Cannot place file?

I've done a lot of work on a logo and I'm trying to use the benefits of placing a file, rather than embedding it so any updates to it will be reflected over the different documents.
I've attached a video, I used same method as many times before yet the file is not showing.
Any ideas?

Sorry Kurt, here is logo https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bz6J5lAem4LyQU1IbjNFVHd0ZXM/edit?usp=sharinghttps://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bz6J5lAem4LyQU1IbjNFVHd0ZXM/edit?usp=sharinghttp:// and here is letterhead https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bz6J5lAem4LyQU1IbjNFVHd0ZXM/edit?usp=sharinghttp:// Many thanks

Cannot place file in sidebar of Mac OS X Lion

in Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.x) I was able to place a file on the sidebar and when I clicked on it, it would open. Mac OS X Lion does not allow placing a file ( a .doc file, for example) in the sidebar. I know I need to convert an alias to a certain type of alias that works with Lion (and Unix), but I cannot find the instructions in the "Communities" any more. Thanks for any help.

I found this answer elsewhere in the communities. Works fine.
It is possible to place files in the Sidebar under Lion, but you can't just drag-drop them there like you used to be able to. To place a file in the Sidebar:
1. In a Finder window, navigate to the file you wish to place in the Sidebar and select it.
2. From Finder menubar select Finder > File > Add to Sidebar, or press Command-T. The file will be placed in the Sidebar, where you can click-drag it up and down to locate it as you wish.
Thank Richard, who posted this.

Cannot place files on certain desktop areas

Anyone noticed that you can't place your files on certain areas on the desktop? In my case, I can't put files on the first column on the left. I originally have some files there, but when I move them away from their spot, i can't move them back.

Checked your Finder > View Menu > Sort by?
You edited.... OK maybe bad Finder prefs.
Go to Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences and trash these two files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart.(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

Cannot place photoshop PSD file

When I try to place a PSD file into Muse I get the following message:
Cannot place file named 'logo.psd'.
Image was saved with Compatibility Mode turned off. Try re-saving in Photoshop with Compatibility Mode enabled before importing.
I'm using a fresh install of Photoshop CS5 with latest updates. When I save my file I get the compatibility mode confirmation box and the option is checked to enable compatibility mode. This happens in 32 and 64 bit versions. If I create a new image and save it I seem to be able to place it in Muse, the problem seems to only be with PSD files originally created on another computer.

Bearfaced,
Not sure how to fix this exact issue, but as a workaround you could always:
Open the .psd in Photoshop
Save as another file type (i.e .png)
Within Muse, File, place the .png
Should give the same result unless I'm missing something, hope this helps

I cannot place or drag and drop AI files in Muse CC...

Hello,
I cannot place AI files into Muse CC, I have tried saving my AI files in different versions with no succes.
I also cannot drag AI files from the desktop into Muse CC.
JPGs, PNGs, etc. work as they should.
I have also tried AI EPS and PDF files with no luck.
Please help.
Thank you,
Gene

From what I understand Muse CC is supposed to convert vector files to work inside web browsers.
I had Muse on a PC a while back, and that fuction worked flawless. But now on my Mac it's not working.
It saves alot of time not having to convert files, especialy if the program is supposed to do that for you.
Thanks for the comment.

Suddenly cannot place image or resize file without losing resolution quality. Is this a bug?

I have CS3 and have been using Photoshop for several years. Today I randomly encountered a problem I have never had before.
I created a new file, 468 x 60 pixels with a resolution of 200. I then placed a file of a 4.95MB photo in this file. The size of the photo is quite large (resolution also 200) and I should have had to resize it way down to fit in small 468 x 60 space I had.
Instead, it placed the photo as a much smaller image, almost like a thumbnail of the original. When I went to resize the photo to make it larger, the resolution was terrible.
So then I went to the original file of the photo, copied it, went back to the 468 x 60 file and pasted it. It pasted it as the true size, but when I decreased the size, the resolution went bad. How does that even make sense?
So then I went back to the original file of the photo again and resized it down from there. The resolution went downhill again!
I have tried this with multiple other photos and file sizes and dimensions. I cannot place any large photo file and keep its accurate dimensions/resolutions. I also cannot resize any photo down without losing pixel quality.
The only thing weird that showed up right at the beginning of this whole process was that the pixel aspect ratio window kept popping up even before I'd open a file (it has been set to square).
I have reset all PS preferences through ctrl-alt-shift. I have gone through the Adobe update process. I have done disk clean-up and cleared off nearly 10GB of room on my hard drive. I have restarted over and over. I have also tried this process in Illustrator and had no problems.
Is this a bug? A memory problem? Never have I run into this issue before and I feel like I'm going crazy!

You could make the top layer active and then Cmd-Shift-Option-E
(stamp visible).
Do the trim and crop and then delete the top layer afterwords.

Cannot place smart object because the parser module cannot parse the file

Some of my images are saved in Ai for use in my Adobe Ps, but a few of them now give me an error when I try to replace
a smart object with a saved image from Ai. I get an error message instead that says "cannot place smart object because the
parser module cannot parse the file", I have no idea what this means or why it only happens to some images and not all.
I save everything in the same format and load it into the smart object the same way but some do not work. If anyone
knows the solution please help me!!
Thank you in advance!
Leila

As it says: the AI file is not readable.

"Cannot place this file - ??? 28962-ALDCL6RC.RSL" error message

Using PM 6.5 in Classic mode on Mac (OS 10.4.11). I have an existing pagemaker document that contains an EPS file that I need to change. When I try to update link to new EPS file or place it, I get the "cannot place this file" message. I am creating EPS in Illustrator 6.0 (also in Classic mode.) I have tried to place EPS file in a new Pagemaker document and get the same message. This used to work. I would really appreciate any help.

I seem to recall that PageMaker wasn't a good friend of EPS files, but I could be wrong after so many years not using it. I would try with TIFFs, just in case.

I cannot drag file over Dock and place into one of more opened windows - i.e. Mail

I cannot drag file over Dock, i.e. MAIL, wait a second, choose one of 2 windows - MAIL APP or NEW MAIL and place this file into opened New Mail. Normally I will wait until appear 2 windows with Mail app and New mail and choose NewMail and place the file into the new mail. This does not work for now and I have no idea why... Now it will Create only NewMail with this file attachment.
I tried:
1. Other Existing USER account
2. Restart with SHIFT - SafeMode
3. Reset PRAM
4. Delete com.apple.dock.plist and restart with default dock.list
5. It does not work on touchpad on my MacbookAir and with external mouse Logitech MX Revolution too
6. I have no plugins in MAIL APP

Create an album and drag them into the album. Then you can easily select all of them in the album and email.

Cannot drug files on my desktop. I get a white "stop sign" and the file jumps back to its original place.

Thank you very much for your reply. I did what you advised command-I and at the bottom where it says Sharing and Permissions I am listed and "everyone" to read and write. I see no place to change anything to unlock the desktop to move the files around. Could you help some more?

Cannot delete file Windows2Local/Components/{multiple}.settings

Every time I shutdown JSE it shows a couple of ugly messages saying:
"Cannot delete file Windows2Local/Components/classes.settings in C:\Documents and Settings\Joost\.jstudio\Ent8\config"
"Cannot delete file Windows2Local/Components/sources.settings in C:\Documents and Settings\Joost\.jstudio\Ent8\config"

"Cannot delete file Windows2Local/Components/threads.settings in C:\Documents and Settings\Joost\.jstudio\Ent8\config"
Assuming that JSE had some problems to access my profile (oh, how I *hate* Windows...) I wanted to change the JSE working directory to C:\Projects\Java Studio Enterprise, but I can't find the place within the Tools|Options where I can set that. Help!
Regards,

Thanks for the reply. I added the -userdir option, and now it complains:
"Cannot delete file Windows2Local/Components/ComponentPalette.settings" in C:\Projects\Java Studio Enterprise\config"
"Cannot delete file Windows2Local/Components/CollaborationExplorer.settings" in C:\Projects\Java Studio Enterprise\config"
Hmmm, it seems to me that - although the number of error messages has been reduced - JSE is still not very happy about something. It would be nice if it was a bit more precise in its problem description.

Plug-ins - "Cannot open File"

I have received a file from overseas which looks like the CS5 indesign icon, but which I cannot open through my CS5 indesign software. The message SHAREDCONTENT.RPLN first appears and then after clicking OK to open anyway, Cannot Open File appears with a list of missing plug-ins. The message reads: Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Indesign. I have not been able to find these plug-ins online and I'm not financially able to upgrade just yet! Any ideas anyone?

Another alternative that you can use, is ask for the IDML version of the document along with the assets like images and fonts used in the original document. You can open IDML version of the document in CS4, CS5, CS5.5 AND CS6 versions of InDesign.
Once open just relink the images sent as assets to you and place the fonts in the required folder and you are all set to use your doucment, save the document in the INDD format and you have your InDesign file. This will be an easy way for you as it will save you installation time for ID CS5.5 and also allow you to not upgrade and buy a license for it if you don't require it.

I have LR 4 and now I cannot open the software because I get this warning: light room cannot start because it cannot create files in the temp file location.. C:/windows/temp. How do I fix this? I have removed and downloaded LR and even used by disc and st

I have LR 4 and now I cannot open the software because I get this warning: "light room cannot start because it cannot create files in the temp file location. C:\windows\temp\". I think I need to have LR open in a different place but I have no idea how to do that. Any help is most appreciated.

Jim
Thank you for your prompt reply. Unfortunately I am not that tech oriented and
cannot easily find that folder. I did notice when I was booting up the LR software
that I could accept the site where LR usually is set up or choose a place. I am
thinking that the standard location for LR software is corrupted and that if I
chose a different place it would work. I say this because whether I use my
original disc or download from adobe I get the same warning. I have 100GB of
memory on the hard drive and I have cleaned the computer with Mcaffee and free
software. What should I do next? I can't use this software and I doubt LR 5
would open up with my current problem.

"cannot find file" after formatting and moving!!

Wanted to have iTunes library included in Time Capsule backup. So had to reformat external hardrives where all my songs are from Windows do OS. Copied everything on other HD, reformatted HD with OS, copied back all songs. HD still has same name "MUSIC", but iTunes cannot find files.
Changed in iTunes preferences the location of files to ensure it searches in the right place AND also replaced with text editor in "iTunes Music Library.xml" file all links with new address of HD (now after reformatting to OS I found it to be slightly different despite still same name).
But iTunes still cannot find the files. Everything is the same as before, HD name, directory structure, file names, etc. ONLY difference is it all is on "OS formatted" drive. Don't want to lose ratings and playlists of over 15,000 songs....is there still a solution?

The moment I "drag out" the Tunes Library File, then there is nothing left there, and when I open iTunes it is empty.
That's as expected. That file is the database iTunes uses that keeps track of everything, so when you then launch iTunes, it's starting from scratch.
I can import the Playlists from the XML and they do appear, but still no songs, all is empty. If I try to reimport from the new location, then they "do not fit into the playlists", meaning ratings etc. are lost.
Then you apparently didn't get the XML file edited properly; it's not easy to do.
Why does the simple location function in iTunes Preferences not work?
It does, when used as designed. The preference is where new additions (imports & purchases) will be stored. It does not change the location for existing files.
Put the original library file back. Then launch iTunes, Get Info on a representative track, and look at the path to where it thinks the files should be and compare that to the actual path. Any difference at all will break things. If there are differences (drive name slightly different, any difference in folder names/structure, etc.; letter case counts), try correcting them in Finder and see if that gets things working again. If not, then you'll have to use the Add to Library command to get back your tracks which will lose all your ratings, etc.
Where does iTunes save the links to the original files so it can simply be changed?
In the iTunes Library file, which cannot be manually edited.
