Problem with Illustrator Help - Doesn't load.

I installed CS4 Web Premium on my work computer the day before yesterday. It is running Windows XP Pro with SP2.
After I run Illustrator CS4, and hit F1, my browser opens but the help documentation for Illustrator does not come up!
The URL that Illustrator opens is:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Illustrator/14.0/search.html?AH_ION=true
Here is a screenshot of what the page looks like:
http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/6704/browserhelpillustratoreob8.gif
Is anyone else getting experiencing this?
I have the CS4 Master Collection installed on my MBP and the help menu opens up just fine on there, but it navigates to a completely different URL.

Well, I'm still expericinging the problem.
When I hit F1 or go to Help->Illustrator Help it loads up this URL:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Illustrator/14.0/search.html?AH_ION=true
which doesn't display the illustrator helps docs.
So I played with the URL and realized that it should be opening this URL:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Illustrator/14.0/
which shows the illustrator CS4 help docs.
Hopefully Adobe corrects this issue in the next patch of CS4.

  • Problems with illustrator CS3. loading drawings, swatches everything takes minutes

    Since a couple of days the problems started at my office. All pc's started to have problems with illustrator and photoshop. But most of all illustrator. On start-up it is quick as it used to be but when i want to load a drawing, swatch or symbol it takes minutes. I don't know if it has to do with an update or something else. I only know that it started a few days ago on all pc's but not on the mac's.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bas

    What exactly is a few days ago? The last Windows Update was on last Tuesday. Except for a .NET fix and various Office patches it did not seem to have anything critical, but it may be possible that it affects your computers. It's a far cry, though. More likely it's a virus scanner or something with your network settings, that causes erratic file opening behavior. Hard to tell without more info. your description is too generic and vague.

  • Problems with Illustrator CS2

    Argh! Suspected problem with Illustrator CS2...
    When I look in the Stroke/Fill boxes for colours, I have no options available to me. All that appears is this: http://www.ioimi.com/images/strokefill.jpg.
    Is this normal? All I want to do is selected different colours for the line stroke and fill colour of something I have already drawn using the pen tool.
    Also, how do I move or remove rulers once placed and why is it that if I use the arrow keys on the end of a line it moves it more than one pixel? How do I keep a line straight? It's so much easier in photoshop but I need to learn.
    Please help...
    Thank you!

    That is not the Color palette, it is the Swatches palette. It's where pre-mixed colours, gradients, and patterns can be stored and quickly applied. The file you are using has no swatches.
    You can add your own by loading swatches from any other Illustrator file or from the libraries that ship with Illustrator. You can also add a swatch by mixing a colour in the Color palette and either dragging the colour onto the Swatches palette or clicking one the New Swatch icon (The page icon next to the trash can).

  • Text problems with Illustrator CS6

    Hello. We are having problems with text in Illustrator CS6. 1. When we copy / paste text within illustrator all color information is lost. 2. When we save documents in Illustrator CS6 then re-open text with color attributes changes to different random colors!! For example: If we save an Illustrator document with a paragraph of text that is part red and part black when we re-open the same paragraph might be all gray, or orange or (you pick a color). Can anyone help us here as this is causing no end of grief. Mac OSX 10.8.2

    As promised. This is the response received from iClipboard re the text color problems with Illustrator CS6.
    "Sounds like an Adobe problem especially given their last fix which changed how they worked with the system clipboard. We don't mess with any of the data put on the system clipboard. We simply make an exact copy of it and store it in iClipboard. It's a READ operation, not a WRITE operation so no data on the clipboard is changed. We use standard Apple API's to do all of this (proof is that iClipboard is in the Mac App Store--Apple's review process doesn't allow undocumented API calls)."
    My thanks to the people at iClipboard however the problem still exists. I'll sum up the issue this way. I have created a paragraph of text in Illustrator that combines black text with red text. I copy then paste the text with iClipboard running and the pasted text is all black. I copy then paste the text with iClipboard disabled and the copied text maintains the color information. When I save the Illustrator document with iClipboard running then reopen the black / red text reopens as grey / orange. With iClipboard disabled the reopened document is fine - go figure. The problems only occur with text - images are fine though they were a problem with the first version of Illustrator CS6. Anyone got any suggestions??

  • Problems with "Mac Help"

    My help files, especially "Mac Help", no longer work properly since upgrading to Tiger. If I open "Mac Help", for example, the help window will pop up, but the links will not work (nothing happens when I click on them) and the search feature in help will not work either (the little gray "clock" just spins next to the help bar and nothing else ever happens). Any suggestions on this one? As I'm a relatively recent Mac convert, the help feature was something that I came to rely on. Thanks!

    Hi CP,
    This is a common problem with Mac Help. When it happens, try first (quit Help) deleting this folder:
    Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui
    If Help still doesn't work, try then deleting those files:
    Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist
    Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.help.plist
    (and this one if you find it):
    Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpui.plist
    See also this KB article for more info
    - Mac OS X 10.2, 10.3: Mac Help Viewer unexpectedly quits
    and this excellent X Lab FAQ
    - Troubleshooting Help Viewer
    It seems (not sure about that), that Help caches get easily corrupted when interrupting searches instead of patiently waiting for its internet accessings etc?
    Good luck!

  • Problem with Illustrator 10.0.3

    Hi
    Is anyone experiencing problems with Illustrator 10 on Tiger?
    My Illustrator program unexpectedly shuts down every so often and I don't know how to fix this.
    This also happened on my last Apple iMac using Panther.

    Illustrator has always done that in OSX, doesn't seem to be any way around it. Freehand and Quark are worse.
    When a program unexpectedly quits you should get a window asking if you want to reopen. If you do it creates a new preferences file, supposedly to solve the problem. But it has no effect.

Have managed to get most things working correctly just can't sort this BT email problem out. Will report back later!

  • Smartform: Problem with pages -  some do not load

    Hi,
    I am developing a 5 page Smart Form.
    Currently 1 page has been developed, with all 5 having the same header (1 logo and 3 windows).
    The 1st page has 1 main window and the 2nd page has another. Every page will have a different main window.
    The problem is that even though page 1 is configured to go to page 2, page 2 doesn't load, even though I have a header and main window there as well.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Do I only need 1 main window, containing everything that spreads to all pages?
    How is this supposed to work? Please help.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with field-length in sql-loader

    Hello,
    (sorry I see it's the wrong forum -> SQL-Developer, I searched for SQL-Loader, is there a possibility to change the forum ?)
    I can't find an answer for my question at google, so I hope there is someone in this forum who can help me.
    I have a dat-File that contains 12 500 000 records and want to laod it via sql-loader. The first field contains the ID and there were numbers from 1 to 12 500 000 stored.
    When I run the sql-loader, the ID run up to 9 999 999 and then, for the last 2 500 001 records, ist starts at 1 again.
    I noticed a few things :
    1. Numbers < 10 000 000 don't make Problems
    2. Numbers >= 10 000 000 make Problems, the first digit ( in this example "1") is cut, so the number "10 000 001" ist stored as "1". It comes to double entries (IDs 1 to 2 500 000).
    3. The same field-definition, I have for the third field of the record -> there is no Problem. THERE I can store any number.
    4. I tried to store a number > 100 000 000 -> the first digit was cut too, but ONLY the first digit.
    5. I'm able to store any number manually in the Database.
    So, I have a problem with the first field. If the number is greater then 10 000 000, the first Number is cut. It doesn't make any differance, if the number is 10 000 000 or 999 999 999, just the first digit, in the first field, is cut.
    Any idea ??????????

    sorry, wrong forum. I opened the thread in forum "Export/Import/SQL-Loader & External Tables"

  • Problems with the help menu.

    Hi. I'm a new iMac user and have had problems using the help menu on my computer. Every time I click on help and search a topic I get a blank untitled window. Nothing ever opens up in the window and then the spinning beach ball comes up. It is only in the blank window and I am still able to use the computer normally. I am unable to close or force quit the program and have to restart to get rid of it. I have called tech support and spent over an hour on the phone with no help and ended up reinstalling the operating system. Still having the same problem. Anyone have some advice or have had a similar problem?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Try reindexing the hard drive via Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Spotlight.
    Drag the hard drive into the Privacy section, and the select it in that section, and select the minus sign in the bottom left corner below the field holding the drive.
    Click then on Spotlight every half hour to wait until the Indexing status no longer shows up.
    If Help still doesn't come up entirely, try clicking on the clear jewel in the upper right corner of the Help menu. It may reveal the search field. If it doesn't, quit from the Help Viewer application menu, and then go to com.apple.helpviewer.plist and delete it. Help should then load normally.
    If it still doesn't, try repairing permissions with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility.
    In the end, if that still doesn't work, let us know, and we might suggest something else.
