Old Illustrator file, revised to new, saved to pdf, reverting back to old Illustrator file

After making a new Illustrator file from an old one, then saving it as a pdf, the new Illustrator file reverts back to old one. I have been using the pdf to make the Illustrator file again (luckily I've saved it as editable) but I don't always want to add this extra procedure. Does anyone have this issue or any clues on how this happens and how to fix the problem?

when you made your changes and then saved as, you saved your changes to a new file. your original file closes without saving and the open file in illustrator is the new one (in your case the PDF).
evertime you save as you are making a new file without affecting the old file.
you should first save your changes and then save as. but after the save as, the opened file will no longer be the original file.
if you do a Save As Copy. then you will be saving a new file which will be closed and your original file will remain open.

  • When transferring data from an old hard drive to a new one, is there a way to keep alias files and folders in tact?

    My mac and I rely HEAVILY on the use of alias files and folders. The simple version of my question is: When transferring data from an old hard drive to a new one, is there a way to keep alias files and folders in tact?  These are not symlinks or symbolic links, they're all alias files and folders. 
    Is there any software out there that might help me with a solution?  Are there any tricks or tips you can give me to try?

    Use either Setup Assistant at first start, or Migration Assistant on subsequent occasions and all will be transferred intact. Given your wording I presume you are Unix savvy and will appreciate the problems that duplicate userids would cause, so of you use MA for the migration, make sure the target Mac has no userid equal to that on the source and you will be fine.
    SA does not have these issues since it runs before any user account is created, so it can simply copy over everything. But MA runs after the fact and only solves the issue partially by changing the UID in the user directory, leading to permission problems.

  • Got to end of trial period for Adobe reader XI and cannot revert back to old version or install another version b/c it says I have a newer more functional version, so now I've got no reader at all and cannot fix. Any ideas how to overcome this?.

    Got to end of trial period for Adobe reader XI and cannot revert back to old version or install another version b/c it says I have a newer more functional version, so now I've got no reader at all and cannot fix. Any ideas how to overcome this?.

    YOu need to be clear about the products you are using, so we can help you. In particular there is no trial of Adobe Reader, it is free and keeps running. Sounds like you are using some versions of Acrobat - which?
    YOu must properly uninstall the trial, don't just delete files or you may get a mess impossible to recover.

    Restopre from backup
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    Also,
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

  • Revert back to Old status if ticket results in error..

    Go to transaction CRM_DNO_MONITOR. Select a ticket for display. Let the status of the selected ticket be NEW. Now input all information in standard and screen Enhancement(By EEWB) input fields. Now make an action 'assign' After saving the status will change to Assign. But at the same time there is a screen validation dependant on the status change from New to assign. According to that the validation happens in PBO event of the Screen enhancement where we are getting Old as well as new status. Here it is found that remarks in long text is to be entered while this perticular status change is happening. but the same is not done. So there is a error message that 'you have not entered remarks general'.
       When the error occurs the status should change back from assign to New. Since user may go out of ticket without saving Or the error pop up will throw you out of ticket. When the user again opens the same ticket, the status of the ticket is Assign. So there should be a BADI or open routine available after before the update to database happens for the new status. Also this enhancement should happen after Screen Enhancement(By EEWB)'s PBO event. So validation of screen enhancement can be carried out.
       In short please provide enhancement or routine or function module which can revert back to old status.

  • Change Outlook Calendar background color but its reverts back to old on restart

    Dear Support,
    I am trying to change Outlook Calendar background color but its reverts back to old on restart 

    Hi,
    Let's take Outlook 2013 for example, go to FILE tab ->
    Options -> Calendar -> Display options
    -> Select the Default calendar color and the checkbox for
    Use this color on all calendar ->
    OK.
    In case the Navigation Pane is corrupted, we may try starting Outlook with the switch "/resetnavpane":
    Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /resetnavpane” in the blank box, then press Enter.
    I hope this helps.

  • Update from 6.0.2 to 7.0.1, no URL page loads.'New Tab' only. Revert back and all is OK

    I updated from Firefox 6.0.2 to 7.0.1. When I started Firefox the home page did not load nor did it show in the URL area. I manually entered a URL and not thing happened. The tab only shows 'New Tab' When I revert back to 6.0.2 everything is OK. I am on an older iMAC (later part of 2007) running OSx 10.7.1

    hello,
    Please try this: Exit Firefox by clicking the X button or by clicking '''File''' > '''Exit'''. Wait for a few seconds to make sure that FF has fully exited. Start FF again. I've had this happen to me. I am not sure but it seems that FF sometimes starts in offline mode though the '''Work Offline''' option is unselected. Toggling the '''Work Offline''' option doesn't make any difference but restarting Firefox does.
    Hope this helps.

  • Reverting back to old layout - role comparsion   RSUSR050

    Hi Folks,
    We have upgraded to ECC 6.0 and BW BI 7.0  . The SUIM transaction for role
    comparison (program RSUSR050) has a new layout . compares the objects
    in downward display rather than the old 2 column display.  Is there a way to
    revert back to old display layout ? - much easier to compare .

    Hi Dan,
    if you have still an old system, you could take the old coding (also the includes SR050E10 and SR050F10) and copy it to  a z-report of your own to get the old look again.
    Nevertheless it is planned to deliver an improved design for the resultlist to make the comparison easier. But........   it is not clear until now, how long the realization will take.....

  • Trouble saving a pdf from In Design with Illustrator files linked.

    I have trouble saving a pdf from In Design. Most of the files i've linked are Illustrator files with size up to 70mb.
    I am getting out of memory message   The In Design file isn't that big - about 9mb.
    HELP!!!!!!

    It did not help to close and reopen it.
    Not sure what you mean with exporting in chunks but if you mean exporting page for page , so it didn't work either.
    I think that i'll try to reduce the size of Illustrator files , but I 'm not sure what will be the optimum size for that In Design won't crush again.
    Or maybe i should make the presentation in illustrator instead? It take some time to save pdf from illustrator when the original file is about 90mb, but still it works.

  • HT4859 I have 2 phones saved on iCloud, one is old phone and other is new. How do I restore my old phone data from iCloud to my new one?

    I have 2 phones saved on iCloud storage, one is old phone and other is my new one. How do I restore my old phone data from iCloud storage to my new one?
    It shows like 4.3GB is stored on my old and 105.9MB on my new. I want to restore the 4.3 to my new, how do I do that please?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You will need to restore your phone and when prompted use the backup that you made yesterday.
    Before you do so, you may wish to change your wife's iCloud login details, otherwise you may find that you then overwrite her data. She should have her own iCloud account to avoid this.

  • Have your Illustrator and Photoshop images stopped saving as PDF? Help!

    I have CS5. For the past 2 weeks, when I save an Illustrator or Photoshop design as a PDF, it does not create a pdf of the image. It creates a PDF with this message:

  • File has reverted back to old version

    Hi,
    I opened up an excel spreadsheet and somehow it has reverted back to the original old version that I first made in 2012, I have no idea why it did this.
    Normally this wouldn't be a problem as I have saved it multiple times and I back up my mac regularly using time machine, but for some reason all of the versions of this in time machine have saved as this old original from 2012?! I read and edit this spreadsheet at least 2 times a week and have now lost 2 years worth of updates, has anyone had this happen to them before or managed to retrieve any information?
    Thanks for any help!

    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out and sign back in
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

  • Is it safe to assume that once you've used a backup of an old phone to restore a new one that you can delete the old backup?  I am running out of "cloud" space and want to free up space

    I purchased an additional 20gb of storage and I am getting a message that I am out of space on the cloud to backup my Iphone or my iPad.  When I checked my settings it seems like it's because my old iPhone backup is still being stored.  Since I used my old lphone4 backup to load my new iPhone5s would it be safe to say that I can delete that backup now since all the info that was on that phone has been transferred to my iPhone5s.  This way I can free up storage in my icloud (instead of buying additional storage?)

    Hi Mcchen425,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    As a precaution, I would suggest backing up your iPhone to your computer via iTunes as well as iCloud.  Then you can delete one of your two backups.  The article below will explain all of your options for deleting data or backups from your iCloud storage.

  • Would like to move iPod touch files to my new Windows 8 computer -- but can not see hidden files

    Would like to move iPod touch files to my new Windows 8 computer -- read on how to do this, but this involves being able to see the hidden fiels -- but can not see hidden files...any suggestions. Would like to transfer these files from iPod Touch to new laptop without software -- is that possible -- if not can anyone recommend a good free software to use?

    There is no way to do so without software. I recently had a similiar task and was suggested to use iExplorer. It worked like a charm. 
    Refer to this page for iExplorer
    Here is the page I was helped with on this task for reference: Export Songs
    Hope this helps!
