I downloaded an AI file from a website, when i opened it i can't move or select anything on the boards. I can't select any tools as well. The only thing that appear is a mini pen/pencil with a anti/no sign. I tried to unlock the layers but the options in the object are all in grey colour and can't be selected.
Could you post a screenshot showing your layers panel? Is the problem only happening with the one file?
If it is just the one file and you are on a Mac (I'm not sure how to do this on a PC) click on the file on the desktop and use the keyboard command Command-i to get the info dialog for the file. Check in there to make sure that you have read and write privledges for the file and that the file is not locked.
