Automatic file save on upload

I have created a site through Site Manager, and selected Automatically upload files on Save in the Server section.
After initially creating the site, this works fine. However, once I exit Dreamweaver and restart working on the project, this function seems to be hit and miss.
I have made sure that I am connected to my server through the Files panel, but most of the time I end up having to manually Put the files on the server. I have tried Synchronize, and it recognizes the changes I have made, but still the auto upload feature does not work.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I am using Dreamweaver CC 2014.

This may not be the answer you had hoped for but IMO the auto upload feature on save is dangerous and should be permanently deactivated in DW. It's just too easy to make mistakes with this kind of workflow. It takes no time at all to hit Ctrl+S to save a document and Ctrl+Shift+U to upload it.

File save or upload

I have an app that takes a snapshot of the user from their
webcam. I would like to be able to then save that bitmap/jpg to the
server.
I dont like the filereference.save and .upload as the user
has to save the image to their computer before I could upload it.
I would like just a seemless transfer once the user clicks
the Take Pic button.
Thanks

Not sure, it looks like a Windows tweak. The file open dialog box is a Windows feature. Does this happen on other programs?? You can try to click the last icon on top, change the view to '''Details''', click the '''Name''' header, then the '''Type''' column header until '''File Folder''' comes on top alphabetically.

Save an uploaded file in struts 2.0

Hi
I am working on the video hosting website where users can upload videos, I am able to save the uploaded file if I give the absolute path in my java file where as when I think it will be a better idea if I can use a relative path, because when I will be uploading the file on the web server than I cant use the absolute path, does any one know how to make the path relative in case of struts ?
     private File upload;
     private String uploadContentType;
     private String uploadFileName;
     private String caption;
     public String execute() throws Exception{
          try {
               String fullFileName = "c:/projectTest/videosDirectory/sample.avi";
               File theFile = new File(fullFileName");
               System.out.println(fullFileName);
               FileUtils.copyFile(upload, theFile);
          } catch (Exception e) {
               addActionError(e.getMessage());
               return INPUT;
          return SUCCESS;
{code}
I want the variable fullFileName as "/videosDirectory" so that it can automatically compute the path and save the file. or is there any better way ?
Any help highly appreciated.

In file paths, a relative path is relative to the current working directory. And in an application server, the current working directory isn't related to your application (or any of the other applications) in any way. So that's unlikely to be what you want.
So, relative to what?

Hi jeffrey sg,
When you convert a file, it's automatically stored in your Acrobat.com online account. You can download your files by following these steps:
Log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files.
Select the file or files that you want to download.
Click Download at the top of the Files list. Your files will be downloaded to the Downloads folder on your computer.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,

SharePoint Library - If I save file from Excel File Save As - then I always get "File already exists. Do you want to replace it?" - Upload works fine though.

Hi there,
In my SP 2010 document library - When I try to save an Excel file from File > Save As menu to the document library it always prompts me "File already exists. Do you want to replace it?" even though the file does not exist in that document library.
To the same document library - if I upload a file then it accepts it all fine.
Any clues why I cannot save files using File > Save As menu?
Thanks.

Hi,
As I understand, the notification pops up when you save an excel file to SharePoint library, while when directly upload file to library, there is no wrong.
Please confirm if the issue occurs to other machines.
Please open Microsoft Office Upload Center on the issue machine, then click settings, clear cache via checking Delete files from the Office Document Cache when they are closed.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/office-document-cache-settings-HA010388664.aspx
If the issue occurs to client, I’d recommend you also ask the question in Excel forum:

Save the uploaded file in a different name ?

Has anyone used the com.oreilly.MultipartRequest Class
which is used to upload a file to a directory.I am able to that
fine.I now need a way to save the uploaded file to a different name
when it gets saved in its destination.I am not sure if com.oreilly.MultipartRequest class has a feature or not.Can
anyone help me out of this please.

you can create files with your own name.
in temp directory, orielly package creates all the files you uploaded from the client.
create FileInputStream of file you need , create FileOutputStream with your new name and write the content to it.
here is some code,
MultipartRequest multi = new MultipartRequest(req,tempUserFile.getAbsolutePath(),100*1024*1024); // current dir
          Enumeration files = multi.getFileNames(); // Collection of files
          // it sends to you with the form
          String fileName=null;
          String name =null;
          while(files.hasMoreElements())
               name = (String)files.nextElement();
               File f = multi.getFile(name);
               fileName = multi.getFilesystemName(name);
               FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream//create outputstreamwith your new name
now dump contents of inputstream to outputstream.
hope this helps.

Can I save a file to the Mac HD and, automatically, also save it to Dropbox?, Can I save a file to the Mac HD and, automatically, also save it to Dropbox?

Hi everyone,
Can I save a file to the Mac HD and, automatically, also save it to Dropbox (or another cloud-based storage)?
What I would like to do is to have my Mac HD duplicated in the Cloud?
Is this possible?
Many thanks!
Bryan

Dear dwb
Many thanks for responding!
I am not that technical and I would be grateful if you could continue to help, please.
On the first bit - the Dropbox folder - this I understand - I have been using Dropbox for a number of months and it is fine.
The linking folders outside Dropbox does sound like it is what I would like to do but I don't know how to do it!
May I give an example?
If I have a folder on my Mac HD in Documents entitled "Tax" (nightmare!!) and in the folder I have some subfolders (e.g. 2011, 2012 and 2013) and in the subfolders I have files such as "Propeties", "Travel Days", "Interest", etc.
I would like to duplicate this folder (Tax) and all of its subfolders and files in Dropbox and AUTOMATICALLY update the Dropbox files everytime I update the file on the HD.
Is this possible with Symlink? And if so, how do I do it?
I really appreciate your help!!
Many thanks,
Bryan

When I try to File Save As on an .FLV movie, Firefox automatically changes the filetype to .mp4 while Chrome for instance retains the .FLV file type. I wanted to see why this is and how it can be fixed to work similarly to Chrome. Thanks.

When I try to File > Save As on an .FLV movie, Firefox automatically changes the filetype to .mp4 while Chrome for instance retains the .FLV file type. I wanted to see why this is and how it can be fixed to work similarly to Chrome. Thanks.

If that file is an FLV file then Firefox should save it as such and not change the file extension.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Automatically open, save and close excel?

I need import data from Excel to SQL.
Now, I use tSQL to directly read the excel files and transform to the SQL table.
As the user Excel is not a good format for SQL to read, I need use formula to transform the excel to be a SQL readable format.
Now, I add a sheet to copy the data from the sheet which user input the data and then ask the user to copy the excel to a specific location for import.
However, this will make the data in the excel double and result a large excel file.
I am thinking if it is possible to create a excel to use formula to copy the data from another excel.
Then, I need find some method to open that excel, let the content refresh from the source excel, save and close it.
Then I can directly use this excel for data import.
Is there any simple way to do so? I don't know marco much...
Ivan

No formula could do this (Automatically open, save and close excel).
You need to recode a marco or write a macro. Why donot you ask in msdn?
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
example:
Sub auto_open()

End Sub
Sub
wswx() If Not ThisWorkbook.Saved
Then ThisWorkbook.Save
ThisWorkbook.Close

Save As Dialog Different on Exit vs. File - Save As...

I started by opening a raw file through Camera Raw into a 16 bits/channel document. My intent was to edit it a little and save as a JPEG.
Photoshop CS5 Adobe added the ability to save a 16 bits/channel document as a JPEG, without first having to convert to 8 bits/channel. BRAVO Adobe! It's been great.
However that functionality is specifically missing if one tries to exit Photoshop CS5 with an unsaved document. Quite a lot of stuff is missing from the Save dialog that pops up there, actually. It's like some kind of minimalist version. Why?
If I edit a 16 bits/channel document and try to exit before saving, this is the dialog it puts up:
However, File - Save As yields this dialog:
-Noel

Thanks for clarifying.
I understand your thinking - you're trying to watch out for the newbie user and trying not to lose his/her layers, etc.
The thing is, the way it is now makes it just a bit harder for a power-user who knows what he's doing to use Photoshop. I've always disliked features that dumb systems down in the guise of protecting the less technical user at the expense of power. This is not Photoshop Elements, after all!
My case in point: I opened a raw file, Camera Raw automatically applied the settings I had chosen and which the software had stored, I downsized the opened image, and wanted to save it as a JPEG. It had no layers or other "fancy" attributes other than the fact that I always open raw files into 16 bits/channel depth (and I wouldn't want to change THAT default). Since I don't, as a habit, leave applications open, I thought I would just close Photoshop and save the JPEG on the way out. The dialog shown above defaulted to PSD, as I expected, but simply didn't allow me the choice to change it to JPEG. So instead of just being able to blaze through the work in the quickest way, I had to cancel that dialog, choose File - Save As, then exit...
Break in concentration and extra steps for the user who knows what he's doing.
It seems to me that the act of prompting him on exit with a Save As dialog is all the notification needed that document information could be lost, and the user actively changing to another (lossy) format is the user's own confirmation that he/she knows what he/she is about to do.
The more powerful Save As dialog just as it is today would be a perfect match for this. It's a logical outgrowth of Save As A Copy, and the new feature where you're now allowing Save As JPEG directly from a 16 bit file. By using the same dialog at the same time as making the product more powerful, you could simplify the implementation and save some future maintenance cost.

Prevent File Save Dialog appearing?

I have been using Excel 2010 to create Word Documents and then use .SaveAs to save the newly created file without any issues
When I moved to Office 2013 the same code now presents a File Save dialog box.
I have researched the issue and can find no way to prevent the Dialog appearing (and worse regardless of the user selection the Excel code crashes)
The following is a simplified version of the troublesome code
Sub TestWordSaveAs2()
Dim InvoiceProFormaFileName As Variant
Dim NewFileName As String
Dim WordApplication As Object
Dim WordDoc As Object
' Prompt for a word document
InvoiceProFormaFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Word Documents, *.docx", Title:="Any Word File", MultiSelect:=False)
Set WordApplication = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set WordDoc = WordApplication.Documents.Open(InvoiceProFormaFileName) ' Open the pro-forma invoice
' Create a new name
NewFileName = Replace(InvoiceProFormaFileName, ".docx", "2.docx")
WordDoc.SaveAs2 Filename:=NewFileName, FileFormat:=16, AddtoRecentFiles:=False ' <======= this line Shows the File Save Dialog and then fails
WordDoc.Close SaveChanges:=0 ' wdDoNotSaveChanges
' Finished with the Word Application so can close
WordApplication.Quit
End Sub
Thank you in advance

Hi,
I have create a doc file and a excel file in my pc, after I run the code you have provided ,and choose the doc file I just created, it runs without any save dialog. And My Office is Pro Plus 2013 .
I have upload my sample to OneDrive, you can download it here:
http://1drv.ms/1DhnMe5
When you run this sample, will this show the save dialog again ?
To narrow down this issue, can you create a new empty word and choose it in the excel, does it will happen again? if it is convenient, can you share the doc file you're using? Have you update your office ?

Windows File Save dialog freezes a virtual folder

We have a shell namespace extension that presents a remote document repository as a virtual folder in the Desktop folder. When the File Save dialog box is opened from within Adobe Reader or Acrobat version 9, our virtual folder appears inactivated. Even though the common dialog box displays the items in the folder, it is not possible to select any of the items, e.g., using a mouse click or key code press.
Note that the same common dialog when running in open mode works fine. Our virtual folder is enabled, and an item can be selected for the Open action. It appears that the problem shows up only when the Save dialog runs from within Adobe Reader 9 or Acrobat 9.
The problem appears to be limited to Windows 7 and Vista. XP does not have the problem.
I would like to know why and how the save dialog gets disabled, and would like to know how to prevent the dialog from disabling the virtual folder.

Hi,
I have followed the example you mentioned to save a picture to the folder shortcut, and the name won't change to the shortcut. Also the picture would be saved into the original folder.
Here is the steps I did:
1. Create a folder named New folder in My documents:
2. Select it and then press ctrl + C and right-click on destop choose paste shortcut(named New folder-Shortcut);
3. Right-click on a picture in one webpage then open the save picture as dialog box;
4. Navigate to the desktop folder shortcut and double-click into it, the file name field won't change;
5. My machine is Windows 7 Enterprise SP1.
Would you please tell some more details on how you saved the picture?
In addition, there might be some other applications triggered this action, we may take a look with process monitor:
The download link here:

And here is a blog talking about how to use it:

If possible, please redo the action, then upload the result into onedrive and paste the link here.

File Save As versus Ctrl+Shift+S

Is there a way to make the menu function File>Save As and the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+S behave the same exact way.
When using the menus, the file automatically opens with the new name. It also automatically makes it a PSD file (if something photoshoppy has been done to it). It also doesn't make it a copy.
When using the keyboard, you have to select the file type from the list. It doesn't automatically open the file with the new name (frustrating if you are still editing). And it always makes it a copy.
Is there a setting I have turned on or off? This behaviour runs through the CS5 suite, Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator.
Please send any suggestions or tips to correct this. It is so much easier to use the keyboard short cuts but takes longer due to the behaviour.
Thanks,
Gilley Estes
Adobe CS5 Suite

Thank you for the responses. I suspect I haven't explained the situation very well. My first detailed explanation was deleted (by me after accidentally hitting Ctrl+A then delete; there isn't an undo in this forum...).
Let say for example I have opened a JPG called Image_Tree.jpg. I do some photoshoppy things to it, like add a layer and an effect.
If I press Ctrl+Shift+A, the Save As dialog opens. I change the file name to Image_Tree_Modified but the file type remains at JPG. I have to manually select PSD. It also automatically makes it a COPY. So I have to delete the word COPY from the file name. After clicking Save (or pressing Enter), my JPG file is still the one open in Photoshop. It doesn't automatically open the newly saved PSD file. I have to close the JPG and open the PSD. This can be a problem if I continue making edits to the image and accidentally press Ctrl+S without first opening the new PSD file. It overwrites the JPG file with my changes.
Now taking the same JPG file with the photoshoppy elements...
If I go to File>Save As, basically things behave in a way I would call normal. The file type is automatically set to PSD and the file IS NOT specified as a COPY. Also after clicking Save (or pressing Enter), my newly saved PSD file is automatically opened for me to continue working on it.
Maybe it is just me but I would expect the behavior between File>Save As and Ctrl+Shift+S to be exactly the same and they aren't. This is true for the products across the CS5 suite. Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator.
I have tweaked a few keyboard settings but only to make some hotkeys. For example, Ctrl+Shift+C is Image Crop on my computer. Ctrl+Q is Image Trim. Other than that, I have left the system the same as it was out of the box. In fact I had to replace my personal settings one time by renaming a file then launching Photoshop again. This undid all my personal settings. The only ones I have reset are the one mentioned above.
I hope this very long response (sorry for the length) helps explain better what I am noticing and asking.
Thanks again for the responses and any help.
