Not repsonding when placing or saving files

I have recently been having problems placing, saving and opening files in Illustrator.  The program either says not responding or just does nothing?  Please help!!!  I am running windows XP.

The option is arguably named poorly, enabling the option does change the behaviour, but not in the way you'd reasonably expect.

  • Authenication needed when moving or saving files to a folder

    I've been online searching but can't find a resolution to disabling having to authenticate when moving or saving files to any folder.
    I read something about using Terminal and tried the suggestion which was typing in
    sudo chawn -R yourshortname . Then putting in my password when prompted. It either will not type my password or not accept it.
    Can anyone help? Thanks

    You can't disable or correct it with that command. See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1216618 for more information.

  • Office 2013 applications cannot be made to show the "Documents" folder when opening and saving files

    (Windows Server 2012R2 and Windows 8.1 PRO)
    We are redirecting the user's "Documents" folder to the network (using Folder Redirection). The OS hides this fact however, and most applications simply see the "Documents" folder when opening or saving files, including Office 2003.
    Office 2013 however displays the actual path, which in this case is:
    \\sever1\redirect$\username\documents
    Even if you forcibly set the "Default local file location:"  in the Options Save area to the 'Documents' folder in, say, Word, Word immediately converts the local path to the network path.
    Is there anyway to get Office 2013 to follow the virtual path? All of other apps follow it and expose the users only to "Documents".
    Thank you so much.

    There's nothing in my FAQ concerning screen savers, so I'm unsure why you decided to take that approach. From your description, it looks like you only tried a few of the suggestions before throwing in the towel. That's fine, it's your call.
    I don't have the problems you described with 10.4.7. Usually when folks have problems after an update, these are caused by either installing an update on an already-corrutped system or they've installed third-party applications or hardware that have been rendered incompatible by the update.
    Before installing software updates, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems and gives you a fallback position in case trouble arises.
    Good luck!

  • When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%.

    When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%. When you select the placed file with the selection tool, it says 100%, but if you select with the direction tool, file has been changed any where from 98 to 102 %, not staying at the 100%? why is this and how can you asure the size does not change when placed or when updating the illustrator link?

    Probably you have inserted files in a frame whose content was previously adequate with "Fit Content Proportionally" or "Fill Frame Proportionally".
    The new content in the same frame will have the same characteristics as the previous one

  • Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7

    Hi, I ‘am a Graphic Designer and first time working in UAE Windows 7 is basically the only OS here. My PC is:
    HP Elite 7000
    Intel® Core™ i5 CPU 2.67GHz
    4GB RAM
    32-bit
    Now to the problem, not that knowledgeable in IT stuff so here goes:
    1. Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7. (You will actually see a “Not Responding” word coming out while opening and saving files, whether small or large files)
    2. Locked layers occasionally are moved accidentally.(Working on multiple layers is normal so we need to lock it specially the once on top. But there are times I still manage to select locked layers)
    3. After typing and locking the text, pressing “V” for the arrow key shortcut is still added to the text that is locked. (After typing I lock the text layer with my mouse and Press “V” to activate the arrow key… yes the arrow key is activated but the text is still typing the actual keyboard pressed)
    I’ve only use the brand new PC and installer for a month now. Not sure if this is compatibility issues or something else I’m not aware of.
    Thanks in advance to people that will reply.
    Cheers!!!

    Well I’m still wondering if it is compatibility issues because I’m also having problem with Photoshop CS5. These 3 are all bought at the same time (PC, Illustrator and Photoshop installers). The problem I’m having in Photoshop is not that too important, every time I Ctrl+O to view files, all PSD are shown in white paper like icons, no preview, and saving as well.
    Or I just purchased a corrupted or pirated installers… Adobe updates are done every time I’m prompted.

  • Added preset motions to my interactive pdf file. It's not working when I export my file as an inter

    I added preset motions to my interactive pdf file. It's not working when I export my file as an interactive pdf. It's working when I play it on the Preview panel. I must not be doing something right. Does anybody have any clue what I need to do to have my presets motions work when played on Acrobat

    So do you mean export the whole document in a swf file format and then bring the whole swf file in and save it as a pdf file.  Is there way to export these motion presets seperately and bring them back into Indesign. I wish it was less difficult but I guess there is no way around it for the time being.

  • Images not centred when placed into InDesign CC 2014

    Hello,
    Since updating to InDesign CC every time I place a new image into a doc it drops down within the containing box a by a few mm. Auto fit is not on and the problem happens when placing an image via cmd + d or dragging and dropping from bridge or finder. Any ideas?

    Thank you for your reply. I ditched the InDesign Defaults pref but couldn't find the InDesign SavedData file. I have uninstalled and put a fresh copy back on to my mac, this seems to have resolved the problem. I guess this was a pref file some where, I just could locate it.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Why does a TIF image look blurry when placed in InDesign file?

    Hi all,
    I've placed a logo in my InDesign file that I saved out of Photoshop. It appear blurry when in InDesign and I do have it set to high image quality display so that isn't the issue. It is also set as CMYK and I haven't resized it after saving from Photoshop.
    I tried saving a jpg so it would be crisper but then I have a white box behind it when placed in the InDesign file.
    Any help is greatly appreciated as I need to send it to print but can't let it go until I'm sure it won't print like a blurry mess.
    Thanks

    Sub-pixel sampling. Read up on it. you are placing your images at odd values and it gets resampled. Can be anything from the image inside the frame, the image frame itself, some styling option in ID...

  • Object layer options in InDesign not working when I revise my file in Photoshop?

    I have placed a layered photoshop file on multiple pages in my InDesign document. The photoshop file has a folder for each page that I can turn on in InDesign with object layer options. This works well until I revise the photoshop file in any way. When the photoshop file changes, InDesign updates all of the versions of the placed image to some sort of default, no longering recognizing the object layers I chose before revising the file. I've tried both "update link options" at the bottom of the dialog box to no avail. Any suggestions? I am using CS6, version 8.0. Thank you.

    In the Object Layers Override dialog for each instance have you got it set to preseerve the current layer visibility on relink?
    That should work UNLESS you change the number, naming or ordering of layers when you edit. If you do that ID no longer knows whaat to do and always uses the current layer visibility in the saved file.

  • TOC not updating when project is saved

    The Table of Contents is not saving when project is saved. To see saved changes, I have to close and reopen.

    Hi there
    Just to be clear, this *IS* RoboHelp HTML, no?
    In RoboHelp HTML, there is no dynamic link between the TOC items and Topic Names. Sure, if you rename the File Name in a topic so the HTML file name changes, it will automatically update the TOC so that the link isn't broken. But the TOC elements are stored in a separate file completely. So I'm really confused as to what you are seeing or expect to see. Once you have a topic in the TOC, the TOC node may represent the Topic Title. Perhaps:
    How to confgure the gizmo.
    But if you later change that Topic Title to read:
    How to configure the widget
    The TOC will not change automagickally. You will have to either re-run the wizard to create a new TOC or you will need to manually edit the TOC node so it is now correct.
    Cheers... Rick

    I don't understand where a pdf print setting would show up when CLOSING a file. What are you trying to do? To make a PDF from Illustraor, use SAVE AS. No other method is recommended or tested.

  • Audio component not apearing when importing AVCHD .MTS files

    When importing AVCHD .MTS files into Premiere Pro the Audio component is not available (also in After Effects and Media Encoder)
    What am I doing wrong :/

    You could most likely convert them using a program like 5DTORGB, and then pull them back into Premiere. Although there is a chance this won't work, however in most cases I find it usually does work. Just be prepared to lose your metadata.
    If your on a PC I'd recommend downloading their beta version it will allow you to transcode your AVCHD to ProRes HQ.
    http://rarevision.com/5dtorgb/
    All you have to is provide them a correct email address and they'll send you a download link. When you transcode though keep in mind that it's going to make your file sizes much much larger, however this because ProRes is much less compressed than AVCHD video is. You do need to keep in mind though that ProRes HQ is visually lossless. If you chose to use another free converter program you'll most likely get stuck chosing a lossy format. Another nice thing though, is that it works on MAC too. Your shooter needs to know not to do this again though, because as you already know at this point. It can cause big issues...
