?
No but all the gradients effected blend from solid colour to transparent.
While working on my laptop over the weekend, some of the gradients re-rendered correctly but some did not. Upon opening the file on my work computer, those gradients that re-rendered over the weekend still look correct.
If you think it's a bug I'll make a bug report.
Cheers
Ben

Call all instances of a symbol

Hej,
i need to place 10 different kinds of symbols, a hundred times each on my stage. Theses symbols have the same shape, but different colors. I need to filter them out in a tiny top-menu.
So, if i click e.g. on a red circle, i want all non red symbols to set there opacity to 0.5.
It could be simple if i place all red symbols into a container "$color-symbols" and set the opacity to them. But that is not possible, because I need to place each symbol manually. And if they are childs of another symbol, drag and drop is horrible.
Now i am wondering if it is possible to call all symbols on stage that are instances of a symbol in my library.
And is there a nice way to call "all-other-colors" instead of
sym.$("color-1").animate({opacity:0.5},500);
sym.$("color-9").animate({opacity:0.5},500);
sym.$("my-own-color").animate({opacity:1},500);
on every button on stage?

Thanks for your help,
i use the classes to specify a target url for each symbol.
For Example:
I have three red symbols and three blue symbols.
The classes for the red-ones are:
33451, 56789 and 45678
for the blue ones:
983, 4, 1002
Inside of my symbols i have a script:
var names = (e.target.id).split("_");
var page = names[2];
var link = "http://www.url.no/subpage/"+page;
window.open(link, "_self");
If i find another way to put a specific ID (and it must be a number) on to each Instance, i could use the way you describe.
Because your idea is to use the class-names, there is no way to call all instances of a given symbol?
Is it possible to use wildcards for my array?
So i could name them "red-33451#1", "red-56789#2", "red-45678#3". And cut out everything between "-" and "#".
But remember that i need to place a few hundreds of them, which isn't fun. And if i need to insert one later or if i delete another one, i need to verify all my functions.

Is there a way to transform multiple individual «symbol instances» into one «symbol set»?

I have an artboard filled with «symbol instances» which I'd like to transform into one single «symbol set», in order to use the «symbolism tools».

merdesigner,
Are you looking for something like dragging some symbols out and arrange them, then select all and crate a new Symbol out of them?

My imac G5 turns off on mi then dont want to turn back on at all but after one day turns on mormaly then turns back off again

my imac G5 turns off on mi and dont want to turn back on at all but nex day tuns on normaly then tuns back off again

It could be several possible issues.
1) Your G5 iMac could be overheating. Depending on which model, you might be able to open the back by yourself (not on an iSight model), and using a can of compressed air, youcould blow the dust out of it.
2) The power supply could be going bad.
3) The hard drive could be going bad.
There could be several others.
If you have the original, came with the iMac when purchased new Install Disks, you can try running the Apple Hardware Test to see if it can determine any hardware issues. It can't always find the problem.
Good luck.

Try resetting your phone, hold the home and sleep/wake button down until the apple symbol comes up, then release. If that doesnt work, you may have damaged your phone and need to take it to an apple genius bar.

Just updated my Ipad operating system and one of my apps starts but then the screen turns white, with only the advertisment at the top showing

Just updated my Ipad operating system and one of my apps starts but then the screen turns white, with only the advertisment at the top showing

The normal suggestions.
Close the app,off fully. Double tap the home screen then touch and hold any of the icons on the task bar until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the - sign.
Then reboot the pad and try the spp again. If same issue, delete the app, then reload it. ( no charge). You may just have a bad copy. If continues, write to the developer, they may need to do an update. I have an older version of the same app and it works fine.
Since yours is the ad supported version, they are maing real sure you see the ad. Is it as simple as you need to click thru the ad to get to the game?

All of a sudden all the links in my page enlarge 100% and turn white when clicked

Hi - This is my first website and I have learned so much, but now I have a very irritating problem that I'm sure can be fixed by deleting a few lines of code, but I have no idea what to look for. All of a sudden all the links on one page of my site started turning white and enlarging almost 100% when you click on them. We page is at www.goEarthWorX.com/products. It happens to all the links on my page, and now there are weird white lines around one of the top products' names as well. Any help in what is going on would be very appreciated, as the site is almost complete and now I have this problem I just can't figure out on my own. Thank you so much!

CSS: /products/#7 (You have a LOT of CSS sheets. Try combining into one)

If this does not resolve the problem you have a hardware problem.

They probably could be related. Start with the articles below to troubleshoot issues with Wi-Fi as well as making sure that the router is using the recommended settings.

After renaming the desktop shotcuts have all turned white (icon picture missing)

Hi,
I'm trying the new windows and I just renamed some of the desktop shortcuts - removing from them the awful suffix "shortcut" and after restart they all turned white and the picture disappeared. The icons have been deleted also from the aplication's
.exe file and can't be reloaded.
Thanks
Win10 user

1. Go back to that registry hack program you were using to remove the arrows, UN-DO it.
2. If that failed to restore the desktop shortcuts, use the following tutorial. It is written for Win 8 /8.1. It is applicable to Win 10 TP.
http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/8486-default-file-associations-restore-windows-8-a.html
At the File Type or Protocol table, scroll down to .exe
> click it and save it to the desktop.
Follow the steps listed at the top of the tutorial from #1 to 7.
Scroll down to .lnk and repeat
the steps #1 to 7.
Reboot your computer.
Hopefully, that will restore your shortcuts' file type associations.
Good luck.

I turned on my mac and all i am getting is a white screen with a flashing envelpe

I turned on my computer and all that I see is a white screen with an file folder in the middle of screen that flahes. The file folder also has a question mark on it.

Try booting to Recovery (Command + R just after releasing the power button)
If you are running 10.6.8 or Earlier you will need the Install DVD and to hold down C instead.
Once in there go into Disk Utility, Can you see the Macintosh HD on the left hand side?
If so;
Click on it
Under the first aid tab select "Verify Disk"
Even if this comes back saying its verified and all good, click "Repair Disk" After this
If everything is good after that try restarting
If it says that you need to backup your data and reformat the drive ect, we have to do a Erase and Install.
(http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5943)
If you haven't got your data backed up you can get an external HDD install OSX onto it, then backup your files from that.
If you can't see anything on the left, the HDD is dead, or can't be mounted, head to an Apple Retail Store, or Service Provider, and if the data is important you can hit up a data recovery center.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
