Problems illustrator cs3 on windows 7 64bit

I've got a problem with my new computer, its a new hp workstation with windows 7 64 bit. Illustrator cs3 uses just a smal part of my virtual memory and is not stable. When i try to export to psd or jpeg it runs out of memory. My computer got a quad-core processor with more then 6 gb installed RAM.
Is there a way to avoid or to cure this problem?

My computer got a quad-core processor with more then 6 gb installed RAM.
Of no relevance whatsoever. As a mostly single-threaded 32bit app, AI doesn't care for any such things. assuming, bloat features would not get in the way, you could probably run it on a 10 year old machine and get the same performance. Anyway, CS3 is not safe on Win 7, even more so the 64bit version, so this is probably all that needs saying. You can toy around with compatibility modes and all that, but whether this will help you in any way, is anybody's guess. so at the risk of sounding like big red A's marketing department, giving the CS4 trial a spin and then upgrading might be worth your time and money...

Probleme mit CS3 nach Windows updates

Hallo,
Mein CS3 war registriert und lief sauber. Nach dem in den letzten Tagen zig Updates von Widows kamen und installiert wurden, will CS3 eine neue Registrierung.
Aber wenn man online erneut registrieren klickt, passiert nichts.
Im meinem Account bin ich angemeldet.
Was tun, weiß jemand Rat?
Beerchen

Danke für die Antwort.
So ganz genau kann ich es nicht nachvollziehen. Aber nachdem ich das Programm
mit dem Task-Manager geschlossen habe, anders wollte es nicht.
Und das Programm neu geöffnet habe hat es wieder funktioniert. Möglicherweise
war mein PC ein wenig Durcheinander durch die 40 updates, obwohl ich mehrere
Neustarts gemacht hatte.
Vielen Dank für die Hilfe.
Ich hätte aber noch ein 2. Problem.
Mein Haupt-PC, ich habe 2, hat seinen Geist aufgegeben und ich würde gerne diese
verlohrene Lizenz für mein Laptop nehmen, habe aber keine Ahnung wie.
Wissen Sie wie ich die Lizenz deaktivieren kann und für mein Labtop aktivieren?
Danke und schöne Feiertage,
Dotthy

Trying to install Illustrator CS3 on Windows 8.1 and get error message-installer database is corrupt

When I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a windows 8.1 machine and get the following error message. " Installer database is corrupt". Have tried rebooting computer etc. and still the same problem, any suggestions?

BrianDany I am sorry you are facing difficulties installing Creative Suite 3 under Windows 8.1. Windows 8.1 was not available during the time period which Creative Suite 3 was developed and the last updates released.
I would recommend reviewing your PDApp.log and possibly AMT3lib.log file for error messages which are preventing the installation. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4. You are welcome to post any specific error messages which you discover to this discussion.

Illustrator CS3 for Windows upon launch crashes

Recently, bought an Apple iMac, installed Parallels virtual machine and installed my Windows XP Professional and installed my CS3 Premium. Every program works except Illustrator. It crashes every time I launch it getting the error message..."sorry for the inconvenience...'' and asks to send an error report. I have uninstalled and reinstalled every possible way, downloaded all the updates, and fixed the registry, repeatly and every time it fails.
I have been using CS3 on my HP laptop every since I got it and never had issues. My brother seems to think that my installation disk is scratched and messes up the download. So, basically, it somehow got scratched when I put it on my mac. Could this be an issue or is this something else?
Chris

Hello Again:
To follow up on my last post.. I had a real bad time with my computer most recently and had to recover it. Since I had a fresh install, I went with service pack 3. I use Windows XP.
I did install Web Developer Premium CS3, but left out Acrobat Professional. I also decided to go with the default mouse driver for Win XP. In Illustrator I turned off the save to clip board upon exit feature.
Now for the longest time, no matter how much I use Illustrator, I am not having any problems on exit. I am not exactly sure why other than I have a fresh install of my OS.
Also: It has been mentioned in other threads that Acrobat was the problem or the mouse driver was the problem or settings in preferences, or even the start up definition file (which I trashed and Illustrator reset it on start.)
So now I am happy to have Illustrator CS3 working well.
Thought I should repost.. thanks,
Michael R.

Gradient with stroke problem Illustrator CS3

We make a gradient object in Illustrator CS3 and give it a stroke which is centered. Then we rotate the object and the gradient rotates with the object.
But then when we put the stroke alignment to inside or outside the gradient fails. It shows the gradient in the original 0-position instead of the angle we have created. When we put the stroke alignment back to center the gradient shows as we meant it to show again.
When stroke alignment is on outside or inside before we rotate the object it shows the same problem.
But when I copy an object from CS2 with an angled gradient and a inside or outside aligned stroke. The problem isn't there. When we start copying the object within CS3 the problem shows again (not when I use alt-key to copy, but with ctrl+c and then ctrl+v, ctrl+f or ctrl+b).
Illustrator CS2 didn't have this problem. But now in CS3 we have it. I used to have this same problem in old versions from Macromedia Flash. But I never had it with Illustrator.
Is this a bug or do we need to handle our gradients in a different way when using Illustrator CS3?

It's a memory issue. If you scale your artwork down (say, to 50%), then save, it should work (it can be scaled up in the page layout software). If you're using raster effects you'll have to make sure they scale as well and that your raster effects resolution is appropriate for the final output size.

Illustrator CS3 on Windows- Freezing Issue

I have Illustrator CS3 on my dell computer and I am having issues with it freezing frequently. Most of the time it happens while saving but it also happens at other annoying times. Typically the program will have to Quit Unexpectedly, causing any unsaved work to be deleted. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

So I like several others have been fighting the on going battle of Saving issues as well as Exiting AI errors. I have searched for several days now (which is ridiculous). I have searched in Forums from Adobe.com to Chase.com. I have seen answers, from not exiting using the X in the top right, to deleting the pref. folder.
I have even tried all of the tips and suggestions. So you want to know what works...Well here is what I have done to get my AI to work well for now. Tomorrow it may be hanging up all over again.
* In AI>Edit>Preferences>File Handling and Clipboard> Uncheck All of the below:
Enable Version Cue, Copy As: PDF and AICB(no transparency support)
* Unmaximize the window size.
* File>Print>Printer:Adobe PDF as default.
* Reboot!
Adobe needs to fix this issue and SOON!
*** No one buys expensive software expecting to make so many adjustments to get it to work.

New Illustrator CS3 Install Windows 7 64-bit Problem

I just migrated from XP to a clean install of Win 7 Pro 64-bit.
For some reason, Illustrator loads with no palletes and when I try to create a new document, the following appears:
Now if I run as Administrator, Illustrator loads normally without this error, but every time I start Illustrator, I get a User Account Control warning popup. Is there any way to tell UAC that Illustrator is on some approved program list and to stop bothering me about it?

I'm not seeing anything new added to the Event log security at the time I launch the program and get the UAC popup.
I get the UAC for all programs that have to run with Admin privilages. So far that means Illustrator (or else it won't load it's palletes), QuarkXpress 8.02 and TMPGenc Xpress. All of them malfunction in some way if not run with Admin level tokens.
I wish the UAC would learn which programs are 'safe to run', but it doesn't. I started Illustrator up a dozen times and still get the UAC when I start it. If I don't run it with Admin levels, I get the popup shown at the beginning of this thread.

Mouse pointer Problem with CS3 and windows 7

Upgraded
to a new PC which has Windows 7(32bit) as an operating system. Installed my Photoshop CS3 and everything seems ok except when I magnify in the navagator panel. Once I zoom in my mouse pointer changes to 3 hands in the navigator panel. I powered up my old laptop which has Vista and my CS3
then matched up the mouse settings in the control panel on the new PC. Used the same usb mouse on both PC's, the older Vista laptop worked fine but the windows 7 PC would get a tripple pointer in the navigation panel when I magnified. In the windows 7 laptop I then set the compatibility for Photoshop CS3 to run in XP mode but the problem did not clear. I see in FAQ for CS4 people have complained about tripple cursers in windows 7 but the replies indicated that the recommended fix did not work. Any help apreciated.
Tom

Thanks for your solution. I by changing the setting to 125% I am now able to use CS3 without tripple pointers.
My eyesight is challenged so the decrease in text is a challenge but I can change the setting when I will use CS3 so I have a workarount.
Thanks,
Tom

Problems installing cs3 on windows 7

Does CS3 install and work normal when installed on a windows 7 system? Some say it installed / worked just fine. Others that they had problems installing or getting it to run. Others that it depens on which windows 7 system you have. Etc. etc.
What do I have to take into account when installing cs3 on a windows 7 machine? I know it's not designed for windows 7 but I rather use cs3 then cs4.

No one yet. I'm thinking about bying a laptop which has windows 7 already installed (I think home edition), but googling I found various topics of people having trouble getting cs3 master collection to work (programs of master collection not being installed, error messages about missing windows files etc, etc.). Which version of windows 7 should I have to make cs3/cs4 work? Or should I be able to install cs3/4 on any windows 7 computer without any problems? Or should I do anything specific before installing?
I'm a little worried that I won't be able to use cs3 (which I much rather use than cs4) when I buy a new computer with windows 7.

Help with installation of Illustrator (CS3 on Windows Vista)

I downloaded Illustrator onto my laptop, but when I go and try and nstall it, it gives a message saying: installation cannot continue until the following applications are closed: internet explorer.
Please close the applications listed above and click 'try again' to continue the installation.
The thing is that I do close IE!! I've tried re-starting, pressing CTRL + ALT + DEL, but nothing works! I am seriously desperate. What is the problem and how do I go about fixing it? I need Illustrator installed.
Mere

I do not know your exact problem and I do not know if this is going to do the job but for what it is worth. Uninstall IE restart your computer then install AI. Then reinstall IE.
As I say I do not know if this would work but it might be worth a try.

Adobe Illustrator CS3 on Windows XP Pro

Please Help! When I open Illustrator it works beautifully and does computer with other processes. When I try to save my work either with save or save as Illustrator freezes. other programs continue to work. can only close Illustrator by manual shut-down of entire computer. Please help - anyone
Thanks,
Carol

A little late on the discussion but here's how to solve this issue (for those still having it and for those that will eventually run into it):
Go to My Computer - Control Panel - Regional and Language Options. On the Languages tab, click on Details - Key Settings - Change Key Combination (or something like that, my OS is not in English) and uncheck both boxes. You'll notice that the key combination set is one that we tend to use quite a lot in Illustrator...

Saving as HTML can't see anything when saved illustrator CS3 for windows

I'm working on a newsletter that will be used in a blast email. I am rather new at illustrator. I was told that I need to save it as html and did that but after it is saved and reopened there is nothing to see except boxes with a "x" in it. I tried linking and embedding the images but it didn't make any difference. Its not just the images its everything. Please help! I need to get this done today.
Thanks

When saving using the save for web you must use html with images or just images. Which one will depend on if you plan on using another html file or not.
The html file is not an image format. It is a text file with tags in it that tells your web browser where to find the images.
When you upload the html file to your web server, you also have to upload the images in the corresponding folder that matches the tag in the html file.
Example:
<img src="http://example.com/folder/image.jpg">
In your ftp program, once you access the folder that is visible to the world (where you store your default.html or index.html file) create a folder and in that folder upload your jpg image. Make sure you check capitalization of both folders and files as some servers are case sensitive.
If you need more help with the html portion I recommend that you post to the dreamweaver forum or see if your server has a forum and ask there. As there are several different methods in uploading files so I could easily miss something.
Good luck

Keyword FIND problem in CS3 Bridge (Windows XP Professional)

Select a large group of photos. File > File Info. In File Info dialogue box, enter Europe in the keyword field.
Next, select a sub-group, add the keyword as above Italy. For another sub-group add the word France, and for a third sub-group add the word England. Keywords are separated by commas.
Now, browsing all the Europe photos, select a few photos from each of the three countries AS A GROPUP (this is important), and using File Info, keyword all of that group Landscape. You will notice in the File Info dialogue box that the keyword field now says (multiple values) so add a comma, and then the word Landscape.
If you then, again, browse all the Europe photos, and go to Edit > Find > keywords contains Italy AND keywords contains Landscape, and use the criteria Match if ALL criteria are met NO results are returned. (It does work if criteria is ANY criteria are met.)
So how do you find only the images that are Landscapes in Italy?
I notice that if the word Landscape is added only to some images of Italy, then SEPARATELY only added to some images from France, and then SEPARATELY only added to some images from ENGLAND the ALL search criteria does work. But this is pretty lame, and totally defeats the whole idea of batch keywording. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a work-around? Does Adobe know of this issue?

Hey, I screwed up the search for waterfall. I thought I put Costa Rica on a group of files, and then went back and added waterfall. When I searched I got no results. Tried it in Vista search and got no results either. Discovered a DUMB mistake. Had spelled Costa as Costra. When I did a search for Costra Rica and waterfall it gave the correct results.
So bottom line it does work! Sorry for the mixup. Guess that sends you back to the search drawing board. Try same search in another program and see if you get the correct response. If you have Vista the advanced search lets you add keywords separated with semicolon (;).
