Illustrator :: Restore Custom Actions After Crash?

Jan 5, 2013

I just spent two days automating a large project with Illustrator CS6 actions. I suppose I should have expected Illustrator to crash at some point during this process but I didn't and, of course, it did. Upon starting Illustrator back up after the crash, I found that all dozen or so of my complex actions were gone.
 
I did a bit of googling and it seems that AI doesn't save these to disk anywhere; rather it just keeps them in memory until they're explicitly saved. That is, creating an action doesn't seem to actually store it anywhere.

Photoshop :: New Key Commands / Conflict Custom Actions

Sep 25, 2013

I loaded my legacy actions to Photoshop CC. They worked as usual until I loaded the PShop updater today. One of my own custom actions is F5 which adds a darken only layer. F5 now deletes the currently selected layer. I have looked though the keyboard command menus, and see MANY key command options.

I still am not seeing an F5  command to delete layer. Not sure how many other key commands have been added. I can foresee some very uninted results with actions I have spec'd that may now be superseded by new key commands. There seems to be a legacy option, but the interface to all of this seems a bit complex.

Photoshop :: Lost Actions And Custom Panels?

Apr 9, 2013

(CS6 - 64 bit) Anyhow, somehow my blur gallery (Tilt-Shift, Iris and Field)  got screwed up.  Whenever I brought them up, they wouldn't work and I couldn't get out of the gallery.
 
I called tech support and after taking control of my computer, he reset my Preferences and all was well - or so I've thought.  Now I find I've lost my custom Actions and Panels.Is there a way to retreive these and other things I may have lost, or must I start from square one?

AutoCAD Print / Plot :: Crash On Custom Properties

Apr 12, 2013

When I try to modify the custom properties for the HP t2300, Autocad C3D 2011 instantly becomes non-responsive and hangs.  After a few seconds, every other open app suffers the same fate.  If I have task manager open to the performance tab, I can see memory use escalating rapidly.  Either I use Taskmanager to kill Acad quickly, or I end up killing the power to the computer and restarting the hard way,

the plotter is set up on the network with separate queues for Postscript and HPGL.  Accessing the PC3 for the PS queues has no problem, it's only the HPGL queue that hangs me up, and only in C3D 2011 (and Civil3d as AutoCAD)

LDT and LDC Map 2009 do not have the problem,. nor does Map3d 2011, and TrueView 2013 is also fine.  All of these are pointing to the same set of PC3, PMP, and CTB files.Other applications do not have any problem getting to the printer properties, just Civil3d 2011..

Photoshop Elements :: Couldn't Restore File In Restore Catalog

Oct 8, 2012

I have a new computer and want to move the databse catalog over. I backed up in PSE 9 to an external hard drive. I connected to HD to the new computer and tried a resotre catalog. I chose "New Location" since I was going from XP to Windows 7 and was unsure if there would be a conflict with file locations. I also chose "Restore Original Floder Strucure". Very quickly I recieve an error message "Could not restor file .xml". I have run Restore Catalog several times and each time a DIFFERENT FILE receives the error message. I then disabled Norton Anti Virus Auto-Protect. I then disabled several programs running in the background. Same problem. I then copied the Backup Catalog to the new computer and tried to Restore it from there. Same Problem. I have now run a Repair Catalog on the original file. PSE states there is no error. I want to purchas PSE 11, but wanted to install/restore the database with the same version 9 first.

Illustrator :: How To Save Custom Artboard Setup With Custom Document Profile

Nov 1, 2012

Is there a way to save a custom artboard setup with a custom document profile in illustrator cs5? I do technical illustrations and our page size is odd (7.19 x 8.96. It the size that our Framemaker layout is set to.). I have a custom document profile that I use, but I use the grids all the time so that my callouts are spaced out evenly around the art. I would like to have a way to set the artboard up so that the grid will align to the center of the artboard everytime I turn them on. Right now they always start from the top left and when I center art in the center of the page, the grid spacing isn't the same on each side of the art. I just want to be able to open my document profile, turn on my grids, have them start from the center, and I can get down to business. As it is now I have to go into my artboard settings and manually adjust the grid to the center. Small annoyance, but it still annoys me. I have tried to save it a few different ways, but nothing has worked. Maybe there just isn't a way.

Illustrator :: Actions Not Working From CS6 To CS5

Dec 20, 2012

I use a series of actions that were created in CS6 and are not that complicated. They resize and align an object to coordinates with the center reference point and proportions constrained. I assumed that they would translate to other coworker’s machines with cs5 and cs5.5, but they do not work. The actions appear to load properly, but do not run like they should.
 
When I hit the assigned hotkey, the selected object moves, but not to the correct location and does not change size as it is supposed to. Also, I can try to manually play individual parts of the action (moving to a reference point or resizing to a certain width) and nothing happens. Not even a wiggle. When I do try to do them one at a time, the small downward triangle button that reveals details of the action disappears and when I click again I get an error message that says 'the object "transform panel" is not available.' I assume this means that action is looking for a location that has changed name or something, but I don't know how they work well enough to spot any differences when viewing the action with a text editor.
 
All of the computers I tried had win7. Mine is CS6 (v 16.0.2 64-bit), 2 others had CS5 and 5.5.

Illustrator :: Actions Do Not Work In CS6?

Oct 4, 2013

Ever since I upgraded to CS6 (3 months ago) I am having crashes all the time with actions.
 
I have tried to remake the actions, reinstall Illustrator, disable font embedding, nothing works. I have posted the crash to Adobe many times but no fix, obviously.
 
Seems to be the saving that crashes Illustrator.

Illustrator :: Actions Are Broken In CC

Oct 10, 2013

Since upgrading to Illustrator CC, my actions haven't been working right. All the details from certain steps are completely gone. For example, if a step involved rotating the selection by 90°, the "Rotate" step will still be there, but there is no longer a disclosure arrow next to it with the value of 90°. Also, the Fkey that was previously bound to the action has been removed.
 
I have another action that selects all shapes with a similar fill and stroke, and the "Select Similar" step is still there, but again, the disclosure arrow is gone that included the information of "Fill & Stroke". Also, the Fkey associated with that action is gone as well.
 
When I restore my actions from a saved copy, they are retained from file to file, but once I quit Illustrator and reopen it, the actions break again.

Illustrator :: F Keys Cause Actions To Double Up In  CS6

May 24, 2013

Pressing an F key in CS6 to call an action seems to cause the application to "double up" the action.
 
At first it was not obvious what was happening, as some shorter/simpler actions run so quickly that it just appeared to be a malfunction with various commands.
 
This happens with actions recorded in other versions, as well as those created directly in CS6. Running the action in button mode or by hitting the play button in the Actions pane do not cause this doubling. Only with F keys.
 
We've been able to work around this by inserting stops via the action menu.

Illustrator :: Actions Repeating With Function Key

Jan 24, 2013

Illustrator CS6 (16.0.3) on Mac OS 10.6.8.

I've set up an action that will add crop marks to a selected object.  The action works great when clicking the play button on the panel, but when I assign a Function Key to the action, it runs the action twice (giving me 2 set of crop marks).  I've tried different Function Keys thinking it was a keyboard shortcut conflict, but that has made no difference.

Illustrator :: CS5 15.0.2 Crash When Save For Web And Devices (Mac)

Jan 13, 2011

When Saving for Web and Devices in Illustrator CS5 (15.0.2), the application now freezes and has to be force quit.
 
HOWEVER if I delete the Users/~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings/en_GB folder all works well until I quit the application, then the freeze will happen again. I created a new user and all was fine for that user so I transferred everything across... a laborious task.
 
what has triggered this AGAIN?...
 
Running:
Mac OS X 10.6.6
Mac Pro tower.
  
Note:
have uninstalled, reinstalled, updated 15.0.1 - 15.0.2
have deleted all font caches
have deleted everything... that could be related...
 
HOWEVER have narrowed it down to the 'Adobe Illustrator Prefs' file in the Users/~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings/en_GB folder too note this is not the folder permissions issue, am aware of that and have thoroughly checked all permissions, ran disk utility and disk warrior.

Photoshop :: Actions Stopped Working After Downloading More Actions

Aug 31, 2004

I downloaded a couple of actions from the web to my actions palette and they worked fine, but then I got greedy and downloaded a few more and that’s when things went south. Now none of the actions work - by not working I mean when I mouse over the Play Selection icon at the bottom of the action palette I get that little circle with a line through it. This happens with the PS default actions as well (I also get the circle on the Stop Playing/Recording and Begin Recording icons).

Somewhere in the following is probably what messed things up.

I downloaded actions to my computer in zip files. Copied them over to the actions folder (or somewhere) and unzipped them. I went back to the actions palette and hit “load actions” and loaded them. On the second set of actions that I downloaded I remember thinking “why am I copying and pasting these files - I bet I should cut and paste them, so I did and that may have been the start of the great crumble of 2004. PhotoShop help says: (under Saving and loading actions) “Actions are automatically saved the the Actions Palette folder in PS7.0 Settings folder. If this file is lost or removed, the actions you created are lost”.

I have searched for the settings folder and couldn’t find it, but the actions still show up on the actions palette - they just don’t run.

I’m a little fuzzy on the details on the above steps. In fact, I probably did something different on each download.

one more thing, I reloaded PhotoShop, but still nothing.
