Using polygon tool but cannot add/subtract sides using arrows

I have been using cs4 design premium for three months.  No problems with it.  I recently bought the master collection cs4 this past week and installed it.  I did uninstall design premium cs4 first though; I just thought I should.  Well, now, I can use the programs but Illustrator will not allow me to use the polygon tool as it should.  Is there a way to trouble shoot this issue?  I cannot use the up arrows and down arrows to add or subtract sides.  I have re-installed the entire suite twice and no success with the same issue.  I need some direction...or another version of the master collection via adobe that will work correctly.  I spent too much money to not be able to make a freaking triangle.

You'll get more attention to this issue in the Illustrator forum.

    Good point BDAqua, the Escape key helps get me back to reality in Lion.
    While I've only dabbled around a little in Lion since it's release (I upgraded a 10.6 Clone to Lion on one of my FireWire Drives) now I'm currently downloading Mountain Lion (to upgrade a Clone of that Lion Clone) so that now I can continue to move forward in madness.
    P.S. Trust me, I'm not laughing.

    I upgraded my 2009 Mac to Mountain Lion yesterday but cannot add photos from my iPhoto library to contacts anymore. Drop down menu only shows "default, recent and camera" but I cannot get to iPhoto library. Help stated to choose Faces but I don't even get that far. How do I fix. Still works on iPad but not on Mac.

    When you have iPhoto and Contacts open and try to drag a picture for iPhoto to the Contacts photo frame do you get a + symbol? if not you should!  from there the the pop menu should appear and then you can select the picture and click on done

    Hi American,
    I checked you account and I found that you just have 1 seat in your Creative Cloud account. You need to add a license from the top right corner on your Team admin page.
    You can follow the article: Creative Cloud Help | Manage your Creative Cloud for teams membership which will help you to add a license in your Team account.
    Let us know if you face any troubles while doing that.
    Thanks,

    Look in your download's folder and if it's already in .app format drag it to your Applications folder. If it's a .mkg file open it and follow the on-screen directions.

  • I created a News folder but cannot add The Washington Post--I can add other Web sites

    I created a "News" folder. I cannot add "The Washington Post" to the folder. I have no trouble adding other Web pages to the folder.

    This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • I've created a hardcover book but cannot add a map box of our trip to a page. Help!!!

    I am unable to add a map box to my hardcover book creation in Aperture 3. Aperture help says some books do not offer this option but it does not tell you what books it's not available in. Any help would be appreciated.

    I found only two predefined themes that offer maps - "Journal" and "Photo Essay". Those are the two themes showing maps in the preview you can see in the theme chooser panel.

  • I have a Plusnet email account but cannot add folders to the mailbox

    I have added an IMAP Plusnet email account to my mail but when I try to add a new folder to the mailbox I get a message saying it can't be added to the server. Plusnet say it is not a problem with their system.

    Assuming that you can send and receive emails with he account and that everything else is working OK, close the mail app completely and reboot the iPad. I also assume that you are seeing the Edit button at the top of the email account window that let's you add New Mailboxes.
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app thumbnail preview window to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Linking two lists to create a Data Source but cannot add web part to page in SharePoint designer

    All;
    I created a new data source by linking two lists which created a linked Data Source. I now want to access that linked data source via insertion of a Data Source control on a web part page.
    What I find is, both DATA SOURCE and DATA VIEW are inactive and unselectable.
    Is there any way to get this functionality going?
    Thx
    Larry Pexter

    Hi Larry,
    Since it is a coding UI, we need to put cursor into appropriate place so we can insert data view web part, i.e. the coding which represents the web part in to the whole coding part.
    As I tested in my envrionment, if you put cursor between <ZoneTemplate> and </ZoneTemplate>, I cannot get the DATA view, even before </ZoneTemplate>. Please put it exactly before <ZoneTemplate>.
    If you have modify the coding, please click save and test the issue again.

  • Cannot generate a Key. Manage Account menu doesn't show up even after following Help articles. Correct username, e-mail and password. I already have a Firefox Sync Account but cannot Add a Device. No way to Sync due to no Key.

    I cannot generate a Key to Sync between two computers. Manage Account menu doesn't show under Options > Sync > Firefox Sync Setup > I already have a Firefox Sync Account > I don't have the Device with me. No Sync Key no matter how hard I tried.

    Yes I did. '''''I solved this issue last night.''''' First I had to Clear My Sync Data, then Yes I Already Have a Sync Account [enter User, Password] and only then the Key appeared in its proper field. Went to the 2nd computer and wrote down the Key after I Already Have a Sync Account. The bottleneck was to enter into Mozilla server after resetting pass and user, and then, clear data.

    2. In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it to the Trash.
    3. Move the iTunes icon to the Trash.
    4. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    5. Enter /System/Library/Extensions and click Go.
    6. Locate the file AppleMobileDevice.kext and drag it to the Trash.
    7. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    8. Enter /Library/Receipts/ and click Go.

  • Cannot add Transitions in iMovie

    Hi,
    I am a new iMovie user.
    Trying to edit my first video for YouTube, But cannot add a transition.
    If I grab a transition & try to insert it between clips, the transition 'hops' back to it's location ...what am I
    doing wrong - PLEASE HELP

    That should do - as transitions usually is just a few seconds long.
    then when iMovie behaves badly - I trash it's pref file. Use to help - else
    When iMovie doesn't work as intended this can be due to a lot of reasons
    • iMovie Pref files got corrupted - trash it/they and iMovie makes new and error free one's
    • Creating a new User-Account and log into this - forces iMovie to create all pref. files new and error free
    • Event or Project got corrupted - try to make a copy and repair
    • a codec is used that doesn't work
    • problem in iMovie Cache folder - trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist
    • version miss match of QuickTime Player / iMovie / iDVD
    • preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences
    • other hard disk problem - Repair Hard Disk (Disk Util tool - but start Mac from ext HD or DVD)
    • External hard disks - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work with Video
    ( UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most other things - but not for Video )
    • USB-flash-memories do not work
    • Net-work connected hard disks - do not work
    • iPhoto Library got problems - let iPhoto select another one or repair it. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie.
    This You do by
    _ close iPhoto
    _ on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
    _ now select all five options presented
    _ WAIT a long long time
    • free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk to low (<1Gb) - I never go under 25Gb free space for SD-Video (4-5 times more for HD)
    • external devices interferes - turn off Mac - disconnect all of them and - Start up again and re-try
    • GarageBand fix - start GB - play a few notes - Close it again and now try iMovie
    • Screen must be set to million-colors
    • Third-party plug-ins doesn't work OK
    • Run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac
    • Let Your Mac be turned on during one night. At about midnight there is a set of maintenance programs that runs and tidying up. This might help
    • Turn off Your Mac - and disconnect Mains - for about 20-30 minutes - at least this resets the FireWire port.
    • In QuickTime - DivX, 3ivx codec, Flip4Mac, Perian etc - might be problematic - temporarily move them out and re-try
    (I deleted the file "3ivxVideoCodec.component" located in Mac HD/Library/Quicktime and this resolved my issue.)
    buenrodri wrote
    I solved the problem by removing the file: 3ivxVideoCodec.component. after that, up-dated iMovie runs ok.
    Last resort: Trash all of iMovie and re-install it

  • HT1452 I have a Toshiba Canvio 1TB external hard drive on my Mac. I've used it for 4-5 months with no problems, but now cannot add to it (I use it mostly for photo storage) to it. I can still access information previously added. Ideas?

    I have a Toshiba Canvio 1TB external hard drive on my Mac. I've used it for 4-5 months with no problems, but now cannot add to it (I use it mostly for photo storage) to it. I can still access information previously added. Ideas?

    I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
    You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots.  Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
    See Pondini's page for more explanation:   What are Local Snapshots?   http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
    You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.  
    The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library.  Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.
