CS3 Cropped Ai file won't drop into Id via Br and remain cropped

Using CS3 with Mac OS 10.5. Created a large Ai file and defined and saved several cropped areas to use in Id. Saves fine and shows in Br as cropped but when dropped onto the Id page crop is lost. Any ideas? BTW if dropped into a Word file it stays cropped.... strange that it would work well with a MS program but not the Adobe one ;~). Also tried to just use pathfinder crop tool to create cropped Ai files instead and it wouldn't work well, indiscriminately cropped some things and not others. Any help appreciated.

Make sure show import options is checked in the place dialog

  • CS3 .ste files won't import into CS5

    I recently upgraded from CS3 <on XP> to CS5 <on Mac Snow Leopard.> I expected a learning curve, but I also expect that software works as specified.
    My CS3 site definition files won't import. I followed the instructions in DW help to the letter:
    Manage Sites---> Import--->browsed to .ste files, selected Choose, and nothing happens. The sites don't show up in the list in the Manage Sites dialog box. ARE THERE MISSING INSTRUCTIONS? IS THERE A PLUG-IN MISSING?
    After I've tried to import them, the .ste files are then 'greyed out' from the list of files. It doesn't matter what source the .ste files come from: jumpdrive, email, etc.
    Note:  This is a new, fresh & clean Snow Leopard install, and my files were transfered at the Apple Store. The CS5 install was just last week as well.
    I have client sites to update. Please help!

    Yes, I did export the .ste files from XP/CS3. I saved them to a jumpdrive, and also emailed them to my Macbook. I know some people don't read or follow instructions before they ask for help, but that's not the case.
    This seems to be a CS5 issue in Mac Snow Leopard. Important note; I was able to import the .ste files to an XP machine running a demo version of CS5. I've moved site files before with CS, CS2, and CS3, on XP. Never had an issue with those flavors or that OS.
    On my Mac, after I attempt to import the .ste files, they become 'greyed out'. All other file types (.html, etc.) also appear 'greyed out'. It seems like there's a missing step in the instructions?
    Update:  I right-clicked the .ste files in my Downloads file, and chose 'Open with Dreamweaver'. THEN they imported successfully, and prompted me to choose the root folders. (If nobody answers the front door, knock on the back door!)
    Thanks to all for your suggestions, but I think the problem is behind me. Long live the right click!

  • The .prel files will not load into premiere elements 13 and says that there is a missing codec. This is a school's site llicense that we've used for more thatn a month.

    The .prel files will not load into premiere elements 13 and says that there is a missing codec. This is a school's site llicense that we've used in our lab for more than a month.

    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
    First..
    1. Have you updated from 13 to the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
    2. Do the problems exist if you disable the antivirus and firewall(s)?
    3. Are you running the program as Administrator? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
    4. Have you refreshed the Online Services using Premiere Elements Editor Edit Menu/Preferences/Web Sharing?
    5. Have you updated the Adobe Application Manager?
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
    6.Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    7. Lots more we could go through such as deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole
    13.0 Folder in which it exists.
    But, I think that you have enough things going on here to warrant an uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) and then reinstall with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

    If the problems persist after all that then we will adjust to additional troubleshooting maneuvers.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • Hi there, I need to be able to read raw files from an Olympus Stylus 1 via CS5 and Lightroom 4.  I have downloaded Raw file plug-in v 6.7.1 but still can't read the files.

    Hi there, I need to be able to read raw files from an Olympus Stylus 1 via CS5 and Lightroom 4.  I have downloaded Raw file plug-in v 6.7.1 but still can't read the files?

    Read this table http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    The Olympus Stylus 1 was first supported in Camera Raw 8.3 which is only compatible with CS6 and CC.
    It is not compatible with CS5 or older and never will be.
    If you do not want to upgrade to CS6 or CC then you can dwonload the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all Stylus 1 Raw files to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5.

  • Contribute CS3 embeds the contents of SSI Includes into page after Edit and Publish

    I have tried every possible way to figure this out but it
    seems as though no one has this problem or a solution...
    My Dreamweaver CS3 Template based files that have SSI
    Includes placed in a "non-editable region" of a template and/or
    nested templates are continually embedded, merged, or hard-coded (I
    used those keywords for anyone else who might be searching for help
    on this frustrating issue) into the page after it has been edited
    and published with Contribute CS3 for Windows.
    After many, many, hours and days rebuilding templates
    (thinking that it was my code), experimenting with .htaccess
    include_path variables, and cursing this application, I have come
    to one conclusion - if I put my includes within "editable regions"
    in the templates or the template based pages, edit and publish the
    page with Contribute - then the page is saved normally, with the
    includes intact and not embedded within the page. This is of course
    not necessarily desirable!
    I have tried using various types of include directives like:
    <?php include('footer.inc'); ?>
    <?php require('footer.inc'); ?>
    <?php virtual(footer.php'); ?>
    <!--#include file="footer.inc"-->
    <!--#include virtual="footer.inc"-->
    All Includes are merged into the template-based page after
    the page has been edited and published with Contribute - if they
    are in "non-editable regions"!
    Please, someone point me in the right direction - if it's
    calling Adobe's Help line, or posting the files or whatever. I
    can't finish this project and hand off to the client until this is
    resolved.

    Hi,
    I'd be reall interested to know if you got anywhere with this as I'm having the same problem.
    The article referenced further down this thread is no longer available either.
    Any suggestions or advice on this issue would be much appreciated.

  • CR2 files won't import into iPhoto

    Have recently done a photographic course and was advised to shoot in RAW from now on.  Just taken a load of pictures in RAW using a Canon 70D).  But when I try to import them, I get this message:
    "The following file could not be imported.  The file is in an unrecognized format."
    I'm using iPhoto 9.2.3 on an iMac using OS X 10.6.8.
    Canon's own software will imprt them but I can't get them into iPhoto.
    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Hi Rudegar
    Followed your advice and looked at Genieo.  But this seems to be a front for an alternative web browser. Indeed I'm wondering whether it could be malware because now I can't get rid of it!  Every time I drag it from the Applications folder to the Trash bin I get this message:
    I've shut down the computer and restarted it.  I've dragged all the elements to the Trash bin - and now it won't allow me to empty it - instead I get this message:
    So, now 2 questions:
    Is there a particular CR2 you would recommend?
    And, how do I get rid of this new stuff?
    Many thanks.

  • Longer movie files won't import into iPhoto

    I have a Canon PowerShot SD950IS 12.1MP Digital Camera which takes surprisingly video, and I was surprised to see that iPhoto even imports movies to begin with, but there's a glitch. Shorter movies import fine, but anything longer than a minute or two never finish importing. The camera says busy, and eventually, iPhoto stops, but the movie never shows up in the iPhoto window. Is there a limit to video size in iPhoto?
    Also, I would like to import videos and photos into separate applications. Is there a way to tell iPhoto not to import or delete movies from a camera, and only work with picture files? That would simplify just using the Canon software for the movie portion (which does work).
    One other thing, does iMovie work with USB now, or is it still Firewire only?
    Thanks!

    If you use a card reader to mount the memory card from your camera on the Mac's desktop, you can copy your videos to the hard drive by dragging and dropping, then import them into iMovie or whatever.
    This suggestion presumes that when you connect the camera directly to the Mac, like most other recent Canon models, the card inside it doesn't mount on the desktop. Using a card reader will mount it. If the card does mount on the desktop when you connect the camera, just drag and drop the movies from it to the hard drive.

  • Camera Raw Files won't open into Photoshop CC

    I'm having intermittent problems with Camera Raw and/or Photoshop CC.  Here's my flow...
    1.  Open Adobe Bridge and double click on the NEF file I want.
    2.  File opens into Camera Raw
    3.  I make adjustments
    4.  I click on Open Object (whether or not smart object is checked in preferences)
    5.  Nothing happens...it just goes back to the thumbnail in Adobe Bridge
    My Camera Raw preferences are set:  "Automatically open JPEGs with settings"
    Camera Raw Version 8.2.0.94
    Adobe Bridge Version 5.0.2.4
    Photoshop CC Version 14.1.2 x64
    Nikon D7100
    Does anybody know how to rectify this?  I'd appreciate the help!  I'm sure it's probably something simple I'm overlooking, but sometimes it seems to work...that's what makes me wonder.

    Yes, absolutely all of the quality and dynamic range is retained in the DNG, because it is still raw data.
    Outside of upgrading to Photoshop CS5, which can open your files directly with Camera Raw 6.4.1, your only choice is the extra step of converting the .CR2 files to .DNG with the free DNG converter.
    While you'll get all the quality your Camera Raw 5.x converter can deliver, you should keep in mind the Camera Raw 6.x converter has an entirely new, additional "2010 process" for converting raw images, which (depending on your settings) can actually deliver a higher quality conversion than the one you're getting with Photoshop CS4.  I think it's worth the cost of the Photoshop upgrade, personally.

  • 2.98GB .m4v File won't import into iMove 11?

    I ripped a family movie off a DVD converted from a VHS tape, using Handbrake into an .m4v file and have tried twice now to import it into iMovie 11 without success.  Is there some kind of limit that would make this fail?  It starts building a .mov file in the iMove projects directory and I can see the file size increase until the very end (2 hours later) and then it gets deleted.  Ugly.  What am I doing wrong or are my expectations of iMovie too high?

    So after waiting all this time, iMovie simply deleted the file the end without adding it to my event.  No error.  No joy and almost 13GB.

  • QT Movie won't drop into iDVD  HELP!

    Of course I'm down to the last minute again:
    I've got a 540 KB QT Movie exported in full quality DV from iMovie 3.03.
    Upon opening iDVD 2.1 and attempting to import or drag and drop the QT movie from my desktop, iDVD appears to do nothing and a button for my movie DOES NOT appear anywhere in my project.
    7.6 G available on my hard drive right now. Can I delete the still images from iPhoto I used to make my iMovie to free up hard drive space? (Or are they still linked through some sort of database type of mechanism?)
    Any speedy help is greatly appreciated!

    I've got a 540 KB QT Movie exported in full quality
    DV from iMovie 3.03.
    Full quality DV should run about 13 GB per hour. - That's about 3.6 MB per second.
    If what you have is 540 KB, what you have is a Reference Movie and NOT a Self-Contained QuickTime movie. If you have done anything to the pictures/clips used to create this Reference Movie, it won't work.
    Please verify the size of your movie.

  • Imported seq. from PPro won't drop into AE comps

    I've used this particular workflow literally hundreds of times with CC, but it seems to be broken with CC2014:
    Import a PPro sequence, drop it into an existing AE comp, or drag it over the Create Comp button; at that point, I can work with the PPro seq. as if it were footage, adding FX, using it as a BG, etc.
    This seems to be broken in CC2014 (or the workflow has changed, and I just can't figure out how to make it work). Dragging the imported seq. over the Create Comp button creates a new comp that's properly sized/spec'd, etc., but the comp itself is empty. Dragging the imported seq into a comp as if it were footage doesn't work (nothing happens); loading the comp in the Footage window shows that there is, indeed, working footage, but hitting the Overlay/Ripple Insert button, again, does nothing.
    Am I missing something here? Is there some zany new setting that I don't know about...?

  • Red files won't import into CS5

    Hi all,
    I shot some footage yesterday on a Red Epic. The files are .rd3. Premiere Pro CS5 is suppossed to have native support for Red files, but they won't import - I get a "file import failure" message. The error says "unsupported format or damaged file"
    The files aren't damaged.
    Any suggestions? Thanks.

    CS5 supports pre-Mysterium-X RED One media.  To import later builds and media from Epic/Scarlet, you need the RED Epic importer.
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/redepic_importer.html
    The new CS6 will have support for this built-in.
