Re: Illustrator CS5.5 - Will edit but cannot save .ai files created in CS3

Hi! I recently installed Illustrator CS5.5 over CS3 (as part of a CS5.5 CS upgrade). I did not uninstall CS3, as I still sometimes need to use it with collegues who have not upgraded. I am on a PC with Windows 7 (64 bit).
Today I opened an .ai file I had created in CS3 about 6 months ago, edited it and attempted to save it as a CS5 .ai file. It would not alow this, popping up a message saying "Can't save the illustration!".
So, I attempted to save it as a CS3 .ai file, and recieved another error message. In teh end, I just had to close down Illustartor and lose my work. I will re-do it in CS3.
Anyone got any idea what the problem might be?
Help!
Cheers
Angus

Thanks for the response.
No mysteries here…… I just have a common or garden single home PC installation of Windows 7 (64 bit) and the file I was trying to use in CS5.5 is simply a series of charts (graphs) – each in a separate layer - that are then placed in a report. File is 454 kb.

created by Barbara B. in Photoshop Elements - View the full discussionYou are being deceived by the Save button, like most people. That button is not the Save As button, really, but a link to the DNG converter. To save your raw file in an image format, click the Open button instead and then save in the format of your choice in the editor.

I am trying to download iTunes, but cannot save the file because the thank you page comes up right away.

I am trying to download itunes 11.1.3.
I cannot save the file,ItunesSetup.exe.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Illustrator CS2 will open, but cannot use any functions

For some reason I am able to open files in Illustrator, but am unable to undo, or open a new file, or basically use any of the functions in the tool bar. Please help!! I've been trying to troubleshoot this on my own for about 3 hours w/o success!!
Thanks!

Hi Jacob and Harron,
I've tried both deleting the AIprefs file, and moving the entire folder to my desktop and neither worked.
More detail about what I'm experiencing:
I can open Illustrator, but unless I open a document from the intro window I can't do anything else with the tool bar across the top (i.e., the menu buttons that include, file, edit, object, type, select, filter, effect, view, window, and help.) I am also unable to close the program using the "x" button in the upper right hand corner. In order to close Illustrator I have to cntl alt del my way out. Have either of you heard about anything like this before??
I truly appreciate all your help!! I have 3 projects that I can't work on b/c of this issue!! UGH!

Recipients see attachments inline, but cannot save attachments

When sending emails with image attachments, I have some recipients (typically PC users) who can see the attachments in the email itself, but cannot save the files. Here's how one person described it... "For some reason the photos showed up as images within your email but the files with the images didn't arrive."
Any ideas how to get the attachments so they can use them? It doesn't seem to make a difference if I drag and drop, use the paperclip icon, or use the "Attach File" menu option in under the "File" menu.
Thank you!

Since this occurs with only some recipients, the some are more than likely using Outlook as their email client which depending on the Windows and Outlook version used by the recipient has had various problems with Mail's RTF.
RTF with Tiger Mail can be HTML format but certain things occur in order for a newly composed message to be sent as HTML format such as selecting a font and/or changing the font size with the font panel, changing the font style for selected text such as bold, underline or italics or changing the font color and/or when including a signature that was composed with RTF or HTML. Image/photo attachments can be received as embedded depending on the Outlook version used by the recipient when using RTF for message composition with Tiger Mail.
Try using Plain Text for message composition instead which will resolve it.

Cannot save jpg files in outlook express

Is there a problem sending a jpg file from Apple mail to outlook express? People I am sending to say they can see the photo, but cannot save the file.

Do you have the "send Windows friendly files" checked? Other than that, there isn't much you can do that I know of; it is the recipient's ISP server/settings and their mail client settings that determine the remainder.

"I received a PDF File via email,I can fill out the text box but I cannot save the file."

I sent a PDF file to someone via email, they were able to fill out the form but they cannot save the file to send back, I have checked the security properties and there were no restrictions. Do I need to save the PDF a specific way? I have sent it to others that have Acrobat Pro and are able to save but those without Acrobat are unable to save. Please advise!
Thank you!

I require Coldfusion 8 Developer Edition but cannot find the link

I specifically require Coldfusion 8 Developer Edition but cannot find the link anywhere. It appears as though links to it have been replaced with the Dev edition of CF10.
I require this for two reasons:
Firstly, it would be nice to be able to develop on my local PC rather than directly on the production site.
Secondly, the CFIDE folder has gone missing and I have been told that copying the one installed from a Dev edition will fix it.
Thank you.

This is on Windows 2003 Server 32-bit.
I found the original CF8 install file (coldfusion-80-win.exe) and the update to 8.01 (coldfusion-801-win_updater.exe) and used them to install the Developer Edition onto my local PC.
I then zipped up the CFIDE folder and sent it to the server, and extracted it into the correct place (on my server, it was under C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot)
I had to change the CFIDE path in the \lib\neo-runtime.xml file to get around the "Could not find the ColdFusion Component or Interface CFIDE.adminapi.security" error.
And now it all works again. Thank you for your advice.

I need to have my authorizations reset for Digital Editions, but cannot contact anyone at Adobe.

I need to have my authorizations reset for Digital Editions, but cannot contact anyone at Adobe. Would like to purchase new devices for my reading, ubt need reset before I can. How do I get in touch with someone at Adobe. Everything on web site just goes in circles.

Adobe Live Chat: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html,
or as a slight short cut try http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=digital-editions&topic=using-my-product-or-ser vice
Click on 'I still need help' and then you should see 'Chat with an Agent' at the bottom of the page.
'Ask our experts' will indeed just lead you back to this forum.
Sometimes you will get ‘Sorry! All agents are busy— please check back soon.’
Don’t refresh the page, just hang on and it should eventually go to ‘Chat Now, an agent is available’.
They can reset your authorizations, and then you must reauthorize any devices you still need.
(Unfortunately, Adobe haven’t got round to an admin website for viewing and editing authorizations.)
Some of the representatives haven't been properly trained and don't know what to do (and claim there is nothing they can do);
in that case the only way seems to be to give up that chat and try another session hoping for a properly trained representative.
If your problem is with another device using Overdrive, Bluefire, Aldiko or similar third party app, it is recommended not to mention that app when on the chat, just mention that you have run out of authorizations (E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS) . Thanks to AJP_Bear for that tip.

gj,
Unless it has worked since the upgrading, I believe you should uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

A client has sent me an indesign file I cannot open. She says she has updated to Indesign CC 2014. I am a CC member and fully updated my own software but cannot open the file she has sent me, not even if she saves as an IDML, how do I resolve the problem?

There are a few things to try.
First, if this file came to you vial email attachment, it could have been corrupted. Ask her to zip the file and send it again. That sometimes helps.
I suppose there's a chance that the file is already zipped, so see if that's the case and unzip it if so.
If the file name doesn't end with .indd, add it and see if that helps.
If you are double-clicking, try File>Open from within InDesign.
Last (and I know this sounds like a joke, but I've seen it many times), sometimes people attach a Mac Alias or Windows Shortcut instead of the actual file. What is the file size? If it's really small, that might be the reason.
Also, no offense intended if some of this sounds like stuff you have already tried. I don't know what you know, so I'm just spit-balling.
