i have a bizarre problem. i have some how lost tools from my Illustrator tool bar. brush /pencil/eraser and others...don't know how, there no where to be found. i remember having a dual monitor setup awhile back and tearing the tools of from the tool bar...so in some way , just because nothing else is working, i' thinking that my computer (G4) is thinking that the tools are on the other monitor??? unfortunately the programs are registered to someone else so adobe won't help me. therefore i can't reinstall the program (that i know of)....
even when i use the keyboard shortcuts the tool isn't accessible. there isn't even an icon in the toolbar just a blank spot where the tool s once were? has anyone ever heard of this happening to anyone before.
