    Run the cleaner, reinstall.
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    And don't bother with running any updates unless you really need them or they fix a critical issue relevant to your workflow.

  • "An unknown error has occurred" every time I try to save my work in cs6.

    Basically what the title says, is there anyway to fix this without closing the illustrator file as i do not want  to lose any progress on the work i've already completed.

    Daman,
    There may be different causes.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • FCP quits every time I try to save!  Help! Please!

    Tonight, every time I try to save a current project that I have been working on for a few weeks now (up until now all was fine) FCP v5.1.1 unexpectedly quits on me. I am able to open the project and play and edit my sepquence but it will not allow me to save, it just up and quits on me, can any one out there help.

    maybe something screwy with the project file, try "Save As..." and save it under a new name, will that work?
    aletrnatively, with the browser window active, but nothing selected within it, choose File > Export > XML
    and then double click that exported XML to open it back into FCP ... in the Import XML dialog change the Destination to (Create New Project), and leave all the other options checked.

    Same thing happens when i click restart.
    No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

    Did the crash reporter send any crash reports?<br />
    You can see the crash reports in this folder:
    "C:\Users\&lt;user&gt;\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
    See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br /><br />
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]<br /><br />
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"<br /><br />
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br /><br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox<br /><br />
    If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

  • Please Help!!  "A File I/O Error Has Occurred" every time I try to save...

    I'm working on a postcard design for print purposes with several embedded images and text elements. I've saved successfully several times early on, but suddenly, every time I attempt to save, I get the message "A File I/O Error Has Occurred". I need to get this to the printer, but can't make important changes now. HELP!
    Thanks,

    Crazy! Wasn't saving to a server, but to a 2-gig jump drive. When I saved it to my mac's hard drive, no problem. Is there a short answer to why that happens? I didn't appear to be out of space on the external drive...
    Thanks Scott!

  • Illustrator CS 5.1 freezes every time I try to save

    I just started using Illustrator CS 5.1 on a new laptop running Windows 7. (I have used it for over a year on an older computer running Windows XP with no problem). For the first month or so on Windows 7 it worked ok (saving was somewhat slow) but suddenly it freezes every time I save - sometimes it will eventually save - after 5-7 minutes - yes, I timed it...
    Help!

    To what folders are you saving? What are your saving options?  You could simply be running out of (temporary) disk space if you use the default My Documents/ My Images folder because your temp folder is in the same location. This could cause all sorts of performance issues. And then of course the usual suspects: Virus scanners and otehr tools causing excessive disk activity or trying to scan your file while it's being written.

  • InDesign 'save' window closes every time I try to save

    I am running InDesign CC and am having a problem saving. Whenever I try to save any document, the save window opens, then closes as soon as I click the text box or even try to click on a folder/ place to save the document. The program does not crash, just the save window so I am not able to save the document.
    I am running the most recent version of CC on Mac.
    Does anybody know how to remedy this?

    Ensure your InDesign CC is fully up-to-date.
    Try resetting your Application Preferences.

  • Howcome every time I try to export Numbers doc to excel the program crashes?

    I usually have no problem exporting files to excel format but every single time I try with this one the program crashes, I have tried moving the com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist file to the desktop, tried sizing down my table in the file, all to no avail. Any other suggestions?

    Duplicate the document and try removing content until it exports.  It's probably a bug but thi may help you get passed this problem if you know what item is the problem.  once you know remove the item and save the document, then try to add it back it.
    Also try copying the remaing content and paste it into a new document then add the content you had to leave out.

  • I've got Lightroom 3.3.  Every time I try to import photos from my iPAD 2, Lightroom crashes. Fixes?

    I can't import photos from my iPAD 2 into Lightroom.  Crashes every time.  Does anyone have a way to do this?

    Apple iPad 2 requires Windows XP with Service Pack 3 (SP3), or an upgrade to Windows 7:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/13282479?messageID=13282479
    XP SP3 update is available for free, more information here:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/help/learn-how-to-install-windows-xp-service-pa ck-3-sp3
    Make sure you backup ALL your data files and LR catalog files, etc. The only problem I encountered with SP3 update was loss of my ATI graphics card TV tuner. Apparently SP3 loads newer versions of graphics drivers, which may not be compatible with all cards. Unfortunately there is no way to "test" if your desktop/laptop will be affected, and MS does not provide the option to only install certain components (i.e. Apple iPad 2 compatibility update). In my case, reinstallation of the original ATI CD graphics drivers fixed the TV tuner problem.
    My best suggestion is to first check the manufacturer's support website for XP SP3 issues relating to your specific model desktop or laptop. The XP SP3 update is required by many new devices and software applications. If you intend to keep your current system and stay on XP, then it makes no sense to put off this major update. Upgrade to Windows 7 is an option, but many older systems have non-compatible hardware and software on them. You can run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to check compatibility here:
