ADOBE CS3 PHOTOSHOP/ ILLUSTRATOR WINDOWS XP

I’m using a smart object in photoshop, I click to edit it in illustrator, make the changes and save but when I return to photoshop the Object is not updated and disappears from view leaving just a blank layer.

I’ve never had this problem before but this weekend it’s happened a few times.

Can any one help???

Are you perhaps changing the layer order, grouping or some clipping masks? As usual I’m not working with these features a lot and probably shouldn’t advise ;-), but I could imagine that this would affect rasterization and how PS may want to update info that no longer is in the place where it expects… I’d also check the "Temp" directory (Documents and Settings\Rachael\Local Settings\Temp). Perhaps it’s simply full and the programs are not able to update the temporary files.
