Effects get deleted when document closes

I'm making an effect in illustrator, the end result looks like a dimensional bubble with an icon in the center. It's several things layered: from the bottom up I have a gray to white gradient, a solid color that multiplies over the gradient, an icon (solid white), a colored inner glow that multiplies over the whole thing, and then last but not least a couple small white highlights.
I've expanded the appearance of the inner glow so that it scales correctly. There are 27 total dimensional bubble icons.
Everything looks hunky-dory until I close the document. When I open it again some are screwed up. It looks like a display issue but when I investigate it's all janked up. They were all created (and re-created) the exact same way. Help! Why are some of them corrupting??

I've tried saving as an ai, eps, and pdf, all have the same issue. Using Illustrator CS3.

  • I would like to save only selective web sites in my cache, and everything else gets deleted when I close the browser

    Lets say I have a website called xyz, I would like to keep the cache from this site and have everything else deleted when I close the browser.

    The involved CSS code can be found in this file that you can open via the location bar.
    * chrome://global/skin/autocomplete.css
    Look for class .ac-emphasize-text and apply modified rules as you like.
    You need to add the !important flag to override rules.
    Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.

    The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    * Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
    * Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
    * Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
    * Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

  • My Music Gets Deleted When I Close Itunes

    Ok I am having a horrible time with Itunes, I have a lot of songs and about a week ago I rented a movie, which has never worked for me. When I went to play the movie my computer froze and I had to turn it off. When I turned it back on all my music was gone, not from my computer just from Itunes. Then I played around with it and I found out the my music gets deleted anytime I turn off Itunes. I un installed and reinstalled three times still no luck. I tried a couple of other things but to no avail. So please help

    when installing itunes, do you search your computer for mp3s(music)?
    I strongly recommend using a Library path like C:\Music\ as your Itunes Library,
    That path is easier to user than the normal one Itunes provides, because its short and also easy to find if you want to copy your music lets say to a mp3 player or a external hardrive.
    That way you can just reinstall itunes, go to edit->options->advanced (i dont know the exact english words) and set your library to your Music folder.
    Now you can simply add your folder to your library (make sure you uncheck "copy music to my itunes folder first, and afterwards recheck that option if you need it - I am unsure if Itunes would just double your library if u didnt).
    Adding folders to your Library is in the Data menu.
    If closing itunes now it should save the library just fine.

  • Events in ical on my macbook get deleted when I sync w/my iphone5.

    Been having problems getting ical events to merge between iphone5 and macbook.  After some suggestions from the community, I discovered I have no icloud in ical system preferences, and events scheduled in ical on macbook gets deleted when syncing to my iphone5.  Getting frustrated.

    You probably have your iPhone set up to clear out old events.  My guess is that the events that are being deleted have already occurred.
    Check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Sync, and make sure the events you want to keep are preserved.

  • How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo file on my computer.

    How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo foder on my computer (Pc win7).

    Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

  • I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes.

    I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes. (Firefox 5.0)

    @dmcritchie:
    ''How do you expect to keep cookies for certain sites, if you wipe out all of your cookies when the session ends or you clear the same history through the Tools menu''
    If you mean from session-to-session, I don't expect it to keep cookies. That's the whole point. Every time Firefox is opened, I want it to write a new cookie, and keep that cookie until it closes and no longer than that. (Perhaps I should clarify: I don't mean session in the networking sense but rather in the period of time when one starts using Firefox until Firefox closes.) The behavior I want is for it to be able to write cookies when open, but only for specific sites, and then forget about them on close.
    I should also mention that your responses are worthless to me because you don't explain anything. For instance, the quote above is ''not'' obvious from your reply of "Make sure you are not clearing cookies". You need to explain this; what is obvious in a reading for you is not obvious for everyone.
    Furthermore, how is "Site Preferences" related to "everything on the right-side"? (Not to mention that it's unclear what you mean by "right-side.")

  • Will the app specific files get deleted when i remove/uninstall an app from iPad

  • Downloads being deleted when Firefox closes

    Since the latest update of Firefox my latest downloads are being deleted when I exit the browser. What I have to do to get around this problem is to copy the downloaded files and past them elsewhere before I close the browser. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it again but the problem still persists. ANy help would be appreciated as its very annoying.

    I'm not sure why you wrote above: Cookies - OFF if you were clearing cookies.
    Clearing cookies that way also clears cookies (including Flash local storage), so I would have suggest that if cookies were included in that list.
    That is why I posted to check in Safe mode because that would be another possibility.
    To summarize:
    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear Cookies
    *do not clear Site Preferences
    Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies that have an allow exception.
    *Tools > Options > Privacy: History: [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History
    Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.
    Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
    Make an Allow exception for the ones that you want to keep.
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"

  • Email on the IPhone gets deleted when the email is checked on the PC

    Hey all,
    My boss gave me the task of figuring out issues on his IPhone 4G so here I am. He says when he checks an email on his personal computer, that same email gets deleted on his IPhone. We use Windows Mail and I'm sure it's POP. I've googled this in countless different ways with no clear answer so here I am in the Apple forums! He was also curious about saving excel/word documents but from what I've read, you're only able to email them and view them in Safari, correct?

    POP wasn't really designed to be checked from different computers/mobile devices, so this can indeed cause problems sometimes.
    His e-mail client is probably set up in a way that e-mails will be removed from the server as soon as the e-mail is downloaded to the computer (better known as checked).
    If this is the case: he can change the settings of his e-mail client to leave the mail on the server after it has been checked, either for a certain period of time or indefinitely.
    This might however be against company policy, because this will require more server space, if everybody will do this.

  • Notes get deleted when mailed

    Hi,
    I am seeing a problem with the notes app wherein when I mail the note (by hitting the mail icon at the bottom) it gets deleted. The note was mailed succesfully, but for some reason it disappeared on my notes list. Is anybody else seeing this?
    Thanks.

    Hello - I just posted a Q and am reading your answer here from a year ago. Maybe you can help me.
    I Have a series of notes I've kept the last several years on various topics. I just added a topic To a note on iPhone 5 I have had running at least 3 yrs (my point is it's kinda important note).  When I finished adding I was 1/2 paying attention and clicked the + at the top. That brought me to a blank page so I realized I clicked +. So, I clicked Done. That brought me to the menu of my notes - except the note I had added to was no longer there. DISAPPEARED. And, I am pretty sure I never clicked delete - but, like I said, I was 1/2 paying attention - however, if delete was clicked, it would have been after I clicked + and applicable (I guess) to that newly created + topic. But I really don't remember clicking delete.
    Now I have gone thru all my note topics to see if the disappeared note may have been added somewhere but it's not there. I then got the bright idea to turn on my iPad and look at Notes and sure enough the disappeared note is gone from there also.
    DO you have any ideas?? Or is this note gone forever? :-(
    THanks......

  • How come the year the album was released gets deleted when I edit the album name?

    When ever I edit the name of an album, the year gets deleted. Under "edit info" it says it is there but it never goes through to my ipod? This is the second time this has happened. What do I do?

    You might be able to do some of this with retaining the original information if you enter it into the sort ___ fields.  Never worked with those myself.

  • Automatically Clearing a Form When Document Closes

    I'm trying to find a way to automatically clear the information in a form without using a reset button. Our forms are used by many individuals, and this way the form will be cleared of data when the next person goes to use it. These forms will be uploaded to the internet on our website. I am sure there is a way to script it, but since I am a new designer user, I haven't been able to figure it out. Thank you!

    When we upload the form to our website, it is a static or dynamic pdf. When you click on the form, it will open in reader, or the full version of acrobat (whatever the user is using). Unless you remember to click on the reset button to clear the form, the form retains the data you have entered when you close the file. Next time you go the website, and again click to open the form, the data will still be there. There is no back end to this form - we do not want the data to be saved, just printed or submitted by email. I have tried this from workstations with just reader, and I still get the same results. Thanks for your input.

  • Presets and defaults get deleted when InDesign CS3 crashes

    Every few days InDesign CS3 crashes. I don't know why, but that's not even the issue here. The problem is that when it does, all of my presets and default settings get erased.
    Is there anything I can do to keep this from happening?
    If I save my default settings (by which I mean measurements, color palette, default fonts, stuff like that) as a workspace, will that allow me to import it all again when it does happen? Or will my workspaces get deleted too?
    This is getting really really really frustrating and I'd appreciate any advice on the matter!
    Shari+

    Read through the prior threads Peter posted. I see no solution offered. I
    too have had this problem on two separate workstations from the day ID CS3
    was installed. Intermitant, but it can be made to happen quite easily. I
    have never had a problem with printing, just opening multiple files through
    explorer.
    I spend hours on the phone with Adobe tech support and they also could not
    resolve the issue. Tried everything under the sun, including activating only
    the bare minimum fonts required by the systems, creating new XP user
    accounts, reinstalling the suite, deleting prefs, washing some files through
    INX, defrag, turning off all processes other than ID... nada... still
    problems. They gave up. So did I. Just living with it waiting for the next
    update.
    If someone has a fix for this, I'm all ears.

  • Resources getting deleted when trying to add at run time

    Hi All,
    When i am trying to add resources to another file at run time, some of the earlier resources are getting deleted. Please find the source code below:
    void CResourceIncludeSampleDlg::OnBnClickedButton1()
    CString strInputFile = _T("C:\\SampleData\\FileToInsert.zip"); // This File is 100 MB
    HANDLE hFile = CreateFile(strInputFile, GENERIC_READ, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL);
    DWORD FileSize = GetFileSize(hFile, NULL);
    BYTE *pBuffer = new BYTE[FileSize];
    DWORD dwBytesRead;
    ReadFile(hFile, pBuffer, FileSize, &dwBytesRead, NULL);
    for (int iIndex = 1; iIndex <= 4; iIndex++)
    InsertResource(FileSize, iIndex, pBuffer);
    CloseHandle(hFile);
    void CResourceIncludeSampleDlg::InsertResource(DWORD FileSize, int iIndex, BYTE *pBuffer)
    CString strOutputFile = _T("C:\\SampleData\\ResourceIncludeSample_Source.exe");
    int iResourceID = 300 + iIndex;
    HANDLE hResource = BeginUpdateResource(strOutputFile, FALSE);
    if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != hResource)
    if (UpdateResource(hResource, _T("VIDEOBIN"), MAKEINTRESOURCE(iResourceID), MAKELANGID(LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US),
    (LPVOID)pBuffer, FileSize) == TRUE)
    EndUpdateResource(hResource, FALSE);
    After completion of the execution, i am expecting output as 301, 302, 303 and 304 added under "VIDEOBIN" category. But only 2 (sometimes 3) resources are present. One resource
    is always deleted.
    Could you please let me know what could be wrong or any fix for the same ?
    Any help or sample source code is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kishor Reddy
     

    Make sure that all precautions mentioned in the
