Problem with .dwg or dxf opening in AI

I have been sent several CAD files from which I only need the actual Isometric drawing and some of the blocks of text.  However the entire file comes in, apparently as layers.  Other Drawings are on top of the large one that I need.  I have used CAD in years past and had no problem isolating what I needed-for marketing purposes rather than architectural.  I am trying to get the part that I need into AI so I can place it in a file in InDesign 4.  Can anyone tell me how to do this.  I am attaching the file a it opened in AI

Ok this was a oversight by the person send ing you or preparing the file. What they did was to include all the sheets which are usuallly save with the CAD files so they can go back to older version and often mix revision with new specs.
not only will it be flatten it will also not have anything but the current info.
The CAD operators hate to do this and wil do almost anything not to do it even though it is easy for them to do.

    i had problem with my apps,they open for a while and closes with in seconds i cant acess them and i had this with all apss,expect apple apps

    Do you have a lot of apps? Did you use a lot of apps recently? If so, many of them may still be resident in memory even if you aren't currently using them. Double-tap the home key and you should see the app tray with a list of most recently used programs. Press and hold the icons in the tray and remove the ones you don't use often to remove them from memory. Powering off and then back on might also help.
    My wife's iPod does that sometimes, and it's usually because we run out of memory due to apps remaining in memory even when not used. The suggestion above is how we normally fix the problems.

  • This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with my email address Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem"

    I keep getting this message over and over and over.
    This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with <my email address>
    Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem"
    I go to IC Preferences but there is nothing I can fix there that is relative.
    My outbox is no longer working in MAIL so I cannot email out. I have to use my wife's MBP to send emails.
    I can get emails. I didn't change anything in m,ail preferences, so what is Apple doing to me?

    I also have had this problem and see no resolution - signed out of my account and signed in again, did not get any resolution to the problem. done this twice. Is Apple addressing this? I thought that 10.10.1 would resolve this but found to my dismay that there has been no resolution. Each time I log out of iCloud and then sign in again, there is a time lag before all my files in iCloud become accessible so have stopped trying this remedy. I also have issues with iTunes where am asked for my password 4 times before I can log in. Would like to know if there is anything in the pipeline to remedy/rectify this problem. Issues with bad internet connectivity have improved but are still there. Wish Apple would spend some more time in testing and resolving issues before releasing new software. 

  • This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with "your Apple ID", Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem.

    I am using Yosemite on (iMac 21.5 inch mid 2011).
    My question is:- Periodically when closing down Safari and only the application Safari i get the message:-
    This Mac can’t connect to iCloud because of a problem with “my Apple ID”, Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem.
    I don't understand this because there is no problem with "my Apple ID" and if there is what should I do when opening iCloud preferences to fix the problem.
    Would appreciate some positive answer to stop this message from appearing and to resolve this problem.
    Cheers Bruce.

    I do not use the Safari browser, and I also get this error message. I also have not updated to Yosemite.  I am able to log into iCloud using my Apple ID and password, so I know that there is no issue with my login credentials.  However, so far I have not been able to determine what is causing this message.

  • Possible problems with Check out and Open Component and delayed publishing

    Hi,
    I've experienced some seemingly wrong behaviors of the checkout and open component and also with the delayed publishing feature, I've listed it down :
    1) The all important one:
    We know we've delayed publishing features for content, if we set the Release Date metadata at a future date, the content will not be released immediately, but do we have a delayed publishing features for a website page. Through manage website the user can add / delete a page(section), may do include or exclude from navigation etc.. but can they set a future date when a particular page can be included in or excluded from navigation? This should be a standard feature for a WCM solution and I hope there is some solution for sure.
    2) Can we set a datefield with a calendar feature as a page custom (section) property?
    3) Again the issue with checkout and open component, only the user with admin privilege seems to be able to change the content, normal contributors cannot, cause every time is tries to check in with the old author name, so the user has to have admin privilege to assign a different doc author's name. No trace also who is making the changes.
    4) Also facing a lot of problems while trying to implement when we use this checkout and open component. As we cannot check who is making the change there is to way to set us a step for self review, also user can only approve or reject but cannot edit the doc before passing it to the next step, if the step user is created using tokens then only checking out of the doc takes it pass the step user, but everything is working perfect with contributor data file. No problem whatsoever. Even if we use manual check out and then check in (i mean without using checkout and open component) this is working fine. But the main problem with non-technical users will be they would not like the content server portal at all and they would always prefer ms word over anything else. They would directly like to double-click on the website page, the word doc will pop up and they would make change and save.
    Issue 1 and 4 are killer issues for us, I need your help to find a solution. I have few more issues that i will post later.

    Hey Shotdawq,
    I was a bit low on bandwidth, so could not visit the forum any sooner.DIS is dynamic integration studio, it works on the webdav protocol.
    you will need to install DIS on the client machines. The POC that i did was integration of SiteStudio with CheckOutAndOpenInNative.
    I am also planning to referenc this functionality from WebSphere, what i have in my mind is to copy the java script from my sitestudio page and paste
    it in the JSP, and then using the CIS or RIDC will execute the serverices. At present i am stuck in some other work, If i get this thing working i will
    update you. In the meanwhile if you have some question for me, feel free to throw them.
    cheers,

  • Problem with page submit and opening a popup.

    Hello All,
    Apex 3.1.2
    I have a button that submits a page and opens a pop-up. I'm new to javascript so I'm really hacking my way through this, so syntax tips are very useful :)
    I'm using the code below on the button, my popup opens but then my main page seems to refresh and immediately covers up the popup. How do I get the popup to stay in front of the main page? Is there a problem with my main page submit?
    Here's my URL target for the button...
    javascript:doSubmit('ADD_TO_GROUP');javascript:popUp2('f?p=&APP_ID.:2:&SESSION.::::P2_OPPORTUNITY_NUMBER: &P6_OPPORTUNITY_NUMBER.');
    Thanks Much!
    p.s. ADD_TO_GROUP is my button name, am I using that correctly in doSubmit? It seems like I can put anything there and I still get the same behavior.

    --> Are your on/after submit processes conditional?
    For the javascript, you could also try to put the javascript code into an html region of your page, with condition set to a REQUEST value, or the value of an item that you set on submit.It looks like what's happening is the page is branching back to itself and that's why my the popup is pushed to the background. I created a conditon on the branch that said request != "ADD_TO_GROUP" (my button request). This kept the focus on my popup but gave me the error that the page had no branch!
    How do I get my main page to submit and the popup to appear IN FRONT of the main page?
    Thanks!

  • Having a problem with a tab automatically opening

    I probably have some sort of spyware, but what it is doing is I will be looking at a website, and Firefox will spontaneously open up a new tab with a website that says "News Reports 1", that has top news stories on it. When I close the tab, a pop up message ask me if I am sure I want to navigate away from the page. After a while, Firefox will just quit responding. I have Malwarebytes, Ad-aware and a virus protection program. Also have run Spy-Bot as well. None of these programs are finding anything and are suggestion that I am "all clear". Anyone have any suggestions on a good free spyware program? or any reason it only seems to be affecting my Firefox? Thanks!

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.<br />
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.<br />
    Be sure to backup your profile data if you choose to remove your personal data while uninstalling
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
    Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • Is anyone having problems with FB app not opening and calendar appts disappearing after update

    Since I did the most recent update yesterday, the FBI app won't open.  Also, all my reminders have disappeared.  All still work on iPhone, just not on pad.
    Thanks in advance!

    My problems with the Healt App are all over the map. The information on Withings Health Mate is totally accurate, and updates immediately.  I have their scale (since 2011) and wireless blood pressure monitor. Also, I find the heart rate senson on the iPhone 6 to work well, every time.
    This issue for me is with Apple's Health app. I get ridiculous readings on the Dashboards. For example, it shows my daily average in steps as 170,688, and miles walked at 80. Hardly! Additionally, the Dashbord widgets will disappear/reappear for no reason. I have tried switching the priority of data sources for the steps dashboard between Withings and my iPhone 6 (because it is indicated that the top source governs the dashboard info), to no avail.
    Lastly, I don't know how to interpret the infomration on the individual dashboards. On the same line as the word "Steps" there is a number, i.e. 14,272 steps, and just under it the word "Today." However, when I switch from "Day," "Week,," "Month," and "Year," those number don't change. Below the word Today is a number (which changes all the time), and at the bottom of the widget, just above the month (October now) is the number 1,149,749. Nice.
    I would like to get the Apple Watch next year, but if the Health App cannot be fixed I may not.

  • Arrgh! Is anybody else having problems with the Adobe Acrobat open source approach to handling PDF files? I am getting as many as three crashes and full reboot per day and the delays are terribly frustrating.

    Do I have a registry problem?
    Every time I open a PDF file my local Adobe Acrobat (6.0) installation opens AND the file displays in Firefox (v. 4.0.1). When I close the PDF file it tells me other PDF files are open and asks if I'm sure I want to close Acrobat.
    The process is messy and somewhere, before too long there is a memory error that causes the whole system to crash.
    Is anybody else having this problem? Does anybody have any idea how to fix the conflict?

  • Problem with Sessions and window.open

    Hi,
    Hi everyone,
    Help Please!!!
    I am working with Sevlet session objects and HTML forms and windows. I have an HTML form for the user to supply a username and password. Once the user clicks submit I need to open another browser window that has no toolbar, no location, no status bar, etc. The user should also be able to go back to that login screen and login again and open a 2nd, 3rd, etc. instance of the application. My problem is that each application is being asigned the same sessionId. I believe it is being asigned to the main login window and thus to the other child windows it opens. Is there a way to work around this? Do I need to make the user open another browser window to login? I need to be able to let the user open multiple instances of the application with unique session ids for each.
    Any insight is GREATLY appreciated on this topic. Anything you can tell me about sessions (Java), IE, window.open would help greatly!
    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!
    MA

    To achieve this, you must introduce another level of
    abstraction to the Servlet specifications. When you
    work with JSP/Servlets you use mostly the HttpSession
    to handle user related tasks, and the aplication
    context, for things that are common to all users. But
    inside the HttpSession scope, you want to create
    containers that have 'smaller' scope and are uniquely
    identified.
    A ipothetical scenario :Let's say that you must have
    multiple connections to several databases, on each
    database user rights beeing diferrent, and you must be
    able to track user actions globaly, and eventualy
    capture a 'Close Application event' and close all db.
    connections.
    1. when the user first accesses the login frame create
    the HttpSession. In the HttpSession object, store a
    Hastable (let's call it 'ConnectionTable'). Each
    object in the Hashtable must identify uniqely a
    database connection. Now, to create unique identifiers
    ids, make the keys in the hashtable java.lang.Long
    objects, created using System.getCurrentTimeMillis().
    This guaranties there will be no possible confusion.
    From each new open window, on each request to the
    server, along with the usefull parameters, send the
    connection identifier. When proccessing the request,
    select the object from the Hastable wich corresponds
    to the ID.
    2. Now, the values in the ConnectionTable, must act as
    the containers that I mentioned in the first
    paragraph. The simplest way to do this is to have
    again a Hashtable derived class to do the job, wich
    exploses methods similar to HttpSession: setAttibute (
    Object key, Object value) and getAttibute ( Object
    key, Object value). This container may use internally
    a Hashtable to store object, and explose only the
    getAttribute and setAttribute methods for clarity. Any
    way, this is a problem of implementation. Let's call
    this class CustomSession.
    Now, a textual activity diagram:
    1 user accesses the main page, you start a new
    HttpSession; In the HttpSession object, store the
    ConnectionTable object.
    2. the user enters the userID and pwd and adatabase
    name, and a new window is opened. Let's supose the
    data entered is valid.
    3. when you process the login data, you create a new
    CustomSession object. you put in it whatever you would
    put in your HttpSession. You generate a unique
    identifier using System.CurrentTimeMillis(). Put the
    CustomSession object in the ConnectionTable, using the
    generated id as key. Send the response.
    ..... later on .....
    100. the user asks for a particular action to be
    performed - e.g. a row deletion. The page contains a
    form with text field where the user introduces the
    row number, a submit button and a hidden input with
    the ID.
    101. you process the data. Get the ID from the request
    object, get the ConnectionTable from the session, get
    the CustomSession using the ID as key, do whatever
    your logic was doing, but obtaining the objects from
    the CustomSession instead of HttpSession
    NicNic,
    Very slick idea. I think that it could work and it seems that there would be not security issues because the id that you would store on the client side is the Unique Identifier and not the actual Session Id. Do you forsee any security issues for this implementation?

  • Problem with Safari and Firefox opening some websites

    In Firefox I have recently been getting:
    THE CONNECTION IS RESET
    The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
    * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web
    Also a message in Safari:
    "Safari can’t open the page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection, which sometimes occurs when the server is busy. You might be able to open the page later."
    It is only occurring with a few sites, but occurs on the same websites in both browsers.
    I'm using an iMac, running OSX 10.4.11 and using Airport to connect to a Netgear wireless router.
    I've emptied cashes, cleaned cookies, reset browsers etc, I've run MacScan, but the problem persists.
    Having already done some on-line searches I have seen people talk about proxies, DNS and possible malware (though usually referring solutions to PC's.
    Any one know of a fix for this?

    Hi,
    Make sure your are running the latest version of Safari. From the Safari Menu Bar click: About Safari
    The version number will be displayed there. You need to be using 4.0.4 If Safari needs updating go to your Apple Menu then click Software Updates.
    Safari 4.0.4 requires the 2009-001 Security Update. Open System Preferences/Software Updates - Installed Updates. If that update is not listed go here.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/SecurityUpdate_2009_001__Tiger_PPC
    Also, open System Preferences/Network. Select the tab. Make sure none of the boxes are
    checked under: Select a proxy server to configure
    Try disconnecting the router from it's power source for 5 minutes, reconnect the router and
    restart your Mac.

  • Problems with Premier Elements 7 Opening Earlier Projects

    I have used Premier Elements 3 to create many 15-60 minute videos, most built from Photoshop Elements slide shows imported into Premier, and most with DVD output designed. After installing Version 7, I attempted to open these projects which it is supposed to do. A minority will open fine. The balance either cause the error "The project cannot be loaded - it may be damaged or contain outdated elements".
    Does anyone else have these types of problems? I have tried all of the various methods outlined in the KB, like deleting preferences, etc., removing and re-installing, booting with nothing else loaded, etc. Nothing has any impact. I have talked to Adobe support and they are clueless and just walk me through the usual install/uninstall, etc. can anyone help? I have an enormous investment in time in these 3.0 videos and I bought Version 7 to upgrade and now it does not work! Thanks.

    Just a thought....
    How are you opening the Premiere Elements 3 project in Premiere Elements 7?
    According to the Adobe party line Premiere Elements 7 PDF, you can open projects created in earlier versions of Premiere Elements in Premiere Elements 7, but you cannot open projects created in Premiere Elements 7 in earlier versions.
    Do you have Premiere Elements 3 and 7 on the same computer at this time?
    The Adobe suggestions is, if problems in this regard and instead of right clicking the project file in its saved location, then:
    1. open the project from with Premiere Elements 7
    or
    2. right click the project file in its saved location and name Premiere Elements 7 as the Open With program
    Check it out to see if I have interpreted this info correctly
