Can't resize after selecting object

For some reason I can no longer select an object and make it bigger or smaller with the squares on the bounding box. Any ideas as to why?

try to use transform (E) or scale tool (S)

On import, graphics resized after displaying object properties

Hello, my XML files contain many links to EPS files, such as:
<image href="mygraphic.eps" align="right" id="0B">
After importing the XML files, the graphics are sized correctly. They're exactly the size of the imported-by-reference graphic.
Some of the graphics resize if I display the object properties or simply save the file. For example, an EPS will resize itself 20%.
In one file that contains two images, only one might resize itself.
My read/write rules have no rules to resize a graphic on import.
What could I be missing?

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a try. But I'm not sure I can even read any temperatures from this old gpu. I ran sensors-detect and it found none.
Also, if it was a heat issue, why does it go away as soon as I restart the X server? Surely it would still be overheating. Maybe it's time to take this thing apart again and clean it out.

HT2639 Can you resize after cropping in IPhoto affecting only the area that was resized?

Hello, I have resized an area of a photograph that has people in it. I want to enlarge the photo to get a better image of the people and their faces. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Sally

As I am interested in preserving/enhancing the quality of the enlargement, does this require an additional app?
You cannot add information to an image, that is not there in the beginning, even with a more expensive application.
Try, to get as much as possible sharpness and definition into the cropped out section as possible, using iPhoto's adjustments in "Edit" mode. The most promising are the "Definition" slider (that will add clarity and definition, without adding too much contrast) and the "Sharpness" slider. Be careful with the "Contrast" slider. If the face was in the shadows, you could try the "Highlights" and "shadows" controls as well.

Remove colums/title in Select-Object result

Hi Experts,
Just want to ask on for example, I have this simple script like this:
Get-Process | Select-Object name,idName Id
AcPrfMgrSvc 2284
AcSvc 3160
armsvc 2316
If I want to return only the result without the "Title"
AcPrfMgrSvc 2284
AcSvc 3160
armsvc 2316
Is this something can be done through select object?
Thanks!

Resize only one object in selection, and other questions. InDesign CC

I recently changed from InDesign CS4 to CC. I'm having a few problems with the interface and can't figure them out.
1) This one is really annoying me: I select multiple items, like a picture and some text, to move them somewhere. I then want to maybe change the size of the text box, or crop the picture a little. What used to happen in CS4 was exactly what I wanted to happen: whichever item I clicked on to edit would be edited. In CC, it resizes everything selected! If I want to resize ALL the items, I'll group them. Is there an option to turn that off? I've looked through every menu I could find but didn't see anything that would refer to that.
2) In the same vein: When I select a couple items, like a text box on top of a burst or an ellipse or something, and I then want to edit some of the text. In CS4 I could double click and it would turn into the type tool and I could edit text. It still works the same in CC, but only if I have just the text box selected. If there's anything else selected, it just doesn't work.
3) I complained about this one when I changed from CS2 to CS4, but it's still a problem: When I print, and put in a particular page range, it prints those pages. Now, when I go back to print again, it has defaulted back to printing all pages. I'd really like to be able to hit CTRL-P then Enter, instead of using the mouse to select my page range again. Is there some option that I can change somewhere for that? It works fine in Print Booklet, and Export to PDF. It's only when I print normally this happens.
4) Every time I open the program, all my windows (Pages, Swatches, Stroke, etc...) are always minimized. It's annoying to have to open them every time. I couldn't find anywhere to change that either.
These are kind of minor inconveniences I guess, but it would be nice if I could change them. Other than these few things CC has been pretty good. I definitely like that it's 64 bit. I got out of memory errors a lot with CS4. Anyhow, thanks for taking the time to read my questions!

I have InDesign CS5.5 - and when I select more than 1 object I get a bounding box for all the items - it's impossible to resize just one item without affecting everything selected.

I really don't see this behaviour at all.

No - this is the way it works - annoying!
What's really frustrating is that it will remember the amount of copies you've input too! I would like that reset to 1 after I print 100 copies. All too often I've opened a file from last year to print a copy and hit Ctrl+P and then Return as the shortcuts - and I get 100 copies printed again!!!
4) Every time I open the program, all my windows (Pages, Swatches, Stroke, etc...) are always minimized. It's annoying to have to open them every time. I couldn't find anywhere to change that either.
Once you have the screen setup the way you like it go to Window>Workspaces and click "New Workspace"
Save as it something unique to you.
Everytime you open InDesign this should be the default panel settings.

They are minor for sure - and we all have niggly bits in InDesign that frustrate us.
But unfortunately this is a user-to-user forum so it's unlikely to be picked up by Adobe employees.
I suggest you put it in the feature request forums - http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign/indesign_feature_requests

Can not resize with the selection tool

can not resize with the selection tool

joc,
I believe you may have come across the Live Rectangle bug which is limited to the MAC versions starting with 10.7 and 10.8, but not 10.9 (Mavericks) or 10.10 (Yosemite). Hopefully, the bug will be fixed soon.
So a switch to Mavericks or Yosemite with a reinstallation might be the way to solve it here and now.
To get round it in each case, it is possible to Expand the Live Rectangles to get normal old fashioned rectangles, or to Pathfinder>Unite, or to use the Scale Tool or the Free Transform Tool.
A more permanent way round that is to create normal old fashioned rectangles, after running the free script created by Pawel, see this thread with download link:

How can I get a list view after selecting "see all"?

I just updated to iTunes 12. I've looked on the net for this but couldn't find anything on it.
Previously when I searched for something in the iTunes store I'd pick a certain category of media (podcasts, for example). It would give me the first few results and then I could select "see all." Then get a list view and sort it.
Now when I click on "see all" I get an album cover view. NOT a list view. And I have no way to sort the results. I usually sort by time.
What's odd is when I'm still on the initial page you get after making a search I *can* sort the results. But only the first 10.
Basically, I need a way to sort all of my search results by time. Either after selecting "see all" or having iTunes show many more than 10 results.
This was possible (and the default, I think) in previous versions. I've looked through every menu and I don't see a way to turn this functionality back on.
Thanks.

Hi,
There is no such PowerShell command can achiev this. Maybe you can use a script to get the user name with folder redirection enabled. However, I am not familiar with writing script, and it would be better for you to ask in script forum below for professional

Hello, thank you so much for your response! Here are some screenshots of my steps taken

Resizing selected objects

Ok, so I am trying to write a script that resizes an object that is selected. I have two objects selected, the one on top is a group item, the one below it is a rectangle. I am trying to resize the rectangle to the size of the group item on top of it with a little margin around it. Here is what I have so far.
var design = app.activeDocument.selection[0];
     var top=design.visibleBounds[1]+5*2;
     var left=design.visibleBounds[0]-5*2;
     var width=design.visibleBounds[2]-design.visibleBounds[0]+10*2;
     var height=design.visibleBounds[1]-design.visibleBounds[3]+10*2;
var background = app.activeDocument.selection[1];
background.position = (top, left, width, height);
The problem is the last line there. I'm not sure how to manipulate the position/size of the selected object or if it is even possible I have searched for it and haven not found an answer. Thanks in advance!

position property expects an Array, with x and y values, in that order. As for the width and height properties, use them in separate statements
background.position = [left, top];
background.width = width;
background.height = height;

Can I resize a Quick Selected image so it fits when I cut and paste it on a different background.

Can I resize a Quick Selected image so it fits when I cut and paste it on a new background? I am trying to take a photo of someone and place it on a different background. The Quick Selected image is too big when I paste it on the background. You can only see a small portion of the persons head.

Open the photo, then go to Image>resize>image size. Read what the resolution is in px/in.
Get out of this screen. Then use one of the selection tools to select the person, go to Edit>copy to put it on the clipboard
Now, go to File>new>blank file. Enter width & height, and the same resolution value.
Go to Edit>paste. The person will be on a separate layer. Use the move tool to position, and, to resize with the corner handles, if necessary
Note: For printing, it is desirable to have the resolution in the 240-300px/in range. For web work, 72 px/in is ok

After selecting and deleting region, and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted region!
What am I doing wrong?
How exactly are you doing this?
When I cut out a part of an audio region, then drag the remaining parts together, so they are touching, the track will skip the cut out section when playing the file. Also, if I select the remaining parts of the region and use the command "Edit > join regions". This will create a new audio file with the cut out part deleted.
You should see this prompt, when you are joining the regions:
