How do I reconvert a pdf back to its original format?

Hello All,
Something strange has taken place when I either download a pdf from the Web, or create a pdf for one of my own proprietary files. Instead of becoming a regular pdf with the Adobe icon, they become a pdf in Illustrator format, with an AI icon. I can open them, but I have to work within the Illustrator format, which only allows one page to be viewed at a time; for example, if I have a 10 page document I have to close Illustrator and then open it again to view each page.
I have tried opening these AI/pdfs in Acrobat and then doing a Save As ... but the document still remains in AI format. What I'm concerned about is that I'm going to upload my portfolio onto a domain site, and that I may have technical problems because the pdfs are not in their original format, but in an AI format.
I have Vista Home Premium and Adobe Pro 8, which is part of my CS3 Creative Suite. Can someone out there give me some guidance on how I can correct this problem? All responses very much appreciated. Thanks.

Hello All,
I have followed your suggestions, and what happens is that there is no
option box to check. I have tried Save As . . . Once I'm in Acrobat, I
think that Save As . . . will reset the program correctly, but it does not.
I still end up with the Illustrator icon on the pdf. I repeat there is no
option box to check within Win Exp. I have Vista OS. Thanks for any
further suggestions to try and correct these file associations. Does this
require a registry cleaner?

How do I restore an image back to its original form?

Is Aperture 3 supposed to be non-destructive? If so, how do I restore an image back to its original form? I'm out of undo's and I need to get rid of some stuff.

You have a few choices here
1. The "m" key will show you the master image without adjustments, not remove them;
2. Right click an image and using the contextual menu, select reset all adjustments, removes them;
3. Same menu, create new version, allows you to have multiple versions each with unique adjustments, B&W, cropping etc.

Pictures was block how can i retrive it or back ot its original settings?

its started went i want to erase one of the tag pictures for me,i want to delete it because i dont know that person.but i dont have the way to erase so i decided to block it.unfortunately all my pictures in my albums was not viewed by myself.how can i back it to original settings?thank you and more power!

*A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar.
*A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Open the Media tab of the "Page Info" window.
*Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
*You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions

How to MATCH FRAME a SUBCLIP back to its ORIGINAL CLIP?

What is the trick here in fcp to matching back into the source clip from which a subclip was made?
Is there a keystroke/button that will locate the master clip?
Thanks.

Hey! In a round-about kinda way, removing sub-clip limits seems to work...have to reload the subclip entry into the viewer window, but at least it shows the rest of the master clip.
Any other ideas out there?

You can download everything you purchased from the iTunes Store without having to pay again:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Here is the procedure for your reference, using iTunes 10.7. The procedure and screenshots for newer versions are contained in the above link.
This assumes what you purchased is still available in the Store.
Open iTunes and click on iTunes Store on the left
On the right you will see this
Sign in with your Apple ID, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.

You have created a link to another part of your book but how do you get the reader back to the original page?

Using iBooks Author to make a book you have created a link to another part of your book but how do you get the reader back to the original page?

Asking me to be verbore is a dangerous thing :-)
When you eneter information into iTunes Producer for uploading, the info must match what is in the internal metadata. In this case, the book is called Mississippi, but in iTunes Producer it is spelled Misssissippi. There is an extra "s". This will cause an error.

How do I eliminate the new Facebook "timeline" and go back to the original format

how can I get rid of the new "timeline" on Facebook, and go back to the original format ? I was told how to do it in Chrome, and it worked, but I prefer to us FIREFOX. thanks
I am using the newest Firefox and running Windows 7

You are correct. It is not fair to blame Firefox for something the idiots at Facebook have done. I have not been impressed by all of the "new" features or changes they have made over the short 2 1/2 years I've been on Facebook. This was just the last straw. Too bad I was fooled into thinking that the latest change was fixable. With all the posts I've read expressing hatred of the new Timeline you would think they would have gotten the message. Perhaps they want folks to stop using it. Or perhaps they think that folks will scream for awhile then knuckle under. Just like the politicians, huh? I don't NEED Facebook. Thanks.

My mac book pro colors have turned brown instead of blue how do I get it back to its original state?, My mac book pro colors have turned brown instead of blue how do I get it back to its original state?

How do I turn the colors back to the original colors that came on the MacBook. Somehow all of my colors look to be disorganized for instance blue is gold etc. I am not sure how this happened but I really would like it fixed any suggestions?

Your first choice is to go to System Preferences>Displays>Color. Make sure that your profile set is the appropriate one for the MacBook Pro, which should be "Color LCD".
I'm going to skip all of the normal suggestions of resetting this and that, because from what I've researched this in the past, and it appears you have an issue with either the graphics chip (low probability) or a worn cable causing one of the color channels to be bad or your LED screen has a problem.
In other words, it's probably hardware related.

In IPhoto or IPad, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with only edited photos. How do I keep it in or get it back to its original album?

When using IPhoto for IPad, can I move photos from one album to another? For instance, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with other edited photos. How do I keep it in or move it back to its original album?

That will depend on the kind of album your photo is in.
Most albums in iPhoto are created automatic by the way you are using and editing your photos, see: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/1.1/#blnkb9b1e2a
When you edit your photo, the edited copy is added to the automatic "edited" album and the view switches to he edited album. But the photo should stay in its original album - do you see something different? Only if you want the edited photo in the camera roll and the photo strea as well, you have to save the edited copy to the camera roll again after editing, otherwise the camera roll will show the original and not the edted version.

Thank you for your questions/advice. The answer for your 1st question is yes, and "may be" to your 2nd question. Fortunately, I had exported the recently developed photos into my external head drive. After reverting back to the original catalog, I have re-imported those developed photos. Now everything is restored. I need to learn more about the subtleties in using the Lightroom.
Thanks again,

How to restore a 3TB imac fusion drive back to its original state?

I bought a 27"imac with a 3TB fusion drive which stopped working. Ended up having to boot from the internet and since my HD stopped working and wasn't being found by disk utility I erased it using Disk Utility an re-installed OS X. Did OSX automatically get installed in the 128gb SSD drive (under disk util i only see one macintosh hard drive with another one under its first branch but there is no separate ssd drive)?
Also, since then my imac's hard drive haven't stopped making a constant cranking noise as if it's working non-stop (unless the computer goes into sleep mode). Is this normal? Anything I can do to bring it back to its original state?

The problem is that I bought my computer in the US and brought it with me to my home in Brazil and over here it's going to take a long time to get it fixed or repair/replace parts if it's necessary. Any other procedure I can try on my own before throwing the towel and taking it in?
Thanks
