How do you manage all your vector and image resources?

I plan to reuse many images and vector arts I've created. As of now, if I want to reuse an image or vector, i have to oepn the file and copy/paste image vector. Is there a faster way than this? Is there a manager I do not know of?
Thanks!

You nissed an important part of the video if you hold the shift key when you drag and drop then the artt or image is embedded. If you do not hold any keys while drag and drop then it will be linked you have a choice.
The bridge offers you much more flexibility and information about the file as well include=ing the metadata, also you missed the point about the fact that as part of ID and Photoshop then have a panel, like any other panel, that accesses the Bridge, it is called the mini bridge. So you only would launch Illustrator and access the mini brif=dgte if it had the feature.
But since it does not have the feature like ID or PS then you need them both visible. I happen to always keep the bridge active in the background and bring it to the front when I need it with a keyboard short cut.
But as you are suggesting because you are not use to this work flow you have a hard time relating, but it is a powerful tool thaat allows you to work with many auto feaatures of PS, FW, AI etc.
All you have to do is read about the Bridge in the help files or check out the Bridge Forum and ask about the fetures and you will find it an incredibly powerful tool that will saave you time and many headaches.

  • How do you put all your photos and videos and apps back on your iphone, once it has been restored and updated

    Dear Apple,
    I just updated my iphone from my laptop using itunes and all my apps, music, photos etc.. were on my mobile. But when the update was finished, my phone did not have all the apps it had on before it had completely restarted and I tried to restore my iphone using my laptop but nothing had changed and all my things that were on my iphone were gone and I have tried to look on websites to get back my photos and everything but there was no answer to my question.
    Please help..thankyou
    Hannah

    First, you don't have to use such a large font setting, most of us can read just fine. Did you backup your phone before doing the update? Did you reload that update after you restored your phone?  All apps can be reloaded from the App Store if needed. Have you always used this computer for all of your updates and backups? Your music can be synced from your iTunes library again also. If you did not backup your pictures or videos to your computer, you may have lost them.

    Yes in the sense many members who posted the question dont have the basic courtesy of closing their threads with proper comments as to which suggestion has helped them nor do they reward appropriately.

    Yes definitely, only with the experience you can guide the members in a right path.

  • Q: How do you sync all open windows and tabs?

    How do you sync all windows and tabs? And if this is not possible, how do you nominate which Windows' tabs are sync'd?
    Sincerely,

    You don't have a hot-corner for that anymore.
    You use a gesture for that now. You can either 4-finger swipe down, or place the tips of your fingers in the center of your track pad.  Your fingers should be bunched up and touching each other.  To show all windows, expand your fingers, as if you were showing someone "5" on your fingers.

    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant when your shiny new Mac first starts up (not Migration Assistant later).

  • How can you restore ALL your photos back into your iphone after changing your icloud plan to 20GB?!? It ruined my photos and videos, and I don't even know if I have them anymore!!!

    Okay. I recently changed my icloud storage plan to 20GB, for $0.99 a month, to have more room in my phone. After that, I realized a lot of my videos were acting up and wouldn't play. I honestly don't know what I did, nor that I can remember, but I tried to play around a little with my phone to see if anything would work again. Then I ended up storing more than HALF of my photos and videos in my icloud storage, and now I can't seem to get them back into my regular iphone stream! I can't see ANY of the pictures/videos stored in icloud, but it tells me that I have 377 photos and 16 videos stored in icloud, and 2.2GB are used, and I could only see 33 photos, and 8 videos in my phone! I want to know how I could UNDO all this, and put EVERYTHING back in my iphone storage, and OFF of icloud! icloud confuses me a lot. I'll just stick with 5GB. HELPP PLEASE!!!
    And also, I want to know WHYYYYY I have to keep downloading my videos before playing them!

    That's fine.
    It takes forever to shut down and to star up (compared to when it was new with snow leopard) .. Some programs are now running slow (iMovie, Photoshop) and very often it just doesn’t respond so i have to turn it off the hard way loosing what I was working on.
    Have you tested in a fresh user account, or in Safe Mode ?
    A clean install is rarely necessary, and may not even solve the problem. If you plan to do a clean install and migrate, you defeat the purpose of a clean install.
    If you do a clean install you'll also need to replace your iLife apps from the disks that shipped with your Mac, they're on Disk 2.

  • How do you 'mark all' mail messages and then delete in Iphone 5?

    I cannot do a mass delete of my emails any more in iphone 5 - how do you get the edit functions back onto the screen once you have 'marked all' the messages?

    As Chgrist1 said, that is how it works. Having looked as how Outlook stores mail, and everything else. It is a wonder anything ever comes out that is useable. PST files are a mess. First thing they do is pull the email apart and store header, body and attachments is three different places.
    You will also find (most likely) that your accounts in Outlook were POP and the default in Thunderbird is IMAP. merging IMAP and POP files and folders is fraught with difficulties and dangers. It would be a brave developer that tried that in an import.
    In the case of IMAP all your mail is one the server, so import is not all that important. However copying a gigabyte or two of of outlook mail into your imap server could exhaust your available message storage space there and cause the import to fail completely.
    So If you want to do what your saying, first confirm that your not using IMAP mail. Otherwise your experience is most likely going to be exceedingly poor.
    If you are using POP mail, then changing the setting in your pop account to cause it to use the global inbox will make a single mail account appear, "Local Folder", with your outlook mail as a sub folder of that.
    Dragging a folder from the imported outlook tree to Local folders is not difficult, as long as you remember that folders hang of other folders, so your dragging them to a parent, not a position on the screen you like.

  • Security flaw update - how do you know if your iPad and iMac are compromised/hacked?

    Can anyone explain how one might know if their iPad or iMac running Mountain Lion has been Hacked.
    I always use my wifi at home which is locked.
    On my iPad,
    messages popped up two days ago that the password for my apple    me.com account was wrong. When I tried to rectify that, I ended up with Apple freezing the account.  I checked the software and it says it is up to date.
    On my iMac
    On Friday and Saturday, messages intermittently popped up about certificates for one of my email accounts on their outbound server (GoDaddy but not Time Warner). On Saturday, I installed the latest update, but I am still getting the certificate message for the GoDaddy email,
    Does this mean I was already hacked?
    Is there anything else I should do? 
    Thank you.

    Sounds like your Apple ID may have been hacked. If it gets hacked, it's entirely possible for the hacker to take control away from you entirely, by changing the password, recovery e-mail and security questions, or even enabling two-factor authentication. If they have done the latter, you'll never see your Apple ID again, as Apple absolutely will not assist in recovering an account that has had two-factor authentication enabled.
    Since you're unable to log in at this point, you'll need to contact Apple. However, keep in mind that they may not be able to help you. There's very little proof that you own an Apple ID other than the information that the hacker could have changed by now. Still, Apple is the only one who can help with this.
    Regarding the GoDaddy e-mail certificate, that's harder to say anything about. You'll probably want to contact GoDaddy support about that one. It's likely to be an issue on their end - perhaps an expired certificate, or a certificate that was compromised and has now been revoked, or a simple configuration issue.
    None of this is likely to be related to malware.

  • How do you transfer all your files to an external hard drive?

    I have an external hard drive and tried to move all my files and documents onto it. The guy at the apple store told me to just drag my user into the hard drive (the icon with the house next to it when you go into Macintosh HD) but it said it could not do that. So i tried to drag just one word document into it and it still had the error. I tried from a PC and it worked fine. Could it be that this external hard drive only works with a PC and Microsoft Operating Systems? Do I need to buy an external hard drive that is only for a Mac??
    Please help!!!!

    This is not unusual
    Quick question, have you formatted the drive using the mac disk utilities?
    If you need it to be accessed from both windows and mac, then make sure it's formatted as FAT32 or FAT Extended.
    If you uses osx journaled, then the windows computer cannot read it.
    When you've done this, then try and drag your files across.
    Two words of warning though.
    1 when you format a drive, you erase all data on it, so make sure you have copies.
    2 FAT32 has a max file size of 4GB, so if you have files larger than that, format as FAT Extended.

  • Hello gentlemen how are you. All your base are belong to us ????

    My X server just shut down leaving me with a black screen full of messages, mostly relating to vlc.
    In the middle of all this was the above message.
    Do we have a developer with a sense of humour or is this something I should be worried about?
    I never run the system as root although I usually leave a root terminal open.
    Bizarre.

    This is ringing many, many bells with openbox.
    *scratches head*
    *greps openbox source*
    -> grep -r "your base are" *
    Binary file openbox/.libs/openbox matches
    openbox/mainloop.c: fprintf(stderr, "How are you gentlemen? All your base are"
    Binary file openbox/openbox_openbox-mainloop.o matches
    ->
    Hm, maybe someone decided to get all funny with their error messages like the OB devs did... or maybe it was the other way around.
    The most likely cause is that this message is a SIGSEGV (segmentation fault) trap - a message that is printed to std{out|err} when the app crashes, since OB prints the AYB when it's crashed too.
    You can actually segfault apps manually with `kill -SIGSEGV <PID>' or killall -SIGSEGV <processname>'

  • How do you manage multiple users, iTunes and icloud

    I haven't figured this out yet.  I have an iTunes account, two daughters who buy most of the music on it but we all share the account.  We all have Macbooks and iPhone 4 or 4S.  I don't want to download their music and they don't want to download mine.  How do we blend iTunes, iCloud and our phones and Macs without so much cross-pollination?  I already have music in my library that has been downloaded since I got my new iPhone and activated iCloud and it's music they purchased.
