Saving Ai-Icon as svg – what to consider?
Hi!
i'm a designer from germany. so there may be some bad wording in my explanations. i hope you get my point anyway...
I made some Icons in a glossy aqua-style for a client. they are supposed to be used on an touchscreen interface. the client requested svg files.
after creating the icons in illustrator cs 5, i tried to save them in the svg-format. but they came out bad. i tried different approaches with creating
the glossy gradients. first i used opacity-masks. they came out as black to white gradients. then i tried to make the glossy effect with black to white gradients on negative multiply. that didn't work either. looks like the blend modes were not supported. but other icons were saved properly. with the blend modes.
is it a problem with the opacity-masks? with the blend modes?
i am not an expert on the svg file format. i am used to pdf, eps and ai. but i know there are some restrictions.
heres an example:
i know i know. a lot of gloss, but believe me the client wanted it even glossier.
thank you for your time!

You have enabled Bleed and/ or something is not right with your artboards. Anyway, ask in the AI forum and provide more details - version info, system info, export settings used etc.

The last few days I have been constantly saving my file. A couple of hours ago I renamed the file and then reopened my file a little while later, but the most recent work wasn't saved even though I'm sure I saved it before closing. What can I do? Also, when I have tried to email it to myself as a backup, the fields aren't populated when I open it up. Fyi, I have the free subscription.
Hi Constance,
As i understand your changes in the pdf were not saved...Are you still facing this issue?

I teach Continuing education classes to Real Estate agents and I need to issue them certificates at the class, whihc need to be signed by me and it needs to contain their info on the certificate. The certificate is currently saved in a word format.What i'm trying to accomplish is to do a "mail merge " ( as some classes i have as many as 150 attendees) for the document, digitally sign each one with my signature on the certificate and then e-mail it out to the respective attendees. can this be done? if so How?
This is the step that I took after inputting my signature.
On the right, after saving my document, I click "Get Others to Sign." I was confused because it says that it's powered by EchoSign. Like I stated before, my clients are able to sign this document when I send it to them, but it is returned to me with their signature (not in the signature field, but at the end of the document), and my signature is missing. I tested this on myself - my signature is missing when they receive it. -

I have what I consider the best smart phone. I recently upgraded my PC from Windows Vista to Windows 8 and my Itunes went away. Did I do something wrong or aren't the two compatible?
If the update did not preserve all your Applications you may simply have to download iTunes again and instrall it on Windows 8.
There's nothing strange about an update not preserving installed Applications. -

My Adobe was automatically updated and now I cant find many of the documents I had saved on my iPad. What is going on?
Hi,
Would you take a look at the "Selecting a file location" section in the following document?
How to manage files in Acrobat DC for iOS
I suspect that you are looking at the Recent section. Your can switch to Local (for the files & folders stored on your iPad/iPhone) or Document Cloud (for the files & folders stored in the Adobe Document Cloud, formerly Acrobat.com) to find your "lost" files.
Please let us know if you have additional questions. Thank you. -

You are not addressing Apple here.
No, once you install iOS 7 that is it. -

I need to know what is considered Data on my phone when I am being charged and rated for usage?
Photos? Texting?That's a great question, RhondaBIG! It's important to understand how you are being billed for wireless services used.
Here's a link that may better explain data usage and charges: http://vz.to/1usmny2. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. Thanks!

Just wondering if apple has any guidelines on what is considered explicit? Is one or two profanities in a episode considered explicit? Any help on this one?
Looks like iTunes grabbed the RIAA "standards" which are pretty vague:
Uniform Guidelines for Determining Whether a Sound Recording Should Use a PAL Notice
Participant record labels and/or artists should use the following guidelines to determine whether any particular sound recording contains strong language or depictions of violence, sex, or substance abuse to such an extent as to merit parental notification, as described in more detail in these Standards. Strong language or depictions of violence, sex, or substance abuse to such an extent is referred to herein as “PAL Content.” Only the record label or artist that owns and/or distributes the particular sound recording may determine whether the sound recording contains PAL Content and warrants the use of a PAL Notice.
A determination that a sound recording contains PAL Content is not a statement as to whether the sound recording is or is not suitable for particular listeners. Nor is the absence of any notification that a sound recording contains PAL Content a statement that the sound recording is completely devoid of all references to strong language or depictions of violence, sex, or substance abuse. Rather, it is utilized to provide parents, consumers, and companies within the sales or distribution chain notice that parental discretion is advised when purchasing the particular sound recording for children or when listening to the sound recording with children present; (ii) guide the labeling, marketing, and distribution of the sound recording; and (iii) provide notice whether an Edited Version (defined below) of a sound recording exists. A record label or artist determination that a sound recording contains PAL Content shall result in the use of PAL Content indicators, as more fully described in these Standards, to provide notice of the PAL Content. Such indicators are referred to herein as “PAL Notices.”
It is obviously not possible to define each individual situation in which a record label or artist should determine that a sound recording contains PAL Content. In making such a determination, however, record labels and artists should consider:
1. that contemporary cultural morals and standards should be used in determining whether parents or guardians would find the sound recording suitable for children;
2. the context in which the material is used, as some words, phrases, sounds, or descriptions might be offensive to parents if spotlighted or emphasized, but might not offend if merely part of the background or a minimal part of the lyrics;
3. the context of the artist performing the material, as well as the expectations of the artist’s audience;
4. that lyrics are often susceptible to varying interpretations, and that words can have different meanings and should not be viewed in isolation from the music that accompanies them (i.e., lyrics when accompanied by loud and raucous music can be perceived differently than the same lyrics when accompanied by soft and soothing music);
5. that such a determination requires sensitivity and common sense, and that context, frequency, and emphasis are obviously important; isolated or unintelligible references to certain material might be insufficient to warrant labeling a particular sound recording as containing PAL Content;
6. that these Standards apply to the case of a single track commercially released as well as to full albums (whether released in the form of a CD, cassette or any other configuration); and
7. that a sound recording may contain strong language or depictions of violence, sex, or substance abuse, yet due to other factors involved, may not merit a designation as containing PAL Content.
The record label or artist determination that a sound recording contains PAL Content shall affect the marketing, sale, and distribution of such sound recording, as described in greater detail throughout these Standards. For purposes of clarification, only the applicable record label or artist shall determine whether any particular sound recording contains PAL Content, and all other Participants shall abide by the applicable record label or artist’s determination.

What is considered low light condition?
What is considered low light condition for the keyboard? I'm in a room with 2 bright led tube lights and the keyboard light is still on? i had to manually turn it off
The light sensor can be turned on and off in the Keyboard and Mouse system preference pane and the Display preference pane. The sensor is located to the left of the iSight Camera on the top of the screen bezel.
A low light condition is when the light sensor can't see light. Now the problem with the new MacBooks is that the light sensor is on the screen not the keyboard. So you have to have light shining on the screen for the keyboard to turn off. Even if you have a desk lamp shining on your computer, the keyboard light will still be on because it is short range and cannot see the light.

What is considered a local account?
what is considered a local account?
There is no such animal if you are talking about iCloud.
Macs (though not iPhones) can have several user accounts, so that different people have their own sets of documents, preferences,and so on.
An iCloud account accesses email, calendars, contacts etc on the iCloud server. Your Macs and devices read them from the server, so obviously these are not 'local'.
You can also have individual calendars and contacts kept under 'On My Mac' - these, as you would surmise, are actually stored on the Mac and are not 'synced' to iCloud - and thus won't appear on other Macs or devices. So these are 'local' but they are not 'accounts'. -
