Please help. New CS 4 error: can't move the objects. the requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area.

I know this is not a "new" error message, but I have never gotten it on any previous version of Illustrator. I just upgraded to CS 4 and now get it on virtually every file when I try to nudge an object in any direction. Not that it should matter, but these are files that were created in earlier versions of Illustrator and I never had this problem. I have followed instructions from similar posts to no avail. I have zoomed way out to the edge of the art board: there are no hidden layers, objects, or guidelines, no lingering points from erased guidelines, or objects of any sort anywhere near the edge of the art board (which, I know, is enormous compared to the size of my working 11 x 17 document.)
What am I missing?
Also, on occasion, when I CAN nudge an object (usually a JPG or PDF image that I placed in the document), the image just disappears. I think it is still "there" though I cannot see it. Any suggestions?

I am nudging it by selecting the object and hitting the up, down, or side arrows. Dragging with the mouse works fine, but does not give me the precision I'm looking for. Dragging with the mouse also avoids the "disappearing PDF/JPG" problem.
I don't know what plug-ins I have. Possibly none.
I don't use clipping masks. But I did select one object (and then ultimately selected all objects) and went to clipping mask, the "release" function was not active, so I am assuming there are no clipping masks in the document.
I did attempt to select stray points, nada.
I have not tried getting rid of the settings folder. Not sure how to do that?
Also not sure how to take a screen shot to show you. I can tell you that there is only one layer and it is a very simple document with just a JPG image, a few objects and some text.
Sorry! I hope this helps you help me, I normally just use a few simple tools to produce some basic documents.

I am trying to copy a document and I keep getting the error "Can't paste the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area."

I am trying to make duplicate documents with minor adjustments to each and when I try to copy the artwork from one document and paste it into the new document I keep getting the error "Can't paste the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area." Both documents are exactly the same size, res, color format etc. I even tried to drag and drop and get the same error message. Anyone know what I can do to resolve this issue?

Try scaling the view size down to 6% or so and then do a Select All. See if there are objects off the artboard which may be causing this error. Most often you will see this if there were guides dragged from a ruler which were selected by dragging the white arrow and then deleted. This leaves the anchor points at the edge of the work area.

Error: requested transformation would make some objects too large

working in Illustrator CS2, and am getting the error "Can't move the objects - The requested transformation would make some objects too large." From reading another post (that I am unable to find to reply to) I gather this may have to do with some guides. I have unlocked all guides through View Menu. Interestingly, according to help I should have hte selection to "view" guides. I don't find it. My problem is, i can find the guides to either delete or convert to an object to see if this will alllow me to move the objects. it is a 1 layer artwork, with multiple groups (too many too count),and multiple paths under each group (again, too many too count). This artwrok is a map printed to .pdf from SMT Kingdom. Kingdom is not very powerful, and I often annotate and edit maps in Illustrator; I frequetnly get this error when I have a map with contours on it.
Any ideas?

Because of the nature of my map, I do tend to have "landgrid" and other type of data that "extend" way beyond my actual image. for example, print to 8.5 x 11, and i might have a river that is part of my landgrid, that extend beyond the page size. The software from which I am printing does not "clip" this river. I have many times attempted to select and delete all this extraneous stuff, to alleviate my problem with "make some object too large", but no luck. I can assure you I don't have an object WAY off the page...i have zoomed out to the moon.

Can't scale the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects too small to use.

How does one remedy this Adobe error message? "Can't scale the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects too small to use." This one always gets me. I'll spend more time trying to find the object in question. This has happened in almost al versions, but this time it's CS5.

Hmm, possible solution would be to select your object(s), scale them to 90%, and then hit Cmd+D or Control+D to repeat the transformation. I read that sometimes if you scale down too much and too fast it can cause this message.
Hope this works for you!

Can't save the illustration. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely of

I wan't to save an AI file as an EPS. I get a message; Can't save the illustration. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area. I already did the ctrl+A but there is nothing outside my drawing area! It is a quit big file 2GB, but I don't think that this should be a problem! I really hope that somebody can help me?!?

It does, blablabla.
Thank you for sharing.

How to resolve this error - "Cannot save the illustration The requested transformation would make.."

Hello Adobe Community,
I am trying to organize some album artwork within a pre-designed template and I keep getting this error when trying to save the file in the eps file format:
Cannot save the illustration The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area.
All the art is within the bleed lines. The only transformation I did was rotating one of the pieces 180 degrees. I'm not exactly sure what it is referring to when illustrator says objects are going to completely fall off the drawing area.
Your insights would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Chris

Did you use Guides at all? From the View menu, choose Guides>Clear Guides. Then zoom way out and do a Select All and see if there any stray points near the borders of the artboard. Direct select them and delete. Then try your transformation.

I upgraded to 20gb iCloud but it isn't enough to back up. I get constant error messages saying there is no backup space and I've not been able to use the upgrade. Apple promised to refund then didn't. Please help is there anyway I can use this space?

Please see the subject line thanks

If you were told they would refund the price for the iCloud storage - Contact AppleCare and ask to speak with a senior advisor. Have the case number for the promised refund available.
If you are trying to update your device, but you don't have sufficient space to download and install the update, you need to delete content from your device. Buying storage in iCloud does not add space to the device which is what you need.
You can always update using a computer with iTunes installed - this method is faster, and will allow you to make a backup on the local computer (Local backups restore faster than iCloud backups).

Please help me with this error: "Apple application support was not found... Error 2"

Can anyone please help me with this error: "Apple application support was not found... Error 2"
I've followed the instructions by removing all Apple files from my laptop, but when I reinstall the iTunes software it still comes up with this message:
"Apple application support is required to run iTunesHelper. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2"
Thank you

iTunes "Apple Application Support is required... Error 2" and possible fix.
I know this is a bit late but I came accross this thread trying to resolve this same problem and came up with a solution that worked for me, so thought I would share it here too. I hope it helps someone else.
I just resolved this on Win Vista (should apply equally for Win7 too). Please uninstall iTunes before proceeding though. I'll walk you through the process I followed, if you like you can jump straight to the Solution section.
Problems:
The initial error during the installation of iTunes was:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken='1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorarchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x8007054F
The error (after installing iTunes) when trying to run iTunes was:
Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again. Error 2 (Windows error 2).
After trying various fixes around the forums I came across this MSKB article, which relates to the first installation error:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2688946
This lead me to trying to install MS Visual C++ but I received the following error trying to install that:
Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly ‘Microsoft.VC80.ATL,type=”win32”,version=”8.0.50727.762”,publicKeyToken=”1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b”,processorArchitecture=”amd64”’. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070BC9. Assembly interface: IassemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, component: {837BF1EB-D770-94EB-A01F-C8B3B9A1E18E}
Note: The installation of VC++ rolls back when it fails.
Solution:
Through this error I found this MSKB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946414
The Automated MS "Fix It" msi package didn’t work.
Note: Please backup your registry first (see the above MSKB article for instructions).
I opened the registry and (as instructed in the MSKB article) deleted the following keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMPONENTS\
PendingXmlIdentifier
NextQueueEntryIndex
AdvancedInstallersNeedResolving
Reboot and reinstall iTunes.

This is not Apple we are all users here
You will need to obtain the original Apple id ,that is the only way to unlock it
Speak to the original owner .If you cannot it is likely the iPhone was stolen and the activation lock is preventing use by a third party that is you
