Illustrator CS 5 and Mac OS Lion

After I installed Mac Os Lion on my computer, I can't get the clipping mask to work anymore in Illustrator. I am running Mac OS 10.7.2 the latest.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Also, Illustrator is running real slow now.
Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a tip: ask in the illustrator forum ....

Elements 9 and Mac OSX Lion

I just d'loaded Photoshop Elements 9 on a Mac running Lion. The software crashes upon startup. One help file states that the Java runtime environment must be installed and I've confirmed it is.
Anyone else having this problem and figure out a fix?
Software is totally unusable at this moment.

I d'loaded from the Mac App store and not expecting much help from Adobe on this I did some more thorough examination myself using the Console and crash reporter and now I've managed to fix the problem.
Crash reporter listed the following;
Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/TWAIN.framework/Versions/A/TWAIN
Referenced from: /Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Editor
Reason: image not found
Not sure why the TWAIN driver wasn't there other than possibly it was removed with the recent install of a new Epson printer so I looked back through my Time Machine backup and found and restored it.
Elements 9 now launches. Haven't had enough time to try and make sure it's working properly but no reason to expect otherwise.
If nothing else, maybe my experience will help some other Mac user.

VirusBarrier and Mac OS Lion Installation

Am about to install Mac OS Lion on my Mac Mini. Should I uninstall Virusbarrier 6 from the computer or just install. I have gone to the Intego website but it doesn't seem to answer the question yes or no.
Thanks

Yes, you should definitely get rid of anti-virus software. And, don't bother reinstalling it later because you don't really need it.
If you downloaded or are downloading the Lion installer, then there are a few things to do before upgrading Snow Leopard. If you have not yet downloaded Lion:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If you have started downloading Lion, then when it finishes DO NOT click on the Install button. Instead, quit the Lion installer. Make a copy of it and put the copy in your Downloads folder for safekeeping. Then do the above and read the below:
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion.

Where are my saved Keyboards shortcuts in Illustrator CS6 on a Mac (Mountain Lion)?

I can't find my .kys file to backup?
Any ideas where I can find it in OSX Mountain Lion?

It's in your user folder/Lbrary/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS6
The library folder in the user folder is hidden on Mac OS. Search Google on how to show it and thank Apple for this great idea.

Saving illustrator CS5 files in Mac OSX Lion makes the app to crash

Hello!
I have serious troubles with illustrator since i've installed Lion. All my files are stored in a networked Western Digital USB disk connected to the Airport Extreme via USB port. When a file is open in illustrator and try to save ir after a few changes the APP CRASH! No matter if the file was in the desktop or in the networked drive, always crash! The file is saved OK and with no errors but the app crash and need to be "Force Quited" and open again...
Anybody has this issue with illustrator and Lion? Anybody has a fix for this?
THANKS!!!

Like leitowys all of my ai files that are saved over the network (on time capsule) do it... Big or small.
I should also note I never had this problem in Snow Leopard ... On my laptop I reverted back to snow leopard after upgrading to lion, and my illustrator works fine again saving over network etc.
Also, when I try to force quit once it has frozen up in illustrator, everything freezes up and I eventually have to power button restart.

Western Digital My Book And Mac OS Lion

Installed OS Lion (not Mountain Lion) on my Mac Mini. When I re-attached my Western Digital My Book External Drive and turned time machine back on seems not to be working. Time Machine sees the drive but seem to get stuck in "preparing backup'. Anyone have similar problems????

Hello and welcome to the WD Community.
Were you using any specific backup software? or you were you backing up your files manually?

Nokia C5-03 and Mac OSX Lion - Problems copying files to phone in Mass Storage mode

Whenever I try to load more than one file from my iMac (early 2008, OSX Lion 10.7.2) to my new Nokia C5-03 in Mass Storage mode —since the files are MP3s and Multimedia Transfer doesn’t seem to work at all, I keep on getting asked which transfer mode I want to activate for several times, I always choose Mass Storage, and then the first file starts copying, but when it ends with the first one I have to wait for ±30s only to get asked the same again and again until the second file starts copying, and so on.
It’s driving me crazy, I’ve tried setting in the USB connectivity options not to ask me for the mode when I connect the phone, but it doesn’t work either. It still goes very slow and a lot of “USB Mass Storage transfer mode activated” messages appear.
I’ve tested it with a friend’s C5-03 and it’s still the same, but when connecting them to a Windows computer everything goes great and fast. Has somebody had this problem before? Is there a solution to this? I don’t know if this is the correct board to post this, sorry if it’s not.
Thanks in advance.
PS: Sorry if there are any mistakes or my English sounds weird, i’m Spanish.

Hi,
Can you try the suggestions below?
-Go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel (called Programs
and Features in Microsoft Windows 7).
Select Nokia Ovi Suite in the list of applications and click
Change/Remove.
In the dialog that appears, choose Repair.
- Click Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver and repair
-Try creating the connection between your phone and computer
totally from scratch. Start by disconnecting your phone. In
Nokia Ovi Suite, select Tools > Options > My devices. Select
your phone at the top of the window and click Remove this
device.
Then, select Tools > Add new device, and follow the
instructions to reconnect the phone.
If this doesn't solve the problem,
-Uninstall the following programs withAdd/Remove Programs in
Control Panel (called Programs and Features in Microsoft
Windows 7):
Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver
Nokia Ovi Suite
PC Connectivity Solution
Then, download and install the latest version of Nokia Ovi
I hope this helps.

Mainstage 2.2.1 and MAC OSX Lion update 10.7.4 CRASH!

hello there.
I'm dealing with an issue with mainstage and the last update from apple's OS, 10.7.4. The mainstage software (witch is intended for live - and steady - use) is crashing often after the OS update. I'm a professional musician and last night a had the third gig in a row with several problems with my setup. Mainstage starts behaving very strangely, a white intermitent bar appears in both sides of the section with the CPU usage and other infos in the top of the edit window. Then i suddenly can't change preset nor patches. the octaves are wrong and the sounds too. then comes the "rolling ball of mac" anouncing something really wrong. After the first time it happened and mainstage crash until closed, i managed to reopen it in the middle of the gigs... it was very stressing and frustrating.
before the last show, yesterday, I searched for answers in forums and here I found that maybe installing the update from appstore would end this issues. so I did, even being an owner of the logic bundle witch came with mainstage, and paid 29 dollars for the software again. the install was alright but the problems remain (actually it was the worst scenario in a gig for me ever...)
PLEASE HELP! i'm a recent user of the mac system, i have late 2009 macbook pro with mainstage 2.2.1 running mac OSX 10.7.4.
I cant afford having this kind of issues in the middle of my job! this become a real problem for me!
in case anyone would ask, NO, i haven't made a time machine backup in order to roll back the OS. my bad.
thanks,
piero

Its disconcerting to say the least to see that last post by SmithBurg was one year ago. Disconcerting because there didnt appear to be a clear cut solution to an issue that seems to be happening to many users in that for whatever user's MS setups were doing at the time, the end result is that the program quits "unexpectantly" during a show.
I had been using MS originally on a late 2009 MB pro, and as my patches evolved, I started having several issues which would quit MS.
I did find what seemed to be a solution by reinstalling the OS to 10.6.8, and and new "unclogged" system seemed to fix the issue. HOWEVER....a few months later and it "quit unexpectantly" in the middle of a show, or I couldnt get my focusrite scarlet 8i6 inteface to work in preferences...(had to use the MB pro minijack out!!   Which was very noisy with the power supply and I do NEED the power supply for a 4 hour show (that old banana)
I digress......
So, i think my laptop has had its day with all the issues id been having, and I go out 2 months ago and buy Apple's flagship macbook pro for $4200, with the idea that the ultra high specs of the laptop should do the trick.
MS reinstalled....I dont use 3rd party plugs as im content with MS sounds, (although i did install kontact to try out and it was far too memory intensive, so dont actually use it.
So for 1 month I play various shows with no issues. I have not changes the setup at all EXCEPT adding one patch that I made.
Then one gig last month it happens again. I'm flabbergasted now.      "MS quit unexpectantly" but I DONT have wi-fi connected at the random venue, and CANT send apple the error report.
My only choice is to reboot and attempt to get the flow of the show back up again.   Thus loosing the error report.
I NEED a solution, and I cant understand what the error report is even saying.
SPENDING $4200 on a new laptop, and if i had hair, I'd be pulliing it out.SHOULD I HAVE GONE HARDWARE INSTEAD? I know MS now, SO used to it, and i love MS far too much if only it worked for more than 5 seconds.
PLEASE APPLE HELPPPPPPPP!
or any kind users out there with some kinda fault finding knowledge

Crash problem with elements 10 and mac mini lion 10.7.3

since i download element 10 into mac mini lion10.7.3 my system crashing all the time. i re installed adobe nothing happend. only solition so far shut down the mac and resart it again. and thats give me another 30 min fast work.
i tried CS4 AND CS5 had same problem.
does anyone know an answer?
thank you.

Working with Photoshop can tax a system, and if there are weak links, as Chris Cox alludes to, that can push the computer over the edge. It is not that the program (PSElements in this case) is "causing" the problem, only that it is revealing the weakness, where other programs, say e-mail reader, Web browser, wordprocessor, etc., will not tax the computer enough to point out the problem.
I agree with Chris in that it sounds like you have a hardware issue, such as a bad stick of RAM. That might not get used with regular computing tasks, but then PSE needs more RAM, so suddenly that stick is put into use.
There are several RAM test software programs (some better than others, and often by a great margin), but I do not know what is available for a Mac. Maybe others will have a rec. for you. Also, Chris has commented on some PC RAM test software, and does not like some of those applications, so if he recommends something for the Mac, go with his recs, as he knows what he's talking about.
Good luck, and wish that I had more to offer. I have several articles on tracking down hardware and OS errors, but all are for the PC, and hence, of little use here - sorry.

Corrupted disk issues between iMacs and Mac OSX Lion

My iMac can't boot up, because it started to fill a black bar at the bottom of the screen and it suddenly disappears. Tried to repair my disk but Disk Utility said "the disk cannot be repaired". So I formatted twice and made a brand new installation, and the same problem returned. I went to the apple support and they said that a bunch of iMacs were having the same issue, and told me to stay at snow leopard until a fix was realeased. Is this normal to iMac self-corruption? Or is just a real Lion problem?

I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

It is now confirmed that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.

Dreamweaver and Java SE 6 Runtime problem on MAC Mountain Lion OSX

I have a problem with dreamweaver. I really love dreamweaver for building web pages and have used it for years with a PC. I recently switched from a PC to a MAC but I find that when I open the Dreamweaver app for the first time I get a prompt that says something like "You must download Java SE 6 runtime, would you like to install it now?" I click yes, and the download fails. I called Apple about it, they said the software resides on Oracle's Java web site, and its out of their control. I go to the Oracle Java web site it says "Apple supplies their version of Java SE 6 runtime and there's no way to download it from the Java.com site. All this means is that YOUR software does not work on my MAC because these two companies can't agree on who suppies this software.
What I need to know is HOW DO I GET DREAMWEAVER TO WORK? How do I get around this crazy *** catch 22 situation? And why doesn't your software recognize Java SE 7 runtime?

I'm in the same boat with you. I recently used Time Machine to backup my profile and then wiped my entire drive and installed Mountain Lion. After importing all of my data with the Migration Assitant, Dreamweaver will NOT open.
SnakEyez02, Oracle's website does NOT have the dowload. The link you posted is to version 7. We've been down this road already. Martiantime is correct, neither Apple nor Oracle are providing Java SE 6, but Dreamweaver is crying to have it installed.
So, Adobe, how do we get out of the hole that we did not dig?
