How do you select the center of a box in CS5?

I notice in CS5 that you can no longer select a box - say a picture box - click on the center and snap it to a guide or move to a location. You can only grab the edge of the box to move it. I'm sure this is a vast improvement but I don't like it. Is there a pref to turn on or off to be able to select an object at it's center? Thx.

Hmmm. ID doesn't put the old center dot in a frame anymore, at least not most of the time, but the center should still be snapping, regardless of where you grab the frame. I'm not seeing any necessity to grab the edge (though if you have the content grabber turned on it's not difficult to accidentally move the content instead of the frame). What are you seeing?

New To Illustrator CS4 - How do you select the Arc Tool to Draw Arcs?

PDF on Illustrator doesn't indicate how to select the Arc tool. Extract from toe pdf follows:
Draw arcs
1 Select the Arc tool . (HELP -- I CAN'T LOCATE THE ARC TOOL).
2 Do one of the following:
• Position the pointer where you want the arc to begin, and drag to where you want the arc to end.
• Click where you want the arc to begin. In the dialog box, click a square on the reference point locator to determine the point from which the arc is drawn. Then set any of the following options, and click OK.
Length X-Axis
Specifies the width of the arc.
Length Y-Axis
Specifies the height of the arc.
Type
Specifies whether you want the object to be an open path or a closed path.
Base Along
Specifies the direction of the arc. Choose X Axis or Y Axis depending on whether you want to draw the base of the arc along the horizontal (x) axis or vertical (y) axis.
Slope
Specifies the direction of the arc’s slope. Enter a negative value for a concave (inward) slope. Enter a positive value for a convex (outward) slope. A slope of 0 creates a straight line.
Fill Arc
Fills the arc with the current fill color.
Note: To see a dynamic preview of the arc as you set options, double-click the arc tool in the Tools panel.

You're welcome.
Can i suggest that you explore al the tools there are drop down menus and on the panels as well in the upper right hand corner there is a drop down with useful functions and options. Also look at the control panel under the menu bar as you change tools to see the option each tool has and also some tools have further settings if you double click the icon in the tool bar other have option if you click in the document window once you have selected them.
But the best advice I can give you is to buy Mordy Goldings book Real World Illustrator CS 4 he also has one for the suites, it is a worthwhile investment.

How do you select the ical calendar which an event is added to?

Since switching from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4, I cannot choose which ical calendar to add an event to. It used to be an option when you created a new event, but now it creates all events in a new calendar, called 'calendar', which I neither want, nor seem to be able to delete. There appears to be no way to select the calendar or edit which calendar the event appears in. This is important to me as my 'work' calendar is shared with multiple colleagues.
Can anybody help?
Al.

Perfect, thank you!

How can you select the "from" in Mail with multiple accounts?

Is there a simple dropdown to select the "From" field in Mail when using multiple accounts?
All I can find is a support page saying From is defined by the email account that is highlighted and active.
Thanks

Hoo,
When you hover your mouse over your name in the from field it presents a little arrow. Click it and it lets you select who you are sending an email as.
Also if your reading an email that you got say to your @iCloud.com email when you hit compose it will automatically select your @iCloud.com email to compose your email.
Hope that helps,
Weston

How do you select the turbo boost 3.06ghz option on the new macbook pro retina display

I was wondering how to get the turbo boost option on the 2012 Retina Display Macbook Pro of 3.06ghz for the processer ???? Need help

You don't select it as an option when using the macbook, it just happens when the system needs more speed. Also if you think you're macbook pro is "overheating" while you're using it, it really isn't because it would come up with a heat warning if it was overheating. Your mac will tell you when its running out of spec so when it gets dangerously hot, you will know.

Surround bounce - how do you select the number of channels?

When doing a surround bounce, Logic is always giving me a 5.1 even though I want a different number of channels. I have my surround setup selected in audio preferences, and it seems like it should bounce using that same config, but it does 5.1 either interleaved or split. I don't see any options for number of channels in the bounce window.
Any ideas? It seems like this worked in earlier versions of Logic, but with the latest I can't get any other number of channels.

Found where it's set in the app, but looks like it's buggy in 9.x. I went back and checked 8.x and it works fine there.
Anyone want to try it out? Under project settings->surround format, you should be able to set a format and then do a bounce with Surround Bounce and Interleaved selected. In L8, the bounce would be the number of channels selected in project settings, but in 9, it looks like it always bounces 6 channels regardless of settings.
If someone could take a minute and test it out, I'd really appreciate it - I'll be reporting it to apple but I'd like to make sure it's not just my system. Thanks.

How do you select the play length bar in an iphone/ipod?

Sometimes I have a single song file of a book which is quite long, 10 hours, so I need to be able to restart where I left off. It is easy to mess up and end up back at the beginning. I have noticed that sometimes Imusic shows a play back length bar which would allow me to go back into the middle of a long song, rather than start all over again. I can't figure how this play length bar is activated, even though I have seen it often. See the upper bar in image below.

When your music is playing, with the screen as shown in your first picture, tap the screen to make the scrub bar appear.

How do you select a single image with the keyboard?

I can use the "/" key to deselecting the current photo but how do I select the current photo with the keyboard? Usually the space bar is used for this but that displays the image. Is the only way to select the current photo by using the mouse?

OK, now that the question has been clarified....
Pressing and holding the Shift key as you move through the grid with the arrow keys will individually multi-select them, but that breaks down if you want non-contiguous selections, i.e. lifting off the shift key to skip a photo will cause all previous selections to be lost when you use the arrow key to advance. I think the only way for non-contiguous selection is ctrl-click.

How do you select and move more than one bookmark at a time?
Shift+Click does not select multiple items that are next to one another in a list because the items open in firefox before this happens.

Use the bookmarks library. You may use Shift +Click, and Ctrl + Click to create groupings of selected bookmarks to drag and drop.
* one method of opening the bookmarks library is keyboard shortcut <br /> Ctrl+Shift+B (Windows)
*see also [[How to use bookmarks to save and organize your favorite websites]]

HT3349 How do you select a sub-set of cells from the entire document so you can print only those specific cells?

How do you select a sub-set of cells from the entire document so you can print only those specific cells?

There is no analog to MS Excels print range. So the next best thing is to plan your data so that you don't need to use print range. The next best thing after that is to select the range of cells you want to print, then copy, the switch to the application Preview, and create a new document from the clipboard (select the menu item "File > New from Clibboard") then select all, copy then paste to the destination (maybe an email) .
You can also paste that portion of the table into another table (or a new table) by pasting values only

How do you get the count of number of checkbox selected?

hi,
plz tell me how do you get the count of number of checkbox selected?

Not sure what you are doing so I will attempt to answer your question. If have one question which can have multiple answers you have will recieve an array so you have to do getParameterValues("name") and move it into an array.
If you have multiple questions and only value will be selected do a getParameter("name") on each form element.
HTH, if not provide more detail.
