Cs1 drawings don't open properly in cs4?

Drawings I made in cs1 won't open properly in cs4? I just get a message which says the program can't read this illustration and then I have only parts of the image. They still work in cs1 normally. The problematic parts of the image had a gaussian blur and transparency, but even when I delete these effects still I can't open them in cs4. Any ideas anybody?

That's a very good thought about the spot color libraries they have been updated by at least Pantone.
Did you try to place the file in a new empty ai document sometimes placing strips the fie of unnecessary codeit seems.
If that doesn't work try placing or opening in Photoshop saving it as a psd (if the layers survive and placing or opening that in Illustrator.
Or save it as .ps or rather print it as a .ps file from AI CS2 and opening that in AI CS 4 , you might have to distill it first. The postscript will look right but you will not be happy with the result.

PDF files created on PC don't open properly on Mac

Our homeowner's association has documents on a website that is serviced by a Homeowners Association company. The documents are PDF documents that have been created at various times but primarily on PCs. Some of them open correctly on my MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.4) using Adobe Reader (9.4.0) while others appear to open the pages (multiple page documents show all of the pages) but with blank pages. Of course, when I contact the local administrator, he says I should get a PC. I was wondering if the difficulty is with my Adobe Reader or perhaps the way in which the documents were converted from Word to a PDF file.

I certainly hope he isn't serious, if so, I'd put the blame squarely on him for producing a non-compliant PDF. That is a seriously ignorant statement on his part (no, I'm not defending Macs, I run many different platforms).
First thing to be sure of an a Mac is that Mac Preview isn't accidently opening the file instead of Reader. I assumed you checked that already.
Second, if you are opening it within a browser by clicking on a link try right>click (or Control>Click) to get the dialog that has an option to save the file to your hard drive. Once saved, open Reader and use File>Open to open the PDF that you saved to your machine.
Does that work?
If not, with the PDF open go to File>Properties>Description. What does it say next to Application. Then go to File>Properties>Description Advanced. What does it say next to PDF producer and PDF version?

CorelDRAW X4. Published PDFs don't open properly. But they used to.

Hi everyone. I am having a problem while publishing a PDF from CorelDRAW X4. It used be ok for a long time, but one day something went wrong. After opening a published PDF file I see only a blank page zoomed to an enormous percentage value (e.g., 6035%) and the it says "there was an error reading this document (14)" .You cannot see anything but you can still import the PDF back into Corel and see the content. Unfortunatelly generated PDFs are useless. I am using different versions of Reader on a few computers. Everywhere is the same problem. Does anyone have any idea what happened ?

Photoshop CS - Images don't open properly

There's seems to be a 'bug' in Photoshop pertaining to Opening New Files. If there's an Older version of a PSD on a drive & a NEWER version is saved into the same drive, the GA trying to open the Newer version cannot see it through Open. But someone on another Mac can open it without any problems.
When this happens, Photoshop has to be Quit & Re-started. Then the New file can be seen & opens correctly.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a Photoshop problem or does it somehow pertain to OSX? Are there any plugins or updates to solve this problem?
thanks

Had a hard time all of sudden opening photos in PS via Bridge. Updated all my software and now halfway through editing a photo, my actions don't work properly. Should I remove all programs and re-install?

Dwg files opening blank in CS4

I have two .dwg files that were emailed to me and are opening up as a blank screen in AI CS4. I've never had a problem opening .dwg files before. They are both drawings produced in ProE. Any thoughts/suggestions on how I can get these files to open properly?

CAD files are done in sheets each sheet is like a revised drawing with additions and deletions they retain al the sheets and all he underlying work and paths etc. To dumb it down they delete all the sheets except the current one they save it as a copy s they retain the working drawing.
That way you only get what is current and nothing else, which is what you need.
That makes for a small and more stable file.
They can also save the file in an older version like 2002.
If that dies not work ask them to export it as an eps.

Color swatches don't load properly

iMac running 10.6.4. CS4.
I recently had a HD failure. I was able to clone my HD to external, replace HD (bless that apple care!), clone back the HD. Not sure if it's related to my problem which is this: the swatches don't load properly. For instance, if I select pantone process, I don't get a list like DS 13-1, DS 13-2, etc. like I should. No matter which library I select, only pantone swatches are available. Here is a QT movie of what I mean. My question is this: How do I preserve my PDF exports and print settings? I tried exporting and it seems that only the top preset actually exports. Do I have to export each PDF export setting separately? Same with print settings? Seems kind of tedious. I was hoping t export all my print and PDF settings before deleting prefs.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I'll give it a go. I suspected I may need to reinstall.
The print presets went in one go. The PDFs don't. The save button is grayed out.
Later on: I quit ID, started up with Command-Option-Control-Shift. If deleted my print settings but not my PDF exports. I reimported my print settings. I opened a new doc and created a rich black swatch but when I quit ID and reboot, no rich black. I think I ask this question everytime I trash my prefs but how do I make my prefs stick. All boxes also have a stroke which I don't want. No stroke, no fill, rich black swatch in the color swatches. Thanks.

Opening projects in CS4 from earlier versions of Premiere

I have various projects in Premiere 2.0. They work fine.
I tried opening one in Premiere CS4. It mostly works, but I found a small hickup where a transition (cross disolve) is quite messed up. Otherwise, it seems the project is playing the same in CS4.
My question is: how accurate is it to open projects in CS4 from an earlier version? I don't really want to have to go through every second of every project to make sure it works properly, yet I would like to upgrade to CS4.
What's the normal protocol for this? I'm sure people deal with having to open projects from earlier version of Premiere all the time.

Harm,
Thanks for your answer -- it's helpful. I will follow your advice.
What blows my mind is what the legions of editors out there do when they have to old up an old project? This must happen all the time!
Do editors have to maintain two machines -- one with the old version of Premiere to open up their old project, and another machine to work on new projects? Oh, I guess they need one machine for each version they've ever created a Premiere project in. That's like 5 machines.
Seriously, what to people do when they have to open up an old project for whatever reason? It's seems like if you open it up in the latest version of Premiere, you would have to go through every second of the project very carefully to make sure there are errors introduced -- way time consuming.

Hi Stephen,
What version of MS Office are you using?
Are you facing the issue similar to that mentioned here: Acrobat/Reader: Attach to Email button not working for PDFs referenced from long URLs
Open Acrobat. Use the click-path Edit - Preferences - select the Category "Email Accounts". In the dialog there is the "Add Account" drop-down. Select "Add Other". The "Add Webmail Account" dialog presents. You'll fill out the dialog's fields with Outlook.com settings. (don't forget the "Advance Settings" button)
From a look-see on the web it appears that the following are the needed settings. BUT, you'll be wanting to validate.
The Outlook.com SMTP server settings for sending outgoing messages from an email program on desktop, cell phone or mobile device are:
• Outlook.com SMTP server address: smtp.live.com
• Outlook.com SMTP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
• Outlook.com SMTP password': Your Outlook.com password
• Outlook.com SMTP port: 587
• Outlook.com SMTP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes
For incoming messages from an Outlook.com account to an email program using POP, use the Windows Live Hotmail POP3 server settings.
The Outlook.com POP server settings for downloading new incoming messages to email program, cell phone or mobile device are:
• Outlook.com POP server address: pop3.live.com
• Outlook.com POP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
• Outlook.com POP password: Your Outlook.com password
• Outlook.com POP port: 995
• Outlook.com POP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes

Help! I have an iMac 24" OSX version 10.6.8 my iphoto is having problems. It will not open properly. All I get is the little wheel going around and around. My iphoto is iphoto'11 version 9.2.3(629.52) What should I do to make it work properly?

Help! I have an iMac 24" OSX version 10.6.8. My iphoto is having problems. It will not open properly. All I get is the little wheel going around and around. My iphoto is: iphoto'11 version 9.2.3(629.52). What do I need to do to remedy this? I recently installed InstallMac. I don't want this on my computer. I don't know how to get it off. I'm afraid that is what scrogged my iphoto. Can anyone tell me how to correct this situation?

Re: iPhoto:
Option 1
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. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Just upgraded to OSX mavericks on macbook pro mid 2011 version. Having a big issue here that whenever my mac comes back from sleep, i.e after I open the lid, the screen flickers and there is an error of Finder not opening properly. Any fix to this?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

My mum has an iPad 1, the email programme will not open properly. If you click on the icon it opens only for a few seconds but then shuts. In that few seconds you cant select anything that you see on screen. Any ideas? Thanks

TS3297 What do I do if music files purchased/downloaded for the iTunes store don't work properly?

What do I do if music files purchased/downloaded for the iTunes store don't work properly?

Buddhabeat...clicking on the "Report a Problem" button next to the song(s) in question, should open a drop-down list menu, that allows you to select the specific issue/area of concern that you are experiecing (or you can select a generic "My problem is not on the list" (or something to that effect). Underneath this drop-down menu box, there should be another message box where you can describe the issue/problem your having. Below this message box will be a "Submit" button...clicking on that will send your message to the Apple iTunes Store Customer Support Centre (you will see a confirmation message that your message has been sent), as well as receive an email notification from the Support Centre confirming your message has been received, a case number, and that you will receive an email response pertaining to the issue/problem you're having, from the Support Centre asap (usually within 24 hours). That's how it worked for me, anyhow.

Cookies Don't Work Properly

OK, I've looked through this Forum carefully and tried everything.... Even though cookies for certain web sites (NYTimes, WatchGeeks) appear in Safari Preferenes they don't work, Why?
My settings are as follows: Block Cookies from Third Parties, etc.; Prompt from website one time only. The NYTimes cookie indicates Cache, Cookies & Local Storage. NYT cooke indicates Cookie. But every time I go from one page to another on their site, the sign-in screen re-appears. I'm using Last Pass to sign me in and I'm good until i go to another page. Then the same thing happens. With WatchGeeks, I'm prompted to sign it every time I return to the site...same problem.
I have deleted all cookies and started over, but that doesn't solve the problerm. Safari recognizes and stores the cookies again, but they don't work properly.This all started when I started to use 'Cookie" a cookie management program. But once this started, I uninstalled "Cookie'" and removed all traces of it, to no avail.
What's wrong? Can I do something in Time Machine to get me back on track? I'm open to any and all suggestions. Thanks!

The PDF's which I download through Firefox show to be corrupted & don't open

Lately the PDF's I download though Mozilla are shown as corrupted. But when the same PDF's I download using other web browsers no such problem arises.
I have tried uninstalling the firefox software & re installing it by downloading a fresh exe file. But the problem still persists.

The Problem is the PDF's don't download properly. They niether open with mozilla or with any othe PDF viewing software.
One example of the error is attached with this mail
