Ilustrator CS4+Snow Leopard Profile issues

Seems like something is not working in Cs4 Illustrator with Snow Leopard. Can someone give it a try to verify.
When I print to my Epson 3800 from Illust. It's not matching the same image printed via PS Cs4. ( It should if you follow a controlled workflow--which I do)
At first thought it was a color management issue, but everything is synchronized via Bridge, and I am using the same print settings, paper profiles , etc in both apps.
I then tried saving as a pdf in Illustrator. Same thing is occuring. Seems like the profile is not "sticking".
I did not have this issue before Snow Leopard.
If I open the Illustrator created PDF via Photoshop, then everything is ok....what is happening?
( have the newest drivers from Epson)
Norbert

No advice?
I have resorted to saving as eps from Illustrator and then creating a PDF from the eps using distiller. Then the profile for images seem to be recognized. Otherwise if I save as pdf directly from Illustrator to pdf, images are too overexposed--as are colors too light. (same issue occurs if directly printing via Illust,)

  • Photoshop cs4-snow leopard-automatically save files with same name.

    Does anyone know how to automatically update a file in another folder that has the same name as the current file? (photoshop cs4-snow leopard)

    Does this apply to all files you work on?
    How are the parallel files being defined – by location relative to the edited ones, filename, foldername, …?
    Will an index of the parallel files have to be written into the files’ metadata?
    And what’s behind this, why do you need multiple instances of the saved file, if I may ask?

  • When will we get a fix for the Snow Leopard Compatibility issue??

    When will we get a fix for the Snow Leopard Compatibility issue?
    I am growing impatient not being able to use cross dissolve or titles.
    Its going to be a pain having to back out to OS 10.5. This is beginning to be like Windows Vista.

    You don't say what "..Snow Leopard Compatibility issue.." you're having.
    My titles and Dissolves - and everything else - work perfectly with iMovie HD 6 and with iMovie '09 in Snow Leopard.
    Perhaps you need to revert to QuickTime 7 ..just in case you over-wrote QT 7 with Snow Leopard's own QuickTime X when you upgraded to SL.
    QT7 and QT X both sit happily alongside each other in Snow Leopard ..you might want to give that a try.
    But I have no problem with any aspect of iMHD6 nor iM09 (..and no trouble with "stills"..) using Snow Leopard on a "late '08" MacBook Pro.
    I haven't yet installed SL (Family Pack) on my Mac Mini ..I'll let SL throw away my QT7 on that, and will see if that causes any problems with iMovie. If it does, I'll then download and re-install QT7 and see if that fixes any problems. But don't hold your breath ..I may report back tomorrow, but today I'm pretty busy! I'll do my best, though..

  • Photoshop CS4 & Snow Leopard

    I have heard of a number of issues with PS CS4 & SL.  Not all like mine of course but mine is really becoming a nuisance.  I can load and use both PS and Illustrator CS4 with SL but after a period of using PS, my short key functions just stop working.  This is terribly frustrating.  Even Ctrl + Click on the Layers for the drop-down menu gives nothing but grey selections.  Totally unusable.  Then when I try to Cmnd + Q to Quit, nothing happens.  By this time I can still make selections in the images and layers themselves like adjust Text but not really much else.  Using the mouse to select my tools still works.  So I open the Photoshop Menu to Quite the App.  It too is grey.  Can't select it.  Thus forcing me to Force Quit the Application.  Most frustrating indeed.  I think I managed about an hour of work in the 2-3 I spent trying to get by.  I just did the Update for SL, but there was no mention of foreign program updates.  Is there anything on the horizon that will assist these issues at all?

    Interesting, I've had the ”quit app menu selection” greyed out in a totally different application than Photoshop (twice).
    Wasn't this also a not too uncommon problem with Mail.app in Leopard? (don't know if it's the same for Mail.app in Snow Leopard)
    I haven't tried Snow Leopard and Photoshop CS4 extensively yet, but will hopefully soon have time to let one of our retouchers test it for a couple of days and report back how it works.

  • Need help with Snow Leopard compatibility issue

    We have a new iMac in (with Snow Leopard) and have loaded all our programs. Due to budgets, we have not made the jump to CS4 and are still on CS3 (waiting for 5). We work in an InDesign/InCopy workflow.
    In launching InDesign on the MAc with Snow Leopard, we have noticed that the assignment folders are nonexistant and within the program you can't even open an assignment window. When you reopen on a system without Snow Leopard, the individual assignments are there, but the program states it can't find the main assignment, so it's cancelling out the assignments if opened on the Snow Leopard unit.
    Does anyone have any info on compatibility issues with Indesign CS3 and Snow Leopard? My tech guy found nothing on this before we ordered the new system.

    First things first. CS5 was announced today and preorders are being accepted.
    I believe if you upgrade to CS4 you'll get a free copy of CS5. This is important because if you're upgrading a suite, tiered pricing makes CS3 to CS4 $200 less than waiting til CS5 comes out.
    That out of the way, is everyone fully patched to CS3 5.0.4? Is Snow Leopard fully updated to 10.6.3? Do you have full read/write permission on the server?

  • CS4, Snow Leopard, and Transparency Gradients

    Since upgrading to Snow Leopard I cannot make gradients in Photoshop that have transparency in them.  They always come out as a solid color.  Anyone else experiencing the same?

    Hi
    I'm new to the forums and I had asked a question to an expert and  now I
    get inundated with other messages not pertaining to my question. How,  might I

    lost  their transparency.  Even in the little preview bar the transparency
    is  not visible, and it certainly doesn't work when applying the  tool.

  • Mac Snow Leopard install issues w/ CS?

    I'm upgrading my Mac OS to Snow Leopard (10.6.3), and prior to doing so, I decided to go online and search to see if there were any issues or recos I could fine re: the upgrade. I'm glad I did. I seems there are a few problems with Adobe CS softwares – saving files and software crashes with Snow L.
    I am running all CS4 versions, with the exception of InDesign (CS6). Did Mac/Adobe resolve the issues with the 10.6.3 version?

    CS4 should work fine without any issue on Snow Leopard , there could be problem that could be system or application specific which we can try and help you with.

  • Unable to launch several applications in Snow Leopard/ iDVD issues

    I upgraded to Snow Leopard 4 days ago and am having trouble launching several applications. The list includes:
    -CuteFTP for Mac
    -Adobe CS3: illustrator, flash, InDesign
    -Cisco VPN client
    I've tried selecting the "use rosetta to open" option in "get info" on the affected applications with no luck.
    Additionally, while burning a DVD I was unable to switch applications when iDVD was multiplexing and writing (~ 30 minutes total.) After the disk was done, the Finder toolbar was gone, and I couldn't re-launch Finder. I had to do a hard restart.
    Did I miss something during installation? This ranks with the original OSX (10.0) transition in terms of disruption.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Eddie

    CuteFTP hasn't had an update since June 2008. CyberDuck is free and there is a new 64 bit version in beta here: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/14426
    Adobe said they haven't tested CS3 with SL - you can try their support forums for better info: http://forums.adobe.com/community/creativesuites/creativesuites_macintosh?view=d iscussions
    Cisco VPN - There is a thread with a lot of information, and some solutions here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2131308&tstart=0&messageID=100 89199
    I don't know about an iDVD problem like you had. I've been burning fine with Toast 10, although I do miss my contextual menu's. I have to launch the program first now instead of just right clicking on a file and choosing Burn with Toast. Apple removed almost all of the contextual menu's in favor of an improved 'Services' system that I never used in the past.
    Leopard caused as many programs to quit working when Apple dropped support for OS9. There were hundreds of complaints. SL does change the basic structure to support 64bit apps, and seems to have caused minor problems with a wide range of programs, while other programs of the same type seem to work great.
    The worst problems I'm seeing are related to HP Printer driver issues. Luckily I switched to Brother Printers a couple of years ago. Brother had their drivers ready months before SL's release date and they download as soon as you install the OS and run 'Software Update'.

  • Snow Leopard - Latency issues when waking from sleep

    I own two macs ('09 mini and unibody macbook), both of which connect wirelessly to an airport extreme N router. Since upgrading to Snow Leopard I have been dealing with terrible latency issues when the computers wake from sleep. Ping times from local servers increase from around 23ms to 220ms and webpages load slowly. A quick reboot solves the issue. Connecting directly to the airport extreme with a patch cable also solves the latency issue so I know it's just with wireless.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem since upgrading and, if so, what are you doing to solve the issue?
    Edit: Samples of ping times...before and then after a reboot:

  • Anyone using Logic 8 with 10.6 Snow Leopard ? issues ?

    Using Logic 8 with 10.6, I'm aware there is an issue quitting Logic without first closing the current project.
    Are there any other issues? any performance boost/ benefit?
    I'm running an 06 Macbook Pro 17" 2 Gb Ram 10.5.8 currently and considering an upgrade to 10.6
    Audio units I use: Revalver MKIII and Amplitube

    (blushes embarrassedly)
    No, my coffee was still too hot...
    There are quite a few issues running L8 and L9 with Snow Leopard. My (and also from some of the pro's here) standard answer is hold off Snow Leopard until it has stabilized a bit more. Try to wait until 10.6.4 or 5 at least. Leopard only became reasonably stable with L8 at version 10.5.4, 0-3 were problematic.
    Just check this forum for user reports when SL gets updated.
    Since SL was released, the number of Q's on this forum seems to have more than doubled. That is strong circumstancial evidence for SL-Logic stability/reliability problems. It may be the price to pay for the price we pay.

  • Photoshop CS4 Snow Leopard Bugs: Cursor Position & Grains

    Currently running OSX Snow Leopard (10.6.1), and just installed the latest Adobe updates this morning (9.22.09).
    There are two bugs in Ps CS4 I've encountered, one minor but aesthetically unpleasant, and the other major and disrupting:
    The first bug occurs at random when Ps is extended to "Full Screen Mode with Menu Ba." As seen in the image at the following link, graininess occurs in Ps's canvas background, and wont disappear until the screen mode is toggled (pressing the "F" key three times): http://img.skitch.com/20090922-tyxk4dfrak4dtf2f4rg7fgyn59.jpg Again, not a major bug, but simply annoying to look at.
    The second, more annoying bug, has to do with the cursor and selection tools. I could not determine when exactly this happens and how it goes away, but a few times throughout the day the selection cursor is a few pixels off. When either the lasso, magic wand, marquee or other similar tools are selected, the actual area from which Ps begins to select is about 10-15 pixels below the cursor position, see image in link for clarification: http://img.skitch.com/20090922-1jyqdtj34xw99ysq4gjxhxx57c.jpg
    I hope this notice gets the bugs fixed. If you're experiencing similar Snow Leopard side-effects and can detect how and when they occur, please let me know. The canvas background pixelation, I can live with...but the cursor selection bug makes my day twice as difficult and slows my workflow down to a snail's pace.

    Not sure about the graininess as I have never seen it but it seems to be the same fix as for the curser being off by 10 pixels. cycle though the screen modes with the F key. this has nothing to do with Snow Leopard as it is present in both Tiger and Leopard as well.
    This bug is only present when you create a new doc in full screen mode. If you are a new convert to Mac from Windows you might want to use the application frame, this will give you the gray background without those two annoyances. You can find the application frame at the bottom of the Window menu. this is a new feature on the Mac version with CS4.

  • TLS and Snow Leopard server issues

    I have a customer with Snow Leopard server running mail services. A few clients cannot email them due to what we think is a TLS related issue. Their host has TLS enabled for the mail server and they receive the below error message when sending to my customer:
    15:27:41.044 3 SMTP-406902(domain.com) failed to establish a secure connection with [xx.xx.xx.xx]:25. Error Code=X509: signature algorithms do not match.
    The host that cannot send seems to think it's a Postfix configuration issue but I don't know where to begin. It's not a firewall issue as we've tried that with no success.
    Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

    You are in the Leopard Server section, better to direct your question to the +Snow Leopard+ Section.

  • Snow Leopard Email Issues -totally lost, need help

    I am a fairly new iMac user so please answer with a "dummies" version.
    OK, I installed Snow Leopard and have had issues sending email. I have Verizon DSL - who in their ultimate wisdom just made some changes on Sept. 1 and are now blocking port 25. I have a .mac email account that seems to be working ok, but the smtp settings are for .me and I can't change anything because it's all greyed out. I also have several AOL accounts that used to arrive on my mac with no issues, and I could send email from them as well. I now have difficulty sending email and must enter a password every time (annoying to say the least). At first, I thought I had a Verizon problem, so I followed Verizon's instructions and changed the port setting to 527 (or close to it, I don't exactly remember but it was the correct setting specified by Verizon) but after that I couldn't even get my email so I changed it back to port 993. I guess my biggest problem is trying to figure out who screwed up the email - is it Snow Leopard, Is it Verizon, is it AOL???? All I know is I'm at my wits end of what to do and how to do it. I thought about deleting all the accounts and starting over but I don't want to lose all my past messages. If anyone has any suggestions I'll be happy to try something different... please remember baby steps needed here. Thanks ever so much!

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    First of all, any place you are observing to see Port 993 is probably the location of the port for the Incoming Server -- 993 would never work for the Outgoing. Are you seeing that at Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced?
    To adjust the port setting for Outgoing Servers, then in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information click on the arrows beside the name of the SMTP and choose Edit Server List. Once in that window, and if the name of the server is correctly entered, click on the Advanced Tab. Once under that tab, then for the MobileMe account (.mac/.me) choose Use Custom Port, enter 587, and furthermore enter the Username and Password. Do similarly for the Verizon account -- check or not check to use SSL per Verizon's advice. The AOL account will probably work with Use Default Port, and not SSL.
    Keep us posted.

  • Snow Leopard Display Issues on Waking

    My macbook pro developed a display issue after the upgrade to Snow Leopard. When I wake the computer from sleep, particularly if I've plugged/unplugged an external monitor while it was asleep, the display will show vertical lines and/or flutter from side to side (only the internal display.)
    I'm able to resolve this by putting the computer back to sleep. Wake it again, and all is fine.
    I have the 15" Core Duo with ATI Radeon X1600.
    Although there are some similarities, this seems to be distinct from the issue described in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1697470&tstart=0
    since it's unrelated to heat - it happens even with a cold computer that's been sleeping overnight, and the display anomalies are also different.
    I did not have any issue using Leopard, then this problem started immediately after upgrading to Snow Leopard (as in, after the first time I put it to sleep.)

    I use Ethernet so I cannot comment but have you tried trashing the airport pref.plist and removed the preferred networks in the network set up in System Preferences and then set up the wifi connection again?
