Don't have CS installed... not sure if I have a copy of it... That's ridiculous, though. If she could open my CS2 file, I should be able to open an older file. I used to use CS on…

That might not even work. Just making suggestions.

Any other ideas?

Tell her to save it then .zip it. That usually works when we have problem files from customers. Somehow, sometimes, things get lost in the transfer, either from email or from FTP o…

ZIP = Willing to wager that will help.

It sort of helped. When unarchived, the file appeared as a proper .ai file with the Adobe Illustrator CS ONE logo on it (the pink flower, rather than the orange one), but it still …

Alright, never mind. We found out the problem. Can't use compression when crossing versions, apparently. When I emailed it to her, apparently it all appeared on one layer, and she …

Oooh, that's good to know! I'm glad someone else went through the pain instead of me. Might be good info to have in the future. Thanks!

That is good to know, thanks for sharing.

The Use Compression checkbox. Actually, there are still compatibility issues that we never got sorted out. For some reason, whenever I sent an .ai file to her, all the data appear…

I wonder if its also the 'Preserve PDF editing capbility' setting. Seeing as you noticed tons of clipping paths, it reminds me of when I open a PDF inside of Illustrator.

I'm on a PC using Illustrator CS2, but this might work for you good folks on Macs. Note that I have never compressed this file in any way, nor have I emailed it or opened it on any…

If you first created the .ai in CS2, I am actually surprised it opened in CS. But since it did, it must have converted the file to the legacy CS format, which apparently isn't read…

Help! I installed Tiger over the weekend and now, every single one of my .ai files won't open! I've even gone through the 'open all files with the .ai extension in Illustrator' s…

Have you tried File->Open from within CS?

Hi all- My powerbook was stolen and, with it, all of my photos. I have them all on my iPod, but not the full res ones, so when I look in the iPod "Photo" folder, all I see is "Phot…

I think I've found the answer. This: http://echoone.com/filejuicer/ seems to be extracting all my photos from the database! I'm so happy, because I can replace my laptop, but not m…

Looks like someone got ahold of one of these in the US. Not including a screen, Apple left the market wide open for this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=5801698084

Please help me folks. I accidentally threw my ipod in a water, it didnt function since then. So, i decided to send it to the technician and he said, i need the windows operating sy…

Don't cross-post. I'll leave this one open since it's in the correct forum, but the others will be closed.

Why do you need a copy of the iPod's OS if you had "accidentally thrown" your iPod into the water? Anyway, to format it, you need to use Apple's iPod Updater application.

Yeah, just use the iPod application. it should be in Start>All Programs>iPod. Click on restore (that will wipe all your music and files on the iPod), but will restore the OS …
