Saving Ai File problem in cs3

Hi guys
im using cs3 in power mac g5, and when im trying to save an artwork into "Ai" file format, im getting an "unknown error" message, and ive already deleted the com.adobe.illustrator.plist, but still...im recieving the same error.
it was working fine yesterday, coud it be one of this things that i did that caused this:
plication
- 1st i had downloaded a bit torrent application
- 2nd is i force shutdown the computer cause it is shutting down very slow and i have to go.
can any1 help me here please.

excuse you guys
not having the installer doesnt mean i got the software from any third party sites or any sort of stuff. im using an office computer and what i mean from not having the installer is i dont have it on my hand (since it is not mine and an office property, and certain offices has certain rules and procedures?), and im trying to figure out how to fix the problem on this case or im finding an alternate solution than resorting to re-installing!
nyway if the problem cannot be solved then its fine, i can re-install it..but not soon, other than accusing or calling someone a "brat" for a sudden jump of conclusion. i think is not nice
tnx for the help and tips though.
regards

  • Double file extensions keep showing up when saving a file in Illustrator CS3???

    I just installed the CS3 suite and when I am saving files in illustrator I keep getting double file extensions. For example if I save a file named "filename" as a .eps file it shows up in the save window with filename.eps.eps Also, if I click through the possible file types to save it keeps adding them one after the other so if I click. say pdf eps and ai the file in the "Save As:" window looks like this " filename.pdf.eps.ai.ai" Any ideas why this is happening? I keep having to mouse click in the "Save As:" box and delete the extra extension. This is really annoying!!
    I am running the design premium CS3 on OSX 10.5 on a mac pro.
    Thanks.

    >Wade... I've seen it... and reported it originally to Adobe. I've since realized it's a 10.5.1 issue. It doesn't happen with 10.4.11, just 10.5.1
    I've seen extra periods (.) and extra extensions.
    then you and Dave have the same conflict with a third party software, corrupt font, corrupt preference or the like because it is not happening o my Mac Pro and I have the same model Mac as you do and I am working fine in 10.5.1 and only problem I have had with AI CS 3 is when I tried to place a 3D CAD file with the extension .dxf which is not really supported.
    I have not seen this even once. Would you like to see screen shots, it honestly is not a 10.5.1 or Illustrator issue on its own. This has to be user specific.

  • Problem saving gif file over the net

    I am using a simple loop to save files using a URL Connection. It grabs html files fine and they look right but when I used to to download an animated gif it had an error. It saved the file but when I tried to open the image I got a "drawing failed" message.
    I compared it to the working image and the sizes were identical. I also compared the characters in notepad and the beginning and end characters were identical. I looked at the preview in "My Computer" when you select it and it drew only the first line or so. This makes me believe it is a problem with how it switches lines when saving. I checked the ends of the lines though and they also seem identicall. Any ideas? Here is the code. Thankyou.
    FileWriter fileName = new FileWriter(saveFileName);
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
    new InputStreamReader(
    newConnection.getInputStream()
    BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fileName);
    for (;;) {
    int data = in.read();
    // Check for EOF
    if (data == -1) break;
    else {
    System.out.print ( (char) data);
    out.write(data);
    }

    GIF files are binary files and can be corrupted if you use the Reader and Writer classes. Use the *Stream classes, like FileInputStream and FileOutputStream.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

  • Hi, I cant open a document I have been working on. It has previously been saved without a problem now all I get is a box stating that the file cannot be opened. Any suggestions please?

    Hi, I reecntly purchased a Mac and the Pages App. But now I find that I cant open a document I have been working on. It has previously been saved without a problem now all I get is a box stating that the file cannot be opened. It is visible in both the Pages Windows and under Recent Items but just will not open. Any suggestions please?

    Hi Colourdoodles,
    Maybe the document is corrupted. Can you open other Pages documents? Preview may open it. Right click (or control click) on the document in Finder and Open With > Preview.
    If that works, Edit > Select All, Edit > Copy. Then paste into a blank Pages document. Formatting may be messed up, but you will have editable text. Then Save (with a different name), close and see if you can open the new document.

  • Problems saving a file in Adobe Reader 11 after highlighting

    Hi,
    Has anyone come across a problem where Adobe Reader 11 seems to have problems in saving certain files after highlighting some text?
    One of our processes involves checking information and to do this we open up a saved PDF file in Adobe Reader 11 and highlight the relevant text to confirm the amounts have been checked, and then save the file.
    This is all done in Adobe Reader - not the full version and not using any external helpers etc, and running under Windows 8 64 bit.
    However one of our users is having problems with certain PDF files where, when she goes to save the file after highlighting, it comes up with an error saying that it can't save to this filename and requests that a new filename is entered. If we then save to a new file, and then save as to the original file it works.
    So basically this user is having to save the PDF file twice after highlighting - which is annoying.
    The strange thing is it appears to only be happening with PDFs created from certain applications on our system (payroll software and BACS processing software) whilst other PDFs work fine. Another user, also using Adobe Reader 11 and also using Windows 8 64 Bit, can open up the problem files, highlight text and save the changes without any problem at all, so it doesn't appear to be the files themselves.
    I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Adobe Reader without any success.
    Can anyone suggest anything?
    Thanks

    I'm getting something similar, but the message I get is "...pdf already exists. Do you want to replace it?"  I click 'Yes' and the document is replaced under its original file name.  This is using Reader 11.0.10.
    Sorry - I should have been clearer.
    She gets exactly that question, but when she clicks yes, then she gets 'The document could not be saved. Cannot save to this filename. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder.' At this point the name of the document as shown at the top of the screen has changed to a ???????.tmp filename.
    Trying to save this document over the top of the original now works.
    It looks like something is locking the original file and only releasing it after the attempted save, which then allows the original to be saved over.
    Also using 11.0.10

  • HT5678 I have problems saving pdf files in the web when I use Safari. I don't have this problem with firefox

    I have problems saving pdf files in the web when I use Safari.  I don't have this problem with firefox.

    do they save ok if Safari - Preferences - Security - Allow all other plug-ins is unchecked ?
    If so, likely an adobe or other pdf plugin
    Re-check the setting above & quit any browsers,
    Look in this folder by triple-clicking the line below, then ctrl-clicking it & choosing Services - Open
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    remove anything with pdf in the filename & test again
    Sometimes, plug-ins can be in the User Library folder :
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/

  • When round tripping with photoshop cc, i get a saved psd file with my original raw,the problem is these are high file sizes and taking a lot of space,can i stop this?

    when round tripping with photoshop cc, i get a saved psd file with my original raw,the problem is these are high file sizes and taking a lot of space,can i stop this?

    That's not the workflow that I use. I have my Lightroom preferences set to create TIF images when going to Photoshop. I keep the original raw file and the TIF image (usually reduced to an 8-bit image) and only export JPEG's when they are needed to send to a lab or to send to someone over the Internet. JPEG files are highly compressed. I only create them when they are needed, and they are discarded as soon as they have been used for their intended purpose. I keep the raw file and the Photoshop-created TIF in my library. This requires extra disk space. But I always have the highest quality files available.

  • PROBLEM SAVING LARGE FILES ON ACROBAT READER XI

    I download a largish document (70 - 100 MB) from the on-line storage folder of a friend. But am unable to save it on my PC. I have the recent version of Acrobat Reader 11.0.5 on a PC using Windows 8 and this opens this or any other pdf file without problem. But as soon as I go to save the large files the programme crashes with a 'There's a problem' notice. I then discover it has saved a file name but without file content. Any ideas how I can tackle this problem? Colin

    "Online storage" - does that mean a website that is accessed via a browser?  If so, you can download the document by right-clicking on the link to the PDF, then select 'Save link as' or 'Save target as'.

  • Problem saving .ai file into a pdf

    Hi, I've been saving .ai files into .pdf's forever without any problems but now I can't and I can't figure it out. I am working in CS4 with a CS4 file. Here is the error I am getting. Maybe its just been too long of a day.
    This is an Adobe® Illustrator® File that was saved without PDF Content. To Place or open this  le in other applications, it should be re-saved from
    Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turned on. Thisoption is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator  le using the Save As command.
    I can't find the 'This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator  le using the
    Save As command.'
    Help!
    thanks

    When you save as a native .ai file you should get a option dialog box to select options. Here is what the dialog looks like on the Mac OS.
    The first check box under Options is what I'm guessing you want to check.

  • This is an error from my HP scanner. How can I fix the problem? An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.

    I recently uploaded the Maverick operating system. I wanted to scan some things on my HP Printer/Scanner and could not . This is the error message I received: An  error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.   Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only. I am a novice with the computer and have no one to help. I hope someone knows an easy fix.
    Thank you

    This worked for me:
    "Although it is not a 'fix' for the HP issue, I did find a workaround that helped me. In the Preferences Panel in MacOS X you can pull up the Printer/Scanner preferences and scan directly from OS X. I'd not known of this prior to posting here and it worked like a charm."
    "Of course, HP should still update their software, but it's good to know that Apple has it covered for them."

  • Problem in saving a file in FTP server

    Hi,
    I am trying to move one zip file from an FTP directory to another. I use the below code.
    OPEN DATASET gv_fname FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
                    IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
                      DO.
                        READ DATASET gv_fname INTO gs_zip_bin.
                        IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.

                          CLEAR gs_zip_bin.
                        ELSE.

                        ENDIF.
                      ENDDO.
                      CLOSE DATASET gv_fname.

    *Now for saving this file on the other folder,

                  CLOSE DATASET gv_arname.
               endif.
    The file get moved successfully. However, when I download the file on to my desktop and when I unzip it, it gives an error message "Cannot open the file; it does not appear to be a valid archive'.
    I also notice that there is a size difference between the original and the archived file as in the picture below.
    I tries using the SCMS_UPLOAD and SCMS_DOWNLOAD function modules to achieve this and it works perfectly.
    However, I did not find any documentation for these function modules and I am not sure if I can use them. I intend to run this program in the background mode.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Fixed it: Delete preferences.
    First, I was wary about deleting preferences because I used EasyFind to search for "textedit" and found many files in different folders throughout the OS and user folders.  I feared deleting the wrong thing.
    So with the EasyFind window open with the search results sorted by date last changed, I opened TextEdit and then its preferences and made a minor change, saved it and then closed the app.
    I then ran EasyFind again sorting by date last changed and the top two items were the only preference files that were changed.  Deleted those two and now all is well.
    EasyFind is freeware found in the App store.  It's invaluable.  I use it often.
