Trim Mark problem. CS5 Any suggestions?
I am setting out A4 front and back covers as one piece of (A3+bleed) artwork to be reproduced by digital printing. After printing, the covers will be trimmed on four sides then wire bound.
I set up artwork with covers side by side with 10mm in centre to allow 5mm trim for each spine. My problem is that Illustrator CS5 adds trims on the proof which do not include a facility to specify centrefold trims or even a centreline. AI assumes all artwork will be an single rectangle and only puts trims on the four corners.
I can create two covers as two separate pieces of artwork with suitable bleed and trims, but then I must proof front and back separately and the printer must re-position each cover side by side arranging trims with his pre-press software. That is inefficient.
I simply want to hand over a facsimile proof and a complete .pdf fiIe with correct trims. I tried drawing the spine trims I required, but AI ignored them for proofing, even with the desk top enlarged to accommodate the trim marks. The Print dialogue box trims take priority. Has Adobe missed a trick here or am I overlooking a set-up requirement?
I considered taking the artwork into InDesign but ID also treats my artwork as one page with or without a centrefold, according to how I specify the pages.
But for the fold facility, the ID Print dialogue behaves the same as AI, as you might expect.
Can anyone offer suggestions other than the separate artwork option I have described?
Dear TerraAustralis,
I work in CS5 and I am trying to create trim marks so that I can manually adjust it after and create more of them since I have a multiple itmes to trim.
I get an error message when I try to create the mark:
I have a rectangle with or with stroke or fill (it does the same error), I selct Object-Trim marks
and I get this: <The filter cannot complete because of an unknown error>
NESS
what can I do to be able to edit the marks without making them all manually like before...
since the Crop marks command does not allow us to manipulate the marks?
Thank you in advance for your help.

I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs using the new computer, there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out" during play back, similar to a small scratch on a vinyl record. Although when I play the same song over again, the "miss" occurs in a different location during the song. No probs with old computer, just the new one. I'm onto my third new computer - same problem. Any suggestions please?
You don't say which version of iTunes you are using, but the symptoms you describe have been encountered by some users with the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.
There is an alternative version for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
that seems to address the most of the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version of 12.1.0.77 - including problems with Bluetooth speakers where either sound is degraded or completely absent. The alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer. The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.
Some users have reported that after installing this alternative version it is necessary to adjust the "Play audio using" selection (normally to "Direct Sound" rather than "Windows Audio Session", though this may vary based on your audio hardware/drivers) in Edit > Preferences > Playback to restore glitch-free audio (one part of the reported symptoms is that the "Direct Sound" choice isn't available, usually in Windows 8). It may also be necessary to ensure that your Bluetooth speakers are active and selected as the default audio device before you run iTunes.
If this doesn't address the issue, you may want to think about reverting to iTunes 12.0 - see Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers. -
I can't Start, Uninstall of Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: "Window Installer Service could not be accessed". No other programs having similar problem. Any suggestions how to fix it?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

My iphone 5 does not appear to be remembering my home wifi network and connect to it automatically. I have to reconnect manually each time. My other iphone (4s w/iOS6) has no such problems. Any suggestions?
It's not a bug in iOS 6, and it won't be fixed. It's usually caused by your phone having been paired to 2 different networks with the same SSID. So it needs to ask which one you meant. Occasionally be corrupt data in the network settings, which is why Allan suggested Forget This Network.

I am unable to update an app, Chirps! USA. I have tried both wireless and when connected to the computer. I contacted the company and they said it was an iTunes problem. ANy suggestions?
Hi..
Delete the app then reinstall.
Hold the app icon down until all the apps jiggle then tap the x then tap Delete. Press the Home button once or twice to stop the jiggling.
Then go to the iTunes store and re download the app.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
That should download the most recent version including whatever update was available.
You won't be charged again. -
As i was using my itouch(2nd gen)there was a sudden and drastic increase in temperature on the rear portion(metal portion) and since then it is not working.Has anyone come across a similar problem?Any Suggestions?
Sounds to me like the battery has failed.
You can take it to an Apple Store. They MAY be able to do something.. Or, you can find parts and "How-To" repair guides on the internet. eBay and Google are your friends... -
Comcast just replaced my cable modem/wireless router. All devices connect properly except my iPhone 4. It shows itself to be connected to the network, but it does not load any web page. Resetting the iPhone does not solve the problem. Any suggestions?
Thank you for your response.
I had rebooted the router (several times, actually), to no avail.
I do not know the answer to whether MAC filtering is enabled on the router. Have tried to find info about that, but unsuccessfully. Router is an Arris TG852G, supplied by Comcast. I would be surprised if MAC filtering were the issue, since in addition to the computer, we have successfully connected several other devices to the wifi, namely an iPad, a Android phone and a Kindle Fire - all able to access internet pages through the wifi, and all without a need to add the device to a MAC address whitelist. To add to the mystery, the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone 4 to my network and access web pages. He was unable to connect my iPhone, however, after trying for some time.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that an iPhone cannot connect to a wireless "n" router, only "b" or "g". The Arris router is described as a n/g/b compliant router, and as noted the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone, so don't know why that would be the issue here.
By the way, my iPhone does connect wirelessly to my network at home. This difficulty is at a second home.
Any other thoughts would be appreciated. -
I have lost AirPlay (with iPad and iPod touch (new) both on os5 ) and sharing with my PC (uptodate iTunes) since accepting a software upgrade to the Apple TV yesterday. I have tried restoring and reinstalling this software but this failed to solve the problem. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Check your Windows settings along this contribution from Chrism0:

Also check that the ports 5353 and 5354 (Bonjour (mDNSResponder), AirPlay, Home Sharing, Printer Discovery) are open on Windows Firewall.

I am unable to text after update. Also, the dock buttons are frozen. I've tried restoring, but it doesn't fix problem. Any suggestions?
You posted in a thread that has not had any activity in 2 years! Please start your own topic. Also, please describe in detail all you have attempted to do in order to resolve the issue.
It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.
Please complete or update your system profile so the users here can properly help you. -

Since dowloading Mavericks last week my Mac is very slow. Anyone else having this problem? any suggestions as to what to do to speed things up?
It will help people help you better if you post your iMac variant and Mac OSX version. Please do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click the "More Info" button. That will give this window:
The model is in the line I've indicated with the red arrow. Please also post the results for "Memory" and "Processor."
DO NOT post the serial number, however. -
I have an early 2008 Mac Pro and want to install a 3TB internal hard drive. Is this compatible? The manual indicates 1 TB per bay, but I have already installed two 2 TB hard drives in two other bays, and have had no problems. Any suggestions?
RE: SATA Bus speed:
Typical Rotating drives available today, whatever their SATA spec, can source data off the spinning platters no faster than about 125MBytes/sec.
SATA 3 is rated at 6G bits/sec, which theoretically is about 750 Mega Bytes/sec
SATA 2 is rated at 3G bits/sec, which is theoretically about 375 Mega Bytes/sec
SATA 1 is rated at 1.5G bits/sec, which is theoretically about 187.5 Meg Bytes/sec
None of the SATA Busses is a bottleneck for consumer Rotating drives you can buy today. Trying to speed up the SATA Bus will not provide any real-world performance increases for Rotating Drives.
