Problem resizing textbox Illustrator CS

Hi to everybody! I don't speak english very well..I'm sorry! I try to write something! I have a problem with Illustrator CS. It worked very well until few days ago. The problem is I can't resize the textbox now, I dont' have the arrow to do this! But If I enter as Administrator of the pc all works well as few days ago. I've tried to do a new installation of the program, I tried to uninstall and to do a new installation again...but the problem does'nt disappear. Any idea?Thank in advance. Sara

Is it that you no longer have the "arrow" (selection tool) or that you no longer have the bounding box?
If the latter, read

If the former, trying trashing prefs (

  • Problem resizing objects

    I really think I may have lost it on this one. I am having
    problems resizing any object inside of illustrator. Normally when i
    use my selection tool, There is a box around the whole object that
    I can click and drag to resize. It's not there, and consequently, I
    can resize anything without going to
    Object>Transform> Scale... and that's just too much.
    Is there a setting I somehow messed with that did this? I am
    completely lost. I dont even have a clue what is goin on anymore.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    You may have hit CTRL+SHIFT+B which hides the bounding box
    around objects. so hit CTRL+SHIFT+B again to see if that fixes the
    issue. You can also find it view/ under "Show
    Rulers"
    Sorry Dreamweaverites for replying to an Illustrator question
    in a Dreamweaver forum.
    I had to help a brother out. You Know,

  • Problem resizing Viewport with WebDeveloper in WinXP and Vista

    I'm having a problem resizing the Viewport with WebDeveloper running in FF10 & FF11 on my WinXP and Vista machines. Quite simply, I'm trying to resize the Viewport to 320x420pixels (to represent an iPhone) but can't get it to go below 510px.
    There's no problem in FF1 on Win7. I have contacted Chris Pederick, the developer of WebDeveloper, and he says his code is tha same in all cases, and pretty basic JS. So possibly the fault lies in the browser. I've not noticed this problem in earlier versions of FF (i.e around 3.5)

    Try to hide all toolbars or open a second window and hide them there to see if that allows to make the window smaller.

  • Problems printing from illustrator to Canon printer

    I have problems with printing from Illustrator CS4 to a Canon printer i-Sensys MF8050 (printing
    from Illustrator to a Epson stylus Photo R2400 is no problem).
    Printing from Photoshop to the Canon printer is also no problem. I
    refreshed the preferences (did not help).
    Operating System: Mac OS X (v10.6)
    Printer driver version: 3.3
    Usb connection
    Canon believes it must be a problem with the illustrator program; it sends the wrong signs to
    the printer.
    After sending print to printer the printer reports that the A4 tray is empty, but is is still full.
    What is going wrong, who can help me out?

    Thanx Mike,
    Reinstalled the printer softwear but it didn't resolve the problem.
    But your suggestion to print illustrator pdf file in Acrobat is good solution for the moment.
    I think something is wrong with Illustrator, because starting up the printing module is also taking a long time.
    Did download the latest up date from illustrator to day, but that also didn't resolve the problem.
    And you are right.... 3.3 is the fax driver

  • Problema al abrir Illustrator CC mac

    Hola a todos! estoy teniendo un problema al abrir Illustrator CC desde el mac. Ayer todo funcionaba correctamente, cerre programas, apague y listo. Hoy de pronto, cuando he ido a abrir illustrator, no llega ni a arrancar. El resto de programas funcionan perfectamente.
    Al abrir, muestra la ventana de inicializando con el logo (pero sin que procese nada en esa pantallita, como ocurre normalmente. Aparece estática) y después desaparece sin que haya abierto el programa ni nada. De hecho tengo que forzar la salida del programa y genera el tipico informe de error.
    En este informe aparecen entre otras muchas cosas, este mensaje:
    Process:         AdobeCrashDaemon [412]
    Path:            /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC/Adobe Photoshop CC.app/Contents/Frameworks/AdobeCrashReporter.framework/Required/AdobeCrashDaemon.app/Con tents/MacOS/AdobeCrashDaemon
    Architecture:    x86_64
    UID:             501
    Estoy trabajando con versión 10.7.5 de mac osx. Pero este no debería ser el problema, ya que soporta cc...
    Alguien ha tenido este mismo problema o sabe como solucionarlo?
    Un saludo y
    Muchas gracias!

    Extraño que hable de Photoshop en la ruta y no de Illustrator,..
    Prueba a abrir otro programa y en el menu de Ayuda sal o cierra la sesión (Sign off) te avisará que va a desactivar una serie de programas instalados de CC. Comprueba que incluye a Ai.
    Acepta y cierra ese programa.
    Desinstala entonces Ai (Illustrator CC). (Desde Aplicaciones>Desinstalar Illustrator CC)
    Vacia la papelera y reinicia el Mac (no es imprescindible)
    Entra de nuevo en el panel de Creative Cloud con tu Adobe ID y reinstala Ai, mira antes en el icono en la esquina sup. dcha. Opciones de donde instala (y el idioma) para comprobarlo.
    Prueba ahora a iniciar Ai.
    (Te pedirá entrar en sesión o registrarte ya que habías dejado desactivadas las aplicaciones CC)
    Confirma por favor si funciona, y marca entonces tu pregunta como solucionada. Gracias.

  • Problem Resizing Regions

    I'm having a problem resizing regions.
    On some regions, I can make the region shorter, but I cannot lengthen it.
    On other regions, I can make the region longer, but there is not silence in the added length - instead, the first notes of the region repeat (this happens using the little ruler symbol, not the the little circular arrow symbol)
    Does it make any difference if the region is a copied region? Can you only lengthen original regions and not copied regions? I tried changing the resolution as per a prior post about this problem and that did not help.
    Thanks for your suggestions.

    On some regions, I can make the region shorter, but I cannot lengthen it.
    you can not make an audio ("real") region longer then it's total length.
    On other regions, I can make the region longer, {but} the first notes of the region repeat (this happens using the little ruler symbol
    by "ruler" do you mean the Right bracket? something like <]>
    what type of region?

  • Bounding box and selection tool problems (CS5.5 Illustrator OSX)

    When I select objects by dragging arrow tool (i.e. logos, headlines, etc.) I often have a problem that other objects are also selected (images, things that are not visible or not actually there) and I can't unselect them easily to get just my selection of objects and be able to resize them by dragging corners. It's like you have to scale everything including the weird extra invisible items across the page somewhere. Sometimes if it's an image that gets selected in addition I can click on and off it to get just my selected objects. And then sometimes the bounding box does not work at all and I can't resize my selected objects by dragging the corners (scale tool works though). Showing and hiding bounding box from drop down menu does nothing. This seems random but happens all the time. It also happened in CS5 on a different Mac computer. Anybody run into this? I know other designers in the office have experienced this. Is there a weird selection preference I need to set? Should I try resetting preferences? Could it be Ram issues? (Sometimes have Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign open all at once)
    I've just been dealing with it up to this point but I am really ready for a fix for this issue. It seems buggy.

  • Macbook Air 11" i7 corrupt files problem with Adobe Illustrator CS4

    Hi
    this problem may not be entirely related but maybe someone could help anyways or knows how I can proceed...
    I'm running Illustrator CS4 on a Macbook Air 11" (latest 2011 model, with i7, 4GB, 128SSD), and lately some files are getting corrupted. specifically, adobe illusrator CS4 files with weeks of work. interestingly, the time machine backups are also getting corrupted.
    its like I'm working on a file for a few days, backing up with time machine as well
    closes the file, after a few days returns to it… (normal behavior)
    then when i try to get back to the file then sometimes it says "Cant open the illustration, could not complete the operation" and opens a blank canvas.
    restoring the file via time machine also gives the same error (its like all versions get corrupted simultaneously), even 4-5 versions backwards, even though they worked before when the file worked
    it happened quite a few times, ruining weeks of work.
    I tried the following:
    reinstalling CS4 - didn't work
    Opening the files on CS5 - still don't open
    doing the file recovery thing and then opening it in a notepad - didn't work at all
    using Time machine - the files are still corrupt
    it only happenes with AI files, not photoshop files, for example.
    I thought maybe it has anything to do with SSD? since my previous macbook pro (15", 2007) never did these errors…
    please help
    Eido

    If at all, this would be I/O performance and bandwidth issues with Time Machine, but I don't think that's the problem. More to the point I think that it's a case of Preview opening the files to genereate thumbnails and icons and something going wrong there. I'd look up some guides on how to edit the relevant plist and conf files to exclude your AIs or turn off the behavior to generate these previews globally. This may help hugely...

  • Problem resizing UI text in Photoshop CC

    I cannot resize UI fonts in Photoshop CC (icons, menu headings etc) - or rather I succeeded in resizing them once, moving from tiny to medium, and since then cannot change. I am using a 27 inch iMac running Windows 8.1. Altering settings in Windows does not solve the problem. Nor does forcing Photoshop to rebuild the preferences file under the roaming directory
    Menu subheads appear smaller than the main navigation
    Has anyone else experienced this bug? There seem to be many issues surrounding Photoshop CC UI display
    UPDATE
    A second resizing has now occurred, back to tiny. Subheads in menus remain unchanged - now significantly bigger than the Menu heads

    Thank you for replying
    I did restart, yes, many many times. And the change to a much larger font (and back again) happened without warning in the midst of these restarts. Almost certainly there is a  bug of some kind because the software behavior was not predictable.
    I tried the experimental setting after reading your message and found that it moved me back and forth between the medium and tiny fonts already seen (at least I assume that is what they were - one is too big the other too small). It is not a sophisticated tool. I need something between the two. Is there a way of setting it in some intermediate scale (call it 'small'), or is there no solution within Photoshop?
    I did not have this problem on my old iMac. The only change between the two machines is that the new one is retina display.

  • Problem with textboxes in Flash CS5

    Hi, I am currently a Flash CS4 user and am trying Flash CS5 currently to see if it is worth it to pay for the upgrade. I currently have a problem with the use of textboxes in CS5 comparing with the previous version. When I try to change the texts of a text box using the following command in actionscript:
    showlmytext.text = "My string: " +String(somevariable);
    I would get weird misaligned text outputted in my textbox, which exact same code did not cause this problem on Flash CS4.
    Can somebody please tell me what is the problem and how can I fix it?
    Thanks

    Hi Mario,
    I hope you are well. My name is Sandi Langlotz.
    At my job at greenidea.com, here in SF; I am having difficulty with using Hebrew in the trial download of CS5 Flash. Russ Mumford my boss has also contacted you regarding our problem.
    Flash has a new TLF (Text Layout Format tool).  My difficulty has to do with text boxes that are formatted for Right to Left text, with Hebrew selected as the Locale. We are pasting from Microsoft Word.
    I hope  that you may have a suggestion, a referral  or a possible work around for me to try.
    I have tried Adobe Customer Service several times to no avail.
    Problem 1.
    The first sentence below, (in blue) is correct format for Hebrew. Hebrew reads from R to Left.
    When I paste the Hebrew text into the Flash animation, one of two things can happen;
    the punctuation is cut off of the left side completely; or it is pasted in to the Right side of the Text box, (at the wrong end of the sentence). 
    I have tried to click the cursor into the left in order to insert the punctuation mark; this works sometimes but often I am unable to click in to manually correct the problem. I don't understand why it is cutting it off, or why I am sometimes unable to click into the left side and insert the punctuation.
    Problem 2
    In the second paste (the 2nd bold sentence),  .CSO on the left side of the sentence is correct, as is the rest of the sentence.
    When I paste the text  into Flash from Word, Flash puts it in as reversed order. the word CSO. has the punctuation switched to the right (CSO.)  Flash reverses the order of the other characters in the sentence also (like in the 2nd black sentence).

    Adobe says it supports Right to Left text, but I can find no info on these two buggy problems. Do you have any idea what is wrong?
    Thank you ahead of time for any info or referrals you may suggest.

  • I'm having problems (1)selecting onscreen text, (2) having problems resizing menu boxes and selecting menues with the cursor. I'm not able to select menus and move them. I'm not sure how to correct this.

    I'm having problems (1) selecting onscreen text, (2) resizing menu boxes and selecting menues with the cursor. I'm not able to select menus and move them. I'm not sure how to correct this.

    1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
    thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
    which will correct the problem...

    2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
    minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
    accurate.
    3) This?
    iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
    point
    4) Restore the iPod
    5) Try these...

    I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
    posted for each one.

    I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again
