Illustator CS6 bug

I'm using Illustrator practically all day. I'm opening file after file and what I'm finding is that Control Tab stops working, then it's working again, then it stops working. It goes on like that all day long, everyday. It's been this way since CS6 was first released. I'd hoped it might get fixed but so far, the problem isn't going away. I'm getting this problem both at home and at work.

Yes, Control Tab on a PC. I'm talking about having several documents open and just switching from one document to another. Sometimes it simply stops working, then for no reason I can guess it starts back. It goes on like this all day so that when I press Control/Tab I don't know if it's going to work or not. It's happening on my work PC and home PC. The work PC is actually a Mac running boot camp, Windows 7 32bit. My home PC is a regular PC running Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. So the two machines are very different.

Illustator CS6, my quotation marks aren't working correctly?

Illustator CS6, my quotation marks are coming up either pointing in the wrong direction, or sitting on the baseline. I've restarted. I've changed the font. Tried pasting from another program.

Are you getting the normal 66, 99 quotes? Can you post a screen shot? You can also go into Menu>Type>Glyphs with the type selected to see the charactors or glyphs in the font you are using.

AE CS6 bug: Can't use any shortcut that includes the C in it

A while ago I started having some issues In Illustrator CS6, where I couldn't copy and paste from one document/application to another, the issue later ported itself to AE and not much after that anything including the C key stopped working. For example I can't copy, pre compose or create a camera using shortcuts.
After a lot of troubleshooting I was able to isolate a preference pane who was causing the Illustrator issue, I removed it and AI went back to normal, I assumed After Effects would be fixed too but unfortunately that's not the case, I still can't use the C key.
I ran Onyx thoroughly, trashed AE's prefs, removed some recently acquired scripts, removed some login items and trashed those prefs also (I read a thread that mentioned those items could be causing odd behaviors).
I carefully compared my setup against my laptop, which also has AE CS6 installed and working perfectly, I have the same scripts, the same preferences and the only login items not installed there are the ones that's are grayed out in my imac, so I can't delete them.
If someone can help with this I'll be very grateful, I'm wasting a lot of time trying to solve this thing and I'm very used to using said shortcuts to increase my workflow.
Thanks.

I quit a few other components, a small utility called Shortcut (isn't that ironic?) and another one called MacAppBlocker,
I still can't pre compose any layers using command-shift-c
I was able to create a camera using command-shift-alt-c, after several tries, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.
I was being able to copy and paste across different programs and layers all sorts of objects, UNTIL I opened Illustrator and copied a path, then I pasted it into a solid in AE.
The next time I tried to copy something else, my clipboard got stuck with the path from Illustrator, EVEN inside illustrator.
Greg, as you can see from this thread:

This is an aknowledged bug from Illustrator, but as I have discovered in the past few days it's affecting everything systemwise, what are the possibilities that the only shortcuts that are failing are those that contain the combination of command-c? And like I said, it starts missbehaving right after I copy a path in Illustrator, not before.
Alright, after some further testing, here's what I found:
I removed (completely deleted) from my computer a small piece of software called WD Quickview, right after I was able to precomp and create cameras in AE.
I still have the copy/paste issue from Illustrator, right after I copy a path, the clipboard goes haywire system wide.
The strange thing is that, such program, WD Quickview has been installed on my computer for over a year now and never had any trouble with it, moreover, I'm not entirely sure how am I going to be able to get into the drive that uses that program (WD force-install that thing with their new drives that come with a new unerasable firmware).
Coincidentally, I haven't plug the drive at all this week, so perhaps the program went crazy when it couldn't find the drive?

Bridge CS6 bug: closing Bridge does NOT end process

Bridge does NOT started at boot.
Windows 7 -64 (all current updates).
Photoshop CS6 13.0 extended
Bridge 5.0.0 399x64
After closing Bridge by clicking on the Close X or file/exit, the process 'bridge.exe' does not terminate and therefore thereafter trying to restart bridge fails.
Have to open up Task Manager, kill the bridge.exe process, in order to restart bridge.
The bug is so variable that just when it appears repeatable, something changes.
Any idea of what to look for?

This is NOT TRUE. "FYI: In Windows, to exit a program/application, clicking the Close button in the upper-right corner of the program window is the same as using the File menu, and click Exit."
If you click the red X you close the window and force close of the program. Any changes you made to program will not be saved if you have the option "start Bridge at login" checked. If you click File>Exit the program will go through the procedure to normally close down, and any changes you made will be saved.
I tried to follow your steps but was confused on steps 3,4,5,8,10.
I used 1,2,3,7,9,11. Bridge was closed. Perhaps with all your "browse to bridge you are opening multiple copies?
Hey, how about trying and commenting on my problem with the Find function in CS6? http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1007726?tstart=0

My Photoshop CS6 Bugs, Ideas and other things

First of all, great job on many new features like: Dashed strokes, Styles for your Character and Paragraphs, Background saving.
I'm a webdesigner and I am using it now this whole morning and midday. So far so good, install went fine, working perfectly. But below a list of features I miss and a list of bugs or some other things I miss.
- Changing the opacity of a layer from any number to 100% doesnt work with the numeric pad
- Great job on the styles for typography, but why not doing the same thing for colors/swatches. You can make your own swatch library and you can attach that color to any object, shape, whatever. What would be really handy if you change that color in the swatches it would affect all objects who share that swatch. Really missing that feature a long time!
- Still missing external use of images/psd's/ any format. That I can place in my document, for example a psd, and when I change the original psd it would also automaticly update the placed object. It's like using a library like Fireworks.
- I like it when I drag my documents into photoshop, but when I drag a PSD to Photoshop it will open as a smartobject into the file wich was open, not as a new window. You can only achieve that by dragging it outside of the document, more like dragging it onto the option bars... Imo that's irritating.
- If you make a vector shape, it creates a path. If you select the shape it will show the path outlines around the shape. When you apply layer effects on the shape the shape is still selected, so you will see the path outlines around the shape. It's very annoying when you apply a stroke around the object it still showing the outline of the path around it. In CS4 (don't know about CS5) you could deselect the layer, then double click the effects icon on the layer and it will popu the layer styles menu without showing the outline of the path, in CS6 that doesnt work anymore.
I try to update this once in a while

So i finally started using the trial photoshop 6 and the first thing I notice, (that was wrong with 5.5) is that the zoom is zagged! Why must it zoom in large increments using the magic mouse? How it is possible to work with images zooming (very clunky) is beyond me. Photoshop 4 is fine. Nice and smooth when I'm using the finger scroll like a wel tuned machine, but then in the newest and greatest editions, it works like smashing the throttle to pull forward an inch!
This is crazy that something as basic as this is not addressed. Thank god that I can use the lasso tool and the zoom with scroll wheel again in this version (didn't work in 5.5) but hopefully this get s addressed. I really don't want to have to suffer through this when the newest final version is out.
Also, ( I assume this will be fixed in the final version) all of my preferences get reset everytime i open it. That is annoying.
So far I like the new look and it is much better than 5, but the basic things should work! I'm also not used to the tools not lining up with the cursors the same way. The lasso tool used to line up with the actual lasso, but now they line up with the arrow. Makes sense, but will take some getting used to.
PLEASE FIX THE ZOOM!

Photoshop CS6 bug: content aware is not longer working

Seems that the latest update of Photoshop CS6 broke content aware, which now produces a black result.

Thanks for the tip, but it does not applies to the issue I run into, as I'm using the "delete" command and not the tool (which seems to be working fine).
Sorry for being vague.
Also, this happens only when working in 32bit: in other bit depths the delete with content aware works fine as well.
Steps to replicate the bug:
open a 32bit document
select an area
delete use content aware
instead of filling the selected area with content aware it does fill it with black.

Adobe Photoshop cs6 bug?

Hello i tryed to do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXl21GV99MI&list=FLheijgj4R9hEuAW0lxi0eow&index=82&feature= plpp_video in cs 5.1 its ok, but in cs6 i cant doit, becouse when i try to draw rounded rectangle tool, automaticly creates new layer... so it does not work.
Is there any way i could solve this?
Regards from Slovenia

It's not a bug, it's partly because the shape (vector) tools have changed in cs6 and in the video the person left out the fact that one needs to select the path option before drawing the rounded rectangle.
* First you don't need a layer mask, just Cmd(Ctrl) click on the layer mask icon in the layers panel to get a vector mask>reveal all.
* Then click on the vector mask to make it active
* Select the rounded rectangle from the shape tools
* Set the radius
* Change the default shape setting in the tool options bar to path and draw out the rectangle

Flash Pro CS6 BUG - inconsistent end of line for xml files in library saved in xfl - MESSES UP SVN

When saving in XFL with Flash CS6 on Mac (it also happened in CS5.5), the generated xml files in library often have inconsistend end of line, which blocks SVN commits and I have to manually go in the files and make them consistent.
The XML nodes themselves all have \r\l as end of line, while, within <[CDATA[]]>, they only have \r.
We think this happens only when creating new library items on mac, on windows it doesn't happen.
This slows us down incredibly when working on a team using svn.
SVN doesn't upload files with inconsistend line ending.
Line ending shoul be consistent within the same xml file to make svn operations smooth.
Check an image of the bug:
http://www.pippoflash.com/_test/flash_bug_eof.png
you can see clearly the differences.
thank you
Filippo

Thanks Filippo, I could see that now!
While I was investigating this, I found that this is even happening on a file created and saved on just Windows. I was able to reproduce this using the following steps
- Create a new AS3 file on Windows
- Drag out a component to the stage say a Button component from the User Interface section of the Components panel
- Convert the button component to a Movie Clip Symbol
- Save the file as XFL and examine the Library XML files (the End of Line is just 'LF' in CDATA section whereas it is 'CR LF' everywhere else)
Since you were saying 'Items created in windows have no problem', does that means, SVN can commit those without any issues for you? And do you face problem only when the file is Created and Saved on Mac(where the end of line is just LF every where) but Modified and Re-saved on Windows(where the end of line is inconsistent)?
Thanks!

[CS6] Bug in opening CS4 IDML in CS6

Hello, all!
I just came accross a serious bug after opening an IDML file from InDesign CS4 v6.0.6 in CS6 v8.0.0.
Objects of a master page "B" that is based on master "A" were moved!
Watch out especially for page 4.
Here a screen grab of the pages palette of InDesign CS4:
Here a screen grab after opening the IDML in InDesign CS6:
The two objects on master "B" are moved by an amount of about half the page width!
Here the link to the IDML file from InDesign CS4:

FlashPro CS6 BUG - selecting items in library with textfields - fixed in latest 5.5.1, back in CS6!

This bug was removed from updated CS5.5, and it is back in it's extreme annoyance in CS6.
Whenever I select in the library a symbol, which contains textfields who's font is set to a custom font (i.e., Text-Project, linked to Verdana), for EACH of the textfields in the selected item, and in all containing items, the output window traces:
"Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts."
On certain items, it gets traced 20 or 30 times, and it slows down library selection incredibly, making the library almost unusable.

No,
I just select an item in the library, which contains textfields with custom font set (that is when you name a font yourself).
Flash freezes, for some complex items it freezes up to 60 seconds, and when it comes back, in the output window you have one message for each textfield, also in nested clips.
For complex clips now I go to make a cup of coffee if by mistake I click on them in the library

CS6 BUG: Reference window and RGB Color Corrector

An interesting bug in Premiere Pro CS6.
It took me a while to work out what the common factor was, but it now seems to be the RGB Color Corrector effect.
When the current tine indicator is on a clip using this effect, the Reference window will not update.
And not only doesn't it update the data on the graph, but if you change the type of scope (Display Mode) (e.g. from RGB Parade to Vectorscope), that also doesn't change until you move the CTI to view a clip without the RGB Color Corrector effect on.
I have tested this with both Red R3D files as the source and image sequences. Same thing in both cases.
Extra info:
OS is Windows 7-64 bit

If anyone is still having trouble with this issue, here is a link to download the 6.0 version of the RGB Color Corrector plug-in. Just grabbed it from an old install, and replaced the file in the Plugins folder and it worked perfectly.

[Premiere Pro CS6] Bug, vidéo coupée en deux

Bonjour, j'ai un problème très embêtant sur première pro : mes vidéos importées (chutier, moniteur source) et celles dans la table de montage sont coupées en deux ! Je ne sais pas du tout à quoi cela est dû, d'autant plus que j'ai commencé mon projet sans aucun souci.
J'ai fait une capture d'écran : http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/269/zuil.png
Le plus bizarre, c'est que les vidéos ne sont pas toutes touchées (le bug s'arrête à la vidéo "SDV_936"). Je viens de remarquer que les vidéos de format mp4 ne sont pas atteintes mais les vidéos wmv oui. Comme vous pouvez le constater, cela est très ennuyant. Et cela me serait long de tout reconvertir en mp4. Le son en revanche marche nickel.
Quelqu'un sait comment réparer ce problème ? Merci d'avance.
Références :
Windows 7 64 bits
Adobe Premiere Pro CS6
Formats vidéo utilisés : .wmv (=format présentant le bug) ; .mp4
Note : j'ai effectué un premier rendu de mon projet juste avant le bug après réutilisation du logiciel. J'ai ensuite supprimé les fichiers de rendu et le bug s'est propagé sur ma table de montage.

Je n'ai pas Photoshop.
PP est dans sa version 6.0.0 , je devrais donc installer la maj 6.0.3 alors.
Ma configuration du projet est bonne. Ce qui est bizarre, c'est que ce problème est intervenu seulement il y a quelques jours alors que je procède de la même façon depuis des mois.
D'ici là, je fais la maj et je dis si ça règle les choses.

Cs6 bug

Hello!
Win7x32 and PS CS6.
To reproduce bug create any new file. Create levels layer with any mask. Activate "mask viewing" by pressing Option/Alt and clicking to mask icon on the levels layer in layers panel. Then try to call menu->select->color range. PS will crash.

I cannot reproduce this problem in 13.0.4 or 13.1.2.
If you have a Macintosh crash log, I need to know the email address it was submitted with in the Adobe Crash Reporter so I can search for it in our database.
I've tried it again (still 13.0.1 on OS X), in order to send a crash report this time... but no crash now.
Tried 16-bit mode and 8-bit mode, several times, several relaunches, docs with just Background and Levels, docs with numerous layers... no crash.

Is there a CS6 bug thread?

Hi all,
Im having some issues with the Navigator window in Illustrator CS6 and wondered if there was a master bug thread to post problems people are having so that Adobe can see all the things that might need ironing out? I've done a search but can't see one.
Cheers

No thread... report bugs by clicking the "Contact Adobe" link at the bottom of this or any page on their web site.

Deleting a Guide InDesign CS6 Bug

When I open a document created in InDesign CS5 in CS6, the guides are locked, and there is no way to unlock them. Trust me, that was definitely the first thing I checked. These guides can not be deleted or moved. Looks like a bug, but maybe there's a work around? Any ideas? Thanks.

Seems as though there are two ways to Lock guides. From the "View" menu under "Grids and Guides>Lock Guides" and from the Layers Pallet, by double clicking the layer that has the guides and selecting a box that says "Lock Guides".
For some reason, InDesign CS5 documents that are opened in CS6 have the second method of Guide locking applied to them, even if the original document did not have locked guides. And when the Guides are Locked according to this method, the "View>Grids and Guides" menu does not indicate that Guides are locked at all. There's not visible indication that guides are locked, so it proves to be a bit of a usability nightmare.
Maybe this helps others with the same issue.
