Illustrator(cs5) file has stopped showing pictures

I was working on a file that has quite a few PDF images/graphs/tables in it and suddenly it said something about "preview no longer available" and quit showign all my images. I have restarted the program and the computer. I've tried deleting some pictures. Everything else seems to still work...I can make changes, save it as a pdf and see the changes, but I can't see the images. Any ideas?

Is it still in Outline Mode? Try Cmd(Ctrl)-Y and see what happens. Basically you've reached the limit of CS5 which ia about 3GB of usable RAM. If you need to use more, you will have to move to CS6 which is 64bit.

Illustrator CS5.1 has stopped working

Hi,
I just bought CS 5.5 and am having a lot of issues with Illustrator. I was working on a drawing and I was able to save it until I tried to change the colors on my lines and now everytime I try to save it the program says Adobe Illustrator CS 5.1 has stopped working and that windows is going to close the program. I am also having issues with certain documents, which when I try to print them the print dialogue box won't even show up. I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program but it didn't fix any of the issues.
Any ideas on what the problem could be or how to fix it? I really appreciate any help!

First of all I would try and trash the Preferences.
Then check your printers, printer drivers and connection.
Also check your fonts.
And you might want to browse the Knowledgebase for help https://www.adobe.com/support/illustrator/

PSE 12 Has stopped showing thumbnails for new files

PSE 12 has stopped showing thumbnails for new file imports. Have Windows 8.1 update

In the PSE12 Organizer, the last files imported show an hourglass thumbnail. I am importing from the camera card. Other images have the correct thumbnail. I see the spinning icon on the lower bar showing it updating the catalog. Thank you for your assistance

Aperture stopped showing pictures in viewer and split view

Suddenly Aperture 3 has stopped showing any pictures in viewer and split view (except for the bottom fim strip) but I can see them all in browser view. I have tried using Aperture Repair and have reset Aperture (using Clean My Mac to delete the user setup files). I also tried creating a new library with just a few files to see if the size of the library was an issue. I also tried opening the libraries in iPhoto and have the same result. I can browse the minatures but not open the larger pictures.
The only thing I have yet to try is to delete and reinstall Aperture. But since iPhoto has the same problem, I don't see how that would be the issue.
Aperture is version 3.5.1, OS is OSX 10.9.2.

I would have to redo the cleanmymac step but essentially it is like creating a new install before using the app.
If you do not know, what exactly will be uninstalled, by a general cleaning application, don't use it. That is risky.
Using a different user account makes no difference.
That means, you are having a system wide problem. Fixing your Aperture library or settings in your account will probably not help.
First thing to try, reinstall Aperture.
And if that does not bring your split view back, reinstall Mavericks. You may have missing caches and necessary configuration files, since iPhoto is having the same problem.
Did you run CleanMyMac to uninstall other applications, before the problem first occured? Usually it is much safer, to use only the uninstaller, that come with an application. Otherwise, you are risking to uninstall items needed by other applications or the system.
To reinstall MacOS X 10.9.2, boot into OS X Recovery, see this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

'InDesign CS5.5 has stopped working'

I get this message when I open some InDesign files: 'InDesign CS5.5 has stopped working'. After this I have to close InDesign. How can I stop it from doing this?

Holly, did you search for the whole path, or did you look inside the Users folder for your account? I'd expect it'd look something like this:
C:\Users\Holly\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe InDesign Version 5.5\English
Because we don't know how your computer is set up, you'd need to use the paths that Manish posted to figure out where your versions of these files are located.
I think I've found the InDesign recovery folder but where do I move it to?
I think that if you just move it away from that location to another place where you can find it easily if you ever need to find it and put it back where it came from (for example, your desktop) then that would probably be enough.

Lightroom has stopped showing thumbnails on Import. How do I get my previews back?

My Lightroom (5.3) has stopped showing previews on Import. I can still see older Imports in Library but my latest Imports are just grey boxes. I can open the boxes in Develop and these stay as previews for up to 3 thumbnails in Library before disappearing again. I have tried reinstalling Lightroom 5. I have checked my sRGB. It is the same problem with different cards and different external drives.
How can I get my Library to show Preview thumbnails once more? Thanks, Angus

Could it be that the Camera Software is installed and it got Updated?
-Sometimes it happens that the "autoplay" uses the Codec for recognizing the files, and When Lightroom tries to do the same the files are in use, so it can not generate Previews/Thumbnails.
Do you get the same result if you Try to Import from Safe Boot?
- It could be that there is some software installed that now also manages during startup, also preventing Lightroom to Generate the Previews.
Have you tested with a new Catalog, do you get the same behavior there?
Also it might be far fetched, but incase you haven't seen it it might help you on the issue:

Hopefully this will help to resolve the issue.

Windows 8 - Photoshop CS5.1 crashes upon startup. Error message: "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 has stopped working.A problem caused by the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

Hello!
I've had the student version of the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium software for several years now.
When I received my Windows 8 computer I installed the software with no issue.
Last week when I tried opening Photoshop I get the following error: "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 has stopped working.A problem caused by the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
I deactivated and uninstalled the entire Creative Suite then reinstalled it. I am able to open the other programs, but still receive the same message for Photoshop.
What can I do?

I found the issue was with the Nik Filters I was using. The filters were messing with Photoshop's initializing. I uninstalled and reinstalled the filters and now Photoshop works like a charm.
It appears this forum is dead?!
Thankfully, I was able to troubleshoot on my own and figured out the problem...

"Adobe Media Core CS5.5 has stopped working"

Whenever I try to encode using the Quicktime-H.264 codec in Adobe Media Encoder, I get a crash that states "Adobe Media Core CS5.5 has stopped working". Also I have tried to encode using this codec directly within Premiere Pro with the "Export" button instead of the "Queue" button, but the encode doesn't progress and eventually locks up the application. I have downloaded the most current version of Quicktime, and have made sure that all of my Adobe products are up-to-date. Encoding with other Quicktime codecs such as "Animation" work, but the h.264 just will not.
What has me confused is that we just upgraded to new computers and did a clean install of CS5.5. Encoding with this codec works just fine on the old machines. Below you will see my system info as well as the error "Problem Signature". Any help to resolve this issue?

I'm getting the exact same problem on a similar but older system. I've reinstalled quicktime, and I'm about to reinstall CS6. Have you had any luck in getting this resolved?
Edit: I finally called Adobe support about it, and they seemed geniunely stumped as well.

[SOLVED] urxvt has stopped showing accents

Hello,
Quite suddenly (to me) urxvt has stopped showing á, é, í, ñ and the like. They worked yesterday, and they still work in console and xterm -- the latter uses a different font, but the former does not.
The relevant section of .Xresources:
URxvt.font: -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
URxvt.boldFont: -*-terminus-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
and the whole /etc/vconsole.conf:
KEYMAP="es"
FONT=ter-114n
#FONT_MAP=8859-1_to_uni
FONT_MAP=8859-1
Is anyone seeing anything strange? The only relevant change I can think of is that I have removed initscripts. I've been using systemd for some weeks and (I thought) the package was just there sitting idly. Maybe it wasn't.

I'm also experiencing this after the switch to systemd.
~/.Xdefaults

/etc/vconsole.conf

Maybe this has something to do with locale settings?

My email has stopped showing up on my screen through 'my mail'. To get my mail I have to go via the internet. How can I restor, receiving mail in 'my mail'?

Did you recently make any changes? Change your ISP or upgrade the OS?
Have you set up the Mail app with the settings from your ISP? And then configured it to fetch whatever online web email you have?

Safari 4 beta stopped showing pictures

I've been using Safari 4 beta since yesterday.
Today, Safari suddenly stopped showing pictures.
Not a single picture is shown on any web page.
I've tried both restarting and resetting Safari, but no change.

Hmm... Can the top banner be seen? Well, you can report it stright to Apple using their new button.
Consider it is still in Beta stage.

My Macbook has stopped showing alternatives for vowels. What to do?

My MacBook has stopped showing alternate vowels when I hold down the key. I frequently need to use German words, so this is a problem. Did I somehow turn this feature off? What can I do to get them back?

Tried that before I posted my original question. It didn't do anything. I honestly don't have a clue what happened.It's always worked before, then all of a sudden it won't, and I didn't do anything to the controls programs before it started doing it.

Opening Adobe illustrator CS5 file in CorelDraw X5

I was totally new to graphic design and the best I could do was resize images in MS Paint or use Word 2010. Than I discovered Adobe Illustartor as I needed to make a logo and Letter Head. After breaking my head against my monitor (does not hurt any more) and learning it for 2 weeks, I became sufficiently good enough (if I can be excused to say that) and designed the logo and letterhead. Now it has to go to print.
The problem is that all the commercial printers and the people who use them, HERE use CorelDRAW and not only that but also older versions from 9 to 15. They refuse to take Adobe Illustrator files or even CorelDRAW files above version 12 such as v15 or X5. They refuse to work with PDF files also. No Word 2010 files either. Simply and Only CorelDRAW files of version 9 to 12.
The Adobe Illustrator CS5 does not have options of saving the files in ".cdr" format. And when I import or open the ".ai" file in CorelDRAW X5, many things happen. Color changes of text as well as objects. Some objects do not get displayed. Alignment and positioning gets changed, and many others.
I have taken some steps after reading on the net to make it easier for CorelDRAW X5 to import the ".ai" files. And also tried many things. These include, but are not limited to..
Uncheck/disable the "compression" when saving the file in AI-CS5.
Uncheck/disable the "Embed ICC Prile" when saving in AI-CS5.
Convert all text to outlines.
Saving in "SVG", "PDF" all different versions.
Saving in older AI-CS5 Legacy versions.
Exporting the file from AI-CS5 in different file formats.
Importing the file from CD-X5.
Working in RGB Color Mode.
... And many more.
Please note that I can not be expected to fresh learn CD-X5 and abandon AI-CS5 and design from the begining, if that is a "sole" answer. Also my design is simple enough. Attached are 2 pics. One of the logo and the other of the letterhead. Just 3 rounded rectangles filled with 2 color gradients and vectors of animals with styles applied to those animals and with text at the bottom.
The Logohttp://oi44.tinypic.com/ieqs0m.jpg
The LetterHeadhttp://oi41.tinypic.com/1zzj03s.jpg
Please further note (yes! I know, you have heard that many times) that although I was successful in designing (the asthetic beauty of the design is another matter), I am still new to designing. So Color Theroy or Font theroy have not made past me. And I wonder what's the point of having a standard of "SVG" If these so called "Vector Editing Applications" can not handle the files uniformly?
I guess my question is how to either
Export/Save/Save As/Place the file from AI-CS5 to CD-X5
Import/Open/Open As/Place the file in CS-X5 from AI-CS5
Without changes being made to it. My objective to to hand over a print ready file to the printing guys.
Thanks in Advance.

Not CS3 but version 3 like this

How to export to an Illustrator CS5 file iin CS6

I am working on a project at school which has Illustrator CS6 Installed and my friend has CS5 on his computer, and his computer would not read a CS6 file. Is there a way to export from CS6 as a CS5 file?

Do a Save as .ai and take a closer look at the options you can choose there (AI CS5 compatibility).

Adobe Illustrator CS5 File sizes are huge!

Try this:
open a new Illustrator document
create a simple box, black stroke, white fill
save the file
you're looking at something like 1 Mb for these 4 anchor points and the fill and stroke definition!
now, back in Illustrator, downsave to Illustrator 3 format
file size is in around 6Kb - much better!
Okay, I know we can disable ICC profile embedding, PDF compatibility etc, but none of that even comes remotely close to the "correct" file size of < 10Kb.
C'mon Adobe, what are you putting in that CS5 file that's so darned important? This isn't a complex illustration with gradient masks, 3D transforms and thousands of points.
I get it, everyone has terrabyte drives and high-speed internet. Is that an excuse to make really inefficient file formats?

hmmmm......
As Monika pointed out... deleting the defualt library items will make files sizes drastically smaller.
I'd guess that version 3, since it lacked the ability to work in preview mode, didn't save file previews with the file either... that could easily account for 50kb.
