Why does placing links in Illustrator now change the "Date Modified" data for all of my files?

This seems to be a new glitch that started after I installed the latest updates to Illustrator CC (2014) and reoccurs every time on both computers I work on:
When I choose to place a new image in my Illustrator file and the window opens to let me choose a file to place, the "Date Modified" field of all the files in the folder I'm viewing (except other Illustrator files) quickly changes to the current date and time. This is definitely happening when I'm in Illustrator because when I needed files from a folder that had hundreds of images in it and I was able to select a file quickly, I was able to do so before it had changed the date on all of my files. However, when I needed a file from a folder that had hundreds of images in it but I took a long time to find the image I needed, Illustrator had time to change the date modified on all of my files. This might seem like an unimportant issue because it doesn't actually seem to modify or damage any of my files, but having all of the dates change on my files is a serious problem for my workflow and file management issues. So far, my only work around has been to use back-up image files, but that's not a long term solution and I don't understand why Illustrator should be modifying the dates of my files.
Is there a setting I can choose somewhere to prevent this problem? If not, is there somewhere I can report this kind of glitch? I'm not sure if I'm using the exact language necessary to get the issue across so please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks!

iCloud is not compatible with Snow Leopard, that is your problem.
A quick way out is to purchase Soho Organizer which is compatible, even when running on Snow Leopard, it will correctly handle Contacts and Calendars from iCloud. $100, 2 user license.

  • Why does dragging on a Touch Screen change the cursor into a Hand Tool?

    Why does dragging on a Touch Screen change the cursor into a Hand Tool? This did not happen in CS 5.5 and I could edit on my touch screen monitor. With Photoshop CS 6, as soon as I start to drag, the cursor changes to a hand cursor. I have look at all of the system options and nothing seems to affect it so I have to assume it is something wrong with Photoshop CS 6.

    Try staying with it for a while.  It is much nicer panning that way.  Give it a flick, and touch the screen again when in the right position. 
    I think it came in with CS4 BTW, but it makes a lot of sense keeping it on the Touch version.

  • HT2470 Why does this not explain how to change the sort order?

    Why does this (i.e. support at Apple.com) not explain how to change the sort order? I can "arrange" by Date Modified for example but it won't let me switch to use most recent dates first. Also, what is Apple-speak for arrange versus sort anyway? It seems I used to be able to click on a column heading in finder and get a drop down arrow allowing me to change the sort sequence.

    Arrange roughly translates to "group the items in the folder." Sort is how each group is ordered. If you have arrange set to none, you can sort by anything. However, there is no way in the Arrange/Sort menu to choose the direction. The only way to do that is in the List View, and you must have Arrangement set to None.
    I've submitted an Enhancement Request to allow choosing sort direction from the Arrange/Sort menu, but I haven't ever gotten a response, which is good and bad. Good because they will often respond that they have considered it and don't plan on implementing. Bad in that they've haven't implemented it.

  • Why does it take an eternity to change the name of a Title in my iTunes movie library?

    When I goof up and put a movie into my iTunes library with an error in the name, I click on the name and change it.  My spinning wheel starts up and just goes and goes and goes.  All I did was change the title of a movie; this should be simple.  Why does that take an eternity?  It happened in Snow Leopard and it happens in Lion.

    When you change a tag, iTunes needs to rewrite the file back to the disc.
    If the file is a 4MB MP3 it only takes a second, but with a large movie file it can take a while.

  • Why does my LG Cosmos 2 calendar change the start time to the same as the end time?

    This does not happen all the time but often enough to be a pain.  When I enter a new appointment in the calendar sometimes the phone changes the start time to what I entered as the end time.  I thought maybe it was me but it happened twice today and I watched carefully to make sure I was entering it correctly.  I was and it is the phone making the change.  How do I fix this?

    Hi AyaniB
    It's been doing it for some time. It seems to be random in occurrence. The day I made the post it happened three times. Since then I have been watching carefully and it does not seem to have happened again. Am I missing any phone updates or anything? How do I check that?
    Thanks for your help.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration or updating your video drivers to see if that helps.

  • How do I change the owner's name for all Apple/iTunes/iCloud applications?

    The name for my iPhone device and all Apple related things I log into, the owner name is my father's name -- however, since it is my device and my phone and I use all relating applications, I would like for it to be underneath my name. How do I change the overall name for my entire Apple account?

    Go to system preferences and the sharing tab, then change the "computer name".
    That's not a problem for anything.
    If you had links from the other computer in the name.local format, you'll just need to update them.

  • Temporarily changing the "open with" app for a batch of files

    I've written a number of scripts which have been saved as application bundles. One of the resource folders (named "Image Files") contains all the image files used in the script -- but the image files may have a variety of default applications for opening.
    I'm working on a separate script to facilitate editing the application bundles if and as necessary, and editing the image files is part of that. I need the option of opening the image files with an application other than the file's default application -- for example, I might want to open the image files with Photoshop.
    In my editing script I can easily enough get a list of the image files. But to open them with, say, Photoshop, I find that I have to use a Photoshop tell block and the full path to each file as it is called (otherwise it opens with its default application). If there are hundreds of image files, that's a lot of work!
    I'm seeking a "global" command that will tell all files in folder "Image Files" to open with app "Photoshop" (just in this script, as I don't want to change the defaults).
    Possible?

    I probably didn't explain my requirements thoroughly
    Your suggestion:
    "You mean like:
    tell application "Finder"
    open every file of folder "Macintosh HD:path:to:Image Files" using "Macintosh HD:Applications:PhotoShop.app"
    end tell"
    isn't quite it.
    (For one thing, that has the somewhat alarming result of opening all the image files in the folder simultaneously, and there may be hundreds.)
    In plain English, what I had in mind was more like:
    "Set the 'open with' application of every file in folder 'Macintosh HD:path:to:Image Files' to Adobe Photoshop.app"
    such that, if I were to have those files in a list, and were to open them one at a time, they'd open with Photoshop without further instruction -- this without affecting the default applications (or 'open with' applications) of the files from which those files were duplicated (assuming that there are such 'original' files).
    Since this still may be unclear, here's another explanation:
    • Say I have ten .jpg files on the desktop, all set to 'open with' Preview.
    • I duplicate those ten files to the Image Files folder of the application bundle.
    • If I open any one of those files at the desktop, I want it to open in Preview.
    • But if I open any one of those files in the Image Files folder, I want it to open in Photoshop. (The
    files in the Image Files folder could each have its 'open with' application reset manually, but
    with hundreds of files I'd much prefer AS to do that. As far as I can tell, doing that -- manually
    or with AS -- would result in different 'open with' settings for a file on the desktop and the
    corresponding file in the Image Files folder, which is basically what I'm after.
    Can I get AS to do this?

  • How to change the java cup icon for all the JFrames?

    Hi,
    I would like to know if I can change the Java cup defult icon that appears in the upper left corner of the JFrames in one time, instead of setting the JFrame's icon in every created JFrame.
    Regards,
    Gabriel

    Then don't set the parent to null. If you don't want a parent, just set it to
    JOptionPane.showMessage(new IconFrame(), ...
    [\code]
    where IconFrame extends JFrame and sets the icon in it's constructor.  The optionpane will then use the icon from it's parent frame.

  • Change the Releated Integration Server for all Business Systems

    Hello,
    follow Scenario:
    We export the SLD entries from a Development System in a file.
    Now we want to import the Entries in our Prod.-System, and we
    have to assign (or change) to other Related Integration Server.
    e.g. the esported Business System has in Development the
    Related Integration Server D12, but in the Productive System we
    need P12.
    Is there a other possibility as  to change first things first.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Stephan,
    I think this is not the correct approach because development and productive systems are different. You must register your technical systems by means of RZ70 transactions. If you have two different landscapes (DEV, PROD) you must register on two SLD servers.

  • Why Does Dynamic Link Not Work

    I purchased the CS5 Adobe Production Premium.  I have been working in Premiere and I have been learning about how to use Dynamic Link. I want to be able to alter clips in After Effects and bring them back and forth into Premiere.  When I go to File/ Adobe Dynamic Link/New After Effect Composition, I get this message:
    Adobe Dynamic Link Requires Adobe Production Premium.
    Since I own production premium, I do not know why I am getting this message.  I have reinstalled the CS5 Production Premium Software twice and it still gives me the same message.  What can I do to get Dynamic Link Working.

    Thank you for the tip.  Could you possibly tell me how to deactivate and
    then reactivate the suite.  I am using a Macbook Pro laptop running OS
    10.6.4.  I do not even know where to start.

    Deactivate the software (not uninstall), and then reactivate the suite.
    This often fixes this. You can opt to leave the serial number on the
    system; no need to clear it and re-enter it.
