Have used Illustrator CS5 for months. now suddenly it won't work- says "insufficient memory to run application". Lenovo w700, windows vista. Illustrator CS4 works, Photoshop CS5 works, everything else is working fine, in fact they all get loaded together.
I found no solutions on the community board.
Can I remove Ill. CS5 without damaging  CS4, and then reinstall CS5?  And if so, then how do I reinstall it?
This is not fun.
D Lund

Nope, it opens a tiny little window, plus opening the floating tool menu
This time I did not use the desktop short cut, but used what should be the exec icon under program files, expanded the window and it worked!
Is this like taking my kid to the doctor-- I'm all better now daddy!
So what gives? Richard Lund

  • Been having iTunes problems for months - now it won't work at all

    Hi there,
    For the last few months, iTunes has been failing to update (halfway through download it throws up an error saying the update failed. Trying to update manually threw up the errors I've linked to below). So I decided to try to fix it at last, I uninstalled iTunes and tried to reinstall, during the installation I encounter the following error:
    http://twitpic.com/9azkja
    Clicking "OK" led to a few minutes more of it trying to install itself before this popped up:
    http://twitpic.com/9azkmu
    "Retry" causes the error to repeat, "Ignore" leads to the installation saying it's successful, yet when I try to launch iTunes, this happens:
    http://twitpic.com/9azkpa
    Followed by this:
    http://twitpic.com/9azkrr
    Trying to repair the programme causes the same errors.
    I'm running Windows 7 and haven't had any problems with other programmes that I'm aware of although Windows Update has been a bit dodgy for a while (some updates after downloading claim to be installed yet on restart Windows Update still identifies them as due to be downloaded and this process repeats over and over). I haven't made any hardware changes to my system lately and can't think of any software changes around the time the problems started or at all lately. I'm definitely running with administrator privileges.
    Any suggestions or advice at all would be very gratefully received.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I can't say I've had the issues myself BUT what I would reccomend is:
    1. Completely remove iTunes from your computer and associated registry entries by using a tool such as CCLeaner
    2. Make sure you are completely up to date on windows redistributable packages and other updates.
    3. Make sure you've selected the appropriate version for your computer i.e. x32 for 32-bit systems and x64 for 64-bit systems.
    4. I've just had a quick Google around and as I said above with the redistributable packages in particular look at Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Securty Upfate which can be found here:http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=14431
    For removing iTunes completely, it may be helpful to read http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    For your second error message about the entry point not being found, I found the article https://discussions.apple.com/message/11901253?messageID=11901253&amp%3b#1190125 3 helpful.
    Hope this helps,

  • I have owned Illustrator CS6 for years now, but all of a sudden it says my trial period will expire.  What is going on?  I do not want to lose my program in 25 days over something I had no part of.

    What is the price to upgrade to the new CC version?  I can't get any information on anything from Adobe.  I am so annoyed with their website, I really have lost interest.  I don't use the cloud, and only want to use 1 or 2 of their products.  The last product I bought, has now been taken over, and says my TRIAL will expire, when I have owned it for years.  It seems like the options are, pay monthly for everything, or get nothing. I'm not sure if this is designed for students, who can use everything, which is a really cool option, but not what I want. 
    I've always been a die hard Illustrator fan, but I have not been able to use other ADOBE products.  I am, or was, really looking forward to the new CC version. 

    There is no CC without the cloud and that is that. For you activation issue rtefer to this:
    Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later

  • I have used a website for years, now I get an untrusted connection warning. How do I progress?

    Using FF 9.0.1
    www.corp.delaware.gov gets me a "Connection Untrusted" note. Error code : ssl_error_cert_domain. Never happened before. Just used my wives desktop and it went through normally.

    Rename the file cert8.db to cert8.db.old in the Firefox Profile Folder to remove all intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored by visiting secure websites.<br />
    If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed file cert8.db.old unless you have user certificates that you may want to export first and import them in the new file.<br />
    Otherwise you can restore the certificates by renaming (copying) the file back to cert8.db<br />
    Firefox will automatically store new intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send them.<br />

    Hello jackhennessy,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below as an administrator:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    When you get to the step to uninstall iTunes, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step.  You can find the full article here:

  • I just updated the OS on my iphone4  and now it won't work- says 0bytes available

    I just Updated the iOS on my iPhone 4 from 4.3.1 to the latest update, (after backing up my data on iTunes) and now the iPhone says I have 0bytes available and need to delete some photos or videos..  I have tried deleting content from my iPhone, as well as re-setting it, and nothing works.  What could be the problem?

    Try hold down Power and Home buttons for 10 to 15 seconds.

  • TS3899 "cannot get mail" in iphone5 suddenly. been using iphone to check 2 email accounts for months now, one is gmail and not troubled. the other is thunderbird and i get this error message now. no settings have been changed or anything! ideas?

    hey all, I have been getting the "cannot get mail" error message on my iphone5 suddenly.
    ive been using iphone to check two email accounts for months now, one is gmail and not troubled. the other is mail from thunderbird and i get this error message now saying it is not responding. no settings have been changed or anything, it just suddenly stopped receiving mail on my device as of Tuesday afternoon.
    Does anyone have iny ideas about why? i have yet to update to the new OS7 yet, could that be it?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

    My IPad 2, IPhone 3GS ans iPod  no longer work with apple TV, I have 2 apple TV in my house and for he last 3 weeks the iPod was the only one we could use for appleTV now none of them works, the apple TV icon does not show up any more. Re-started everything.

    Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
    RESPONSES:
    1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC.  I simply used the same iTunes login and account.  I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store.  If I click "Download Previous Purchases"  text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
    2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered.  I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam.  Good response for you.  Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome.  I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
    QUESTIONS:
    3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download?  Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
    SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU... 
    I work in the computer support section for the Military.  The only problem is we use Windows , lol.  Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover.  I go back next month though I hope.  But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein.  Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself.

    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,

    Here's a positive thing: Windows viruses can't run on OS X, but they can be transferred from OS X to other PCs (only if you have them on the OS X volume).

    I have used Illustrator CS3 on my two try or three previous computers. Now I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a my new (4 weeks old) computer. Adobe does not allow me, but demands me to proof myself being an owner of Illustrator CS2 or older. I don't manage to speak English on phone, bad hearing, to fast spoken, odd expressions.What can I do? Is there a possibility to write a complain?

  • My Samsung SE-S084F dvd burner, used with lion for months is now suddenly unsupported. Why?

    My Samsung SE-S084F dvd burner, used with lion for months is now suddenly unsupported... how can it be possible? I can now read cd/dvd but trying to burn them gives me "Internal error". Disk Utility report: "Burn support: not supported".
    I burned my last dvd three days ago, running lion 10.7.3. The only thing I can think of is a software update done few days ago, something about java.
    Samsung says that lion isn't officially supported, but i've used it a lot and I know it works…
    Things that i've tried:
    1) reboot
    2) firmware update
    3) many different burning software including "drutil" from the shell
    4) I've tested the device on another computer (ubuntu 11) and it works like a charm
    Additional information (drutil info):
    Vendor          Product                          Rev
    TSSTcorp      CDDVDW SE-S084F      TS00
    Interconnect: USB
    SupportLevel: Unsupported  
    Profile Path: None
    Cache: 1536k
    CD-Write: -R, -RW, BUFE, CDText, Test, IndexPts, ISRC
    DVD-Write: -R, -R DL, -RAM, -RW, +R, +R DL, +RW, BUFE, Test
    Strategies: CD-TAO, CD-SAO, CD-Raw, DVD-DAO
    Any tips? Thanks.

    Adding other info, it's getting even more weird...
    I've tried booting from an old snow leopard backup, and surprise... the devise still doesn't work!!! same error!
    It doesn't make any sense...
    It's not broken but both SL and Lion on my MBP refuse to burn DVDs (they both burned a lot of them with that device in the past).
    Same thing using the other USB burner borrowed by a friend, so i'm sure it's not a cable problem... what does remain? Mac's USB hardware failure? Impossible. On my SL backup there was installed Parallels desktop with an old ubuntu virtual machine configured, i've tried burning from it and it worked...
    OSX (LS or Lion) + My MBP + USB Burner = fail
    Ubuntu + My MBP + USB Burner = success
    Ubuntu + Another computer + USB Burner = success
    The could be some "broken" low level hardware bounded parameters, used only by OSX. I've already wiped NVRAM and PRAM, are there any other things i can try to wipe?
