Undo undoes too many steps - help!

Can someone please explain to me how Undo works in CS4? I'll be working along, make a mistake, and when I hit CTRL-Z, I lose several steps in my process, not just the most recent one. Is there some kind of Undo setting that I can change so that it is only undoing a single step, instead of multiple? Thanks.

Thanks for replying, Ken.
Here's an example of what I'm doing: I'll create a bulleted list, bold some text, add a numbered list. Then I'm typing along, and make a mistake, so I hit CTRL-Z, and all of the things I've just listed are gone - from the typo right on back through the bulleted list. When I look at the Edit Menu, the options are for the steps previous to the ones I've mentioned. From what I can tell, when I use CTRL-Z it is undoing everything up to when I last saved.
I am using XML tagging in this document - I'm not sure if this has anything to do with... anything?
Thanks again!

    To get speech to text you need an iPhone that supports Siri. The iPhone 4S and the iPhone 5 both support Siri

  • Iphone 6 counting too many steps

    I have been trying to track my steps and I can say it is way off. Counting way too many. Its even logging steps when I am driving in the car or just sitting. Is there a calibration or a sensitivity setting. If this is the case, then this feature is useless. Anyone else seeing this?

    Yes, but mine is consistently *way* too low. It only registers ~10-25% of my actual steps.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello brams25,
    You'll need to connect your iPod Touch to your computer and iTunes in Recovery Mode and restore it.  See this article for instructions on how to place your iPod into recovery mode.

  • Adobe X, Win XP, too many steps to save PDF to file

    In the previous version of Reader, with one click I could save a PDF to file.  The path was "remembered" and the process was quick and easy.  With Reader X, I cannot use the "save" icon, but must click file>save as>PDF>My Documents>destination folder>subfolder>enter  ..... and when I am saving a dozen or more documents a day, this gets to be a royal pain in the okole.  How can I speed this up?

    Try using a different web browser. I was having this same problem when I was using Firefox, but then tried it in Opera and it worked like it was supposed to. I guess Adobe was in too much of a rush to release another product that they neglected to make sure it worked...They would get an 'F' in a software engineering course.

  • Too many pics help!

    Went to copy pics from I phone kiosk said I have 1800 pics. I have 968 in my camera roll and the same in my photo stream. Why are the pics on my phone 2 times?

    When you add a photo to the camera roll with photo stream enabled, it is automatically added to your photo stream and then streamed to all devices connected to your photo stream.  Since you phone is a device connected to your photo stream, it receives a copy of the photo too (in the my photo stream album).
    If you don't want the duplicate photo in your camera roll on your phone, you can import it to your computer and then delete it from your phone as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • Too Many Activations HELP

    I have a Sony Reader and like most new devices, it tends to lock up occasionally so it needs to be reset, removing all information from it, including DE activations.
    I have been able to reauthorize till now with no problems. But today I am on number 5 activation and it won't do it. I get the E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS error message.
    I have called Technical support in UK and they have no idea how to resolve this. A case has been opened #180428658
    Quite frankly this is not good enough. I now have a non authorized device and lots of DE books I paid for but now can't read !!! There has to be a way to solve this, come on, it must be easy enough. Why limit the number of authorizations? People need to reset devices so this will always be an issue unless you resolve it quickly.
    I now refuse to buy any more DE books, why bother if your DE locks me out fo them? Money down the drain, so I will not purchase any more DE books.
    I have seen the 'workaround' where you create a new account on XP, but I don;t see how this is good enough. Plus all my books are stored on my normal account, so how would I get this to work? I guess you'd want me to transfer all my books to the new user account on XP. This really is not a solution at all. I need to use my usual XP account, I have everything stored on there.
    This matter needs to be urgently addressed. I have paid good money to buy eBooks for my Sony Reader and now I can't read them due to a software glitch in DE........and you have no solution. I can see this issue was raised back in August, yet you STILL have no solution!? Not good at all.
    I will not be wasting any more money on DE books until you can solve this and get it to stay solved.
    I sincerely hope that you can at least try and resolve this issue urgently, please

    Try Adobe Live Chat: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html
    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.

  • TS3320 "Could not open the page, too many http redirects HELP!!

    When i click on a movie on the itunes app it says it cannot open because of too many http redirects.  How do i fix this?

    Read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data.
    Quit iTunes if it’s running.
    Step 1
    Hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (either may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.iTunes
    Caches/QCCompositionRepository-com.apple.iTunes.cache
    Saved Application State/com.apple.iTunes.savedState
    Leave the Library folder open. Try iTunes again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
    Step 2
    If you still have problems, quit iTunes again. Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
    iTunes
    Note: you are not moving the iTunes application. You’re moving a folder named “iTunes.”
    Test. If iTunes now works, delete the iTunes folder on the Desktop. Otherwise, quit iTunes again. Put back the folder you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place, and continue.
    Step 3
    In the Preferences subfolder, there may be several files having names that begin with either of the following strings:
    com.apple.iTunes
    com.apple.mobile.iTunes
    Move them all to the Desktop.
    Also in the Preferences folder, there's a subfolder named "ByHost". Open it and do the same thing.
    Test again. This time iTunes should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. You may be able to put back some of the files you moved to the Desktop in this step. Relaunch and test after each one. Eventually you should find one or more that causes iTunes to malfunction. Delete those files and recreate whatever settings they contained.
    If the issue is still not resolved, quit iTunes again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were. You don’t need to replace the items you moved to the Trash. Stop here and post again.
    If you later decide that you don’t like the results of steps 2 and 3, you can undo them completely by quitting iTunes and restoring the items you deleted in those steps from your backup.

  • HT2478 Too many pictures in screensaver folder - can't change it - help?

    I loaded too many pictures inside a folder for screensaver and now I can't seem to select another folder.  It stops responding when I try to change.  Help?

    Ok.  Maybe we are not being clear.
    a) the home (user library) optionkey>finder>go>library>screen savers is empty.
    Apparently you do not have any custom savesavers.
    b) the HD>library>screensaver folder is empty (same as above?)
    Not the same.  HD is system (what the system uses to run your comp or system files you have transferred from another computer). 
    Home (user Library) are files that you personally use.
    As for the screensaver folder being empty, that's ok.
    c) the HD>system>library>screensaver folder has lots of saver files in it (althought they all look to correspond with savers that are not slideshows, e.g., Flurry)
    I've never moved any of these files and can't think how I would have ever done this accidentally.  Maybe this is too technical.
    You seem to be ok as far as your screensaver mappings.
    Can you give me a file to search for - maybe I can locate e.g., the Ken Burns photo slideshow screen saver.
    Ken Burns slideshow is part of iPhoto.  However, to actually find it takes a lot of legwork.

    Although I am not new to Macs, I am new to Mountain Lion. I depend on a book called, OS X Mountain Lion: The Missing Manual - David Pogue .  This book is very easy reading, non technical & non geeky.  I strongly recommend this book as it takes you step-by-step through Mountain Lion.

  • Insert ORA-00913: too many values  --  urgent help

    Hi there
    Its pretty urgent, got  stuck up....
    To avoid the undo snapshot error, I am using this procedure to migrate the smaller chunks of  huge volume of  table data into new tables. This below code works well if the columns  are very less. And this procedure is not working if the tables columns are morethan 30 columns and throwing the error   PL/SQL: ORA-00913: too many values
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE migration AS
       TYPE array_tp IS TABLE OF tranproc%ROWTYPE;
       l_array array_tp;
       CURSOR c IS
          select * from tranproc p where trunc(date)<=trunc(sysdate)-180;
       l_cnt1 NUMBER :=0;
       l_cnt2 NUMBER :=0;
       l_cnt3 NUMBER :=0;
    BEGIN
       OPEN c;
       LOOP
          FETCH c BULK COLLECT INTO l_array LIMIT 10000;
          EXIT WHEN l_array.COUNT = 0;
          l_cnt1 := c%ROWCOUNT;
          FORALL i IN 1 .. l_array.COUNT
             INSERT INTO TMP_Transpoc VALUES l_array(i);
          l_cnt2 := l_cnt2 + SQL%rowcount;
       END LOOP;
       l_cnt3 := c%ROWCOUNT;
       CLOSE c;
       END;
    16    22    PL/SQL: ORA-00913: too many values
    its falling
    line 16: INSERT INTO TMP_Transpoc VALUES l_array(i);
    Above table i.e tranproc  has around 80 columns .
    i am not pl/sql expert, kindly advise how to resolve it.. i am fine with  alternative approach, just i need a smaller chunk commit.

    Actually, Direct Path does not necessarily require NOLOGGING. If you successfully invoke Direct Path (look for LOAD AS SELECT or DIRECT LOAD INTO in the execution plan) then you are inserting into blocks above the high-water mark (HWM) and there is virtually no UNDO generated for the changes in the table segment.
    However, the index maintenance (if any) will require UNDO, and it may be a lot. If this is going into a new table, then you should be able to create the index after the table is populated.
    Also beware of the NOLOGGING advice. In many cases, an individual SQL statement can not disable logging. And yet, if you do bypass REDO logging, be very sure you understand the consequences for your ability to recover.

  • Phone is locked, too many passcode attempts. When I try to restore it won't proceed until i enter the passcode which the phone won't let me. I'm stuck. Help

    My iphone 4 is locked because my son tried to enter the wrong passcode too many times. The solution on apple support says to restore it. But when I try to restore after about 10 minutes of software update it comes up with a message that it cannot continue until you enter the passcode on the phone. But the phone  is locked and you cannot enter the passcode. I'm stuck. Help!?

    You can still bypass this but deleting all of the contents of your iPhone, but of you previously backed up from iCloud or iTunes you can recover te files as it used to be,
    You have to download a copy of iOS software you wish to recover to, you can get from google by typing it, iOS 5.1.1 iPhone 4 etc and find links, once downloaded. it should be IPSW file,
    Turn your iPhone into "DFU" mode by holding sleep/wake button and home button at the same time, you can get tutorials from google or YouTube.
    once done connect to iTunes, note this is the important step, before attempting to recover you should hold "shift-key" at the same time click check for updates or recover, from if it doesn't detect the file here's a link on how to do it, but this link is iOS 4.3 the difference is you will use iOS 5 or later. http://techie-buzz.com/how-to/how-to-update-ios-4-3-itunes-manually.html
    after updating or restoring,
    Congrats you bypassed your password and now restore your back up from itunes.

    I Made a new icloud account bc forgot my username and email and now I can't access bc says I have too many accounts on phone please help!

    If the messages says the maximum number of accounts have already been created, you will not be able to create a new one on that phone.  All you can do in that case is either reuse one of the accounts previously created or create your new account on a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.
