Can't get pencil tool into merge drawing mode

I have downloaded the trial version of Adobe Executive Suite CS5. In the Flash Professional CS5 program I am trying to do a drawing with the pencil tool.  In the old version of Flash that I have (4.0) if I draw two lines that overlap, I can delete the line past the point where they cross.  In this version I can't do that.  It treats each line I draw as a separate item and won't combine them.  I notice the properties panel says I am in Object mode which would be the reason.  However I can't get it to go to merge mode, which is supposed to be the default.
Is this because it's the trial version and not all features work in that version?  Or could there be some other reason?
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.  My email address is [email protected] and I can be phoned at 541 782-5904 (Oregon).

Thank you.  I tried what you said and the button simply didn't respond.  However I was using the line tool or the pencil tool when I did this. I later tried using the rectangle tool and then it worked.  Once I got it switched back it stayed that way.  I appreciate your emailing me, it's so hard to get answers to problems with Adobe.  I had the old Flash program by Macromedia and I honestly believe it is easier to use than the new one.  But maybe that won't be so once I've spent more time with it.
Thanks again.

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

  • Working alternating with iPhoto and FCE tgrying to import pictures from iPhoto into FCE suddenly all my 22300 pictures disappeared leaving empty frames. Does somebody know where the pictures could have gone and how can I get them back into iPhoto? Lothar

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • After editing a RAW image in PE13 I can't get it back into my iPhoto library. If edited in iPhoto first and sent to PE13 for adjustments, it can be sent back to iPhoto library. Ideas?

    After editing a RAW image in PE13 I can't get it back into my iPhoto library. If edited first in iPhoto, and sent to PE13 for adjustments,
    I can get it back into my iPhoto library. Ideas?

    Thanks for answering my question. I always have had RAW checked to an external editor which is PE13 on my Preferences panel in iPhoto.
    I probably didn't make myself clear. When I send an ORIGINAL RAW untouched, unedited image to PE13 and do the editing and the
    adjustments- (it looks great) and then try and SAVE it and forward it to my iPhoto library, it will not be sent. On the other hand if any editing
    at all is first performed in iPhoto and then sent to PE13 for adjustments, and I SAVE it, it asks if I want to Replace this new edited image with
    what already exists in my iPhoto library, I click REPLACE, the little wheel spins, I go to iPhoto and the new image is there. PE13 does
    accept an original RAW image for editing because it will save it in PE13 in the RECENTLY EDITED column. Ideas? I need to keep my iPhoto
    library intact. Ideas? Thanks.

  • TS4036 I have a Macbook pro and I'm trying to set up my ICloud on it, and when I go to Preferences, there is NO ICloud there.  How can I get ICloud back into  "my preferences" to set it up?

    I have a MacBook Pro, its 1 year old.  I'm trying to set up my ICloud on it, and when I go to "preferences", (it says to go to "Preferences" in the instructions,) and then "click" on "ICloud", but my ICloud is not there.  How can I get "ICloud back into "my preferences". 

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    This suggests you don't have the right operating system. OS X 10.7.2 or better is required for iCloud, which operating system do you have.

  • I can't get my pictures into the public folder on the iPad 3.  Can anyone walk me through the steps?

    I can't get my pictures into the public folder on the iPad 3.  Can someone walk me through the steps?

    Ok, I'll give it a try.
    Presuming you already have a Dropbox account, and you have the app on your pad.
    Open the app, navigate to public folder.  Touch the upload icon at the bottom.  It will show you everything you have already uploaded.  To upload a new picture, then touch the plus sign at the top right.     You can create one or more subfolders to organize it however you want.
    Hit the plus sign again if needed, and the photo listing will show up.  Find the photos you want and mark them by touching them.  Then touch the blue word upload in the upper right.
    ( the directions assume the pad is in the landscape mode.)
    That's really all there is to it.  As I typed this I opened and uploaded a couple of pics to get the steps right.

  • How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait?

    How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait? Tilting the phone doesn't work.

    Try following - 1 by 1:-
    * make sure portrait lock is not on & try turning on/off several times
    * turn off mobile and turned it back on
    * hard reset by pressing lock and home at same time
    If problem persist, you need to try following but be careful since the following impact your iphone.
    * resetting all setting: this will reset all settings of your iphone back to factory setting
    * resetting all setting by erasing all data: this will reset all setting and erase all data so do back-up and proper syncing and read relevant details
    * restoring from itunes: this will also erase all data and take mobile back to day 1
    last 3 options are last resort and only be done if you are sure you can restore your data.
    Please don't hold me responsible for any data loss while doing last 3 options
    Cheers!

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor.

    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.

  • I have student CS3, can't get reshape tool to work as it says it will

    I select the points and/or segments with reshape tool, but when I click and drag it moves the entire path and not just the points I highlighted with the reshape tool.  Same with the white selection arrow = always moves the entire collection of paths because I can't get it to select just a portion.  Is there something I'm doing wrong?  I follow the directions exactly but there are several things that don't operate as described in manual.  Another example is the saved workspace.  It never brings back the color swatches I save onto my workspace - they're lost every time I close a file even though I save it per instructions.  Is this because it's a student version or is it user error?

    Yes
    On a closed path select the white arrow and click on the path not inside the path but on the path itself.
    That selects just that segment then you can reshape at will and when you go to another segment it will allow you to reshape that as well without reselecting the path.
    Again do not drag the white arrow or click within the path just click on a segment.
    If you draw the closed path with a shape tool then it is all selected so you have to delectit then select it withthe direct select tool clicking on the path segment.

  • How can I get an mp3 into the music section on iPad without using a computer?

    The situation is this: I have no access to a computer. The iPad is all that I have to use. So I have never synced it to iTunes or anything.
    I am trying to make a video using the movie making app Pinnacle Studio (iMovie doesn't do enough for what I want) and when it comes to choosing audio files, it shows what's stored in the music library of my iPad.
      But here is the problem. The audio is a track I have sent to my own email address as mp3. I want to be able to save it from email into my music folder so that it can then be imported into Pinnacle Studio. But when I click on the mp3 in the email it gives me only options to open it in iMovie or Dropbox. How can I get to use this piece of audio when I can't access a computer? Thanks a lot for any help.

    If you don't have iTunes you will need to buy the song from the iTunes store and download it that way. If it is a custom track you may be out of luck.  The only way to get a song on your device without iTunes involves jailbreaking it. 
    iOS is set up to prevent people from emailing each other songs, videos, movies, books, etc. This is how Apple got their contracts with the content providers by promising that they would do what ever it takes to prevent people from sharing content that they didn't pay for.

  • I moved the project files and now I can't get them back into iMovie 11

    I was working on a project but I ran out of disk space before I could finish it. Now, for this very purpose, I have an external hard drive with plenty of space on it. So I tried moving the folder with all my project files onto the external hd, and now iMovie can't find my project anymore. With iMovie '06 it was as simple as hitting "save as" and saving the project to the external hd, but I guess that's not complicated enough for the new version. Now I can't get into my project. I even try clicking on the actual project file, and it goes to iMovie as if the project was about to open, but nothing happens. So I fear I wasted a lot of time working on that project only to have to start all over because I ran out of disk space.
    Someone please tell me there's a way to get the project files open again. Thanks

    that is a simple one and should be a routine after purchasing a new drive (in a Mac-only environment!):
    • on your Mac, Apps/Utilities you'll find Disk 'Utility'
    • on the left lane, you'll notice your connected hard drive(s)
    • select it, click on the 'erase' tab
