A question about Auto Save, Versions and Preview.

I haven't upgraded to Lion (yet?). I'm trying to understand what impact Lion will have on my workflow.
Do I understand right that it is not possible to turn off Lion's Auto Save?
And that the autosavings are stored in a hidden sqlLite data base?
I use Preview for... err... previewing files (PDFs and image files). Nothing I open (preview) in Preview I save.
Is Lion's Auto Save going to save every file I take a look at in Preview?

The idea of Versions looks good to me, it certainly is not a 'con to upgrade'. The amount of disk space it uses and where (on which disk) is a bit of a concern to me. But by the time the applications I work with implement this feature that probably will be sorted out.
there's more to upgrading though.
Not so much on topic:
I do want to upgrade. Eventually. Although I do worry about the direction Apple are heading in, I don't want to get stuck in the past.
I'm disappointed AirDrop is not for my computers. And the treatment Spaces and Exposé got really withholds me of upgrading any time soon. Maybe a third party developer dives into this matter. Working with an external display connected to notebooks has changed in Lion and is not particularly handy for everyone. (While using the external display only, opening the lid of the notebook in Lion turns on the display of the notebook. This was not the case before Lion.)

  • TUTORIAL: Disable Auto Save, Versions and bring back Save As

    1. Quit the app(s) you want to configure.
    2. Launch Terminal.
    3. Paste the command below in the Terminal window, then replace 'name of app' with the name of whatever app you want to configure (e.g. 'textedit'), before hitting Enter:
    defaults write -app 'name of app' ApplePersistence -bool no
    Alternatively, you can configure all apps at once with the following command:
    defaults write -g ApplePersistence -bool no
    I don't recommend doing this, though, because, for some reason, it slows down the login process considerably.
    For TextEdit only, you also need to run another command, as a workaround for errors that prevents it from functioning correctly:
    defaults write -app textedit AutosavingDelay -int 0
    4. Relaunch the app(s).
    5. Enjoy you considerably less infuriating Mac!
    If you don't see any changes, a relogin will in most cases do the trick (if not, the app probably uses a non-standard saving mechanism).
    Please note: Although this brings back Save As in most apps, this is sadly not the case with Preview and iWork.
    To undo any of the above commands, run:
    defaults delete -app 'name of app' ApplePersistence
    defaults delete -g ApplePersistence
    defaults delete -app textedit AutosavingDelay
    P.S. If you want to remove data already stored by Versions, you need to delete the hidden .DocumentRevisions-V100 folder in the root directory of your disk(s).

    Why?
    Because the "Ask to keep changes when closing documents" setting doesn't actually turn off Auto Save and can cause loss of data.
    Because the Save As "feature" in Mountain Lion, isn't actually the traditional Save As that OS X had prior to Lion, but a useless, mock version that is likely to cause data loss.
    Because Apple still refuses to offer any way of disabling Versions.
    Or, in other words:

  • Want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but CS6 questions about Auto-Save need answers...

    Hi,
    I'm on Mountain Lion for all my "non-critical" work, but I'm still running the latest Snow Leopard on my main desktop machine, running CS6 Design & Web Premium. I've avoided the switch primarily because of the auto-save feature that Apple placed into ML. I haven't found a satisfactory answer anywhere on the web to this basic question...is auto-save a problem, as Apple implements it, with CS6 and working on images?
    In particular: 1. I work on very larger files, 4GB+ in size regularly, and I don't wan't the peformance hits associated with constant saving, 2. I make changes to images, downsizing them, croping, color corrections, etc. so that I can make jpg proofs for clients or myself. These are more "intermediary" images and not intended to be saved. I don't want to downsample an image, flatten it to creat a jpg for proof and have it overwrite the original image layered, high res by mistake. Does this happen with photoshop, or does Adobe avoid the auto-save that Apple uses?
    I have all the latest iOS gadgets and it's becoming quite cumbersome managing multiple sets of iCloud info, etc. without being on ML. I'd like to make the switch, but at the cost of losing work, etc. Can someone with experience on ML & CS6 give me any input in the matter? And, does this also apply to all the other Adobe apps in CS6? I'm constantly making minor changes and edits that I usually "undo" out of and don't want saved.
    Thanks.
    Craig

    So, in other words, photoshops behavior works the same, using save as..., etc. as it did under Snow Leopard? I should expect the auto-save behavior that occurs in apps like iPhone, etc., where i can actually lose the original because of the constant backups, etc.?
    Thanks.

  • Question about Auto Save and Versions

    Hi. I'm running the latest version of Yosemite — 10.10.2
    My Mac seems to be auto-saving documents, but when I click the down arrow on a document's title, I don't see the options to "Revert to Last Saved Version" or "Browse All Versions."
    Since the documents are being auto-saved, I would like to have the option of reverting and browsing saved versions. Does anyone know why I'm not seeing those options?
    Thanks!

    Glad that helped!
    Yes, I believe the way you described indeed worked in previous versions of OS X.
    Enjoy your Apple gear.

    You can but only in TextEdit and Preview and only if you have access to a Snow Leopard installation. Check out the link near the end of this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3745201?start=0&tstart=0 and then proceed at your own risk.

  • Question about auto packing

    Hello,
    as i saw the post about auto packing in delivery
    the config steps are described as follow
    1) Create the packing Material In MM01 of material Type 'VERP'
    2) Create packing Instructions from TA: POP1
    3) packing Determination in POF1 ... for MM Condition type is RCPT and for SD its is SHIP. So create condition records here.
    4) In Customization SPRO-> Logistic Execution-> Shipping-> Deliveries->Define Delivery Types
    In Delivery, there is Check box for automatic packing.
    First , i tried to create condition value in POF1 for SHIP as condition type and put my Packing instruction e.g. 233 into it.
    but it wont work in my delivery e.g. LF.
    secondly I tried to create in POF1 for ZVPA, with my Packing Instruction 233, and then it works in my delivery.
    So my question is, the condition type for HU/ Auto Packing, how are they connected to my documents/ processes e.g. I use OR as sales order, and LF as delivery.
    in the Picture below, i can see both condition type SHIP and ZVPA are using SHIP as acc.sequence. So which condition would be used when I create my delivery ? and how to configure that?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    this defined in custo:
    Click on maintain packing transaction profile and the select for instance 0002 Outbound delivery
    Here is defined what procedure determination will be used in entry field Determ. proc. for pkg intrs
    Then you define for this procedure what conditions will be available
    Select the procedure determination you defined in previous step and you maintain the conditions

  • Auto Save & Versions a bust ... bring back "Save As"

    Having upgrading my laptop to Lion and discovering that along with Auto Save and Versions comes the elimination of the Save As command and the inability to turn these new features off I will be reinstalling Snow Leopard and definitely not upgrading our household's other machines.
    The new scheme is cumbersome in it's insistence that I duplicate the document to give it a new name.
    I do not like the idea that previous drafts are accessible from inside the document by anyone who might access my machine.
    I do not like that new versions are created and saved without my say-so. I do not like that I am not asked to save/discard changes upon quitting.
    In short, the 248 great new features provide me little reason to upgrade but the 249th and 250th features are deal-breakers. Until they can be turned off I will not use Lion.

    File>Duplicate creates a new duplicate of the changed file. You then have to go back after you've duplicated, and "revert" the file or you will have two identical changed files. If you want to leave the original untouched, and forget to "revert" before you close the file, you're original file will be lost and your original file will be identical to your new "duplicate" file.

  • Two Question about GP on version CE 7.11

    Hi ,experts:
    Question 1:In our old system's workflow, a position named "secretary-
    general of Loan Committee" can distribute the task to the specific
    committee reviewers. After do that he also can change the reviewer, who
    got the task but hasn't any progress;to not do the task or add other
    reviewers to get the task. So we should do that with GP like this:
    there are three actions, action A action B and action C. The action A
    can assign several users to the action B and the action C, also the
    action A can change the users that have been assigned to the action B
    or the action C.
    Question 2:Familiar with the question 1, after one position finish the
    task and submit,he can call back it if the next position haven't do
    anything yet , and then he can rehandle the task and submit it again.
    So we should do that with GP like this: there are two actions , action
    A and action B, the action B is the next position of the action A, the
    user of the action A finished a task and submit it and he can call back
    or rehandle the task until the user of the action B accept his task.
    Are these 2 points above possiable in GP version 7.11? And it will be
    very kind of you to give us an example if GP can do this. further more,
    is there any doc of GP about it?
    Thank you very much!
    Best Regards!

  • Some question about mdm java api and portal content

    Hi Gurus,

    My question is regarding the relationship between MDM version and NW version:
    for example
    1.MDM5.5 JAVA api can be deployed to CE 7.11 server?
    2.MDM7.1 JAVA API can be deployed to CE 7.11 server? or can only be deployed to CE server.
    the same question for the MDM portal content.
    the possible dev environment  for our company would be:
    1.MDM7.1
    2.CE7.2(do we need another EP7 server for the UWL?)

  • Some questions about Unity 4.0 and IPC

    I have a couple of questions and I was looking for "real world" answers, not specific answers from the design guide.
    1.What is this bandwidth requirement between Exchange and Unity and what is it used for?
    2. What sort of issues would we experience if we placed the Unity UM Server at the Colo and placed the Exchange server at the customer premise; with a single T1 between the sites?
    3.What else is involved with a Unity UM install vs. a Unity VM install?
    4.Does the Unity UM and Exchange servers have to be running AD?
    5. Can Unity or the Exchange box be the Domain Controller? Or does it need to be a separate server?
    6. Where does a vm message get streamed from? The Unity server or the Exchange server?

    No you do not pay for FaceTime. It uses your WiFi network, so if you have access to WiFi it is free.
    There is no server required for FaceTime, it will use a direct device to device protocol.
    I can't answer the question about using phones in different countries as that will depend on if you buy a phone that is locked to a carrier.
    If you buy a phone in Germany and it is locked to a German phone network then it will most likely not work with a SIM from Turkey. You would need to buy an unlocked phone which are very expensive as they do not have any carrier subsidy applied to the price.

  • Question about auto-saving multiple files with the same template

    Is there any way to do this? The template will never change - but I will need to save it as a new file each time I open it. Just want to know if there is an automatic way to do this when the template is opened each time? Preferably numeric, starting from any number. I suppose I can just save each file myself - but as it gets up into the thousands of files - I'm not going to want to.
    It would be really cool if it could auto-save the file, assign it a number, and then place that number in the top corner of the saved document.
    If anyone can help - let me know. C.

    OK. First add a text field to the document, say "text1". You probably want it to be read-only. You can duplicate it to all pages if needed. Then open the template document, open the interactive JavaScript console (Ctrl+J), and enter the following code:
    // Interactive Console JavaScript
    // Get the folder this file is in
    var folder = path.replace(documentFileName, "");
    // Save multiple copies (from 1 to 9)
    // with the number in the text field
    for (var i = 1; i < 10; i += 1) {
        getField("text1").value = i;
        saveAs(folder + "template" + i + ".pdf");
    After you paste the code, highlight the lines and press Ctrl+Enter (or the Enter key on the numeric keypad) and Acrobat will save multiple copies to the same folder as the template. Replace "text1" with the name of the field you've set up and "template" with the name you want the copies to have before the number.

  • Question about Auto Loan...

    I've had 5 auto loans in my life (in the last 17 years, 1 used, 4 new) all has been paid on time, never late, never repo. I filed for BK7 in April and discharged last month including my auto loan which I still pay for (It's almost paid off). I wonder if Bank use credit score and/or auto score? I mean I never heard of Auto score before someone brought that up which is different. How does that work exactly?Thanks y'all

    From what I understand the auto versions of FICO weighs past auto loans more than say your FICO 8 score.  So the better your auto loans are on your reports, paid, no lates, no repos, then your auto score should be ok.  If you're shopping for a new auto loan, some banks may use the auto version and some may not.  Also there are different versions of the auto score.
