Came into work today to find my Illustrator CC has defaulted back to factory settings - keyboard shortcuts, workspace/panel setup, etc - all defaulted. Not only that, but the individual files I might use to revert back to my settings are gone.
Then I'm suddenly asked via a pop-up to log into my Adobe ID so as to validate my Illustrator CC. Again. Then, I find, for some reason I'm logged out of the Adobe Creative Cloud program. So I log in, hoping that'll do something.
Now I must re-do 100% of the customizations I've made to Illustrator's interface.
It seems as though the axes in my Illustrator CS4 installation are rotated. Whenever I create a new object, the new object is rotated about -5.2º. When constraining the rotation of objects, the rotation is never square to the document edge. How do I fix this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFirstly, I cant get the reset preferences window to appear, as isntructed, by holding ctrl/alt/shift down and opening the application - I just get the details of the shortcut. tried on the actual.exe file and still dont get the window as described.
secondly, the hand tool does not seem to work? I select it, the 4 options appear in the tool bar above and the little hand Icon, but clicking and dragging on the file in the open window, has no effect, I cant move the file around the window as I supposed to be able to do.
Every so often I notice that my preferences have been reset. Can't pin down a frequency, but you say every 4-6 months this happens.Documents open in tab form, my scratch drive is now C, and the checked options of S and O drive is gone.
I have not reset the preferences or done any actions or disk clean up operations.Using current version of McAfee Security Center and it does run scans automatically. But it does this frequently so the 4-6 mo. of reset makes this unlikely.

I used to know how to reset the tools and settings but is is no longer working for me. I mean holding down the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift. Do you have to do it at the program start. I'm trying to add better photos to my site. Instead of just stock photos. Here it is, my site.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have photoshop CS6. The eraser and brush tool is not working properly. I get a small dot on the page irrespective of the size of the eraser or brush that I select. Also I'm not sure if this is a feature of CS6. I've produced a graphic that involves a large number of layers, on past versions of photoshop if I needed to edit a layer I would select that layer and go to it on the page and edit it. On CS6 after I select the layer when I put my cursor anywhere on the page it would automatically select the layer that I am touching, which is similar to Coreldraw or Illustrator.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I try and use a round brush with 100% hardness, there is still significant dropoff in density from the center to the outside of the brush. Both the brush and layer are on "normal" mode. I've reset the brush tools. I've deleted the preference files for PSE10. What other settings should I be checking? I know that "brush flow" doesn't show up as a menu item in PSE10, but you can change it with keystrokes. I've messed with that and you can see the darkness of the brush change in the dropdown - I've set that to the "00" setting [shift-apple, ##], which I believe puts it to 100.

View 7 Replies View RelatedElsewhere in the forum I have a topic about sound echo, and a fix was to render a clip using the same project properties it was recorded with, at least regarding audio.
When I load X5, without a project or clip in the timeline - the project preference audio format is LPCM even tho the camcorder I use records dolby audio. I can open and edit the project preferences to change LPCM to dolby, and I can also check settings/enable 5.1 surround sound which does the same thing, but that setting won't survive an X5 program close. One would think that editing the properties like that and selecting OK at the end, the changes would have been saved and become the default. But when I next open X5, the project audio is again set LPCM.
As part of investigating the echo issue I uninstalled and re-installed X5 without any impact on the audio issues, which includes this one.
How can I set the project settings for audio so that the default is dolby and it lasts thru a close and the next X5 open?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently had to delete my preferences file and I had forgotten how much I had customized my Photoshop (CS5).Now, however, I can't remember how I changed some of the default settings, such as the location of brushes, gradients, patterns and shapes, that I keep in a central location. Used to be, that if I wanted to replace the brushes, It would open to this location where I actually store all my brushes, not the default location on the C drive.

Also, when i export to jpg the preset displays "custom" with cmyk color selected. My computer is having a hard time with designs of any size and takes forever to load the preview and export. When it finally loads the preview the design is not visible. if I select rgb color mode the design appears in the preview window and appears to load without any issues. I would like to make rgb the preset color mode. I have tried to select one of the default presets (high quality jpg) and save it but can't seem to figure out how to make it the default setting when i export to jpg.
For whatever reason, everything reset back to default in my application settings.
