My vector (flattened) images are pixellated when imported in Illustrator. How do I fix this?

Hello.
I am experiencing an issue in Adobe Illustrator.
When attempting to import picture files in Illustrator from PhotoShop, the image appears blurred/pixellated. The image (a .psd file) is converted in Illustrator to a .ai file. I create vector (flattened) images in PhotoShop, which should maintain their picture clarity and quality regardless of what program the vectored image is opened with. Somehow, they are becoming pixellated when converted to .ai files in Illustrator.
I use both Adobe CS6 and Adobe Creative Cloud
Is there a setting or solution that I can implement to rectify this issue?
Many thanks in advance for everyone's input and assistance.

Hello, Doug and John.
Thank you for your replies and for providing feedback.
I am aware that vector format files are only for illustrator. However, I believe you can make a smart object in photoshop using the vector art and it will keep its vector file format in photoshop allowing it to not pixelate.
I would be more interested in seeing if uninstalling and reinstalling the programs would have anything to do with it and also trying to find the settings. Would anyone happen to know if this will resolve the issue? I am hoping this is correct forum in which to post this topic/issue.
Thank you again for your help.

See Remove minor corruption by exporting to find the path to the hidden folder in your user profile that has the InDesign SavedData file. In the same folder you will find an InDesign Recovery folder. Empty that and ID should start OK.

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to rebuild the thumbnails. It can take 3 or 4 goes for this to work

The movie is from iTunes. You would think that a download from iTunes to a MacBook could be watched on an HDTV using Apple TV without any headaches bit this does not appear to be the case.

You say you have iOS 7 beta. If you are a developer you have access to the private OS 7 developer's forum

Try updating to iPhoto 9.4.1. If it's not appearing in your Software Update yet, try updating using a .dmg installer downloaded from the following page on the Apple website:
iPhoto 9.4.1

HT3775 my computer does not recognize or import my movies how do I fix this issue?

when I connect my camera to iMovie, I cannot import my movies, How can I fix this issue?

Do you mean that iTunes on the Mac doesn't recognize the iPad - you cannot see your iPad name under the devices heading in iTunes?
or....
iTunes wants to erase your iPad because you have never synced with this iTunes library before? If you need to make this Mac your syncing Mac now and were unable to move your iTunes library over to the new Mac, read this user tip. It was written for the iPhone, but works the same way for the iPad.

When listening to a podcast the voices are talking to fast to understand, how can I fix this?

I am trying to listen to a podcast and the voices are like the chipmunks talking. How can I fix it?

Actually - sounds enertaining .
There is an adjustment in the app for speed. shows up in the upper right corner of the podcast, I think, at least for video podcasts.
If that doesn't help, try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Import Madness! How do I fix this mess?

ok, so I had all my photos extracted from their previous locations into just one folder, deleted almost 8000 duplicates, then imported the remaining 28,000+ into Aperture.
Aperture did move the files to the new default folder (/Media Drive/Pictures) but arranged them in dated subfolders (1999/10/22). I wasn't expecting this, but hey, that's cool.
Except...these folder dates appear to have NOTHING to do with the actual date of the photos! The 1999/10/22 folder is full of pictures with a creation date of 3/25/2007 !
Also - on import, Aperture split the photos into projects (by date) but named the Projects in sequential order. I now have Project 1 through Project 732.
So how can I fix this?
Do I have to import into Projects instead of into folders?
How do I get Aperture to recognize the correct photo dates?
I'm not opposed to trashing the library and reimporting the whole thing again, but I would need some better instructions on how to get the import to work better before I do that....

Dixonge,
Aperture did move the files to the new default folder (/Media Drive/Pictures) but arranged them in dated subfolders (1999/10/22). I wasn't expecting this, but hey, that's cool.
Can you explain this further? Did you choose the option to have Aperture store the files in the Aperture library? It sounds like it, and if so, then you should pretty much ignore anything inside the Aperutre library package. When you say "folder", you are talking about a folder in Finder, right? (With a name like "/Media Drive/Pictures", it does not sound like you are looking at Aperture when describing this problem.)
Also - on import, Aperture split the photos into projects (by date) but named the Projects in sequential order. I now have Project 1 through Project 732.
So how can I fix this?
That's an option in the Aperture preferences under the "Import" tab. You had Aperture auto-split your entire huge, uncoordinated dircetory into smaller chunks to make it more managable. This is usually used, for instance, when you take pictures 3 days in a row without importing into Aperture. Auto-splitting there makes sense -- you automatically get three projects, one for each day. However, it sounds like you wanted the entire 28000+ into one project? Are you sure about that? You will probably want to organize all those photos into more appropriate projects someday. If you start with one project per day, it may be easier to figure out how to organize them, than if you start with one huge project.
Do I have to import into Projects instead of into folders?
You always import into a Project. Photos are stored in projects.
You should read the following page from the Aperture manual, at the very least:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=3%26sec tion=1http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=3%26sec tion=1
How do I get Aperture to recognize the correct photo dates?
I think this will depend on your elaboration from my earlier question. Aperture is using your corrcet photo dates. Can you explain, what exactly (in terms of what part of the Aperture window) makes you think Aperture is not showing you the correct dates?
