Weird snapping issues with objects in Ai CS5...

For some reason, when I want to adjust a vectored object (expanded as well), is will only snaop to certain places.
• Smart Guides is not engaged.
• NONE of the perspective grid is activated.
• NONE of the snap-to's are activated.
But for the life of me, things keep snapping to some weird invisible point.
Also, some overlapping objects, when I use the divide pathfinder tool, they divide all wonky.
ANYBODY? I'm dying, here!

Was the original from a Web new document profile? If so, turn off Align to Pixel Grid in the Transform panel.

  • Having issues with Illustrator files in CS5

    I recently uninstalled CS4, needing the memory space. Now I am having issues with Illustrator CS5. When I go to open the program, i am receiving this error message: "Adobe Illustrator has detected a problem with the windows registry which needs to be corrected for Illustrator to work properly. Would you like Illustrator to correct the problem now?"    so i click "yes" and the program opens, but then when i go to open a file, the AI icon doesnt show up on any of the files, it takes forecer to open, if it even opens the file - sometime i get the message "cannot recognize file type".

    Your install never finished properly. Run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reinstall all your Adobe software from scratch with proper admin privileges and security tools turned off to prevent interference.

  • A weird installer issue with xcode

    This is a new macbookpro i bought only a few weeks ago. I installed xcode on it, then removed it due to the fact that i needed to put some really huge hd video files, which needed all the hard disk space i could muster. After moving the videos from my mbp to my external hd, i tried to install xcode again. However, xcode's mpkg won't open, no matter how many times i open it with installer. Other mpkgs and pkgs work fine. What's the problem?

    Hi rhonnywhoop, and welcome to the Dev Forum!

    There's no such thing as a weird issue with Xcode after an uninstall-install again cycle. Almost anything can go wrong and weird is the rule, not the exception. But yes, most of the strange problems show up after the installation (e.g., Xcode won't open, Xcode starts up but gcc always fails, Interface builder won't read nib files, etc., etc.). If I needed disk space for a video, I'd probably get another drive before I'd uninstall Xcode, but then I use Xcode all the time. Plus it's too late for that advice, so I'll try my best to point you in the right direction.
    A few questions:
    1) Was there any message when the mpkg failed to open? Please post any such message for us;
    2) Did you install from the DVD that came with your MacBook, or did you download a dmg from the Mac or iPhone Dev Center? If you haven't tried downloading the latest Xcode version yet, that might be worth trying;
    3) Did you uninstall from Terminal, using the command given in the Xcode doc (e.g. /Developer/"About Xcode Tools.pdf"? If not, how did you uninstall the prior Dev Tools?
    4) Is any entry made in one of your logs at the time of the failure? E.g., open Console.app (in /Applications/Utilities) and look for the most recent entries in install.log and system.log. If you find anything like that, please post it for us;
    5) Have you tried any additional cleanup besides the recommended uninstall (question 3, above)? Based on case histories in this and other forums, the most powerful trick is to rename /Developer (e.g. to /OldDev). Other tips will be found by searching on terms like "uninstall" or "clean" in this forum.
    In general, we can assume that since your previous installation was successful, the game is to restore your system to its past condition. This may seem like a no-brainer, but it might help to rule out irrelevant conditions as you try one thing after another. In fact, some developers have cleaned up by re-installing the entire system (needless to say, be sure to try restarting your system before resorting to anything that drastic!). On the other hand, some developers have reported that installing a more recent version of the Dev Tools (if any), can clean up a problem when repeated installs of the same system fail.
    I hope something above will lead you to a solution. Several other developers who regularly contribute to this forum know much more than I do about installation problems. For example, if etresoft joins this thread, be sure to follow his instructions completely and before any others.

  • Having issues with painting in Photoshop CS5, can you help?

    Hi,
    I'm having issues with painting. At the end of a brushstroke (not the stroke option), I see a little "dot" that appears, instead of a fine end. Do you know what I'm talking about, and how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    This may sound strange, but try starting your brush strokes at the top of the page.  That way the tendency is for the stylus tip to lift at the end of the stroke.  Going bottom to top tends to push the tip into the tablet.   You could also look at Brush Shape Dynamics (F5).  It looks like you have Size jitter set to pen Pressure, but set the minimum siz to 0% - if not already set so.  Then it is a matter of lots of practice, and perhaps making full use of the CS5 rotate screen feature (r) to keep your brush strokes at whatever is the optimum angle for you.

  • Weird screen issues with safari

    Hi, I just got a refurbished 15" macbook pro...not retina, but I believe it's a 2012 model.  I'm experiencing a couple weird issues with it.  So far, they seem to be exclusive to Safari, but I'm not sure yet.  Haven't been able to recreate the same problems in Chrome or other programs.  The problems are:
    1)  When filling text into a blank or box...as in a google search, or typing a facebook message, the text I am typing will often disappear or be invisible until i move the cursur to someplace else...then the text will show up.  Words at a time can be invisible.  Like I said, so far, I'm only noticing this in Safari, not Chrome, but I'll have to test with Chrome some more to know for sure.
    2)  Sometimes portion of a page will be misplaced on the screen.  For example, if I'm on Safari, and reading a news story, the left side of the page will look normal, and the right side of the page will look normal, but they won't match in the middle....I'll be seeing text from the beginning of the article one the left side, but from the end on the right side as though only part of the page is able to scroll.  Again, this is only in Safari so far. 
    Both these issues (which I assume are related) have been happening since the first day I got the computer last week and it hasn't been dropped or had anything spilled on it or anything.  I'm well within the warranty period, but this problem may be hard to recreate immediately if I bring it in to a store, so I want to check here first and see if anybody has any ideas. 
    I'm hoping this is a simple known bug with Safari that will eventually be fixed and not a problem with my new computer.  It is enough to have me second guessing my decision to go with a refurbished model, but I'm probably just paranoid.  I'd appreciate any info that anyone has.  Thanks!!!

    I could suggest a reset, but I don't believe that will do much good.
    First, I would contact your local Apple Store, should you be near one, and see if the Genius Bar can solve the problem quickly.
    Second, if they require repairs, you can use their expertise; or, you can use iPod Juice - a business that's more competitive. The latter is where I had my repairs done; email them for fees and services.

  • Weird python issues with dvbobjects.

    So, despite getting opencaster to build and install, I seem to have a strange issue with actually importing dvbojects. There are several examples:
    When initially making the modules... (This happens to all of them. None of the modules are copied)
    byte-compiling usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/dvbobjects/DVB/Loops.py to Loops.cpython-34.pyc

    Never had this issue on Ubuntu or Fedora when I ran these. How can I import these modules without having to edit them? Or whatever other solution is available?
    Thanks.

    The errors you get are pretty self explanatory:
    TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation
    There's no way you can "fix" this without editing the file. Whoever wrote that code used both tabs and spaces for indentation, when he/she should have stuck with one or the other.
    To fix it, you need to open the file in an editor and do a search/replace-all to replace all tabs with four spaces. Or you need to manually ensure that all indentations in the file are either four spaces or a single tab.

  • Issue with OBJECTS

    Hi All,
    I need a help in solving the type object issue..
    I have a package where im calling a function (with parameters id and lang_code).. im initializing the object with id and lang_code and then calling that object(where it does all the calculations and returns back the sting to the package) . Now how can i retrieve the lang_code in the object type..
    Here is the ex .
    Create or replace package abc(...)
    as
    function xyz(id number,lang_code varchar2(20) return varchar2
    is
    CurrentId number;
    ReturnString varchar2(32000);
    CurrentDocument OBJECT1;
    begin
    select Id
    into CurrentId
    from table1
    where E_Id = EID and rownum < 2;
    CurrentDocument := OBJECT1.init(CurrentId,lang_code);
    Here is the Object details
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY OBJECT1 AS
    STATIC FUNCTION init(Id NUMBER,lang_code varchar2) RETURN OBJECT1
    MEMBER PROCEDURE GetObjectAttributes IS
    CurrentDocument OBJECT1;
    Here is need to retrieve the lang_code which i initialized in the package... Please help me how i can get this...
    Thanks in advance..
    --

    One can define attributes within object and then initialise the object with whatever values against each attribute:
    function xyz(id number,lang_code varchar2) return Object1 is
        CurrentId number;
        ReturnString varchar2(32000);
        CurrentDocument OBJECT1 (xyz.id, xyz.lang_code);
        begin
          select Id
          into CurrentId
          from table1
          where E_Id = EID and rownum < 2;
          CurrentDocument := OBJECT1.init(CurrentId, lang_code);
          return CurrentDocument;
    end xyz;
    Here is the Object details
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY OBJECT1 AS
    (id number
    ,Lang_Code varchar2(20)
    ,STATIC FUNCTION init(Id NUMBER,lang_code varchar2) RETURN OBJECT1
    /You can define a function so as to return your defined object type, so you'll have the calculations done as well as the Lanugage code and id.

  • Issue with Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5 Security Update 11.5.2

    As part of my Adobe Design Premium CS5.5 suite, I have Flash CS5.5 version 11.5.1.349. It sorely needs updating per the security announcement page. Also Kaspersky IS keeps telling me it needs to be updated as a security vulnerability. I've tried everything. I download the 11.5.2 update from Adobe's security update page: www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html#flashCS55  
    After it downloads I go through WinZip to open the zip exe file. It then gives me a message saying that Adobe Application Manager may be damaged and I should update/reinstall it. I've tried that.
    I've tried opening the zip with Kaspersky security off.
    I've tried updating through the AAM. (Always says no update available).
    I've tried updating from within my Flash Pro application. (Always says no update available).
    (Windows 7, 64-bit, using 32-bit browsers)
    Really need someone's help on this, thanks.

    Just to give some ease of mind, I noticed AAM also isn't telling me about this and I am also on a lower version.
    I only use Microsoft Security Essentials (basically low interference) and I'm using flash CS5.5 with version 11.5.1.349..
    I'm on Win7 64 so I jumped over to the page and grabbed the win .zip. Ran it, installed fine. Now:
    As soon as I finished that I realized what my clients, family and friends constantly do. Do you see this screen?
    The reason why you see this is you need to extract the files from the zip file.
    Open the .zip, grab the single .exe AND the Payload folder and drag it somewhere (in the same place) on your computer. You can drag it to your desktop or anywhere you like, just make sure you grab both. Then run the AdobePatchInstaller.exe.
    It's a very common mistake. You always need to extract all the files in a .zip because WinZip and Windows Explorer let you "preview" whats inside but you should never RUN files from that preview. Extract first, then run.

  • Issues with object maintenance on development system

    How would you maintain your BW object development - backend and frontend - on BWD system after they have been transported and imported to BWQ? That is how would you prevent the last recently imported objects from getting changed for no reason at all? 
    We have a situation where we transported and imported all recently changed development from BWD to BWQ, and the objects now have been changed to something else not matching from what we had transported to BWQ. The changes were not called for per our user's requirement. In order to fix this we would have to check all obejcts from BWQ and then to correct them on BWD back to the way they were last transported.
    We are validating the data on BWQ and we would not want to redo the development again to revert back to their orginal state. We would want to ony make correction from what we last transported.
    How can this be resolved? Could we put authorizations access to certain objects based on who has developed it on BWD to control the changes on BWD and transports to BWQ? Is this how it would work?

    Really... Basis folks take things so personal. They're touchy, sensitive, and always annoying . Surely I wouldn't want to make friends with Basis folks. I'll be polite and cordial but it doesn't mean I like them. Besides they are the ones to support the developers and they must do what I say.
    Another approach to this would be to copy client BWQ to BWD.
    Those Basis folks better do some work besides complaining and find faults at others.
    It's get itchy when they start complaining. They would give me a butt cringe...

  • Ix500 scan snap issues with connectivity

    The System Profiler shows that it ain't connected via USB High-Speed Bus. Pretty strange as it did work like a charm.

  • Weird Spaces issue with display...

    I've been using Leopard since the day after release, and have had only minor issues on 2 machines. This one is funny... Every now and then on my Macbook Pro CD, the mini desktops in Spaces show up with a smaller desktop attached to the main one. It's as if Spaces thinks I have two displays for each desktop. I have never had this computer connected to an external display...
    This behavior occurs most frequently after I import video from my Canon camcorder. If I use the "detect displays" button in system preferences, the mini-view returns to normal.
    This "bug" is pretty minor, and I enjoy using Leopard... Of course, I enjoyed Tiger, too.

    Jameel, Thanks for the answer but this is a not a solution for us. We have around 40-50 webdynpro components and with mutliple views referring to this data element / domain combination. More so the context are bound to database tables / structures . 
    I hope to get a reply from Thomas on possible solution for this. I am not sure if I can open an support ticket for this issue.

  • Weird Text Issue with Gmail

    Hey all,
    I'm an avid user of Gmail - I love the massive storage space, the way it sorts messages, how messages are grouped into conversations - the whole works. A day ago, I noticed Safari was doing something odd with the text in the subjects, but thought it was just an abnormal glitch. I refreshed, and no change. I logged off and logged back on, and no change. I restarted and no change.
    Here's what I see:
    Notice the little cross and line down from the first letter of each subject. This is on every single message in my Gmail inbox and outbox too - not just my iTunes weekly emails. It does not occur on any message in my Spam folder though (grrr...)
    When I loaded up Gmail on my PC, it was perfect, so I knew something was just odd with the Mac. I thought why not try a different browser on my Mac, so I loaded up Bon Echo (the Mac specific build of Firefox). That also displayed it perfectly, as seen here:
    For plugins, I have Inquisitor and used to have ForgetMeNot. I tried removing both to solve the issue, and no luck. I've also deleted my Safari plist and cleared the cache.
    Although this is not a huge issue, I would like it sorted out. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be happy to listen and try them out.
    Thanks for your time!

    Hi yuiichi!
    The font for Safari looks a little bit bigger than the font for Firefox, so how about trying this.
    Click Safari in the menu (next to the Apple), and select Preferences. From here, click on Appearance, and set whatever font you have as the Standard Font one size smaller (so if it is 16, make it 14). I'm not positive that will work, it could be an error with Gmail rendering in Safari, but I'm pretty sure this "trick" will work. Hope it helps!

  • Weird saving issue with subforms

    I have a strange issue going on when a form is saved.
    If you open this form:
    https://acrobat.com/#d=CyR7W1v3MGBCkNI*QCCRkw
    ...and enter data into the "Hotel Reward Accounts" section, save the form, then reopen it, the data entered now shows up in the "Frequent Flyer Account" section. I've gone through this with a fine-toothed comb and cannot figure out what is causing this. Can someone take a look at it and see what I'm missing?
    Thanks so much!
    Jo

    Did you copy-and-paste the hotel name and account number from the airline name and account number?
    The bindings are duplicated.
    bene_FirstName  $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_FirstName
    bene_LastName  $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_LastName
    HotelName          $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_FirstName
    HotelAccNum      $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_LastName
    I changed the attached so HotelName and HotelAccNum use name for binding.

  • Freezing issues with Nvidia FX4000 & Premiere CS5

    Question, I'm editing a 1080p animation project in CS5, on an i7 3GHz, Win7 64bit, with Nvidia FX 4000, 15GB of RAM and about 500GBof disk space, plus an additional 800GB of scratch disk.
    I'm editing primarily 32 bit frame sequences with some effects. Less than a minute into the project and about 6 layers deep I freeze when trying to build previews (lost the Mercury Engine after layer 4) and freeze when trying to export, its like I basically get stuck. Why is this happening, it makes no sense, there's enough system resources. Would appreicate any feedback.

    You aren't the first to post that an i7 machine with nVidia card seems slow.  Search this forum for i7 and slow.  I can't recall whether anyone came across a workaround or solution.
    Have you checked your power management options?  Is it possible the processor is somehow not being brought out of low power mode?
    Do you have an alternate video card (e.g., made by ATI) you could try with it?
    By the way, make sure and close and restart Photoshop after making configuration changes, just to make sure it's using the changes.  Just checking boxes and trying things could mean that it's still using the same old settings and the results are therefore inconclusive.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 weird hangup issues with paintbrush

    Hello All,
    I've been an extremely happy user of Photoshop CS6 x64 on my windows machine since it was released. None of the existing bugs had any effect on me and i was happy as a clam.
    Until about two weeks ago. Some update was released and i downloaded and installed it.
    Now suddenly, when i'm retouching photographs, using masks and the paintbrush to fill, the mouse hangs. Often. Just gets stuck in position and i have to wait for a second or two to get it back.Also happens with the clone stamp. It's like a delay has been added to the controls. No other way to explain it.
    No other hardware of software changes on my machine at all. Just the Photoshop Update. I'm running version 13.0.1 on x64 windows. Have plenty of ram and plenty of CPU.
    Anyone else experiencing this, with the latest update in particular? The paint brush, clone tool and healing brush controls used to be much more responsive.

    Brendan Stewart wrote:
    i mean creating a layer mask and painting it back in with the paintbrush.
    Yes that is normal.  I have no problem with CS6, No lag or hesitation.
    A tip for you if your creating the mask using a copy of a color channel. Set the brush blending mode to "Overlay" This will protect the mask Black and White areas. You will only be able yo paint in gray areas of the mask.   When areas turn 0,0,0 Black or 255,255,255 White they become protected too. Use a Wacom tablet soft brush low opacity and many strokes
