Files saved from Automtor to desktop visually disappear

I have an automator task for pics I take, any file starting with "dscn" that's dropped on my desktop automatically opens the automator script and prompts me to rename the file.
Once renamed, the file is then appended with ".jpg" and saved to my desktop.
This has worked flawlessly for nearly a year, and now suddenly when the files are saved to my desktop they "disappear" but only visually.
When I force-quit finder the files then reappear.
This coincides with multiple other visual problems with my imac, such as dock icons being garbled, random lines appearing in Firefox and/or Safari when I view web pages etc. Any help?

Thanks V.K. I did just as you suggested, even restarted, but problem persists.
I keep very little on my desktop FYI, I drop pics there and use the automator to rename them, then I email them off to clients and file them, leaving nothing on the desktop.
Honestly I think my graphics card is starting to fritz out. These problems persist on both my "main" account and my "safety" account which has nothing installed on it. I think it's a hardware issue.
that's of course a possibility. run apple hardware tests and see if anything comes up. to do that insert the install DVD that originally cam with your computer, reboot and hold "d" at the chime. this will boot you into AHT. run all tests.

  • Can't open files saved from Safari

    In SL, I have a new problem with files that are saved from Safari.
    I first noticed it with an Automator service I made, which took selected text and made a text file out of it. But I eventually discovered the problem seemed to be with Safari. Any time Safari saves a file -- if for example, I click a link and it downloads a .zip file, then there is something wrong with that file that prevents me from opening it in another app.
    When I try to open the saved file, either by double-clicking in the Downloads window or from the Finder, the target app just starts bouncing in the dock and never opens. I have to force-quit it. If the target app is already open, it switches to it but never opens the document.
    This is only for files that were saved by Safari. Other PDF's and zip's open just fine.
    And, if I manually launch the target app, and then go to Open... and navigate to the saved document, I can open it fine.
    Files saved from Safari seem to have something wrong with them. If I quit Safari, logout, or even reboot, they still refuse to open by double-clicking.
    What could be causing this?

    Reset safari
    Safari/Reset Safari
    Go to Your HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ and remove to trash the "AdobePDFViewer.plugin".
    Open Safari and a .pdf and it should now open with Preview in a Safari/Browser window.
    If not then re download

  • CS6 AI Cannot open a file saved from CS5 AI

    Had tried to save and rename the file and place in the local C: harddrive, filename only English letters. Doesn't work.
    Had uninstalled completely the CS6 Master collection and CC cleaner tools and reinstall the CS6 again, but problem still there.
    Using Win8.1 Pro 64bit desktop at home.
    Acrobat X Pro can open the AI file !
    I am going to reinstall back the old version CS5 Design Premium to keep my work going on.
    Is there a solution for this problem up to now ?

    Hi Peter,
    I'm guessing it might have been a network corruption problem. She brought in her laptop, we made another .idml file and loaded it to a USB stick, then transferred it to my computer. The file opened just fine. And yes, she had pasted all her images, so we have her collecting the bits and pieces for me to review and relink everything. I believe I have the patch, but will double-check. Thanks!

  • Files with embedded profiles shown as untagged in Bridge.Bridge only right about files saved from PS

    Photoshop works perfectly when saving files as .psds etc. or PDF-Standards (PDF-X etc.), embedding the profiles correctly. However, InDesign and Illustrator do not embed any colour profiles in .pdfs, in their native formats (.indd and .ai) or any other format apart from .jpg.
    Why is Photoshop working perfectly, yet AI and INDD are not? Everything was installed at the same time, and the colour management settings are all synchronised in bridge.
    All I want to be able to do is save as one of the default PDF-X settings (via File > Save As in Illustrator), but as I said, saving as the same PDF-X standard across all 3 programs only embeds the profile if saved from Photoshop. I don’t have the slightest clue why Photshop is the only one that works.
    Although, according to this post, which seems very similar to my question, it might be Adobe Brdige CS5 that is wrong: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3565578
    Because I have files that Bridge shows as untagged, which upon opening do in fact have an embedded colour profile. Ugh, this stuff is confusing!

    Thanks so much for your help, I didn't know any of those things. Very interesting.
    In regards to Photoshop rasterizing PDFs, what exactly are the ramifications of that? A PDF-X saved from Photoshop is still fine to send to the print press, right?
    So far, all the print work I do I design in the colour space specified by my printer, then save as a PDF-X1a (which is also what they specify), by doing 'Save As' in Illlustrator. I also name the file with the colour space, and my printer has not had any problems with this.
    The reason I'm asking about colour management, is that I may start expanding into the area of designing adverts for newspapers and magazines, and this involves different colour spaces. And newspapers etc. around here won't be as fussy about colour management as my print-press, which is a very good print company. So it would be better if I knew they were getting PDFs from me with embedded colour profiles.
    I think the situation is that when I save things with embedded profiles, that it does in fact work, despite what Bridge, Illustrator and InDesign say. I have .ai files that show up in Bridge as untagged, but when opened in Illustrator, do indeed have an embedded colour profile.
    It's very confusing to know what's going on.
    A rather non-technical workaround, which alot of people seem to use, is just designing the file in the correct colour space, saving the file in that colour space, naming the file with that colour space, and then when it gets to the printer/magazine/newspaper etc. hoping that (A) there is colour profile data in the file that people can see at the destination or (B) the people at the destination know from the file name that you designed it in the correct space, and so they just Assign Profile at their end, and all is well.
    I mean, what's the alternative, I can't suddenly stop using Illustrator and InDesign, and doing ALL my work in Photoshop, just because of what Bridge says!

  • Remove control characters in txt file (saved from Excel)

    Hi,
    I have a txt file that contains invisible control characters and I want to remove those characters. I've been thinking of 2 options
    1/ Get the content of the file into a string, then go through each character and basically takes only alphanumeric, new lines, Alt+Enter character (character that is created in txt files in Excel that breaks line). With this approach, I'm stuck on getting the character code for Alt+Enter so if anyone could point out. That helps a great deal.
    2/ Use some pattern matching {ctrnl} or something to remove all control characters. I've tried this approach and it didn't work for me.
    Please help me with this problem. Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated.

    (saved from Excel) Why not save it as csv?

    You can figure that out with a hex editor or just write a small app that prints int values for each byte, not character, and print the file.
    Presumably you already found the Character class and its methods.

  • Refresh data in SWF based on excel file saved from SAP BW workbook

    Hi, is there a way to get data refresh in SWF dashboard from excel file as a data source. SAP BW workbook report will be saved as an excel file daily and placed in somewhere. I would like to create a dashboard which can connect to the excel data source and refresh on load.
    Appreciate your advice and help. Thank you.
    I am using Xcelsius 2008 and SAP BI 7.0

    Thank you.
    If I understand correctly from your advice, that is I should create QaaWs to pull data from SAP BI, which will return data in tabular format. Map the data in the cell range of a hidden tab, re-arrange and format the data into the row?
      Another concern: I need to display data for 4 quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3,Q4) in the dashboard, but QAAWS will only pulls data when the data is available in the database.
       Eg. Only data for 3 quarters are found in the database, QAAWS will return data for Q1, Q2,Q4.
             This will mess up the position fixed in the xcelsius. Do you have any suggestion on this?
       Sorry to bother u for the simple questions.
       Thank you.

  • Default page size settings in TEXT FILES SAVED FROM MAIL

    I regularly save emails as rtf files (either with or without attachments) and sometimes return to print them with TextEdit.
    I'm in Ireland, where our standard paper size is as most European countries, i.e. A4.
    My 'Default Paper Size in Page Setup' is set in the Print & Fax pane in *System Preferences* as A4.
    If I select 'Page Setup...' in Mail to print direct from the Application, it defaults as you'd expect to A4.
    If I make a fresh text file with TextEdit, it also defaults to A4.
    But if I 'Save As...' from Mail and then open the resulting file in TextEdit (or Word, for example) I find it has been saved with a US Letter Page Setup. Can I change this setting? If so, where?

    I think I see where the confusion is.
    I'm not talking about file attachments (the 'Save Attachments...' function in the File menu). What I'm talking about is the saving of the email as an rtf file (the 'Save As...' function). When you select 'Save As...' there's a further pull-down menu for format that allows you to save it as one of 3 options: Rich Text Format, Plain Text OR Raw Message Source. I want to save it as Rich Text which preserves fonts, bold type etc.
    Mail clearly can create such files (I have several GB of saved emails that says so!) - what I want to figure out is if there's a way to control the way it sets the page size in those files as it does so.

  • Word File Saving from Mac to PC

    having trouble saving word file from mac to pc, when i try to save file from mac to shared PC, dialogue box does not show shared computer

    This is just a WAG. Save it to the Mac and then just copy it to the PC.

  • How can I access files saved from the browser on my tablet? Doesn't open files?

    I tried to save a document on my tablet but in the downloads place in the browser it wouldn't open. I thought it was OK cause maybe the doc format, but I just tried to save a photo and when I tried to open it, it said "unable to find the default app."
    How can I get the photo on my tablet under pictures or something?  Do I need to download a special app?

    WMA files from libraries usually if not always contain DRM, which makes it impossible.

  • .mov file saved from other Mac not working on new Macbook

    My old Macbook Pro started acting funny so I saved all my pictures and videos to USB drives. My new Macbook (OSX 10.5.8) with QuickTime (version 7.6.4) will not open the .mov files. Per another similar thread it was suggested to enable the "Show legacy encoders" under QuickTime Advanced Preferences, but it still won't work. QuickTime opens and plays the file but there is no sound or picture? Any suggestions?

    Not sure what you mean here. Did you use the "Save As..." option to save the files as "Reference" movies to the USB drive? If so, they can't open because the "Standalone" reference file is not available on the mew system for playback.
    QuickTime opens and plays the file but there is no sound or picture?
    Confused here. Which is it? "QuickTime (version 7.6.4) will not open the .mov files" or "QuickTime opens and plays the file but there is no sound or picture?"
    Codecs: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, DV, Tween, Integer (Big Endian)
    What QT application are your referring to here? A "Tween" track is not usual for captured DV/AIFF content and would probably cause problems with an application like iMovie '08/'09 which don't like all possible MOV container track types.
    That's unusual, there is no Format information available. Just 1)source, 2)data size, 3)data range, 4)current time, and 5)duration.
    Sounds like corruption in the file, the QT embedded structure or the QT player. If the "small" files (like MPeG4/AAC) play okay, and only large ones (like DV/AIFF) have problems, then you may wish to check the USB drive format for file size limitations, data integrety, and/or other problems.

  • Cannot open  pdf files saved from Safari

    I can read large pdf files from websites opened in Safari but when I save them and later try to open them with Adobe reader I get the following error message
    Adobe Reader could not open 'ACOS-2013-final.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    This appears to only have happened when I installed the latest security update for the iMac

  • Files saved from Elements 12 editor not automatically picked up and stacked in organizer

    I have just upgraded to Elements 12 from version 6 and find that if I select a file in the organizer, select "Edit with Photoshop Elements editor", carry out the editing and save the file with the boxes for "include in elements organizer" and "Save in Version Set with original" checked the edited photo is not automatically included in the organizer nor stacked. On returning to the Organizer it tells me that a new photo has been found in the watched folders and I have to import it and stack it manually. What can I do to corret this problem?

    The workaround would be to kill the 'ElementsAutoanalyzer.exe' process, as described here:

    anybody can tell me how to fix this issue. Initially i have to download the data into excel sheet only this is my requirement.
    Thanks,
    Maheedhar

    Hi,
    Excel normally does this if there is an embedded delimiter within the cell, i.e. a comma within the text and you are delimiting by a comma. Try using a TAB delimiter and you are less likely to see this.
