WE got the CS premium package and I cannot paste from Illustrator CS into Photoshop CS as a shape layer. It used to ask me how I wanted to paste the artwork. Anyone know how I can fix this?

Scott,

It still should……

What are your clipboard options set to in Illustrator preferences?

You could also try trashing the PhotoshopCS Preference file.

Check your Illustrator preferences – file handling and clipboard. You need to have "AICB" checked. With this turned on – when you paste into a Photoshop doc you should get a window giving you the option of pasting as pixels, path, or shape layer.
