Updating pattern swatch just got harder compared to CS5

In CC (17.1) I find when I Option-drag artwork over an existing pattern swatch, the "hotspot" of the cursor has changed. Why? Instead of the hand being the hotspot, it's a little "+" sign to the right. It feels awkward and makes the update process less intuitive. Does anyone else experience this difference?

Updates to patterns will always only affect the file in which the update takes place.

  • Listening to my favorite podcast just got harder

    I love to listen to "Coast to Coast AM." If you don't know it's a late night AM radio show that focuses on the weird, conspiratorial, supernatural, and offbeat.
    I'm a paid subscriber. There is a C2C app for the iPhone that is horribly designed but works. There are also other ways to listen to C2C on my iPhone, like through Stitcher. But with apps like Stitcher you only have access to the last 7 days of C2C. Paid subscribers to C2C have to access the show through the C2C app, which is totally geared to streaming, whether by 3G or wireless, or through the website, or through iTunes.
    My problem is that I want to have archived shows on my iPhone so that when I'm in the car, regardless of my cell signal, I can listen with no problems.
    Now with iTunes 11 there is no relationship between podcasts on iTunes and the Podcasts app on my iPhone. There is no C2C program in the iTunes podcast store to subscribe to. I can still download and listen to C2C podcasts on my iMac because the feed is set up (http://rss.mac.premiereradio.net:8080/coast/podcast.xml). But I can't figure out how to sync those downloads with my iPhone, other than manually by plugging the iPhone into the iMac, which I normally don't do.
    Furthermore, it used to be when I had missing shows I could choose to download them in iTunes. For example, on Halloween they do a show called "Ghost to Ghost," where the whole show is callers with their own ghost stories. The only way for me to get those shows is to:
    Go to the C2C website
    Go to show archives, log in and download the 4 mp3s
    Drop into iTunes
    But there's the rub--in iTunes they show up in the Music library. They don't show up as podcasts. So even if I go to the trouble of syncing podcasts between my iPhone and the iMac by plugging it in, they won't sync. So now I'm faced with the choice of syncing my music manually again, instead of using iCloud.
    This whole operation worked best when I had an iPhone 3GS and the only way to sync was via USB. Then my podcasts were automatically updated with new ones, and I could make playlists to catch up on old ones. Now I don't know how to proceed.

    iTunes can only read the feed as it sees it. If there are 5 episodes correctly entered it will show five (if the podcast hasn't yet registered with it, it won't show it at all).
    It's not possible to enlarge on this unless you would like to post the URL they gave you for the iTunes store, and the URL of your feed (please include the http://).

  • Why does my screen seem to freeze? It has been happening for the past 3 days and I just got a new updated hard drive

    I just got an upgraded hard drive for my laptop about a week ago and I have nothing but Windows 7 and Adobe on it along with an AntiVirus program. It was performing very fast and then 3 days ago my internet programs started running really slow and stalling/freezing. Is there anything I can do?

    yeah i've had the same problem with screen freezing. takes a while for it to come back also. says it's not responding.

    Hi Jen.  My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse.  Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too.  Now to the problem at hand.  I have the same problem.  I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade.  Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade.  But I'm sure other factors are involved.  Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem:  What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it.  Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade.  Hope this works.   Charlie

  • Please I just got an iPad 3 and it keeps restarting itself. How do I stop this. Done hard reset and system reset.

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode.
    iPad: Unable to update or restore
    Recovery Mode Instructions
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore iPad.

  • Pattern swatch updating

    I am just learning illustrator CS6 at the moment!
    If I decide to make changes to a pattern I made, how do I make sure that it updates so when I use the pattern swatch in another file its the updated version?
    Also is there a way to select a single pattern swatch and save as an .ase rather than saving the whole swatch library?

    Updates to patterns will always only affect the file in which the update takes place.
    You can only save the contents of the panel. If you want to save only one, you have to delete all the others.

  • I just got a new hard drive and would like to find my "favorites" from a previous Firefox.

    I just got a new hard drive and had to re start Firefox but cannot find my Favorites. Are they stored somewhere that I can locate them?

    First, let's call them Bookmarks. :-)
    Do you have your old hard drive connected, or a backup of it? Your Firefox bookmarks are stored in a personal settings folder known as your Firefox profile folder. The location varies depending on whether you had Windows XP or Windows Vista/7 on the old hard drive.
    XP - C:\Documents and Settings\''username''\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    Vista/7 - C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
    Your first profile folder names contain random letter/numbers then -default, but you might find multiple profile folders. In that case, the most recently updated probably is the one you want. Look inside for a folder named bookmarkbackups.
    Let's assume you got that far and you have a number of dated files with a .json extension. You can restore those backups to your new Firefox. This article describes how (you will use the Choose File... option to get at that old file): [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]].
    Any luck?

  • Just got Prosoft drive genius 3 software, and it's telling me that the external hard drive that i am using for my time machine back up drive needs to be defragmented.  is it wise to do this or should i not??

    just got Prosoft drive genius 3 software, and it's telling me that the external hard drive that i am using for my time machine back up drive needs to be defragmented.  is it wise to do this or should i not??

    Let's hope a couple things: that you have bootable clones of your drives also; that the backup drive for TimeMachine has over 3x capacity of the data you plan and are storing. I would also switch TM backup drives so you have a 2nd.
    Fragmented free space affecting performance happens when the drive is too full which may mean there isn't enough free space for a full backup set.
    1.5TB for backing up 500GB, while WD Green 3TB is $140 and WD Black 1.5TB is, about the same price.
    I'd be worried about the integrity and directory, and whether you can afford to lose that drive. Defragging is also a very slow operation. the ideal: to just clone a drive, or start over with another drive and wait. cloning TM volumes has not been done or has it? SuperDuper hoped to but I don't think they or Bombich's CCC made it there.
    Trouble with highly fragged is when free space gets to 20% normally, 1/3 or so though for TM volumes, and finding where and a chunk of space for the file being written. Does TM use large spare image files of like 2GB?
    Best would be to ask in the TimeMachine section Snow Leopard
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.6_snow_leopard?view= discussions#/?tagSet=1009
    where there are some good FAQ and tutorials, and people that know the ins-and-outs and shortcomings.

    I have an iPod touch 4g. It's white I just got it a week ago. It had iOS 5.0.1 for default. I could get music on my iPod with syncing it from my pc. I updated it to Ios 5.1.1 from my device and now I can't sync music from my computer. It says on my pc that I have the songs that I want on my iPod but when I go into my iPod they are not there. I have already uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling as well as putting my iPod in dfu mode (hold power and home button). I need help please

    If you have not taken the iPod apart, Apple will exchange it for a refurbished one for $99. You can do it an an Apple store

    I just got my replacement phone from Warranty. The phone was on for just 2 hours and it crashed. I was told that motorola knows about this "possible" issue. I got a new sim, hard reset, If it can be done I did it. They are now sending me the same phone again. Number 3. I would hope this one doesn't crash but I rather have a different phone so I can enjoy using my account. The phone's most recent error was today. " Unfortunately, the process com.motorola.widget.circlewidget3d" has stopped. At least the error message works and it's polite. I told tech this and they could not answer my question or help me other then "let's do a hard reset" My warranty replacement is coming on Monday. Let's hope this one works. Anyone else havinbg the same problem. it says "such and such as stop working" on all sorts of stuff! Help! I want my iPhone Back!

    I just did a google search on this issue. OMG, I got a ton of videos on this or similar issues. Each one says in some way to clear the cache, reset the data, etc. Why in the world would this continue to happen and they not do a fix that resloves this without having to lose or stop what your doing. This is a very long and constant issue it seems with Android phones as there must have been pages and pages of what I now call "Unfortunately"  So I am going to pray that Verizon helps me  out and gets me away from this issue and helps me go back to iPhone or try the Samsung.

  • I just got a new MacBook Pro, and I tried to bring across my files from my last mac using time machine. After it was done copying I can't find my files anywhere but the space (about 130gb) has been used on my hard drive. Help please!!

    I just got a new MacBook Pro, and I tried to bring across my files from my last mac using time machine. After it was done copying I can't find my files anywhere but the space (about 130gb) has been used on my hard drive. Does anyone know how I can get to them? I did change my user name from 'user' while it was copying, could this have something to do with it?

    You don't want to do that by copying.
    Your best bet, by far, is to use Setup Assistant.  If your Mac is running Snow Leopard, see Using Setup Assistant on Snow Leopard or Leopard.
    If it came with Lion, it's a bit different: Using Setup Assistant on Lion

  • Question about the sensor... just got my 4s yesterday after screwing up my 3 with the laterd version update.  EVery call I have been on has either changed to speaker, called another number or ended the call or activated facetime, which I have turned off.

    Question about the sensor... just got my 4s yesterday after screwing up my 3 with the laterd version update. EVery call I have been on has either changed to speaker, called another number or ended the call or activated facetime, which I have turned off. never had this trouble with my 3...I don't even want to talk to anyone on this phone! Is the sensor bad? That is what the AT&t rep suggested.

    Restore as new... if the problem still continues then there is a hardware issue.
    If it stops after a restore as new, then the issue is with the backup the device is currently setup with.
