Hi I work on an Ipad Pro and I have no clue how to image trace with it. I know I can use construction guides, but I have no clue where those are either or 

On Illustrator for the Mac, I created an file of icons, built from simple stroked vector shapes. I saved it to Dropbox. I opened Illustrator for the iPad, navigated to my Dropbox folder, and opened the file. I saw the warning about how not all features of this (very simple) file were supported by Illustrator for the iPad. I closed the resulting document because I could not work on it. I later opened the same file on Illustrator for the Mac and those vectors were gone. The only thing left was the proxy low-res images for a reference photo. Luckily I had saved a PDF for my client to preview and I had enabled 'keep editable' in the export options. My question is, is there a way to prevent AI iPad from writing over files, both 1) at all and 2) especially after giving the user an error warning that the file's features weren't fully supported.

Hi.  Please help.  I got Illustrator for ipad in November, and  I set up my subscription with an Appleid.  Then, last week I got a new Macbook Pro and installed Illustrator on that.  My problem is that my cloud documents are not compatible.  Most of my work is on the ipad, but if I sign out of the appleid and in to my new Adobe ID on the ipad everything I had worked on is gone.  How can I sync my two cloud accounts?  Thanks so much!

How do you delete a Layer on Illustrator on Ipad?? I can't seem to find any button to delete a layer. I have tried everthing with no luck.

I'm seeing these white backgrounds when I'm trying to create an image within an 18X18 artboard. I exported one file where I was able to see the drawing within the 18X18. From the picture attached, you can see how it has the full white background as opposed to the drawing being within the 18x18 container. When I open the file in the app, the drawing looks fine but when I save it and it takes me back to the homepage, it looks like this. Anyone know how to correct that?

I am doing my very first attempts at vectorizing a small bitmap of a bird.I have created the outline if the whole bird - all white. Here is part of the wing from the bitmap: On my outline the wingtip is white. How can I change this without drawing the wingtip again in a new layer on top of the body outline?alternativeli, is there a way to cut what is to the left of the red marks below and put it in a new layer? If yes. Is there a way I can copy the line between white and black (marked with red - - - -) and use it on both the white and the black layer?Thanks a lot for reading this.Stein     

Hi I just got my first iPad(iPad Pro), and something is noticeably wrong with the Adobe Illustrator. I tried the other apps, and other adobe apps to see if it was my iPad messing up but it is only adobe illustrator. Problem: Whenever I go to click on the color pallet or the pen/paint tool, it will disappear before I can click anything or change anything. I tried using my pen and my finger and nothing changes. Where can I get help for this?
