How to delete saved templates in Illustrator CS4?

Hello,
Inadvertently I created hundreds of documents that were saved as templates.  In addition I saved them as pdf's, which was the proper format I needed.
I have been unsuccessful in deleting the templates (which are no longer needed and taking up hard drive space) by either the delete key on the keyboard, dragging to the trash (Mac OS10.5), or from the File menu.
If anyone knows how to accomplish this, I would greatly appreciate the information.
Thank you.
Mort

Mort,
I'm in CS3, so it may be different, but this might head you in the right direction:
My templates are in Macintosh HD>Applications>Adobe Illustrator CS3>Cool Extras>Templates. Follow the path, open the Templates folder and drag the ones you want to get rid of to the trash.
Hope this helps.
Peter

  • Brochure Template in Illustrator CS4

    I'm creating a brochure from the brochure template in Illustrator CS4. By default, it gives me 2 artboards with each divided into 3 sections. Also, the artboards are labeled as "outside" and "inside". The problem is, how do I know which side is which for each one. For example, as I look at the "outside" artboard, there is a left, center and right section, but is the right section the cover of the brochure or the left? And same for the inside? I'm confused. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    JP,
    The right section must be the cover, corresponding/opposite to the left section of the inside Artboard which will be the first (inside section) to see when you unfold the part with those sections (beside the left outside section still folded). A quick paper folding test should prove it.
    The left/right outer/inner section (that goes inside) should be narrower by the way, or something is wrong with the template.

  • How to delete a template from pages

    Hi
    Does anyone know how to delete a template fom pages?

    Pages stores those you created & saved as templates in (your account) > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates. The user's Library is hidden in Lion & Mountain Lion but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your user Library will appear about halfway down the list. Or you can choose Go to Folder from Go menu in Finder & paste this line in the box:
    ~/Library/Application Support/iWork/Numbers/Templates/My Templates/

    Apologies for the incomplete details. I am using Illustrator 2014. I saw the Adobe online training which have predefined templates which is missing when I installed the program. Thank you Larry for the answer.

  • How to delete saved login/password on your device

    How to delete saved login/password on your device without having to delete ALL of them and start over!
    I hated this, becuase if i accidentally saved an incorrect login/password, and deleted it, it deleted ALL of my login/passwords for all websites.  NOT ANY MORE!!!!
    you can delete one at a time and chose which to do so by opening your microb web browser (standard internet browser on the n900)
    then type in this address:
    chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xul
    then you will be able to scroll and delete INDIVIDUALLY the ones you dont want on your device, leaving all the good ones!
    enjoy.

    you cannot create a shortcut/bookmark directly with this. but you can go around it and create one anyway.
    to do this,
    open a browser to google or what you want.
    tap the + to create a new bookmark
    change the name to (ie-password files)
    change the link to: chrome://passwordmgr/content/passwordManager.xul
    and now you have a shortcut/bookmark so you dont have to remember the link.

  • How to delete duplicate templates in pages 09?

    I want to delete duplicate templates from "My Templates" but can't.  Tried to drag them to the trash bin but they won't budge.  Can't find a delete command on the menu bar, either.

    You can't delete templates or any file from within Pages, it's done from Finder. Pages stores those you created & saved as templates in (your account) > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates. The door to the user's Library is hidden in Lion but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your users Library will appear about halfway down the list.

  • How to delete a template on WLC

    Hi,
    When I add a template in a config Group, this template is send on the WLC.
    When I delete a template in a config Group, the config is not delete on the WLC. How to delete the config when I delete a template ?
    PS : I'm sorry for my bad english...
    J?r?my.

    Once a template is pushed to the WLC, the configuration is pushed to the WLC. You can delete the template on the WCS, but the configuration on the WLC will not be deleted. If you want to use a different template, you can overwrite the configuration on the WLC with the new template.

  • How to reduce file size in Illustrator CS4?

    Hi!
    I'm having troubles with the size of my files in Illustrator CS4, My files always ends with sizes near 100mb!
    I made some tests:
    Create a new doc (7x5 cm), type some text, save: 1mb
    Place an image (PSD file: 12mb), save without embedding: 8mb
    Embedd the psd file, save: 16mb
    Delete psd image, and place JPG (2,5mb), save without embedding: 8mb
    Embedd the JPG, save: 15mb
    I0m using the save with compression option.
    If I uncheck the compatibility with PDF, then my file goes from 15mb to 8mb, but it's too big anyway, my image is only 2,5mb!
    I don't know, I think I'm doing something wrong or illustrator is the most inefficient program that I ever use.
    Why if my file without the image is only 1mb, and my JPG only 2,5mb, when I put them together the .AI goes to 15mb???? that's 500% the real size of my files!
    Please I need help with this.
    THANKS !

    Think about it for a minute and you might find the answer yourself?  Ok perhaps it has something to do with the fact that a 2.5 mb jpeg, which is a compressed file size, is something like a 15 MB uncompressed file. I know but it is a compressed file but Illustrator has to uncompress it and make it pdf compatible turn off the pdf compatible option and see what happens.
    I just tried it myself and sure enough a 4.1 jpeg place in AI makes the file 13.1 MB the uncompressed image is 15.8 MB
    without pdf compatible the 4.1 mb file in AI is now a 1.1 MB file.
    It makes sense to me perhaps if you think about it it might make sense to you as well.

  • How to create unique shapes in Illustrator CS4

    First off....
    I am new to the Adobe suite of applications and also new to owning a Macbook Pro. I have been using a design program for Windows for many years.
    I would like to master the creation and manipulation of shapes using Illustrator CS4.
    As one example, how would I create the following:
    I want to end up with a shape that is similar to one-quarter of a full moon.
    Using my Windows program (not an Adobe product), I would create a line using a line tool, and then I would be able to convert that line to a curve using a shape tool, which would enable me to drag from the midpoint of the line and have it become an arc. Then, while still using the shape tool, I could click once to select one of the endpoint nodes to then click on an "auto-close" option which would add a straight-line edge to close the shape for outline and fill purposes (so one side of the shape is straight at this point and the other side is curved). Using the shape tool, I would double-click near the midpoint of the straight edge to add a new node to the shape, and then I would use the "convert to curve" option from within the shape tool to be able to drag this straight side towards the curved side to end up with the quarter-moon shape as desired.
    How would I make this sort of shape using Illustrator, and as a general question for learning, how can I learn all about how to put lines in the design space for purposes of joining these lines, curving any part of one or more lines and then filling or outlining the finished shape made from joined lines?

    > and as a general question for learning, how can I learn all about how to put lines in the design space for purposes of joining these lines, curving any part of one or more lines and then filling or outlining the finished shape made from joined lines?
    Well, you can read the documentation. That will be much more thorough and methodical than asking a random series of "how do I..." questions in a user forum. And it will take you
    a lot less time.
    > Using my Windows program (not an Adobe product)
    You can say the name. If there's actually anyone here who doesn't know other drawing programs exist, well, they
    need to. Your description sounds like Xara Xtreme.
    > I want to end up with a shape that is similar to one-quarter of a full moon..create a line...convert that line to a curve...drag from the midpoint of the line and have it become an arc...select one of the endpoint nodes... "auto-close"...double-click near the midpoint of the straight edge to add a new node..."convert to curve"...drag...
    A similar procedure could be used in just about any vector drawing program that draws cubic Bezier curves. A much quicker procedure could also be used in just about any program, by leveraging the geometric shape tools and path combination commands that are just as ubiquitous:
    1. Draw a circle.
    2. Duplicate the circle.
    3. Overlap the circles partially.
    4. Use one circle to "punch" the other, leaving the difference (the crescent shape).
    Here are two AI-specific differences I note in your description:
    Illustrator can't bend a straght segment by dragging its middle if the straight segment has both its associated curve handles retracted. Dragging such a segment in AI just moves the segment (and its associated anchorPoints).
    Illustrator displays fills on open paths. There is no option to turn off that often unwanted behavior.
    Again, read the manual (the online Help files). It will take you decades to learn the program by asking random questions on the basic use of the tools, location of commands, organization (well, disorganization) scheme of the program, etc., etc.

  • How to delete saved passwords in SQL Developer User Profiles

    Hi
    Can anyone advise on how to delete (or flush-out) saved passwords in SQL developer connections? I have a serious security concern about saved passwords at user level and need a quick method to remove them from the backend without actual user's intervention.
    An early response is highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    UJ

    I have a serious security concern about saved passwords at user levelIf you could share more about your concerns, it might help us address or alleviate said concerns. Basically if your user's desktops are secure, then so are the passwords.
    To delete them w/o user intervention you would need to delete their connections by removing the file(s) from their installs. To prevent the problem from happening again, you'd need to put down a new sqldeveloper.conf file in their bin directory that would keep them from saving passwords - example here

  • [OIM11g R1] How to Delete Request Template Management

    Dear all,
    As for the intro, if we create new request template with at least 1 role in it, OIM will automatically create authorization policy (request template management) with the same name. And for my current issue, I think it is caused by fault in export/import xml. I have one request template that is not synced with the one in authorization policy. The one in request template doesn't have any role assigned onto it. But the one in authorization policy has it. As a result, when I try to add some role on the request template, there comes pop-up error. So my conclusion is, this issue should able to be fixed if I delete the request template management in authorization policy. But the situation is, we cannot delete request template management. We can only delete user/role management. Any idea how to solve this? Do you know how to force delete it via LDAP or Oracle DB?
    Thank you

    Thanks Kevin,
    But we have something like this here. Is it because the version, or maybe we need to patch it?

  • How big is too big for Illustrator CS4

    I have been working with Illustrator for a little while now, and have been asked to create a piece of artwork 10,000 pixels wide, the height would be about 8,500 high.
    My understanding is that they want to use the on a very large sign on the lawn of their sales center.
    Could someone tell me what the size limit is for illustrator CS4?
    Thank you,
    Del

    Thanks for all the info.
    I have attached a pdf with some of the sign composition.  Everything except the tree object is illustrator vector, using quite a few layers. Missing from the pdf are two lines of text for the name and location of the properties, there is also a vector log that is missing.
    The tree is an 8.25mb jpg. I placed it on a separate layer in the illustrator sign doc. I’m making wooded areas (forest) around much of the perimeter using this tree. I also speckle  much of the properties with trees.
    I am using hundreds of these trees to do this, many are resized very small for single trees on the property lots and many are stretched and reshaped to make forests, with small trees add to that.
    Everything is ok until I get about 2/3s of it done and then I can’t save anymore and the file can’t be opened after that.
    I know I’m using a tremendous amount of space with these trees, (gig’s worth now that I think about it) but how small can I make the tree image size and it still look high quality?
    There must be a better, easyer way of getting the results I need.
    I’m not familiar with Document Raster Effects Settings, but I’ll be using physical size from now on.
    Thanks,
