Edit smart object open in preview and not ai...

Hello,
Al working on a layout with CS4 master collection. In PS I pasted an ai as a smart object.... But now when I edit the smart object it opens in preview and not AI.
Any thoughts?
thanks

The matter has come up recently already, a forum search turns up:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2416222#2416222
So unless updating the OS helps the problem may be persistent.
A work-around may be to Export Contents, edit in Illustrator, save that and then Replace Contents back in Photoshop.

When I try to paste an CCI file into a PSD, I get this message- Could not complete the Paste command because the ICC profile is invalid. I need the layer to be an editable smart object! What's the solution? Ron

I received the file from my client. However, last week I had no trouble pasting the same file into a PSD file, as a smart object.
The color file is a label mechanical, which I place into a PSD file of the product. These are used for print ads and web graphics. The color is very critical and has worked really well for the last 4 years.
I have used the default color settings in Creative Suite and its been working fine. They are in synch and, I have no idea how to re-assign the color profile. I’m a graphic Designer, color correction is not something I would do normally.

Adobe Flash 11.9.900.152: objects not showing in print preview and not printing

When I select print from Adobe Flash 11.9.900.152, objects are not showing in print preview and not printing on the printer. I have tried to print from both MS Internet Explorer and Google Chrome--neither work.
I am using:
Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pak 1
Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16618
or
Google Chrome 31.0.1650.57 m
How do I resolve this issue?

What is it you're trying to print?

All pdf say they are the wrong file type or are damaged. will not allow to open in preview and no pdf's can be printed as they are "empty"

All PDF's I try to save will save but nobody can open them. Message is it cannot be opened by reader it is the wrong file type or has been damaged.
Tried to open with Preview and the message says it is empty, also empty if you try to sea as a PDF in the print option!

Hi Michelle in MD,
Thank you for posting on the Adobe Forums, as botht applications cannot open the PDF file, i would suggest you to download it again and try.
Thanks,

Smart objects open in Illustrator CC instead of CC 2014

I have designed a couple of items in Illustrator CC 2014 and pasted them as a smart object in Photoshop CC 2014. Yesterday, I did some editing to these smart objects files and all was working well, the Smart Object opened in Illustrator CC 2014. Today a different story, I opened the smart objects and they opened in illustrator CC not CC 2014, the version where they were created. Does anybody have any idea of what is going on? I will appreciate any help with this issue. I found a similar question but the solution was not helpful because my smart objects are associated with the latest version not in a previous version as the posting suggested was the problem.

Hi Chris,
I didn't even thank you for answering my question. Thank you. Do you know how I could change/fix the issue I have with the SOs not opening in the right Illustrator version. I have designed the images in Illustrator CC2014 but when I open them from Photoshop, they open in Illustrator CC. Thanks.

Linked Smart Object: Allowed File Type and Editor

Please forgive my lack of knowledge. I'm evaluating PS CC 2014, own PS 5.1 and am a hair shy of being a novice. Presently I'm doing Photomerge Focus Stacking. What I'm hoping is that DNG files can be Linked Smart Objects and that I can modify the merged photo by editing the DNG files in Adobe Camera Raw. Is this possible? The Adobe Help article has a rather cryptic "You can’t perform operations that alter pixel data", that leads me to believe no but, I don't understand that fully.
Thanks.

Currently you can not use any of the merge options: pano, hdr, or focus stacking with a smart object. So you would not be able to do that with dng files and retain the ability to edit them in Camera Raw. It would be nice though!

Smart Objects between Photoshop, Illustrator and Dreamweaver while managing the version in Vesion Cu

Ok, so the title of this post sounds confusing. First off, I created a graphic in Illustrator CS3. It is to be used on a web page created in Dreamweaver CS3. I want to be able to streamline the editing process by using the Smart Object linking feature between Dreamweaver and Photoshop CS3.
Obviously, the problem is, I cannot link the Photoshop source to Dreamweaver because the source is not a Photoshop file, it is in Illustrator. The obvious solution to that is to export the Illustrator file as a Photoshop file. The problem with that is, I want to maintain the source in Illustrator and make edits in Illustrator.
So, my solution was to place the Illustrator file in Photoshop and make the Illustrator file a Smart Object in Photoshop. Then link that Photoshop file to the Dreamweaver page. So, basically, Photoshop is just the link between Dreamweaver and Illustrator. It works well! I click the little edit button in Dreamweaver abd it calls up the file in Photoshop. Then I double-click on the Smart Object layer in Photoshop and the source comes up in Illuistrator.
Now, here is the problem. To add to the confusion, I maintain versioning in Version Cue. So whenever I change the Illustrator file, I check it in to Version Cue. The Illustrator file I linked to in Photoshop is the local file on my computer. This file is syncronized with the version of the file that gets uploaded to Version Cue. This may sound complicated, but to see how I did it is pretty straight forward.
My assumption was, when I double clicked on the Smart Object layer in Photoshop, I would get the local copy of the Illustrator file to edit. But, that wasn't the case. Problem is, I got a temp file of the Illustrator graphic and NOT the original source file I linked to in Photoshop.
I can still edit the temp file and have those changes automatically made in Photoshop and then update the image in Dreamweaver. BUT, when I got to check in the new edits of the Illustrator file to Version Cue, it wants to create a new file and not rev-up to the new version of the original file. That's because the file I'm checking in is NOT the original file, it is a temp file.
Does anyone else use a workflow like this? If so, how do you do it?

Ok, so far I have come up with this solution. Usually after editing the Illustrator file I would check it in. But, as mentioned, I can't just do that because the file I'm editing is the temp file and not the original file syncronized with Version Cue.
So, instead of using Check-In when I'm done, I can use Save As... I can then overwrite my local file that is syncronized with Version Cue. That will save the new file as the correct name and automatically check it into Version Cue as the next version of the correct file.

Cannot open jpgs Preview will not shut down, color spinning wheel present

Trying to open jpgs and all I get is the spinning color
wheel. The files will not open.
Preview will not shut down even with apple prompt
of instructions on how to do so.
First aid in the OS10 utilities has seemed to disappear, but its still there for OS9.
I've been opening hundreds and hundreds of jpgs the last few weeks, printing and dumping duplicate images, etc...
And now I get this.
Ideas on how to clear this problem up? And ideas as to what the problem is?
thx - Craig

It sounds like it might be a good idea to run the disk utilities (applications/utilities/disk utility) and run the repair disk permissions. I have found that this often solves these oddball problems.
Try completely restarting everything. Run preview before clicking on anything and try opening one of these items from the file menu. does it make a difference? If so, do "get info" on a jpeg image and see if preview is the default viewer for it. If not, that may be your problem. If you have another preferred application you may want to set all your jpegs to open in that application until you get preview straightened out. Best of luck!

How open a file and not showing window?

I write a script to do some work automatic,
for Indesign script, its application open method could open a file and not showing window,
the open method has a parameter [ShowingWindow] (if true, show the document window).
That is good a feature for me.
But with Illustrator, the application open method hasn't the same feature.
Open
(files as String,
[documentColorSpace as AiDocumentColorSpace],
[options as Object])
and for OpenOptions properties, there is not useful information for me.
Is there any other methods could do that?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank for your reply.

Am I the only one who gets exited out of everything on my iPhone?! I will open up Instagram and not even 2 minutes later it will close down. How do I fix this?! It's so annoying.

I will assume you are using a slower iPhone 4 on iOS 7 if you are experiencing such problems so frequently. You might already be trying this, but my first suggestion would be to double tap the home button and see what you have running. You might not be quitting any of the apps you open. To stop an app from running and slowing down your phone, after double-tapping, slide the preview cards up for apps you don't need to run.
