How to Stop Lines From Editing: Creating/Altering

I noticed that Illustrator tends to edit allot of things that I create and try to fix, and my goal is to make everything as natural as possible without the interference of this unwanted editing. I have multiple questions under this category. 
While painting lines with my Intuos Pro tablet, I use the pressure settings, and I have the paint settings set for no smoothing and the lowest fidelity.  This allows my lines to not do their own funky thing when I draw them, but yet it still seems to change little things here and there.  For instance, sharp point edges i draw still become slightly rounded.  This is probably one of the most pesky things. Say for instance i draw a bunch of continuous sharp points in a row with one single line, like monster teeth or something, most become slightly curved. The smaller I make them, the more the problem occurs. Big isnt a problem, but in detailed drawings its a hassle. Also, unwanted and intentional curves get filled in sometimes depending on the intensity of the curve's angle.  Finally, lines still have a tendency to slightly change their shape ever so slightly. 
When editing lines with the direct selection tool, when i pick an end point and delete it from a drawn line, that suddenly changed the whole shape of the line i drew.  This is especially a pain with lines that feature allot of bumps and curves, resulting in points throwing off into new directions.  Even the thickness of the line changes. Parts can become skinnier, and fatter.  I'm not sure if this has to do with the fact that i used the pressure option with my tablet since thats how i drew the line, and its creating its own pressure points throughout the line?  I also double clicked on the direct selection tool and there is an option under its settings about altering or what not that is check marked, but its greyed out and wont let me choose it. 
In the end, I just want to draw things how I want them, and be able to edit without unwanted reshaping.  

I feel as though then pressure is best used for painting an object, rather than making an outline with it as well.  I'm assuming ill have better luck if i just created lines with a fixed setting, rather than the pressure. The whole deleted points affecting my lines things, sounds like it will still happen, but if my lines are the same fatness then that will be alright to some extent i suppose.  If i wanted perfect lines I'd just use the pen tool, but the time it would take would be unnecessary and pointless.  Its a shame, the problems I encountered seemed like there would be some sort of fix for something so silly.  But thank you so much though!

    Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
    Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
    I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
    I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
    Thanks again..
    Harv..

    Just started getting about 300-400 emails per day from several fraudulent Addresses to my icloud email and am not sure how to stop receiving them, or create a rule to have them all go to Junk.When unsub, I get more. Emails from my contacts are now Junk?! How do I fix this? I have over 800 emails since 5Am YESTERDAY!

    First, don't unsubscribe.  This only tells the spammer that your email address is valid and they will send even more.
    If this is only being sent from a few specific email addresses, you can set up a rules on icloud.com similar to the image below to send them to the trash.  This describes how to set up a rule: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a3f8a.

    I see.
    1. 192.168.0.0 addresses are not routable across the public Internet. Even if the whole world knows you're using that space, the information is useless. But if you feel better hiding it, OK.
    2. Internal doesn't allow communications with a physical network either. Only the external type does.
    3/4. Your problem is not really with Hyper-V. It's with IP.
    Your machines are all able to communicate with each other because they're on the same switch and the same subnet. No gateway is required. If you have a computer with an IP of 192.168.1.8 and its subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, then it will be able to communicate
    with any computer on the same switch with an IP of 192.168.1.anything. It's when they need to talk to computers off of that subnet (anything that doesn't fit the 255.255.255 mask) that they have a problem. For that, you need a gateway somewhere. You can't
    use "DC" for the gateway because it's not performing routing services.
    You have two choices.
    One is to use an external switch so that your guests are directly connected into your physical network. That will take over your WiFi adapter, so you'll probably want to set the share option so your Win8.1 box continues to function. Then just use a common
    IP subnet with everything else on your home network.
    The second is to set up a software router. If you are using an internal virtual switch, then this has to be in the Win8 environment. I might be mistaken, but I think that
    Internet Connection Sharing would even work for this. If you are using an internal virtual switch, then your Win8 system should see two (or more) adapters. One of them is the physical adapter (we'll call it wNetAdapter) and one would be the virtual adapter
    (we'll call it vNetAdapter) it uses on the virtual switch. Once you set up ICS, you would have all of your VMs use the IP address that you assigned to vNetAdapter as their gateway.

    How to stop Mail from selecting addresses from the list of Previous Recipients?

    This is a related question.
    I deleted ALL my previous recipients and when I create a new e-mail it STILL is getting addresses that I don't want - they pop up and I don't know how to stop this!
    I switched from one ISP to another - I deleted the old e-mail account in MAIL - I DID use the same name on the account - is that why it keeps bringing up the old address? 
    ARGH!

  • How to stop iPad from transferring apps to Mac?

    First off, let me state that I have iCloud backups of the most important app data and I don't care that I don't have backups for the rest. I don't care that those apps might one day be gone from the App Store. I don't care about saving my game data.
    What I do care about is that I shouldn't be forced to have a backup of ALL the apps on my iPad/iPhone on my MBP, which didn't come with unlimited storage space.
    I think at one point I was asked by iTunes if I wanted to transfer the purchases to my Mac (or if I wanted to backup the apps? I don't remember) and I foolishly clicked yes. Now, even though I have clicked on "Rest Warnings" multiple times, iTunes still insists on copying all the apps to my Mac without asking me if I wanna do it.
    I saw some suggestions about creating empty folders and stuff but I don't wanna do that. It just doesn't make sense that Apple doesn't give us an option to NOT backup our apps to our Macs. I thought the point of having an App Store where you can download your purchases anytime you want is so that you don't have to keep everything on your Mac.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Keywords: how to stop iPad from copying apps to Mac, how to stop iPad from backing up apps to computer, how to prevent iPad from syncing apps

    I hope you get a solution soon. I've been having this problem too. I under any circumstances don't want my apps on my computer either, I remember when I bought my first iPad iTunes used to have an option to choose whether or not to sync/transfer apps but now its gone and it drives me crazy everytime I want to transfer music. I remember this option was Under the tab "Apps" in the device and under the Apps list. It was a check box like the ones that the Music and other library syncing currently have. But i havent seen it in a while. Apple really screwed this up.

  • I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad.  As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message.  I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

    I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad.  As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync.  I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed.  Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

    That can be a problem with the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder.
    Try to rename (or delete) the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder to see if that helps.

    Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
    I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
    When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
    Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
    Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive.

    How to stop mail from recovering the same message over and over again to the extent that it has wiped out all start up disk memory?

    You need to find and delete (move to the Trash) the offline mail cache (.offline cache.) It's a hidden folder (files and folders with a preceding dot are hidden) inside the Mail folder (inside IMAP) in your user library. Since it's hidden, in order to see it run the following command in Terminal in Applications>Utilities. Hit return/enter once you have pasted in the command.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true ; killall Finder
    To reverse this and hide all those hidden files and folders again
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false ; killall Finder
    Leave hidden files/folders enabled until you finish emptying the Trash so you know it's gone.
