5.5 Issue, no longer saves Project Title, no longer uses file name

I often work in mammoth multi-slide projects and then break them into more reasonable chunks later on, deleting extra slides and saving with a differnt file name. In Captivate 4.0 this automatically updated the Project Title in the Publish Dialog. In 5.5 it retains the old name, even after saving or publishing it. This can lead to over-writing the original project.
In recent days I've discovered a truly bizzare workaround, completely by accident. A colleague was doing some QC and saved slides with completely new names. Although the Project Title wrongly retained the original file name, when I changed it to publish the slide, and then immediately used "Save As..." to save it with the same file name as the Project Title I just published, it finally retained the new name---in other words the Project Title I just published was still there after I closed then opened the file. If I Save As... before publishing it displays the frustrating broken behaviour, and when I tried it on some other files I had renamed it didn't work either... it seems as if the magic is available only on the first Save As... after renaming.
Anyone else seen this? Any better workaround? Can we expect a fix? When?
Thanks.

yes i've seen that before. I had a prototype of a project and as it progressed beyond a prototype I started saving and publishing with a new name. But when I publish now it retains the name I used for the prototype, even tho I've published it several times with the new name. Always defaults back to the first name I used. You're not alone in your frustration.
I'll try to test it a little tomorrow to see if your workaround works for me.

Prompt For Document Title as well as file name

Is there script or setting which requires the entry of document title as well as file name upon the saving a document? I understand that I can open document properties prior to saving, but I would prefer to enter the save command and be prompted to enter a doucment's title as well it file name. Thanks.

You can use the Prefix field to include things like "Dr.", and this will appear on the label.
I do not see any automatic way to include Job Title, but if you don't have too many to print you can do a kluge by putting the job title in the first line of the addres, then return, then the real first line. This will print nicely. But is work putting it in.

How to save a form in a different file name?

Hello All,
I have a form which has 7 pages. I have 3 buttons which are for submitting PDF,XML and print button. I do not want to keep SaveAs button.
What I need : When the user completes all the required fields and clicks on SubmitAsPDF or SubmitAsXML then it will prompt the user to save the form in a different file name. After the user has saved the form in a different file name then it should submit the form to the required mail ID. How to best accomplish it ?
Thanks.
Bibhu.

Hello Niall,
Thanks for the help. I used a hidden field whose name is "CurrentFileName" then in the docReady event of this hidden field I used the following script.
this.rawValue = event.target.documentFileName;
Then in the mouseUp event of the submit button I used the follwing script.
if(form1.Page1.CurrentFileName.rawValue == event.target.documentFileName)
app.alert("Please save this form in a different file name before submitting !");
app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");
But problem is : As the file is saved in a different name the script fires again and again if we click the submit button prompting the user to save the form in a different file name , but the user has already saved it in different file name .How to get rid of it ?
Thanks.
Bibhu.

The printing of .pdf file from Project 2013 stops when the file name should be written. Project 2013 crashes. Does someone know what is wrong between Project 2013 and Adobe Acrobat 9?

The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year of 2013.
Acrobat 9 support of MS Project via PDFMaker stops with Office 2007.
For Office 2013 support you must use Acrobat XI (11.0.1) or newer.

Premiere Pro CS5 No Longer Saves Project

I am working on a Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 with 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors and 12 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM Memory. I am running Premiere Pro CS5 on this machine.
I work for a company who produces 50-100 short, education-based videos for clients across the country to post on YouTube. The model we use is not complicated, but geared toward getting these videos edited with graphics and music quickly so they can be released slowly over time. So, needless to say, I'm accessing their project files quite often, until all of their videos are edited. For some reason, however, after a certain amount of times opening & quitting the program, the project no longer saves. This has happened to TWO projects so far (one using AVCHD footage, and the other Canon MXF files).
Here's what happens:
The project starts to take longer to save, then, one day I go to save or Auto-Save kicks in and the dialog box comes up but the progress bar never changes.
It will stay this way as long as I let it, but as soon as I click "Cancel" Premiere freezes up and I have to resort to "Force Quit".
It is at this point that I become aware of the insanely large file size of the project....in this particular case, 380.2MB.
I have tried:
- "Save As"
- Duplicating the project in Finder and opening the copy
- Opening Auto-Save Files
- Creating a new project completely and importing the old project
- Trashing Preferences
- And even resetting the workspace to the default "Editing" workspace (a suggestion when Googling the problem).
None of the above has helped.
Luckily, at my company, we have another machine (Mac OS X ver. 10.6.8, 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors, 12 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 Memory) which runs CS5.5. As a workaround, I've been able to take these projects over there and just continue to work on them in CS5.5. But, obviously this is not a solution. I'd like to know what the problem may be behind all this, especially since this is a problem that could theoretically happen in CS5.5 down the line.
Any insight is appreciated, and please let me know if you need more info on my part!!

Maybe it was a 32 bit plug-in?

Why do my video podcasts now save in a folder under the file name "download" and not the name of the podcast

I just downloaded Itunes 10. When I download video podcast they save in a individual folder with the podcasts name.tmp, then inside the folder is the video file just named DOWNLOAD. This didnt happen in the previous versions of itunes why is this happening in Itunes 10? How can I change so that the files save as the name of the podcast.

Some users seem to be having issues with the latest build (10.2.2) where files are not moved/renamed after downloading. It works fine for me in a test library so I'm not quite sure what the issue is. You may find things sor themselves out if you turn off Keep iTunes Media folder organised and then turn it back agaqin (assuming you use that feature). Hopefully the next update isn't too far away.
Alternatively you can try my script ConsolidateByMoving which should move selected files that are in the "wrong" place to their standard iTunes locations.

Trying to save a document with a new file name

I have a IMacOSX Lion
I am very new to apple products
How do I save an existing document with a new file name thereby having two documents the old one and the new one with changes? Once a document has been saved once opening File no longer offers the save or Save as choice. Clicking on Save a version does not work either. Please help!

What application are you using?
Most Apple apps have adopted a new file saving scheme for what you describe. In Pages, for instance, you go to the File menu and select Duplicate. You end up with two documents, one labeled xxx copy (if the original was xxx). Now you can save xxx copy by using Save from the File menu, and change the name to whatever you want.
Hope this helps you. Best of luck.

When trying to save a page, I can enter file name etc, but don't see the SAVE button to click SAVE. It's like it's below the screen or something. How do I fix this?

I was in a webpage and was trying to save it. I selected SAVE AS from the drop down menu. Then I entered the file name, and selected TEXT ONLY as file type. Only thing left to do was click SAVE, but there was no SAVE button.

You can check it DTA or another extension isn't causing this problem.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

How to auto save output with date added to file name, and email the results?

Hi,
We found a script to capture disk space usage, that automatically places the results into an Excel file. We would like the script to autosave this file to a specific directroy with the date ran as part of teh file name. We would then like these results to
be emailed to us if possible. (also if possible to highlight cell in red that is 5% OR less available disk space would be great)
Here is what we have:
$erroractionpreference = “SilentlyContinue”
$a = New-Object -comobject Excel.Application
$a.visible = $True
$b = $a.Workbooks.Add()
$c = $b.Worksheets.Item(1)
$c.Cells.Item(1,1) = “Machine Name”
$c.Cells.Item(1,2) = “Drive”
$c.Cells.Item(1,3) = “Total size (GB)”
$c.Cells.Item(1,4) = “Free Space (GB)”
$c.Cells.Item(1,5) = “Free Space (%)”
$c.cells.item(1,6) = "Name "
$d = $c.UsedRange
$d.Interior.ColorIndex = 19
$d.Font.ColorIndex = 11
$d.Font.Bold = $True
$d.EntireColumn.AutoFit()
$intRow = 2
$colComputers = get-content "C:\Servers.txt"
foreach ($strComputer in $colComputers)
$colDisks = get-wmiobject Win32_LogicalDisk -computername $strComputer -Filter “DriveType = 3"
foreach ($objdisk in $colDisks)
$c.Cells.Item($intRow, 1) = $strComputer.ToUpper()
$c.Cells.Item($intRow, 2) = $objDisk.DeviceID

Can I save a single image as several file names in one go.

I know this sounds like an unsual question, but I want to take an image (say a logo) and save that image multiple times (could be 1000 times), but each time as a different file name. ( I have a commercial reason why I dont want that image to be named the same for each entry to a database.)
I already have the database of filenames, but do not want to "save as" 1000 times in terms of my time.
So is there a way to take an image and then "save as" then apply up to 1000 file names, so they are all saved in one go.
I do know these images will all look the same.
thanks

Hi,
No, this is not possible in PSE.
Thanks/ Tarun

Action which saves incremental versions of the current file name.

I have several folders of PNG files I want to hue to differnt colours and then save a version in each colour.
I sucessfuly recorded an action that makes the hue adjustments and saves files, the problem I'm having is the action uses the name and location of the file I used when recording the action.
When it saves each file I'd like it to keep the current file name and add a suffix if needs be. File-1.png, File-2.png etc.
I'm using CS5.
Any advice would be brilliant.
Thanks.

Use the image processor script and remove the save steps from your action.

No, you can save directly to a disc image by doing the following:
1. Choose Build & Format when you're ready to make the disc.
2. In the General tab of the Build & Format window, you'll see a section for Destination. The output device here probably defaults to your DVD writer. Change it to "Hard Drive". Now, the output format item will become active, and likely defaults to ".img"
3. Perform the Build & Format, and when it finishes you'll have an .img file which you can burn to disc using Disk Utility, Toast, or any other program that can burn from a disc image.

File Save dialog box not showing correct file name while saving file

hi
Currently, after the Submit button is hit, the File Save dialog box is displayed. If the user saves the file and then opens it then the output appears correct however if the user chooses to open the file without saving on the local machine then the correct viewer is not used to display the file. The name of the file is defaulted as qotSCopPrint.jsp and the default file viewer for jsp files is chosen to view the file. The format of the file is obviously not text (it is either pdf or rtf) so the output shows binary characters.

data : v_repid like sy-repid.
parameters : p_file like rlgrap-filename.

v_repid = sy-repid.

Why can't I save a form under the same file name with multiple signatures

I have a form the requires several signature but after the first signature is placed and the form is saved (the lock document is not activated) when the form is opened again and the next signature is added the form now can't be saved under the same name. Why?

Oh your good....you've been doing this TOO long.....I give you THE COOKIE!!!
Yes I had explore open and minimized "in preview mode"...you know come to think about it this "preview mode" may be the reason I've had trouble saving other documents....wow....you get TWO COOKIES....

"Save as..." window - file name bug

http://forums.adobe.com/message/3030230
I have the same problem.
I'm using Windows XP SP3 Professional (x86). Audition version 3.0, build 7283.0. My copy is registered.
Some additional notes:
File format doesn't matter; I've tried WAV, MP3 and FLAC.
I have tried reinstalling Audition. I uninstalled it via a program called Revo Uninstaller. I've searched through the registry after uninstallation, and could not find any leftover keys or values.
I'm not using any visual themes. The Windows service "Themes" is disabled.
Any idea how to solve this?

You've provided good information in describing your situation, thanks. There's more likelihood that this is a Windows or graphics driver problem than with Audition. Many of us run it on XP sp3 with great success. I would recommend the following:
--make sure all Windows updates are current
--check your graphics card for an updated driver
--less likely to address this specific problem, but it can't hurt, is to install the Audition 3.01 update available here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=92&platform=Windows. This update is highly recommended anyway.
Should you have success with any of these options, please report which was helpful!
