I can no longer save illustrator files, please HELP?

I have work saved on my mac that for some reason can no longer be saved as a illustrator file, to be honest there is quite a bit. I can save it a EPS or PDF but not Ai. Does anyone one have a solution for my problem? Or can i just save all work as EPS what effect will this have in the long run?? Cheers guys.

Hi Jacob
I have tried searching for them files in spotlight but nothing of that file name is found. I have also tried holding the command buttons mentioned when illustrator starts up but still no joy i cannot save ai files in my first user account. I have also tried go to folder, still no joy. The folder with illustrator settings cannot be found...
Should i just save all work to disk and then delete the first user and start again in the user where ai files can be saved? Or should i remove illustrator, reinstall and look for the folder again?
Could you please in simplest form tell me how to find the folder in question, so that i am not missing something in my stress...
I appreciate your help with this matter jacob and your patience...
Semiproflea..

    Please help me :(

    I hoping you can provide more information. v$log should not return information on standby, V$STANDBY_LOG will.
    Are you preforming the query on the primary or standby side?
    What version of Oracle are you using?
    Why do you need to remove the standby log?
    You should only have to clear a logfile if it has become corrupt, what make you think this is the case?
    If you can provide more details if would be very helpful.
    Best Regards
    mseberg
    Since you have posted the exact same question in the GENERAL DATABASE section and refuse to supply version information there you really have provide more details before anybody will help you.
    Remove standby redo log, get ORA-00600

  • I can't Back up my files PLEASE HELP

    Hello all,
    Please help me with this,
    I back my Q10 files up and did software update for the last update and then I tried to restore the file and keep showing this message..
    "The BlackBerry ID associated with this back up file doesn't match the blackberry ID on this device, the data couldn't be restored"
    Although am singing in with the same ID.
    PLEASE HELP

    Well, thanks for your kind and it didn't work Bro.
    What aa shame that Blackberry just ruin people life and work like this easy, blackberry knows the people over world using BlackBerry phones for work.. for work... for work... so it's the most important thing to get a backup and restore... am not asking them for more application or more stability in the system or anything else than backup and restore.. I lost my work their BlackBerry and really won't trust it again... because it felt out my eyes.
    Ridiculous.

  • I can no longer save PDF files to documents

    Until recently, I could download a bank statement, for instance, and save it to a folder on my hard drive. Now when I try to do this I can only save to online file. And today, I was told I was out of memory. I do not have a paid plan. I don't want to save or share these documents online, I do want to keep them on my computer like I have in the past. Any suggestions?

    Without any details it's impossible to even guess what your problem could be.

  • My iWork08 that was preinstalled on my macbook is now telling me that my trial is over and I can no longer save any files??  I really need to get this fixed asap.  I've had this macbook since '08 and never had this problem until last night??

    Any help would be really appreciated!

    I doubt that's it.  I've had it since 08 and Pages, Keynote and Numbers were all there and in full working order for years.  I did upgrade my OS.  But that was a few months back and I've used these applications since then.  I don't know why I would have to repurchse iWork after 3 years.

    Marc, you might want to post this question in the Basis forum, or ask a moderator to move this thread. You'll most likely get more qualified responses there.
    SAP NetWeaver Application Server
    Also you might want to provide more details as to what kind of document you're trying to open (e.g. in what transaction). And, instead of posting the pictures, just specify the message text and/or message class and number (e.g. V1 100). The error messages are unreadable on your pictures.
    And, better yet, ask your manager to get a qualified Basis admin.

  • I can't preview my avi files please help

    When i hit the space bar on my files it doesn't play the video . Somethings off or wrong... Need asistance

    That's good advice : avoid anything remotely like downloadster.org & get it direct.
    as they at least note:
    Clicking download starts a download manager to manage the VLC Player download. Additional software may be offered to you via opt-in or opt-out ads during the installation process. Learn More. VLC Player can also be downloaded free of charge from the developer.
    The download manager may present users with various software offers like the toolbar below, but none are required to be accepted in order to download the chosen software. Toolbars can install on Firefox or Chrome.Learn More

  • Can't open my flash file- please help!!

    Hi!  I just taught myself Adobe Flash and created a very intricate file with lots of moving parts.  I saved it and then went to improve it.  Of course it was taking forever so I got up from the computer to let it do its thing and I accidently knocked out my external harddrive.  A lil freaked out I exited out of adobe flash- plugged it back in and went to open my file.  However, it wont open now!  I've saved it a dozen times after I added each new part but I have nothing now!  Is there a way to get it to open?    The message that comes up simply says failed to open document.
    Thanks!!
    Oh I'm using CS3 by the way.

    Hi,
    This error normally pops up if a fla is tried to open in a lower version IDE.
    For eg. a CS4 fla is tried to open in CS3.
    But in your case its the CS3 only.
    So I feel the file some how got corrupted.
    Warm Regards

  • Can no longer save edited photos. get messages - "Nothing was imported" "The file or folders selected to import did not contain supported file type.

    Can someone help. I use Photoshop Elements 13.

  • Illustrator CS4 wont save files, please help?

    You can edit a file, go to save, close it down, then when you re-open it the changes made have not been saved?? No error message or warning pops up, and it all looks ok like it has saved properly, until you open it up again. This also happens when you use 'save as' command if you use the original file name. If however you type in a different file name - it saves ok. But obviously that is not great as you cant now trust or rely on the save mechanism of the programme, to make sure any changes to artwork have been stored!! I have never seen an issue like this, it is worrying, I hope somebody can help?
    Thanks.
    We are running CS4 on windows7 - yes PC!!!

    We save in EPS, and its not just one file, its a variety of different files and it seems to be random as to which files it does it on, some work fine - some don't. And it can be anything from a minor text change to a colour change, it doesnt seem to matter on the change made, it reacts the same.
    The files are saved over a network connection to a large external hard drive.
    Its really puzzling and now starting to cause problems as we do a fair bit of work in it, and can't trust one of the most important features, and that any changes that have been done have been saved and stored!
    Hope maybe you can help with any thoughts at all.
    Cheers.

  • After the security update I can no longer save or save as in Adobe Illustrator. I tried the Rosetta Fix to no avail.

    After the security update I can no longer save or save as in Adobe Illustrator. The program has become useless. I tried the Rosetta Fix to no avail. How can I fix this?

    I'm assuming by "I tried the Rosetta Fix to no avail" that means you downloaded and installed the 10.6.8 Combo Update? Is that correct, Apple hasn't posted any fix so you need to be specific about what you mean.
    Please look over

    is that the fix you are referring to?

    One of the folders on my external hard drive has transformed into a unix executable file and I can no longer access my files. Is there any way to save the data?

    Wow, have seen Files do that, but a whole Folder as I recall!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
