Can't get panels and preferences to save with MacBook Pro

I can not get panels and preferences to save using Illustrator CS6 on a MacBook Pro. When I close out of AI the settings/preferences don't stay. Please help.
Thank you
Dan

Have you tried rebuilding preferences?

Workspaces are saved in your local user folder. If workspaces are not saved, this could be problems with either Illustrators preferences in general or your user account.

  • Can't get Canon MP620 to work wirelessly with MacBook Pro or AirPort

    I bought a Canon MP620 printer at the Apple Store. I specifically asked if it would work wirelessly with my MacBook Pro or AirPort Express since I read comments to the contrary on here. I was assured it would work without a problem and I wouldn't need to upgrade to AirPort Extreme. My Mac is not able to find my printer. Does anyone have any suggestions? I did all of the troubleshooting and nothing works. I have another printer plugged into my AirPort Express so I can't plug this one in (was told at Apple Store that I wouldn't need to).

    Hi magcat72,
    As BDAqua has mentioned already, you need to configure the wireless network settings first. This is done by connecting the Mac directly to the printer via USB. But before you do this, stick the MP620 CD into your Mac and install the drivers and the Canon IJ Network utility. Once these have been added to the Mac, you can then connect the 620 to the Mac. This should automatically add the printer to your printer list (in Print & Fax). If it doesn't, then you can add the printer manually, by clicking the + and using the Default view.
    Once you have the printer queue installed, you can open the queue and click the Utility icon. This will display the MP620 connected via USB. Select it and then click the Network button. This will now guide you through connecting the MP620 to your wireless network.
    Once you have completed the network configuration for the printer, you can turn it off and unplug the USB cable from your Mac. You can then move the printer to where you want it to reside and turn it back on again.
    Now you need to add the network printer queue, as the previous queue was for direct USB. In fact, to save you selecting the wrong printer, delete the current MP620 from your list by using the - (minus) button.
    To add the network printer queue, select to Add a printer and then select More Printers. In the top menu you should see Canon IJ Network. Select this and after a short while the printer should appear with its MAC address (a series of numbers and letters separated by colons) in the lower pane. Select the 620 and click Add.
    Now you should be ready to print. If any of the above doesn't work for you then please reply.

  • Where can I get an additional power source for my MacBook Pro?

    I am travelling to Europe next week and will be travelling on the road quite often. I would like to get some work done during that time. My laptop battery will inevitably run out of power during that time and I would like to carry an additional power source with me so I can get some extra juice when I am nowhere near an outlet.
    I have the latest MacBook Pro where the battery is not removable.
    Where can I get an additional power source for my MacBook Pro? I don't mind if it is a 3rd party product.

    you could get something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-XP18000-Universal-External-Netbooks/dp/B002K8M9H C
    it's about the same cost as an extra battery used to be. there's a range of similiar products at Amazon, i'd check reviews.

    Screen stuck on gray, used shift key and my screen appears with MacBook Pro and not the recovery option. Please help!

    Hi ..
    Shift key boots into Safe Mode, not Recovery.
    This only works on a Mac running v10.7 Lion or later.
    Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk and restore OS X using OS X Recovery

  • Can't get Headphone and Mic to work with Skype

    Hello, I have a 3 year old Macbook Pro and I am running OS 10.8.3. I am trying to get my USB headphone and mic to work with Skype but I'm not having any success. I have tried several different headphones with the same result. I finally phoned Skype support and they told me that there are some registry settings that are corrupted and that they could install the proper ones on my MBP for $149.99. I told them I did not want to spend that kind of money but I am curious if anybody else is having that issue and if anybody has a solution. Is it true that my registry values could be corrupted causing this issue. If I start up Parallels and open Skype in Windows 7 I have no issues whatsoever using the headphone. It works every time but I cannot get it to work on the Mac platform. I would appreciate any advice anybody might have. Many thanks in advance.

    What are the system requirements of your headphones & mics?  It's possible they are not compatible w/Macs and/or your current OS system. 

  • How can I get iTunes 10.5.2 on my MacBook Pro to recognize my iPod Classic (especially because the Finder and desktop DO show it when I plug it in)?

    When I plug my iPod Classic into my MacBook Pro, the iPod appears on the desktop and automatically launches iTunes.  The iPod also appears in the Finder.  But no mtter how long the beach ball spins in iTunes, it never recognizes my iPod.  I am using iTunes 10.5.2.  I don't think it's the connecting cable or the iPod, since it works on other computers.  From what I have read on the support forums, it seems like the problem might have been upgrading iTunes.  But I am not sure how to downgrade and am fearful of losing my music.  Help?

  • I can't get dvd's to play on my macbook pro

    It comes up as a file, and i can view each chapter as a different file, but I can't get it to play.

  • How can I get Netflix Movies to run on my MacBook Pro via wi fi?

    When I log onto Netfix with my MacBook Pro and select a movie to watch on line, I find that I lack an application that will work only in a 32-bit environment.  It won't load.  Is there any other application I can use to substitute for that?

    Do you have Silverlight installed?
    What browser are you using?  I know that FireFox 4 beta 7/8 had a problem. Make sure if you are, update to the non-beta version.
    This was posted on Mozilla Firefox support;
    Netflix requires  the Silverlight plugin, which isn't working  in Firefox 4.0 Beta 7 or higher on Mac OS 10.6,  because of this bug:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598406
    Bug 598406 - Silverlight not supported by i386/x86_64 universal binary on Mac OS X 10.6 
    As a temporary workaround until  this bug is fixed, try running Firefox 4 Beta in 32-bit mode, using these instructions:
    From the menu bar, select Firefox and then select Quit Firefox
    Open the Applications folder in Finder and locate the Firefox application icon.
    Hold down the control key while you click the Firefox icon and select Get Info from the list of menu items.
    In the "Firefox Info" window, click the box in front of "Open in 32-bit mode" so that it is checked. 
    Close the "Firefox Info" window and then restart Firefox 4.

  • How can I get my data out of my broken Macbook Pro?

    My macbook pro was working weird for no reason at Friday, and it also cannot turn on at Saturday suddenly, I didn't have time to backup my laptop before it stop working. Is this a response of Apple to help me take my data out of my broken laptop? Even I am still covered by applecare, they told me I need pay for extra 99 dollars for backup my data to my external hard drive.
