How to reset Pen tool or changing it back to normal? (Adobe AI)

Hello everybody. I'm having a problem with the Pen tool in Adobe Illustrator and I don't know exactly how to reset it or make it function like the Pen tool in Adobe Photoshop.
As you can see below, when I'm trying to draw the shadows of face, hair and shoulders, it somehow fills unexpectedly and unwanted.. I just want to draw the anchor points first and then fill it with black color.. Just like in Adobe Photoshop CS6, see second image.
Any suggestions? I used Photoshop for over 4 years, and I'm not really that expert on Adobe Illustrator.
Thank you in advance!
Adobe Illustrator CC
The problem below.
Adobe Photoshop CS6
This is how exactly I want to make it work below.

Just apply the fill color "None" to the path.
See manual on how to apply fills and strokes.

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

IMAC OSX 10.7.4 Safari why does screen suddenly change to large print etc when I cam surfing the net and how do I change it back to normal size

Safari - Since changing from Leopard to OSX when surfing the net, my screen suddenly changes to large print/icons etc. How do I change it back to normal. It is driving me crazy

That's caused by the "Smart zoom" feature of the magic mouse. It's a Double tap with one finger to zoom and repeat to unzoom.
You can turn the feature off if desired in System Preferences > Mouse > Point & Click tab

I bought a new keyboard for my iMac (10.5) but the f1,f2,f3, etc. buttons don't work. Rather, f14 is the adjustment for brightness. How do I change it back to normal?

Certain older Macs can't use later version Apple keyboards.
Various aluminum models were compatible with later model
G5 PowerMac and iMac, while the older could only use older
model keyboards. Third party USB keyboards from a variety
of makers other than Apple may work OK.
Be sure the Mac OS X is updated to the last Combo and
then see if there is any other software update is available.
Not sure now (years have gone by) if there was a firmware
update applicable to the older Macs so they could use later
metal keyboards. I'd found several white USB polycarbonate
Apple keyboards to work with most of the last PPC Macs;
and bought spares as available, metal / newer didn't work
with mine. Several white plastic ones can work w/ intelmac.
There were keyboard model numbers (Apple) noted to work
with aluminum PowerMac G5, while others that look other-
wise identical (except number on keyboard) did not work...
Too new, and they weren't supported. Worked w/Intel-Mac.
Good luck & happy computing!

you do have to actually define the area to be bounced in the dialogue window that comes up - there are some discrepencies in the way that the program behaves like that,
Apart from the "Include Audio Tail" function, which can leave Logic bouncing for a very, very long time, there are generally, no discrepancies regarding the Bounce Locators:
If Cycle is enabled, the bounce locators will be set to the cycle locators.
If Cycle is off, and regions are selected, the bounce locators will be set to the selection.
If cycle is off, and no regions are selected, the bounce locators will be set from the Project Start to the project end.
It is smart to actually check that the bounce locators are set where you would like them to be.

If you get caught with a bounce that does not stop, Command . (period) should do the trick.

How to use pen tool to adjust audio levels

Hi,
I've been using the pen tool to adjust the audio levels in FCE. When I do, however, I get curved line segments (kind of like a parabola) between the audio keyframes. I'd like to get something easier to control... i.e. straight line segments. Is this possible? How would I accomplish this?
Thank you!

Add a couple more keyframes and adjust them so the line is straighter. You can drag the keyframes along the audio line & move them up & down to adjust the shape of the curve.
The default shape is curved in order to align with what the human ear considers a 'normal' change in audio levels to be. Human aural sensitivity to changes in audio levels (aka loudness) is not linear - it is more or less logarithmic in shape. That's why the curve.

How to enlarge Pen Tool?

When using the pen tool to make a path I can't always tell
when the little circle or caret or minus sign is activated so I can
close the path, expecially when it's over a color that is similar.
I work from 1280 resolution and that may be part of it. How do I
enlarge the pen tool?

Peter,
Actually I think that Lorva is talking about the pen cursor
showing the
circle when you hover over the closing point. If the monitor
is set to a
high resolution it is hard to see this specially if the image
is
complex. Lorva would like to have the ability to increase the
size of
the pen cursor. So the answer is no, it can't be done.

My screen picture has a negative look to it. How do I change it back to normal? I think I brushed some keys at the same time

Can someone please help me? My screen has a "negative" look to it because I think I brushed some keys w/my fingers at the same time & made it change & I don't know how to change it back & I've tried looking everywhere but can't find anything that shows me how to change it back. I also have Windows Parallels (a Virtual Machine) & it's doing the same thing on the Parallels side, too.

Touch Screen Pen Tool Signature on Form (back to hand tool)

Built a simple form, name, address and a couple of other text input form fields, all is well.
Added a graphic area for a signature. There is a button to click with "execute menu item" "...Markup tools > Pencil Tool"
This turns the Hand into the crosshairs so the user can "write" their signature in the box with a stylus on the touch screen.
Still all good, but I then have, or want an "undo" button in case they mess up. Menu Item "Undo" is not available,
and I have yet to find the Javascript call for undo as in __app.execMenuItem("Save");__. But the real
problem is I cannot find an interactive/button driven way to get the Pen tool back to the hand tool. Also there is a Save As and Print button
at the bottom that works great, given it is clicked with the hand tool. The end users are not going to be very saavy so clicking the hand tool
in the menu isnt much of an option. Any ideas?

No, and I even tried pressing the spacebar key to see if it was stuck.

How can I save my data and be back to normal operation.

Hello everyone,
I'm using P7 with Oracle XE on a stand alone computer, I am unable to connect to my Primavera DB, the issue started when my computer slowed down and i just restarted it...while disc checking computer delet some of the file. may be this is the reason.
I didnt loss my login name and pasword as this is standard as "ADMIN" after restarting the computer when i tried to login Primavera with same admin as lagin name and password this message is appear "Unable to connect to the database. Would you like to configure the database connection now?"
What is the best and the safest way to get back to normal situation where I can have all my data back, could anyone please help me? How to I back it up and restore to normal?
Thanks in advance.

You will be configuring the connection, it shouldnt mess with the database at all. You are making sure the connection between P6 and the database is setup correctly. When you click on the elipses (...) next to database on the log in screen, does it show anything under "Details"?
That being said there will be a way to backup/copy the database using the database utility not P6. With SQL it is fairly easy so I assume in Oracle it should be too. The database tool wont be application specific so you will need to look at the Oracle database documentation. For SQL it can be as simple as highlighting the P6 database (PMDB) and running the backup tool. You end result is a .mdf and .ldf which are your backup files. Don't know what Oracle's will look like.
Hope this helps.
