Is it possible to change a jpg file back to an ai file?

Before I begin I am a complete novice. Never used a mac before, never used illustrator before.
My sister made some wedding invitations for me on illustrator which I ordered last week. They have arrived but unfortunately there is an error on both the front and inside. She has since gone travelling, so is unable to rectify this.
I have her mac and have managed to change the front cover however there is no ai file for the interior image, only a jpg. I have spoke to her, and we have spent a long time trying to track down the ai file but it's completely disappeared, no idea what's happened and she cannot think of any reason why it would have been deleted.
Is it possible to change a jpg file back to an ai file so I can edit the text? It is a very simple edit (mistake is RSPV instead of RSVP ). She mentioned trying to just put a box over the text but there is an image in the background so I don't think this is possible for a novice like me.
Can anybody (in very simple terms) give me any advice? I am starting to panic (sister isn't back for 18 months, wedding in just over 2 months!).
Thanks

In that case automatic vectorization won't get you anywhere.
Use Photoshop and move the two letters around. You might be lucky and noone notices.
Can you show a screenshot?

  • Is it possible to change the touchpad settings back to an older version after updating to maverick?

    Hello!
    I just updated to Maverick (really late I know) and I found that I really dislike the new options for the touchpad.
    My question is the following:
    Is is possible to change it back to the old options while keeping the new OS?
    Hope you can help me out.
    - Kanib

    No.  If you want the prior options, you will have to revert to the prior OSX.
    Ciao.

  • Possible to change the front and back speaker volume ?

    Hello, as it says in the topic, i was wondering if it is possible to change the volume of the front and the back speakers (the same way it is possible to change the volume of the center speaker).
    If anyone could tell me wether this is possible at all i would largely appreciate.
    Specs:
    Creative Inspire T5900 speaker system
    Creative SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 Digital
    Windows XP

    The older Mac Pros had a separate board for the front panel connectors. Looking at pictures of the 2009 Mac Pro back-plane board I can't see any soldered on connectors. Based on the link below for an older Mac Pro it looks like it could be as easy as making a cable to replace the front panel board USB cable with one that could connect to a USB PCIe card (when they are available for Macs).
    http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/lovemacs2113427757506
    Edit: Assuming that there is no additional circuitry on the front panel board that has to be USB3 compliant.
    Edit (again): I missed the fact that USB3 uses a different connector so you would have to replace the entire board with one that has USB3 connectors on it. It is unlikely Apple or even a third party would make one.

  • Changing a prn file back to a pdf file

    I was using an on line pdf reader and did not have a printer, so I saved it  not a pdf file but a file to print (prn) file.
    How do I convert it back to a pdf file and so I can print it?

    You probably can't. But it depends. Do you know what printer driver you used to make the PRN file?

  • Is It Possible To Change A Visited Link Back To Its Original Color???

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out if there is a way in Dreamweaver to change a visited link back to the orignal color it was before you visited it?
    Another words, I have some links on the webpage I am creating.  I set the "link colors" to brown.  Then I set them to blue once they become "visited links".  This is indeed exactly what I want my webpage to do.  HOWEVER, when working on my page in Dreamweaver and having to constantly preview it in a browser, I don't want the links to remain blue.  Every time I preview my page in a browser the links are all blue because I have already clicked on them before while previewing them.  I am wondering if there is a way to like refresh the page you are building so that the links go back to the original brown color, so that each time I preview my page the links will be brown and not blue?
    Anyone know if there is a way?
    Thanks.

    Ha, I found out what to do.  It had nothing to do with Dreamweaver.  It was simply my browser remembering I had already previewed that page.  All I did was simply clear my private data out my browser, and voila, the links were back to brown!

  • How do you convert win mail.dat files back to MS office files?

    Microsoft files (e.g. excel) when forwarded as attachments and received by MacBook Winmail, get converted to winmail.dat files.  However, MS Office products cannot open these winmail.dat files.  Does anyone have a solution for this "bug"?

    The fault lies with Microsoft Outlook, the email client you are using on your PC. The Winmail.dat file is used to preserve Rich Text formatting. Outlook uses it when sending a Rich Text-formatted message. During transport, the content of the message may be changed, preventing the receiving client from being able to read the formatting instructions. In other cases, the receiving client does not use or recognize the winmail.dat file.
    The data in a winmail.dat file is not usable (without conversion see below). To resolve this issue within Outlook, send the messages in plain text format.  You can change the format of the email messages that you send from Outlook by using the following steps: 
    On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click Mail Format.
    In Compose in this message format, click to select Plain Text, and then click OK.
    Did I mention that I detest Outlook. It's not your fault. The gentlemen idiots at Microsoft make the egregious assumption that all your recipients all use Outlook, and don't adequately inform users that they have to change settings to communicate with the rest of the world.
    You can also use TNEF "enough" (which is easier than getting your senders to behave LOL)

  • Is it possible to change zero options in "Secure empty trash"?

    In the "Secure Empty Trash" feature in Tiger, is it possible to change the settings regarding how many times the file being deleted is zeroed out? Can I choose a 1-pass or a 7-pass, etc?

    I don't think the "Finder" itself offers a way to change the number of overwrites performed during a "secure empty trash". Note that "secure empty trash" just calls '/usr/bin/srm', using the '-m' option -- 7 passes, including zeroes, FF, F6 and random according to the 'man' page.
    Depending on what you are after, and being mindful of the different possible paths for items in the "Trash" in OS X, you might be able to use 'srm' directly, using the options of your choice. Though not recommended, if you get into hacking system files, the options probably can also be changed to some extent from there.

  • How do you change a photoshop file back to an .eps extention

    I am trying to help a user convert a photoshop file back into an .eps file. She was unable to open the ,eps file so I installed the Premiere Elements 13 to her workstation and point the file to open with  Premiere and now it changed all her .eps files to photoshop files. How do I convert back?

    You can't do that using Photoshop it being a raster based application. In order to convert back to a vector based eps file you will have to use Illustrator and do a bunch of things to recreate the vectors.
    If you save to eps in Photoshop they will not be vector based files.

  • How do I change a mobile account back to a local account?

    I posted this under the "Using OS X Server" but having got any replies, so I thought I'd post it under PHD.
    Our company split into two seperate companies. We moved and the server stayed. All of our machines were on the server and had portable home directories. We no longer connect to a server. And the server we were connected to is no more. So we can't access it at all. Reinstall is not an option.
    I want to know if it's possible to change a mobile account back to a local account. Login takes FOREVER!! And I can't access my "Login Items" under "Accounts" in System Preferences. Is there anyway to fix this?
    Whenever I log into my administrator account on the machine, login is very quick.
    Are there some preferences I can delete or change? I went into Directory Access on my machine and unchecked the LDAPv3 and all of the other check boxes just to make sure, but it didn't have any effect.
    I also tried deleting the "Mirrors" folder and preferences file, but when I log back in, it's there again.

    Dont just untick the LDAPv3 Plug in, you have to
    select Configure and Delete the configuration, save
    the changes then quit.
    I did that.
    Navigate to /Library/Managed
    Preferences and remove any preferences there.
    Did that too. But whenever I log back in. They are there again.
    Next lauch NetInfo Manager in /Applications/Utilities,
    click on the lock and authenticate, select Config and
    delect mcx_cache.
    I did this also. There were actually 2 mcx_cache folders. One in the /config/mcx_cache and another at /mcx_cache. I deleted both of them.
    Next select System Preferences >
    Accounts and delete the Mobile Account thats there –
    it should have Mobile Account beneath it.
    This is the part I can't do because I need that account. If I delete the mobile user, I lose that account and I can't do that. Any suggestions here?

  • .indd file behaving like an .indl file.

    One of my .indd files is behaving like an .indl file. Anyone know how to get my .indd file back? The .indd file opens as if it is a library instead of a document.

    That looks normal enough. Just this one file giving you trouble?
    There are two things we could try next. First would be Replace Your Preferences. Next would be trying to open on another machine and do a Save AS and see if it can be cleaned up. Maybe even, if it opens properly on another system, try Remove minor corruption by exporting before bringing it back to your Mac.

  • How to put exported iPod Garageband files back onto Garageband?

    Hi,
    Last year before I got a new iPod Touch I exported my Garageband song files onto my laptop using the "file sharing" feature on iTunes, at the bottom of the "apps" screen. I now want to put these files back onto Garageband on my latest iPod but am not sure how. The songs have saved  in folders titled *songname*.band and upon entering the folders I am presented with more  folders entitled ontents, media, output and thumbs. There is also a standalone file named ProjectData. I've tried adding the ProjectData file to garageband, but this has no effect.
    Both iPods were 4th gen. My current IOS is 6.1.6.
    So in short, how can I get the songs contained in these folders back into my iPod touch?
    Thank you for any assistance.

    You should be able to sync your projects back to the iPod, if you add the .band files back to the GarageBand file sharing area in iTunes, when you sync your iPod again.
    But this will only work, if you did not open the projects in GarageBand on your Mac and convert them to GarageBand for Mac projects.

  • Is it possible to change file name policy in the JRE cache folder?

    We are getting calls from our clients complaining of slowdowns in loading our Java applet. The reason is a virusscanner. If a virusscanner is in the middle, it can drastically slow down the download process, and therefore cause some high delay before the user can work on the our product as expected.
    On this csutomer's side, it may take up to 10 min (the first time it is ran) instead of 1 min. JRE 1.6 is in use.
    They dont want to exclude from antivirus scan all files from Sun\Java\Deployment\cache folder.
    Question:
    Is it possible to change file name policy in the JRE cache to make it less unique?
    Thanks,

    I suggest you solve the real problem - big files.
    There are two scenarios
    1. Initial download
    2. Updates.
    The first takes as long as it takes. No way around it.
    The second means that you can't use one jar. Otherwise every single update requires downloading the entire application every time. Multiple jars means only the one that changed is downloaded.

  • Is it possible to change the file Kind, e.g. mkv to video and not document?

    Is it possible to change the file Kind, e.g. mkv to video and not document?
    I can't find where I can change this in Finder or OSX.  Is this really hardoded in the OS?  Get Info gives me no options, but that is where I set the default apps for file kinds (types).
    I hope this is possible because I have lot of document kinds and the arrange by kind view in Finder is thus not very useful.
    Thanks in advance.

    It has to be hard-coded in the application that claims MKV files as a type.
