HELP!!!! file won't open but could open before

ok so this file was opened a few hours ago and work was done on it. we went on and worked on other projects and now had corrections to do on it again but now it just won't open. in fact all of the files found within the job folder won't open.
i can create a new file and save it
i can open other job files no problem
but those particular files won't open and it causes my illustrator to crash.
wierd thing is that on other computers the files open no problem.
by the way i reinstalled illustrator and the problem persists! are there cache files or preference files i can delete or something to do to reset illustrator completely that isnt done when i uninstall!?
this is done on a Mac Pro quad core, 4 Gb of ram, adobe cs 4, mac os x 10.5.8

The problem was font related!
we took all the system fonts from another mac and overwrote all of the system fonts in the problematic mac.
and BINGO
problem solved!

Help files won't open

I just installed PSE 7 on Windows XP Pro and the help files will not open and I can't connect to online resources through the program. Can anyone help me?

Hi Rick,
Open this URL: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PhotoshopElements/7.0_Win/
Clicking the help link from PSE7 will ultimatly take you to this link. Just save this help document by clicking the PDF save option on the top left of the browser. You can access everything in the PDF even offline. There is no difference between the PDF file and the online help files.
Regards.

Renaming datafiles in control files with database mounted but not open

Hi,
I moved a database (physical files) from one server to another. I need to modify the contents of the control files since the directory structure of the servers are not the same (and I can't change that).
I know I can use ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE to produce a script that I can than modify and run with the instance started, database mounted but not open, and that will recreate the control files. I don't want to do that.
I was also told I can modify the datafile entries in the control files by starting the instance, mounting but not opening the database. Then I can issue the (this is the part I need help with) ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE <file1> to <file2>. When I tried this it complains that <file1> is not found. Obviously the command I used is not the right one,,, what is the right command for what I want to do.
Thanks,
Gabriel

I have bridge open, but it opens images in Windows Photo Gallery

I have been trying to open some images, but it won't open them in Photoshop, If I double click on a raw image it opens it in Windows photo gallery. I have to right click to get it to go to camera raw, what has happened.

Sorry just assumed you would realise it was PS CC.
It was opening the NEF files in camera raw,but today it stopped and started opening them in that photo gallery, I don't know how to change it back. I went to prefences in Bridge and it has photo gallery next to the NEF files, but doesn't look like I can change them.

Photo descriptions disappeared after update to iPhoto 11 and the help file won't load, BBOD, Photo descriptions disappeared after update to iPhoto 11 and the help file won't load, BBOD

Event titles remain, but why did the individual photo titles change into numbers after an upgrade to iPhoto 11?
Why does clicking the iPhoto Help button pop open a new window and promptly invoke the beach ball of death which remains even with iPhoto closed but stops when the App Store app is closed?

When you installed iPhoto 11 did you create a new library and import your old library into it? If so that was not the way to upgrade the library. The correct way is to just open your old library with the new iPhoto application and let the application upgrade the library.
If efforts to repair the corrupted library fail you may have to start over with a new library as follows:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Origianls (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
The Help file issue might be corrected by running BatChmod on the iPhoto application with the settings shown in this screenshot.

Bought or previous apps not blinking open but staying open on new phone

I Have just a had my 3gs upgrade from my 3g phone and the p¡bought apps whetehr they be bought or on my itunes account don´t open, they blink open when you touch them but thats all, i´ve restored the phone via itunes and restarted the phone but same same, any clues. I´m english working and living in spain, could it be a registration issue?
Rob

If you have the same mobile number, but a different phone, then you have to login to MyBT, and manage your SmartTalk service.
If its the only phone registered, then you have to delete SmartTalk, and then start over again.
If its an additional user, then you need to disable that user, then re-install SmarTalk on the phone, after creating a new unique MyBT ID for that new phone.
This will create a new signup on your main MyBT profile, with your mobile number.
When you get your bill, you will see two entries against your mobile number, but with different Service IDs. One shows the calls made up to the point where you changed over, and the other will show the calls made on the new phone.
Basically, each new signup or change, needs a new unique Service ID to be generated

Help Files Won't Load In Web Broswer

We recently moved our web site and I moved over all of our
help files. Whenever I try to view these files through Internet
Explorer, the opening page seems to just keep trying to load (like
an endless loop). I am 90% sure that it has to do with a setting in
IIS because of the following:
1. I can view the files just fine if I view them in Windows
Explorer.
2. I tried creating a "test" group of Help files and they
work fine on another web server that I have, but don't work on this
particular one.
I am wondering if anyone has any insight on this? I am
running a Virtual Private Server with Win2003, IIS 6. If you want
to look at what the files are doing, please go to
http://www.basic-software.com/80help/80help.html.
This is a matter of urgency, so your reply, suggestions, are
greatly appreciated!

OK - Since no one else is responding on the forum to this, I
have an update -- I found out that if I remove these lines from the
opening page it will load my help files, but it doesn't show the
opening URL like before -- Any clue again as to why this works on
our other server, but not on this one?

Program opens but becomes unresponsive before opening a webpage

Firefox became unresponsive earlier in the day. Used alt+ctrl+del to close it. A few hours later tried to open it again. The window opened, but it just stopped working when it tried to load the page. It didn't even try to restore the previous session. I get a blank white window that won't respond at all. I was using an older version, so I tried to get the newest version. It does the same thing. I haven't added anything new in months, possibly a year.

Hi
Thanks for your immediate knowledge sharing, ya right JSP can be accessed as it resides in the server also I understand the HTML coding is more than enough for me to understand the values I need to pass to given the input type of fields with the FORM tag.
Having understood thus far, you people mention getting the HTML code but how do I get that programatically, it is that I can load the JSP/page using URL.getConnection and open the page in the browser, one way is doing VIEW SOURCE manually and getting the code, can you educate me on how to do it programatically to view source of the displaying page on a browser?
Thanks
Raja

Help File Won't Update

I am having a problem in getting an updated help file to show up in the program execution. The help file is <program_help/index.html>, and shows up correctly in both the Resources and Products Groups in XCode. That is, after modifying only some text in the index.html file the modified index.html correctly appears in the XCode editor. The path to the index.html file is (correctly) unchanged in the Groups & Files list. The info.plist also remains unchanged.
After a clean/rebuild, the correct modified <program_help/index.html> is located in the Contents folder of <build/Release/program>. However, when program is launched, either within XCode or in the Finder, the Help file accessed via the Help menu has not been updated, i.e., the older unmodified version of the index.html file is displayed from within the program.
I am obviously missing something - any suggestions will be appreciated.

I agree that it is probably a cached file somewhere. I have not been able to find it, though. I have trashed the ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui folder and any other files I've found that reference the program in ~/Library - but the wrong help file still keeps turning up.
I've even tried to explicitly modify the com.apple.helpui/TOCCache.plist entry for the program with the pathname to the correct help file, but as soon as I call the help file in the program the TOCCache.plist file entry reverts to the the old version of the help file in an earlier version of the program.
I doubt that any of these exercises should be necessary, though. There must be some setting in XCode that should take care of getting the correct reference for the help file. I've looked and can not find anything at this point.
One step I will eventually take is to remove all possible sources of the old help file and then see what happens.

Help file won't come up

Help file just began to say, "unable to find locale data files please reinstall? How do I do this?

Thanks for jumping in Tom. The app is the Alpha version of Trillian. You can find it by typing Trillian in your browser and then click on the "currulean" link next to the mac box in case you aren't familiar. I know it works on mac at least for some because there are discussions about use of the app itself.
I had someone else comment from the trillian end and they suggested checking console for details. There is a log for trillian pointing to not finding a library that is needed. Again since others have used the app, I think it might be my specific equipment.
I'm anxious to see what you find. Please let me know.

Currently cannot open pdf files when using firefox, but can open them in ie... have current adobe downloads..what could prevent opening pdf files such as forms on irs site using firefox

When attempting in firefox to open a pdf file such as forms on the irs site, I get a white screen with a black long oval in the center with a blue line inside the black oval.

Hi
What's your portal version ?
What response headers do you receive from the webcache port ? (using something like IEhttpheaders but for mozilla, maybe Firebug will help you to get them).

Firefox doesn't open, but is open in Processes in Task Manager, not even profile manager opens up for Firefox opens up. Please help

I'm using Vista, 32 bit - not even downloading the beta version of Firefox 4 helps; it downloads (just like the regular version of Firefox, 3.4) and I can install it, but trying to run it gives me nothing - no warning, no text; it just doesn't open up, but is still visible in my start menu, programs folder and in task manager. And not even profile manager opens up.

Can't open Keynote files on my Mac - but they open fine on other Macs

+I had this query in the Keynote 8 section, but was getting no replies - so I'm posting it here too.+
If I attempt to open any Keynote files, I now get this error message.
"Can't open file "+File path: file name+.key"
To clarify, the text in italics above shows the actual file's file path and name.
The file will then will appear on screen, but is unresponsive to any clicks or menu commands.
The files will open successfully on other Macs, so they aren't corrupt.
The same applies when creating a new file from Keynote: All screen menus / buttons are dead - all I can do is drag the main window around the screen.
I've tried to reinstall Keynote, but this hasn't resolved the problem. I've checked that I'm running the latest version (4.04 of Keynote 8) - and I have nearly 12gb free on my hard disc. I've also thrown out any Keynote related files I could find in library or preferences in case some application settings had been corrupted. (Having said that, I don't know if I caught them all - as I just used Spotlight to find files with the name Keynote.)
Are there specific preference / system files that I should look for and dump? Is there an easy way to do a complete uninstall of Keynote so I can try another install? Or is this a symptom of something else?
All ideas gratefully appreciated!

All the issues I describe in my questions around this time re: Keynote were actually symptoms of a soon-to-die laptop. The Hard Disc was corrupting, and Keynote was the first application to be affected.

I've set m4v files to "always ask" but it opens in the browser player anyway

Since one of the latest version, Firefox now has a built-in player for certain flash based videos, like m4v. Now, when I try to download such videos (by copy-pasting the direct url to the file into the url bar) it will just open that video in the player. I've tried changing it from always-ask to save file, but even that won't work.
Is there anything I can do to remedy this?

hello, firefox 21 and above now make use of the codecs that are included in your OS that enable it to directly play mp3 & mpeg files (also for html5 videos). in order to disable that, enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''media.windows-media-foundation.enabled'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false'''.
