Ask for the file name when printing on XP x64

I have just installed my CS3 on Windows XP x64. Installation was successful and all is working fine. But there are few things which are working differently and I can not find any way to fix it.
One of the problems I have is that I can not have it so that I will be asked for the name of the PDF file created. It simply goes through and allocates name of the file used for printing. It happens for all applications i.e. Word, Excel, InDesign, Corel. In my automatic processes I realy need to be prompted for the file name / location. Is it possible to modify some settings to have it under XP x64 ??? I hope it is.
Thanks for advise.
Tony

I would like to add few details which may help to find the source of the problem.
When I will select Adobe PDF as a printer, then click on Properties and select
Prompt for Adobe PDF filename
in Adobe PDF Output Folder then printing starts and will not progress at all. If I will change the Adobe PDF Output Folder to local it prints OK but is not asking for the file name / destination.
How I can have it printing and asking for the file name / destination ? Or maybe on XP x64 it is not possible at all ?
Regards,
Tony

Can I include the FILE NAME when printing from Bridge?

I'm a commercial photographer. I shoot with my camera tethered to a Mac laptop to view images immediately as I shoot. I use Bridge to view these images.
As I shoot, we save the file by product name, and then print proofs immediately. I need to include the File Name on these prints. Is
there a way for me to do this directly from Bridge? If not, can you think of a way using Photoshop? Or anything else? Lightroom?

Guessing you are using Bridge CS4 you could use the Adobe Output module for
this. It is reachable through a seperate workspace in the top menu right
side or the left side top menu the icon most right.
You can create different lay outs as a PDF with this but for you it should
be one per page and select the filename (with or without extension). Just
explore the posibilities. For CS4 you could use the updated Output Module.
If on CS3 you could use the contact sheet script for Photoshop that in
Bridge can be reached by the menu Tools / Photoshop / contactsheet. This
contactsheet script is also usable for CS4, it is on the Goodies install
disk for PSCS4

When I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

Make sure that '''''Print to File''''' isn't selected in the native print dialog box ''(see screenshot below)'' middle-right, and make sure your Printer is selected at the top of that dialog box.
''I'm a little confused why an email attachment would need to go directly to the printer, but that's what you asked about.''

I'm trying to "open"-get to a site--Ichoose Firefox as application; the next screen is another appication and asks for a file name. What do I do? I never get any further.

I'm trying to get to "www.enoriver.org." A window appears asking me to choose an application--I choose Firefox. Then another window opens titled "Another Application" and asks for a file name at the botto0m of page. I choose Firefox from the list of files, paste it into the bar, hit "enter"--nothing happens. What do I do?

I want to download the new updates I think to the 10.9 but our mac was given to us and when it comes to the last page it asks for the user name and password but this mac was wiped clean. How do I find out this info so I can get iPhoto? To be honest I'm not even sure what type of Mac I have and don't know how to find out what kind it is
I'd also like to make address labels and don't know where to find that either

You would make address lables with the Contacts app.
If you don't have the user name and password used to set up the machine then you need to purchase the apps for yourself.

When I open the "Save Page As" window, the drop-down box for the file name shows files that were saved long ago. This is not cleared by any "clear history" function that I can find. How do I clear this?

Hello.
I believe this is a Windows related issue, since it's the windows Save File manager we're talking about here (right?). You should contact Microsoft for help on that one, I believe. You'd expect to be able to delete the entries by simply tapping ''Delete'' on your keyboard when they are focused (that's how it goes for deleting specific form autocomplete entries in Firefox), but I haven't tried that.
I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

How do I get the file name to print up closer to a horizontal photo?

Kind of a nit-picking question, but here goes anyway:
I use Lightroom's Print module to create contact sheets (three rows by three columns). I check the "Photo Info" check box and select "Filename" to have the file names printed with each photo. When the photo is shot vertically, the file name prints at the lower edge of the photo, as you would expect. However, when the photo is shot horizontally, the file name still prints down in the same place where it would print if the photo were vertical. That can be confusing because if the next photo down on the sheet is vertical, a file name can end up being much closer to the vertical photo below it--to which it is completely unrelated--than to the horizontal photo above it, to which it actually refers.
Is there any way to get Lightroom to print file names closer to horizontal photos?

Thanks to both of you for your speedy responses. Making all the shots horizontal or vertical (i. e., unchecking the "Rotate to Fit" box on the right) is not what I want. Increasing the vertical spacing is a possibility, but that'll make the vertical shots smaller. There's a program called "ImageBuddy" which does exactly what I want LIghtroom to do in this instance: print the filenames of only the horizontal shots higher and therefore closer to the photos to which they refer. It's quite cheap, but I'd rather not use Lightroom for everything else and ImageBuddy just for contact sheets, so if anybody knows of a way to do what I want to do within Lightroom, please do clue me in.

Yosemite 10.10.2 server app. FTP help. I have a program running in my local server enviroment that wants to FTP to my mac folder. It asks for the server , name, password, port and path. what are they?

So I have set up a localhost area in my Mac. I have the new server.app and I am running yosemite 10.10.2 .
I have a program running in my local server enviroment that wants to FTP to my mac .
It asks for the server , name, password, port and path. what are they?
I am pretty certain that the Serveris "localhost",
Name is my macs name (like my-mac-min)
password is "my login password"
and they suggest port 21.
But what is the file path, lets just say my site is set up http://localhost/siteftp and is actually at my Users/Sites/siteftp folder.
Why cant this program connect to the mac.
Is it because they are both operating in the same localhost enviroment,
could it be my folder permissions are not correct on siteftp folder?
Help please !

I tried turning the computer off and then back on. The alerts don't show the notice to update as resolved. Hopefully this is not a problem or an indicator or another problem. Should I ignore or reload 10.10.1 from the app store to trigger a resolved check in a green circle?
Interesting that I had to buy server software after my free Yosemite download. I would have hoped that the two pieces of software would have gone together without any complication. It is not positive to end up buying a problem. Ah well, time to move on.

Dose middle tier installation asks for the instance name?

Dose middle tier installation asks for the instance name?
If yes, should it be same as the infrastructure instance name?

Dose middle tier installation asks for the instance name?It should, and the name is not the same as infrastructure. Infrastructure and Midtier are different installations and different Oracle homes, in fact they could be installed on different machines.
In Application Server terminology, an "Instance" is related to an "Installation", the difference is that an installation is the set of files installed into an Oracle home and an instance is the set of processes associated with those files.

You can keep trying to restore the device from backup until you remember the password. If you're having trouble, try:
Leaving the password field blank
Your Apple ID password
Your computer account password, if you have one
Email passwords you may have used
Your Wi-Fi network password
Website passwords you may have used
A password for hard-disk encryption software, if you use it

How can I prevent Firefox from cutting off the title of a webpage for use as a file name when printing/saving as PDF if there's a / in it?

Like it says in the question - when I try to print/save a webpage as a PDF, Firefox (version 36.0, Windows 8.1 64bit, German) usually uses the page's title as the file name. Slashes are, of course, not allowed in file names, but instead of just leaving leaving it out or replacing it with a hyphen, the title is cut off and everything before the last slash is gone, which in some cases results in very odd and misleading file names.
Is this a known bug? I couldn't find anything. So I'm just wondering if there's either going to be a fix anytime soon, or whether there is a simpler solution than to generate a different title sans slashes specifically for Firefox users.
Thanks in advance for Your help!

There is more than one proxy type.<br />
Only an anonymous proxy will hide the IP and build two connections, one between you and the proxy and a second connection between the proxy and the website that uses an IP from that proxy.<br />
A normal proxy merely passes all traffic without affecting it, so websites see your IP in such a case.

Need script to check for duplicate file names when copying a folder

Hello,
I am a new applescript user trying to write what I believe should be a simple script. I was planning on using the "add-new item alert" script as a template.
Basically I have people copying folders of photos into a library folder, but I don't want the Finder to copy the photo if it already exists in the library. The images in the library are organized into subfolders.
I need a script that will check all the file names in the new folder against all the file names in the library, and NOT add the new one if it already exists.
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
C

I have a script that "kind of" works. The only problem I've seen is that it gets confused when filenames contain characters that are fine in Macland but not good in Unixland. Forward slashes are a good example of this.
In this case I have a folder in my home named "copytest" Inside copytest are two folders:
Source (containing the images to be added)
Dest (My existing library of images)
It also assumes that the folder of images to be added contains no sub-folders. Hope this helps.
tell application "Finder"
set theSource to folder "source" of folder "copytest" of home
set imagesToBeCopied to name of every file of theSource
end tell
repeat with theFile in imagesToBeCopied
try
if (do shell script "find -r ~/copytest/dest -name " & quoted form of (theFile as string)) is not equal to "" then
--The file exists. Don't copy it
else
--the file doesn't already exist. Copy it.
end if
on error
return "Failed while trying to check for existence of a file"
end try
end repeat

Can we have . inbetween the file name when we use WEB.SHOW_DOCUM

i am using froms 10 g
i have 2 buttons .on clicking those buttons i have to open a csv files.
for that i have used WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT in button Pressed.
the name of the csv files is as follows
1. ICCM_PAK_MLP_IN1CE_15092006_ReceptionSDB.csv
2. ICCM_PAK_MLP.tar.gz_ReceptionSDB.csv
the 1 st button will open the first file and the second will open the second .csv file
On pressing the button 1 it opens the first csv file ICCM_PAK_MLP_IN1CE_15092006_ReceptionSDB.csv
correctly.
but the problem is ,On pressing the button 2 is not opening the file whereas it pop ups a window asking do you want to extract the zip file if i say yes it is not doing anything.
i think the problem is with the csv file name
ICCM_PAK_MLP.tar.gz_ReceptionSDB.csv
can we have . inbetween the file name i thk it is considering the .tar which is inbetween the file name as file type
anyone please advise

"can we have . inbetween the file name i thk it is considering the .tar which is inbetween the file name as file type"
I believe you found the answer to your question. Why not try removing the . in the filename? It would be faster than asking.

CS3&CS4 dosen't show file name when printing to a rip

Need help. I'm using the Xitron Rip. It appears that when I use Adobe CS3 and CS4 to output files to this rip, the filename doesn't appear in the que. It shows the printer type file name instead.
eg. : 4CTP-175Lpi-AT on 'LaserWriter
Any ideas?. I don't have this problem with CS2.

Sounds like you are using different settings. The file name would usually only appear if it is sent as a file to the printer, i.e. a pre-converted PS/PDF file. Otherwise it is simply a spool job with no specifics attached to it. Perhaps you changed the separation settings to be handled by Illu and it is converting the files?
