Can't merge 3  selected paths in pathfinder with Illustrator CS4 Mac OSX

I have 3 stroked circles that I would like to merge with pathfinder.  Illustrator makes the images dissappear instead of merging them.  Is this a bug?  Is there a workaround?
Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't merge accounts.
    You can however share or import content from another library/account using homesharing.

    How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11?

    Thanks for your reply, Jim.  I imported a CD that I had burned previously with the 2 tracks of sound effects that I had downloaded from the internet (MP3 files), but I did not see an option to join the tracks when I imported the CD.  In the upper right corner there were three buttons: Options, CD Info, and Import CD.  When I click on Options, the drop-down menu has two choices: "Get Track Names"  and "Submit CD Track Names".   I cannot find an option to Join Tracks.  Help!

    Where can I download Java version 1.6.0_26-b03-384 for Mac OSX 10.6.8, please? I cannot find it anywhere on the internet and i need it because Firefox is complaing that the plug-in is inactive which is BS.

    Since August 2012 updates for Java (and especially Java Runtime Environment, which is what you actually need) must now be downloaded direct from Oracle:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1637588.h tml
    (which is for Java 7)
    Further information here:

    The recently discovered zero-day flaw in Java 7 is so serious that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has warned users to disable or uninstall it, and Apple has disabled the Java 7 plugin on Macs through its OS X anti-malware system, in order to protect users from a potentially serious security issue.
    You should disable Java (if not already done) until either the US Department of Homeland Security, or Oracle, declare it safe and Apple restore the facility. Oracle have released an update said to fix the security flaw, available from here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1880261.h tml
    Javascript should not be disabled (it has nothing to do with Java).

    I tightened all HD screws and it didn't help. With the machine running and side of the case off, I physically stopped both the video card fan and the front case fan with my finger for a couple seconds and the noise continued. I also took all hard drives out one by one and rebooted each time. Again, the noise continued until I took out the Mac HD in Bay 1, rebooted, and I had a very quiet, silent machine. The issue is the hard drive in bay 1 that shipped with the computer, it's without a doubt causing the hum/woosh sound. I still need to know if I can safely swap the Mac HD from bay 1 to bay 4 without any issues to the operating system. I would like to try that to see if it dampens the noise but I also want to make sure this swap won't screw up my machine at all.

    Hi Robert and welcome to Apple Discussions,
    There are adapters available that convert micro cards into fullsize ones.
    You will also need a USB card reader if you do not have one.
    Good luck,

    Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

  • How can I download a driver for a Brother printer HL2270DW for Mac OSX 10.9.1?

    I recently purchased a Brother printer HL2270DW and am running Mac OSX 10.9.1.  The brother website has a download available, but in the process of adding the printer I get the error message that "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."  Any ideas?

    Just found a solution which involves resetting the printer settings:
    To Reset the Printer Setting:
    1) Open "System Preferences"
    2) Select the "Print & Scan" pane
    3) Right click (or control click) anywhere in the "Printers" window (in the white space below any of your existing printers)
    4) Select "Reset Printing System..."
    That will reset the printing settings, and should happen immediately. You'll know if it worked because any existing printers you had previously set up will disappear from your printers list. Once the system has been reset, click on the "Add printer" button and add the printer that you're trying to add.
    As any other printers you had previously added are deleted you'll have to add them again.
    Hope that helps

  • User can't open a PDF created with Illustrator CS4

    I'm creating a PDF in Illustrator CS4, and I save it on a server where the user can get it. User is not able to open the file, it says acces denied. When I email that same file to several users, they can open it without a problem. I have checked that there's no restrictions on accessibility on the folder or the file. I wonder if it has to do with windows user permissions...
    Our IT guy couldn't find any problem ....
    Any clue?

    Try saving locally and copying to the server.

  • How can you create a swatch from a jpeg in Illustrator CS4?

    I am trying to create a jpeg image into a swatch in Illustrator CS4. In previous versions you could simply drag the image into the swatches toolbar and it would convert it automatically. Now when I do that nothing happens. When I click on new swatch it creates a colour swatch instead of the actual image itself.

    When you say you would drag the image itself into the Swatch Palette and it would show the image itself? How would then use this swatch? Can you give an example of what you would apply a jpeg to as a swatch? The only palette that I can think of off the top of my head that you can drag a jpeg into and have the icon appear as the jpeg is the Symbols Palette. Is is possible that you were using the Symbols Palette in the past and not the Swatch Palette?

    I am using Mac OSX 10.6.8.

    No, iPhoto 9.6 requires Yosemite.
    You need to upgrade your system first.

  • Can Pagemaker 7.0.1 co-exist peacefully with Indesign cs4 on same hard drive?

    I have pm701 running just nicely here, using win xp. I am now ready to install idcs4, but pm701 must continue to perform properly for many months yet. (my logic being that the time will come one day when pm701 will not function properly anymore.. i.e. newer operating system... trying to be pro-active here, without shooting myself either)  Is there any issue/ conflict to anticipate? please and thanks

    As you're using Win XP rather than Vista or 7 then, unless I'm mistaken, PM7 should coexist quite happily with InDesign CS4 as with any other prog as it is installed in its own unique folder.
    Bear in mind that PM files can be opened by InDesign. The results are usually usable with either major or minor work needed depending on issues such as missing fonts, text formating, missing links and so on. As InDesign can do everything PM can do and more, you may just find yourself needing PM less and less!
