Why does Adobe Illustrator Stop you from moving objects?

When I'm using Illustrator and I click on an object then try to drag it to it to somewhere else on the artboard using the mouse nothing happens. It just won't move unless I use the cursor arrow keys. Why is nothing happening? It's really slowing my workflow down a lot and I need to get it figured out.
All help apreciated thanks
I'm using Abobe Illustrator CS3 on Snow Leopard
The mouse is fully working as is the trackpad

Before complaining that something can't be done, a simple question of HOW to do something would be better... there IS a way to deactivate a computer you don't have access to physically

  • Why does Adobe invoice charging VAT from Ireland to Spain?

    Why does Adobe invoice charging VAT from Ireland to Spain?

    Please refer to:
    1.VAT - Adobe Ireland?
    2.I have an email receipt.  Did you charge sales tax for the downloads?
    3.Billing: German VAT 23% ???
    4.Why is Adobe's UK website charging 23% VAT on Photoshop Elements 12 ?
    5.Adobe Store | Online order and payment FAQ
    n most parts of the world, Adobe is legally required to charge sales tax according to the calculations you see when you purchase online. If Adobe doesn't charge taxes, you are sometimes still liable to pay the taxes yourself.
    Adobe is registered in many different countries for which it is responsible for charging and collecting VAT/GST. For most sales, the rate charged depends on the country from which the goods or services are delivered. In Adobe European stores, you are charged the relevant VAT rate for hard goods and services.

  • Why does adobe illustrator cs6 trial version keep uninstalling after restart?

    I have downloaded the trial version of adobe illustrator,
    I do my work turn my computer off, the next day the file has no icon and will not load when clicked upon.
    Any help with this?

    Nobody can know. you are not offering any system information or otehr details. this could be anything from system recovery to virus scanners and otehr security tools quarantining file or you not installing with sufficient user privileges in teh first place and thus changes not becoming permanent.

  • Why does Adobe Illustrator keep crashing?

    This is more of an Adobe Illustrator question, but seeing that even their support is confused, I thought I might try my luck here.
    I have a MacBook Pro and only Adobe Illustrator CC crashes expectedly. There is no warning for when it will crash. Sorry I don't have a screenshot to share. I'm really just taking a shot in the dark hoping someone has experienced this and resolved it.

    X Pro is the version that I am using.  We have 64 bit windows as well.  I updated the installation after each time I have to reinstall it but it still from time to time crashes.  Then it will not allow me to reopen any PDF documents. 

  • Why does adobe not let you manage the computers your accounts are set up with from the online service?

    ?? They expect you to deauthorize from that computer, but if you sell that computer you don't have access to it anymore. HELLO?? Anyone at Adobe try thinking that far ahead or is it done on purpose to screw the customers? I have to active creative cloud memberships but only one computer using it with 4 computers signed up with only 1 actively using it because I don't have access to the other ones to deactivate the computers creative cloud is active on. Adobe recommends reinstalling creative cloud and deactivating, but here's a newsflash, if you don't own those computers anymore YOU CANT DO IT. It is not that hard to activate and deactivate computers "FROM THE CLOUD" especially on a service called "CREATIVE CLOUD" because Microsoft and apple do it with Office 365 and any Mac product. I take it my only solution is to cancel my credit card??

  • Why does Adobe Illustrator take so long to generate previews for glows?

    I was trying out the option accessed via effects tab > stylize > outer glow on one of the images (made out of a combination of filled pen tool shapes) on my vector layer.
    This same image had previously been selected and had the 'object > live paint > make' option applied to it so that I could shade inside it.
    Anyway, when I applied the glow and opted for 'preview', every time I slid the bar on any of the three options offered it would take at least half a minute to generate the glow preview.
    Basically, a new window would come out with a loading bar (titled 'Gaussian Blur') and the loading bar would load over and over, eventually generating the desired preview, but it would take a sizeable amount of time.
    Why is this happening only in illustrator? Photoshop has a similar function, but the previews there load much faster (in the fraction of a second, can be said to be immediate, and there isn't even enough time for a loading bar to show up!) Is there any way to prevent these slow preview loading times in illustrator?

    I am afraid the answer is: Upgrade to Illustrator CS6.
    Gaussian blurs are much faster.

  • HT5361 Why does my mail stop me from restarting or shutting down my computer?

    I use monroefarquhar@**** for all my mail. Learning to use Mac i have made some type error with my mailboxes. Should i delete all mail? The problem is keeping me from turning off or restarting my computer.
    <Email Edited By Host>

    Can you quit Mail normally or do you have to force quit it? If you don't want to lose your e-mails, go to Mail/Mailboxes/Export Mailbox. You can put them on your desktop for now. I would then try deleting your account and then setting it up again.
    Who is your e-mail provider and are you using IMAP or POP?

    why does adobe premier elements render my video everytime i change something in it even when i have lots more of the video to edit? other editing software only seems to render at the start then lets you edit until your ready to save at the end.  Constant rendering means its almost impossible to edit anything. Please help.

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system is it running? It will not influence my answer but will give me information in case I need to get into version specifics to detail my answer further.
    Timeline rendering is a preview matter. It does not fix anything, but it is your window of opportunity to catch of problem sooner than latter. If the Timeline rendering indicator displays orange (11 or higher) for the line above the Timeline content, that is the project telling you that you are not getting the best possible preview of the playback of that content in the Edit area monitor. And, every time you edit a file, you have altered the file from the time before. So, if you want to see the best possible for what you now have, you Timeline render. This is particularly helpful when you are dealing with titles, effects, transitions, and non native formats. You cannot turn off the Timeline render indicator system, at least none that I have ever found nor seen reported. You can do selective Timeline rendering by having the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar span only the Timeline segment that you want Timeline rendered.
    Consequently, you either ignore the Timeline render indicator system, move on in the project, and take your chances in the outcome or you Timeline render to get your best possible preview if the Timeline render indicator is suggesting that you do so.
    I am not approving or disapproving of this project feature, just commenting on the what is.
    This is not Adobe. Rather user to user. If you want to have your voice heard at Adobe, you might consider filing an Adobe Feature Request Bug Report Form.

    Please consider.

    Add On...it is also possible to do Timeline rendering in a project, save close the project, and reopen it to find your previously "green" lined content now "orange", indicating unrendered. Yet the preview files generated originally by Timeline rendering are still existing in their hard drive save location. That is another story for other time.

  • Why does the color red change from working with images in develop to library?  The color gets lighter and nothing shows a change on histogram but visually you can see it.

    Why does the color red change from working with images in develop to library?  The color gets lighter and nothing shows a change on histogram but visually you can see it.

    That's probably a broken display profile. The conversion from Library's Adobe RGB is different than the conversion from Develop's linear ProPhoto, so if there's a problem with the display profile it can show up this way.
    Recalibrate, or if you don't have a calibrator use sRGB. If your monitor is a wide gamut model use Adobe RGB.
    Assuming Windows, change it in Control Panel > Color Management > Devices, and relaunch Lightroom so that it can pick up the new profile at startup:

    While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark?  I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed.  Can someone help me?

    It's right at an hour (consistently), but the computer goes to sleep prior to that. It's as if iTunes goes to sleep. Also, it wasn't always this way. Originally, the movies played through without interruption. At some point, I guess a setting was changed, and now I only get an hour. Also. My energy settings are set to go to sleep at 10 minutes.

  • Why does Adobe email me to say I have been removed from my CC membership (because licence was not renewed) BUT Adobe does not have the common sense to tell me my membership is DUE for renewal – so I could have renewed it – BEFORE I was cancelled.

  • Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    We relied upon the "days available for download" to get people to take
    action more quickly. The "virus scanning" progress bar was simply another
    way of knowing this activity was actually taking place - unless this is
    written somewhere in the Adobe Send User Guide.....wherever that is.

  • Why does't apple allow you to read your iBooks library over the web from a browser or me account?

    Why does't Apple allow you to read your iBooks library over the web from a browser or me account? I have time to read during the day via a browser, but not by Ipad or Iphone. I love the features that iBook offers, but I have had to settle for Google books which is slow to upgrade its features. I just want to be able to highlight, copy and past and make notes and also have the option to read a book in a browser like google books.

    Wow.. I'm almost sorry that you spent so much time writing that post.
    Unfortunately, it would have much more impact if it were true.
    Just because you don't know how to do something... that doesn't mean it can't be done.
    I do what you say can't be done every day.
    You just need to put your iPod into manual update mode, and everything will be fine. You songs won't be greyed out, and you can play them with no trouble at all.
    So, next time you need help with something, just ask for help and we'll help you. It'll certainly make yourself look less foolish this way.
    Ranting and bashing Apple for no reason isn't going to win many people over.

    Why does apple not stop these app that steal money from small children

    In the final analysis it is down to parents to use the parental control features. 
    In addition to that, parents should regularly check the nature of all downloaded apps available to their children.
