Question Illustrator CS4 fonts (BIG) - navigation - MAC

Hi guys,.

I really hope someone can help me with this one! If this isn't the case, I hope that Adobe will notice my thread!

When I'm working with fonts in Photoshop, the program normally allows me to browse the fonts and see my text to transform so that it is selected. By pressing up and down keys, allows me to see the next or previous police. This function saves me a lot of time, because I have select each font by pressing the police-catalog-drop-down and select a font with my mouse. Especially when working on logos and print, in general it's a huge time saver! So why I'm not able to do that in illustrator on my Mac?

Is this a bug in the software, a solution to my problem exist the fact?

HELP / REPAIR! (-:

This is the only feature Windows, they have no interest in porting it to Mac or may not.

It is a long standing feature request, but I would not hold my breath on this one.

There are many Illustrator Mac users are against Adobe wasting time and resources on this feature, as they have never used in Photoshop where it works.

It could be a losing battle in advance you can try the forum feature request to see what kind of support you get.

    Hello. I have a big problem. I have Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator CS4 and Flash CS5 programs. I bought the programs a few years ago and used on my Mac with version 10.6.8. Now, I have a MacBook with the latest version 10.11. I wanted to copy the programs on my MacBook to work also on this computer. I copied the folder with the programs 'Programs' and the folder of the "Library / Application Support / Adobe" on my USB key and pulled on the MacBook in the program folder and the folder of Adobe.

  • replaced the hard drive, Illustrator CS4 now does not start

    After that I replaced my Mac (paid by Apple, fortunately) Fusion defective hard disk and restored everything from a Time Machine backup, Illustrator CS4 gives me error 150:30 when I try to run, with instructions to contact Adobe support web site. All I get there are some frequently asked questions and their cat gives suggestions repeated to try the forum. I'm surprised research here do not find other people who have had the same problem. I would have disabled AI CS4 before hand, but the disk failure came quickly and by surprise.

    I've logged into my Adobe account and could see my products, but could not find anywhere to administer anything, like resetting of the authorized computers one can in iTunes.

    Does anyone have a suggestion? I would of course welcome.

    Thank you

    Rick

    Contact support to reset the activations, run the cleanup tool, and reinstall it correctly. There is no magic involved and I'm sure that your own web searches have come up with the same instructions, even if you seem to refuse to recognize them as the correct procedures.

  • Illustrator CS4 PSD files import problem

    I suddenly have trouble cleaning importing Illustrator CS4 files in Photoshop CS4.  I use these products for years and have done this hundreds of times without difficulty.  But all of a sudden, the resulting files are not smoothed.

    Illustrator files are saved with the PDF compatibility option checked.  I tried to place them (and by engaging - I know they're looking bad but clean after validation) and I tried to paste from Illustrator.  Not here are the relatively simple files with no font - text only - and no transparency or effects.  I also tried to save as EPS files, but without success.  I took to export PNG since Illustrator files and import that.

    I'm short on a recent Mac tower with a lot of everything.  OS x 10.6.7 and everything is up-to-date.  Adobe Creative Suite CS4.

    Could something has been corrupted?  Something might be interfering?  Is there a setting preference-"Import Illustrator files nicely" which must be marketed?

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    When you place an EPS, PDF file or HAVE - there is an option in the options toolbar that says "smoothing". Make sure it's on.

    If you open a file in EPS, PDF or AI - there is a checkbox in the first dialog box that asks you the page number, resolution, etc. that says 'Anti-Aliasing (in the Page Options group). Make sure it's on.

  • Illustrator CS4 will not run under Snow Leopard

    Hello

    I just did a clean install of Snow Leopard on my Mac. Here's what I did.

    (1) installed Snow Leopard 10.6

    (2) installed all the updates of OS X (including 10.6.1)

    (3) installed Quark Xpress-8.12

    (4) installed Adobe CS4 Design Standard

    (5) installed all updates of Adobe (no updates associated with Illustrator)

    (6) installed Extensis Suitcase Fusion 2 (v13.2.1)

    Photoshop starts very well.

    When I launch Illustrator it crashes just after the start screen is displayed.

    Any ideas please?

    Couldn't find anything on the Internet really - if cannot get a response soon, so I have to go back to the leopard .

    Thank you

    Mike.

    I would suspect suitcase and maybe a corrupt police could be the cause of this problem and the database is corrupt.

    However before any attempt of software really point the finger this removes all the unnecessary fonts then

    to do this

    first Illustrator altogether and then;

    I go to the users/username/Library/preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS4 Settings folder and trash this settings folder.
    then see if Illustrator works well. If this is not the case, try a new user account if it works very well under a new user so I think it's the police database.
  • Illustrator CS4 SDK on Apple OSX 10.6 Snowleopard and Xcode 3.2 howto

    I can't compile one of the samplecode since the course illustrator CS4 SDK

    ai_cs4_sdk_mac_367 on an Apple Mac with os x 10.6 snow leopard (SL) and Xcode 3.2

    (see a few posts error at the end)

    The documentation mentions Xcode 2.4.1.

    Is it possible at all to use this SDK 367 with snowleopard and Xcode 3.2?

    If not, then how do you plugin writers update your plug-ins for illustrator to work on Snowleopard?

    some of the errors I during the samplecode "Tutorial" for the compilation "10.6 | Debug | i386"are:

    ----

    Also, I came across the question of uint32 with AIRaster.h.  Right or wrong, I commented the typedef in AIRaster.h and went with the standard definition of Xcode to uint32.  I thought it was OK since a 32-bit data type unsigned was what the two headers were trying to define.  I decided to go with the standard Apple set.

    Try to fix this first and see what happens when you recompile tutorial.  It compiles fine for me.

  • El Capitan and CS4 Photoshop / Illustrator CS4 / Excel 2008

    I held off upgrading to El Capitan and currently still use Yosemite on a MBPro. Anyone using El Capitan on MBPro with:

    Photoshop CS4

    Illustrator CS4

    Excel 2008

    These are my main apps that I'm worried about compatibility with upgrade. I don't want to upgrade to Adobe and Microsoft versions of subscription based programs - ones I have do the work I just need very well.

    Other more minor things that I use are:

    MenuMeters - is not officially supported by El Capitan, but I read a work about 1.9

    Panorama360

    Acrobat 9 Pro Pro

    OmniOutliner 3.10.5

    Fetch 5.7.5

    I would be interested in the compatibility reports.

    There is no guarantee anyone, that it will work and if you find it does not work for you no one will solve this problem, never.

    in order to maximize the possibility that it will work, I suggest a clean install with nothing that can be present to interfere.

    to do this follow these steps:

  • Illustrator CS4 closes

    I just installed Illustrator CS4 on a new iMac and when you select a type, the program stops.  She leaves also when saving a file to the desktop, but will allow me to save a file in a folder.  I've corrected the problems of fonts which have been identified in FontBook and I can use fonts in Photoshop without any problem.  I also get the window "some plug-ins have been updated." You will need to restart Illustrator for the changes to take effect."  This window pops up whenever the program is restarted or after he left due to saving a file or choose a font.  It appears as if I restarted the program without it quit.  Any suggestions on how to correct these problems?

    Blaker,

    There are serious problems with CS4 on El Capitan. If the computer was made for Yosemite, you can consider switching to and use.

    Otherwise, you may need to move from CS4. The latest version of perpetual license (and the only one which can be purchased from Adobe) are CS6. Then it's the subscription of the CC.

    I just bought a new iMac for one of our graphics employees, and in addition Adobe CC she need Illustrator CS5 installed, because there is a plugin that we use for a client who is not available for more recent than the CS5 versions. The problem that I am running is our copy of CS5 was an upgrade from versions CS4 and naturally, that was before we started using the Adobe TLP, so we bought anything and nobody can find our CS4 license info.
