Mac based, Illustrator CS3. I've suddenly lost the ability to grab the corners of boxes and scale in illustrator - i must have accidentally turned something off - can someone tell me what i did worng and how to fix it? It's driving me crazy to scale mechanically.  I want to grab and drag! Please? Thank you!Mac

Hit these keys Command Shift B at the same time
It is a toggle for View. Show/Hide Bounding Box
The most common accident in Illustrator everyone does this.
Also be aware of command H for hide edges another accident often happens.

    #30 - Deck recognition after Tiger Upgrade:
    Shane's Stock Answer #30:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1063600&#1063600
    The credit for this goes to Bob Sidebotham:
    I was just walked through a repair procedure by an Apple Care person, and it fixed my camera recognition problems (I have a Canon XL1 and sometime after installing Tiger, then 10.4.1, various patches (including Quicktime 7.1) and the latest Desktop Video patch, I've been unable to use the camera with Final Cut Express, and attempts to capture would result in a FCE crash).
    The workaround is to download Quicktime manually, after removing the "receipts" which indicate that it is loaded. Specifically, I was told to do the following:
    1. Navigate to Library -> Receipts on your main drive (not from your personal folder).
    2. Remove all files of the form QuickTime*.pkg, where "*" is a version number. E.g. QuickTime600.pkg, QuickTime650.pkg, Quicktime700.pkg and QuickTime701.pkg. This simply tells your system that those packages are not installed.
    3. Go to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/downloads and click on the "download Quicktime" link. DO NOT USE THE AUTOMATIC UPDATE UTILITY. Download QuickTimeInstallerX.dmg. Double click this file (probably on your desktop) and then invoke the installer by double clicking QuickTime701.pkg.
    4. After your computer reboots, you should be able to restart FCP and see your camera.

  • HT2492 ML Dashboard Calendar widget has lost the ability to change the date.

    In ML the Dashboard calendar widget has lost the ability to change the day to other days. You can still navigate to different months with the arrow keys, but clicking on any day has no effect. I have not found a keystroke/mouse combination that allows the date to be changed from today's date.
    This is a useful function for me, to quickly be able to see what I have scheduled on any day. Now I have to open iCal, which is annoying.

    You are correct that there is no way to sort jobs in the print queue window in Snow Leopard. This is to be considered expected behavior. In other words, that's the way the software engineers intend it to work in Snow Leopard. You should provide Apple with feedback as to what you want. You can file a report at: _http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html_.

  • HT1694 When will IOS be updated to "re-add" the ability to designate the number of emails retained on the device?

    Please return the ability to designate the number of emails to an IOS device.

    No one here would know the answer to your question since we are all users.

  • CS4 crashes when I send to print and pen tool loses the ability to keep the attributes of a multi-stroked line.

    Using Illustrator CS4 (can't upgrade because the office I am contracted with will not upgrade) on a Mac running Mavericks 10.9.5 (just upgraded from 10.6). CS4 crashes when I send to print (I've been saving as a PDF and printing that). Also, the pen tool loses the ability to keep the attributes of a multi-stroked line.

    Thanks, Larry. I should have remembered the "…Basic Appearance…" thingy. I've tutored enough people in Illustrator—it just never occurred to me. As for the printer, I'll give that a shot. I'll fumble my way around in that; not sure exactly how to go about doing it, but I'm game. Thank you for your help.   — Jim

  • What has happened to the ability to choose the size of a photo in Photo before emailing it?

    I've been using my iPhone to take pictures of documents and then sending these pictures to myself via Photo.  Suddenly the ability to chose the photo resolution before emailing it has disappear.  What goes here?   Is this the result of having upgraded by system?  If so how can I get back to my original system?  Can anyone suggest another way to chose the photo resolution?  Thanks.

    That option is only available after selecting the photos, composing the email and hitting the "Send" button.

  • I keep losing the ability to use the microphone to input notes how can I turn the microphone back on

    I keep losing the ability to use the microphone When creating or adding to existing NOTES App that came with my iPhone five how can I turn the microphone back on? It reactivated for a while after the new iOS 6.1 update but only for a couple days.

    I'm very sad about that. 
    Will Apple provide the ability to protect our children from inappropriate behavior sometime soon? 

  • HT1476 My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones. I'm stumped :/

    My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones and a USB cord that works from the laptop won't work from 3 or 4 different wall boxes that work for others. I'm stumped :/

    Update: It seems as though the phone will charge if I plug it in and then turn it off.  It will not charge while the phone is on.  Also iTunes will not recognize it, so I can't sync or anything.  I read somewhere that it could be a fuse somewhere?? Or maybe the dock connector. Where is the best place to get this repaired?

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Recently a software update 7.1 presented itself on my phone. Since attempting to download it, I have lost the ability to search the internet while away from my computer. As well I can't call an one. And they can't call me. The 7.1 update keeps popping up.

    Since attempting to download the latest update of 7.1. the download confirmation showed a pop up saying; unable to install. Can't re attempt to install. Lost internet ability when away from computer and I can't be called, nor can I call anyone. Please, can anyone help me with this? I'll even go back to what I had, had before attempting the 7.1 download.

    Sounds like your only able to use Wifi on your device currently which indicates you have lost network connection with your cellular provider ....you can call them to troubleshoot this but one common issue in some countries is that if you are on a 3G only network this can become turned off after a software update...go to settings > cellular/mobile > and see if enable 3G  or enable 4G/LTE is off or on try turning it on and then power off phone and on again and this will probably fix it, so you can make calls etc and use the internet away from the computer.  As for the update always do an itunes backup first and they make sure you have long enough for this update to run through on wifi and then try it again.  Good Luck

  • Has anyone else lost the ability to type the number one?

    I cannot type number one anymore- it works absolutely fine in every other app on my computer. Just arrived with the last update. I've copied in another app which is insane but I've encountered a site where I can no longer work around.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

  • If I make work in Premiere CC but lose access to CC, do I lose the ability to open the file and edit my work?

    I'm currently using Premiere CS6. Premiere CC looks appealing in terms of the updates, but not the payment model. If I can't pay for CC for a while, or switch to another program one day, will I lose the ability to open any of my Premiere CC files? It's shocking how often I go back to an old project that was made in an ancient program that I no longer use, but because I forever own that software, I'm always able to open the file up and make whatever changes necessary so I can bring the file into a more current program. Is this workflow lost if I lose access to CC? If this is the case, I may have to stick to CS6 just because I have the disks and know I'll always be able to install the programs and access my files.

    New PROJECT files, and SOME data files (such as InDesign ???) will not open in earlier programs... industry standard files (such as JPG) will open in any program
    For more information about a specific program, you will need to ask in that program's forum
    If you will start at the Forums Index https://forums.adobe.com/welcome
