Palettes, toolbar, and control panel don't work in CS3?

I can't select pages from the "Pages Palette" or add or delete pages from the same palette. All of the palettes are having similar issues (i.e. Pages, Info, Layers, Links, Stroke, Swatches, Object Styles, Color, Effects, Gradient, Character Character Styles, Paragraph, Paragraph Styles, etc.) They are just unusable.  Most of the toolbar work except for the selection tool which I can only activate by pressing (V). The control panel seems to be having the same issue. I've tried reinstalling and repairing the install on the entire CS3 package. I've tried reinstalling and repairing the install on just InDesign. Photoshop CS3, Acrobat, and Illustrator work fine....not sure about Dreamweaver, Flash, and the others.I've downloaded and installed all available updates for CS3 from Adobe's site.
Any thoughts?
Running on:

Service Pack 2
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00Hz

  • Notifications and control panel do not work on either the app screen or home screen

    On my home screen and in apps, I can not swipe up or down to release the notifications or control panel. It has worked earlier today, however not any more.
    I can, however, access them in the lock screen, andin settings, they are allows to open in apps. It should always allow me to access them in the home screen though, so I do not know what has happened.
    What do I have to do to access the control panel in the home screen, and why is it like this?

    Do you have a screen protector or case that would interfere with swiping?
    If so remove them as a test.
    Otherwise:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • X230t and Windows 8 - tablet rotate and control buttons don't work

    I am the proud owner of a new x230 tablet and I couldn't resist the tempation to load up Windows 8 on it.  Overall I have found the operating system to work fairly well on the system as installed "out of the box"; however, I have noticed that when the computer is put in tablet mode the screen doesn't rotate, even if the rotate hardware button is pressed.  Has anyone else encountered this and if so is there a solution other then waiting for the official release of the operating system and windows 8 certified drivers.
    Thanks

    This is for win7 but should also work in win8 because it is a simple configuration thing:

  • Accordion Panels and List Menu don't work if I place html files in subfolders

    Hi all,
    Switched from Dreamweaver to Muse and I have very limited knowledge of code.
    Not an IT expert and not a web developer this is just for my own site.
    I have sub-folders in my site. All html files are inside sub-folders except index.
    ie contact.html or products.html I move them manually from root to the subfolder, using the easy interface of Dreamweaver. I call the subfolder "en"
    so I can have pages such as mysite.com/en/contact.html
    In the subfolder I copy and paste from  root the css, images and script folders,
    keeping the original css/images/scripts as well, in the root, so index.html is not affected.
    and same time the look of the html pages inside the subfolders does not change.
    BUT
    list menus and accordion panels don't work. I click and there is no movement
    How can I solve this ? I know Muse does not allow the creation of subfolders,
    everything is uploaded in the root.
    When in Dreamweaver I had placed 50 pages in subfolders and I was indexing them in google and bing.
    Now can't again put 50 pages in root and can't remove URLs and make new indexing for all these pages
    Any help ? many thanks for any assistance.

  • My back/forward buttons don't work - have done 'reset toolbars and controls', but they still don't work

    When I downloaded the latest version I got a new screen with the orange Firefox tab at the top. That was fine, I could find what I wanted, but back/forward buttons didn't work. I checked the help section and went right through the suggestions down to 'reset toolbars and controls' - this did reset and I lost the orange box - that doesn't matter, but the back/forward buttons still don't work.

    Do you have more than one tab open? If you didn't go to another site in a single tab, then yes, the buttons will be greyed out. If you went somewhere in another tab, then those sites should be accessible by right clicking either button.

  • Since upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite Mail, Spotlight,Mission Control and App-Store don´t work correctly. Is it possible to return to Mavericks?

    Since upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite Mail, Spotlight, Mission Control and App-Store don´t work correctly. Is it possible to return to Mavericks?

    If you have an external drive with an OS X Time Machine backup, then do restore of your last backup. If you have an external drive  with a bootable clone of your previous system, you can boot to that clone and re-clone the OS X on your external drive back to your Mac's internal drive.
    If you do not have either of these available, then the reverting/restoring process becomes much more complicated and involves purchasing an external drive and backing up your current system to that drive, then erasing, reformatting your hard drive and now your only options to installng an OS X version is doing a clean install of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, then upgrading, again, to either OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion. OS X 10.9 Mavericks is no longer available for download and Apple has not made OS X 10.9 Mavericks available in any other form to be able to redownload and install.
    Maybe it would be better to explain in detail your issues with Yosemite to see if any of us here can help you with your difficulties.
    I am not running or using Yosemite, so I cannot help you with your Yosemite issues,
    There are others here who can help you with Yosemite.
    Good Luck.

  • My Microsoft Intellimouse back and forward buttons don't work in Firefox, but they do in IE and in Windows Explorer. It used to work, now it just stopped. Why and how can I fix this?

    Forward and back buttons don't work in Firefox but do everywhere else.

    Make sure that you set those buttons to the default action in your mouse driver software (Control Panel > Mouse or specific Intellimouse driver software).

  • Shortcuts of the 'Character Panel' don't work correctly!!

    Hi !
    I found that those shortcuts of the 'Character Panel' don't work correctly in Photoshop CC.
    For example :
    Press [cmd(ctrl)+ shift + >]
    →Increse or decrease the font-size with a step of 33.74px every time I press the shortcut.
    Previous version of Photoshop just changes the font-size with a step of 2px.
    The same problem occurs while using the shortcuts to control tracking or leading etc... Obviously the 'step' is not correctly.This could be a critical problem for me.
    Aonther problem is if you try to set the font-size to 100,it will say this 'A value between 0.01 pixel and 1296.00 Pixels is required.'
    All things goes crazy.. Anyone facing the same problem?

    Between this and the "more than 6 lines of text screws up a Photoshop PDF" bug, CS6 is practiaclly usless for any project using type.

  • Displaying PDF within Browser, but disabling Toolbars and Navigation Panel

    I am currently working on the site for the University of Oregon Undergraduate Council, and my boss wishes me to disable the Toolbars and Navigation Panel that display when users open a PDF, as she finds them "distracting". Although I think this is a bad idea, is there a way to input code which would automatically hide or disable the use of Toolbars within a browser window? I know that users can disable these themselves via F8 and the like, but if anyone knows a way to disable (or more preferably, automatically hide) these without work on the part of the user, that would be most appreciated.

  • My screen brightness control buttons don't work windows 8

    my screen brightness control buttons don't work?
    the light in the mute button is always on when NOT on mute?
    Have set up Win8 3 TIMES but get always same bug agan 
    Hope someone can help 

    Hello smarisig. I understand you are not able to control screen brightness from the keyboard on Windows 8. By chance, did you upgrade to Windows 8 from Windows 7? I have located an online forum that contains troubleshooting on this issue: http://thedailybuggle.com/forum/unable-control-screen-brightness-windows-8-a-200.html
    The person who posted the issue on this forum had upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8, and then this issue occurred. That is the reason I asked if this Windows 8 was upgraded. Regardless, follow the troubleshooting presented and it could resolve the issue for you. If not, let me know and I will continue to research the issue in the meantime. I'm only here to help!

  • Every time I plug in my headphones into my Macbook Pro, my volume control buttons don't work.

    Every time I plug in my headphones into my Macbook Pro, my volume control buttons don't work. Even after I unplug my headphones they don't work, they get stuck on the level of volume it was at when I plugged in the headphones. I can control the volume if I go to system preferences and do it that way, but that is such a pain. Also, in order to get the buttons to work again I have to completely restart my computer which is also a pain! What should I do, or can do, to fix the problem?
