  • Trial version of Illustrator CC 2014 takes over my CS6 old version and forces me to use CC 2014 on launch. How to fix?

    Trial version of Illustrator CC 2014 takes over my CS6 old version and forces me to use CC 2014 on launch. How to fix? FIle> get info>won't let me choose >Open this file with CS6. Forces me to use CC 2014 Illustrator which I don't want because I am doing client work in CS6 that I own and I do not have time to try out the CC version.
    I also do not like the black interface in illustrator as I cannot even see the layer icon at the bottom. I won't want to buy it if this is all that's offered.

    You can change the UI brightness in the prefs. Otherwise I'm not clear what your issue is. Handling file associations are operating system basics and you can look them up on a simple web search and from drag&drop onto the launchpad/ dock icon for CS6 to opening the files directly from within AI there sure are enough alternatives, don't you think?

  • Can't move one anchorpoint to another anchorpoint accurately anymore in Illustrator CC 2014. No problems in former versions. Any idea?

    When I want to put an anchorpoint of one object on top of an anchorpoint of another object it jumps off the position I would like to put it. Other versions never had this issue! I need to work very accurately for my designs! Illustrator CC 2014 has this problem.
    Snap to grid, smart guides, etc putting on or off, doesn't help...........
    I pay monthly quite an amount of money for Illustrator. I don't want to waiste any working time on solving problems occuring after updating. I have no need of new features "to fluff up Illustrator" , I need an efficient programm to work with!
    Sorry for being so annoyed, but las Friday I chatted with Illustrator helpdesk, which also cost me a few hours of my working time! I need to work...not to keep spending time on tutorials, solving new problems and finding things out! That is not what I pay for...sorry Adobe!

    jolieu,
    In cases like this, the first guess is Align to Pixel Grid.
    You may select everything and then untick Align to Pixel Grid in the Transform pallete, and also untick Align New Objects to Pixel Grid in the flyout options.
    You may avoid document types with that as default (RGB for web and the like) or change the default for such documents.

  • Can't create a new illustration. Problems occurred while saving the print file.

    I can't open a new Illustrator file. It sends me this error: Can't create a new illustration. Problems occurred while saving the print file. ID:-1
    I opened a previous document created in CC, but it will not allow me to copy and paste items from one doc to another.
    I have rebooted with no avail.
    System:
    Adobe Creative Cloud CC
    Mac Book Pro 2012
    2.6 GHz Intel Core i7
    8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    Is a printer connected? Is it turned ON? Is the driver up to date?
    Illustrator checks this every time and also writes information on the printer into the file.

  • Just updated CC 2014, Photoshop launches with message to run Photoshop Installer: where is this?

    On updating Photoshop CC 2014 and launching I get a dialog, "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for sunning Photoshop, are missing. Please run the Photoshop installer and reinstall Photoshop."
    Where is Photoshop Installer?
    This update also wiped all my extensions without warning, not so cool Adobe.

    Sometimes uninstalling old versions can take out common files. I uninstalled CS4 only to get errors with CS6. I had to reinstall CS6 to get rid of the errors.
    In any case you may want to keep/install CC for a while. The extensions technology has changed and what ran in CC, won't in CC 2014.
    If you depend on your legacy extensions, at least you want to hold on to CC until they are updated. And of course if any glitches show up in 2014.2 and future updates, you may want CC as a backup until it's corrected.
    I may have missed some details, so these links should help you.

    Help ma boab did you migrate over your applications and settings from your old computer?  It does appear the installer was unable to create the Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder since your current User account did not have sufficient access to either modify they Applications or Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder if it already exists.
    If you migrated/copied any files or applications from your old computer then I would recommend running the uninstaller from the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once you have uninstalled please run the CC Cleaner Tool prior to reinstalling Photoshop CS5.  Please see Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html for information on how to use the CC Cleaner Tool.

  • Sb x-fi xtreme audio console launcher problems on windows 7 32bit

    Asb x-fi xtreme audio console launcher problems on windows 7 32bit'sI recently installed windows 7, because I was tired from Windows XP, but unfortunately after installing all the drivers for my hardware I realized my 5. isn't working quite as expected.
    My first problem was, that the Crystalizer didn't work, after installing tons of different software, found on creative labs forums the crystalizer started working.
    Then I realized that the CMSS-3D wasn't (and still isn't working). How do I fix that ? I've tried numerous ways but nothing happens, while in windows XP everything worked fine after installing the drivers.
    I also miss some configuration options in the Creative Console Launcher, namely the check boxes:
    ?"Automatically enable headphone settings" and "Automatically mute speakers".
    Where the hell did they go?! I use them, I need them. How do I get them back? Is XP somehow privileged than 7? Isn't it supposed to be the opposite?
    I also can't change the speaker configuration - it's stays 5. whatever I do, and the drop-down menu with the choices is missing?! Auto-detect option doesn't work, and if it did worked - I don't need it.

    To : woj2322, You may need to download and install the Dell Notebook System Software version 5.0.5. This installs patch fixes to solve the PCI ExpressCard device not work correctly. This is only for the DELL Inspiron 520 Notebook (See Below). Microsoft patch fix info below also. Also, I see there's other people that are having the same issue, maybe you to need to download and install the patch fix for your notebook's on dell's website. It's called "Dell Notebook System Software" under "System Utilities"

  • CS3 Illustrator crashing problem

    Hello all,
    Lately my illustrator cs3 has been crashing every time I try to save a new file. It is so frustrating after doing all the work and can't save. I work on Windows XP 2002 system. Can anyone help?
    Thanks so much!

    Hi Jacob, Just so you know, I was in a hurry and no way was able to buy an expensive product to do my artwork project. I couldn't find older TRIAL versions to download without 3rd party attached  programs & BS that could be bad to do.
    But, I need to go back on the forum to say that I rebooted to try one more time and it worked. Don't know why it didn't work the first time around because it was a fresh open of Illustrator, hadn't been working on it for a month then the first time didn't work.
    I don't have time to go back on the forum right now got to leave for work. You can mention you heard this from me if you want so that people aren't misinformed.
    thanks for replying

  • Acrobat Launch Problems

    Acrobat 9 will no longer launch.  What can I do to correct this?

    Windows 7
    I don't know of anything that changed.
    I tried to open a document I had just downloaded and nothing happened at 
    all.  Same thing when I tried to open the program itself
    I decided to restart my computer, and after I did that, it is now working 
    again.
    It has done this on several occasions before and once I had to download 
    some sort of patch or update to get it going again.
    Thank you for the reply!

  • I uninstalled itunes because I was having launch problems. Now when I try to re install itunes, I click on download and it goes right to thank you page and NO itunes anywhere.

    I uninstalled itunes because I was having launch problems. Now when I try to re install itunes, I hit the download button and it takes me to the thank you page but there is no itunes on my pc.

    Hey Davidl678,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are unable to download the purchases from your purchase history, because iTunes believes the songs to be in your library. It may be necessary to delete the items from your library, then re-download from your purchase history. Before doing so, you may want to take note of which song are available for re-download:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Delete songs, playlists, or other items
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12359
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

    Thanks,

  • Illustrator CC 2014.1.1 problems

    Since I did download the new update CC 2014 I have had few annoying problems. I have HP Compaq Pro 6300 MT, Win 7 Prof (Service pack 1), Intel Core i5-3470 CPU 3.20GHz, RAM 20 Gt, 64-bit.
    Copy / paste with ctrl+c and ctrl+v:
    Does not mostly work. Only when I copy text or plain vector graphics, small ones. If I try to copy jgp/tiff file or whole artwork on artboard, it starts run "not responding"....and if it stops and I move the mouse, it will start again "not responding". Have to close the program and start again.
    Copy / paste with edit/copy:
    Does not always work either. See above.
    Opening/placing file/s from network into Illustrator: When choosing the needed files, the system freezes. After a while the needed files may show as chosen.
    Crashing: Sometimes when I close a screen in Illustrator.... it crashes the whole Illustrator.
    So.... is this something to with Windows, my computer not "powerfull" enough.... or is it just me.....?    
    Have a happy workday....!! 

    Porkkana,
    Concerning files from network, it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky (for a while), but the chances of file corruption and other unpleasantnesses are immensely greater when you use anything but the harddisk, and it is better to be safe than sorry.
    In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/illustrator-support-networks-removable-media.html
    Concerning the other issues, you may try the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Illustrator cc 2014 grid snap problem

    Since Updating to the whole cc2014 suite last week, grid snapping in Illustrator has been terrible. Literally Nothing really snaps to the grid.
    Does anyone share this problem? Anyone has a solution to this?
    And Yes, i've turned off 'align to pixel grid'.
    I'm working on a mac with OSX 10.9.3 running.
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm having the same exact issue. Before I upgraded to Illustrator CC 2014 I was using Illustrator CS6 and resizing a rectangle that's *off* the pixel grid would snap it to the pixel grid correctly. The snapping to pixel grid is the main reason I use Illustrator for web UI design. There were some bugs in CS6, like if the artboard was not snapped to the pixel grid then all the elements on the page would be off the pixel grid at the same distance that the artboard was off. That was an easy fix - just realign the artboard to the pixel grid and all the rectangle objects would snap to the grid when resized. But with Illustrator CC 2014 nothing snaps to the pixel grid.
    HOW TO REPRODUCE:
    Create a new document.
    Go to Pixel Preview.
    Zoom in to pixel level.
    Drag a rectangle on the screen.
    As you can see - IT IS snapped to the pixel grid (it happens only on creation).
    Grab the free transform anchor point and drag it up and to the right.
    As you can see - IT IS NOT snapped to the pixel grid.
    Try to drag the corner to free transform it to snap to the pixel grid. It doesn't work.
    Try to snap it to the pixel grid - it doesn't snap.
    Try to snap it to the pixel grid - it doesn't snap.
    Profit? No.
    SCREENCAST:
    http://quick.as/y0rwhymv
    GIF:
    As you can see it's very hard to snap to pixel. And even when it looks like it snaps, it actually is not on the pixel grid line.

    IMAGES:
    Dragging new rectangle:

    Resize it using free transform - gets off the pixel grid.
    2drag.png
    Continue to try to snap it back to the pixel grid using the transform tool, but still doesn't work:
    3drag.png
    Rinse and repeat. Still really bad. Snapping to pixel doesn't work anymore!
    4drag-but-nothing.png
    As you can see there is no way of snapping a rectangle back to the pixel grid!! Here are my settings:
    5settings.png
    Illustrator team - PLEASE FIX THIS BUG! I love using Illustrator for web design and UI mockups, but this bug makes it almost useless. There's no way to create pixel perfect designs with this bug. I hope all the information I provided above helps pinpoint the bug. Thanks!

  • How do I repair Illustrator CS launch problem?

    At the point of launching Illustrator, where it reads "Initializing CMS" on screen, it simply hangs up and never completes launching. This happens whether I try to launch CS6, CS5 or CS4. I've tried using the Disk Utility to Repair Permisssions. I've also deleted preferences, but I'm still having the same issue.
