Layers disappear when creating a symbol

Hello,
I've created a symbol using several layers, however when I play the composition back, nothing is visibile. What am I missing? The symbol is made up of 2 lines that sprint out from another object.

Yes you can edit your symbols. Right click on the element panel and chose edit symbol. Remember that like in Flash, all instances will be changed to the new edit.

Layers disappear when saving in CS6

My layers disappear when I try to save in Photoshop CS6. They disappear when I get to the last step before saving(where you can select the quality and stuff). The effects stay, but they become kind of crappy. I've no idea how this happened either. I was just working on some pictures one by one, and then suddenly, it started happening. I did nothing differently.
Reinstalling didn't help either. What the hell is going on?

You're seeing normal behaviour/results. Most image file formats do not support layers and there can be subtle to huge differences in the display of a layered doc versus its flattened composite because Photoshop uses imprecise shortcuts to generate the composited display of a layered doc. The display discrepancies can be minimised by viewing at 100% zoom.
While working on a document, check adjustment layers, effects and layer blending with zoom at 100% so there are no nasty surprises lurking in the doc. (Of course, I realise that there's a very good chance that you may be viewing only a small region of an image when zoom is 100%.)
Regarding the JPEG save in particular: when you are at the stage of picking quality/compression, there is an option of previewing the result of the compression. JPEG doesn't support layers, hence the flattened composite at that stage. Your open doc will still be layered after you commit the save.

Layers disappear when inserting HTML

I hope there is a simple solution to this. I am trying to use
layers for a simple webpage and when I insert Fireworks HTML into a
layer, all of my layers disappear and become layout cells on my
page. Has anyone seen this before?

CS3 Layers disappear when importing map into InDesign

I have an Illustraor .ai file of a map with many layers and when I import it into my InDesign document
some of the layers disappear. When I open the map in Illustrator they are all turned on but in InDesign some seem as they are turned off or transparent. Very frustrating...any help is appreciated!

Thanks so much for your responses. Although I don't complete understand what the issue was becasue I am no Illustrator expert I did find a solution. I found that there were multiple layers within a layer and also many of those layers had paths/compound paths. So I pulled the layers within out and made new separate layers for them all and removed unnecessary compound paths. So now I have many layers instead of a couple layers with multiple layers within. Confusing I know...but it worked!
Thanks again for your input.

Payment option 'none' disappeared when creating account

When creating a new iTunes account, the option to select no payment option ('none') has disappeared. The only options available are Visa, Mastercard and Amex.
Have tried this on both an iPad an an iPhone and the option is not available.
I've created a number of accounts over the past 2/3 weeks and the option was available then.
Anyone else having this problem or know what we can do about this?

This has never been an option when creating a new account.
After you create the account, None will show up to allow you to remove your CC info.
If you wish to create an account without a CC, you can do this
-> Create an iTunes App Store account without a credit card
I've created a number of accounts over the past 2/3 weeks
Why?

Images Disappear when creating PDF

When creating a PDF out of InDesign we are having issues with images diappearig when Postscript Overprint / Overprint Preview is on. When printing images also do not show up. When viewing in Reader Images do not show up. Has anyone run into this issue, we are running CS3 & CS4. Any help will be appreciated

Most likely cause is that the images are set to non-printing in some way, either inidvidually through the Atrributes Panel, or they're on a layer that is set to non-printing.

Files disappear when creating a new folder

I'm new to mac....got a macbook this week. I'm in Iraq so I have very limited access to anything. No internet for my mac at the moment...so I can't update even if there are ones. I assume I have the currenct version of everything though. The question...
While switching over my files I decided to reorganize them. I'm working on my external HD and creating many new folders for all my files. On numerous occasions now (4) I have created a new file the standard way...right click>new>file...then named it. On these occasions I have done this it has renamed the previous file I had worked in (even though it was not selected) and then the contents of the file disappeared. This leaves me with the new file I created and another identical file of the same name...now with nothing in it. Some of my files I have backed up, but the last one deleted many videos that I didn't. Happens randomly at no particular time. If I select the file and view its contents often it will briefly change its name back to the original name, but still nothing in it. Then next selection of anything will switch it back. Have not been able to fine the files anywhere. Tired of losing my files. Any ideas??? Thanks.

Hi Craig and Welcome to Apple Discussions....
First of all, thank you for all you are doing. It's so appreciated! Just be safe and come home soon.
Now... I have a feeling your external hard drive is the culprit. Read here:
Changing the names of items
You can easily change the name of a file, folder, or disk on your computer.
IMPORTANT: To avoid problems using Mac OS X or applications on your computer, don't move or change the names of folders that came with your system (such as the Library folder or your home). You should also not change the names of applications or items associated with specific applications. If you accidentally change the name of an installed item and you experience problems, you can change the name back.
Locate the item you want to rename on your desktop or in a Finder window.
Click the item to select it, then click the name. The name is highlighted and you will be able to edit it.
Type the new name and press Return.
Some document names have a file extension, such as ".txt" or ".jpg." If you change the name of a file and delete the extension, some applications may no longer recognize the file. To ensure the file can be recognized by the application that created it, change only the part of the name that comes before the extension, or open the file using the appropriate application, then save the file with a new name.
You cannot change the name of an item in the Finder window's sidebar. You must locate the item on your desktop or in a Finder window to highlight and change the name.
And more here:
Getting information about files and folders
You can view and modify information about files, applications, and volumes in the Info window. This information can include:
Comments that Spotlight can search on
Who can view and modify the item.
The applications that can open it.
Metadata that describes a file's contents and how it was created. For example, a photo's Info window may contain the picture's dimensions, exposure time, and the make and model of the camera.
To see information for one or more items, select the items and choose File > Get Info. An Info window opens for each selected item.
To see a summary of information about several items, select the items then hold down the Control key as you choose File > Get Summary Info. A window summarizes information on all selected items, including their total size.
To see information about each item as you select it, select one of the items then hold down the Option key as you choose File > Show Inspector. An Inspector window displays information on the selected item. When you select another item, the Inspector's contents are replaced with information on that item.
I realize that's a lot to digest and your time might be limited. This is something that only takes a few minutes and might help immediately.
Go to MacintoshHD/Applications/Utilities and locae Disk Utility. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left and then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Depending on the size of your drive, it should only take a few minutes. When it's finished, Quit Disk Utility from the Menu.
Here's how to find out exactly which Mac OS you are running. Click the Apple logo top left of your screen then click, About This Mac. A pane will open. Just under "Mac OS X" will be the version number. ie., 10.4.x
Reboot your MacBook and see if this helps.... I'm retired and have time... if you need one on one help e-mail me: [email protected]
It's the least I can do

Icons disappear when creating a jar file.

I am trying to make a runable jar file of an application that i wrote however, when i export it from eclipse the icons no longer appear. All of the icons are contained in a class called gridGui. Any help would be great.
Thanks
     //Creates all of the icon files used for the buttons
     Icon fiftyCents = new ImageIcon("Fifty_Cents.gif");
     Icon oneDollar = new ImageIcon("One_Dollar2.gif");
     Icon twoDollar = new ImageIcon("Two_Dollar.gif");
     Icon threeDollar = new ImageIcon("Three_Dollar.gif");
     Icon fiveDollar = new ImageIcon("Five_Dollar.gif");
     Icon tenDollar = new ImageIcon("Ten_Dollar.gif");
     Icon freePlay = new ImageIcon("Free_Play.gif");
     Icon blank = new ImageIcon("Blank.gif");
     Icon unflipped = new ImageIcon("UnFlipped.gif");
     Icon oneDollarCoupon = new ImageIcon("One_Dollar_Coupon.gif");
     Icon threeDollarCoupon = new ImageIcon("Three_Dollar_Coupon.gif");
     Icon tShirt = new ImageIcon("TShirt.gif");
     Icon youLose = new ImageIcon("You_Lose.gif");

You are using the ImageIcon constructor that takes a file name argument. When you create the jar file the source for the images are no longer files but entries in your jar file. You have to access them using the ImageIcon constructor that takes a URL argument.
The actual URL you use is obtained (eg) from the Class method [getResource()|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Class.html#getResource(java.lang.String)].
Suppose your Fifty_Cents.gif was in your jar file in the folder "images" then you could say:
Icon fiftyCents = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/images/Fifty_Cents.gif");Note the use of forward slashes and the fact that Fifty_Cents.gif has to be capitalised exactly as it is within the jar file.
There are other ways of organising the resources - see the getResource() documentation for details.

Why do my layers disappear when I save a .jpg?

Photoshop has learned a new trick in my office today:
I arrange all of my text and layers the way I want them, get all ready to save and my group of layers becomes invisible. This is odd. They are all set to be visible in the layers window, soI select the group, use the move tool to wiggle them and they reappear. I put them back where they belong, all is good, I save my .jpg and the layers are not visible when I open the .jpg. They are, however, visible in the thumbnail version of the image in Windows Explorer. I go back to Photoshop and the layers are invisible again in spite of being set to visible.
I am at a loss. I have never experienced this before. I thought maybe it was my video card screwing up so I restarted my computer and the problem is still there. Has anyone experienced this before?

Maybe this will help. This is a screenshot of what I am talking about. All of the layers that I have circled in red should have a picture of a TV, some text, shapes, etc. All are marked as visible yet I can't see them.They are not off the drawing board, nor are they under the background. If I select the containing group and move it, they become visible again.
This is directly after trying to save a .jpg.
This is what it looks like when I try to view my .jpgs in Windows. This is the filmstrip view. When I open the .jpg in Windows Picture Viewer, all I get is the background image like the one here but if you look at the thumbnail, you can see what it is supposed to look like. I have never seen this happen before in 2 years of working with Photoshop.
Any help or direction with this would be greatly appreciated, I am at a loss as to what could be causing this.

CS6 2D layers disappear when 3D layer added

Doesn't seem to matter if it's classic or raytrace renderer. All non 3d layers become invisible. If I make them 3D, they appear. Strangely, if I nest the comp into another comp, everything shows up only when viewing through the new comp.

File it under the "one more of those CS6 bugs" category. Though you might try to check, whether the issue actualyl occurs when only running with the internal display. You could simply be running out of resources for all that hardware acceleration crap they threw into the program.

Layers disappear when I click on them

I have photoshop elements 9. When I go to click on a layer to move it, the layer disappears or moves to an obscure location without me moving the cursor. I have tried restarting the program but it does not seem to work. Any suggestions?

If you move a layer below a layer with no transparency in it--i.e., the whole layer is opaque, it will disappear since what's on top covers what's below it. If that's not what's happening, try deleting the preferences: quit the editor, then restart it while holding down ctrl+alt+shift (command+option+shift on a mac), and keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.
