CC - Objects randomly change when resized, don't center correctly with align panel

I'm not sure how clear these photos are, but here's what's happening.
I make a compound object, then when I resize it, it moves anchors around. Note the corners on the 3rd "8" -- they're pinched together. This is happening on a lot of different object
Edit: There are no "snaps" enabled.
Here are some better examples

xHeight,
It sounds af if you are haunted by the Align to Pixel grid ghost.
You may select your object/everything and untick it in the Transform palette; and you may untick Align New Objects to Pixel Grid in the Options.

WHY do we get a %*# update every 2 weeks while the 1 really bad bug (fonts and sizes randomly changing when typing) persists????

Is there any way to STOP TB from sending updates every couple of weeks (and BTW this has slowed down/crashed TB increasingly in the past couple of months) UNTIL they fix this really irritating bug of randomly changing fonts and sizes when writing a mail? Outlook doesn't do this, Apple mail doesn't do this, so TB stop spamming and start addressing real problems for a change!!!!

It would be helpful perhaps to focus on "the real issue" of font size and compose, rather to digress into how vendors choose to deliver the product.
font issues arose in the past year. I forget exactly when. It is quite a bad problem. My recollection is it was a serializer change not done by Thunderbird developers, and that part of it was fixed in version 24. But I could be wrong.
Would you be willing to try version 31?

Random changes when changing setting for individual slide in a slideshow

I've used iPhoto for years and produced many slideshows. However, now when I try to use Ken Burns Effect for an individual slide, I click on the "start" area, adjust my slide, click on "end," and then iPhoto jumps to a totally different slide in the slideshow. When I go back to the slide I wanted to work with, nothing was saved, and the same random change of picture happens.
Actually, the Ken Burns Effect hasn't worked correctly on ANY slide I've tried.
Also, when I try to rearrange the slide order, the slides may stay in the correct order for a few seconds, but then a slide may jump four slides to the right (and again out of order). This behavior is strange and random. It is infuriating and I don't know what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
ALSO, when I export a slideshow with music, the song plays fine for a few minutes, but then another song starts and the two songs are playing on top of each other (actually, it may be the same song playing over itself too).
What gives?!

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

ITunes 8 keeps randomly opening when I don't want it to.

I just downloaded the new iTunes 8 yesterday, and today while working on my computer, iTunes Randomly opens up when i don't click on it or anything. is there anyway to make this stop or how can i get the old version of itunes back?

I have to agree. I've been using iTunes/iPods exclusively for listening to podcasts since 2008, and within the past year it's just gotten increasingly frustrating and confusing to use both iTunes and my iPod for this purpose. I just found this thread because my iPod auto-deleted a podcast that I'd only listened to for 10 minutes; and I don't want it to ever delete podcasts without my consent. Truly infuriating.

Random changes when syncing

Since changing to Lion and iOS5, date/times for events are randomly changed during the syncing process. Events are no longer editable on my iPhone4. Notifications show duplicate references. Events are removed. None of these problems occurred before the upgrades. I've tried syncing with iCloud. I've tried syncing from my computer. Accuracy has been lost in all cases.
What should the preference setting be to insure an accurate sync from computer-to-iPhone?

Dates get randomly changed when importing folders into Aperture

I am in the process of migrating my iPhoto pictures over to Aperture. Because I have close to 100k pictures and short clips, I can not import my entire 500 GB library at once because I don't have enough hard drive space to support both iPhoto and Aperture libraries at the same time. I also thought it might make sense to not have one gigantic library. Also I would like to have my old photos separated by years, and I don't know if Aperture would do this if I imported the entire iPhoto library (which does only separate them by events) at once. So it appears to me that the only import method that would work (please correct me if this is wrong) would be to open the "Masters" directory of iPhoto in the Finder, and drag and drop each year's directory into the "Projects/Library" panel in Aperture. Note that I do not want any editing information preserved from iPhoto, so using the Masters seems to be the most space efficient thing. So far so good but there appear to be at least two big snags. Firstly the yellow projects folders within each blue years folder in Aperture are not in chronological but in alphabetical order and I can't find out how to fix this. Secondly (and much more problematically) the dates on many old photos have been altered in an apparent random manner during the import into Aperture! Therefore they do appear in the wrong locations in my events library, according to the altered date. There are many too many photos that have been changed to undo this manually (I estimate it would take several weeks to do this).
But how and why could this have happened in the first place?
I also noticed that even when I change the dates of the Aperture masters to the true ones (by comparing to the masters in iPhoto), they still remain in the same wrong location in my Projects/Events library, according to the date originally (and falsely) assigned by Aperture.
There surely has to be a way to import photos into Aperture without ruining their date stamp?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi iScientist,
If I understand you correctly I should not import iPhoto Masters directly, because they have been altered to be in some kind of internal organization scheme. What I'm confused about is that I thought the "Masters" in iPhoto were just untouched camera files?
Yes, I would also be confused. The more I think about it, the less I know why anything wrong. You stated that you don't care about any adjustments you made in Aperture, so why wouldn't be okay to "reach into" iPhoto's internal database and pull out the masters? Good question. The only thing I can come up with: Maybe that folder isn't really what you think it is.
Were you able look at the metadata in Preview after finding one of the problematic masters in the iPhoto library again? That might give a clue.
When you say "regular way", do you mean going to "Import -> iPhoto library"? The problem with this, it seems, is that my entire iPhoto library will be imported that way, however I would like to import it chunks, split in years and on different physical media
Yes, that is what I meant. There have been various topics in this forum concerning how to import parts of the iPhoto library. I cannot seem to find any relevant posts at the moment. Perhaps someone else has better luck searching...
In any case, you may be better off using *referenced masters* instead of multiple libraries. With multiple libraries, your photos will be disjointed by whatever scheme you devise (like years). So, when you're looking at 2011, and you want that Christmas photo from 2010, you will need to close Aperture and restart it with a new library.
With referenced masters, you choose to store a particular set of *masters only* (maybe all of them) in another location. You can put different sets of masters in different places. For instance, you can have one project on one external hard drive, and a different project on a different external drive. Your versions, metadata, previews, thumbnails, all stay in the library. In this way, you can at least view screen-sized versions of last Christmas even if your "2010" external hard drive is not connected.
Looking at manual for references to referenced may be good for you before you delve too deep into this.
What I meant by order being unchanged/the file being in the wrong location is that in the chronologically organized projects overview the projects that were imported with the wrong date, which I changed to the correct date in Metadata, still appear in the wrong location.
Ahh, that is a bug that users discovered a little while ago. It took me a while to re-find the thread, but you can read up on that here. I (among others hopefully) have provided feedback to Apple concerning that bug.
[http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12981789&#12981789]
I didn't think about that view because that view is not generally as useful as the list view in the Inspector pane. That view is new to Aperture 3 and in my opinion was built to make the transition for users of iPhoto easier.

Smart objects "bleeding" colours when resized

Bit of a strange one, this. In Photoshop CS6, whenever I create a smart object with the intention of resizing it, whenever I shrink it, where one flat colour collides with another, it creates a really ugly "bleed" effect -- kind of the same effect you get when you take a small image and try to make it larger:
I've zoomed in on this particular part to show just how bad it looks. Particularly on the upper part of the forearm, see how it's got a sort of white "halo" before the black outline? It now looks like I drew a slightly darker outline around all the levels of shading, and it looks really bad, almost like a raised/chiselled effect.
Obviously it's not as noticeable when you zoom out, but it's definitely there. If it helps, I've noticed that the same thing happens when I just resize the whole image using "bicubic automatic", but when I select "bicubic / anything else", the bleed does not occur. It kind of makes the once-incredibly-useful smart object tool kind of pointless now.
This never happened with any other prior version of Photoshop which had smart objects, and I've only just got hold of CS6 a few days ago, so if there's a really obvious preference/setting or something that I'm missing, please let me know
Thanks in advance x

Smart Object resizing uses the image interpolation method that's set in Preferences > General. The default has changed from CS5 to CS6, and many people do not like the change.
CS5 is set to Bicubic by default.
CS6 is set to Bicubic Automatic by default. Automatic results in Bicubic Sharper when reducing pixel dimensions, and Bicubic Smoother when increasing pixel dimensions. Bicubic Sarper tends to oversharpen and create ugly artifacts such as the halo that's plagueing you.
Set the preference in CS6 to plain Bicubic to make it like CS5.
Also in CS6, Free Transform now has an independent control for interpolation when pixel layers are targeted. It is set to Bicubic Automatic by default, so set that to plain Bicubic, too.

Quirky date changes when resizing columns

I have a new eMac, when I make the date modified and date created columns small, the date goes to 7/31/05 for all files.
When I expand the columns then the dates change to this format Nov 7, 2005 9:00pm. This happens on both the "date modified" and "date created" columns. But the some dates don't reflect the actual date of creation or modification.
I also noticed that when I download files, the modified and created dates don't reflect the actual date I downloaded them. Some items I have downloaded recently, have 2003, 2002, 2000 dates associated with them.
On my G3, all downloads would reflect the actual date download for the modified and created date. Is this not the case with the eMac?
Could it need a battery this soon?
Thank you in advance,
Deb
Update:
I just ran System Profiler and up in the top right hand corner the date says 7/31/05.

Hi JMVP, thanks for replying.
I'm running the org 8.5 on the G3 but have 9.0, 9.2 and 9.22 on my external hd's.
Yes set date automatically is checked. I tried unchecking it and nothing changed.
Timeserver is Apple America/US (time.apple.com)
My biggest concern is why are all the dates changing to 7/31/05 (style, format and using the actual date of 7/31/05) when I squeeze the column width down. But once I start expanding the columns the dates change to, what I'm assuming is the date of their creation and modification, and not the downloaded date.
This may be a stupid question, but what is a relative date, compared to, what a normal date? Every time I check or uncheck this box the dates don't change format, style or anything.
Thanks again for your help.

Why does a moving object randomly change direction without a keyframe?

I am creating a graphic in After Effects CC, which includes some rectangles zooming onscreen, slowly moving across the screen, and then zoom offscreen. However, after adding the keyframes to make the rectangle zoom offscreen, now, in the middle of the animation (where it is supposed to be slowly moving across the screen), it moves quicker in the opposite direction as before, then changes direction and moves in the direction I intended for it to move. There is no keyframe at the point where it changes, though it behaves just like there is. I've noticed that adding additional keyframes before/after that point causes another direction change. Does anyone know what is going on? I had this same problem in a similar situation in Premiere Pro a few weeks ago, but I never fixed it, just deleted the object and did something else.
Cameron

This is caused by Bezier interpretation of spatial keyframe data. There is a setting in Preferences that you can change. The ping pong motion is caused by the spatial interpretation of the velocity of the move. Your layer is moving at a certain speed between two keyframes and you decide to add another keyframe. The momentum of the layer carries it past the keyframe and then it bounces back before it continues on it's path.
If you set your preferences to display all keyframes and you select the position property you'll see Bezier handles on the path. Open the graph editor and you can clearly see the problem if you display the reference graph.
To fix the problem press the G key and hold down the Alt/Option key to change the pen tool to the convert vertex tool and click on the end of the problem causing handle and drag it toward teh keyframe or simply click the keyframe to remove the Bezier interpretation.
That's all there is to it. Change the default spatial interpretation from Bezier to Linear in the preferences and this will go away for all new keyframes but you may want to introduce Bezier interpretation manually using the pen tool on some animations.

Keynote Bug: Object colors changing when opened on different machines

I'm collaborating on a series of presentations with two other people all using Keynote 3.0.1 and we have discovered that the colors of imported graphics are changing (slightly) when we send files to each other. The same files remain normal on the machine that created them, but once that file is sent to another machine (via ichat, either archived or not), small color shifts appear within imported graphics.
This makes matching an imported graphic to a background color a real pain as you can imagine. The shift is measurable with the color palette and is repeatable and consistent.
Has anyone witnessed this?

I used to. Are you using CMYK graphics? I think the problem's with the color space. Try using RGB graphics and see if that helps any.

Object postition changes when previewed

I have a Composition Widget with stacked objects, mouse rollover reveals a group below.
Both objects are the same size and position so the group below is normally hidden.
When I preview or publish the site the group is positioned 5px up and to the left, all other object
Can anyone tell me how to overcome this?
I think it only became a problem since the last update to version 2014.1.1.6

Hello all,
I fixed this by placing each bullet point into its own text box. The indentation issue still exists though.
Thanks,

My language keeps getting randomly changed when doing searches.

For some reason, if I do a google search then go to images and then proceed to click on the Google logo, my language gets switched and Google thinks I'm from the Czech Republic. However, this only happens when my homepage is the Mozilla default. If I change my homepage to Google, this doesn't happen. How do I fix this?
My language in my options is set to English

Color Temperature changes when playing video via Dell 2713H with iMac

Hi people,
I'm having major issues with the above. This happens specifically when video is played, be it via youtube or through VLC or even XBMC.The color temperature of the video just shifts to a cooler blue and then after a while goes back to normal. This does not happen on the monitor of the iMac itself. Otherwise, viewing still photos or browsing the web works okay. It is really very irritating as you don't expect this to be happening.
I've read that this could be an issue affecting macbooks with the ability to switch between integrated and dedicated video cards, but i can't seem to find any thing suggesting a fix for iMacs. Just so you guys know, it occurs on my macbook pro as well too.
I'm running mountain lion 10.8.2 on the iMac and connecting the dell u2713h via an displayport to mini displayport cable supplied by Dell. iMac is a late 2009 model.
If anyone could offer any insights, i'll really appreciate it.
Thanks
J

I found this in another thread and it fixed the same problem for me. Apparently it's a Dell "feature" it detects video and changes the color settings for you... ? On the monitor just disable Display Settings>Smart Video Enhance.
