Vector file turning transparent when placing into ps

Hi,
am hoping someone can help me. I have a vector image that I am trying to place into a PS document. For some reason as soon as I click to accept the placement, the vector image becomes transparent.
It is only happening (thankfully) with this particular file so I am assuming it must be some setting in Illustrator that I am not aware of. I purchased the file from a stock image site. (sadly I am not clever enough to create my own lol).
Any ideas?

hi Manish
thanks for the quick response. Unfortunately, I can't share the file. it would be against the TOS of the stock photo site from where I purchased it.
The only way I can prevent other layers from showing through this particular file is by duplicating it. So I'm guessing that the opacity is somehow being reduced. But no idea why, and when I click on the layer it says it is at full opacity, and normal blending. The ppacity remains at full when in Illustrator, so if I put another image behind this particular file then there is no problem. It is only when moving this file into PS that it becomes see through.
Adding a couple of preview screenshots so you can see what I mean.

Illustrator vector images loses layers when placed into InDesign

I have a illustrator image that I want to paste into InDesign - I have tried pasting and placing however it appears both ways do not paste all the image elements. See below - any ideas?
Selected all and copied in Illustrator:
Then, pasted (and placed) into InDesign - missing neck, shirt

Pasting Illy artwork is for very simple drawings. Complex shapes and objects may not coming into ID exactly the way you want.
Why aren’t you placing the graphic?

IPod classic won't turn off when plugged into a home theater dock; what's up? will it hurt to leave it on all the time?

I bought a new iPod Classic and it won't turn off when plugged into a home theater dock. Is this normal and will it hurt the iPod if i leave it on all the time?

Hi there,
How old is your Classic? Often, after a couple of years, rechargable batteries begin to fail, especially after such a long period of inactivity. This happens with any gadget with this type of battery.
Try leaving it plugged in for 24 hours, and try again, to rule out that it isn't just really low on charge. If this doesn't help, it may be a good time to buy a replacement. New iPod Nanos and Touches will be released this October.
Below, I've linked to an Apple website which explains rechargable batteries, and why yours may not be working.

I hope this helps, and I hope upgrading your device will not feel like an unnecessary expense. Let me know if you have any more questions,

Images not centred when placed into InDesign CC 2014

Hello,
Since updating to InDesign CC every time I place a new image into a doc it drops down within the containing box a by a few mm. Auto fit is not on and the problem happens when placing an image via cmd + d or dragging and dropping from bridge or finder. Any ideas?

Thank you for your reply. I ditched the InDesign Defaults pref but couldn't find the InDesign SavedData file. I have uninstalled and put a fresh copy back on to my mac, this seems to have resolved the problem. I guess this was a pref file some where, I just could locate it.
Thanks for your help.

Cut out a photo in Photoshop, and when placing into Illustrator and InDesign it changes it.

We have photos that another employee cut out in photoshop, saved as a TIFF and tried to place into Illustrator. When he went to place it, the photo looks like it created a clipping mask but the image is flat.
this is what the tiff looks like in preview and photoshop.
and this is how it shows up when placed in Illustrator. It does the same thing in indesign.
I also tried saving it as a pdf and opening it in Acrobat, and it turns into the butterfly there as well. Does anyone have any clue as to what the problem would be?

Solution found:
The problem originated in photoshop. In the Paths panel, somehow a path of the butterfly was created(still haven't figured out how) and we deleted the path and the problem was fixed.

Unexplained white edge on eps when placing into Illustrator (CS6)

I'm manually stepping CS3 or CS6 generated eps files inside a master Illustrator file. The EPS looks perfect when I make it, i.e. no white edge. Also when I close and reopen the EPS then view it- no white edge. As soon as I drag or file/place the eps file into an Illustrator file, the white edge appears. This happens in CS3 or CS6. This white edge actually prints "as is". Can't get rid of it. See screen shot.

Good morning Will,
I tried placing ai files into my master imposition files this morning and all went very well. Thank you again enlightening me on importing files.
There is one file that I'm still having problems with, even using the ai import. This is the file that generated my eps white edge issue.
When I bring the masked ai file into the imposition file I get about a 1/8" white area on the left and right sides. And I noticed the file width changed from 8.75" to 8.8+. So somewhere during the placing of the file a .25" edge is being aded to my incoming ai file. I've checked my preferences and such and do not see where I could be adding white to the sides of my placed file. My masked file seems to be exact at 8.75".
Also, I tried importing other masked ai files and all did well--- no white edges. I then created a new imposition file and the white lines appeared again on the masked ai file when I placed it.
Now I think there's a problem with the original art file itself. If you could offer any help, I'd greatly appreciate it as it would help me in the future if (when) this issues arises again.
I've attached my impo file, the original art file and the masked ai file I used for placing.

PNG Renders from 3Ds Max turn pale when placed in InDesign , Why?

Hello.
When I place my renders from 3DS Max 2010 in Adobe InDesign CS6 with OS Windows 7 they become pale, even when exported as a PDF. I have tried Googling solutions but this keeps bringing up transparency settings.
I know this information is vague but I do not know what other information is needed.
Does anyone know why this is happening or a solution?
Thank you

You'll have a difficult time finding many people who place PNG files directly in InDesign.
That said, here is something you should check out. There is a setting for Applying Gamma Correction in the options when placing a PNG file. It was posted as an obscure feature in the most recent InDesignSecrets.com podcast:

Worth checking out to see if that might work.

Illustrator Files get Distorted when Distilled into PDFs

I haven't been able to find anything like this in the discussions so I will start one. The production folks are using CS3 on Leopard Macs. I am using Tiger and can still reproduce the problem, so I don't think it is the OS.
Here's what happens:
Certain .ai files placed in InDesign become distorted when the user makes a PDF either by using Acrobat Distiller or through our DALiM TWiST server. The distortion does not happen if they export to PDF, but they cannot do that since they must use the TWiST system to preflight their files and create the PDFs. The problem is likely related to the postscript stage of both of these methods of making PDFs. It does not happen to all .ai files that we use. Just some of them. It seems to be random, but with newer (CS3-created) Illustrator files as opposed to CS2 or earlier files. The current workaround is to just save the files as Illustrator eps and then they have no problem, but we are trying to get away from always using eps files.
Has anyone ever had anything like this happen?
Thanks,
Laura K.

Wow, you guys are great. Very helpful. The users who have reported this issue have already discovered the workaround of embedding the problem files. That does work. Their problem is that they don't know ahead of time which .ai files will do this. I suppose they could just embed all .ai files as they use them, but one user reports that the embedded files don't "stay" embedded. They use a droplet that was created for them where they just drop a job to be printed onto it and it will go through the TWiST workflow. It is a highly customized workflow, and we plan to have the engineer come back in and do some tweaking eventually. I think there is something in the droplet that can be altered so embedded .ai files will stay embedded. I suspect that is probably easy if you know what you are doing. :-)
But, meanwhile I was just wondering if there was maybe something we could do at the .ai file creation end to prevent the distortion from happening int he first place. The bad part is that it does not happen to all .ai files in our library, just a few of them. The same user reported a couple of years ago when we switched to InDesign that she had problems with .pdf files placed into InDesign printing properly and I think this is related to that.
Here are a couple of screenshots to illustrate what happens as far as the distortion. I have used one of our company's logo files that has been exhibiting the behavior as the example. The first screenshot (InDesignLogos) just shows the logo placed in an InDesign file as it should look. The bottom one has been embedded. The second screenshot (PDFLogos) shows the resulting PDF that was created using DALiM TWiST. Keep in mind that we also get the same result if we make a PDF using Acrobat Distiller. This is why I think it is something happening in the postscript file. I wish we could just export the PDF from InDesign because that takes care of the problem, but it is not an option with the TWiST workflow. The Illustrator file says it was created on Oct 26, 2009, saved as v.13 Created by v.13.02, if that helps.
Thanks for all of your help and good suggestions so far!

IPhone only turns on when plugged into wall

Hello, I have an iPhone 4 CDMA and it only works when in is plugged into the wall. It does not work properly anyother time. When I plug it into the computer it goes through the Boot Loop. When I put it into DFU mode and recovery mode and try to restore it in iTunes it doesn't restore and just gives me a bunch of different error codes. The most common error codes are 2001, 2006, or 1604. It use to give me Error 21 but I fixed that by editing the hosts files. I have tried six different computers and seven different iPhone cables on the computers and I still get the same error codes every time. It does not work if it is not plugged in. I have replaced the dock connector/charging port and the battery. I bought it used and think it may have been jailbroken at on time. It has not been jailbroken in the time I have had it. I have also tried Tinyumbrella and that did not work. What could be wrong with it?

Hello! When it turns off, do you notice if it drains quickly or does it just shut off even with full battery? Because this can also be caused by battery problems. Your iPhone may not be turning on even when plugged into a computer because a wall outlet charger gives off more power than a computer does.
I suggest you bring your phone to an Apple store right away. They could at least help you determine the problem, and by then, you can decide what to do with your iPhone - you can have it repaired (if they say it's still fixable), you can have it replaced with a refurbished iPhone, or you can buy a new phone completely.

How do I restore my iPod Touch that only turns on when plugged into the wall?

I found my old iPod Touch 4th generation in my backpack, and my backpack went through the wash, (It shouldn't of been too bad since it was in the side pocket) but it goes dead instantly as soon as I take it out of the wall charger, and it does not turn on when I plug it into my computer. It also has a pass, (That I forget) so I need to restore it. Is it possible to restore it without connecting it to a computer?

No. You have to connect the iPod to a computer with iTunes to restore the iPod.
Did you throughly dry the iPod before you started try to use it?

IPod very low on battery and now won't turn on when plugged into PC

I haven't used my iPod for a few weeks, so now the battery is obviously completely empty. The problem is that it won't turn on when I plug it into my PC to charge, even after half an hour or longer. Is there something I can do, or do I need to get a completely new battery put in?
iPod nano

If you are unable to give specifics about the problem or what you need to do, it's going to be rather hard to give you recommendations or alternate suggestions.
As I said, if I recall correctly, the iPod will stay on if it's being charged. But, in case I'm misremembering, are you holding down the button until you see the red arrow that says "Slide to power off"? Have you tried restoring it?

My ipod nano 6th gen will only turn on when plugged into a power source.

My ipod nano 6th gen ONLY turns on when it is plugged into a power source. As soon as I unplug it, it turns off. I also tried to reset it and it did not help. Any suggestions?

Howdy mela1223,
If I understand correctly your iPod will not stay on unless you have the charger plugged in even after resetting it. Normally this would indicate a hardware issue that would need a repair but to cover all the bases before that, the last troubleshooting that can be done for it would be to restore it with iTunes on a computer.
Restoring iPod to factory settings - Apple Support
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

I replaced battery and now will only turn on when plugged into a charger..

I replaced my batter on my iphone 3gs and then it will only turn on when i connect it to a power source.
After it has turned on you can take it off charge and it will stay on...
Help please!! thanks

Either you got a bad battery, didn't install it correctly, did some other damage while installing, or haven't let it charge enough yet. There's really nothing we can do to help you with any of those scenarios.
Regards.

D20 turns on when plugged into mains

hello, I have bought a used lenovo d20 workstation, when plugged into the mains it automaticly starts up (without pushing the power button) and shuts down after 20-30 seconds, is that a power supply fault ?Anyone else experienced this ? thanks

That is the normal for this unit. If you look at the back of the power supply you will see a LED right under the power plug input. If that light is green the the system is letting you know that the Power Supply is operating as it should. If it is red then you have a faulty power supply. The system does that short power cycle to test the powersupply. Thats all it isMike

My iPhone will not charge and will only turn on when plugged into adapter.

I have tried to reset and nothing. It turns off if I unplug it and will only turn on when plugged in. The charge has not moved above 19% even though I let it charge for 3 hours while I was out. What do I do?
