Having Trouble Saving

Hello,
I've encountered a problem in what seems to be a very simple series of events. So simple that the error does not come up anywhere in the Soundtrack Pro User's Manual.
I sent one audio clip into soundtrack pro from fcp using the "send to" command. I proceeded to clean it up a little using a high pass filter, some EQ tweaking, and noise reduction. When I saved the clip, soundtrack pro offered me the most generic error message I think I've ever encountered: "unable to save project." It included a triangle encasing a red exclamation point, as if I somehow stumbled upon the entrance to heaven and entered the wrong code at the pearly gates.
On the apple troubleshooting page, the solution to the problem seems to be that I should save to another hard drive, since my hard drive is probably out of space. That's highly unlikely, as the hard drive is brand new and hardly has any media on it. I can't seem to find any other solution anywhere, and neither have any of my colleagues encountered the error. Can somebody please help me, I have to deliver a video by the end of the week and I'm stuck feeling angry and dejected at a piece of technology I thought I was pretty familiar with.

Can Somebody please help me with this, i just can't find an answer anywhere, the problem seems so simple but keeps eluding me. I'm an amateur so I don't have many colleagues who can provide me with answers.
I noticed also that when I use the "send to soundtrack pro as an audio file" command, the video does not show up in soundtrack pro. It sends as a quicktime file with an added "a" extension, i.e.
introduction - a.mov. Does this have anything to do with the program's inability to save?

  • Having trouble saving tiff files to server

    Hi all,
    I'm having trouble saving tiff files to our server (a mac pro running OSX 10.5.7 client not server). I get the error message 'could not save "filename" because write access was not granted. The disk in question is set to ignore permissions and the other 3 Macs on the network have no problems.
    Bizarrely this only seems to happen when saving as a Tiff file, I can save as JPEG without issue! The file will usually save after a few attempts, sometimes six or seven save as' are needed.
    This problem comes and goes, but at the moment its pretty bad.
    This is becomming very frustrating as Tiff is our prefered format and we work as a team so have to save to the server.
    Any ideas?

    Just to expand on Buko's correct ansswer, this is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9

    I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9.  When I attempt to save I get message saying,"Bad File Handle".  There are several pictures on this file I'm trying to save...dont know if that has anything to do with the problem, just thought it would be helpful information.  Would really appreciate any insight anyone has to offer.
    Thanks in advance

    I am having a similar problem with a simple pdf form.  I have made several changes to the pdf and when I go to save, I get the message that I can't save the file due to a "bad file handle."  I have opened, altered, saved, and closed the form several times before, just not now.  No one else was working on the form.  The file format is still a pdf and nothing has changed.

  • Im having trouble saving images from photoshop to my samsung tablet any ideas

    im having trouble saving photoshopped imsges onto my samsung tablet any ideas ?

    I have no knowledge of the Android OS.  I do have an iPod and its OS iOS is not really comparable my Windows  OS.  The iPod does mount as a dive on windows and the iPod camera roll is accessible. The jpes images can be copied to my pc.  However the PC does not have access to the iOS file system even apple user don't have real access the iOS file system.   Image need to be synced between the iPod and PC through iTunes sync.  Itunes messes with your PC images and creates some sort of image database and syncs that database between PC and Apple mobile devices.  There are also apps that help you share file between PC and Apple mobile devices.  I have no idea how files are shared between PC Operating Systems platform versions and Android OS versions.  Photoshop may not be able to save to Android files system.  Photoshop Can not save to Apple mobile devices. Photoshop may be able to save to Apple's Mac unix file system through some form of network share.
    How does one share files between Android devices and PC OS devices?

  • I am having trouble saving my swatches and brushes that I create. After I close Illustrator, and come back later my swatches and brushes are gone.

    I am having trouble saving my swatches and brushes that I create. After I close Illustrator, and come back later my swatches and brushes are gone.

    Once you have a document with the swatches, brushes, symbols that you want, save it as a new Document Profile.
    Document profiles can be found (and saved) in Library > Application Support > Adobe > Adobe Illustrator 18 (if you have CC) > your language folder > New Document Profiles.
    Next time you create a document you will find it in the list of profiles.

        Hello wsc315
    I'm sorry your having issues with certain songs. Let's look into this. Are you able to play the music files with another app? Have you tried downloading the song on another device? Where did the music come from originally?

  • Having trouble saving as .doc format

    I am having real trouble saving any edited documents to .doc format.  I am editting my CV and it is obviously neccessary for it to be compatible with microsoft office so I save a copy as .doc but as I edit it and go to resave as .doc it does not save the changes, when I go back into it the document has reverted back to my last copy of my CV.
    Please help!! I have rang apple but because my apple care has expired they want to charge me £35 to help me??

    Nic,
    No charges here .
    The first thing that comes to mind is that your understanding of how this works may not match the way Pages does this. You'll use either File > Export > Word... or Share > Export > Word... . Neither will update a previously exported document unless you choose the same filename for the second export as for the first, and then override the warning.

  • HAVING TROUBLE SAVING ITEMS IN LION AS IT IS DIFFERENT THAN SNOW LEAPORD... CAN ANYONE SHARE THE CORRECT PROCEEDURE?

    I'M HAVING TROUBLE USING THE SAVE FEATURE IN LION AS IT'S MUCH DIFFERENT THAN THAT IN SNOW LEAPORD, CAN ANYONE SHARE THE CORRECT PROCEEDURE TO SAVE A DOCUMENT?

    Revert back to Snow Leopard would be the ideal choice.
    Not writing in all caps would be nice too, it's SHOUTING
    Thirdly, Lion introduced auto-save, so you have to duplicate the file, then open the duplicate to make changes.
    Wonderfully asinine.
    Quit the program, it will ask you to save.

  • Having trouble saving over files in right location.

    When using Adobe Illustrator CS5 mainly but other applications too.
    I am working from a server, say there is folder A, B, C and D.
    I open up a file from folder A, amend it etc and go to save over that (cmd-shift-s - i use this as it previews correctly rather than hitting cmd-s where it will preview only a bit of the artboard) and the save dialog box will either show folder B, C or D or will just Downloads or Documents for example - basically it will want to save anywhere other than I opened it from!
    This is a pain because if I am working on 4 or 5 files making small amends and just quickly wanting to save over them and get onto the next one I have to then navigate to where the file is, even though I opened the document from there.
    I have experienced this problem ever since upgrading to Mavericks!
    Also, the Save box is tiny! I always have to expand it to see the folder contents etc
    Hope this all makes sense and appreciate any help you can offer
    Please note it doesn't help either way if I use Save (cmd-s) or Save As (cmd-shift-s). My colleague is also experiencing the same problem since upgrading to Mavericks.
    Thanks

    Ive just posted this but have been directed to this thread...
    Recently updated mac to Mavericks and a few teething problems to say the least, a few quirky bits in the adobe software programs which Im asking if anyone else is experiencing.
    Open a file in illustrator, save as, click to the new window and file where i need at saved and the window totally disappears.
    To 'save as' I have to save the file to the desktop, click the folder and change the name. Unable to 'Save as' to a different file as well.
    Not the end of the world but irritating!
    using Creative Cloud
    Im also having problems with indesign, importing an image to an image box and the window vanished - having to drag and drop from desktop to layout.
    Help and suggestions from Adobe please?

  • Having trouble saving an image of the whole page using pdf it. I click save, but not in the file. I have tried saving in multiple locations, saing it as .jpg

    Just about 2 days ago I started having a problem saving a jpg file using the "pdf it!" add-on. It lets me save, but when I look in the folder there is nothing there? I use save as image and then whole page. I have tried saving in several different locations, but nothing works.
    Thanks for the help.

    The link to website of the developer is broken too !

  • Are you having trouble Saving a copy of a pdf document in Adobe X? Well here is the solution!!!!

    Use another Web browser! There are confirmed problems with IE8 and Firefox. Opera works just fine, and I am assuming since Google is 'tea-bagging' just about everyone (or everyone is 'tea-bagging' Google, I'm not really sure) that it probably works in Chrome. There! Problem solved! Adobe sucks!

    You can create a script that will lock the fields before signing. But when you edit the document after the student signs, the signature will no longer be valid and the document will show that it has been changed after signing. Adobe restricts the number of files you can collect information on with forms that can be saved and emailed. The restriction used to be 500 files unless you purchased the appropriate LiveCycle product to enable the pdf files for saving.
    Why in the world are you requiring potential students to sign forms. Many students will not know how to sign pdf files. Just have a button that will submit the information to a website for you to extract or to send you the information in an FDF file and import the information form. You can have a button that will lock the fields they fill out. This will ensure you do not have to worry about the 500 file limit.

  • Why am I having trouble saving images consistently with Photoshop 5

    I have been trying to save images from one file to a final modified one.  Two problems:  1) Some images are unedited and save sometimes but not always.  Why?    2) Some are a combination of an original plus a transformed close-up from another image.  When the finished edited image saves, it is much smaller than the few unedited images that did successfully save.  Why?
    The images are digital photos of my jewelry.  In order to decrease the number of pages on my impending website, I am attempting to transfer, when one is available, a resized close-up to the other shot of  the full set (close-ups are what sell the work!).  Some of the images show 25% on the top bar but that doesn't seem to make a difference as to whether it will save or not.  Others (I notice they seem to be more horizontal images) are 16.7% ?  Does anyone still use Photoshop 5 or is this a fix that is so basic, it is the same for newer editions???  Anyone?
    Also, while we are on this page:  I tried to upload example images to illustrate what I am trying to do but kept getting an error message.  Any advise?

    For web use the resolution of the file has no meaning only the pixel dimensions.
    It depends on the site your uploading to, some have specific sizes for the photos (pixel dimensions) that is usually listed somewhere on the site, but to give you a rough idea, the size might say something like no bigger than 800x600.
    That would mean 800 pixels x 600 pixels (resolution doesn't matter) and the usual file type is jpeg. The 800 is for the long side of the photo.
    To see the pixel dimensions of a particular file, go to Image>Image Size and i agree with the others on the % being the viewing (zoom) percentage of the image on the screen and doesn't mean anything as far as saving files. 100% is actual pixels.
    If you double click on the zoom tool in the toolbox that % should change to 100% (actual pixels) In the photoshop 5 help, look under Looking at the Work Area-Viewing Images.
    Do any of the files your saving have layers (more layers than just the Background layer)?

  • Having trouble saving text from Arabic-script PDFs

    I have several PDFs created using different versions of the PDF format with text that uses the Arabic script (i.e. Arabic, Farsi, etc.) All I need is to save the text properly into something like a Unicode text file, an RTF or a DOC file, or something similar. I use Adobe Acrobat Std ver 7 and often get error messages or the text that is saved is corrupted. What components/fonts/software/etc do I need to install on my machine to do this properly? While the operation that I need - "Save as ..." - is pretty basic, the variety of PDF documents I have is pretty wide in terms of when and how they were created, what languages they contain etc. Thanks!

    Bil,
    Thanks for the info. I actually did observe exactly that in a couple of cases, i.e. "copy & paste" worked when "save as" did not. Do you know what is fundamentally different between these two operations? Also, if I am willing to lose all formatting and just get pure text (I am thinking of "pure text" as a UTF8 or UTF16 byte stream), does this make my life any easier? Finally, how can I find out which font I have problems with when I "save as" and get garbage? E.g. if I open the PDF file in a text editor, where is the detailed font info?

  • Having trouble saving emails as .txt documents

    Hi all,
    I'm working on dissertation research, and I have a ton (400+) emails that I need to be able to save as .txt documents outside of mail.app (I'm highlighting the emails and then selecting file-->save as). Ideally, I'd like to save chunks of them at a time. Like 30 emails at once into 1 .txt file. I'm able to do this with about 6 emails, but if I select any more than that, then mail.app hangs for a while, and eventually crashes.
    Any advice on how to be able to do this?

    I've just tried it. Selected twelve messages from my Inbox folder, selected Save As from the File menu, saved as RTF text file. Worked fine and opened in TextEdit without a hitch.
    I'd say you have some other problem with your system, Mail, or a preferences file.
