CS6, windows 7, selected points don't show, color won't change, just acting weird.

I hope someone can help with this issue. Illustrator CS6 has suddenly decided to stop displaying certain elements of the file. For example, if I select a path, it does NOT show any nodes/points nor does it give me a visual indication that the item is selected. If I try to add a point to an existing shape, it doesn't show that it has been added, or even if it has been added. Color selection is also not responding as expected.
I have reset preferences, reinstalled and updated. Don't know what else to try.
Any suggestions?

Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

,psd and .ai don't show color mode info

G5 10.4.11, Bridge 2.1.1.9
I have set up Bridge Preferences to show Color Mode when viewing thumbnails (Preferences > Additional Lines of Thumbnail Metadata > Show: Color Mode).
But, when viewing thumbnails, I can only see the color mode listed with .tiff, .jpeg and .gif files, but not .psd and .ai files. Am I missing something here?
I am looking for a useful tool that will identify all non-CMYK images, easily, as we use .ai and .psd files almost exclusively.

Ramon- the reason we had removed profiles from files that already had them:
ID CS3 sizes were abnormally large. We had a template that was 90MB, with lots of small images on the master pages. When saved as an .inx file and opened in CS2, that same file was much, much smaller (sorry, don't have the actual size). We then noticed that profiles in the .psd files increased the file size dramatically, especially for files that are very small in the first place. For example: a profile would increase the layered file size from 220k to 928k, and for the same flattened file, from 72k to 928k.
This in of itself might be OK, but the InDesign file now seems to include the profile info. When the profiles were removed from all the images, this 90MB InDesign template decreased to about 15MB.
We were told that our printer strips out the profiles anyway, so we figured we didn't need the profiles at this stage of the layout.

Hi,
I work for Dr Pod, an iPod repair company. This sounds to be that the hard drive is dying in the iPod. As it is an older iPod it is out of its one year warranty, the iPod won't be repaired for free by Apple, and you'd need to consider wether it'd be better to have the iPod repaired by an iPod repair company such as my own, or to purchase a new one from Apple.
If you did choose to purchase a new iPod from Apple, then they do provide 10% off the cost of a new iPod if you exchange in your old one. I'm not sure if this applies to faulty ones though (I have heard of some people being turned away for having a faulty device).
Hope this helps,

New Photos Don't Show On My Apple TV -- Is There a limit? An "Update" button? ...?

I have my Apple TV 2nd gen set so that after two minutes is shows photos from my computer as screensaver.
I have an album in iPhoto where I drag the photos I want and I've told the Apple TV to pick up those photos. Has always worked fine.
Recently I added some pictures to that album but they don't show on the Apple TV -- just the previous photos are on display. Is there a limit? There are 94 photos in that album. Have I forgotten some sort of "update" button? ...
All the settings both on the Apple TV and my iTunes look fine and I recently ran whatever update Apple wanted me to (I had this photo hiccup both before and after that upgrade so that ain't it).
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Possible iTunes issue:
Try the following after adding photos.
Go to file
Then Home Sharing
Select photos to share
Click on All Photos already selected Do anyway
When Apply turns black click on Apply
Now go to Apple TV to see if photos there
Or restart iTunes.
Works for me every time photos do not appear on my Apple TV 3
Hopefully will work for you.

How do I get back 'Don't Show Again' dialogue boxes?

How do I get back 'Don't Show Again' dialogue boxes?
In particular:
I've got an interactive form with a 'Submit via Email' button. Normally, when you select this button you get two options:
1. Send via desktop email application (e.g. outlook)
2. Send via other email applications (e.g. hotmail)
Previously I've selected the 'don't show again' check box which defaults to the second option.
Now I'd like to select the first option but don't know how to get this dialogue box to come up again. How is this done?

You can use "Edit => Preferences" and select the 'General' category, click on the 'Reset All Warnings' button, and click the 'OK' button to finish.

Quits while importing; pictures in library folder don't show in window

Quits while importing; photos are in iPhoto Library, but don't show up
I have about 6500 photos in iPhoto 5.0.4. Everything worked well until this week when I went to import a series of new pictures. I import from a Scandisk card reader.
The process appeared to go well until the progress bar showed 1 photo remaining. After a time the application quit.
I tried again with the same result, several times.
I tried rebuilding the library. It appeared not to work.
I copied the library to another disk drive and tried to create a new library and copying back the pictures into the new library. It didn't work.
I trashed the software and reinstalled it, then copied the old pictures into the library and the new ones from my camera. Then I had to recreate the albums I had before. It worked.
This morning I shot more pictures and tried to add them to the library. Déja vu. It got to one picture remaining and quit.
I rebuilt the library. This time it seemed to work. The "new" pictures were still in the library folders on the hard drive but did not show up on the screen (one for each time I'd tried to load them with _1, _2, etc. added to the name, for each additional attempt, including the last one in the series).
I tried to add to the library. It quit at the one photo remaining point again.
Suggestions, please.
Alex Norton

Hi Alex,
Two things to suggest:
-Try a different card reader
-Use Image Capture to import your images to the computer. You will have much more control. Once images are downloaded you can put them in dated folders then import the folders to iPhoto.
This is my preferred method and is what I do.
Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
Under the General button choose
Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

IWeb starts but don't show project window on OSX Lion

I used iWeb 3.0.4 on Snow leopard but after i updated to lion 10.7.3, iWeb don't show project window. When i click on the app, it launches then nothing on screen, no project windows. I have removed the plist files again and again but nothing changed. I have a website and there is two month that i can't modify it !
I have reinstalled iWeb but no change.
So i have copied what happen when i click on app

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Direct Selection Tool don't works cause points dissapear in shapes

Good evening,
I'm using Photoshop CC under a Macbook Pro Retina Display (15 inches), I've noticed that since lasts updates, when I use the direct selection tool for chaning a shape trace the points that should appear for selecting each anchor dissapears, and there's no way to get them back (sometimes by closing the program and restarting fixes this issue).
The tool is working because when I clic somewhere over a shape it gets highlighted on layers panel, but I can't see the points and so, can't modify the shape.
Does this belongs to any option? (I know in Illustrator there's an option to see or hide the points, but don't know if in Photoshop goes the same way or not) or it's a bug from the last updates? (I would say that it didn't happen at the beggining). But as I use a lot shorcuts, sometimes I can make a misstake and press cmd + wrong key, so I think it could be the reason for this... but I'm not quite sure.
Thanks in advice!
EDIT:
I've seen that if I hide the "extras" (cmd + H) it hides the guides but also the points from shapes (that shouldn't be this way, right?) and even I can see them when I turn them on, I can't pick just one as I did in CS6 by using direct selection tool and pressing on just one point (at the beggining all of them are highlighted cause you've got selected the whole shape layer, but when you press one, it should get this highlighted and turn off the rest of them), and the only way to get just one point is to pan with the cursor and make a selection, passing over the points you want to highlight, but this is annoying cause if you've got any other shape below, it will select it as well.

1000x this. My designs are 100% vector shapes, so if Adobe have changed this core behavior intentionally, they’ve just made my life a lot more difficult.
We should be able to use the Direct Selection Tool to select a shape layer (similar to how the Move Tool has done) by clicking on any visible pixel. But then we should be able to freely drag-select points on that shape (starting from any neutral area) without selecting other shape layers. This is how it’s worked since before I can remember.
Here’s why the two new selection modes don’t work:
Active Layers - I can no longer freely select any visible shape. Instead I’m forced to make a time-consuming roundabout to the layer palette, where I have to squint to find my shape layer, and activate it manually before continuing. (Hitting “V” to select a layer, then “A” to get back to the D.S. Tool is nearly as cumbersome. Plus, I leave off the Move Tool's auto-select mode.)
All Layers - Treats all my shapes as if they’re on one layer. Overlapping shapes are therefore impossible to work with -- mainly drag-selecting and deselecting points -- in situ.
We either need a “legacy” setting, or some way to constrain selection on drag, via a key modifier or something. This “all or nothing" thing doesn’t work for me... and apparently for others. Why would they change such a thing?
Or maybe there’s something I’m missing. Please let that be the case!

HT201269 I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone, how do i get them back. when I sync my phone, itunes says that they have been selected, but they don't show up on my phone

I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone. the iTunes sync page says that they have all been selected but they don't show up in my phone? Help?

I had the same problem and was able to fix it. Go to your iTunes and click on the Tones folder on the left under library. Some of my ring tones had an exclamation mark next to it and those were the ones that did not sync. You have to click on those and find it in your computer. Once the exclamation mark is gone, go to Tones section of your device in iTunes, make sure you select the tones you want synced, and click apply. I hope that helps you!

Indesign CS5.5 can't select objects, they don't show in layers panel either

I received an .indd file from a client. There are certain objects that I can't select. I know they aren't locked because I can't select "Unlock all on spread." The weird thing is, the objects don't show up in the layer panel. If I uncheck the layer's eye, they disappear. But if I uncheck the eyes of all the individual objects within the layer, the objects I can't select are still visible. I'm attaching a screenshot. Can someone help please?

The items are on a mster page.
In the Pages Panel, go to the master associated with the page you're on, there you'll find the things you're after.

Tags from 'Comments' field in Windows Explorer don't show up in iTunes

I have thousand of files where I allready put tags directly in the comments field in the files proberties in Windows Explorer, but the tags don't show up in iTunes comments field?
I can then manually put tags directly in iTunes comments field and they will not show up in the proberties of the files in Windown Explorer!
So I ask, why on earth aren't those fields (in iTunes and in Windows Explorer) compatible, when all other fields (for example name, artist, year) are compatible?

Okay, thanks for replies and for your time, but the problem continues.
First: I've ripped CD's in different ways (before starting to use iTunes). I've used Nero, Windows Media Player, Lame and imported mp3 files directly from the internet. Some files have been through Flash Renamer and TigoTago. After importing the files I've tagged them with comments and other stuff directly in Windows Explorer. And then I decided to use iTunes because of buying iPods and playing music through AirPort Express.
What I've tried to right now:
I've tried to check files with MP3Val, but it said the files were OK.
Then I tried - with another laptop - to install I new iTunes program (English language to be sure and there after I imported/ripped a new CD using iTunes to import. Before importing I put a tag in the Comments field in iTunes and it never showed up in Windows Explorer Comment field. I also tried after that to put tags directly in Windows Explorer Comment field and add the files once again to iTunes library, but again, no comments in iTunes. Also again put tags in iTunes, but no tags in Windows Explorer.
Then I did more or less the same using Realplayer to import the CD, but with the same negative results.
*Then I went back to my old laptop, imported a CD using iTunes and then tagged the comment field in Windows Explorer and suddenly I got comments in iTunes! But the comments look like this: "00000000 00000210 000008E8 0000000000775908 00000000 0040E5E1 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000".*
I don't know what to do with this?
And apparently, it's only when importing new files using iTunes to rip the CD, that this happens. Otherwise, nothing happens at all.

CS6, windows 7, selected points don't show, color won't change, just acting weird.
