Im using "transform again" after scaling.  It scales but center point moves, why?

I have a bunch of stuff i need to enlarge 200%.  I selected one and scaled it.  I selected the second one and did CTRL+D for "transform again".  It works but it moves it to the side, seems like its centerpoint is where the first object is that i scaled.  I dont want this!  I want it to scale in the center for each one I do.  How do I tell it to do this?

...but i have to group everything before transforming...
Surely you mean 'select' rather than 'group.' If so, then... um... yes.
See Larry's post above.

  • Why is the rotate point moving when using Transform Again on a triangle?

    I am trying to create a pattern that I have created in previous itterations of Illustrator. In CC when I create a triangle (either via Star, Poly, or Pen tool) and then try to rotate it via Transform Each > Transform again, the rotation point moves according to what the bounding box would be if I reset it, rather than staying in one (original) spot relative to the actual bounding box and triangle. I cannot find any settings that would be affecting the rotate point in this way. I am pretty confident that I am using the same procedure now that I did in older versions of Illustrator. Perhaps I am using the wrong procedure.
    Naturally, if you are rotating something around its center you should expect that it would end up create a circular pattern. It is more of a square with concave sides. The red is a perfect circle that I grouped to the triangle to demonstrate the rotate points movement. It is located in the exact center according to the align tools.

    With the rotate tool, option click to set you point of rotation.
    You also may want to look into the transform effect, theres is a box with 9 points for your anchor points you can try. You can also add an object filled with none, group this with your object, and transform the group, to get offset results with the transform effect.

  • Unable to open and or click onto any upper portion of my screen while using firefox, even after i updated it. but under explorer...i do not have this concern/problem.

    it happens EVERYTIME i try to use firefox, tried rebooting, tried to delete java interely and still same thing. i just added java again and still same results, but only under firefox. i am stationed in the middle east/deployed so finding a computer store is out, and only certain military websites are preferred under your firefox, so it is time-sensitive as well.

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause this issue. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • Using iTunes again after complete op system reload

    My windows XP machine got trashed by a virus and has had a complete op system reload. When I re-installed iTunes it found my old library on the disk but now iTunes refuses to sync with my iPod as it says that the iPod is linked to a different library.
    Is there any way to persuade iTunes that it is in fact my library so that I can carry on using it as before ?
    My iPod is a iPod Touch - 2nd generation - and has been upgraded to the latest version of the op system (3.x from memory).
    Many thanks

    well done, NoahsMyBro!
    hmmmm. some thoughts (speculation warning) on what might have gone wrong with the QT. a system restore "over top" of a fresh itunes install will strip out some installation registry entries from both QT and itunes. (under those circumstances, itunes won't launch, spitting out a "some of the required files ..." error message.)
    under those circumstances, i usually recommend uninstall QT and itunes prior to the reinstall. (of course, you had other more pressing things to worry about at the time ...) i've been doing that because the QT component of the itunes installer bundle can be a little more delicate than the itunes component when it comes to installing "over top" of existing program files and folders. i think it's partly to do with the fact that it's the second install in the chained install (more can go wrong with it). so the QT may have been compromised on the reinstall, even though the itunes part of the install went through fine.
    you don't tend to get the same QT install problems on a standalone QT install (again, speculation, but it seems plausible) because it's not the second install in a chain.
    love, b

  • Using iTunes again after moving to new city

    I'm moving cross-country in about a week, and I'm going to ship my computer to my new apartment.
    Will I lose any of the songs I have on iTunes by unplugging and shipping my computer?
    Will I need to reinstall iTunes?
    And I have some free song downloads that I haven't used yet. Will I lose them?

    Will I lose any of the songs I have on iTunes by unplugging and shipping my computer?
    You shouldn't but you do have a backypup of your hard dive, correct?
    Will I need to reinstall iTunes?
    You are simply unplugging your computer. You aren't deleting anything from it.
    And I have some free song downloads that I haven't used yet. Will I lose them?
    As long as they do not have an expiration date (such as the codes that come on th ePeps bottle caps and the like).

  • Why my iPhone 5 freeze for around 10-15 seconds before I can continue using it again after every calls?, Why my iPhone 5 freeze for around 10-15 seconds before I can continue using it again after every calls?

    It's annoying as every time I want to make urgent calls need to wait for a long time before I can use it again

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

    Syncing via iCloud is NOT a backup.
    Syncing keeps everything in sync between your devices and iCloud.com. So, if you add, delete or modify a contact on one device, the same action will occur on all other devices.
    Your contacts are included as part of an iOS device backup to iCloud, if you gave that option turned on. You would have to restore the whole device to recover your contacts.

  • Black screen after waking from sleep, but mouse pointer visible

    I'm not sure if this is the same as the many other posts on problems connecting the Mac Mini to an external monitor. In my case, after it wakes, there is no login menu - but the mouse pointer is visible and I can move it around the screen no problem.
    At present, I have to power the Mac Mini down and back up again, which is unacceptable.
    What's causing this and how can I fix it?

    Yes, I have this problem too. I reported to Apple about 3 or 4 weeks ago. They said no one else ever reported it and said they would escalate it but they have never got back too me. It is a pain because my mini is a media center pc and hard to get to when this happens.
    For now the work around I use is to unplug the mini dvi connecter and plug it back in; this fixes the issue until the next time it happens.
    +My mini (2009 version) is connected using the mini-dvi connector to a Denon receiver (with a DVI->hdmi connector) which is then connected to a sony 1080p TV. This replaced an older mini (intel duo) which did not have this problem using the same setup.+

  • Firefox keeps crashing while using the scroll button on my mouse but only on facebook Why?

    using facebook on firefox is a nightmare. When i scroll through my news feed it just crashes out of the blue i can take a video if necessary and upload it. I have already made a new profile before and it hasnt worked and in safe mode it still crashes. Its getting annoying it has been going on for months and still no fix in sight. I use all the betas to see if maybe it changes but it doesn't. I even use the stable versions and nothing. I have cleaned all temp files I do not have flash hardware acceleration on and do not have hardware acceleration on in firefox at all it makes my text weird and my graphic card drivers are updated. I do not know what to do anymore this is the only site it crashes on and I refuse to use internet explorer or chrome so please please please fix this. I only use Fast dial and a plugin for youtube but like I said in safe mode it still crashes so Its not the addons.

  • "Transform Again" no longer scales...

    Hello all,
    In Illustrator CC 2014 the ability to use "transform again" (or Ctrl+D) when scaling objects no longer functions as it always has for years. It seems now the only "transform again" does is duplicate an object. It no longer works for scaling, moving or stretching an object (as in, to repeat the last function) - only to duplicate the selected object. I used the shortcut daily and often so I noticed it right away. I've searched Google and the Adobe forums, but I didn't see anyone mention this.
    Has this functionality been moved to some other command? I can't seem to find a new setting for it or a way to restore the functionality to the "transform again" command.
    Any help is appreciated! Thank you in advance.
    ~angel

    Create a rectangle using the "Rectangle" tool > Scale (or Rotate) > Ctrl-D (or Object>Transform>Transform Again) > ---- Object Fails to Scale and "translates" or moves across the art board ---
    Create a rounded rectangle using the "Rounded Rectangle Tool" tool > Scale (or Rotate) > Ctrl-D (or Object>Transform>Transform Again) > ---- Object Fails to Scale and "translates" or moves across the art board ---
    If you start with any other basic object creation tool beside rectangle or rounded rectangle, "Transform Again" functions as intended (even on newly created rectangles).
    Create a polygon (with any number of sides - I chose four) using the "Polygon" tool > Scale (or Rotate) > Ctrl-D (or Object>Transform>Transform Again) > --- SUCCESS --- Object scales toward center of previous transformation, as expected
    Create an ellipse using the "Ellipse" tool > Scale (or Rotate) > Ctrl-D (or Object>Transform>Transform Again) > --- SUCCESS --- Object scales toward center of previous transformation, as expected
    Create a star using the "Star" tool > Scale (or Rotate) > Ctrl-D (or Object>Transform>Transform Again) > --- SUCCESS --- Object scales toward center of previous transformation, as expected
    ...or see my other posts above...
    I've also discovered that if you open a drawing made in a previous version of illustrator, the functionality returns and works correctly on any pre-existing rectangle in that document (in Illustrator CC 2014). Newly created rectangles will fail.
    Thank you.

  • Illustrator CC won't scale with "transform again"

    Coming from CS6, this is a feature I used all the time. However when I scale an object in CC and use transform again (Ctrl + D) to repeat the transformation on another object, it ignores the scaling and just repeats the most recent translation ie. it just moves the object rather than resizing it.
    I don't even know where to start to fix this, any ideas?

    pigeonbreath,
    Unless it has changed (you may have a look at the Object>Transform first option), it may be time for the list.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Apps requesting I pay to download again after rese...

    I have just had to reset my Nokia N8 to factory defaults, but have found that I have lost all of my apps and games. I have been working my way through my Ovi Store purchase history, but some premium apps are requesting that I have to pay again to re-download these apps, despite already paying for them before
    What is the protocol regarding such items? Do I have to contact each app developer individually to attempt to waive the purchase fee? Or is here a simpler way around this?
    I would have thought that items listed in my purchase history would be free to download again and again after every factory reset, but apparently not... I really don't want to have to pay out for these apps a second time, as the reason why I had to perform the reset was not my fault!

    Go to the Ovi store on the web, look in support, and contact us, send a message describing your issue and you will be sent an email with a link and code to re-download your app.

    I am using iPhone 4 from the last one year and went dead and got it replaced by paying Rs.12500/- to Nyasa Sion Koliwada Mumbai Service Provider but now again after 38days the problem has started, what do i do? Is this is the quality & service we boost? On visiting the store we get only one reply you may write to Apple directely. we have the similar kind of problem with iPad which is being used by my wife Mr.Neelam Vij and paid Rs.16000/- to get it replaced within a year & 6months use. so in totality we have paid Rs.28500/- + Rs. 3000/- diagnostic charges.
    1. iPhone 4 , 32 GB Black with Sr. No. 88******A4T
    2. iPad 2, 16GB White with Sr. No.DL*******KPH
    Moreover, we have no information to contact whom. even the replace set has a warranty of only three month which further confirm that Apple itself is not confident wheather product will last after replacement for more then three month. Such kind of happening do not encourage anyone to recomend this product to anyone. Would appriciate a faster response to our problem if someone from Apple is going to read this email.
    Thanks & Regards
