Unknown Error while Trying to save

Hi,
I'm running Illustrator 3 on Windows Vista 32-bit. Every time I try to save a file, either with "Save" or with "Save As" Illustrator gives me an "Unknown Error Message" and does not save the file. I've found a few work arounds for it, but it is becoming increasingly frustrating when I can't even save my initial work while working on an animation project. This problem did not start out after the initial install. It would do it from time to time, like say, every 10 saves or so, but it has worsened over time and I am unable to save anything at all. I can export in a few file formats, such as SWF, but nothing that will let me simply save the image like PNG or DWG. Is there anything I can other than re-install the program? I've done that once before, which simple seems to reset the cycle back to every 10 saves. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Well it says Windows compatable right on the CS3 Master Collection box. Perhaps I'm making a mistake by calling it Illustrator 3, under file name the full title is "Adode Illustrator CS3"
Here's a screen cap if you'd like to see for yourself.

Now that thats out of the way, any idea what is causing this?

  • Illustrator CS3 "Unknown Error" while trying to save (Win Vista)

    When ever I try to save my Illustrator file on my home computer, a Vista machine, I get an error that says "Unknown Error." When I save from school on XP computers I don't have this problem. However. While this is inconvenient it isn't the core problem, from school I was able to successfully save to a PDF however when I took my project to get printed, the PDF file came up blank both on screen and on paper, while the Illustrator CS2 and CS3 version were visible on screen they did not materialize on paper.
    Can anyone help me work through these issues?
    Thanks,
    Sam

  • Error while trying to save layout:Console layout (Access is denied)

    Got an error while trying to save changes made in the layout,
    The error message is
    1) 'Preference.properties' (Access is denied), In the details button 'java.io.FileNotFoundException...'
    2) and on continuing futher, another message displayed is - 'Error while trying to save layout:Console layout (Access is denied)
    There is no Oracle Error Number associated with this message. It is a Oracle Warehouse Builder Error
    I have checked that
    1) this file exist in owb home/owb/bin/admin/Preference.properties
    2) It is not read only
    3) tried to set a parameter REPOS_DB_VERSION_ALLOWED=Oracle 10g
    as specified in the Installation and Admin Guide
    Please can you help?

    Also, not that you shouldn't get to the bottom of this, but you should be aware that any of your development or mapping changes are likely still being saved to the respository.
    In other words, you could continue working and just ignore these errors. We ran into this situation (it was indeed simply file permissions on the owb directories), but we noticed right away that at least our actual OWB work was in fact still being committed to the respository every time.

  • 'Unknown Error' when trying to save files from CS under Leopard

    We recently upgraded to Leopard, and reinstalled our CS apps. Photoshop and InDesign work fine. Illustrator, however gives us an 'An Unknown Error has Occurred' when trying to save any file. After dismissing the alert, a window pops up, informing us that, 'Can't save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file couldn't be found. ID=-43.' This happens when trying to save a new file, or an existing file, when saving with PDF preview is checked, or unchecked. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I deleted preferences on both machines. The Intel seems to be cured. All file formats save, printing, and importing are functioning normally.
    The G5 however is only modestly improved. I can now at least create and save files. Printing also functions. However if I attempt to use the template dialog box or to import (place) a file the dialogs crash the application.
    My suspect is a corrupt font, but until I have time to track down which one it is, I'll have to limp along as is...

  • Unknown Error while trying to log in

    While I was attempting to authorize my computer to play music, and even to just log on to my account, I got a message that read "We could not complete your iTunes store request. An unknown error occurred (-9808). There was an error in iTunes store. Please try again later." Anyone else gotten this message, or know how to fix it?

    Welcome to AD!
    The top 3 fixes to itunes error 9808 seem to be
    1) Go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced, make sure that SSL 3.0 is checked and TLS 1.0 is checked. Also under Security make sure that the “Check for server certificate revocation (requires restart)” is unchecked. Then click ok and fire up iTunes.
    2) The culprit may be Norton. Go to Norton’s Personal Firewall and add the program “iTunes Helper.exe” and set the option to “Allowed” (”iTunes.exe should already be in the Allowed category.)
    3) close iTunes if you have it open right now. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Local Settings/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes.
    Delete or cut the preferences.xml file which contains your iTunes preferences.
    Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes and delete or move the preferences.xml file.
    Restart iTunes and it will recreate those two (or one) files with the default settings.

  • Unknown error while trying to print PDF

    I keep getting an unknown error when I try to print a PDF. The message is "Printing Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem" followed by a note pad popping up filled with this: 
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    %%[ Error: ioerror; OffendingCommand: readstring ]%%
    Stack:
    (› PoÈsKÖn µÐY5Âê2¢ ÷Fmø-êíöYJ
    øR½=Ö¤%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
    I the service chat pointed me at this link: Error "...The Adobe Print Engine has failed..." | Print | InDesign |CS, CS2, CS3 but none of those solutions solved the issue.
    What I have tried:
    Restarting the program and computer
    Renaming the file
    Going into the program setting as the link suggests
    In the meantime I will use the PDF presets to make PDFs.

    Presumably you have a good reason for wanting to print PDF instead of exporting? For troubleshooting tips, see Adobe Community: File Crashing on Output - printing/PDF/other

    We are designing a plsql application, that is able to call an external application's webservice APIs. We have created an oracle wallet for this, where we have successfully imported the corrrect security certificate issued by the API provider.
    All we are trying to do is to call one of the methods (LOGIN), which should login the provided user into the application and should return a valid session id. For this, I have a function, http_request, which first establishes the request to the URI. The code is failing at this call, with following error:

    Please note that user name and passwords used for the above test have been tested to be correct. When I login to web interface of the URL, these values work fine.
    Any help is appreciated as I am close to hitting the wall on this!

  • Skipped or bad frames causes "Unknown error" while trying to fuse or export as...

    Hi. So, I'm trying to fuse footage from my Canon xf305 -to- an H.264 Youtube HD 29.97. I've successfully done this many times before, but this, one, particular clip has some problems. WithIn the roughly 10 minutes of this clip there are 4 small sections that the footage (video portion) seems to stall onto a still frame. This lasts literally for mabe 5 frames or so, and then the video continues. other than that the clip plays fine on the timeline, It's almost undetectable, but when I try and export out to any other format, Premiere gives me an "Unknown Error" about halfway through the export/fuse.  What's Up With That?
    I's there a way to "Force" Primiere to ignore those bad frames and export as best as possible?
    Thanks in Advance for any answeres.   Rich

    First thing I'd recommend is deleting the Cache files.  Go to Edit>Preferences>Media... and take note of their location on the hard drive.  Then close down PP and use Windows Explorer or Finder to delete those files.  When you reopen your project, PP will rebuild those files.
    Second thing I recommend is adding your voice to the following feature request to make this process easier.

  • Error while trying to save general setting using SWNADMIN

    Hi,
    Has anyone run into this problem before.  Using tcode SWNADMIN - I made one change in the INBOX_LINK_URL.  When I tried to save this - it came back with an error:
    Parameter: INBOX_LINK_CAPTION - message NASWN087 does not exist.  According to Help.SAP.com - this value NASWN087 is supposed to be the default value. 
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    They don't exist here (ECC6). The only NASWNs that exist are 015 016 and 152.
    I can remove all the NASWNs from the config and the texts arrive just fine.
    Something is obviously not right but I don't have the time to spend with OSS on getting to the bottom of something that somehow works even though it shouldn't.
    Edit:
    Correction: even though the texts do not exist, there is something magical about these names and individual notifications.
    With a blank entry, the single message notification reads: "New work items in your Workflow inbox".
    With nonexistent text NASWN999, the same.
    When nonexistent text NASWN071 is specified then the workitem text is the subject of the mail.
    Ho-hum.

  • Error while trying to save page edits, please help!

    Hi,
    I am using SharePoint online 365 and when I try to make an edit to a page, I am getting this error message after hitting the save button.
    I had previously attempted at deleting the two lines of text in the HTML that would allow breadcrumbs to appear again, however when that did not work, I switched back to the original master page. ( I was ONLY editing a Copy of the master page, I never made
    any changes to what was in the original file.
    We are using the Seattle master page.
    Also, I am only getting this error message on some of the pages, not all of them.  I am able to get into the page and make edits to the web parts, then when I hit the save button in the upper right hand corner, I am brought to this page. This problem is
    also being recreated on multiple different computers logged into the same account, trying to make the same changes.
    I am really new to using SharePoint and can not seem to find a solution to this myself. If anyone has any suggestions that would be greatly appreciated.
    Or if there is an option to just restore to the very original file of the master page without losing any of the document libraries and apps that I have put together then I am willing to give that a try as well!
    Thank you for any help!

    I use the java sdk to update the report database jndi alias and then save the report. While saving the report, the utility throws the following exception. It only happens to 3 reports out of more than 70 reports. What could be the problem with report that is causing this problem ?

  • Unknown error while trying to restore through iTunes

    I was switching between channels when the unit became sluggish in responding to the remote.The screen went black and the USB to iTunes icon popped up on the screen. After some time and a google search I read what I had to do… using Itunes to restore the unit. Why this happened is a mystery. However the problem I am having is this... after several attempts to download from iTunes I get the following error message after about 60 MB downloading : "There was a porblem downloading the software for Apple TV "Apple TV". An unnown error occured ( -50).
    Yes my network is working fine ( I am writing this message ) The apple TV is hooked up to my Air using the mini USB cord. And I tried the download with the unit plugged into AC power and unplugged from AC power. What else is there to do? Thanks!

        •    Check that you have correctly followed the instructions for your model of Apple TV.
        •    If not already, try using a powered USB port.
        •    Repeat the process but this time try connecting the cable while iTunes is closed.
        •    Repeat the process with another cable.
        •    Try restoring the Apple TV on another computer in another location.
