[CS3 - Win] Smart Guides not showing up when Snap To Grid enabled

Has anyone else encountered this bug?
AI CS3 13.02
Smart Guides are turned on, but hovering over items does not show the cyan hints, snapping to anchor points / paths etc does not work. This only occurs when Snap To Grid is enabled. If you then go and turn it off, the Smart Guides start working again as expected.
Is this a known bug?

Thanks for the reply Mike. Smart Guides work perfectly for me provided Snap to Grid is turned off.
I can see there being a conflict between snapping to grid and smart guides in CS3 - which takes precedence? From a UX perspective, if these two snapping modes are mutually exclusive, there should be at the very least an alert letting you know the other mode is disabled; the menu item should be greyed out. Or if it's truly an either-or situation, then the menu needs to be revised such that both snap to grid and smart guides are within the same submenu, and only one can be selected at a time, toggle with CMD+SHIFT+OPT+U.

  • Smart Guides Not Showing

    Hi,
    Smart Guides are not showing when I use Adobe Illustrator CC.
    There were several posts in this forum that suggest turning of "snap to grid" and double checking the preferences that smart guides are on. I've done both and provided screenshots.
    Smart Guides is very important feature to me. I need it urgently back on.
    Thanks

    amarzum,
    It could be a preference corruption.
    You may try to:
    1) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    or:
    2) Move the folder Other options (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible).

  • Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 – Smart Guides Not Working

    I have been having an issue with Illustrator CC 2014's smart guides not snapping to other objects. In this instance I dragged used the 'Selection Tool' to drag one of the 8 points of the bounding box to the second square.
    This also happens when trying to resize items to guides, Illustrator 'snaps' the object to the guide, but it is not inline!
    I have noticed that this issue does not occur when resizing or moving groups of objects groups of objects. It seems that the two different types of bounding boxes are the issue?

    There seems to be a problem with rectangle shapes and smart guides. The problem has been reported in the forum some time ago.

  • ITunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.

    iTunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.  I reconnect to iTunes and it shows the music and books as being loaded on my iPod.
    Sometimes the audiobook will play, then disappear from iPod's play menu after I reconnect to iTunes and load more music.  I've got plenty of free memory, and iTunes shows the files still on iPod.
    ....or should I just roll it back to iOS 5...  never had these kinds of issues with the old OS.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all AB and resync
    To delete all ADgo to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>AB and try deleting them from there
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    You need to sync the app to the iPod

    Is the app compatible with your model iPod and iOS?
    Are any Restrictions set that would prevent installing the app on your iPod? Settings>General>Restrictions
    Do any apps no sync to the iPod?
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Have you successfully synced aps to this iPod from this iTunes library before?

  • I have just downloaded a free app and there is no icon and it will not open from the list even tho it appears to have downloaded and the "open" button is available.  Does not show up when I search for it.  Plenty of memory . . .

    I Have an iPad mini running iOS 7.1.2,  I downloaded a new app and it's icon does not appear anywhere ( have ~ 180 apps so not at limit) and it won't open from the purchased apps list.  It does not show up when I search for it so can't open t that way either.  It doesn't require iOS 8.  Can't delete and reinstall, cause not icon.  This is not a normal "app won't open" question.  it doesn't start the. Stop it just doesn't seem to exist.  Any help is appreciated

  • My mac will not show images when on the internet?

    My mac will not show images when on the internet?  I think I have inadvertently changed some settings but nor sure which one.

    I am going to assume you are using Safari here. If so then go to the Apple menu bar and hit Safari-> Preferences.  Under the Apperance tab there is a check box that is called "Display images when the page opens".  Check if that is unticked.

  • The names of my contacts are not showing up when I receive text messages

    The names of my contacts are not showing up when I receive text messages, only the number is showing up. How can I fix this?

    This is a HUGE iOS bug.. Following a tip from another poster, I was able to fix the issue (temporarily).
    This worked for me on Verizon.
    I dialed *228 on my Verizon phone. I pressed "1" to activate it over the air. I then went into task manager and killed all the running apps.. Waited a few minutes.
    The next text I got displayed the number correctly!.. Until I rebooted, that is.
    PLEASE, call Apple and speak with a senior engineer on this. They can't fix it if they don't know it's a problem! (800) MY-IPHONE

  • Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

  • SharePont 2013 Document Library lookup Column Properties not Showing Correctly when editing in Word

    Hi
    I keep seeing this issue albeit intermittently.  I have set up a doc library for my users which has a custom content type (lookup, metadata columns, etc)  . They all appear perfectly most of the time except the lookup column. Sometimes is just
    decides to display the title field of the current library and not the lookup list title .  It is weird as it has been working perfectly for ages given the library is populated with valid documents.
    There are some fixes listed here. Has anyone got any experience of this?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that the lookup  column not display well while editing in word.
    Did you customize the Document Information Panel?
    I recommend you edit your custom document information panel or create a new document information panel, then re-publish it to check whether it works.

    Or you can also use the methods in the post you have pasted to check whether it works.
    As the limitation of the environment, we could not reproduce the issue in our environment.
    I  would suggest you open a case to Microsoft Customer Service via Phone.

  • Unable to transfer photos (jpeg) from desktop to SD card.  Appears as if successful then does not show up when put SD card in camera.

    Unable to transfer photos (jpeg) from desktop to SD card for Cannon Power shot camera. 
    Appears as if successful, jpegs show up in SD card window,  but they do not  show up when I put SD card in camera.
    Go through entire process to no avail.  SD card is not locked.
    Thank You

    Ahh, extra info ahead...
    Pictures on SD card, SanDisc-SDHC, 4GB Card, are jpeg.  The ones I would like to put on the card are jpeg as well.
    SD format MS-DOS (FAT32) .
    3.876 GB available on card.
    I have
    Exported the pics from iPhoto to the desktop. Inserted sd card into side of iMac.  The icon of card popped up.
    Attempts to no avail:
    1)   Dragged the photos to the disk icon for the sd card.
    2)   Dragged pictures into the DCIM folder (where all photos taken on camera resided).
    3)   Created new folder.  Put photos from desktop into folder and dragged ne folder inside DCIM -since pictures taken at different times had their own folders inside the DCIM folder.
    Every time the photos/files end up showing up on the sd card as long as it is in my computer but when ejected and inserted into my camera, all imported photos/jpeg file are gone.
    Hmmmmm
