Illustrator suddenly won't start

Ive use illustrator for 8 years, and had CS2 working on this pc without fail. All of a sudden when you start the program the other day after he finished to load fonts and preferences and its starting point, it gives me an error message "The operation cannot complete because of an error-unknown (CANT)"

Ive tried to purge the fonts and re-setup of illy and then upgraded to CS4.

Everything else works in the suite but illy. And always comes up with the same error msg.

Makes me nuts. Any help would be appreciated

  • First suddenly won't start

    I had a very strange thing happens, I was working on a draft organization 5.5 when first suddenly became unresponsive and finally crashed.  OK, it happened with the Organization since version 1 in my experience then I rebooted just the program.  I had the loading screen, he went through his "loading x", as he has done all the stuff he does normally, then suddenly the loading screen goes well, I'm on the desktop.  I try again with the same result, this time I am following up the Task Manager.  Adobe first Pro.exe appears in the process, and then all of a sudden it disappears as the loading screen.

    Hmm, I then tried to restart the computer.  After the restart, I tried again to launch the body with the same exact results.  At this point, I tried to reinstall the organization where my installation had been corrupted, it gave no results and the same problem persisted.  I tried again and Media Encoder, and both of them work perfectly.

    I'm about to try an uninstall of the body and my MXO2 and reinstall, but I'm not all that hopeful.  Anyone seen this before?  The thing that annoys me is that I was working on a project before that happened.  If all else fails I suppose I can format and reinstall Windows but I'd really like to avoid rather than extreme a step.  And of course that happens when I'm on a deadline... things you never go wrong when you have enough time to work through problems.

  • After you close the Illustrator, it won't start again

    Hello

    I'm in Illustrator CS5 on a PC 64 bit Windows 7 (fully updated). The user in question is a local administrator on his computer.

    The symptoms are:

    I close Illustrator in the normal way (via X or File > Exit)

    I then try to open Illustrator again, and it hangs during startup while showing "initializing plug-in...» Illustrator.exe"(he also does it on swfexport.aip from time to time).

    I tried deleting prefs, re-setup etc. nothing works.

    I can't reproduce the problem on another user on the same computer, so it's clearly a setting somewhere.

    Can someone guide me in the right direction?

    Thank you

    Thomas

    Hi Chantal,

    Thanks for coming back.

    What I write is 'opened', not 'opens '. The problem has been resolved by removing the user completely and then set up new profile.

  • Host Agent VMware suddenly won't start

    I've been running VMware Server 2.0 on Vista x 64 for a few weeks without problem.  Yesterday, it was working fine, then something has happened apparently, and I could no longer access the management interface.  Some readings of threads and investigation has led me to discover that the host VMware Agent is not started.  When I tried to start it manually, the service started briefly, then interrupted; After that, when you try to start the service, I received an error message indicating that the service could not start and "refer to the specific service-1 error code."  This trend continues today: if I leave service alone for a period of time, it will briefly start and then stop. If I try to start shortly after, I get the error code - 1.

    I repaired the installation, and I also uninstalled and reinstalled it, nothing helps.  Also disabled anti-virus (avast!), same result.

    Any thoughts?

    Hey guys,.

    Remove the VMWare folder in C:\ProgramData (hidden folder), and then reinstall VMWare solves the problem. It must be a corrupt configuration file that was causing the problem.

  • 4600 won't start

    Hi, community,

    my pro sat suddenly won't start. only power led flashes. Got out of the car, a piece of metal appears to be noise. But - if the drive is broken - shoulnd't the laptop will start anyway? Thank you for your help in advance. Wolfgang

    Hi, Wolfgang

    Yes, the machine must be able to start up indicating at least the TOSHIBA logo without the optical drive and fixed.

    Some background info: flashing DC-IN means that you have a problem of power supply to your machine.

    Please delete what you can without using a screwdriver. PC card, battery and so on. If you have 2 mem cards remove one.
    When everything is there, try to restart the device. Keeps blinking? If you had 2 plates of mem, remove the still inside and install another one in another location. Try again. Always the same?
    So I guess that there is a physical problem with the machine.

    If the machine starts normally, try turning off and to reconnect one removed items at once turn on the machine after each reconnection.
    Test them one by one and see if you can find out if there is a specific that causes this problem.

    Good luck!

  • Mid-2015 MacBook Pro won't start every 2 weeks, need to restore from a backup.

    Hello all, big problem, Apple says that it is not material (although I'm not sure), but if not, then there must be some sort of conflict between my installed software and the new model of MacBook Pro mid-2015. Help!

    The problem here is that I've been running EXACTLY the same configuration on a MacBook Pro 2012 since, well, 2012, without any problem. But when I received the new machine in December, I migrated everything on (using Migration Assistant), I have installed a Bootcamp partition, migrated my old installation of Windows on the use of WinClone, and everything was fine for about 2 weeks. This is the same process as I did when I upgraded the machine from 2009 to 2012 also machine well.

    Suddenly one day, starting from Windows to Mac OS, I watched the progress bar filling, then stop, then the screen went black. No sound, nothing. I hit the power button and the same sequence. Progress bar about 3/4 of way filled, on the screen then black, then the unit turns off.

    I called Apple, went to two Apple stores, and we all tried to run disk utility to fix the problem. But every time I find myself with a message "Invalid node structure. The volume could not be completely checked. File system check exit code 8. Updated scores of start-up of the volume as required. File system check or repair a failure. Operation failed... "The topic on this bed,"first aid process has failed, if possible, back up the data on this volume. »

    The idea of first re - install the operating system didn't work... apparently there was a problem with the volume at this point so he would not restore. The next option was to completely erase the partition and then restore the backup. That worked, but then the entire process repeated two weeks later.

    I have been through this process 7 ~ 8 times since December! It seems to happen every two weeks and no one can tell me why it's happening on this new machine, but I have NOT had the problem on the old machine running the same configuration.


    Apple said it might have something to do with execution Tuxera NTFS on Mac (if I can share documents across side Windows). I have not removed... Tuxera two restorations there is no change.

    I also use Paragon HFS + for Windows, because most of my material is actually stored on the Mac side. I have NOT yet removed this (current running Windows 10) because I have NO idea why or how something running on the Windows side could affect the operating system volume on the side of Mac... especially when everything I do is opening and closing things as Word documents.

    I have log files and screenshots (I write below a few... but there are many others). Apple says "it is not a hardware problem" so they won't have to help understand if it's just software. I beg the community to help!

    Here's what I new material:

    MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inch, mid-2015)

    Intel Core i7 2.8 GHz

    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    AMD Radeon R9 M370X 2048 MB

    This graphics card is the NEW one, first, that I do business with AMD

    My OLD machine is:

    MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2012)

    Intel Core i7 2.7 GHz

    16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB

    Any help or ideas are appreciated!

    Suddenly one day, starting from Windows to Mac OS, I watched the progress bar filling, then stop, then the screen went black. No sound, nothing. I hit the power button and the same sequence. Progress bar about 3/4 of way filled, on the screen then black, then the unit turns off.

    This occurs when the drive Boot CAN get the initial Blob of the software off the drive with the boot loader, but when he tried to mount the disk with the file system, it can not be mounted. It runs a single past of [essential] disk first aid. If the drive cannot be mounted, your Mac can not do something useful, he died.

    If the problem could not be fixed quickly, you should have been advised to REPLACE this hard drive.

    This is what you need to do now and stop wasting your time. A new drive costs less than $ 100 and will solve your problems.

    My laptop won't start and when it does stop down suddenly or BSOD screen comes up. My battery died and when the computer starts, it displays a message on this subject.

    Problem solved! A loose chip (graphics card) has been the cause of all the problems. My laptop works as fine as ever. It was also the problem of previous versions of the laptop dv6/7. So, you just need to check if the graphics chip is loose. If so, welding, it will allow to solve! Good luck!!

  • Qosmio G20 - won't start, error ATA #1

    I have a G20-102. Today I opened my flash drive and files all showed them as shortcuts.

    Hey,.

    To me, it looks like a serious hardware malfunction

    You could try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Enter in the BIOS, and then press the F9 key to load defaults. Then save & exit the BIOS and try to start again.

    The HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS? If so I try a recovery disk Toshiba recovery installation and check if the problem is hardware or software partners.

  • MacBook won't start - completely back screen

    2015 12 '' MacBook

    My MacBook won't start. I put on various points of sale and even changed on the brick of cable and power (I have an extra).

    Nothing happens when I press and hold the power button.

    Any suggestions before I take it to the Genius Bar?

    Here is some information that might be useful.

    After I press the button for a few seconds, the trackpad does not haptic feedback, confirming that this is the start.

    However, if I press the power button once again, I get haptic trackpad. It tells me that it is on, but I always get a black screen. And if I press the caps lock key, no green light appears.

  • Satellite Pro 2100 won't start at all - LED flash

    My SP2100 began to have feeding problems and now won't start at all. The AC adapter green LED is lit, that are relevant lights on the body of the laptop (although the "battery charge" light always orange these days). When I try the switch on, startup begins (in fact succeeded on occasion until this morning), however the battery indicator and the adapter lights are flashing, and everything stops again.

    On the rare occasions when I'll be past this stage, lights blinking, and the system soon shuts down again with a screen message "low battery." Until this morning, he would sometimes settle, the computer remained on, and the lights showed a State of equilibrium as usual.

    Initially I thought that the problem was of course the battery or the AC adapter, but now I'm starting to think that it is with internal PSU of the laptop (although I suspect the battery is probably tour after all this part of loading and unloading).

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    I think you're right. Flashing LEDS are a sign that hardware is defective.
    I can't say what exactly is the problem, this should be verified by a technicain.
    On the other side I don't know if it's worth to repair such an old machine.

    Good bye
