Can`t manage my custom workspaces in CS5 Ai after importing CS4 workspaces

Here is the folder I pasted my workspaces in from CS4
on XP to Ai CS5 on WIN7
then a screenshot of what my CS5 Ai workspace drop down list looks like...
and last a screen shot of the manage workspace dialogue box...
When  I choose manage workspaces from that workspace list in Ai, it doesnt allow me to move  my custom workspaces to the top of the list where the two topmost  workspaces are ?

Thanks for helping Larry,
I`m not sure how to follow what their saying, trashing or resetting prefs resets prefs for Ai cs4 yes?
I didnt explain myself correctly actually
i`m trying to get my CS5 prefs copied from XP to be manageable on CS5 for windows 7.
Originally I copy pasted my workspaces from Ai cs4 on XP to Ai CS5 on XP which worked fine,
then from there to Ai CS5 on Win7 into I believe the correct folder below, presets/workspaces, so it intermingled with the default CS5 workspace settings.
However on win7 they show up in the workspaces menu allright in mixed order, but not in the personal custom sets which are supposed to appear separately at the top of the workspaces drop down menu..
the result being when I choose "manage workspaces" I only get the following..not all my custom workspaces are showing..

  • Importing CS4 Workspace into CS5?

    In AE CS5, is there any way to use a workspace I created in CS4? In PPro, all I had to do was open a CS4 project in CS5 with the "Import Workspace from Projects" enabled and the old workspace is now available. Is there something similar in AE or do I have to recreate my workspaces from scratch?

    I haven't tried this, but it should work.(I'm typing this on a computer that doesn't have both versions installed, but I'll test this soon.)
    The workspaces are stored in a set of preferences files. You should be able to copy them from the CS4 (9.0) directory to the CS5 (10.0) directory.
    As with all of the preferences, these files are here:
    (Mac OS) <drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After  Effects/10.0
    (Windows) <drive>\AppData\Roaming\<username>\Adobe\After Effects\10.0
    If this doesn't work, there's little risk, because you can always just delete the files in the preferences folder and restart After Effects, and it will recreate the default preferences, including the workspaces.

  • Can you create the Title effect in Daybreakers, adobe after effects cs4,,please take this one as cha

    im currently studying Adobe After Effects CS4, and i found the title of DAYBREAKER(2009)movie a very interesting effect to create, i hope you can give me tutorials on how to do that..please! more power, NOTE: im using adobe after effects cs4

    From what I saw on the trailer for this film the titles are a modified version of George Peolvoy's Flowing Title tutorial posted on Creative Cow about 10 years ago. You'll find the tutorial here.
    The glass effect on the type can be duplicated using layer effects in Photoshop and / or then applying those layer effects to your type layer directly in AE. You'll find a bunch of those tutorials by doing a simple Google search for Glass Text Photoshop.
    There is no one click, one plug-in solution, but if you integrate the layer effects, a displacement map, some compound blur, and a little position keyframing + motion blur you should be able to duplicate the effect exactly. George's tutorial should get you started. If I remember right the project files were for AE 4.1 so they probably won't open in CS4.
    Good luck

  • How can I find my custom panel in CS5 using java script

    -I made an empty panel using Adobe Configurator 2 and then exported it to /Panels folder.
    -My custom panel is now in photoshop and works.
    -I added a simple code to onPanelInit():
    function onPanelInit()
        var myWindow = new Window ("dialog");
        var myMessage = myWindow.add ("statictext");
        myMessage.text = "Hello, world!";
        myWindow.show ( );
    so far so good.
    Now instead of creating a new window like I did above, I want to use the new custom panel and add a text to it.
    The problem is, how do I do that in java? Where can I find the panel that I should assign the text to?
    I know that you can add the text in Configurator, or you can edit the .xml file and add the button there, but my
    plan is to create a panel where i can add and remove buttons dynamically and that's why I have to do that in java.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Petri J

    Use Runtime.exec() to run a OS specific command which retrieves OS specific info.
    Or use JNI to access a OS specific API which returns the info you want.

  • [SOLVED] Can Pacman Manage My Custom Packages

    I am going to make a custom build of MPlayer because I want it patched to take advantage of the Compiz Video plugin.  I think I might enable a couple other options that are disabled as well.  The thing I'm not sure of is how pacman will react to my package.  I know I can install it with pacman, but when a new official MPlayer package is released in the repos, will it update it and override my custom package?  If so, I thought it might help if I changed the package name, but then I thought that might mess up dependency tracking.  For instance, if I make a custom package of which other packages rely on, will those other packages be able to see mine and list the dependency as fulfilled?
    Basically I want a way for my system to see my custom package as something that can fulfill dependencies for other official packages that might rely on that particular program.  But at the same time I don't want it overridden when a new official package comes out since it likely won't contain the options I want enabled.  If it would give a message indicating a new version is available but not install it, that would really help.  Is this possible, and what would be the best way to handle this?

  • Can I trash a file from the hard drive after importing into iMovie HD 6?

    I created some DV video files using MPEG Streamclip. I imported them into iMovie HD 6. Can I now put those DV files in the trash and empty the trash, to free up disk space, and still be able to do whatever I want with them in iMovie HD 6?

    Yes, if you don't have another drive to store them on.

  • Can I merge/delete clip duplicates in project window after importing sequences?

    hi, I have to import several sequences from another premiere pro project. Some of them rely on the same material - but premiere imports for each sequence all clips in separate folders. So I tried to delete the duplicates but premiere told me it's needed for a sequence. How can I tell premiere that these clips are the same? I have already 3000 clips in the project without the duplicates and it's getting confusing with another couple hundreds of duplicate clips flying around.
    Thanks for your help,
    Gertrud
    Premiere Pro CC 7.2.1 on Win7

    I don't know of any way to clean up this project, but in the future, don't import the project, just import the sequence.  That will not create duplicates.

  • Can InCopy CS5 save to a CS4 file type

    I'm managing an e-learning project that requires a group of writers to use InCopy.  Everyone including our client is using IC CS4 but one of my writers who has been unable to find anything other than the latest version.  If she uses the CS5 version is there a way to save as to a CS4 compatible file that I can send to the client?  I know, for example, that Flash CS4 can save to a CS3 file format.  Thanks.

    I agree with Bob. The ICML format itself (InCopy native format) is essentially the same in CS5 as it was in CS4. So InCopy CS4 can open ICML files created in InCopy CS5. And InDesign CS4 can place InCopy CS5 ICML files, as far as I can tell. But it's *always* better to use the same version of ID and IC.
    One thing to keep in mind is that in InCopy CS5, the default font on both platforms is Minion Pro, not Times. This means the definition of the [Basic Paragraph] style is different. So if you're using styles, I would stay away from using any of the basic styles (including Table/Cell), and make sure your custom styles aren't based on them either.

  • Delete CS5.5 after CS.6 is installed?

    Can I delete a trial version of CS5.5 after a purchased version of CS.6 is installed seccessfully?

    You can, but perhaps you shouldn't - it will mess up file associations and a few otehr things. Therfore uninstall it befgore installing CS6. that aside you might still consider keeping CS5.5 around in case some nasty bug in CS6 ruins your day...

  • Can't save any custom workspaces AE CS6? (recently upgraded to OSX 10.9 rMBP)

    Hello -
    since transferring my CS6 across to my new laptop running 10.9 -
    I can't save any custom workspaces... it's driving me crazy having to move everything around every time i restart AE.
    - I arrange the workspace and save it as a custom name - this appears in the menu.
    *However* - upon restart of AE - this custom name is no longer there, and the workspace is once again, an old workspace I had, with windows everywhere.
    - I can reset STANDARD workspace - but even then - when I change to another workspace, then change back to STANDARD again, it reverts to the older, messsy version of standard workspace i had...
    so there's some issue with saving for me....
    - I checked 'get info' to see that my workspace related preferences in the library folder had read/write access and even changed that to everyone has access...
    After doing this, I got this error below, when resetting STANDARD workspace, saving project, then switching to another workspace - and then switchng back to STANDARD...
    it still brought up the messy workspace version, not my newer reset version, and gave this message:
    "After Effectswarning: Error parsing properties list from file ".......Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/11.0/ModifiedWorkspaces/UserWorkspace11.xml"
    (I"ve also repaired permissions with Disk Utility ( there were a lot needing repair, but none were explicitly adobe, and didn't solve problem on laptop reboot )
    I've been trying to find a solution online, without success so far...
    Any advice greatly appreciated...
    (And I wonder what this problem might have wider ramifications for my version of AE? )
    thanks!

    I'm having this same problem and yet, I did not migrate my software from one computer to another.
    I downloaded AE CC 2014 off of Adobe's installer.
    I can't get my workspace to be remembered at all. I can make different workspaces, naming each one. But when AE restarts they are all gone.
    Any one else with this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with re

    Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with reddish cast and loss of detail
    System: Windows 7
    Adobe CS5
    Printer: Epson Stylus Photo 1400
    Paper: Inkjet matte presentation paper with slight luster
    Installed latest patch for Adobe CS5
    Epson driver up to date
    After reading solutions online and trying them for my settings for 2 days I am still unable to print what I am seeing on my screen in Adobe CS5. I calibrated my monitor, but am not sure once calibration is saved if I somehow use this setting in Photoshop’s color management.
    The files I am printing are photographs of dogs with lots of detail  I digitally painted with my Wacom tablet in Photoshop CS5 and then printed with Epson Stylus 1400 on inkjet paper 20lb with slight luster.
    My Printed images lose a lot of the detail & come out way to dark with a reddish cast and loss of detail when I used these settings in the printing window:
    Color Handling: Photoshop manages color, Color management -ICM, OFF no color adjustment.
    When I change to these settings in printer window: Color Handling:  Printer manages color.  Color management- Color Controls, 1.8 Gamma and choose Epson Standard it prints lighter, but with reddish cast and very little detail and this is the best setting I have used so far.
    Based on what I have read on line, I think the issue is mainly to do with what controls are set in the Photoshop Color Settings window and the Epson Printer preferences. I have screen images attached of these windows and would appreciate knowing what you recommend I enter for each choice.
    Also I am confused as to what ICM color management system to use with this printer and CS5:
    What is the best ICM to use with PS CS5 & the Epson 1400 printer? Should I use the same ICM for both?
    Do I embed the ICM I choose into the new files I create? 
    Do I view all files in the CS5 workspace in this default ICM?
    Do I set my monitor setting to the same ICM?
    If new file opens in CS5 workspace and it has a different embedded profile than my workspace, do I convert it?
    Do I set my printer, Monitor and PS CS5 color settings to the same ICM?
    Is using the same ICM for all devices what is called a consistent workflow?
    I appreciate any and all advice that can be sent my way on this complicated issue. Thank you in advance for your time and kind help.

    It may be possible to figure out by watching a Dr.Brown video on the subject of color printing. Adobe tv
    I hope this may help...............

  • How can HelpDesk manage users in multiple Organizations in OIM R2

    Hi All,
    I looking to satisfy a requirement for OIM 11g R2 where a helpdesk administrator can only manage users that belong to a particular institution. However, there are approximately 50% of users that belong to more than one institution, where helpdesk staff from each institution should be able to manage the user. Customer is currently
    doing this in Waveset by assigning users to orgs dynamically through rules which allows multiple virtual orgs. OIM unfortunately has no way to assign a user to multiple orgs, making OOTB authorization management very difficult.
    How can a administrators from different org manage same User. If that user belongs to different org?
    How to achieve this in OIM R2?
    Thanks
    Akshat

    Hi Adr,
    I know the OIM Authorization is around the Organization, and a user can present in only one org in OIM.
    I wanted to know, can we force the authorization based on Department/Institutions rather than Org. I am thinking in reagards of OES Authorization policies.
    OIM unfortunately has no way to assign a user to multiple orgs, making OOTB authorization management slightly difficult.
    I am looking to determine the best approach to accommodate this requirement. Due to the high number of users that reside within multiple institutions, leveraging organizations will not work. Asa far i know OES APM should be able to accommodate this, but could not find any solid guidance in the Oracle training or Oracle by Example documentation.
    Any thoughts?
